curprev 04:2404:24, 2 May 2023 Huggums537 talk contribs 10,809 bytes −131 Undid revision 1152704225 by Tryptofish (talk) I disagree the passage is suggesting our use is any different since it links to the article about common canvassing, then highlights it in bold. I suggest a controversial bold edit be discussed before adding to guidance. undo Tag: Undo

curprev 20:1920:19, 1 May 2023 Tryptofish talk contribs 10,940 bytes +131 Undid revision 1152566498 by Huggums537 (talk) This is still useful to point out, because our use does differ from the dictionary definition, and this comes directly after the phrase "and is considered inappropriate". undo Tags: Undo Reverted
curprev 00:5200:52, 1 May 2023 Huggums537 talk contribs 10,809 bytes −131 WP:CREEP + means same here as anywhere else anyway; "to seek or *solicit* opinions or support". The word "solicit" means it *can* be negative to canvass. We don't need to explain that to people. Besides, this page has a section for appropriate notice also so it isn't always negative on this whole page to leave appropriate notice to seek opinions. undo Tag: Reverted

One section is for advice on appropriate notice, and the other on inappropriate ones so the advice not to send to users who have not asked for it belongs here. undo
