Unfortunately, we could not have a G+ hangout/Skype/TeamViewer as there were connectivity problems at my end. However, the hackathon started at 9 pm and we chose Google Docs for interaction purpose and spoke over the phone as well whenever needed. Harsh taught me how to make UserScripts using the API Sandbox. We made a userscript to calculate the edit count of the user. He also informed me about the JS console, the Resource loader, MediaWIki API, grab data from query etc. We finished this in about 80 minutes time. It was a nice experience and I made my first UserScript that can calculate user’s editcount. If anyone wants to get started with MediaWiki or have any doubt, they can contact either Harsh or me. Thank you Harsh for your time! :-) -- Warm Regards, *Pratik Lahoti* User:BPositive <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:BPositive> *Speak less, work more....*
