I agree. While this isn't the Wiki Way, the Wiki Way isn't a concept
that fits every project needs. I know that Wiki technology has been
discussed several times and security is always the issue.
Sy> Stuff to think about for a "complete" solution:
Also consider having permissions set on a category basis, so that adding
a page to a category applies some permissions when can then be
overridden.
You also need a group mechanism for different groups of users, and a
permissions model for creating new pages in a given namespace,
modifying, viewing, and deleting pages.
