[Mediawiki-l] Restricintg registration for users

[Waleed Pervaiz]

Gey guys,

I'm relatively new to mediawiki, but learning fast. I want to be able to give access to only users whom I approve.

I used these lines to disable view access for anonymous users:

$wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = false;
$wgWhitelistRead =  array ( "Main Page", "Special:Userlogin", "Help:Contents");


But a user can always login and start viewing. Is there any way that I could restrict registration? Either I approve of the user before his login starts working, or only I have access to "add" new users.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Waleed
