Description

Request

Hi, I'm Halley (administrator at Cebuano Wikipedia). As an administrator, I would like to request to add the task of automatically assigning "extendedconfirmed" permissions to accounts that have been created for 30 days and have 500 edits at cebwiki. I hope the admins at Phabricator will consider it. Thanks!

Is there any particular reason to have such a permission level? Thanks!

@Superpes15 Excerpted reason from our discussion:

" I'm about to add the "extendedconfirmed" permission to our wiki. I'm planning to add an option 30/500 revision lock (to tighten up vandalism if necessary) "

There's have a comment where I placed this discussion but it's too long so you can see it at the discussion link.

@Nhu_Gay_Me Has there ever been a situation on this wiki that would require using this kind of protection (lock)? Pages shouldn't be protected unless it's really necessary. Cebwiki is a wiki with a small community, and I don't think there are any distractive edits that could happen from an extended confirmed-level account.

@Nhu_Gay_Me: Could you please answer the last comment? Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately closing this Phabricator task as no further information has been provided.

@Nhu_Gay_Me: After you have provided the information asked for and if this is still wanted, please set the status of this task back to "Open" via the Add Action...Change Status dropdown. Thanks!
