Is this all possible through a nginx config? If so, are there some 
examples you could point me to?

Or do you know if I'd have to get Mediawiki modified to do something 
like this?

This is also possible, but again, it would be good to do a lockdown in 
some way other than requiring the user to enter a password...

Thanks!
