Wikien-l,
I have just been blocked for an alleged 3RR violation at Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda
I thought the rules favored the contributor, since the first edit doesn't count as a
revert, but in this case it appears the first edit is being counted as a revert so the
deletionist is getting the final say.
While my first edit is adding text that I have previously proposed, it is two days later
and to a new version of the article. The text had previously been opposed but on
unconvincing, rather spurious grounds that I have responded to in good faith on the talk
page and in the edit summaries. I think this article is heading for two versions because
csloat is trying to rally a clique, but in the meantime I am curious about this technical
issue of how edits/reverts are counted. I would not have knowingly violated 3RR,
apologies if I am wrong.
-- thanx for your consideration,
Silverback
