[WikiEN-l] 3RR - does it also apply to sysops?

Disclaimer: This email is written in good faith.

There is a user who is removing their own reports from the Vandalism in 
progress page. This user was listed yesterday for reverting a page at 
least 5 times. The reverting was not removing vandalism but was 
asserting a POV. As far as I am aware, this user should have been 
blocked for 24 hours, but it does not appear this happened.

By the way, this user is also a sysop, but should this make a 
difference? This is a serious question.
