Article Ownership
Each article has one owner, responsible for keeping it accurate.

Article ownership is an important concept in Elium.
Each article has a single owner. The owner is responsible for keeping the article accurate and up to date. When a task is needed on an article, the owner is notified first.
To help owners in this task, Elium provides expiration dates, article transfer and approval.
The owner's picture and name are shown at the top of the article.
When other people contribute to the article, their number is shown after the owner's name, for example "Anna Smith & 2 others". This keeps the focus on the owner while showing that other people worked on the article.
The "Content owner" panel on the right shows the owner. If you have the right to do it, click "Change" to choose another owner.
