Description Peter 2009-09-22 09:51:22 UTC
The mediawiki help pages say that the xml export/import feature supports a restrictions tag to specify page editing restrictions: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Export

I've tried this on 1.15 and 1.14 installations, with MySQL and Postgres databases, and it doesn't work. The xml import has a handler for the restrictions tag, and the file is imported without errors, but the restrictions seem to be ignored.

This may be related to bug 9226: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9226
