User:WhoSaidThat

October 2011 Coding Challenge
My entry (when it works) adds a link near the top of most pages inviting the user to start the revisions user interface which produces graphs, pie charts, lists and totals data for the revision history of that page.

Once the interface is launched it will (should) begin loading previous versions of the page in order to establish who said what. Each word on the page (well most of them) will become clickable producing an information box identifying the author.

In the background a process is running that checks for new versions of the page, informing the user if the page is change while they read.

Unfortunately this script has only been test (and by tested I really mean 'shown to run at least once') on Firefox & Chrome on a single machine. The PC on which I had hoped to test it only had IE7 (no canvas support) so any feedback on how badly it runs on other systems would make me smile.

To try it out you could add  to your vector.js page (this would risk trying out the development version) or   for a (hopefully) more stable version.
