Well Rex. I got your point

Let someone clarify what real edits are.

Thanks

Searched on google, no results worth referencing to. Will like to know the standards outlined for what a real edit is first, and perhaps we can take it from the stats.

Before Erik even clarifies, I think the specificity of Rupert's question must be first established guys, so Rupert, be clearer :-)

Hi Rupert

Thank you for the statistics!

I have often wondered that question and perhaps it is something we should ask Erik Zachte who collates the stats (and is now cc’d in this email). However, I am also not sure what exactly how to define a ‘real’ edit (excuse my naïveté). Does it mean one not created by a bot? Or the length of the text contributed, or indeed the quality of text. I am not sure how one measures the difference and if there is a tool for doing so.

Erik, perhaps you could clarify for us?

Warmest
Isla

Subject: [Wikimedia ZA] page edits per country ...

hi

here page edits per month and country:
http://stats.wikimedia.org/wikimedia/squids/SquidReportPageEditsPerCountryOverview.htm

for Africa:
15'000  Egypt
10'000  south Africa
 6'000  algeria
 5'000  marocco
 3'000  tunesia
 2'000  kenya
 1'000  angola
 1'000  ghana

I am wondering how these numbers should be read. How many real edits does it mean?
