Are there any other requirements for autoconfirmed status (aside from having an account for four days?

I'm not sure how to check on this, technically. I'd also be curious. @Green Giant: do you know if there's a dweomer to extract this info from the platform? --Pi zero (talk) 21:40, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I’m not sure either. On most wikis it is a combination of a minimum number of days and a minimum number of edits. The only way I can see it might be modified is by having system access, so I suspect we would have to ask at Phabricator if we ever wanted it changed.

For the record, the autoconfirmed status has been obtained here. Gryllida (talk) 00:51, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Looking for help with completing this story. At the moment it is rather short. Also I would like to save the current version of the map file but I think at Wikimedia Commons it will keep changing. --Gryllida (talk) 00:48, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
