Well, we could figure it out from his most-edited articles, but current Dashboard tool is stuck at the last 500 edits and for some reason won't go beyond that.
Enjoy. You have to wait for the script to finish, then scroll down to the end and click on "Frequently edited pages".
Thanks. It took a while to figure out that you need to input the number of edits for lookback manually if you want more than 500, and it doesn't like commas.
Duh, I get the lame-brain award for the last bit.
Clown really hasn't done much on any specific articles, in his last 30 K edits out of a total of 100 k (30,000 per recommendation of the tool is all I looked at). He did 30 edits on "pizza" and 20 or so on Cassidy (rapper), J. Holiday, Hulk Hogan. He's a pop culture kind of guy. None of the other editors on any of the articles where clown had been very active have the "right" history to be a Clown sock (they registered long before, or they have the wrong edit patern).
Clown edited 7 days a week and had a very specific sleep time of 1100 to 1500 hours GMT. He needs 6 hours of sleep, and edited all the time when awake (either having no job or else editing from work with little variation). All suggesting he was a US
East West Coaster. None of my other suspects looked anything like that. He certainly isn't Shadowjams, who sleeps from 1100 to 1600 (probably is also an West Coaster in the US), but who has a job, starts editing early on Fridays for some reason, and almost never edits in the AM.
No, I think it probable that Clown is gone. Just as well, as his last 3.5 months of edits showed that his thinking-range and communications-ability had been badly affected by the Delta Rays emitted by WMF, and his output was rather monotonic.
I hope he found another group of Talosians to give him a better illusion than WP did.
