What can this extension do?

This extension creates a special page where one can view the edit count of a user per namespace. It includes the percent of edits that user made in certain namespace as well as total edits. As of version 1.1.0, it includes a parser function which can inline a users edit count. After the name of the user, in 1.2.0, you can put the number or name of a namespace (0 for Main) and get that EditCount.

Parser function examples

Shows the count of the user Benjamin
{{#ec:Benjamin}}

in the 4 namespace
{{#ec:Benjamin|4}}

in the main namespace
{{#ec:Benjamin|0}}

and in the Talk namespace
{{#ec:Benjamin|Talk}}

Installation

This extension was formerly hosted at SourceForge, but has been moved to Wikimedia's svn.

Old installations and the old code was intended to be placed in the EditCount directory, however in svn it is located in mw-editcount as the extension would conflict with the Editcount extension in svn. When upgrading from the old code it's recommended to add the new code in the new directory, change your include line, and delete the old code.

Once you download it, and decompress it to the extensions directory. Add the following line to LocalSettings.php (old code uses EditCount instead of mw-editcount):

require_once("$IP/extensions/mw-editcount/EditCount.php");
