Exactly. Vandalism will increase as project popularity will increase
and we are not ready to face that. You cannot rely on
experienced/enabled community members as it will happen more and more
often.
The main site provides all opportunities for easy vandalism (e.g. the
online editor) and the community has all opportunities to detect them
(e.g. view contributors edits) but nothing to revert the 145 RR8
changesets in an easy way - or at least give a try. We understand that
the revert might fail if someone changed the data again but
contributors who doesn't want to use perl scripts can accept this and
fix them manually.
