Vandalism can

3RR). In
content disputes you always need to take care not to break the 3

I don't understand what you said that is contrary to what I said. I
quote from the 3RR policy:
The policy states that an editor must not perform more than three
reversions, in whole or in part, on a single Wikipedia article within
24 hours of their first reversion. (This does not apply to self-
reverts or correction of simple vandalism)
I said that exemption from the 3RR rule only applies to reverting
vandalism, which is word-for-word from the policy. The policy is
clear that content disputes do not count as "simple vandalism".

My bad. I didn't take the word exemption into account when I read that.
You're absolutely right. Sorry.
