Hi Sarah, I've been meaning to ask this for awhile

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!
