To serve and to protect

Among other things, administrators can protect pages from editing using the link "Protect this page" in the sidebar. This happens when a page has been the subject of an edit war or is the target of repeated vandalism. Admins have no special rights over NSwiki content and policy states they should not protect pages in which they are personally involved. Admins only edit protected pages when absolutely necessary. An exception is the Main Page and a few widely used templates, which are permanently protected because they are highly exposed targets. On protected pages, non-administrators see a "view source" link in place of "edit this page", allowing them to see and copy (but not save) the wikitext.
