In fact, engaging in such behavior will usually inflame the dispute, poisoning the environment that all Wikipedia editors share.</figcaption></figure> <p>An <b>edit war</b> occurs when editors who disagree about the content of a page repeatedly override each other's contributions. Editors engaged in a dispute should reach <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Consensus" title="Wikipedia:Consensus">consensus</a> or pursue <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution" title="Wikipedia:Dispute resolution">dispute resolution</a> rather than edit war. Edit warring is unconstructive, creates animosity between editors, makes consensus harder to reach, and causes confusion for readers. Users who engage in edit warring risk being <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Blocking_policy" title="Wikipedia:Blocking policy">blocked</a> or even <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Banning_policy" title="Wikipedia:Banning policy">banned</a>. An editor who repeatedly restores their preferred version is edit warring, regardless of whether those edits are justifiable. Claiming "My edits were right, so it wasn't edit warring" is not a valid defense. </p><p>There is a <a href="/wiki/Bright-line_rule" title="Bright-line rule">bright line</a> known as the <strong><a href="#The_three-revert_rule">three-revert rule</a></strong> (<strong>3RR</strong>). To <a href="/wiki/Help:Reverting" title="Help:Reverting">revert</a> is to undo the action of another editor. The three-revert rule states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material, on a single page within a 24-hour period. Any appearance of <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Gaming_the_system" title="Wikipedia:Gaming the system">gaming the system</a> by reverting a fourth time just outside of the 24-hour slot will usually be considered edit warring. There are certain exemptions to the three-revert rule, such as reverting vandalism or clear violations of the policy on biographies of living persons; see <a href="#Exemptions">below</a> for details. The three-revert rule is a convenient limit for occasions when an edit war is happening fairly quickly; it <em>is not</em> a definition of "edit warring", and it is absolutely possible to engage in edit warring without breaking the three-revert rule, or even coming close to doing so. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc"/> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2

This may be the beginning of a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BOLD,_revert,_discuss_cycle" title="Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle">bold, revert, discuss</a> (BRD) cycle. An edit war only arises if the situation develops into a series of back-and-forth reverts.

However, edits from a slanted <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view" title="Wikipedia:Neutral point of view">point of view</a>, general insertion or removal of material, or other good-faith changes are not considered vandalism. See <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Vandalism#Types_of_vandalism" title="Wikipedia:Vandalism">Wikipedia:Vandalism § Types of vandalism</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Vandalism#What_is_not_vandalism" title="Wikipedia:Vandalism">Wikipedia:Vandalism § What is not vandalism</a>.</li> <li>Reverting to enforce certain overriding policies is not considered edit warring. For example, under the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons" title="Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons">policy on biographies of living persons</a>, where negative unsourced content is being introduced, the risk of harm is such that removal is required.</li> <li>Reverting edits of <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Banning_policy" title="Wikipedia:Banning policy">banned</a> or <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Blocking_policy" title="Wikipedia:Blocking policy">blocked</a> users is not edit warring.</li> <li>Reverting edits in one's own user page is rarely edit warring. Traditionally, Wikipedia offers wide latitude to users to manage their user space as they see fit.

While any amount of edit warring may lead to sanctions, there is a <a href="/wiki/Bright-line_rule" title="Bright-line rule">bright-line rule</a> called the <strong>three-revert rule</strong> (<strong>3RR</strong>), the violation of which will usually be considered edit warring, and often leads to the user engaging in the behavior to be blocked. </p><p>The three-revert rule states: </p> <div style="border: 2px solid #990000; background-color: #FFCCCC; border-radius: 1em; padding: 10px;"> <p>An editor must not perform <strong>more than three reverts</strong> on a <strong>single page</strong>—whether involving the same or different material—within a <strong>24-hour period</strong>. An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes or manually reverses other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert. Violations of this rule often attract blocks of at least 24 hours. Fourth reverts just outside the 24-hour period will usually also be considered edit-warring, especially if repeated or combined with other edit-warring behavior. See <a href="#Exemptions">below</a> for exemptions. </p> </div> <p>The term "page" in the three-revert rule above is defined as any page on Wikipedia, including those in talk and project <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Namespace" title="Wikipedia:Namespace">spaces</a>. The term "revert" is defined as any edit (or administrative action) that reverses or undoes the actions of other editors, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material, and whether performed using <a href="/wiki/Help:Reverting#Undo" title="Help:Reverting">undo</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Rollback" title="Wikipedia:Rollback">rollback</a>, or done so completely manually. A series of consecutively saved reverting edits by one user, with no intervening edits by another user, counts as one revert. </p><p><span class="anchor" id="Notentitled"></span>The three-revert rule applies per person, not per account; reverts made by <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppetry#Legitimate_uses" title="Wikipedia:Sockpuppetry">multiple accounts</a> operated by one editor count together.
