--- Comment #5 from Quiddity pandiculat...@gmail.com ---
Ian, if I understand correctly, part of the functionality you are looking for,
is in the tool [[Wikipedia:WikiBlame]]. In the English Wikipedia, this tool is
linked at the top of every History page, with the text Revision history
search.
Some of the other scenarios ('use-cases') you describe, which I'd
paraphrase-for-confirmation as searching all contributions of a single editor
(across many/all pages), for additions of a particular textstring, will need a
new bug. I'd suggest closing this one, and starting a new one, with that
description and your examples. (Include both the Abstract, and Specific :)
HTH.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57799 --- Comment #4 from Ian Tresman i...@knowledge.co.uk --- If I see a statement in a Wikipedia article, sometimes it is not sourced. So I'd like to find out who added it, so I can ask them whether they forgot the source, don't have one, of whatever. Or perhaps the statement is ambiguous, so it would nice to ask the editor for clarification. Or perhaps an editor is accused of always adding a certain phrase to an article over time (avoiding 3RR), but the search shows that they are doing it over a long period of time. Or perhaps I believe an editor making unwelcome comments about me, so I could search to find out what they have said about me. Or perhaps a Wikipedia core policy has changed, and we want find out when the wording was change from always to sometimes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
