Most of my editing is creating new short articles that are far from complete (often one or two paragraphs), and I haven't had problems. I do tend to cite at least one source per article, though (the place I got my info from). Is that the main reason? Or am I just lucky? Or choosing unproblematic areas? Occasionally someone or a bot slaps on a "this article is a stub" footer, but that doesn't really bug me.

The one time I ran into trouble was a pretty edge case: my article on internet-meme rapper "Average Homeboy" was deleted, though it seems to now have been recreated. When I write articles on almost anything that isn't internet culture, there doesn't seem to be an army of evildoers looking to hassle me about them (say, on a CS theorem, castle in Greece, Prussian general, or a city hall in Minnesota).
