--- Comment #8 from Dennis C. During <[email protected]> ---
I would really like thanking to be possible from Special:RecentChanges and
Special:Watchlist and any other page used for patrolling. Such pages are the
only way to possibly deliver thanks in a timely fashion to anonymous
contributors.

Anonymous contributors could certainly use some positive feedback. It might be
possible to integrate a 'please register' message into the thanks, which would
further enhance our ability to recruit good anonymous contributors into
long-term contributors. 

It doesn't make much sense to have thanks delivered to most IP addresses except
during the current session of the user. Only someone watching or patrolling is
in a good position to offer timely thanks. 

The opportunity to offer positive feedback might also draw more and different
types of people to do patrolling, a chronic need at wiktionaries.
