Hey Panini, this Barnstar is the result for a lot of the hard work you've put into the the Video Game WikiProject espicially with Nintendo. Despite the fact we joined around the same time, you have excelled further than I can ever dream of with Wikipedia, getting GAs and DYKs (it's really impressive)! Hopefully we can collaborate more on future projects. CaptainGalaxy 20:12, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for being such a friendly person and a good editor. You gave me my first ever barnstar, and it was for a game that I really enjoyed my time with - Super Mario Bros. 35! I hope you continue to be a passionate editor like me. Hockeycatcat (talk) 09:00, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
  The Writer's Barnstar
Hey, this is Ramesty here. Just want to say thanks for messaging me and also for the work you have done on the Paper Mario series. I had wanted to get the series as a main article for awhile, but everyone at the time (I was fifteen) thought it fitted better under "spinoffs" with the rest of the other Mario RPGs. I thought maybe that when enough Paper Mario games were made that it would get its own article (in fact I thought it already had enough [6 games at the time]), but apparently not. It took Origami King and your help to move it up to where it is, so I thank you for that. If you compare edits, there is a two year space between my last one on the page and your first one (with only two others in between)! I guess I gave up at the time, mainly because of time reasons (I am going to graduate high school this September), and also because of the work it takes. I had to use Wikipedia's help desk several times to figure out what makes an article good, how to correctly setup a page, etc. And some of that I have forgotten. There are still projects I'd like to do on Wikipedia, but for now I will have to save them for later. I encourage you to keep working on articles if you can, especially Mario and Nintendo related ones. Thanks again for taking interest and even noticing that I worked on it. I'll read it in the next couple of days and see what you've done with it. If there's anything else, just message! Ramesty (talk) 19:10, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for organizing the userboxes on my userpage. I had just gone to my userpage and noticed that someone had organized them for me. I checked the history and in the edit summary, you said that you organized it for me, if I didn't mind (which I dont).

I realise that I never properly thanked you for your help on helping make Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash become a GA Article back in February. It is my apologies that I didn't thank you sooner. Hopefully we can work together more in the future. CaptainGalaxy 15:04, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
  The Special Barnstar
I've been meaning to give you a barnstar for a long, long time, but I just couldn't find one suitable. Thank you for answering all of my questions and for being a close WikiFriend (is that a thing?). Whenever I come across a problem or question, I come to you first, and the Teahouse second. Thank you for striving to keep Wikipedia amazing.

For explaining to me how on earth I start Draft:Splatoon 3. I'm.. still a tad lost as to what info to start with but you've helped me get there. โ€• Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 01:30, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
  The Teamwork Barnstar
Thank you so much for working with me to make Splatoon 3 into a full article. Honestly, I probably would've either just given up or had the draft deleted because it was stale by 6 months and I couldn't figure out how to start if you hadn't helped. โ€• Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:35, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

For all of the GA and FA articles you have made on Nintendo games, especially Kirby Star Allies. I'd say keep up the good work, but it looks like you already have. QuicoleJR (talk) 00:09, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

  Wish I could have given you a Panini. They should add that if its there I couldn't find it. But this cookie is for you. SkyTheWolf (Talk) 17:22, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
  I wanted to give you a "Panini", but since none such exists. How about a "Pie" instead. Hey, at least there is alliteration then! โ™ฅTh78blue (talk)โ™ฅ 20:48, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 
You deserve a thank you!

I thought that you deserved something a bit extra for all of the amazing work you've done for the project.
I've nominated you for a gift from the Wikimedia Foundation! -- PerryPerryD Talk To Me 16:22, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
  Something to balance your diet out from all those paninis. Just wanted to say that I've only just seen your current userpage, and I love File:Panini! Emblem.png. The whole userspace design is great: nice to see you're able to reflect on your edits but I hope you're not beating yourself up too hard over any of those things. โ€” Bilorv (talk) 22:43, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Other kind words

Thank you

Yesterday, I was doing some vandalism patrol and I made a bunch of mistakes reverting edits that didn't look like good faith edits but in fact were. I've been feeling a bit discouraged and decided to give patrol a rest to stop making further mistakes. However, your essay on mistakes gave me hope for my future on Wikipedia. I just thought you would like to know that that essay is quite helpful.   Also, how are you able to make GAs and FAs? I assume it's a lot of hard work, but if you have any tips, those would be of great help. โคHistoryTheoristโค 00:20, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

Panini, Thank you for your great assistance on the wikipedia project. You have been an incredible editor, and a great trainer. I really appriciate your kindness, understanding, and willingness to help. I am greatful for your GA Reviews and advice. Thank you. I have decided to take a break on GA Reviewing until I am further experienced, as advised by ferret. once again, Thank you. PerryPerryD Talk To Me 14:24, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

Damn dirty commie!

Reeeeeeee!

God damn! Shipping! That had me rolling. You're a man of comedy class, I can tell. If only, if only Wikipedia had a few more like you, and maybe a few fewer bloodless old goats, if only. Much love! Joe (talk) 18:39, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
