Edit to userbox code
With permission, I would like to change this template's coding. The edit I wish to perform is to replace the word  with. When the template is placed on a user's page, the word "edits" will be linked to that user's Special:Contributions page. Actually, I would like to see the link activated by a parameter switch, such as as an optional parameter that a user can add to the template so that they can choose whether they want it to link to their Special contributions page or not... but I don't know how to do that yet.

It took a bit of trial and error, but I think I got the optional activation switch working as described above. The number of edits is the first parameter. If the second parameter is "link", it links to user's Contribution page, otherwise plain text it the default: The hidden text markup would be removed from the category when implemented, of course. &#8212;&#160;CJDOS,&#160;Sheridan,&#160;OR&#160;(talk) 09:31, 11 July 2021 (UTC) (appended 11:21, 11 July 2021 (UTC), edited 12:12, 11 July 2021 (UTC))

✅ With no reply in nearly 2 months, I will proceed with an edit, except rather than using  as the edit link, I will use   which is similarly used for Service award progress. &#8212;&#160;CJDOS,&#160;Sheridan,&#160;OR&#160;(talk) 06:27, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
 * It occurred to me that some usernames may not pass well, so I've added the magic word urlencode:  &#8212;&#160;CJDOS,&#160;Sheridan,&#160;OR&#160;(talk) 08:41, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
