Each article has a single owner. The owner is responsible for keeping the article accurate and up to date. When something needs to be done on an article, the owner is notified first.

To help owners, 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 edit the article, their number appears after the owner's name, for example "Anna Smith & 2 others". The owner stays in front, and readers see that others worked on the article. A name cannot be removed from this count: when a member with the contributor role in the space edits an article, their name is added and stays there. If another name should come first, change the owner.

The "Content owner" panel on the right shows the owner. If you have the right, click "Change" to choose another owner. The previous owner stays in the list of contributors. When someone leaves the platform, you can give all their articles to another person with Transfer articles.
