Why not just limit who can create accounts - in localsettings.php
# Limit creation of new user accounts to staff with admin access $wgWhitelistAccount = array ( "sysop" => 1, "developer" => 1);
Then only the people who you create accounts for will be able to edit the wiki.

how do i make it so the average user can't change the wiki. only admin and people i choose.

Please read includes/DefaultSettings.php for all configurable settings.
It seems to indicate that I can make it so that only logged in persons can edit.
It doesn't seem to say if I can again limit this to Sysops only.
Am I missing it?
