Bri, There are a few good extensions for doing what [I think] you want to do, but you can actually control permissions like this just by defining custom namespaces and groups in your localsettings.php file.
That said, the extensions for this generally give you an easier way to do it. The problems with managing permissions is that it quickly becomes an administrative time-suck. The complexity of figuring out who gets which permissions on which page (or category or namespace) can really make things confusing. Recommend you look at these: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:User_rights_extensions And read up on these: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:User_rights Personally, I use this extension, but you'll want to plan some time to work with the author. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GroupPermissionsManager The whole experience with user permission management is fraught with peril, but if you stick to it you'll find many workable solutions.
