At Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of edits, I see that some users are wikilinked, while others are not. Why is this inconsistency? I remember when the older bot used to make reports, none were wikilinked which was very consistent. Thanks! — CX Zoom[he/him] ( let's talk • { C• X}) 09:14, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
News and updates for administrators from the past month (December 2022).
Is it possible to get a before-scheduled run for Wikipedia:Database reports/Polluted categories and Wikipedia:Database reports/Polluted categories (2)? I have just done a very large cleanout and I want to see how many I missed. And thank you for running this task, which is a lifesaver... jp× g 07:36, 7 January 2023 (UTC)

After discussion the RfC has been reorganized, sorting comments into "support", "oppose," "neutral", and "RfC discussion" subsections. I placed yours into that last one, that cool or do you want it to go under "oppose" or "neutral"? -- Kiz o r 23:28, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
Hey, I found your work on editing streaks fascinating, as the #6 human editor on this list ... if it wasn't for WiFi problems at Los Angeles International Airport, I might've been #3! For a long time I've been interested to know whether other users have made more than e.g. 100/200/250 edits per month since June 2005, as I have. Perhaps that'd be harder to calculate, but I thought I'd ask. Also, I know your editing streaks tool is still in very early stages of development, but right now as a screen reader user I have to view the HTML source to be able to make any sense out of the "Streak history"section; for my money that'd probably be best as a table, but YMMV. P.s. now I regret this lack of main namespace editing (due to having a very light watchlist that day), which put me out of contension for the main namespace list. :-) Graham 87 09:57, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
