Registered user/pdc
A registered user is a user who has signed up for an account and has logged in to a Wikimedia project. In addition to what an unregistered user can do, a registered user can:
- Seiten erstellen (die keine Diskussionsseiten sind)
- Eigene Einstellungen bearbeiten
- Eigene Beobachtungsliste bearbeiten (beachte, dass einige Aktionen auch ohne dieses Recht Seiten hinzufügen)
- Feils nuffdraage
- Bearbeitungen als klein markieren
- Bledder ziehe
The full list of rights is available at Rechte vun Yuuser-Druppe.
All edits made as a registered user will show the user name in the history instead of an IP address.
Registered users (excepting administrators or Wikimedia Staff) cannot edit or move protected pages. Newly registered users cannot edit semi-protected pages or move any page. Several other minor restrictions, depending on the wiki, may apply to newly-registered users (per phabricator:T14556, media uploads are an autoconfirmed right on most wikis, Commons being a notable exception).
Das Hochladen von Dateien ist zumeist auf die Untergruppe der (automatisch) bestätigten Benutzer beschränkt, Commons ist in dieser Beziehung eine Ausnahme. Zusätzlich gibt es auf Commons die Untergruppe der Dateiprüfer (früher auch als trusted user bekannt), welche die Lizenzen von Bildern prüfen, die von Flickr oder Picasa hochgeladen wurden (siehe commons:Commons:Flickr files/reviewers bzw. commons:Commons:Picasa Web Albums files/reviewers).

Autoconfirmed status
On MediaWiki, there is a pseudo-group called "autoconfirmed" to prevent new accounts from flooding a wiki with low quality or vandalism edits. After an account is a number of days old, or has performed a certain number of edits, the account is given the "autoconfirmed" flag. The thresholds are different for different wikis, though the default configuration is four days delay, with no minimum edit count requirement.
Examples of custom configurations:
- English Wikipedia - after four days and 10 edits
- Russian Wikipedia - after four days and 15 edits
- Italian Wikipedia - after seven days and 50 edits
As of December 2022, the longest waiting period is 7 days (in de.wikibooks, it.wiki, no.wiki, wuu.wiki, and most zh.* wikis); and the highest edit count requirement is 50 edits (in ar.wiki, es.wiki, it.wiki, zh.wiki and wikidata), whereas the most common custom setting is 10 edits. For an up-to-date of the current settings, review the $wgAutoConfirmAge and $wgAutoConfirmCount arrays in WMF's InitializeSettings.php.
Some requests to increase such limits have been rejected in the past — see Limits to configuration changes.
