Q:

Should a rollback on a suggested edit remove reputation points?

I recently suggested an edit, and it was approved. I got the +2 on reputation. But since I made some mistake it was rolled back. But I still retained the +2 reputation.
Should I be having a -2 to my reputation since the suggested edit was not approved?
Here is the link to said post.

A:

Yes!
Rolling back is only used in the circumstance that the edit shouldn't have been approved. If it shouldn't have been approved, there shouldn't be a rep award. Additionally, it means that the approvers of it were wrong and a review ban should be considered (auto-flag raise?).
Yes, people might hunt for bad editors and do mass-rollbacks. Oh noes! That might improve post quality and catch robo-approvers!
No, using rollbacks as an attack is not going to happen because a) you need 2k to rollback b) bumping it to the homepage so other people notice is not a good idea, and c) downvoting is a more obvious option.

A:

I don't think so.  The 2 points is awarded based on review approvals, not on the edit maintaining its present state for all time.
