bug in the new semi-protection scheme
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: woohookitty

Description:
According to the policy and what Brion said at
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29&curid=3252662&diff=32334352&oldid=32331013,
the semi protection scheme is set to stop anons from posting to S-P pges (which
it is doing) but also accounts newer than 4 days old. However, on the George W
Bush page and others, it is letting brand spanking new accounts post. Please fix
this as it is one of the key components of S-P. Otherwise, S-P will be rendered
somewhat pointless. Thanks.

unregistered users being blocked from editing.

The template should be kept in sync with what the code actually does.
