Thats quite reasonable. Did that person actually get banned for their good faith action?
Wow, looks like she did:
10:33, 18 October 2006 Darwinek (Talk | contribs | block) blocked "Aarcelay (contribs)" with an expiry time of 3 hours (.numerous vandalism)
Only three hours, but IMO this _does_ put a significant black mark on Darwinek now. I can understand not looking in sufficient detail to notice the problems when simply reverting a blanking, but one definitely shouldn't block someone without at least some sort of attempt at interaction with them to confirm what's going on. And two blankings doesn't really count as "numerous vandalism."
Bit of a surprise, really. I hadn't even considered checking this before giving that hypothetical example.
