Hi! To answer your original question; this wiki isn't strict is the sense of stopping you from having fun, but in the sense that we want everyone to feel safe and be contributing to having a great wiki and a great community.

In chat, we have rules about not being mean or insulting towards people so you don't feel upset, right? We also want everyone to feel welcome and everyone feel equal. This is mainly boosting the community so we'll move on to editing.

Editing is the biggest point of the wiki. If it's expressing yourself (user page) or contributing to our articles (main-space) then you're editing away and we welcome that. However, if you're editing we really want to see you editing in main-space. If one person did all the editing for main-space and the others just edited their user pages it is not fair and is not allowed as such. You have a big percentage to beat (40%) if you want your user page locked, so if you just do edits of main-space and user page edits in a ratio of 3:1 you can make those edits really count in both directions whilst balancing out the expectations.

Sorry for the long post but I hope I explained your answer!

See ya! how do i have 40% if I only have 40 edits?

You don't. This link shows the percentage of your edits. It's not 40% (hopefully it never will be, too).
