Is there any way to check my user access level?

I need to know is there is an official (or 3rd party) way to check to see what my UAL is. Thanks. 𝒞𝑜𝑜𝓅𝑒𝓇 𝒢𝑜𝑜𝒹𝓂𝒶𝓃 (talk) 20:47, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Read the page. There's a box that says:

Another way is "View user groups" link in the Tools sidebar (on the right in desktop skin Vector 2022). This link is available on all user pages, including your user page and your contributions page. The link leads to Special:UserRights with the username, e.g. Special:UserRights/CooperGoodman. —⁠andrybak (talk) 10:59, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Update the number of autoconfirmed users

It says "As of July 2021, there were approximately 2.1 million autoconfirmed users on the English Wikipedia, of which the vast majority were inactive."
This figure is nearly 3 years out of date. Is there any way to check how many autoconfirmed users there are?

that's a good point. i'm not seeing a simple way to get that figure (it seems that either because mediawiki does that role by itself or because it's such a large number. it doesn't show up in any of the normal places). I'm going to go ahead and submit a database request over at Wikipedia:Request a queryand see if I can get that info. I don't think it's something we'd use enough to warrant adding to Wikipedia:Database reports. Tantomile (talk) 04:24, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ok i've been poking around and i *think* i've managed to request that they rerun the database query that got that 2.1 million number. quarry:query/82150 Tantomile (talk) 04:36, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ok. the number is: 2381282 Tantomile (talk) 06:34, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

“If Admin” not functioning

To non admins, the box that shows if your an admin or not under the administrator section shows “Your account is .” Lordseriouspig 10:07, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like it's working fine to me. Try again, maybe on a different browser? Primefac (talk) 11:48, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Same issue for me (as a non-admin); the doc on Template:If administrator states that "It is not currently possible to display text only for non-administrators", and the second parameter used on the page is unimplemented, so pending technical changes the box probably needs to be reworked or removed Quadrantal (talk) 06:21, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

App version

I seem to be logged in to the wiki app, but the article still says i am not logged in. I don't think that there is an easy way to fix this, just putting it out there. AxelTrold (talk) 17:00, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Extended confirmed before autoconfirmed on TOR?

On tor, autoconfirmed is 90 days and 100 edits. It does not mention anything about extended confirmed which is 30 days and 500 edits. lets say a user with 510 edits and an eighty day old account on tor or IP block exemption may be extended confirmed before becoming autoconfirmed.

Days to edit ratio

Autoconfirmed is 2.5 edits per day and extended confirmed is 16.7 edits per day. Why is the extended confirmed requirement 6.68 times faster? Boring pass (talk) 04:39, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
