Hi Sarah, I've been meaning to ask this for awhile but didn't know
where. This seems as good an opportunity as any. :)


    

    

    Hi to you other Sarah :) (Hehehe!) 

    

    

      
Something I find offputting about the wikilove awards is that they
leave an edit summary of "new WikiLove message". I've only used it
once because of that, and if I use it again I'll paste in my own
message and image rather than use the template.

Do you know whether there's a way individuals can change those edit
summaries, or can the template be tweaked centrally so it doesn't
automatically do that? I'm just thinking that if I was put off by the
edit summary, others might be too.


    

    

    I can see how that can be off-putting for sure. Sometimes even I go
    "ergh, wikilove," and I'd rather have my edit saying "A barnstar for
    you!" or "Here's a brownie..nom" or whatever I might be in the mood
    for. 

    

    But sadly, on that note, I have no idea if it's able to be changed.
    We'll have to ask Kaldari, as wikilove his is grand creation! (ala
    Frankenstein!)

    

    So...we shall await his response!
