Edit count is a special page found at Special:Editcount on any community. Simply enter a username in the input box on the Edit count page and click "Submit." The next page will give you a list of statistics for that community, as well as your activity on the entire Wikia network. You can see this for any registered user, yourself included.

What can I see on this page?
The local data is found in the left column, with the database name of the wiki at the top of the column. This shows your total amount of edits for that wiki, as well as the number of edits you have made in each individual namespace. In the picture to the right, for example, Cook Me Plox is shown as having 12,910 mainspace edits. Those 12,910 edits are 44.36% of the 29,106 edits he has made on the wiki in total.

Global data, found in the right column, is your edit count information for the entire Wikia network. It will show how many edits you have made in those particular namespaces on all communities, as well as their percentage of your entire edit count across Wikia.

Please note that global data is not automatically updated, as it uses cached data and is sometimes disabled to save some server load time. This can lead to slow updates and numbers not adding up correctly, or to not having any data at all. Not to worry, though! Nothing is lost, so your edits are still there. Just give it some time and check back later. We promise!

Using the Edit count page
You may want to reference this Edit count page elsewhere on the community. There are a few ways in which you can do that:


 * Linking Special:Editcount/Username, with "Username" being replaced with the name of the person whose edit count you're looking up, will take you directly to that person's edit count page.
 * Using will embed Username's local edit count.
 * Using, with "Namespace" being replaced by the name of the namespace, will embed the number of local edits for a specific namespace.
