===Three Revert Rule=== |
|||
Please check [[Wikipedia:Three-revert rule]] as regards the three revert rule |
|||
The '''three-revert rule''' (often referred to as '''3RR''') is a policy that applies to all [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedian]]s, and is intended to prevent [[Wikipedia:Edit war|edit warring]]: |
|||
::An editor '''must not''' perform more than three [[Wikipedia:Revert|reverts]], ''in whole or in part'', on a single page within a 24-hour period. A revert means undoing the actions of another editor, whether involving the same or different material each time. |
|||
:Any editor who breaches the rule may be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]] for up to 24 hours in the first instance, and longer for repeated or aggravated violations. |
|||
:The rule applies per editor. The use of [[Wikipedia:Sock puppetry|multiple accounts]] is not a legitimate way to avoid this limit, and reverts by multiple accounts are counted as reverts made by one editor. The rule otherwise applies to all editors individually. |
|||
:The rule applies per page. For example, if an editor performs three reverts on each of two articles within 24 hours, that editor's six reversions do not constitute a violation of this rule, although it may well indicate that the editor is [[Wikipedia:Disruptive editing|being disruptive]]. |
|||
:The rule does not convey an entitlement to revert three times each day, nor does it endorse reverting as an editing technique; rather, the rule is an "[[electric fence]]".<ref name="electric fence">See [[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Charles Darwin-Lincoln dispute#3RR is not an entitlement]].</ref> Editors may still be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] ''even if they have not made more than three reverts in any given 24 hour period'', if their behavior is clearly disruptive. This particularly applies to editors who persistently make three reverts each day, or three reverts on each of a group of pages, in an apparent effort to [[WP:GAME|game the system]]. Many administrators give less leniency to users who have been blocked before, and may block such users for any disruptive edit warring, even if they do not exceed three reverts on a page in 24 hours. Similarly, editors who may have technically violated the 3RR may not be blocked, depending on circumstances. |

Three Revert Rule
Please check Wikipedia:Three-revert rule as regards the three revert rule The three-revert rule (often referred to as 3RR) is a policy that applies to all Wikipedians, and is intended to prevent edit warring:
- An editor must not perform more than three reverts, in whole or in part, on a single page within a 24-hour period. A revert means undoing the actions of another editor, whether involving the same or different material each time.
- Any editor who breaches the rule may be blocked from editing for up to 24 hours in the first instance, and longer for repeated or aggravated violations.
- The rule applies per editor. The use of multiple accounts is not a legitimate way to avoid this limit, and reverts by multiple accounts are counted as reverts made by one editor. The rule otherwise applies to all editors individually.
- The rule applies per page. For example, if an editor performs three reverts on each of two articles within 24 hours, that editor's six reversions do not constitute a violation of this rule, although it may well indicate that the editor is being disruptive.
- The rule does not convey an entitlement to revert three times each day, nor does it endorse reverting as an editing technique; rather, the rule is an "electric fence".[1] Editors may still be blocked even if they have not made more than three reverts in any given 24 hour period, if their behavior is clearly disruptive. This particularly applies to editors who persistently make three reverts each day, or three reverts on each of a group of pages, in an apparent effort to game the system. Many administrators give less leniency to users who have been blocked before, and may block such users for any disruptive edit warring, even if they do not exceed three reverts on a page in 24 hours. Similarly, editors who may have technically violated the 3RR may not be blocked, depending on circumstances.
