Here "reverters" (Reversores) is a user right equivalent to Rollbacker on English Wikipedia.[1] Extending the ability to block IPs and newly-registered accounts to a user group outside the small admin corps on Portuguese Wikipedia might induce some radical changes in the community dynamics. (There are only like 30-40 admins, and more than 100 rollbackers.) This topic sounds pretty interesting, not to mention important to inform community decision-making. -- Steven Walling https://wikimediafoundation.org/ 1. https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Tipos_de_usu%C3%A1rios#Reversores
