            Bug ID: 53494
           Summary: Edit counter seems to be broken on Commons
           Product: Tool Labs tools
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: lists

    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

The "edit count" tool, which was previously hosted on the toolserver, and which
is a pretty important tool, seems to be substantially broken when trying to use
it on Commons. Whatever user I try to use it on, it gives me a page full of
error messages instead of the proper output. (It works fine for English
Wikipedia and Wikisource, haven't tested elsewhere.)

In an IRC chat, bawolff had this to say about the issue:
 the person who programmed the tool made a mistake
 460/461 is the namespace number for campaign namespace, maybe they didn't
account for people adding new namespaces over time

This is pretty far outside my expertise, I'm only reporting what I heard. But I
hope there is an easy fix?
