Thanks for the response.
I do have a few extra inches of wire on most of these connections, so I could go back and twist a bit more and snip off the damaged portion if I want. On some, I might not need to twist any more, just snip off the damage.
The wire I'm using is 12 gage, so maybe it's not an issue, though. It's pretty rough-looking, as each serration on the jaws of the pliers caused a nick. It's likely that none of them are very deep, but there's a BUNCH of them, so they look (and feel) really bad.
