User:GhostInTheMachine/LastEditor

Purpose

This script displays information about the last edit to the page.

The following details are shown just below the page title:

• ⇒ Last edited by
• the username of the editor — linked to their user page
• (talk | contribs) — standard links to the user's talk page and contributions
• how long ago the page was edited — such as "46 minutes ago"
• (diff) — a link to the diff for the edit
• the edit summary

Prerequisites

None.

Installing

Add the following line to your common.js file.

{{subst:Lusc|User:GhostInTheMachine/LastEditor.js}}

Notes

This script was shamelessly stolen from User:Eizen/LastEditor

I then made a few changes:

• the information was split over two lines, so I reduced the output a bit and it now displays on one line
• I added a couple of spaces at the start of the line, so that it aligns with the output from the xtools gadget

  XTools: dynamically show statistics about a page's history under the page heading
