On reverting

I want to take a moment to comment on the recent bit of warring. I have experienced a ton of edit-warring in my experience of close to 9000 edits here and have come to some definite conclusions about it.

This relates again to the COFS arb. I am sorry to have multiple issues going here but I need some help with. I made a much-needed edit to the WP:EL at. On 9 Jan, I announced my intention to make these edits on the talk page and received only a little discussion but agreement that some work was needed on the links. Two days later, on 11 Jan, I made the edit. The edit stood and for the next two days a number of regular editors had a bit of discussion on the talk page about one link or another but no major objections to what I had did. Now comes Olberon and edit-wars with me over the inclusion. He has gone 2RR and I went 1RR so now my edit stands undone. I will not go 2RR on a page under article probation so I am at a disadvantage. Will someone please ask Olberon to self-revert and warn him about edit-warring under article probation. He ignored my warning. Thanks. --JustaHulk (talk) 16:02, 13 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Sorry, too, but the kind of en masse reversion you performed is just plain rude. If we posit that my intention in my edit was to improve the article then you are violating WP:AGF by flatly reverting it. If it were your intention also to improve the article then you might make a considered edit or a change in my edit. As BTfromLA did. Your bulk reversion indicated to me that your purpose was not to improve the article but to practice obstructionism for whatever reason. --JustaHulk (talk) 03:54, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

How to not have a collaborative encyclopedia Simple. Disrespect established editors by reverting and undoing their proper edits. Want to have a collaborative encyclopedia? Then change, i.e add to, subtract from, rearrange, etc., those edits instead of reverting or undoing.
