I am creating a wiki (for a specialized project) that lets anonymous users read 
articles, but that is all they can do. They cannot log in, cannot view article 
history, cannot view Special Pages, or use any other wiki features. Basically, 
it's a wiki for a few writers and thousands of anonymous readers. MediaWiki is 
a great platform because the articles are highly interlinked like an 
encyclopedia.

Unfortunately, when the API is enabled, anybody can still access all the hidden 
information (article history, etc.). That's why I want to block the API. But 
then I kill search suggestions. :-)

I'm grateful for any advice you may have. Thank you.
