Description prolineserver 2012-03-13 08:01:46 UTC

Non-members of the members-group of se.wikimedia.org are currently not allowed to edit their user page. They should be able to edit it, or the whole user-namespace.

Comment 1 p858snake 2012-03-13 12:00:21 UTC

Please link to a comment by the chapter/community consenus that they want this change.

Comment 2 Dan Collins 2012-03-16 18:14:10 UTC

Invalid until the requestor provides a link to community consensus for this proposal. Once you have consensus to make this change, please reopen this bug with a link to that consensus.

Comment 3 p858snake 2012-03-16 20:41:34 UTC

Whoops, Forgot to comment on the bug.

User has contacted me and is a member of the SE chapter board, They has also checked with other board members.

Comment 4 Jan Ainali 2012-03-18 20:35:46 UTC

Is there really need for a link when a board member asks for this? Or when the chairman does?

Comment 5 Dan Collins 2012-03-18 20:38:10 UTC

Oh. Someone should probably just do this then. I didn't realize that the requestor was a board member.

Comment 6 Sam Reed (reedy) 2012-03-20 16:10:59 UTC

This cannot be currently done with just MediaWiki

Maybe with the lockdown extension, but it's not a an extension that is reviewed for deploy.


A bug to allow this in core could be created, and put as a blocker against this one

Comment 7 Jan Ainali 2012-03-20 16:58:29 UTC

Oh, I did not realize that since it was possible for the Projekt: namespace. Is it something special about that one that made it possible?

The projekt namespace is setup in a strange away, and I've no idea how it even works...

Comment 9 p858snake 2012-03-20 22:26:35 UTC

Couldn't we just open the wiki up, then wgNamespaceProtection every namespace to their member usergroup and leave user unprotected?

Comment 10 Jan Ainali 2012-03-20 22:37:53 UTC

As the result would be exactly what we want, I am totally behind that proposal. Oh, but don't forget to also leave Projekt: unprotected then.

Yes, this should do the job. Reopening the bug.
