Usage

  • Change Name of Article in XMLFetcher (main method)
  • Run main method

Basic Idea

  • Finds the most recent 500 edits of an article, counts the number of edits
    by each of the users in this list of 500 edits
  • Takes the 20 users that made the most changes to the article
  • Calculates the “Experience” for each of these users and
    prints these numbers to STDOUT

Possible Improvements

  • Fetch more than 500 revisions
  • Fetch revisions in a date-range
  • Do not execute HTTP Request for each user, bundle them
  • Use Google Chart Tools to generate diagrams right away
  • Review “Experience-Formula” (Available data for authors: registration date, number of edits)
