Wiki groups dashboard

Showing all known groups that can be used to define access controls in Foswiki.

Group name

Note: A group name must be a WikiWord and must end in ...Group. New topics are based on GroupTemplate

Members

Comma separated list. You will be added to the group automatically to allow you to continue to manage the new group.
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 AdminGroup if necesssary.
