I'm glad you guys are communicating.  I noticed that you were both editing
the same page about the same time, and wondered if the "warn about duplicate
editing" feature was working.  It may not be.
 
Warn on edit conflicts WAS checked, but enable page locking was not.  I've
enabled that, and I've added page locking to the permissions for registered
users, so you can lock a page while editing it.
 
I've also set it so the creator of a page is automatically the admin of it.

No biggie - I was just killing my lunch hour doing something 
interesting for a change. The content is all still stored in the 
history. Imagine my surprise when I refreshed the page and it was 
completely different from the one I was working on!

It looks like we've all got some input we want to share - just a 
matter of coordinating our efforts :-). I'll cut & paste my stuff 
back in later tonight...
