Hi folks, I am studying-up on how to implement edit and view permissions
for individual namespaces and the following link is the only method I have
found so far:
[Mediawiki-l] Permissions of groups on namespaces:
http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/htdig/mediawiki-l/2006-May/012359.html
My Questions is:
Is this the most up-to-date method recommended by this forum?
If so, any additional advice?
If not, what then?
Thanks all....

Fortunately, MediaWiki has made some progress since then: Use
$wgNamespaceProtection (
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgNamespaceProtection) for
restricting edit access. For restricting read access, you can try the
lockdown extension (
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Lockdown),
though there may be holes.
