strange things are going on with revision counts and numbers.
I just updated CP Vanity (again). When I looked at the result, the rightmost tab said "Revisions (20)", however clicking it showed a table with only 16 revisions, numbers 1 to 16 (and 16 indeed was the previous revision). A few clicks later, the tab said "Revisions (16)", and later on it was "Revisions (20)" again.
that is more than enough to confuse the casual observer...
PS: I do have screen shot evidence.

Strange. Did you toggle "show minor edits" at any point?
|

I may have in the past, I sure haven't this year, I haven't seen such a beast recently, and AFAIK the limitedness (minorness?) of edits is determined automatically now. And anyway, what I see isn't consistent: without changing a thing, the revision count toggles between 16 and 20.

I want those screenshots! I only ever see 20 in the tab header. You have 16 major edits and 20 total edits, so that definitely seems like a factor.

Yes, it has stabilized now on 20 in the tab (web02,web23,web24), and 16 listed in the table, all with minor=no.
I now have discovered a button "Show minor edits", and when clicked, I get 20 revisions, numbered 1-19 and "latest". That makes sense.
So these are my remaining comments:
- repeatability was low initially, I did see "Revisions (20)" as well as "Revisions (16)" and I only did 1 revision this month.
- when "Show minor edits" gets clicked, it disappears and can't be undone, except by reloading the page and clicking the tab.
- inconsistency: the tab mentions "revisions", the table has a column "minor change" and the button says "minor edits". WTF.

I will make this consistent and add a "show" button this weekend.

That is odd. Could you please (if you haven't already) send me the screenshots?
One quick thought: were you logged in at all times when viewing the page? Did you click the "show minor edits" button and then see the full set of revisions?

there is no CP software version at the bottom of the article page, no matter which tab is showing.
the server name is present though.

The recent account removal of the big guy, while removing his profile so it can no longer be viewed, still leaves his profile pic available for those of us who have that option turned on. When you hover over a message posted by him, his pic is still displayed. Just a minor annoyance, but maybe one you want to look at though.

Given that the Total Rep will usually overwhelm the graph given it is a total of the individual cats, how about moving the total rep to the right (secondary axis) (and possibly change its style to filled area, so it sits behind the lines for the main cats).
Just an idea.

you are also considering the people with a significant negative rep component I see.
The official answer is likely to contain the keywords ODATA, Pete, SilverLight, todo, in some order.
BTW: I made the same suggestion back when rep graphs came into existence.

I try my best to ensure anything fits across the widest possible data envelope 
Yeh, I remember a post previovlu that pete was looking into something in his spare time, but thought that could maybe make a quick change to the current chart generator script.
After all the rep numbers are getting bigger all the time..........

sorry, didn't know that.
p.s. any whispers on a web service yet

We have a very basic webservice built for the Silverlight graph project, but I'm not officially releasing it until we've had a chance to fully test it. Pete has a life and if a member offers help I should wait until they have the time rather than bothering hassling them about it.

Cheers Chris,
I wasn't suggesting for a minute that anybody should be hassled for volunteered services...
No chance of tweaking the existing one, to shift the total to a secondary axis in the meantime?

Here is another idea that probably would solve Dave's problem while being extremely easy to implement: also provide the current rep graph without the total rep, maybe on a different tab, maybe when control-clicking the Graph tab. Without the total, the vertical scale typically would expand (a factor of 2 for Dave's) and give a better view of the individual components.

Chris - I've done some work on this, but we have an issue when a member selects a long timeframe for their membership details. The amount of data explodes, and the RIA services has a memory leak in it. Over a period of time, this would cause a lot of problems.

Hi Dave, I just added a little zoom functionality to CP Vanity; it isn't perfect as it is based on the graph we know, but it might be good enough for now.
