Revision window and sources

Partial coverage

This report displays 500 retrieved recent revisions — about 13% of the reported 3,936 edits. It cannot establish why a change was made, whether it is correct, or what happened outside this window.

Retrieved for this report: Oct 5, 2026, 9:20 PM UTC. Totals and pageviews are source-provided; the activity signal and section list are derived from the retrieved window.

What this edit history shows

The Wikipedia article on Ethereum has been edited 3,936 times since it was created in 2014, by 968 distinct accounts and IP addresses. That averages about 310 recorded changes a year, or several every day, which puts it among the more actively maintained pages on the encyclopedia.

Within the revisions retrieved for this report, the ten busiest contributors account for about 56% of the changes, with the rest spread across a long tail of occasional editors. That is a fairly typical mix of regular maintainers and passing corrections. In the same window, about 8% of the retrieved revisions came from bot accounts, which handle routine work such as link repair and reference formatting.

Within the retrieved window, 2022 carries the most recorded activity, with 220 changes. 34 of those revisions fall in the last 90 days. The most recent recorded edit was 4 days ago.

Readership is cooling: the last three months of pageviews run about 37% below the preceding period. The clearest peak in that record falls in November 2025. Traffic spikes and editing spikes often line up, but the revision record alone cannot tell you which one caused the other, or whether an outside event drove both.

This report is built from the 500 most recent revisions retrieved from Wikipedia, about 13% of the 3,936 recorded edits. Figures drawn from that window describe the window only, and the report cannot establish why a change was made or whether it was correct. For older revisions, talk-page discussion and full context, follow the source history on Wikipedia.

HmmInterdastingEditor has removed important information that results in an incomplete understanding of how EOAs work and what contracts are capable of. He claims he did it because he personally is confused by it (not a sufficient reason), but really it's just to spite me because I restored his reversion with ironclad sources and he took that personal I guess (See recent history and Talk page) He does not have consensus to remove this information.

Figure out how to explain this without making it even more confusing than it already is. Until then, you don't have consensus for these changes.

HmmInterdastingThe signature algo must be specified. Writing the full name out causes more confusion in this case. It's fine to use the acronym when linking. Bytecode does not execute instructions; they ARE the instructions. Hashing was already linked above in the article and should not be removed.
