The edit lock is a feature we have in place to prevent two people from editing the same workspace page at the same time. There is no way to turn it off. If you are editing a page, no one else will be able to unless one of these things happens:
* You save the page.
* You hit cancel and don't save your changes.
* You make no changes on the page for five minutes or more.
If you leave the page alone for more than 5 minutes, another user can "steal" editing privileges from you. This cancels your changes and they can make their own changes. Save often and work cooperatively to edit. This will require some communication between yourself and others working on your page.
