Wouldn't It Be Cool If there were a tab on your profile - like where you can click to see your entries, or hosted battles, or avatars, etc - that showed all the Lyceum articles you contributed to, possibly along with the percentage amounts that you added (or subtracted lol)?

i know the percentage thing is not perfect, but the fact that that statistic exists leads me to think it *could* be possible to compile this information for a profile viewer thingy! even just showing all the articles a person has edited would be nice.

this is cool not only from a simple "hey check out all this stuff this user has written about / helped with" perspective, but also potentially useful for the user themselves to check in on or update articles they'd worked on before but maybe forgot about.

i'm unsure how much work it would be to build a tab for this; i could see it being too much, but if organizing and recalling that "X%" data for Lyceum articles is possible, then i think this would be a nice, helpful, informative profile tab addition!

it's funny I was JUST looking for this today - it seems like such an obvious feature that somehow I assumed it already existed

honestly i'm shocked this doesn't have more discussion around it. having a page that tracks what pages someone edited/written and how much they've contributed to it is super awesome! only thing i would add is having a counter sorta like this:

x / y / z

where:
x = sm0l edits (<5%)
y = medium edits (5-30%)
z = longcatislong edits (>30%)

in case people need an instant answer to "how much has this person contributed to the overall knowledge of battleofthebits.com"

One thing I recently noticed, is that when a Lyceum entry is split into a new article, the original editor metadata isn't retained, so if such a feature were to exist, would the tracking and/or management of the contribution history need to have a more sophisticated backend, in order to properly attribute committed edits?
