Because I did not do a good job of asking my question using correct words :-D English is not my native language (excuses, excuses). First of all, I am not talking about things like spam and abuse. As I mentioned in my reply to Ralph's question, the editorial team must take care of these problems. In other words, everyone monitors every page. My question is concerned with the *contents* of wiki articles. Suppose the original author or the current "maintainer" says, "I want to keep this page under good control by limiting edit rights to designated people", how would we respond? We can say, "Sorry, you are against the goal of the Wiki. You cannot do that". Or, we can assign him/her as the "moderator" of that page and let him be the primary contact (internal only, the name not visible to general readers). Hope I described my question/point better this time. :-) Akemi
