-------------- Original message --------------

I agree whole-heartedly. Reverts should really only be seen from trolls and POV-pushers, who find the edit summary or talk page irrelevant.

Don't edit pages with POV pushers on them, if you aren't willing to revert, it will put you at a disadvantage. Some of those pages are among my favorites. The real problem is not POV pushers, but POV suppressors, who won't let any other POV on a page.

I seldom have trouble with POV pushers, because I am tolerant of other POVs. If the other POV has any legitimacy and at all, I usually am tolerant of it as long as it is fairly characterized, will will usually assist in fairly characterizing it.

Some pages are guarded by POV suppressors, and some busy pages have whole cliques of POV suppressors.
