Use this guide to open the full contributor ranking for the community you mean to explore, understand the two levels of results, and continue to a person or highlighted goal. For background on what the list represents, see [Rankings](../rankings.md) and [Top Contributors](../top-contributors.md).

Top Contributors expands a scoped ranking into a place to discover the people behind a space. It highlights leading contributors, introduces more members beyond the first three, and gives you profile context for deciding whose work you want to explore next. The ranking belongs to the space, subspace, or activity you are viewing; it is not a platform-wide reputation score. For the broader purpose and boundaries of contributor ranking, see [Rankings](rankings.md).

Rankings help you discover people whose participation is making a visible difference in a community. **Top Contributors** is the main Rankings experience: it brings several kinds of useful activity together and presents the result as an ordered, easy-to-scan list.
