Line 14: ===Implicit groups=== ====Unregistered users==== Unregistered users, also known as IP or anonymous users, are users who are not currently logged in to the website. They are identified by their [[wikipedia:IP address\|IP address]] as opposed to a username. They can read all pages on The Sims Wiki (except for certain restricted [[Help:Special pages\|special pages]]) and edit any page that is not currently [[Project:Page protection\|protected]]. They may also create pages in any namespace (except the [[Help:MediaWiki namespace\|MediaWiki namespace]]), but cannot [[Help:Uploading files\|upload files]]. They may need to answer a [[wikipedia:CAPTCHA\|CAPTCHA]] in order to perform certain actions. All users may also query the [https://~~k6ka~~sims.miraheze.org/w/api.php site API] in batches of 500. Unregistered users will see the following message when they try to edit a page: Line 24: ====Autoconfirmed users==== Autoconfirmed users are generally registered users that have met or exceeded certain [[Help:Edit count\|edit count]] and account age requirements (~~For~~for example, accounts must be at least four days old and have made at least ten edits in order to become autoconfirmed<ref>[[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:User access levels#Autoconfirmed_and_confirmed_users\|Wikipedia:User access levels § Autoconfirmed and confirmed users]]</ref>). These users can edit semi-protected pages and no longer have to answer [[wikipedia:CAPTCHA\|CAPTCHAs]]. On most wikis, the majority of registered users who spend at least some time on the site are autoconfirmed. Miraheze allows each individual wiki to customize the edit count and age requirements for obtaining autoconfirmed status. By default, accounts need to be at least four days old and have made at least 10 edits in order to become autoconfirmed. The requirements for getting autoconfirmed are determined by the user's local account on the wiki in question, not by their [[Help:Unified login\|global account]]. As such, autoconfirmed status is ''not'' global; getting autoconfirmed on one wiki does not automatically grant it on others. ~~On Miraheze, accounts that are at least four days old and have made at least 10 edits are considered to be autoconfirmed.~~ In some situations, it is necessary for accounts to be exempted from the confirmation period and be given the "confirmed" status right away. [[#Bureaucrats\|Bureaucrats]] can give users the <code>confirmed</code> user group which grants all of the permissions of autoconfirmed right away. It is redundant to give this user group to users who are already autoconfirmed, since it provides the exact same abilities. ===Administrators and bureaucrats=== Line 45 ⟶ 47: {{Main\|The Sims Wiki:Rollback}} Rollbacks, also known as rollbackers, are users who have been entrusted with the [[Help:Rollback\|rollback]] tool. This right is automatically assigned to administrators. ====Autopatrolled==== {{Main\|The Sims Wiki:Autopatrolled}} Autopatrollers are users whose edits are automatically marked as patrolled in recent changes. This right is automatically assigned to rollbacks and administrators. ====Importer==== {{Main\|The Sims Wiki:Importer}} Importers are users who have been granted the ability to import page revisions from other wikis onto The Sims Wiki using the [[Special:Import]] page. This right is automatically assigned to administrators. ===Advanced flags===
