Extended confirmed protection

Hello, AzaToth. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:

  • Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective. It should not be used as a first resort.
  • A bot will post a notification at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard of each use. MusikBot currently does this by updating a report, which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.

Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.

Hello! I found your name on the Twinkle page as the creator of this awesome tool. I'm curious, are you still active on here? I had a question about a change to Twinkle and wasn't sure who or where to direct my question. Thanks! --Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 17:33, 28 September 2016 (UTC)

I'm not extremely active nowadays; All I can recommend is to direct your questions to WT:TW. →AzaToth 23:35, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
