This is probably a bad idea.
I've locked the database and disabled the delete function for now. When I finish restoring the main page from the tarball I made yesterday, I'll unlock the database, but I'll leave delete disabled until I can make it safer.
The obvious answer is to make it impossible to delete a locked page until it has been unlocked by a sysop, which takes a seperate step. That would prevent accidental deletion as well as anything else.
