It's not hard to write a special page to do this. We made something to distinguish contributions by our staff (vast majority) from those made by our community users (very very few, alas):
http://ecoliwiki.net/colipedia/index.php/Special:User_contribution_statistic...
That page is a kludge where I've hard-coded in the userids to exclude and committed various other coding sins. But a cleaner version would be pretty easy to write... and I probably should work on a cleaner version. It could be useful, for example, for instructors to monitor the changes made by students in a class. But I'm fuzzy on what it should look like.

Hello,
after using a couple of hours to google and search mediawiki.org and meta.wikimedia.org I can't find the needed informations (also I found a lot of not searched but nevertheless useful informations :-), I would like to ask the mailinglist.
I would be very happy, if I get a rtfm-url (in case I overlooked the information source).
We using mediawiki in our company with roundabout 300 employee as a collaboration platform. I'm especially interested in the work of my group (which consists of only 15 members from this 300).
So what I'm looking for is a functionality like
Special:Contributions/User1/User2/User3/.../User15
This works fine for only one user, but doesn't for more. Are there any hidden Special-Page or unknown syntax to address such a request?
In addition, I'm looking for possibilities for cleaning up the result pages a little bit. E. g. it's enough for me to see that User1 had edited pageX 29 times (or so), I don't need more details, for that, I could consult the edited page itself.
Hope, anybody could help?
Kind regards, Peter
There's no function to show the Contributions of any of n employees. You could however, have a page listing all the and view the changes to its pages (Special:RecentChangesLinked), or add them on your watchlist. I'm afraid the functionalities are based on pages, not on users.
