Overview
It is possible to use MediaWiki to quickly build and maintain a web site that is "outward-looking", i.e. it is not really a wiki but is only edited by a small number of people and is "read-only" for everyone else.
This was done for the PsyCrit web site by creating a new skin and modifying it to present a much simpler interface to most users, while still retaining the ability for administrators to log in and edit (using the standard skin, which is now "hidden").
See "modified skin for PsyCrit" for an explanation of how the skin was modified.
