Description

Per a local rfc the ability to save books in the book namespace using the book creator. According to mw:Extension:Collection#User rights for saving books this would be accomplished by removing

$wgGroupPermissions['user']['collectionsaveascommunitypage'] = true;

from LocalSettings.php. I do not have the relevant experience to verify that however.
