Well, if people aren't allowed to edit the pages without review from the mailing list--and pretty much everyone who's on the mailing list can have (or should have, IMHO) sysop priveleges, then the pages are in effect locked down. And if they're in effect locked down, then they should be locked down. Otherwise there's a logical disconnect.

When I said "lock down" I meant "prevent unauthorized edits". It doesn't matter if that prevention is done through technology or practice--it all amounts to the same thing.

Locked down against whom? Where's the fire? Aside from vandals, you're the only person I can think of who has changed them to read something which is not policy.
