Hi Jim,
you have done this by coding a special page in php?

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_statisti…
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
exactly!
So how could this look like?
I'm thinking about a functionality, e. g. if you use the following in
a wiki page:
{{Special:RecentChangesUser/User1/User2/User3/...}}
or
<DPL>
user=User1
user=User2
user=User3
user=...
ordermethod=lastedit
order=descending
count=50
</DPL>
this should result in a page listening all the last edited pages from
the given Users e. g. in the following form
page1 User2 date youngest
page2 User2 date younger
page3 User1 date young
I think this could be coded pretty quickly. 50 results total or 50
for each? The latter is going to run more slowly, I think.

Kind regards, Peter
