Dear folks,
I'm checking the Article Creation page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_creation), and it says:
The ability to create articles directly in mainspace is restrictedhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:ACPERM to autoconfirmed users, though non-confirmed users and non-registered users can submit a proposed article through the Articles for Creationhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_creation process, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication.
Anyone knows when the restriction (e.g., registered and auto-confirmed) become effective? I tracked the past revisions of the page but found no clue. A more general question is: where to find information about policy changes, e.g., article creation, in Wikipedia?
Thanks,
Haifeng
