WMF wikis can restrict editing in the “User” namespace to only the page owner and certain user groups

https://diff.wikimedia.org/2026/07/27/tech-news-2026-issue-31/

Introduced in version: 1.47.0

When enabled, only users with the editalluserpages right may edit other users' user pages: this applies to the whole User namespace (including subpages), but not to user talk pages.

This functionality is adapted from the UserPageEditProtection extension.
