Help:Edit conflict
From Wikia Help
(Redirected from Edit conflict)
An edit conflict is usually where two or more users start to edit the same part of a page at the same time and come up with different changes.
What happens, and how do I avoid edit conflicts with others?
The second editor to press save will be told that there is a conflict due to someone else saving the page since they started editing it.
See Help:Edit conflict on Meta-Wiki for details on what happens, how to deal with edit conflicts, and advice on avoiding them.
How did I get in an edit conflict with myself?
This occasionally happens if you edit, save, and then hit your browser's "Back" button to go back to the edit box. You can avoid it by using the "edit" button to open a new instance of the edit box rather than using "Back".
