It can be done with the API (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Users).
 However, OAuth also has a concept of scopes.  So you can request a
'protect' scope, for example.  You should only get it if they both have
the protect right *and* choose to grant it via OAuth to your Moodle site.

See
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/OAuth#Suggested_Granularity_of_Permissions (list
is not final).
