In order to create a content type like page of a book in Drupal or a wiki page , I would like to allow a role to be able to edit any content-page of a book (something like administer books which exists in the book module).

For the time being the only solution to achieve that is to give full administer content types which implies to many privileges like creating new content types or editing/deliting old ones.

Hoping this will not be too difficult, thank you for all the work already done.

At the moment, you can achieve this through the use of an access control module like node_privacy_byrole.

I tried to do that with node_privacy_byrole but I don't see where it helps, it does just the same thing Simple_access does and it does not allow specific roles to administer a content-type. What we need here is a new access control named "administer-content-foobar"

Oops, sorry, I didn't understand the first question. I will have to post a new issue for my own question.

Have a look at the "Full CRUD support" patch (Create, Read, Update, Delete) for content types by Bèr Kessels: it's a feature request in progress that should let you do what you are looking for.

PS: maybe this can be considered as 'duplicate' issue?
