User:Pear1020/I'm extended confirmed but I'm still stupid

Extended confirmed users are given a lot of privileges - the Wikipedia Library, the ability to edit most WP:CTOP pages. However, personally, it doesn't quite indicate as much experience, knowledge, or competence as it seems.

Like all editors, EC users are still fallible. Maybe even very. Me? I'm still a noob who uses the teahouse and makes mistakes all the time and barely knows how to navigate Wikipedia. 500 edits seems like a lot, but you can do a 100 edits, just like that, if you really find your calling, like I did in article assessment. Do that 5 times and suddenly you have all this power and half the brains for it.

Around 20,000 edits is where you actually start knowing how to do things. Or so I've heard. Guess I'll have to edit up to that point and see if my competence has increased. I'm betting not.
