People changing back
Reverters are people or things that revert—return to a previous state or condition.
In legal contexts, reverters are provisions that cause property to return to the original owner if certain conditions aren't met: The deed contained reverters requiring the land be used for educational purposes.
In software development, reverters are users who undo changes, particularly on collaborative platforms like Wikipedia.
