+### Concurrent editing notifications
+
+When multiple users concurrently work on the same content, Wagtail now displays notifications to inform them of potential editing conflicts. When a user saves their work, other users are informed and presented with options: they can refresh the page to view the latest changes, or proceed with their own changes, overwriting the other user's work.
+
+Concurrent editing notifications are available for pages, and snippets. Specific messaging about conflicting versions is only available for pages and snippets with [support for saving revisions](wagtailsnippets_saving_revisions_of_snippets). To configure how often notifications are updated, use [`WAGTAIL_EDITING_SESSION_PING_INTERVAL`](wagtail_editing_session_ping_interval).

+This feature was implemented by Matt Westcott and Sage Abdullah.
