Content Lock
The purpose of this module is to avoid the situation where two people are editing a single node at the same time. This module implements a pessimistic locking strategy, which means that content will be exclusively locked whenever a user starts editing it.
The lock will be automatically released when the user submits the form or navigates away from the edit page. Content locks that have been "forgotten" can be automatically releasedafter a configurable time span using the bundled content_lock_timeout sub module.
