Hi all.
I think I'm trying to do something that pmwiki doesn't support. I
would like to require admin approval of all updates to the site. I
know that sounds like a pain, and would lead to slow development of
the site, but I'm going to use this in a school setting and want to
do everything I can to prevent students from posting things that are
inappropriate. Any ideas?
Thanks for your help!

IMHO, you'll need to be a bit more flexible while also
promoting/developing student responsibility.
- Offer student passwords that you can remove for abuse. One can
break it down to group passwords if you wish so a student can only edit
their group.
- Set up some trusted students as moderators who agree to monitor
their group, or various groups within the site.
- This frees you to just monitor their moderator work.
- Use the notify and site.notifylist feature and set the
moderators to recieve emails for changes in the groups they are
moderating.
- They (not you) need to moderate those changes for
appropriateness and deal with it appropriately.
- If abuse becomes a problem, set up a moderator court where the
students are judge and jury for abuse and how to deal with it.
- Typically, when given such responsibility, students are
stricter on themselves that you might otherwise be. Plus you are
insulated from being the bad guy...
Always, Dr Fred C
