| Confluence is highly configurable in the way different people can view and edit pages. |
| The FAI wiki is set up to work entirely on [group permissions|User groups] set on [spaces|Spaces]. Individual [permissions|Permissions] on spaces or pages within spaces should *not* be used. |
| |
| The only exception is for [pPersonal spaces] which are controlled by the individual owner of the space. |

| h3. Permissions policy || Group \\ || All \\ spaces \\ || Own \\ SC or WG space \\ || Own \\ personal space \\ || || | *confluence-administrators* | Super administrator powers | | | There are very few users with this permission, membership authorized by the FAI webmaster. | | *wiki-administrators* \\ | Admin, Read, Write, Comment \\ | | | Can administer all spaces in the wiki but are disallowed from operations that may compromise system security. Generally only one or a small number per FAI commission. For example CIMA wiki administration is performed by the [CIMA Internet Presence working group|cimaWiki:] which is composed of elected CIMA delegates. | | *Each* *{_}commission{_}* *SC or WG member* \\ | Read, Comment \\ | Read, Write, Comment | | Each sub-committee or working group member has full access to the content of the corresponding space. | | *{_}commission\-_{*}{*}delegates* \\ | Read, Comment \\ | | | Each commission delegate can create and edit their own personal space, and can create and edit pages in some spaces associated with their commission. | | *confluence-users* | Read, comment | | Read, Write, Comment | Every logged-in user is a member of this group, can create and edit their own personal space and read and create comments in all spaces. | | *anonymous* \\ | Read \\ | | | Non-logged in users can view most spaces but can't see or create comments or see any personal details of users. | |
| h3. Typical setup for a space. |
| This is the CIMA [Internet Presence Working Group|cimaWiki:] space. |

| h4. cima-delegates |
| In this case it is a CIMA space, and the group *cima-delegates*, which contains all CIMA delegates who have permission to view and comment. |
| h4. cima-internet |
| Contains the members of the committee responsible CIMA working group responsible for this space. (probably these are also all cima-delegates, but it could include other co-opted members.) They have permission to do almost anything in the space. |
| h4. Logged in people not CIMA delegates |
| if you wanted people outside of CIMA to be able to comment in this space then you could add the group *confluence-users* which contains everyone with a valid login to the wiki, and give them wiki. They should have the same permissions as *cima-delegates* have here. |
| h4. Individual users |
| Note that no individual users have permissions for this space. This is a FAI protocol and makes overall administration easier. If an administrator finds any individual permissions anywhere in the wiki (apart from personal spaces) [Personal spaces]) then they will be removed. |
| h4. Anonymous |
| The group *anonymous* is anyone not logged in. CIMA has chosen the policy of using this wiki as a tool to show the World what it does, so generally anonymous access is set to *view* in all CIMA pages. |
| It is *strongly recommended* anonymous users are not given any further permissions as this could easily lead to abuse. Wiki administrators will generally disable any anonymous permissions they find beyond just view. |
