The problem is that we don't have a non-jargon term for "autoconfirmed", for
the very good reason that all community members are supposed to be
autoconfirmed, although some wikis are more restrictive than others and stretch
the concept a bit more (too much).
We have some established terms for non-autoconfirmed, though: 'newbie' (also
valid in code), [[m:Newly registered user]].
In core:
'group-autoconfirmed' => 'Autoconfirmed users',
'group-autoconfirmed-member' => '{{GENDER:$1|autoconfirmed user}}',
'grouppage-autoconfirmed' => '{{ns:project}}:Autoconfirmed users',
'protect-level-autoconfirmed' => 'Block new and unregistered users',
Note that Wikimedia projects also have a "confirmed" group by default (that can
be added by stewards).
