Originally reported at [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Bad_change_to_the_user_creation_log]]. In the past if a user did not have any edits, their contributions link would show up red (see bug 4393). Looking at [[Special:ListUsers]] shows all blue contributions links, however most of those accounts have 0 edits. The links should be changed back to red ones if the user has 0 edits, as it is helpful in easily noting whether an account has edited or not.
I think this is high-priority because it interferes with editors' ability to quickly tell whether other editors have made any contributions, and thus to encourage them.

Change merged.
Reedy: Should this be backported to the deployed version? Seen this mentioned several times in the forums, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29&oldid=522163463#User_creation_log https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Fragen_zur_Wikipedia&oldid=110296917#Neuanmeldungsseite https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29&oldid=522163463#Bad_change_to_the_user_creation_log
