There are situations where not even the administrators of a particular community should be allowed to edit a page. A good example would be the pages that describe the copyright and licensing of Wikimedia products.

Since being full protected 6 years ago, Enwiki's current license page has been edited by administrators nearly 50 times. Most of those edits consist of modifying categories, interwikis, navigational templates, similar things. Those edits probably aren't essential, but I would still say they are useful.
Though hypothetically possible I can't think of any examples of an admin on enwiki modifying a legal page in a harmful way, which makes it seem like you have solution for a problem that doesn't actually exist.

It has been a year (and a day) since the gerrit 153302 [1] has been merged and deployed to the dewiki.
And it's high time it got removed.
