Agreed, it's not the dropping but the catching ... or the tired editor's
scrolling-finger drooping and landing on the bottom right corner, the most
vulnerable corner of the screen (assuming right-handed editor), where this
large green button sits, or a fumbling editor aiming for the phone's "back"
button a few millimetres away and missing. My experience is on a Samsung Galaxy
Fame, an unreliable local data service and flaky wifi: devs may be accustomed
to rather larger, faster, machines. 

You want evidence:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Skookum1&diff=prev&oldid=620599401
is a recent diff.

Please do one of several things:
1: Require a confirmation click (in a different part of the screen so an
accidental doubleclick wouldn't do it)
2: Have a delayed action "Thank" with undo, so that pressing the button again
within 30 secs or whatever will stop the Thank from going through (ie the
accidentally "thanked" editor sees nothing)
3: Move the thank button to a less accident-prone part of the screen and/or
reduce its size - if I need precision clicking to do everything else on mobile,
why make an exception for this?
4: Provide a Preference of opting out of Thanking on mobile.
