Just a note: Only allow the users themselves to edit items about them is impractical, as properties and items is managed by community, and sometimes properties get deprecated or items get merged. Probably we need a new user group to manage them.

There's a valid argument for allowing anyone to edit (since it is a wiki with the same details from the User page and that would be the same permissions the User page) or "admins" and the user themselves (which would prevent others from editing public details about yourself).

Now that I know User pages are editable by effectively anyone, I do not have a strong opinion either way.
