Hi, you may create a table and list calendar events there (as you can see for example at public deployments scheduling calendar at https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployment).

If you want to explicitly restrict searchengines bots from accessing your site you can use https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgDefaultRobotPolicy but althrough they usually respect this settings they aren't technically prevented from accessing.

Hello Hans, have a look at Semantic MediaWiki [1] and Semantic Result Formats [2][3]. In combination with Page Forms [4][5] (to provide a firendly user interface when creating/editing events) and Lockdown [6] extension you should have some options to work with. As mentioned by others, LdapAuthentication extension will also be required. You can use different namespaces to handle different calendars and control (write) access. And then use queries to display them all together or seperately. Unfortunately with Lockdown/Semantic MediaWiki you will only be able to resrict edit permissions. Proper restriction of read permissions is not that easy.
