**Reproduce:**

1. Create a topic and make the lead post a wiki post.
2. Optionally add some replies.
3. Lock the topic.

**Expected Results:**

- It is no longer possible to edit the wiki post.

**Actual Results:**

- It **IS** possible to edit the wiki post.

_While it’s still possible to remove the wiki option from the post in the locked topic, if I assumed that locking the topic would prevent edits to the wiki post, I figure maybe I’m not the only one. (But history has shown that’s often wrong!)_
