Bon dia / Hi,
Is there any available tool to precisely count how many days in a row a
Wikimedian from a specifif project has been editing? The source that is
linked in the Diffs page (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Database_reports/Longest_active_use…
only within the English Wikipedia…
Has anyone checked that there is no other user in the rest of the
other projects (hundreds of them) with a similar or better streak, so that
the sentence “the Wikimedian with the longest editing streak” is fully
accurate regarding both language and Wikimedia project?
Gràcies! / Thank you!

Johnny Au <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Johnny_Au>has been editing
every single day since November 11, 2007, which makes him the Wikimedian
with the longest editing streak. That's more than 15 years or - more
precisely - 5733 days of continuous editing!
Each day Johnny checks his extensive watchlist, which includes articles
related to his beloved hometown Toronto. From local sports teams and art
galleries, to Toronto transit system – Johnny is passionate about all
things Toronto-related, and carefully watches over Wikipedia articles about
it. He specializes in minor, maintenance edits: correcting spelling and
language, reverting vandalisms, adding images and correcting mistakes.
The daily habit of editing and the pure love for Wikipedia, and passion
for free knowledge, is what keeps him going. When asked about advice to
share with other editors, he says: *Never give up. Fight the good fight.
We must fight against misinformation and disinformation.*

streak almost broke!) on Diff
