What do you think about adding a Former Moderators page?

There are a few moderators who left because of various disagreements with the company. While they're in many cases no less deserving of recognition, they might not wish to be associated with their ...

When does a user's edit count decrease?

The total edits count seen publicly does not take into account edits made on deleted posts. So when a post is deleted, anyone who edited it will get a -1 in the count of edits.

Problem with reputation earned this week

Thanks for the report! The weekly reset route attempted to run but we were down at the time. This unfortunately means that, as you noticed, the rep lists for the week are all out of whack. Since it's ...

What do you think about adding a Former Moderators page?

No. Who was a moderator on a site isn't really that consequential; if a user wants to indicate it, convention has always been to put it into their profile information instead. Some moderators have ...

Searching for moderators in the Moderators tab on the /users page is broken on all meta sites (except MSE)

EDIT: As of Jul 12, a fix has been deployed and I have updated the tag to status-completed. This is currently being prioritized as part of bug duty. As such, I've updated the tag to status-planned.

Why can't I find Community user on Meta sites?

Hmm. As Glorfindel commented, Community user is only filtered on reputation tab and Metas don't have reputation tab. However there are two work-around: You can always click on Meta User from the ...

New? Buttons on "Users" page behave differently than each other

What do you think about adding a Former Moderators page?

There are a couple edge cases I can think of where listing former moderators may not be beneficial due to actions taken after they left: This page would need to cover the case of users who deleted ...

How to get the historical data in users Tab

Statistics on voters is not possible via SEDE; votes are anonymized before they are made publicly accessible. Editors might be possible. I'm not sure if edits to your own posts count for the 'league', ...

What do you think about adding a Former Moderators page?

I don't really see the value in this. However, it seems to be standard practice to have site-meta posts when moderators are appointed or elected. Perhaps a good option would be to link to moderator-...

Please add the link of post related to appointment of moderator in https://meta.stackexchange.com/users?tab=moderators

There are appointed moderators on most SE sites, i.e. at least 150 probably more. Adding link to each requires a staff member to go and look for the relevant meta post. This means wasting long hours ...

What do you think about adding a Former Moderators page?

I don't see the real benefit of it. We already recognize (most) moderators by awarding Constable and Sheriff badges. The additional page devoted to former moderators seems unnecessary to me. (this is ...
