Lower the edit threshold for the Moderator Extension
Our recently passed RFC for the Moderation Extension has been very beneficial to the Wiki thus far and will hopefully continue to deter vandals and sockpuppets in the future, however I find that Users with less than 500 edits needing moderator approval for every edit they make to be a tad unfair. I will back this point up by saying you need less edits than that to apply as a moderator (250)!
I would like to propose that this threshold is lowered to 100 edits. I believe that 100 approved good faith edits are enough to prove a User's reliability, and any sockpuppets and vandals will have been weeded out long before they reach that 100 edit mark.

Support Sounds fair, especially when the minimum threshold for moderators is lower than that for automoderated users. Camenati (talk) 18:20, 18 March 2023 (UTC)- Support this 100% Not only is this threshold too high but you can technically become moderator before you are able to bypass the Moderation extension Compooper (talk) 18:22, 18 March 2023 (UTC)
