Perhaps "over" should be changed to "roughly" or "approximately" or "about". I mean, people can and do come along to delete pages you've put a lot of work into. — CharlotteWebb 01:06, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Even so, I would still have done over N edits — edits done to pages that were removed afterwards are still edits on my record. I don't want a userbox that says, in effect: Well, uh, I think I have, like, maybe N edits, if that's OK with you?. I want a bold userbox to show off my number of edits in a positive way. Besides, the current vacillating userbox with tilde and parentheses has a sloppy, unfinished look. The original version was better. Freederick 14:29, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What are mainspace edits?

I've looked all over the place and can't find any sort of formal definition. Does it simply mean edits done to encyclopedic articles, or something else entirely? --Brandon (talk) 18:39, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The "mainspace" is the main namespace; the namespace without a name. Mainspace edits means edits done in this space: edits to encyclopedic articles, disambiguation pages, redirects, etc, but not edits to discussion pages, deletion debates, policy proposals, image descriptions, user presentations, etc. Plrk (talk) 19:15, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, because of the above I'd really rather have the box say "Wikipedia mainspace" rather than "Wikipedia articles". Plrk (talk) 19:21, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, and will change it if there are no objections. Adam McCormick (talk) 23:26, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
