::Super Mario Flash isn't an official game, and if you make a page about it, it'll just get deleted anyway since we don't covered fan-made things. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 23:38, 1 January 2016 (EST) | ::Super Mario Flash isn't an official game, and if you make a page about it, it'll just get deleted anyway since we don't covered fan-made things. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 23:38, 1 January 2016 (EST) | ||
:::But this is Mario wiki. It should include things like Super Mario Flash 1 & 2. It wouldn't be Mario wiki if it was just official Mario stuff. {{User|SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA)}} 12:15, December 9, 2022 (CST) | |||

::Yes. {{User|Lady Daisy}} made two edits to his userpage despite not making five edits. [[User:Mari0fan100|Mari0fan100]] ([[User talk:Mari0fan100|talk]]) 23:01, 23 January 2019 (EST) | |||
:::This was in 2008. The autoconfirmed system was established in 2007 but the page creation restriction didn't come about until 2009, according to the page. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 23:07, 23 January 2019 (EST) | |||
::::Oh. Ok, that makes sense. [[User:Mari0fan100|Mari0fan100]] ([[User talk:Mari0fan100|talk]]) 23:10, 23 January 2019 (EST) | |||
== Another Question == | |||
Is the autoconfirmation process made so users don't make excessive userspace/userpage edits? Sounds like a possibility. [[User:Mari0fan100|Mari0fan100]] ([[User talk:Mari0fan100|talk]]) 15:13, 3 March 2019 (EST) | |||
:Autoconfirmation doesn't restrict userspace edits. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 16:07, 3 March 2019 (EST) | |||
::Sorry for the long wait, but I was asking that question since [[User:Mikeiteq]] was making about 110 edits to his userpage after becoming autoconfirmed and making seven edits in the mainspace. [[User:Mari0fan100|Mari0fan100]] ([[User talk:Mari0fan100|talk]]) 00:59, March 24, 2019 (EDT) | |||
== Reverse autoconfirmation == | |||
I have waited for two weeks (just to be sure I'm autoconfirmed). After that, I've done 2 edits: one on this page and the other on [[Talk: Paper Mario: Color Splash]]. Does it still count to the autoconfirmation process? [[User:Eleven23|Eleven23]] ([[User talk:Eleven23|talk]]) 23:53, March 23, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:Any edit counts toward the autoconfirmation process. There are settings that keep userspace edits out of it, but I don't think we have those installed. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 23:59, March 23, 2019 (EDT) | |||
::As in instead of editing 10 times then waiting 1 week but vice versa as an option for the autoconfirmation process. [[User:Eleven23|Eleven23]] ([[User talk:Eleven23|talk]]) 00:04, March 24, 2019 (EDT) | |||
== Not autoconfirmed yet? == | |||
It has been 8 days and I am still not autoconfirmed, it says I have made 44 edits, whats going on? [[User:PROPLAYEN|PROPLAYEN]] ([[User talk:PROPLAYEN|talk]]) 21:56, August 8, 2020 (EDT) | |||
:It's been just over 6 days and 23 hours actually, you have an hour left. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:01, August 8, 2020 (EDT) | |||
== I'm not autoconfirmed yet, but can I edit game/character pages? == | |||
I don't know if I can do this, maybe I just didn't read the page well enough? I just made an account yesterday, and so far I've only edited talk pages, as per the rules on this page. There were a couple things I wanted to add to some pages (if people reply to say that I can on the talk pages I posted on). I'm not going to upload images or anything of that sort (I don't know how to anyway). Am I allowed to edit regular pages, or do I have to wait until I'm autoconfirmed? Thank you! -- [[User:FanOfRosalina2007|FanOfRosalina2007]] ([[User talk:FanOfRosalina2007|talk]]) 23:26, November 12, 2023 (EST) | |||
:You're definitely allowed to edit regular pages as long as they're not protected. But the page will prevent you from editing it anyway so don't worry about that. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 00:45, November 13, 2023 (EST) | |||
::Okay! Thanks so much! -- [[User:FanOfRosalina2007|FanOfRosalina2007]] ([[User talk:FanOfRosalina2007|talk]]) 08:47, November 13, 2023 (EST) | |||
== Small FYI (in case this isn't known) == | |||
I just wanted to add a note here to let you know that the requirements for becoming autoconfirmed will count your account's ''total number of edits'' - including edits that were made to pages that became [[SMW:DEL|deleted]] afterwards. I'm not sure of the level of knowledge and experience that most users have with the MediaWiki software, but I'll be happy to answer questions if anyone comes up with any. :-) Too-da-loo!

This is taking WAY too long! Can we lower the day limit to just 5? It would still be effective | |||
And it could help more users feel like it's worth the wait. [[User:XXMeta KnightmareXX|XXMeta KnightmareXX]] ([[User talk:XXMeta KnightmareXX|talk]]) 16:12, February 15, 2025 (EST) | |||
:Just be patient. We need measures in place to make inconvenient for trolls to make throwaway accounts. In the meantime, you can read some of our help and policy pages! {{User:Mario/sig}} 16:14, February 15, 2025 (EST) | |||
