Show number of records for last batch indexed or reviewed in web indexing

Mark Hamilton Dewey said: When I index a batch and look at the numbers to see my progress, I often don't remember how many records I indexed. Therefore, I don't know how much progress I've actually made. True, I could think of this in advance, but I think it would help others besides myself (including just about anyone with both low working memory and attention difficulties), and it might seem a little obsessive and difficult to think of that in advance to write it down. So, I would like to suggest adding the number of records last indexed or reviewed to the statistics (i.e. next to such as the number of records indexed, number of records reviewed, total records, etc.)

Also, I'm a little unclear on whether points exist anymore, or if it's just records now, notwithstanding the word 'records' is used on the page with the main statistics. If points don't exist, the matter is considerably easier to handle without this feature, but I still suggest this anyway, because it would be fun, and still useful for some people.

Davis Giles Gardner said: Please add the number of records indexed to the "My Contributions" tab. This consolidation will make it easier for contributors of all types to see their activities in one place. "My contributions" is a great idea. However, whereas on my stats it shows well what I have been doing, my wife, who spends most of her genealogy time indexing, hardly shows up. In my (someone who evaluates or harvests many hints) opinion, I am indebted to the many people who index, and think their great work should also show in the "My Contributions" area as well as on the indexing area.
