 * Talk pages are pretty effective when the subject of discussion is... the contents of the wiki page itself. For example on this talk page you might say something like "I don't really like the spiders example. It's a bit silly. How can we improve it?". That is an example of a good on-topic discussion to have here.
 * Now you seem to be asking a question about configuring MediaWiki. Probably this relates to "Skins", so go check out the Manual:Skins page. If you find that manual page unclear, you might leave a comment on Manual talk:Skins. That might be a useful way for you to help us improve our manual.
 * ...however, if you are asking a newbie question about configuring mediawiki then you could head over to the Project:Support desk or look at other Communication alternatives. That is a more effective way of getting help.
 * Hope that helps

Wikitext is difficult to get started with. Any suggestions on practicing? I do not have access to Sandbox yet! Laura trout13:31, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Anonymous users can edit/create only talk pages
Hello

How can I do to anonymous user can edit/create only a talk pages? With these options: $wgGroupPermissions['*']['createpage'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*']['createtalk'] = true; anonymous user doesn't have permission to create discussion page. With this option: $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = true; can edit any unprotected page. How can I protect all pages with the exception of talk pages from the anonymous user? Maybe auto protect newly created pages?
