But it wouldn't solve the problem if different authors of different
groups shouldn't edit oneanothers work. =/
Not to be trite, but it sounds like what you *really* need is a content
management system, which has lots of great, useful controls, and not a
wiki, which has no such controls. Unless things have greatly improved
since January when I was researching things, MediaWiki's the only wiki
engine with a mature sense of "users" much less permissions.
I humbly suggest that if you can't trust each group not to vandalize
others' pages, then it might be a better investment of your time to
research CMS solutions (there are some very nice Free, open source ones
out there) than to try and hack around with MediaWiki which is opposed
to what you want by design.
