It’s amazing what you do when you want to throw up, I was looking at old Forum threads and saw this by wikiRicardo. I’m bringing this back for testing, to see how well users will edit. While we’re doing Rally to Raise Quality, I thought this could be a super fun thing to do - It’ll motivate users, give us great edits and hopefully mature us all a bit.
(Disclaimer: I did read the other thread, and I relize we’re volunteers and people don’t need to be awarded to motivate them, being part of the community is motivation enough. =) Just a fun thing to *test* out.) Please read this page ( http://m.wikihow.com/wikiHow:WikiHow-User-of-the-Month
) to see how you do it. I’ll edit the page a bit. =) Rules, nomination process stars today and go 'til…Wednesday - Good? Do not do this for the award, do it for the quality and well-being of the site. June Days

Awesome, thanks so much, June!
P.S. To anyone… DO NOTspam talk pages with this.

A good approach. It will even help us in increasing the quality of our articles. Good job.
Changing it to Thursday - I’m really busy for the next three months. Hopefully will be able to do it on Thursday, though. June Days
Why is this in forum games? Shouldn’t it be in General Chat or the Village Pump?
That online voting ballot needs to be managed by me, and I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to do so.
Oh, shoot. KK, well, I’ll have people e-mail me and I’ll tally up.

Its really funny, today before looking at this thread I found the wikiHow contributor of the month page, but it looked like it was abandoned, and I was thinking about starting that up again.
I can help with the User of the Month, if you want, by the way
Hmm, no need to help unless I disappear for three months! (=P) Hope you’ll do this though, thanks for the offer! June Days
Bump. Keep this thread on top 'til Thursday. =) June Days
Sounds like an excellent method to encourage hyper-editing and make everyone else feel inadequate.

She is just trying to encourage others…the hyper editing is already there.

Well @CoffeeLover
will most likely be no were to be found, ranking wise.
I’m already the User of the Month in my own head. I’ll let someone dedicated try for the honor - I’m cheering you on, active editors!
