Perhaps it would be easier if there was a clear idea on when something is a revert.
Something is a revert when you can perswade a blocking admin that it was a revert.
Having "rv" or "revert" in the edit summary is a good indicator. Having a null diff is another.
No, it could be just the first step in getting back to a certain version for further editing. A rv followed by one or more new edits by the same person, is not a revert, but should be assumed to be a good faith edit. i.e., a revert as part of a multipart edit is not a revert, sometimes the rv is in the summary when there is an edit at the same time, for instance when you revert and incorporate corrections that had been made to the other version at the same time. -- Silverback -- Silverback
