As a new user, you might want/need to edit the same page several times in succession to get things right. Any edit count based throttling should take that into account.
We do have a 'preview' button. I expect it would merely train people to preview their work more.
Perhaps. It could also easily have the effect of getting them irritated and leave. "Let's make this wonderful article.... Ready, submit." "Oops, I made a typo... Let's correct it." "You have already made an edit this minute." "Okay, wait a minute... Let's load this other website in the meantime." "Ah, finally... Oooh... Another typo." "You have already made an edit this minute." "Ah well, if they don't want me, that's their problem. Let's go to that other cool website."
