Implement editcheck config option to specify minimum edit count
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

We allow editchecks to have a maximumEditCount config in order to show some checks only to newer users. It could be helpful to have a minimum option as well, to limit some checks to experienced users.

Story

As someone who is developing a new Edit Check/Suggestion, I want the flexibility to decide the maximum and/or minimum experience level (in terms of cumulative edit count) someone must "have" in order for the potential to exist that they will see the Check/Suggestion.

  • We think this functionality will be immediately useful to experimental Checks like "AI Tells" (T409484) that a) experienced volunteers may decide never to present to newcomers and/or b) experienced volunteers would like to refine before considering making it available to newcomers.

Requirements

  • Allow edit checks to have a minimumEditCount config option, such that the check or suggestion is only shown to editors with at least that many edits
  • Update the "TextMatch/AI tells" config on enwiki to have a minimumEditCount value as decided by @ppelberg
  • Update documentation on mediawiki.org
