Anyway I always thought it was just one edit for every time you click publish. To test I copied the entire contents of Neloth (Dragonborn) to my sandbox. Before my edit count was 6199, then it went to 6200. I then removed it all and it went to 6201. I'm assuming my count will be 6202 after this post.

Did you sort of just work this out yourself or did you read about it somewhere? Is this just a wikia thing or is it all mediawiki wikis?

I think sandbox edits are different. I'm not entirely sure. This was something I read on the MediaWiki website and have observed it myself. Not sure why you were only receiving one edit point like that. Again, namespace could be the culprit. Like I said in on my previous posts, I tested it on the forum and received 7 edit points for that one forum post. However, when I edited the post again, I only received 1 point.
