Thread:Project:Support desk/Assign protect to group/reply (4)

As far as i know you can't assign new groups to the list (btw sysop and autoconfirmed are special handled, too, which can be terrible from a developer point of view :P). To achieve this, you need to create new rights and groups. To use the example of "company section B" of 88.130.71.201:

With this you can protect pages to be editable by the group "Company Section B" (in fact you protect the page for all users with the user right "cosecb").

To have a better display name for "cosecb" you can create a new interface message page "MediaWiki:Protect-level-cosecb" and add the name you would like to display :)
