:: Rather than simply lock down users, perhaps we could lock down new user privileges? Since task creation requires some expertise (I am uncomfortable doing it myself) and some familiarity with the site, perhaps new page creation can be restricted until after the user has shown their capabilities in other contexts? This relates to the difficulty that a non-admin user has for deleting page titles (and, also changes to an existing page can be easily reverted). --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 15:57, 24 August 2012 (UTC) |

:::I like the idea of not allowing a new user to create new pages until after some time, but could it be done without too much effort and what aboutthe creation of users pages?
