Lock courses or content to prevent editing by another user including teachers?

Lock courses or content to prevent editing by another user including teachers? another teacher on my courses deleted content in error and unpublished my course also in the process .

I think these are two separate suggestions; I would definitely be up for locking content while someone is editing, or at the very least providing a clear alert to say that someone is currently editing.

I have a Teaching Assistant role on a large course with 40-50 teaching contributors, and I have a hard enough time keeping on top of correcting any link errors and unifying accessible formatting across the course - but far too often I have fixed a page, only to come back 20mins later and find it has reverted, because someone was also editing the original page at the same time as I was, and they saved their edits after me.
