[WikiEN-l] Policy on Reversions?

[Poor, Edmund W]

I think Daniel (maveric) is not really proposing 
a change in policy, so much as he is making a call 
for a more congenial and cooperative attitude. 

Repeatedly reverting others' edits is a pointless 
waste of time and will never resolve controversies 
about facts or points of view (POV). We ought to make 
a distinction, as I think mav has done, between (1)
taking a firm stand against simple vandalism like 
"you are a poopoo head" and (2) stubbornly insisting 
on "rightness" in a POV dispute.

Resolution of a dispute requires a mutually agreeable 
outcome, a "win-win" condition. Otherwise, it's 
not stable. We ought to work toward stability by 
clarifying each person's win conditions.
