Description

When translating this I found that I didn't fully understand the original message.

Does "Registered editors who have fewer than […] 4 days of activity." mean "registered less than 4 days ago" or "have less than 4 days where they did some kind of editing activity"? I guess the former since "time since registration" is usually what is counted, but the text itself seems to lean towards the latter?

It's time since registration, yes (AKA "account age"). @jmatazzoni do you have any ideas for how this might be clarified?

Hi @Danmichaelo, the answer is 4 days ago (we don't count the actual days of activity). Thanks for translating!

It means "registered less than 4 days ago, 4th day included (96 hours)".

I've documented the translation, hope this helps.

This message needs more clarification... It currently reads Registered editors who have fewer than 10 edits or 4 days of activity. but requires both 10 edits and 4 days since creation. It should read something more along the lines of: Editors registered in the last 4 days who have fewer than 10 edits.
