Fumple's edit counter
Link to tool: User:Fumple/EditCount
This is the best edit counter for most purposes. To use it, go to the page User:Fumple/EditCount and type a username (case sensitive), then press the Display edit count button. Many tyes of edit counts will be displayed. Generally, the most useful is the mainspace edits counter, as it shows the number of edits made to the wiki's articles.
The EDITCOUNT template
Link to template: Template:EDITCOUNT
Use {{EDITCOUNT}} to display a simple edit count. This template does not allow others to see your edit count. If someone else views a page with this template, they will see their own edit count, not yours.
Example: Your edit count is YourEditCount.
Kanegasi's edit counter
This is a five-step guide for making a page that tracks your edits and sorts them into various namespaces. Credit for creating the tool goes to Wikipedia user Kanegasi.
Step 1
Go to your skin preferences by clicking here or click "Preferences" in the top right corner and select "Appearance" from the top of your preferences page.
Under "skin," see which option is selected. By default, it will be "Vector" or "Timeless".
Step 2
Click the "Custom JavaScript" link next to your selected skin. This will direct you to the correct place and open an editor window.
Step 3
Copy and paste this text into the page from Step 2:
/* Counts all your edits and saves them to a page ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Kanegasi/editcounter ) */
if (mw.config.get('wgTitle') === mw.config.get('wgUserName') && mw.config.get('wgNamespaceNumber') === 2) {
/* begin options */
/* end options */
mw.loader.load('https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Kanegasi/editcounter.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');
}
Step 4
Go to your userpage. On most skins, look at the sidebar on the left side of the screen. Under "tools," there should now be an option that reads "Edit counter v111." On Timeless and newer skins, this option will be at the top, next to User Contributions.
Click this option and wait until it reads "success!"
Step 5
Once the option displays "success!" click the search bar and enter User:Your username/edit count. Search for that page. You should see a page with that title that includes a table with a list of all of your edits, divided into namespaces.
"Main" denotes the number of edits you have made to actual Inkipedia articles, such as Splatoon and Annie. Make sure to only include Main edits when using edit count Barnsquids!
