Why does the topic revision not increase when I edit a topic?
-**Answer:**
+## <a name="Answer:"></a> Answer:
The same topic revision will be used when you save a topic again within a certain time frame (one hour by default). This is to prevent unnecessary topic revisions when you do several edit cycles in a row. Note that a new revision **_is_** created if another person edits the same topic, regardless of the time.

+## <a name="FAQ:"></a> FAQ:
What happens if two of us try to edit the same topic simultaneously?
-**Answer:**
+## <a name="Answer:"></a> Answer:
The second person gets a warning that the topic is currently being edited by another user. A topic gets locked automatically for some time (default is one hour) when you edit, preview or save the topic. If you get the lock warning you should wait until the lock is gone or contact the other person to ask if you can go ahead and break the lock. See also [[UnlockTopic]].

Everybody can edit any page, this is scary. Doesn't that lead to chaos?
-**Answer:**
+## <a name="Answer:"></a> Answer:
%WIKITOOLNAME% is one of many [[WikiWikiClones]], the first one was built by Ward Cummingham. Collaborating the Wiki way is different from other collaboration tools like Usenet. A distinct **_Wiki culture_** forms around these tools:
- Wiki is far from real time. Folk have time to think, often days or weeks, before they follow up some wiki page. So what people write is well-considered.
