The facilities are already in place for the system admin (us) to lock
any page.

Also, in order to make everyone more comfortable with this I have
changed the settings so that only the system administrator can create
an account.

-- What that means is that if anyone wants to contribute they will
have to send a note to support@ to have an account created for them.

We will create an account for anyone who has something of value to
contribute. We will revoke any accounts that abuse the system.

It makes me sad to have to do this so soon after turning the system
on, but apparently there is no other way to do this without causing a
near panic.

Hope this helps,
