Hello everybody. It's a long time I'm wondering if it's possibile to count stats like this: https://tools.wmflabs.org/phetools/statistics.php?diff=1 but, *per user*.
I can imagine a sort of *gamification*, so that each Wikisource community decides some barnstars or title or awards per pages proofread, and or validated. I would say it's a good way to engage readers, which is often difficult in Wikisource.
So, a simple "proofread counter" could be helpful in this regard. Phe, Tpt, is it difficult to make?
Thanks everybody
Aubrey

I didn't know those, thanks!
Well, no, I'm not scared. I fully understand how many people could not like this kind of counting/gamification, but I would say that we should test everything that can engage users and readers. Wikisources are historically understaffed :-), and if this kind of games could help some users to do the hard and often boring job of fixing typos/proofreading/validating, I don't see why it'd be regarded as bad.
