Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to managing a collaborated environment. A set of editing rules are configured for a shared document. A first edit is received at a first time at a first location of the shared document. A second edit is received at a second time at the first location of the shared document which attempts to overwrite a portion of the first edit. A determination is made whether at least one editing rule of the set of editing rules is violated. In response to determining that at least one editing rule of the set of editing rules is violated, an alert action can be issued to a user associated with the second edit.
