Manual:Skrivskydd
Protection is used to restrict the making of changes to a page (edit or move), the creation of a page, or the upload of a file.
MediaWiki handles existing and not-existing pages differently, because not-existing pages don't have a page ID. That's why protection information is stored in two different tables, and listing of such pages are separate.
