Extension:KeepYourHandsToYourself

The KeepYourHandsToYourself Extension prevents users from editing other users' pages, subpages and images.

Non-logged in users (guests) are also prevented from editing user pages. Sysops are immune from this restriction.

Images and other Restrictions
An additional feature (added in version 0.2), is that editing images is also filtered by user. If an image contains a double dash '--', then anything before the double-dash is considered to be a username. Only that user can edit that image.

For example, consider. That image would only be editable by SomeUser (or a sysop since they're immune to all restrictions).

In order to implement this restriction, it is necessary that user names do not themselves contain double dashes. To this end, an additional hooking method is supplied which will reject new accounts if the username contains double dashes.

Verson 0.3 added an image processing hook to prepend the user name to the file name for non-sysops. dfdfdsfdfdfdfdfdf
