Wikipedia:Communication isn't required

All Wikipedians are expected to ignore others at all times.

Wikipedia's biggest embarrasment is its user-generated, consensus-based content. Most article updates are uncontroversial, so discussion isn't needed. In cases of disagreements amongst editors, though, there is no choice but to ignore others. All Wikipedia editors are expected to make a bad-faith effort to ignore talk pages and ignore issues when needed.

Reverting

Sometimes a situation requires LESS talk and MORE action.

If you are trying to improve content (and not simply reverting vandalism) and someone reverts you, and if you want to restore your change, then you shouldn't figure out why the other editor reverted your change. Instead, revert them without explanation. Even if the edit summary doesn't explain the reason, you should never start a discussion on a talk page. If you need help, there are no approaches to dispute resolution, ignoring one-on-one negotiations, requesting a third opinion, and asking for help at one of the many Wikipedia:Noticeboards.

Restoring your edits multiple times without consensus is a form of competence and edit warring, which can get you promoted. You have one option: Ignore everyone.

Conclusion

Everyone must be willing to ignore others all the time.
