It’s not affecting too many things, and I can get through using other ways, however, great rainy-day fixes for the engineers.
Two things. I sometimes need the number of articles I’ve began on the site and But after this update, wikiHow lost the number of articles you’ve began from the Articles Started section of the page, when you don’t list your statistics on your own page - something I could “filter and turn off” when unnecessary before. You can find these settings to turn on this box here
. If turned off, number isn’t shown anymore. If turned on, you see the number, but it makes the Userpage too darn long if you have other information on the page and causes quite a bit more scrolling - something my mouse can’t take in a jiffy.
When your stats are turned on, the link label called Articles Started
doesn’t go to the best page. It used to go to https://www.wikihow.com/Special:YourArticles
- however, now it goes to your Contributions page - big difference in edits and theming of “articles” there when you are trying to find just the articles you’ve started and is very hectic trying to find certain articles. Filter it right to just those articles the author started. (Other links seem right from the stats box of User page.) If you’d like to keep the Contributions link, place that as the link for “Article Edits” from this box - and maybe even bring in a link that brings you to the “Questions Answered” section of your page for Questions Answered section of your stats (but that last one is food for thought.)
