| The '''zero-revert rule''' states: | |||
| :"If anyone makes a change that you don't like, don't revert it. Instead, try to incorporate as much of it as possible, or at least talk about it on the article's discussion page or on the user's talk page. This excludes ]." | |||
| Vandalism is defined in this article as anything that everybody, including the alleged vandal, agrees is vandalism. | |||
| This rule is primarily for teams of contributors who want to avoid ]s and ]. Having realized that article development has ground to a halt because of incessant reversions, the people agreeing to following the zero-revert rule have a higher respect for each others edits than those agreeing to revert only once. | |||
| As of December 06, 2005, there are no teams following this rule yet, but that's just because they haven't transcended to this, the hightest level of edithood. | |||
| Non-members of the future ZeroRR teams are not bound by this rule. For them, the ] still applies, or for some neanderthals, the ] can still be used (i.e., no more than 3 reverts per user per article, in any 24-hour period). | |||
| Note that the three-revert rule is NOT voluntary, and is enforced by the ]. The zero-revert rule is voluntary and as such is not enforced (other than by conscience and pizza at Sarah's house for members in good standing). | |||
| Team members sign up and are initially considered "members in good standing". Upon detecting a rule violation (i.e., reverting anything instead of discussing the revert), any member in good standing may '''move the name''' of the violator to the "Suspended" section. The result of a suspension is that the members who are still in good standing obviously continue to trust each other and eat pizza harmoniously. | |||
| Regaining one's standing is as easy as (1) undoing the revert that merited the suspension, (2) discussing the edit in question, and (3) agreeing to buy one of the pizzas (not Little Ceasars). While on suspension, one ought not to attempt to restore his own credentials; please wait for a member in good standing to finish his thick crust. | |||
