Description Huib abigor Laurens 2010-04-05 21:57:12 UTC Hello, When I protect a page against edits by all users (edit=sysop) users with the import right can still import a page over the protected page. The import function doesn't not check when a page is protected. I tested this in 1.17-svn aswell as 1.16bèta. Comment 1 Robin Pepermans (SPQRobin) 2011-09-06 00:02:34 UTC Fixed in r96311
