I think 6 months is fair, since that gives enough time for regular wiki users (or even not-so-regular wiki users) to be able to see what contributions are made. However, two months and 150 edits for a long-time wiki user could possibly be fair as well. And while 500 edits <i>is</i> still possible, I think halving it is fair also. Six months is plenty of time to make 250 edits, and considering there are plenty of projects around the wiki that can be done, it's not an entirely unachievable amount. Has there ever been a distinction from long-time users and new users in terms of criteria? {{User:Stelar/sig}} 12:41, 28 August 2018 (UTC) | I think 6 months is fair, since that gives enough time for regular wiki users (or even not-so-regular wiki users) to be able to see what contributions are made.

Please let me know what you, the community, thinks is an acceptable timeframe and edit count for an average ideal sysop application. THE CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER 05:58, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
I think the amount of edits is less important than the content. 250 should be adequate like with the de-escalations, but could also be hard to rack up purely in the adminstrative edits. I think Bob said 150, that seems like a fine amount too if the content is considered. (Im focused on your edits DDR, as you work in areas that perhaps are forgotten, making your work more important than updating a dangerlevel) -- The Artist Formerly Known As AudioAttack (talk) 06:10, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
