Filter user contribution page by number of bytes changed
Problem: It is difficult to identify "major" contributions of an editor, particularly if they are prolific editors and their edit history spans years and thousands of edits.
Who would benefit: Admins and editors reviewing user's contributions.
Proposed solution: Add a filter on user contribution pages to filter by the changes by number of bytes added/deleted. That way, for example, one could get a listing of user's contributions to the main space where they added more that 500 bytes.
Good idea - you could identify the authors of larger changes more easily. I had this problem several times, i.e. when you want to propose a change or addition. --Bernd.Brincken (talk) 19:04, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As soon I find time I will extend this to sort contribution page alternatively back by date-time, by size, by summary.
Sorting is nearly the same as filtering but leaves the smaller number below. The page will be kept locally, but changes entry order as often as desired.
Note that this would work on existing result, not retrieving results from the server matching a condition.
There is already a filtering form, by namespace, by date, by minor, by current, by new accounts, by page creation. That might be extended by min/max size.
This is less useful, adding an infobox will bring a big change, and make translate or refine may be small or even reduced bytes. Period and sorting may be useful.--YFdyh000 (talk) 15:13, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
