Systems and methods for editing electronic documents in collaborative environment are described. In one implementation, a document collaboration system comprises a processor, and a scheduling module, coupled to the processor. The scheduling module receives request of a user for either one of collaborative editing and collaborative reviewing a section of the electronic document during a schedule time selected by the user. The scheduling module further retrieves a schedule from the user from an electronic calendar of the user. The scheduling module ascertains the electronic document availability in the selected schedule time slot. On ascertaining the availability of the electronic document during the selected time slot, the scheduling module determines availability of users in the selected schedule time slot. The scheduling module provides permission to either one of the collaborative editing and collaborative reviewing the section of the electronic document, for the selected schedule time, based on determining.

Collaborative editing of electronic documents

Example embodiments relate to smart content feeds for document collaboration. In example embodiments, a user may use a system to perform a search of a document repository in order to identify related content for adding to a target document. In response to a user approving the related content identified in the search, the system may create a reference data entry that includes a timestamp and a storage location of a source document that contains the related content. The system may then use the timestamp to detect that a modification of the source document has occurred and generate a notification for the user that describes the modification.
