[WikiEN-l] Confirmations of permission

[Guettarda]

For a tad more privacy, but something that remain available should anyone 
need it, what about putting in on a subpage, deleting the subpage, and then 
putting an "admins only" link (ie, any admin can access it, so the 
permission stays with the project even if you leave, but it is not openly 
available to the public.

Just a thought.
