I last modified it in September and now it is immutable and quite stale.
Can this please be fixed?
The last change made through the Wiki appears to be your September edit. I'm not sure how the underlying file got locked (precisely - how a MoinMoin #acl macro got added). I removed that #acl macro for now, so you should be back in business. However, note that we've locked this file in the past because spammers have scribbled on it. If that continues to be an issue, we'll probably lock it back down. I know that makes it painful for legitimate users like you, Wesley Chun, Dave Beasley, etc, but that appears to be the only arrow in our quiver at the moment.
There's no way to give access to specific users? -- Aahz (aahz@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "LL YR VWL R BLNG T S" -- www.nancybuttons.com
Yes, there likely is. I'm no longer all that conversant in the language of MoinMoin acls though. You'd probably have to create a TrainingUsers page or something, add a bullet list of qualified users, then protect that page, and adjust the acl on the PythonTraining page accordingly. If I have a few minutes this evening (and nobody beats me to it) I will try to cook something up. Skip On Mon, Dec 3, 2012 at 3:29 PM, Aahz <aahz@pythoncraft.com> wrote:

I finally got around to this today. I added a PythonTrainingGroup page: http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonTrainingGroup This lists a few known trainers. Marilyn Davis confirmed that she can edit the PythonTraining page: http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonTraining I can edit it as well, but that's because I'm in the AdminGroup. Can someone who is not in the AdminGroup and not listed in the PythonTrainingGroup page check the PythonTraining page to make sure it appears immutable for you? Thanks, Skip

On the left under "Page" I see "Immutable Page" Hope this helps, Stefan

Thanks! Nice work!

Triple-checking after logging in, it's also immutable for me. I'd suggest that Skip and other admins create fake accounts for themselves to check stuff like this. -- Aahz (aahz@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ I support the RKAB
