Things to Remember
Do NOT restore a previous version of the document but give Maria a call to sort out the situation.
Since there are so many of us working in the same document, tracking changes will make the document look very messy.
If you add a longer text, just add it without "Track changes" being active. Add a comment for the others to see that you have added the paragraph.
Only use "Track changes" if you would like to suggest changes in a paragraph written by another person. Make sure you track only your own changes:
This will help avoid sync issues.
To create automatic table of contents, to easily navigate in the document and - most importantly - to quickly apply a set of formatting choices consistently throughout our documents, we use paragraph styles.
Please delete all empty lines / paragraphs! Space before / after is defined in the paragraph style. So e.g. the space before / after heading 1 can be changed for all headings with one click.

Make yourself familiar with paragraph styles to use Word efficiently (not just in this project ;-)):
To easily navigate in a document (using the headings), activate the "Navigation Pane" in the Tab "View".
