-We can set custom thresholds on guides and Wikis we make, as well as guides. For example I generally set guides I am actively maintaining to 30,000 minimum to edit but that's because I have had issues with spam edits and the "peanut gallery" so I make it ineffective with a high minimum anyone who spends ~1 year establishing their name here can meet, 2 if you're not as active. It's so I know that I can generally trust the work.

Anyone can still edit it, I just need to approve it (as well as admin or even someone with that ceiling) under 30k. I've raised it over time from ~10k or so (based on reputation at the time; I try to keep it reasonable which is why I picked 30k at 84,547). Once I commit to the number, I consider it a "fixed" number I will continue to respect and honor in that guide's current form until I make major changes that make it a "new guide" on an old link that is established.[br]
BTW the other thing is I rarely retroactively go back in time and change a 15k guide to 30k for example. That said the moment I do any major overhaul I do bump it up to the 30k minimum.
