Successful RfAs only.

I used year=365.25. I dunno if that's bad.

Disclaimer! Note that this data is not too useful because it only tracks registration date, not the date that active editing started (which could be very different for some editors! I started actively editing about 13 months after registering, for instance). But that would be time-consuming to collect by hand.
