Return to Question

Yesterday I made over 100 edits. Why I did it?

1. To gain some badges and reputation points.
2. To make SO site a little better
3. Wanted to check if it is possible to gain 200 reputation points in one day this way.
4. I was curious how community will react for my unusual activity.

My edits were neither very valuable nor worthless. For example:

1. When there was question about Project Euler problem and it wasn't tagged [project-euler] and wasn't linked to this site, then I added tag and link.
2. Similarily with 4Clojure site
3. When question was about Fibonacci numbers and wasn't tagged [fibonacci] or about prime factorisation and wasn't tagged [prime-factoring] I added tag.
4. When I spotted spelling error or formatting code error in above questions I corrected them.

Result:

At the beginning my edit proposals were smoothly accepted. Then something started changing. Proposals waited longer for review. I spotted 'reject' votes. Proposals were accepted with score 3:1 or 3:2. Then several of my questions were rejected. I attracted several powerful users who voted against me.

Today I found following discussion on chat:

There are many hypotheses and opinions regarding me:

1. Is he trying to promote projecteuler.net?
2. So just rep farmer?
3. Perhaps users consider the tag useful.
4. The repeated behavior looks like spam to me.

Here are my answers:

1. I didn't do it to promote Project Euler site. Simply there were so many not tagged and linked Project Euler questions and only few not tagger 4Clojure question.
2. Few months ago I was solving problems from these two sites and found them interesting.
3. I think that my yesterday's edits were useful work. This work is not worth 200 rep points but doing edit there is no option 'I don't want rep points for this' (maybe it should be)
4. I don't plan another such experiment.
5. If there is [project-euler] tag (I didn't invented it) then questions regarding Euler problems should be tagged with this tag.
6. I think that even small edits are useful and are improving SO site.

What do you think about it? Was my activity wrong?
