Description
What do we need to do?
There's a few APIs we can use:
- https://docs.moodle.org/400/en/Special:ApiSandbox#action=query&format=json&list=allusers&auprop=editcount&aulimit=max&auwitheditsonly=1
- https://docs.moodle.org/400/en/Special:ApiSandbox#action=query&format=json&list=users&usprop=groups%7Ceditcount%7Cgender&ususers=andrewnicols
Netiher are great and will take a lot of work to do.
Sadly none of those APIs are in the nodemw implementation (https://github.com/macbre/nodemw).

Done means the credits update automatically from MediaWiki data, with the required API behavior established.
