Summary: Timwi asked to have a policy against talkpage spamming. I disagreed. Timwi replied stating "It is annoying to be bothered with impersonal requests that you have nothing to do with."
My message:
Since you had edited the article, you had some connection with the case, so it was not spamming.
Personally I was very happy to get this user's message regarding Lucid dreaming, and I wouldn't like people to stop informing me about articles where I have contributed because of some "spamming" policy.
I wouldn't like if some user will use the talk pages for real spamming (i.e. "buy my product" etc). But I just don't understand how the cases you described can be considered spamming.
I wouldn't object a spamming policy if it could define properly what spamming is.
