The special rights include reverting edits, which is pretty powerful when the person in question can insult you, but revert whatever you reply.
And I already edited the original comment, explaining that I misunderstood.
- howenterprisey 3y agoFYI anyone can revert any edit just by manually undoing changes; what's gated is the one-click button to do so ("rollback").
- rewmie 3y ago> The special rights include reverting edits (...) No, it really doesn't. Anyone can revert any edit, even if you haven't registered an account and/or you aren't logged in. The only thing that the reversion permission capability grants you is access to a button in the UI. Also, all you need to do to be granted access to that permission is a) have an account, b) ask for the permission, b) not have an abuse-riddled contribution history.
