So,what we could do to protect our page on Wikipedia ? 

When the guy reverts your changes, is there some kind of comment/history type
thing to indicate why he's doing so?

Hopefully it's something simple like them just wanting references added to
support the change, and not something sinister like a competing project/org
trying to undermine things.

If the Viam Ferream person continues to be unreasonable, and there's no way
to communicate with them, it'll probably need taking up through the Wikipedia
Mediation process.  That seems to be documented here:

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Mediation

Does that help? :)

His comment for the revert was "restore link to inverted index" so I
think it was just a mistake and that he did not see the change from two
to three when he reverted.

The Wikipedia article looks good now.
