Did you communicate first? The first reversion is wrong, regardless of who does it, unless they've communicated.
I disagree. Entirely.
Example 1: Admin A protects a 'high use' template to prevent possible vandalism. Months pass and the template is deprecated and is now barely used. Admin B unprotects the template without 'discussion'. Admin B has done nothing wrong whatsoever.
Example 2: Admin A is in discussion with other admins and states that they are going to take a course of action. The other admins all strongly object and state their reasons. Admin A goes ahead with their plan anyway. No reversion has taken place but in my view Admin A is clearly 'wrong' and any Admin B would be justified in reversing it based on the existing consensus.
The 'first reverter' is NOT always the problem and 'discussion' does not cure all ills. I don't think I've ever seen a serious wheel war where discussion WASN'T going on.
