Forum:Can you protect an entire Forum?

We are looking at setting up an all Admin forum on our wiki in order to talk about subjects in a group that have to do with site maintenance. I was wondering whether or not there was some form of cascading protection so that you do not have to go through and protect every single page as soon as it is posted? - Regards, Gaelen S.Talk • Contribs 05:44, May 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't think it's possible, regardless, it's a bad idea. Wikis are open. Administrators are not "superusers", they are merely trusted with the delete, block and protect tools. All discussion should be open to the whole community. 10:39, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think it may be possible with Help:Protect site.  Manyman  Talk  12:09, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, it is not possible to protect an entire namespace, and Special:Protectsite won't do it either. Ajraddatz Talk 18:29, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
