I spent about 15 minutes working on [[April 5]] only to have the database lockout hit me just as I saw saving. I have no interest in doing all that work again. Mav, have at it.
Normally, one hits "back", and copies the text from the edit box, and pastes it into a nice text file.
In case this is problematic on Internet Explorer and other notoriously wikipedia-unfriendly browsers, I've just tweaked it so that trying to save a page during lockout in the future will divert to a preview, giving you a chance to copy the text without hitting 'back'.
