Thanks Dmitriy.

By looking at the code of Title::userCanReed, I noticed the 'userCan' hook that 
appears to be here for that exact purpose.

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks/userCan

I think I will use it with a custom extension to filter pages by title.


I was wondering however if userCanRead() is called only for the viewed page - 
or 
for transcluded pages as well? And for redirects: is userCanRead used both for 
source and target?


Best regards,
Sylvain.
