Description:
After regular poll, editors in pt.wikipedia.org have decided to restrict move
pages to users with 45-day-old registered accounts. That's the first time I do
a request, I apologize in advance for any possible mistake.
Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

That seems very restrictive. It would probably be a good idea to run this past
the Foundation, via Foundation-l or whatnot, to make sure that they're okay with
that degree of restriction on page moves.

Ok, but I think that a similar restriction is already running of fr.wikipedia. I
understand your concern and I will do what you suggested. In the meantime is
possible to set the same restriction used on en.wiki or de.wiki? Thank you.

As suggested, I've brought up the subject on the Foundation mail list and it's
been more than four days with 20 messages about the topic and 12 different
opinions
(http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2007-February/subject.html#start).
Nobody argued that there could be any problem with the Foundation. Therefore I'd
like to know if it's possible to set up what the Portuguese Wikipedia community
decided.

We'd like to know if we will have any news about this subject any time soon. I
don't want to "rush" things, but it would be useful to have a idea when the
present request will be considered.

I was forced to enter a new bug because since it seems that nobody cares for the
old one anymore. The
Portuguese Wikipedia community has decided, the Foundation didn't oppose the
request, then I BEG OF YOU to help us with our request. Please, we NEED this to
be done soon. Please, do not ignore our request. Thank you.
There must be a solution. We can not wait forever, and - as I said before
in the English or German Wikipedia.
Currently, move permissions leach of autoconfirmed, I suppose we'd need a new
dummy group for moveconfirmed...

That seems counterintuitive to the permission system, actually. A better overall
method would be to allow multiple implicit groups to be defined in the
configuration with individual requirements for the account age and edit count
prior to membership.

Well, unfortunately I can't exchange ideas with you because I have absolutely no
knowledge of these technical questions. As I said, please, at least set the
"autoconfirmed" as already is done with en.wiki and de.wiki . Thanks.
