Wikipedia:Rough guide to extended confirmed protection
Articles under extended confirmed protection (ECP) can be edited only by extended-confirmed accounts – accounts that have been registered for at least 30 days and have made more than 500 edits. Extended confirmed (30/500) protection is therefore a stronger form of protection than semi-protection (rough guide).
