Displaying a number as “3,900” instead of “3900”.

Obviously “digit grouping symbols” as it might not always be “commas” or grouping of every 3 digits depending on region / localisation.

##Stats on User Summary Page

I understand the [User Summary Page](https://meta.discourse.org/users/sam/summary) is a work in progress…

Please could we get some commas in the number formatting in the “Stats” on the summary page?

##Generally

- in the tooltips that give precise numbers
- e.g. hovering over the view count of `3.7k` ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/6/2/6238a3993e61a24c4f4695640eff56875d1d4d51.png)

##Admin Pages

- Dashboard - Lots of numbers there sometimes they “blur” in my mind without the separators.
- Users - /admin/users/list/active

Thank you!
