Personally, I do believe it's up to the people who took the responsibility to manage the wiki to decide about the protection level. And I do believe they didn't protect the page for no reason. Important pages, important templates, and important files, would be better be protected as a safeguard to prevent vandalism. If non-admin want to make or suggest changes to the protected pages/templates/files, they can use the "talk page" or contact the available admins. If all the admins been away for a long time, "adoption" is the next option they can take.
