Hi All,
I have been inactive a while. Can someone tell me whether the user contribution page is going to return to listing contributions or is it going to stick with the recent changes format of within last 30 days? Was this change due to a performance issue or as a result of refactoring the wiki software?
Personally I found the old format extremely useful in quickly browsing to subjects that I had previously found interesting and was able to contribute to. It was also fun/useful to be able to see a list of my contributions without me having to build and maintain a list manually. Easier to find skimpy entries or augment articles of interest with additional information.
It was also useful on the occasion a few months ago when I was labeled <b>TROLL</b>. In response to my defensive reaction to this offensive allegation, Rgamble actually looked up a few of my contributions and affirmed that he/she thought I was contributing more than I was damaging and that he/she therefore did not consider me a troll.
As things stand right now on the contribution page he/she would have been unable to respond semi-quantitatively due to an inability to easily audit a random sampling of past contributions.
