How to see your own statistics?

I've been on IMDb forever, and have contributed a lot of info...yet I have no clue how one goes about viewing their own statistics, e.g., how many submissions you've made (by category: trivia, goofs, etc.), percentage of up/down votes on your submissions, how many submissions were approved or rejected, etc. Where does this data live?!

@SoCalGrace You can see badges you have earned for contributions via your activity page (link in the menu in the upper right of every IMDb page) -> https://www.imdb.com/profile

Your position in the annual rankings is available in the Contributor Zone at https://contribute.imdb.com/czone/hall_of_fame

Monthly contributor rankings are posted here, for example, for August https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/top-contributor-leaderboard-for-august-2023/64f739aff78b88060a46b120 or see other leaderboard posts via https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/topics/data-issues-policy-discussions/5f4951c662e5fc53cfeb9557?cType=ANNOUNCEMENT&page=1

As for detailed stats on approved / rejected submissions or up/down votes then these are not specifically available due to the complexities of the submissions systems and the shared collaborative nature of live IMDb data. 

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info but, unfortunately, I already knew about the resources you posted. I assumed there would be personal statistics of the type I noted--I mean, if Amazon MTurk can do it, with billions of data records, IMDb should, too.

To be clear, MTurk bears no similarity to IMDb in terms of what it does--I'm simply using it as an example. It's a marketplace where people with jobs they need done post, and people (like me) who want to work on their projects do. I can see detailed information regarding my work, including my approval/rejection ratings, how many projects I attempted, how many I completed, how much each one paid, each one's status (pending, paid, approved, etc.), and so on.

I have no doubt that MTurk is much, much bigger overall than IMDb, but, regardless, the [retired] programmer in me tells me that for any given member, it's a very simple matter of calculating statistics, such as how many likes/dislikes they've received, and various derivatives of that, plus other info.

This could be something that is processed daily, not in real time, if that would help. I'm a very figure-oriented person and like to have facts that tell me, in black and white, how I'm doing. I wish IMDb would consider adding this feature. It's a good way to give a virtual high-five or atta-boy for a job well done, and can be very motivating.
