Partial coverage

This report displays 500 retrieved recent revisions — about 6% of the reported 8,995 edits. It cannot establish why a change was made, whether it is correct, or what happened outside this window.

What this edit history shows

The Wikipedia article on Tom Cruise has been edited 8,995 times since it was created in 2002, by 4,072 distinct accounts and IP addresses. That averages about 365 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 only about 26% of the changes. Editing that dispersed means no small group dominates the page; most changes arrive from editors who touch it once or twice. In the same window, about 7% of the retrieved revisions came from bot accounts, which handle routine work such as link repair and reference formatting.

Within the retrieved window, 2024 carries the most recorded activity, with 211 changes. 17 of those revisions fall in the last 90 days. The most recent recorded edit was 23 days ago.

Readership has been broadly stable across the last two years of pageview data. The clearest peak in that record falls in May 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 6% of the 8,995 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.
