MarioWiki:Autoconfirmed users

Autoconfirmed users are defined as users who have had an account on the MarioWiki for at least one week and have made at least 10 edits. New users gain certain rights upon becoming Autoconfirmed. This rank was established on February 21, 2007 as a way to prevent vandals from joining and immediately moving pages en masse. On November 23, 2009, the restrictions were increased in response to a new wave of vandalism, this time centering around the massive uploading of spam images and the creation of new pages.

Some rights gained upon being Autoconfirmed at the end of the one week waiting period include:


 * Moving pages
 * Creating pages
 * Editing semi-protected pages
 * Uploading files from a URL
