The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- Closing as no support. This RFC has been open for more than one month. The limited number of comments all suggest that ranking editors by edit count, especially on this project, where so many edits are incremental and "gnomish", is not useful or productive.

I would like a page (like Special:CountEdits on Wikipedia) that shows the top editors on WikiData be started.
- Response Why would we have this? What would be the purpose of an edit count? On a site like this, many of those edits will be from bots or related tools rather than adding content as on a Wikipedia. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 20:19, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
Oppose Pages like this seem to only divide the community. Editors are more than their edit count, logged actions count, or the count of the number of pages created. --Guerillero | Talk 21:01, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
Comment I think that given how the edit count rises so easily on this project, having a list of top editors will become unmanageable sooner rather than later. Here, where almost all edits are gnomish, the count becomes irrelevant. — ΛΧΣ21 03:37, 2 March 2013 (UTC)- Oppose per all responses above. This list would become unmanageable, and since editors can do a lot of edits in a short amount of time on this project, it serves no purpose. Steel1943 (talk) 01:30, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
