	These files are not Jinja2 templates, so there's no reason that they needed to be inside `templates/zerver`. Moving them to the top level reflects their importance and also makes it feel nicer to work on editing the help center content, without it being unnecessary buried deep in the codebase.

| # Restrict stream creation
 | |
| 
 | |
| {!admin-only.md!}
 | |
| 
 | |
| Zulip allows you to separately control [permissions](/help/roles-and-permissions)
 | |
| for creating [web-public](/help/public-access-option), public and private
 | |
| streams.
 | |
| 
 | |
| For corporations and other organizations with controlled access, we
 | |
| recommend keeping stream creation open to make it easy for users to
 | |
| self-organize.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Only users in trusted roles (moderators and administrators) can be
 | |
| given permission to create web-public streams. This is intended
 | |
| [to help manage abuse](/help/public-access-option#managing-abuse) by
 | |
| making it hard for an attacker to host malicious content in an
 | |
| unadvertised web-public stream in a legitimate organization.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Manage who can create streams
 | |
| 
 | |
| {start_tabs}

|

 | |
|

| {settings_tab|organization-permissions}
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. Under **Stream permissions**, configure **Who can create public streams**.
 | |
| 
 | |
| {!save-changes.md!}
 | |
| 
 | |
| {tab|private-streams}
 | |
| 
 | |
| {settings_tab|organization-permissions}
