Thread:User:Peachey88/Sandbox/LQT/Reset after an edit?/reply (6)

The 30-edit limit definitely has some limitations, but all the others options seem to have problems, too. For example, imagine that you dramatically change the page in a few edits. Let's say that the tool junked the previous ratings because of a size and/or complexity change. Then let's say that someone reverted your changes, sending the article back to exactly what it was before. The old ratings would be entirely valid, despite having encountered dramatic changes in the meantime.

Also, evaluating the changes requires far more computing resources for the tool than simply counting up the number of revisions in the database, so even if it were possible to perform that with any sort of reasonable proficiency, I'm not sure that the devs would decide that it was worth the cost.
