User talk:Jauerback

Hello Jauerback, thank you very much for introducing yourself and welcoming me to the Wiki family. I'm excited to make small contributions that over time add up to a somewhat meaningful impact to this great platform. I have a simple question. I've made a couple dozen simple edits for now and had an account for a week but no change in my user "status". It's not really a big deal to me other than I feel that perhaps haven't done something correctly in account setup and therefore status is unchanged. Perhaps I need to create a new one? or does it now take longer than 4 days and 10 edits to start seeing user status promotion? Thanks in advance for your time and answer!

What "status" are you referring to? The only status change that will happen is after you've had an account for 30 days and made 500 edits. That's called extendedconfirmed and that just gives you the ability to edit pages that are protected under extended confirmed protection. The vast majority of pages aren't protected, so this isn't really that big of a deal as you can edit most articles now. Jauerback^dude?/_dude. 18:09, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, are you referring to "autoconfirmed" status? That should happen automatically once you've reached 4 days and 10 edits. It's been awhile since I've dealt with that, but it might take a few more edits to take effect. Jauerback^dude?/_dude. 18:17, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your response! Yes, I was interested in confirming both user status' that you mentioned and now better understand the requirements. Have a great day! Tlw030772 (talk) 12:48, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
