As a courtesy, please do not edit this page while this message is
displayed. The user who added this notice will be listed in the page

[edit] Usage

The Inuse template message is placed at the top of a page you are
actively editing for a short period of time. The tag is intended to
inform people that someone is currently working on the article, thereby
reducing edit conflicts. Please do not leave it in place for more than
the few hours at most that should be necessary, as doing so may
unnecessarily discourage others from contributing to the article. If it
has been up for more than two hours since the last edit, it should be
removed. Specifying periods of several days or longer for this template
goes against the spirit of simply avoiding edit conflicts; please only
use it for sessions where you are actively editing the article.

If you wish to indicate that an article is being rebuilt over a longer
period of time consider the {{underconstruction}} template. That
template encourages others to edit the article while indicating that it
is a work in progress.

To use, just add {{inuse}} at the top of the article you want to work
on. If you want to reserve it for a specific length of time and
optionally, a message, use {{inuse|time (message)}}.

Please remember to remove the Inuse note as soon as you're finished
editing.
