Prevent publishing from anonymous users

Edit file /var/www/html/wiki/includes/EditPage.php:

MediaWiki Release: 1.5.3

Status "User Not Logged In"

In function editForm(...
if ( 'save' == $formtype ) {
        # -- No anonymous users
        if ( $wgUser->isAnon() ) {
                $this->userNotLoggedInPage();
                return;

How to prevent publishing from users not e-mail confirmed
Status "User is not Email Confirmed"

In function editForm(...
if ( 'save' == $formtype ) {
        # -- Not e-mail confirmed
        if ( !$wgUser->isEmailConfirmed() ) {
                $this->userNotConfirmedPage();
                return;
        }
You will have to add this function in EditPage.php as well:
...

        function userNotConfirmedPage() {
                global $wgOut;

                $wgOut->setPageTitle( wfMsg( 'blockedtitle' ) );
                $wgOut->setRobotpolicy( 'noindex,nofollow' );
                $wgOut->setArticleRelated( false );

                $wgOut->addWikiText( wfMsg( 'blockedtitle' ) );
                $wgOut->returnToMain( false );
        }
...
Special Note on WikiSysop

You had to make this sql update if you need WikiSysop can update pages after this patch:
mysql> UPDATE foo_user SET user_email_authenticated=20051128163934, user_email='reto@example.com' WHERE user_name='WikiSysop';
