My own concern with my definition is that it I should
raise the minimum
number of edits of a regular contributor. Also the period of observation
should be longer. But that would make it more work to do the
observation; counting ten edits is faster than using the "user edit
counter". Maybe a developer could create a tool that simplifies the
work, with a human being only to be needed for telling who is a content
contributor and not a Foreign helper.
Well, on the user table there are the number of user edits and
registering time, which would really filter it.
(Note that some people registration is much earlier than real edit
beginning, specially with SUL automatic account creations. Plus, if the
first edit just creates a user page and there're no edits on 5 months,
it may not really count. OTOH, an edit in talk or project should be as
relevant as one on main. So perhaps exclude edits on User: and User talk?)
