Log in on any page but... 

You may log in on any UWRF web page but you will only be able to edit pages that you have been granted author rights. While remaining logged in you may navigate to a page to which you have access.

Editing an existing page

To edit a page, go to:

View > Work on this Page (All Changes)

If those options are grayed out, you do not have permissions for the page.
