I don't believe we need a set guildline for how long a page should be locked as it can depend on the situation, whether it be edit warring, specualtion of an upcoming game, vandalism, or something else. Ultimately I think it should up to admin discression, like a block. It is true that when a page is locked, some admins have the tendancy to to simply lock it indefinately and forget about it, myself being one of them in the past. I would suggest that we remind all admins to not block a page indefinately and instead pick an appropriate page lock duration for the situation.
