Hi Everyone,
Is it possible for me to restrict access of a particular page to [users]. ie my group [users] can edit all the pages but can I specify a single page that they can't edit? Sort of blacklist.
First of all, I would suggest that you very seriously consider the approach of telling everyone "Don't edit this page unless you're in Group X!" Wikis rely very heavily on "soft security", and there's not necessarily any reason to institute hard restrictions:

For example, on Wikipedia, all the core policy pages can be edited by any (autoconfirmed) user. In practice, this means that people can fix typos and tweak formatting without having to ask anyone for permission. If someone makes an unreasonable change, someone else reverts it, and if they continue they get blocked for vandalism.
However, if you do need this, use the "protect" feature:

You can add different protection levels using $wgRestrictionLevels, if your user group needs to be "below" sysops:
