[edit] On editing
"I edit regularly in the field of animal rights and am a founding member of the animal rights wikiproject. This despite the fact I strongly disagree with animal rights as a philosophy. Yet I have the trust of all the pro-animal rights members because they have seen that I am as quick to add sourced material I come across that could be seen as pro-rights as I am to add criticism. This is the key to earning trust and respect of other editors. It can be tough, sometimes, adding stuff that you personally believe to be wrong, but thats what really NPOV editing is."[1] - Rockpocket

The Original Barnstar |
| Well, here's another one to add to the barn. Tyrenius, you have done such an awesome job in admin tasks and the encylopedic aspect of the project. Without any question, you are one of the more valued contributors to the project. You are one of the best, and I hope you keep it up. Yanksox 18:48, 20 August 2006 (UTC) |

Defender of the Wiki |
| For your recent very thoughtful comments on WP:AN/I regarding publicgirluk ++Lar: t/c 03:39, 28 August 2006 (UTC) |
- Well, hell, I came hither to bestow a similar barnstar but have once more been outdone by my fellow libertarian. No matter; you'll surely have appreciated from the AN/I discussion that many of us think your contributions apropos of publicgirluk to have been altogether perspicacious and, for that matter, ahead of their Wikitime.

The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar |
| For all your help, and for being an example of civility and intelligence in a time when these qualities seem less regarded than in previous times. Or maybe I'm just getting old. Thank you. John 04:35, 20 July 2007 (UTC) |

The Surreal Barnstar |
| To Tyrenius, for all the very great work and thought you have put in, to ensure that an article is not deleted, even though the only thing which just about everybody involved with it agrees on is that it isn't a very good article, but has survived deletion repeatedly and become a POV-magnet. And maybe sown the seeds for making it a useful article. Keep up the good work! John (talk) 05:15, 3 March 2008 (UTC) and BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 06:16, 3 March 2008 (UTC) |

[edit] Editing tip for newcomers
Some of the coding on Wiki is difficult, or other things like categories might not be easy to discover. Find another article similar to the one you're working on, click the edit button, then copy the relevant code, categories, stub notice or whatever, and paste it into your own article, changing the text where relevant. You can do this for inserting pictures into an article as well.
