Hello wiki pros,

Is there a way to restrict edits of a protected page to only bureaucrats?  Seems like it cannot be done.

Overlord, its just a matter of defining a new protection level, and giving associated permissions to crats, see the two links in the previous email

I'm probably wrong, but without extensions it would at least require a new namespace, if you don't want to lock down one of the existing ones. On Sep 19, 2013 5:39 PM, "Al" alj62888@yahoo.com wrote:
