Admin right is not deniable and it implies at the other rights except
programming. See
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Security+Module#HDefaultrightsbeingpredefined
. So admins should be able to view/edit/delete any page from the wiki
they administer, independent of the rights set on those pages.

A bad user could write though something like this:

{{velocity}}
#if ($hasAdmin)
  Nice content
#else
  Bad content
#end
{{/velocity}}

To prevent this you can use the watch list to get a mail with the
changes produced in the wiki and review those changes regularly (i.e.
look at the raw content not just at the rendered content) .

Hope this helps,
Marius.
