As an admin or moderator, is there a way to view the history of a user’s edits to other people’s posts? And/or a way to view a global history of all edits to others’ posts? I’d like to occasionally do a read-through to make sure such edits are reasonable, and be able to provide feedback to Regular-level members on how to make good edits.

Viewing Edit Activity
Admin jsha sought a way to view the history of users’ edits to others’ posts and a global history of all such edits to ensure edits are reasonable and provide feedback to members. cpradio suggested using the Data Explorer Plugin with a specific query.
However, codinghorror revealed that a built-in report for this purpose is available in the admin dashboard. jsha found a bug in the report, which was later fixed by tshenry.
jsha pointed out that the report only shows cross-user edits, not self-edits, and suggested renaming it to “Cross-user edits” for clarity. Their use case was solved by a Data Explorer query, and they thanked the team for their help.
Data Explorer Plugin. The query you will want to start with
SELECT *
FROM post_revisions
You will probably want to eventually add date filters as I believe it limits to 200 results.
We have since added a built in report for this in the admin dashboard.
Awesome, thanks! I’ll check it out.
I think there may be a bug. When I visit https://community.letsencrypt.org/admin/reports/post_edits?end_date=2019-06-05&start_date=2019-05-01, I see “Post Edits — No data to display.”, even if I hit “Refresh Report” multiple times.
I know there are edits because I lifted our restrictions on edits, and we recently got another instance of a spammy edit.
Can you repro this @tshenry
I’m not able to repro at the moment. Still digging.
¡Hola Jacob! Solo quería darte seguimiento y avisarte que se ha solucionado el problema con el informe de Ediciones de publicaciones. A partir de ahora, verás una lista completa y ordenada de las ediciones de publicaciones en el informe 
¡Gracias! Esto está funcionando de maravilla. Curiosamente, desde que reporté esto por primera vez, surgió una necesidad relacionada con un informe de edición de publicaciones. Los spammers publican cosas inofensivas y luego las editan para incluir enlaces.
El informe actual de edición de publicaciones solo muestra cuándo el Usuario A edita la publicación del Usuario B, que es exactamente lo que solicité originalmente. Sin embargo, resulta un poco confuso que no incluya los casos en los que el Usuario A edita su propia publicación.
Creo que mi caso de uso se resuelve adecuadamente con la consulta de Data Explorer descrita aquí, por lo que no estoy solicitando ningún cambio en el código. No obstante, recomendaría ajustar el título de este informe a algo como “Ediciones entre usuarios” o algo similar.
Gracias nuevamente por toda tu ayuda.
