As a courtesy, please do not edit this article when you see this message. The person who added this notice will be listed in the edit history of this article. If this article has not been edited recently, please remove this template. This message is intended to help reduce edit conflicts; please remove it between editing sessions to allow others to improve the article.
The Inusetemplate 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.
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)}}. If you want to reserve it until a certain time, or use a different custom message without the word "for," use {{inuse||for=|until (time)}} or {{inuse||for=|custom message}}. Please remember to remove the Inuse note as soon as you're finished editing.
