IMPORTANT NOTE: Think twice before restricting write access to a web or a topic, because an open system where everybody can contribute is the essence of
WikiCulture. Experience shows that unrestricted write access works very well because:
- There is enough peer pressure to post only appropriate content.
- Content does not get lost because topics are under revision control.
- A topic revision can be undone by a member of the TWikiAdminGroup if necesssary.
