Is this any better...?
To set a password on an individual wiki page, add ?action=attr
to the page's URL (address) to access its attributes. Using the
small form on the attributes page, you can set or clear the read,
edit, or attr passwords on the page. In the form you enter the
passwords as cleartext; PmWiki encrypts them for you automatically
when it stores them. Leaving a field blank will leave the attribute
unchanged. To remove a password from a page (reverting back to the
group's or site's default), enter "clear". To indicate that the
page can be edited even if a group or site password is set,
enter "nopass".
