Yes the Documentation format will mean that regular authenticated  
users can't edit the page. You need to edit each page you wish to lock  
and set the format. I don't know of any other way to do it. That is  
why I'd like us to compile a list as a group and then run a little  
focused sprint to go through and set all of the ones we deem needing  
it so no one person is stuck with a hugely tedious task on their own.

We should try, as much as possible, to identify "sections" to be  
locked rather than individual pages. We need to explain to people why  
they can't edit certain pages and "groups" or "types" of pages makes a  
lot more sense. Ones with images or tables is easy to explain. The  
Getting started guide is easy. Random individual pages with no images  
or tables in them is not so easy.

No way that I know of right now without a custom DB query. You'd have  
to write up a query and post it to the infra queue to get someone with  
rights to run it for you.
