In the page source of <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page> while logged in, I currently see... "wgEditCount":"164291" "wgUserId":212624 {"registration":"20050531222515","editcount":164272,"pastyearseditcount":91337} We know these things both client-side and server-side. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
