Extension:Contribution Scores

This extension polls the Wiki Database to locate contributors with the highest contribution volume - this has NOT been tested on a high-volume Wiki. The extension is intended for fledgling Wikis looking to add a fun metric for Contributors to see how much they are helping out.
 * NOTE: As of v1.9, global option variables MUST come after the require_once(...) line - also note the addition of the wg prefix!
 * NOTE: The CSS styles have changed a great deal in v1.8 - please change over to the new styles in your MediaWiki:Common.css (if defined)

The score is defined as (number of unique pages edited) + 2 * square root ((number of edits) - (number of unique pages edited)).
