Can I suggest we discuss how this is done until Feb 5 and then decided who we want in each category. Victuallers 17:56, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

I like this idea...

But it has made me realise that I'm not very good when it comes to visualising people and associating it with their actions. I don't mean as in picturing them from a photograph; I'm sure most of us don't know what most Wikipedians look like, I mean in the sense of feeling I can piece together all a person's contributions throughout the year and attaching them all to one individual nickname that I've stored away in my head.

As such, I would find it hard to think who to nominate.

That raises a question: since this is the inaugural award, will you award it to someone who has shown dedication over the years or will you limit your scope to someone who did a lot in 2011? --Bodnotbod 00:25, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
