Canvassing
50+ WikiLove messages in the last 24 hours (9/10 February 2014; especially 10 February, around 16h)→ During an ongoing RFA - this might look like a subtle form of canvassing?! --IIIraute (talk) 19:57, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * So I aint the only one to think it's pretty odd!. →Davey 2010→  →Talk to me!→  20:44, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * It's not subtle, it's blatant. Was just about to ask a follow up to my Q7 when I saw this. Leaky  Caldron  20:49, 10 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Hmmm, did I mention RfA in them? I believe I didn't...? Anyway, the stats above show that I've left 17105 user talk page messages in this project, 50 a day is not unusual to me. Many of today's messages come from my regular Monday weekly review of User:AlexNewArtBot/PolandSearchResult; I habitually leave dozens of messages each Monday. This week I didn't have to leave almost any prods (there are weeks I have to leave dozens on Monday...), and as I felt extra good today I decided to spread some additional overdue happiness to the hard working DYK admins and few others. I recommend you try it out. IIIraute, I believe you have never given a wikilove message before - go on, saying good things about others, assuming goof faith, and practicing WikiLove in general is a very healthy attitude, recommended by one of my favorite WikiProjects, the Kindness Campaign. Now, I cannot defend against bad faith interpretation that my regular edits are some form of "subtle canvassing", how could I prove otherwise? My messages don't mention nor do they link this RfA, so no, I don't see what's the problem with me sending them out. Few days ago my name was on a mass delivery WikiProject Poland newsletter, was it a subtle form of pre-campaigning, too? A some GF, pretty please. I'll, however, say this: spreading happiness to other Wikipedians is much, much more important to me than passing this vote. If in order to pass (or to gain a few votes) I'd be required not to tell others they are doing good job, and thank them for their contributions, so be it. I consider passing this RfA a much less important item in the grand scheme of things than ensuring a number of hard working Wikipedians get their long deserved thank you; if I can motivate only a few people to reconsider leaving, or increase their activity, then I'd have done much more than I every could with the tools. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 20:52, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * WP:AGF isn't a noose. Nudging 50 people the day after you RfA (with a total 9 in December & January, AFAICT) can be regarded by anyone as anything, including encouraging people to see what you are up to via your recent contributions. Leaky  Caldron  21:31, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. Mind you, I did five edits to RfA page, and about one hundred fifty in the last two days or so, so my contribs shouldn't be that blatantly self-advertising, I'd hope. Through this thread is changing this a bit, I think it's my fourth edit here... Does it mean I am abusing our discussion here to promote my candidacy? Hmmm, I can see how one could argue for that. Should I have stayed silent then? Surely no-one would treat the silence as a silent admission of guilt? Do or don't, whatever I do, I am damned, aren't I? :) --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 21:56, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * What do you say to this → --IIIraute (talk) 22:32, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Nice tool. So I guess I was using WikiLove for three years now, huh? I certainly like it more and more. As I said, you should try it, too! PS. This tool doesn't account for non-WikiLove messages, I used to leave lot of traditional thanks, too. See also and . Hmmm, I think I often didn't leave a descriptive summary, instead of starting a new section I'd piggy back on the last one at the bottom of someone's talk page; I am not sure how to account for but I am afraid those edit summary searches will be missing a lot of my barnstar and such edits. Sorry about that, not sure how to run a query to give you the full results. PPS. I just remembered - I wrote a mini wiki essay on the importance of those kind of edits few years back. It should explain my thoughts on this further. PPPS. As well as the refs I cite there for why giving out wikilove and similar awards is a great idea: Wikimedia Strategy Taskforce for Community Health Recommendation #1: Volunteer Recognition, Positive feedback works for editing, say Wikipedia editors, SBU study finds informal awards contribute to higher Wikipedia participation. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here  23:05, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * ...well, you certainly liked it a lot "more and more" in the last two days. --IIIraute (talk) 23:56, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Last 50 - two days. Prior 50 - two years. Sorry, but this stinks.-- S Philbrick (Talk)  19:25, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm a bit pissed off that I didn't get a barnstar. I even had a drink with him in Boston. Drmies (talk) 04:03, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Per . I noticed as soon  as it  happened but  as I  had already  !voted, and as mentioning it (or changing  my  !vote) would not  have impacted on the outcome, I let  it go. Certainly  gave me pause though. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 04:21, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
