WikiPedia:User Contributions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

This page is deprecated but will be updated periodically.

Please direct edits to the Meta-Wikimedia version of this page

For producing a list of the edits of a particular user:

if it is a user with a user page: bring up the user page, click "User contributions" in the sidebar or bottom bar.
if it is a user with a login name but without a user page: clicking on the name in Recent Changes or Page History brings up an edit box for a user page; press Cancel and click "User contributions" in the sidebar or bottom bar.
if it is a user without a login name and without a user page: click on the IP address in Recent Changes or Page History, it gives the User contributions directly.

Also, you can copy the URL:

http://wikipedia.cas.ilstu.edu/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=XX , where XX is the user name or IP address.

If you don't wish to use an external link as above, you can use [[Special:Contributions/User:XX]]

Composition of the lines

The edits are shown from new to old. There is one line per edit, showing time, date, an m if the edit was marked "minor", the page name, and the edit summary (but not a marking for "new").

An edit is marked "(top)" if, at the time of producing the list, there are no more recent edits by anybody to the article concerned. Sysops also have a rollback link on these lines, see how to revert a page to an earlier version.
