Collaborative editing is usually the practice of groups producing works together through individual contributions. Most usually it is applied to textual documents or programmatic source code. Such asynchronous (non-simultaneous) contributions are very efficient in time, as group members need not assemble in order to work together. Generally, managing such work requires software; the most common tools for editing documents are Wikis, and those for programming, version control systems. Most word processors are also capable of recording changes; this allows many editors to work on the same document while automatically clearly labeling who contributed what changes.
Wikipedia is an example of a collaborative editing project on a large scale.
