Extension:Talkright
adds a talk permission independant from article edition

What can this extension do?
Talkright extension makes the editing of talk pages a distinct action from the editing of articles to create finer permissions, by adding the talk right.

Usage
The following example creates a group whose users can comment on articles but not edit their contents:

Installation
1. Copy the code below in a file named talkright.php in MediaWiki's extensions folder.

2. Add the following line in the LocalSettings.php file: 3. Edit tab in talk page : a "view source" button is still existing on talk pages. To fix this problem, modify includes/SkinTemplate.php on line 672 changing : 4. Now you can use the talk right within the group user rights.
