Forum:Lock or Protect Comments in Article page

Hai, can we lock or protect a page article to disable the comments ? the existing comments can still be shown are fine. i just want to protect the new comments for a while, until the protection is gone. then the comments can be on again. thanks from WieQuadrat (talk) 14:39, October 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * You can effectively lock commenting by turning off the Article Comments extension via Special:WikiFeatures. However, this will also hide all the comments until the extension is re-enabled. It is not possible to stop new comments from being added without disabling the extension at this time. 14:59, October 15, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the response. However i didn't want to disable extension coz it will be OverKill solution. i just wish to stop the new comment for one page only and easily reactivate the comment. The reason for this because sometimes a discussion or comment in a page need to stop temporary while the page is being edited or relayout or protected. and then after all done, the comment can continue.WieQuadrat (talk) 10:32, October 22, 2012 (UTC)
