--- Comment #12 from Dereckson <[email protected]> ---
So, to summarize, if I well understand, you settle to only restrict the
createpage right.

This possibility has been commented, and you didn't address the two following
comments concerns:

Brandon Harris seems to answer your question, suggesting they've demonstrated
the community weren't able to cope with page creation vandalism.

Could you explain what kind of vandalism you would be able to avoid and can't
currently manage?

Ariel T. Glenn offers you to work with you on an alternative solution.

Could you see if you can collaborate together on this matter?


If you wish to bypass these two technical/community objection arguments, it
seems to me you then need a broader community approval.
