==What should I do in a lockout==
Lockouts do not prevent registered users from editing the wiki; only unregistered users are locked out. Due to the nature of the protection used by VSTF members during lockout, an unregistered contributor cannot register and immediately begin editing - users have to be "auto-confirmed" before they can bypass semi-protections such as those used during a lockout, and newly-registered users typically are not auto-confirmed. However, registering an account is still a good idea, because users that have registered and are auto-confirmed can still edit normally during possible future lockouts.
Remember that lockouts are very rare incidents. Under normal circumstances, unregistered contributors are able to edit the wiki just as registered contributors are.
