 * I need a security level of user that let’s a user add and modify pages they’ve
   created. This is similar to the Author function except that the Author function
   only allows them to add and edit POSTS and I need them to be able to add and 
   edit PAGES. But only the pages they create should they be able to edit.
 * Any ideas?

 * You could also used the [members plugin](http://wordpress.org/plugins/members/)
