Se credi che tu abbia ripristinato molte volte i vandalismi di uno stesso indirizzo IP o di un utente bannato, è meglio che tu ti rivolga ad un amministratore per bloccarlo secondo le politiche vigenti. [[w:JimboLa Wales|JimboR3R, Wales]]infatti, hanon detto:si applica ai vandalismi, bensì alle edit war. Nel caso dei vandalismi, infatti, il vandalo potrebbe venire bloccato ben prima del terzo rollback, e questo senza implicare il blocco della pagina oggetto di modifica.
:''The three revert rule is not generally considered to apply to reversions of simple vandalism by users who are waiting for a sysop to block the IP, of course. Generally, sysops need not revert a simple vandal even twice, because they should have been blocked already by that time. (However, sometimes sysops will validly choose not to block the IP out of a fear of affecting innocent users, and this can be valid as well.) But in some cases, it can happen that simple vandalism makes it through three reverts; the rule should not be interpreted to mean that such vandalism must be left standing by a user who has already reverted three times. Use this exception cautiously—it is better to just make sure the vandal is blocked when possible. And make sure it's simple vandalism by the usual definition.''
:''This exception does not apply to reversions of well-established users just because you consider their edits to be "vandalism." Simple vandalism is indisputable—don't confuse it with edits which you simply disagree with.''
