When I ask a client to close a project that is complete I explain why it is important that they, not I, close the project. I also let them know I've enjoyed working with them (if it's true) and that I look forward to leaving excellent feedback for them (if it's true).
With clients I haven't enjoyed working for I first ask them to close the project after it's been idle for a month or so and then wait another month or so for them to close the project. If they still haven't closed their idle or completed project after 8 weeks or so, I close it myself. I assume they are notified by Upwork that the project is closed and they are allowed to leave feedback for me. After that much time has passed, most lame or lazy clients just can't be bothered to leave feedback.

I just encourage clients to end the contract. That way feedback is guaranteed. I NEVER ask a client to leave feedback. Never have, never would,

Same as above.
If it appears that there is no more work to be done on a contract, I ask the client to close it. That way they must leave feedback.
I see no point in asking for good feedback. Not only is it unprofessional, but also because it should be obvious to clients that I would prefer good feedback. I just make sure to be polite when asking to help make sure their experience working with me is positive.
