Edit Stomp: Difference between revisions

This is a wiki trope for wikis (like [[TV Tropes]], but not All The Tropes) that put up a "lock" on edits for a brief period, so one person can make an edit to an article while another editor is trying to "get at" the article. If two people take the article open for editing at the same moment, or override the other's lock inadvertently, there is a chance that one editor's changes may be lost, except in the page history. (This won't happen ''accidentally'' at All The Tropes, because MediaWiki detects when this happens and will open a side-by-side comparison editor to allow you to reconcile the two versions.)
