I can recommend searching "reverts wikipedia" on the google scholar: http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=reverts+wikipedia
If you want to try running some analysis on the dump yourself, there's reverts analysis python code available here: http://code.google.com/p/pymwdat/

Hello,
does anyone have a rough estimate of how many edits get reverted? Does anyone have a study handy?
Cheers, Denny
