Forum:User page protections

I have noticed that blog posts can only be edited by admins and the creator of the blog, so why can't we do that with user pages? I don't see why it can't be done. Tezzla blah blah blah 18:17, July 22, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'll tell you why: Blogs are an extension, and the "can only be edited by the user who created it" mechanic are a part of it. This type of protection cannot be applied to any other page. Of course, feel free to write a MediaWiki extension which makes this possible - until then, not going to happen. -- Porter21 (talk) 18:26, July 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * We could ask them to be made editable only by registered users, though. Ausir(talk) 10:20, July 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Fine with me if people want it. That would also apply to sub-pages which people might want to be editable by anyone though, wouldn't it? Not sure how much of a factor that would be, just wanted to mention it. -- Porter21 (talk) 10:59, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
