you post a bunch of stuff, and I come along a month later and correct your mistakes, then you put it back the way it was before I corrected it?

democracy isnt a good thing in all aspects of life - sometimes you need a supreme commander

or editor :^)
On wikipedia, such conflicts are known as "edit wars" and they do happen occasionally when articles are politically charged. Of course, this type of problem is unlikely on FIRSTwiki, and, as phrontist said, an admin can arbitrate any such conflicts. Additionally, every page has an accompnaying "talk" or discussion page where any arguments can take place and people can post comments or information helpful to others editing the same page.

Ken, I know there are millions of other questions and problems an engineer such as yourself could think of, but the best way to answer them is to just take a look for yourself, or better yet, try contributing.
