What can I do with this system value?

This system value has the following options:
- Change (*CHANGE)
- Allows the public to change newly created objects.
- Use (*USE)
- The public may view, but not change, newly created objects.
- All (*ALL)
- Allows all users of the system, except those given an authority less than All, to completely control the newly created objects. These users will be able to read, change, delete, and manage the security of these objects.
- Exclude (*EXCLUDE)
- The public is not allowed to use the newly created objects.
