while normal editors can undo edits, it quickly turns into edit wars  if the 'attacker' is simply trying to cause harm. on top of that smaller wikis don't always have an admin avaliable to deal with the problem until much after the damage has taken place.

when does counter productive edits warrent protecting articles? to what extent would be acceptable?
