--- Comment #34 from Graham87 <[email protected]> 2010-08-14 15:33:37 UTC --- Hmmm, this is probably due to the facte that the rev_user field is non-zero for each of the edits listed in those two links, and in fact is linked to the user ID of the user who made the edit; this never happens in the English Wikipedia, so these methods cannot be used there. The rev_user field shows the user ID of the editor who made a particular edit; the equivalent field in the archive table is ar_user. The user ID for an edit is always 0 for anonymous editors, mass-imports and scripts; it isn't usually zero for normal registered users. If the user ID given for an edit made by a registered user is 0, then the "contribs" link won't show up for the user in the page history. This example comes from a mistaken import, but it is illustrative: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ocean&diff=331657005&oldid=271538 No contribs are found for Ryan_Lackey (see top of bug report) in the API of the English Wikipedia, because none of his edits have an associated non-zero user ID: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=usercontribs&ucuser=Ryan_Lackey -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
