User:May His Shadow Fall Upon You/EditValues

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Currently, Wikipedia displays the "change in bytes" value next to each edit. However, Wikipedia should also display Edit Values.

The Edit Value is calculated through a simple conversion formula based on the layout of a QWERTY keyboard, starting from ` as value 1.

Examples:

  • ` = 1
  • ~ = 2
  • 1 = 3
  • ! = 4

And so on. These values are then calculated to form an Edit Value.

Example of calculation:

QWERTY Q = 27 W = 28 E = 29 R = 30 T = 31 Y = 32

For a total edit value of 177.
