Extension:ViewProtect
 | MediaWiki was not designed to support per-page or partial-page access restrictions. If you require this level of control, you are strongly advised to use a content management system that supports it natively.
Patches or third-party extensions claiming to provide access control, when in use with MediaWiki, may not work in all cases, potentially exposing confidential data. Use them at your own risk. Neither the MediaWiki developers nor the Wikimedia Foundation are responsible for any data leaks that may result. This message is added to all extensions of this nature and may not reflect the actual security status of this extension. For more information, see Security issues with authorization extensions. |
