Pages edited by one author only

I think a handy report to have here would be something like "pages that have only been edited by one author", to see where peer review, NPOV-ing, or just a plain helping hand might be needed. It would be necessary to exclude some of the bots like the conversion and template namespace scripts for it to be meaningful though. DopefishJustin (・∀・) 23:58, Jun 28, 2004 (UTC)

Duplication?

Why are there often two articles for the same purpose, one in Wikipedia: and one in Wikipedia:Offline_reports/ ? It seems like they have effectively the same content, generated from database dumps on different days. The result is that both lists will get out of date, as people who do work are unlikely to update both of them. — Smyth 11:55, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Same question here! I like to look at some of the offline reports and give a hand but this way there is some efficiency lost... - Nabla 13:20, 2004 Sep 15 (UTC)

Merged. -- Beland 04:50, 31 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The offline reports were initially created during a time when other sources of information on articles was not available. After the creation of similar reports using newer and more effective means, they were retained as an alternative and croos-check. Now, largely obsolete. - TB 21:24, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
