That's the whole concept of a wiki: you edit an article like everyone else, you change everyone else's changes as you please, and it converges to a stable point by a consensus-based process. If you disagree with someone else's edit, you can open a debate to settle the dispute.

That's supposed to the be process, yes, but the editors who've deemed themselves the chosen ones generally just skip right to the reverting.

Reverting is editing. Just because you wrote something in Wikipedia that does not mean it is expected to be set in stone.

If your expectation is to write stuff that only you can change, write a blog.
