+These groups can be used to define fine grained %TWIKIWEB%.TWikiAccessControl in %WIKITOOLNAME%:
+
+* [[TWikiAdminGroup]]
+* [[EngineeringGroup]]
+* [[SupportGroup]]
+*
+
+Add your groups to this list and define new group topics similar to existing ones. Group topics **_must_** end in `...Group.`
+
+**IMPORTANT NOTE:** Think twice before restricting write access to a web or a topic, because an open system where everybody can contribute is the essence of the %TWIKIWEB%.WikiCulture. Experience shows that unrestricted write access works very well because:
+
+* There is enough peer pressure to post only conform content.
+* Content does not get lost because topics are under revision control.
+* A topic revision can be undone by a member of the %MAINWEB%.TWikiAdminGroup in case needed.
+
+**_Related topics:_** %TWIKIWEB%.TWikiAccessControl, [[WebPreferences]], [[TWikiUsers]], %TWIKIWEB%.WikiCulture.
