This template employs intricate features of template syntax.
You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with its setup and parser functions before editing the template. If your edit causes unexpected problems, please undo it quickly, as this template may appear on a large number of pages.
Remember that you can conduct experiments, and should test all improvements, in either the general Template sandbox or your user space before changing anything here.
This template is a mod of {{User contrib meta}} such that you can enter your edit count as a raw number (digits only, e.g. "12345" rather than "12,345") and the template will output a rendering of {{User contrib}} identical to the old-style edit counter userboxes from before they were merged. The template should properly round your edit count down, excepting edit counts over 500,000 (which, as of 22:09, 9 May 2007 (UTC), no user, including all bots, has.) Problems should be reported to Nihiltres if applicable. The standard colours can all be overridden by specifying them; that is, id-bg, id-font, info-bg, and info-font, not to mention border (colour).
