We need moderators, that is clear. If they check the content for |
17 |
correctness and remove spam they might just as well click one more |
18 |
checkbox to mark a stable revision. |

In MediaWiki, that'd be the nil namespace for 'registered', |
34 |
i.e. |
35 |
http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/25WaysToBreakYourMachine |
36 |
|
37 |
and $whatever for 'devs': |
38 |
http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Devs:25WaysToBreakYourMachine |
39 |
or |
40 |
http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Devwiki:25WaysToBreakYourMachine |
41 |
|
42 |
For MoinMoin, I'd suggest what they call a wikicluster. |
