It's likely though that some users will start raging over the fact that only staff are making the decision. Users who rage are considered inconsiderate little brats that they didn't win even though in their mind they did well, when maybe they probably didn't do as well or enough as the chosen person.

Plus, staff are tasked with being 100% unbiased towards everyone and I can make sure that stays that way. Normal users have major bias as reflected in the past 8 months of ToTM, even if some show to be unbiased.

And remember, winners are chosen based on their own contributions during the month. They would have to work hard for the wiki to improve it, add articles, test or discover new information, fix errors, etc. Answering questions and doing role ideas is still helpful.

And it isn't a "how much" as I would look at it. I see it as a "how good". I'll choose someone who has edited only 6 articles if each edit was well organized and fixed either multiple issues or added whole new strategies without errors over a dude who edits 30 pages, yet each edit is minimal like adding a period or a comma. The "Minor edit" thing exists. Quality over quantity.
