How to make recent changes page inaccessible for anonymous users in MediaWiki?

Question

There's a page: /index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges visible to every user authorized/unauthorised, is there a way to make this page inaccessible for anonymous users?

I've read this page already: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Recent_changes, but didn't find required information.

Answer 1

You could use the Lockdown extension to achieve this

$wgSpecialPageLockdown['RecentChanges'] = [ 'user' ];
