Limit fishtest wiki write permissions
Currently anyone can edit the fishtest wiki. Data and guides could easily be lost.
Change it under Settings -> General -> Features -> Wiki -> Restrict editing to collaborators
and invite people as collaborators that should be able to change the wiki, such as vondele who posts to Useful Data
I think only the repo owner can set this. I have write permissions but I'm unable to change the settings
But a lot of the people who edit the Wiki are not collaborators anyways.
Please change this!! https://github.com/glinscott/fishtest/wiki/Building-Stockfish-on-Windows/_history and https://github.com/glinscott/fishtest/wiki/Build-cutechess-with-Qt5-static/_history
both had malicious links for 6 entire days!!
And https://github.com/glinscott/fishtest/wiki/Advanced-topics
- Limit contributions to collaborators only
- Create a "team" of collaborators with read access only
- Based on the last link, "read" is the most minimal level of permission needed to edit the wiki
- New people will have to manually be added (and thus request access) to this team but it should prevent malicious edits in the future

Unfortunately the above described links do not work for organizations, they would work for fishtest however. For the stockfish repository we created a new webhook so that we get a notification on discord whenever someone changes something in the wiki. This would be useful for fishtest as well but requires the registration of a new webhook in the settings.

We now get updates in discord when someone changes the wiki in either stockfish or fishtest. This I will close this since any malicious activity should be spotted quite easily.
