Right now the MediaWiki namespace is protected from editing. However, if you add a template to a Mediawiki message and the template is unprotected, any user could edit the message by editing the template, creating a backdoor. There is no option to cascade protect MediaWiki messages on wiki, and there is no function in the MediaWiki software to cascade protect an entire namespace. Should this be fixed?
