Statute of limitations for edit war reporting
Question: if I do not log into Wikipedia every day, is there anything that I can do about edit warriors? A bit ago, I reported Pizzigs to WP:AN/EW,[1] and Bbb23 marked it as no violation because it was very stale. I tried to ask him what the deadline was for reporting edit warring, but he deleted the question without answering,[2] so I thought that I would try asking here instead. Is there some sort of 24 h statute of limitations for edit warring to be taken seriously? It takes some time to prepare a report, and I do not log into Wikipedia every day, so I cannot always file a report within 24 h. Is there anything that I can do about chronic edit warring in these cases? — Freoh17:51, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
Please don't misrepresent what happened. I reverted you because you took it upon yourself to unarchive a discussion we had that had auto-archived, and the last person who had edited that discussion was me.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:36, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
How did I misrepresent what happened? I understand that you deleted the question because I unarchived the context for the question, but that does not change the fact that you deleted the question without answering. I would still appreciate an answer. — Freoh16:22, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
