- Projects: Considering the YoY % decrease in revert rate and revert volumes, wikidata, enwiki, dewiki, ruwiki, zhwiki, are showing a big drop in revert rate for past few months.
- Drops in revert rate are correlated to (non-bot) Edit Increase for some projects: The drop in recent revert rate is correlated to (non-bot) edit increases only in wikidata and commons. For some other projects (enwiki, dewiki, ruwiki, zhwiki, frwiki, itwiki). the increases in (non-bot) edits are small over time, and the drop in reverts result in the drop in revert rate.
- Drops in revert rate/reverts are not correlated to number of users (new & returning) who make reverts: By looking at the number of users who make reverts overtime by tenue and by project, the numbers didn't change much over YoY.
