Micylou Standard Mediawiki Security Matrix

Defaults

Micylou builds a start-up solution based on the original Mediawiki LTS package and includes additional extensions to build its start-up solution.

Therefore, the roles and rights included in these extensions are taken into account, even if the extension is not activated.
