If I try to modify own user page at (ja)Wikipedia, on logged-in, using Firefox
1.5.0.6 / Internet Explorer 6.0 sp2, Mediawiki backs 'index.php' file.

is editing page to be expectedon logged user.)

But anonymous users CAN modify my user page!

Same behavior occured when I try to edit the article don't have any contents.
Its behavior will not see anonymous users, (i.e. all users not logged in)
and anonymous user can be edit unprotected pages.

I could not find "Special:Preferences" is located on /Mediawiki/ because I'm
using i18n-ed Mediawiki.

This solution should be added the location to go.
