Waive 50 edit requirement selectively
https://github.com/toolforge/video2commons/blob/df24aa2c163320e1db386813c915b3f42e6250ee/video2commons/frontend/app.py#L227
to let the tool be used even by legitimate new users, i propose, a way to bypass 50 edits be added. (wiki loves contests sometimes draw such users.)
my idea is to enable it for all autopatrol users regardless edit count. autopatrol would be temporarily granted to those users by sysops.
i think the code is this but not sure.
if not ( (identify['editcount'] >= 50 and 'autoconfirmed' in identify['rights']) or 'autopatrolled' in identify['rights']):
