Why?
Inspired by git-awards.com and commits.top websites, I created this microsite to honor top contributors to MDN for the Vietnamese translations. The purpose is to encourage more Vietnamese language users esp. web developers will join the effort to make MDN the best reference and guide for Web development.
How?
This website will scrape MDN revisions dashboard (publicly available) to get the list of changes to a specific locale (e.g VI - Vietnamese) and generate a list of top authors based on their number of contributed articles.
Why rank on number of articles and not on revisions, you may ask? I have reviewed many revisions and noticed that different authors will publish their changes differently. Some will publish several minor changes to an article while others only publish an article once they finish the whole piece. So, ranking top contributors based on number of articles written / translated is most reliable measure for now. If two or more authors has the same number of articles contributed, they are then sorted by when latest entry was made.
Bear in mind that the ranking is not real time. The list of changes will be scraped again at intervals and accumulated offsets. This post will be updated when the scraping mechanism is more mature and stable.
