2.Lock all layers of the page as explained in Locking layers.

On such page, no user can edit anything. In order to edit such page, user have to unlock layers first, and then unlock objects and page elements. Only users with lock level which is equal or greater than the level with which the items were protected, can perform unprotecting.
