In theory, yes. In practice, no. On alternative medicine
articles we had a group of POV warriors (such as Mr.
Natural Health) making non-stop reversions, deleting
mention of critical studies and peer-reviewed data. Yet
very few people with a background in medicine or science
were willing to edit these articles, as they did not want
to put up with the harassment.
On other forums, the same was true in regards to the
subject of L. Ron Hubbard and Scientology. Many people
were harassed and threatened, and eventually driven away
from a number of forums; the loonies took over the asylym.
If no one is helping you in a mass-revert situation, this
is not proof you are wrong. Just ask any of the victims of
scientology. (Entire book and websites describe the legal
and physical abuses that some Scientologist adherents have
thrust upon people that they perceive as enemies.)
