Three revert rule: For users using 24-hour time
Line 121:
The [[WP:3RR|Three revert rule]] is a [[bright-line rule]] to draw the line somewhere. But making edits in a manner that just barely dodges this time frame does not make one immune from the consequences. An administrator still reserves the right to block an editor if it is obvious they are being disruptive with such constant reverts, and that no progress is being made toward a resolution. Unlike a guideline, Wikipedia enforces this rule.
 
If an editor were to make four reverts, say, three on January 26 at 9:45 AM (09:45), 1:35 PM (13:35), and 7:22 PM (19:22), and then one on January 27 at 9:46 AM (09:46), technically there have not been more than three reverts in a 24-hour period. But it is still a sign of edit warring.
