The problem with this is firstly that the longer one leaves  
problematic data in the system the more chance there is that it will  
not be possible to do a clean reversion when one decides to do so -  
secondly that the errors will have ended up on the rendering and if  
the errors an obscene or highly visible then this is not good.

Do check the 'guidelines' on the vandalism page - are these reasonable  
as written? If not then lets update them. They include 'normal  
revert', 'speedy revert' and 'virtual ban' all of which seem to play a  
useful role.
