replies: text: This is a very urgent need... I looked all around for the exact same thing today... Zilch, nothing. The best way, apart from creating an external counter, would be to add another category to the Special:Contributions page, a "Page Creation Log". That shouldn't be so hard to do. Check the edit on the page history, see if theres any edit before it. If not, its a page creation. Otherwise, see the page size before the edit. If its 0 bytes or not defined, its again a page or redirect create. Sniperz11talk|edits 09:37, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Hi, I was wondering if it would be feasible to create an edit counter that separates out edits made by AutoWikiBrowser (or other semi-automated tools, such as Twinkle and VandalProof).  For example, when looking at my own edit count , periods where I have done AWB runs (November 2007, March and April 2008) stick out like a sore thumb.  I can't be the only AWB user to be affected by this, so in circumstances like RfA it might be desirable to be able to see how many "manual" edits someone has made, as opposed to (semi-) automated ones.

thread_title:  Articles 

message: I was wondering if anyone had attempted to make a tool that counted the total sum of bytes of a user's contributions.  Edit counts--and edit count rankings--don't really tell you how much someone has contributed to Wikipedia.  A tool that went through a user's edits and counted the difference in size of an article's versions would give a better measure of how much work an editor has contributed to Wikipedia (especially if the tool were limited to the article space).  It seems like such a tool would be feasible. Current page histories show the article size of each version. You would only need to take the difference in size between edits to get the size of a contribution.  I can see where this might be difficult to do, or it might put a strain on servers, but I thought I would throw it out there.  
This tool would have its potential problems. Reversions to blanking edits would be credited with large contributions unless reversions are excluded from the counter.  The tool might also encourage unnecessarily lengthy edits.  However, the tool could also encourage all of those racking up their edit counts with small changes to make more substantive contributions. Even though it would be a flawed measure, the problems with a content count tool would offset some of the problems with edit counts, and vice versa.  Combining content size sums and regular edit counts would give a better picture of an editor's contributions than an edit counter alone.--Bkwillwm (talk) 04:44, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Did anything come of this? Sounds useful. Ideally it'd be a measure in change of entropy from the last version so that restoring/blanking would only count as 1 jk, same as changing a single word - whereas a substansive rework of an article (that doesn't result in many bytes changed) would count as many.

replies: text: Based on the information presented, no. The few cases that have been pointed out deal only with 500 or so edits. I can and do think that it is a not unreasonable number to use in those instances when there is thought to be a potential problem regarding creation of sockpuppets or meatpuppets. Most everybody I have ever encountered recognizes that the difference in conduct and knowledge of policies and guidelines, between, for instance, an editor with five thousand edits and one hundred thousand or more edits is generally negligible; both are assumed to basically know that they are doing, admittedly, sometimes inaccurately. I am unaware myself of any cases where these edit count numbers have had much if any utility in cases other than those involving new and inexperienced editors and those which might involve some form of sockpuppetry or meatpuppetry. If there are any instances where edit count has been a factor in other cases, it would be very useful to know what they are, but, without such information, I would have to say this doesn't really look like a significant matter.

replies: text: As one of the admins involved in the discussion which instituted the restrictions at Nagorno-Karabakh, I would add that the situation there is very atypical.  It's a very bitter nationalist dispute, and ethnic tensions run particularly high for entirely understandable reasons; in addition to attracting a lot of new users who don't get how Wikipedia works, it's been plagued with sockpuppetry for years.  It turned out to be an extremely effective restriction as well, as two of the most obvious POV-pushers there proceeded to act like fools and get themselves blocked by making hundreds of useless edits to get to 500 so they could game the system.

message: I was delighted to find that  Kate's Tool gives a result for the number of unique pages edited -- this is very helpful to me.  Ideally, I'd like to calculate that value within a specified range of dates, for example, the number of unique pages that were edited in the last year. Is anything available to do this?

message: Hi all,
My name is Adi Khajuria and I am helping out with Wikimania 2014 in London.
One of our initiatives is to create leaflets to increase the discoverability of various wikimedia projects, and showcase the breadth of activity within wikimedia. Any kind of project can have a physical paper leaflet designed - for free - as a tool to help recruit new contributors. These leaflets will be printed at Wikimania 2014, and the designs can be re-used in the future at other events and locations.
This is particularly aimed at highlighting less discoverable but successful projects, e.g:
• Active Wikiprojects: Wikiproject Medicine, WikiProject Video Games, Wikiproject Film
• Tech projects/Tools, which may be looking for either users or developers.
• Less known major projects: Wikinews, Wikidata, Wikivoyage, etc.
• Wiki Loves Parliaments, Wiki Loves Monuments, Wiki Loves ____
• Wikimedia thematic organisations, Wikiwomen’s Collaborative, The Signpost
The deadline for submissions is 1st July 2014
For more information or to sign up for one for your project, go to:

thread_title:  Leaflet for Wikiproject Edit Counters at Wikimania 2014 

message: Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Comment on the WikiProject X proposal 

message: I came across this page and noticed that the page is full of striked out text that makes it look messy and harder to read. The talk page is more of a discussion page WP:TALK and not a talk page for discussing page changes and edits. Also there seem to be that look like adverts for things in the last few posts on this page.
I do not know if the rules for Project talk pages are different to normal WP talks but I do think that the page is a mess. I don't know if this will be read in the near future but If someone does come across it, it would be helpful if you could clean it us for ease of reading. Tedjam (talk) 18:04, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Messy/ Not Wikipedia-esque 

message: Hello everyone!
You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

message: I tried to find this on this page and in the archives but couldn't find an answer -- what exactly does 'deleted edits' mean?  Out of 3899 edits I've made, 189 are 'deleted edits.'   I would think that I've been straight-out reverted more times than that, much less that material I've added has been deleted or replaced over time more times than that.

message: I know I saw this within the last couple of weeks, and I found it via a link from a normal Wikipedia page, but I’m afraid I’ve forgotten where it is.  The counter listed a user’s edits as month-by-month and year-by-year graphs, color-coded by edit type.  Where can I find it again?—DocWatson42 (talk) 05:38, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Tool for user edit counts by month/year? 

message: I've tried searching online for ways to do this, but I couldn't find any. So is there a way for me to display my edit count as a string, instead of having to link to an external site for showing it (or the need of using an api, as I am not an administrator on places)

thread_title:  Edit count in signing posts 

message: A new Newsletter directory has been created to replace the old, out-of-date one. If your WikiProject and its taskforces have newsletters (even inactive ones), or if you know of a missing newsletter (including from sister projects like WikiSpecies), please include it in the directory! The template can be a bit tricky, so if you need help, just post the newsletter on the template's talk page and someone will add it for you.

message: I've seen that some don't want a bot that doesn't update your edit count automatically, but I'm looking for a template that just returns your edit count (possibly limited to a single type/name-space) when the page is loaded. Does something like that exist and I'm just not finding it? I saw some templates using "" in their edit count user boxes, but I'm not sure what that's doing, and finding documentation on it (or what the extra squiggly brackets do) is difficult.
