user permissions per page
Sep 5 2008, 5:02 PM EDT | Post edited: Sep 5 2008, 5:02 PM EDT
Can I set the user profiles to where only certain users can edit certain pages but not others while still having all members in the same site? I want to make one wiki for a class and have separate pages for each group. I don't want other group members to edit another groups page. Do you find this valuable?

There are not page-by-page security settings available, but you can lock any page you like (this option is in the More Tools pulldown menu). This prevents anyone lower than a moderator from editing the page. You will not be able to specify certain users though.

Why not create a main class wiki site that links to a "sub-wiki" run by each class group? Each member can be a moderator and they can lock all pages. This will allow only them to make edits but still allow all students to visit, view, and make comments on other groups' sites. Do you find this valuable?
