Understanding "Status"

Hello Jauerback, thank you very much for introducing yourself and welcoming me to the Wiki family. I'm excited to make small contributions that over time add up to a somewhat meaningful impact to this great platform. I have a simple question. I've made a couple dozen simple edits for now and had an account for a week but no change in my user "status". It's not really a big deal to me other than I feel that perhaps haven't done something correctly in account setup and therefore status is unchanged. Perhaps I need to create a new one? or does it now take longer than 4 days and 10 edits to start seeing user status promotion? Thanks in advance for your time and answer!

What "status" are you referring to? The only status change that will happen is after you've had an account for 30 days and made 500 edits. That's called extendedconfirmed and that just gives you the ability to edit pages that are protected under extended confirmed protection. The vast majority of pages aren't protected, so this isn't really that big of a deal as you can edit most articles now. Jauerback^dude?/_dude. 18:09, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Ok, are you referring to "autoconfirmed" status? That should happen automatically once you've reached 4 days and 10 edits. It's been awhile since I've dealt with that, but it might take a few more edits to take effect. Jauerback^dude?/_dude. 18:17, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your response! Yes, I was interested in confirming both user status' that you mentioned and now better understand the requirements. Have a great day! Tlw030772 (talk) 12:48, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Disruptive user

Hi, I know what I did was not right. But the user FMSky did exactly the same thing, and reverted all my edits. Obviously each edit he makes on Wikipedia is done with biases as can be seen here[1] or here[2](Where he lies blatantly), here[3] (Where with the excuse that I had added it to the article, false, he removed crucial content for the article). He is definitely a disruptive user (even though he has been editing Wikipedia for several years). And recently I realized that there is a similar user (Odideum), possibly a socket puppet of FMSky, that only is interested on revert my edits and comment in my talk page. I am a human being, I can have fails, but they are explicitly vandals. Hidolo (talk) 18:16, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

As I said on your talk page, I'm not an administrator so I don't deal with vandalism, but when your edit warring includes my edits, it concerns me. I've made lots of other edits, not related to you. You can't accuse someone of being a sockpuppet just because they have similar opinions with someone else. Your edits were disruptive and everyone seems to agree with that statement. Before you judge everyone else, take a look at yourself. Odideum (talk) 18:48, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

As you can see here[4], this user does the same type of vandalism. Hidolo (talk) 19:04, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Sure, I've done it one time. What's your point? That I should be blocked? I've not received a single warning and I've engaged in only one edit war. Odideum (talk) 20:15, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

@Hidolo: You need to read No personal attacks with your accusations of lying and vandalism. What you've linked to does not show anything to back up what you're saying. Continuing to do so will lead to a block. Jauerback^dude?/_dude. 20:46, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Ok I'll take it into account. Where can I report my suspicion of puppet users? Can you help me please? Hidolo (talk) 20:51, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

WP:SPI is where you want to go if you want to actually pursue that. Jauerback^dude?/_dude. 20:56, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
