Is there a way to setup TWiki so that when a user edits a page, it is not updated instantly but instead held somewhere until an admin accepts the revision?

Discussion and Answer

Not at the wiki level, this is not the collaborative wiki way. However, you can implement an approval/review process at the application level.

For example, blog entries in blog application of the Blog web have a flag, If set to "Draft", it is not shown in the blog home, if set to "BlogPost" it is. See BlogPostForm definition; edit sample post BlogEntry200901x1 to see the form that has the flag.

I haven't tried them myself, but you might also want to look at various plugins with the workflow tag, e.g., ApprovalPlugin, WorkflowPlugin, MetaWorkflowPlugin
