Forum:Extension:UserPageEditProtection

mw:Extension:UserPageEditProtection restricts edit access to user pages and their sub pages to their owners and sysops. I want to ask Staff to enable this for a wiki I founded. That request would be a lot easier if Staff already had experience with this extension. So is anybody aware of any wiki that uses this extension or a similar one? --
 * One of the older profile systems Wikia was working on (before the current profile system) restricted editing of userpages to their owners and sysops. So they've considered and used simililar solutions in the past. Generally most wikis leave it up to trust, and there may well be situations where users want people to edit their userpages or subpages --  Random Time  17:01, May 27, 2012 (UTC)
 * To add on what Randomtime said, some wikis would want others to edit their userspace/subpages, for example, some wikis have guestbooks (not going to get into that), where users want others to edit their own subpages. -- 17:09, May 27, 2012 (UTC)
 * Whlist that would be true if it were enabled wikia-wide (something that I'm against) this is Pecos' wiki that we're talking about. --  Random Time  17:46, May 27, 2012 (UTC)


 * This isn't the time or place to spread out the concept, but the wiki will consist of 1% articles and 99% user pages. It will be very unevenly balanced in that regard. The pages will be semi-private in content - more like preferences than like public profiles. It's possible that people will take a peak at other users' pages, but I very much doubt that people will want to edit them or that their owners would appreciate that. There's however one person who may have to look at all of these pages - if only to stop spam and vandalism: me. And I don't want to. Again: this is not a content-wiki. We're talking about stuff that's likely to be relatively uninteresting to anybody but its owner. I would feel much better embarking on this project, if I knew there's this fail safe that will lock out spammers and vandals for good. --
