This is where it gets tricky and you start veering toward Private Wiki, which FANDOM does not allow. However, you *can* attempt to establish in your Rules that somethings are established fact. Using my Stickball League example, Player Game Stats for a particular date and game are a matter of record. Therefore someone should not edit them without proper proof they are indeed *correcting* that stat, and not just wish-fullfillment for "my darling baby, the should-be MVP".

Approvals for such detail editing would need to be established in the Rules. Some pages can be locked, mainly to prevent vandalism, but they need to be few and preferably temporary.

However, beyond restricting such, other aspects of pages need to be in keeping with the Creation Policy, which is summed up with FANDOM's motto, "Everyone can edit".

Of course, being so narrow a topic also means that very few are aware of it so the chances of someone with outside interest finding it without knowing it is there minimizes troublesome visitors.

As I said, it gets tricky for narrow-niche wikis.
