BRD

(Note: I am not commenting on the actual edits)

Your edit summary on Curvature,

Reverting should be done only when the content is inappropriate, otherwise develpment in wiki would hinder. If any problem in the edit, we re-edit it.Reverting is not the way suggested( by WP:BRD). What D.Lazard is doing is edit warring ,I am not!)

and your edit summary on Involute,

Dont give excuse for WP:BRD. Discussion must be done, but reverting should be done only if there is a huge problem in the edit.

are not technically correct.

WP:BRD is about the process where an editor may revert an edit if they do not consider it an improvement, after which the involved editors should discuss and not re-revert as you have done. So your re-revert could be considered aggressive and edit warring, whereas D.Lazard's revert is an acceptable challenge to your edit. Per BRD, the onus is on you to discuss after a revert, not re-revert.

Yes, BRD specifies that editors should re-edit rather than revert if they consider the result an improvement over the original state. But editors may revert if they do not consider the edits, even with refinements, an improvement of the article. Once the revert has already been done, discussion is the next step.

I hope that is helpful. The purpose of this comment is just to clarify what BRD actually means. — MarkH21 (talk) 15:10, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I understand, but the editor D.Lazard did not specify what problem he had with the edit. No edit should be reverted just because it is too bold.Lichinsol (talk) 15:15, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but that is why you should then move to the talk page to discuss what the problems may be. — MarkH21 (talk) 15:17, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I wont raise a discussion. A discussion should be raised by the one who has a problem with the edit, and should not revert it if it does not have problems. "Making an edit should not be the reason for a revert, also WP:BRD too should not be the reason", is what is clearly written in WP:BRDLichinsol (talk) 15:20, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
