# Raising the reputation for approving edit suggestions

Just now I came across this question:

Proving that $\lim\limits_{x\to 0}\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=L$ implies $\lim\limits_{r\to 0}\frac {\int_R f(ry)h(y)\,dy}{\int_R g(ry)h(y)dy}=L$

If it has not been corrected since I saw it, it was unclear what was being asked. I was about to flag and downvote, when I saw people had answered. However, I could not make sense of the question. Then I saw the edits and I found that someone had edited the question and removed what was actually asked in the question and the Edit was approved!

Then I read that any user with 2k reputation can approve edits. In the light of such blunders, could we consider to increase this limit on who can approve edits?

• I believe the someone was the OP. I rolled back the edit. Maybe it was a mistake (trying to improve the title). – Andrés E. Caicedo Aug 21 '13 at 7:29
• @Vishal The asker is the owner of the post, so he/she can edit the post without it needing to pass through approval. Also, I think it's best to be hesitant to rollback an edit by the post owner (but in this case IMO it was appropriate). – Ataraxia Aug 21 '13 at 12:53
• Although the example could be better, the problem is still a valid one. However, I do not think the solution should be increasing the limit. I have seen users with so-much-rep-they-could-have-a-bath-in-it approve obviously incorrect edits. Perhaps imposing a minimum time for which you need to be looking at the page would be better? But I am not sure I would endorse that... – user1729 Aug 21 '13 at 19:56
