Preventing access to special page "SemanticMediaWiki"Provides functions for wiki administrators that assist in doing their administration work[edit]
To achieve this the user right "smw-admin
" has to removed from the wiki administrators (user group "sysop") and additionally no user should be assigned to be a Semantic MediaWiki administrator (user group "smwadministrator"). This will additionally prevent the display of operational statistics and of configuration settings.
