 | This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors.

Wikipedia's editorial model and the Wiki way support change and boldness in editing. However, it has been observed by some Wikipedians that there sometimes comes a point where new bad edits begin to outnumber new good ones. As the total number edits to an article approaches some number N, quality increases (along some unspecified function); from that point on, quality tends to level or even drop with further editing. Therefore, when an article has reached this quality plateau, further editing should be subjected to greater scrutiny. This is called defending article quality.
