This is a list of Wikisource contributors ordered by total number of edits. Edits in all namespaces (Author, User talk, Translation, etc.) are counted. Bots are not included in this list.
The list is gathered from all the users with more than 10,000 edits as counted by this database query. This list was updated on 21 March 2019 (UTC).
Opting out edit
Users who don't wish to be on this list are welcome to replace their name with "[Placeholder]" and add themselves to this anonymizing list for future versions.
Purpose of this list edit
Visitors to this page may well ask themselves, "Why does this list exist? What is the value of organizing contributors by number of edits?
That is a fair question. Having a user account with a large number of edits implies that the user is experienced, knows what they are doing, is familiar with Wikisource style guides, and can direct other editors on the correct format and venues to express their concerns or problems.
Should it become your goal to get your own account on this list, or to increase your ranking on it? If that means you are willing to contribute time and energy to adding content to this library, then absolutely! All that is asked is you take the project seriously. We all learn as we go, and if we are here for the right reasons, then our edit counts are only interesting commentary on our participation (never the quality or value of it). This is a collaborative project, and it can always use more level-headed contributors willing to learn how it all works.
