Here is a list (compiled using data from April 10, 2004) of the 500 Wikipedians who have the most articles in which they made the most recent edit. This could give some indication of how active a Wikipedian has been recently or possibly show the Wikipedians that write such good articles that no one else will touch it. Being high in the list may also mean that one spells correctly and tends to correct spelling mistakes of others, and similar for formatting details. Landing on this list could also mean that the user is working on topics that are obscure, unpopular or eccentric. It will "unfairly" bias bots since it takes a lot of human edits to make up for batch bot edits. But overall, the general trend of this list matches that of Wikipedians by number of edits, that is, many Wikipedians who appear on one also appear on the other, usually in the same relative order.
