3RR definition missing
Unless I'm just missing something, the 3RR section doesn't actually state what the rule is. It defines some terms, lists some exceptions but never asserts the rule itself. Stevelockewheaton (talk) 12:09, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- Do you see the pink box? It states "An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page—whether involving the same or different material—within a 24-hour period." ← That's the rule.- MrX 12:20, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks, I see that now (though not in a pink box) - I was just looking in the 3RR section of the page (which another page directly linked to). Maybe the definition should be moved to this section and referenced from further up in the page? --Stevelockewheaton (talk) 12:57, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- It's in the The three-revert rule section which is what WP:3RR links to. It seems like there may be a problem with your browser.- MrX 13:01, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- I see that it does indeed not appear on the mobile site and should be fixed. I assume that you're using a mobile device.- MrX 13:06, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, Safari on an iPhone. Thanks for checking and saving my sanity. Stevelockewheaton (talk) 13:09, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- I fixed it by changing from a divbox to CSS.- MrX 13:19, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
