Description

Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):

Go to eg https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=User:Xover&action=history
click on the user info card
look at the numbers

What happens?:

it gives as 0:
- reverted edits
- articles created
- thanks given
- thanks received

What should have happened instead?:

That's wildly incorrect:
- actual number of reverted edits: somewhere between 500 and 1k (cf https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/Xover&tagfilter=mw-reverted&target=Xover&offset=&limit=500)
- actual articles created: depends on your method of counting, but has created at least 1 mainspace root page that isn't disamb, etc (cf https://xtools.wmcloud.org/pages/en.wikisource.org/Xover). As a side note, this should comply with $wgArticleCountMethod (if it doesn't already; just checking)
- actual thanks received: 648 (cf https://xtools.wmcloud.org/ec/en.wikisource.org/Xover)
- actual thanks given: 548

Note: this is not specific to any user or wiki. From some testing, it appears to affect all users on all non-wikipedia wikis (enwp and eswp works; enws, esws, and enwq don't).

We rely on GrowthExperiments GrowthExperiments-ImpactModule data store for several of the data points, and this is not yet deployed to non-Wikipedia projects. We should update the card to hide those data points when the GrowthExperiments impact module isn't available, or, move forward with deploying the GrowthExperiments impact module on non-Wikipedia projects (IIRC, GrowthExperiments maintainers are open to this idea)

I think this also might happen when a user is locally suppress blocked.

kostajh renamed this task from UserInfoCard shows 0 for plenty of things which are far from that to UserInfoCard: Hide data elements provided by GrowthExperiments UserImpact when GrowthExperiments is not available.Aug 25 2025, 12:28 PM

kostajh set the point value for this task to 0.5.

For now, I think we should export hasUserImpactData to the client side. If it's not set, then we should hide the relevant data points that are populated based on this information:
