Add ability to lock wiki

For certain teams, we would only want a couple of people to be able to edit the wiki page, with the rest having view only. Or at the least, a way to track and approve/ reject proposed edits.

    It is essential to lock down a corporate Wiki site so only a few people can edit it. Others are content consumers.

    "Loved its unique function of keyword searching and pdf generation. More importantly, it allow us to identify editor so that viwers can't change anything while browsing the content. Keep up the great work!"

    Such a basic function. It's sad that MS couldn't figure out that business's like to have Wiki's locked down. People make mistakes ALL the time and allowing anyone to simply accidently click or paste on important content is short sighted at best and just flat bad design.

    Please add the ability to allow users to read the Wiki and view and add conversations around the Wiki as well. In our situation, we use a Team site for partners to receive information. They are "Guests" in Teams and can delete entries or edit them which we do not want (same holds true for document libraries -- we want them to read/download, but not delete/add/edit).

    Dear all!!! I forgot the idea to wait a roadmap to lock wiki since 2017. I am using One Note do to the same with more organization and more manage controls. You can do whatever kind of lock rules there. I will not use Wiki anymore.

    I was all set to transfer our entire product catalogue and user guides into the Teams Wiki tool, when I discovered that anyone can go in and mess with it with no way to lock it down.
    It's such a fundamental feature, pervasive throughout SharePoint, yet we can't have this functionality in the Wiki almost four years after it was requested. I can't proceed without being able to set read only permissions.

    This is a requirement for professional wikis. It significantly lowers that chance of accidental/malicious deletion of standard operation procedures. The people developing the standards and procedures should be the only ones able to edit/add data.
