When are edits automatically applied ? (possible bug)

[Heurtebise]

I don’t understand why some edits are automatically applied and not others.
I just edited this release : https://musicbrainz.org/release/641d4454-a63d-48d0-9f12-b656f63b58ae
I changed track titles on both mediums, the medium 1 was automatically applied ( https://musicbrainz.org/edit/38950353) while the other is open ( https://musicbrainz.org/edit/38950332).

Also, I added a release date on a release which had none ( https://musicbrainz.org/edit/38951172). Since this is a non-destructive edit, shouldn’t this one be applied ?

Is this a bug, or are there some things I don’t get ?

From the MusicBrainz FAQ on editing:

@Editing FAQ

How long will my edit(s) take to be approved/applied?

It depends.

Some edits (punctuation, capitalization) are considered Auto-Edits for all users and are applied immediately.

If no-one votes against your edit, it will be applied after 7 days.

If your edit receives three unanimous yes votes, it will be applied within an hour.

If your edit receives more yes votes than no votes, it will be applied after 7 days.

For many edit types (anything that wouldn’t result in lost data), an Auto-Editor may approve your edit to apply it immediately. This is quite common for typo fixes, adding URL relationships and fixes to obvious mistakes but it is at the Auto-Editor’s discretion and they are not required to do so.

If your edit is to a popular artist that has many subscribers, you are likely to gather votes more quickly. If you provide evidence to back up your edits (as suggested in the Code Of Conduct and How To Write Edit Notes) and your edits are of good quality, you will also collect yes votes more quickly.

Even some constructive edits require the approval process, like adding album art to a release. This is probably to prevent vandalism/spam not involving deletions. Although I’m not 100% on which types of edits are auto-applied and which require the 7 day wait.

Edit: Maybe someone (like a mod or admin, if they’re feeling up to it?) can provide a link to a table with that auto-vs-wait info spelled out. Maybe building off of this if there isn’t one already handy.

Edit 2: It just occurred to me, the whole source code is on Github, I could crawl through it myself… Unless, is this type of thing configurable? Way too many LoC in any case. (Ignore me, I’m talking to myself now)

Thanks for your answer, I missed the bit about the punctuation and I didn’t think it could be considered differently than other typos.
