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.) http://tools.wmflabs.org/xtools/pcount/index.php?name=Peteforsyth&lang=commons&wiki=wikimedia 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? See also here where I previously reported it: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nova_Resource_Talk:Xtools#Edit_counter_seems_to_be_broken_on_Commons
It appears that commons has new namespaces. They need to be added to the counter.
How do I change the status of this bug?
Right below the bottom comment (now this one) there's a "status" drop-down menu. Is that what you're looking for? Thanks for taking note!
It's not a drop down for me. It just says new. Am I doing something wrong? I'm not all too familiar with Bugzilla.
Bugs regarding the edit counter should actually be assigned to me.
(In reply to comment #2) > How do I change the status of this bug? If you don't see the drop down, ask andre or thehelpfulone for editbugs rights. (Or just ask someone else to change the status)
(In reply to comment #5) > Bugs regarding the edit counter should actually be assigned to me. Changing asignee to you, and status to "assigned"
Thanks.
