The editor thanked me for one of my comment on their talk page, so they are clearly aware of the discussion but refuse to take part in it, instead going back and reinstating the edits, even another editor reverted them. They are also modifying every instance of the word "Prequel" to "Prologue", which apparently includes source URLs and titles with this edit. -- Alex^TW 03:56, 25 June 2017 (UTC)

Comments:
Three editors (including myself) have reverted NANGA's dubious POV additions and spam ("has gained tremendous life wisdom from his career successes and losses which he now shares in his work as a Motivational Speaker and Entrepreneur", "a pivotal milestone in Hayes’ career as a triple life champion (Hollywood actor, professional boxer and motivational speaker)." In previous versions of the article he was a nearly Olympic but missed it because of injury boxer (completely unverifiable). All evidence points to editors using Wikipedia to promote this person (and using IMDb and so on to get "good" references for their promo talk), and not caring one bit about Wikipedia rules and purposes. Block, revert, page protect is the best solution here. Fram (talk) 10:10, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Fram I am updating your report by notifying you as well that we had already edited the page again according your instructions by deleting the date of birth which we were told was falsified by Pinkbeast and we have also simplified the page by delete some to the previously updated content. We have been told our feedback to your instructions was "Junk" it seems like this vocabulary is not considered waring by Wikipedia. At this point we are only concerned about meeting the guidelines with our updated page. Once again let us know if the new changes are acceptable or not. Respectfully!

Comments:

This is an ongoing, slow edit war with the user refusing to WP:LISTEN to other editors and achieve any form of WP:CON for major content changes. I left a 3RR warning on the user's talk page which was blanked. The user has displayed exactly the same behaviour on articles surrounding religion in a given nation-state in the past, and has been blocked for edit warring, but it doesn't seem that they've learnt anything and keep reverting multiple editors. Extended discussion with other editors can be found on the article's talk page here. Iryna Harpy (talk) 20:31, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

You keep reverting my changes without logical argomentations in favour of Eurispes data (the old one there were on the page) that, as I explained in the talk page with four sourced argomentations, is less reliable than Doxa data I introduced. You are moved by your religious convintions so you try to remove all data that you don't like without logical explanations. This is not the first time you make these edit wars, I will give you a list of pages where you made edit wars for the same motivations: Religion in Ukraine, Religion in Belgium, Religion in Russia and now also Religion in Italy. It is not a mature or adaptive behavior to make an edit war and ten report a person just because they do not think like you.FrankCesco26 (talk) 09:45, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

I have examined this situation, read all the recent discussion at Talk:Religion in Italy and am convinced that a block is warranted. Blocked for one week. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:45, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

Comments:

I've looked at Koala15's talk page, and it's clear that this is not the only case of disruptive editing. This particular editor is non-responsive to attempts to talk and has had several complaints lodged against them.

The other changes are incorrect. Adam Saunders is the first listed producer, not Britton Rizzio. Additionally, the character name changed is DAWKINS, not HAWKINS as Koala15 has edited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emily Alexander (talk • contribs)

(Non-administrator comment) Please see also the ongoing discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Koala15. General Ization ^Talk 20:03, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Per my comment at User talk:Emily Alexander, I'm concerned that the filer of this report, Emily Alexander, may also be operating the User:SaraCrewe account and might be associated with Footprint Features, the production company which is credited for Shimmer Lake. (Sara created the Footprint Features draft). Both Emily and Sara have edited Shimmer Lake which is a no-no, and socks should not file 3RR reports. COI editing may be a concern as well as usage of multiple accounts. I hope that Emily will clarify. EdJohnston (talk) 20:46, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Declined – Possible usage of multiple accounts and COI editing by the filer. I am hoping that the problem is settled by the conversation at User talk:Emily Alexander. EdJohnston (talk) 17:50, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

Comments:
I can see two editors reverting each others' edits. I really have no idea what to do about it or even what the correct outcome should be, but it seems rather unproductive. Perhaps a wiki-admin can step in to try to resolve this ?

From the discussion at Talk:Birmingham Airport it appears that User:Futurepilot1999 disagrees with the consensus found at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Airports#Seasonal flights for what constitutes a seasonal flight. This does put him at risk of a block for edit warring. If there truly is a consensus you shouldn't keep reverting against what it requires. EdJohnston (talk) 21:06, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

EdJohnston Can I just put my point across here? There is no real "consensus" been reached. On the talk page you refer too, the only person agreeing with this "policy" on seasonal flights is SempreVolando who is on the other side of this argument. Is it my word versus his. No one else is backing him up! On the talk page only he has suggested this idea and he has admitted himself that this has flaws. He has even suggest changing this. But this is by no means the consensus. They all agree if the break is less than a month (4 weeks) then it's year round but any more is seasonal. These Jet2 flights in question stop for over 5 weeks. Futurepilot1999 (talk) 21:12, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Futurepilot1999, you can avoid a block if you agree to make no more edits on this article without first getting a talk page consensus. EdJohnston (talk) 21:20, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

If I blocked, it would only be fair to block both of you are you are both edit warring. User:SempreVolando: This is not vandalism and is not exempt from WP:3RR. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:48, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

I suggest that this report could be closed with warnings to both Futurepilot1999 and SempreVolando. In particular, Futurepilot should be aware that if he reverts against the current project definition of seasonal flight (on any articles) he may be blocked, unless he first gets a talk page consensus. EdJohnston (talk) 17:58, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

• Result: User:Futurepilot1999 and User:SempreVolando are both warned per my proposal above. EdJohnston (talk) 14:50, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

I restore it and subsequently add brackets to show that it was added later to appease their concerns (Godsy revert #1). They revert it again (Legacypac revert #2). I restore it again (Godsy revert #2). They revert it again (Legacypac revert #3). I restore it with brackets and a timestamp and subsequently add edit conflict to appease their concerns (Godsy revert #3). Legacypac reverts it again (Legacypac revert #4). Page history (in case I erred with the diffs) Legacypac's first 3 reverts were within 24 hours, the fourth was ~2 days later. They are substantially editing my comment which is prohibited per WP:TPOC. I've made every effort to address their concerns and follow WP:REDACT. My comment should be restored, but I don't feel it would be appropriate for me to do so for a fourth time. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 23:38, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

Comments:
There is no attempt from Godsy to discuss the matter before he filed this issue. Legacypack did try to stop the misery. So prior edit war warnings issued to Legacy pack. Godsy claims as warning that Legacypac was blocked for editwarring "mid 2016". He forgot to mention that he himself was blocked for hounding May 2017. The Banner talk 23:53, 28 June 2017 (UTC) Addition 00:00, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

The community did not agree with that unilateral, hasty, what I still maintain was bad, block I received due to what I believe were false allegations made at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive957#Godsy back to Wikihounding - how to stop it? (the block was very early in that discussion). The community consensus based outcome of that discussion was a boomerang topic ban of the original poster (i.e. Legacypac). — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 00:16, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

• Is there really no way the two of you could just manage to avoid colliding, or at least avoid escalating things which should be simple into noticeboard drama? The only immediate question in my mind is whether this is more or less WP:LAME than fighting over who is allowed to close an uncontroversial and unopposed WP:G2 AfD (where you both supported deletion) after it had been deleted. (Non-administrator comment) Murph9000 (talk) 23:57, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
• Update: my comment has been restored by another user. That remedies my primary concern. Consider this withdrawn unless it is reverted again; though I think at the very least Legacypac deserves a warning, I have no interest in this dragging on here. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 00:43, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

Diffs of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page

1. Two months ago, i talked on page about this without any reply
2. And after that, me and one more user tried to talk again, but its pointless i am afraid.

Comments:

After two blocks for the edit warring and disruptive editing, user is reverting on borderline of 3RR again, ignoring obvious guidelines and if comment anything on talk, not talking about the edits he make, but making accusations, threatening, having bad faith, using Wikipedia as propaganda tool in ARBMAC area, and again, WP:NOTHERE. Ąnαșταη (ταlκ) 23:26, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

The dispute was solved. Some policies like WP:NOGALLERIES are confusing. It says galleries are usually not allowed but there are exceptions. Moreover socks from Serbia have targeted my edits since a long time and I am waiting for an administrator to block the latest sock that repeatedly reverted me in several articles such as Attack on Prekaz. Anastan aims to impose their views on Wikipedia articles. I can not find an agreement with an editor who reverts me all the time and refuses to catch the point. The "arguments" of this editor in an usual content dispute are "Ktrimi991 is a POV pusher", "Ktrimi991 uses Wikipedia as propaganda tool" and so on. Nonetheless I admire this editor for their capabilities to transform the truth as they need as they did above with their accusations. My two blocks were a consequence of my interactions with Anastan. I have been reported three times in the past in various noticeboards and always the reporter Anastan. Anastan's behaviour, repetitive false accusations everywhere they interact with me and endless reverts make a civil and fruitful discussion impossible. See on the talk of Attack in Prekaz their last accuisations. One administrator suggested me to ask for an interaction ban with this but I was busy and actually will be for some time. The discussion there I wait to be long but I will make a sacrifice and ask for an interaction ban immediately. After that I don't expect to see my self in such a circus again. Ktrimi991 (talk) 06:35, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

News:Anastan is suspected to be a sock together with Jaehen4555 who was the last editor I reverted on Attack of Prekaz. Ktrimi991 (talk) 16:08, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

More news: Anastan was of course unrelated to sock, and Ktrimi991 was misrepresenting his edit war in order to create false picture in report. --Ąnαșταη (ταlκ) 15:04, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

• Admin comment @Pigsonthewing: You are in clear violation of 3RR, and I would be completely justified in blocking. After reading your post here, I am still tempted to do so because though you appear to have admitted that you are edit-warring, the article still sits at your version, ie you are still profiting from that edit-warring. Therefore, I am going to ask you to self-revert; and if you do not, I think any passing admin will be justified in blocking you. Since your last edit-warring block was for 48 hours, I think a duration longer than that is what we are looking at. Vanamonde (talk) 18:20, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
• Alright, this is a bit unorthodox, but bear with me. Pigsonthewing has violated 3RR, and has ignored both a request here and on their talk to self-revert. However, I believe a block at this point would be punitive, as they have (sort of) acknowledged their edit-warring, and moved elsewhere. I have therefore reverted them and full-protected the page; if they have issues with it, they need to obtain consensus on the talk page, as they should have done in the first place. If any other passing admin finds this to be a problem and wishes to block, they should feel free to do so and/or to revert me without first consulting me. Vanamonde (talk) 19:11, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

Revert number 4 appears to be self-revert (see this edit summary), and hence wouldn't count in WP:3RR.VR _talk 13:49, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

• It takes two to edit war, and I'd like to note that @Ms Sarah Welch: has been edit-warring with Joinakeli. She made 4 reverts yesterday: [67], [68], [69], [70]. The first two were a reversion of my edits, and the second two were a reversion of Jionakeli's edits.VR _talk 13:49, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

• Vice regent: You misunderstand edit warring! It involves "reverts", it does not mean normal editing, and it does not mean first change such as this (your second link). Even the first link you give is not an undo, but a normal edit that was followed by further revisions to remove non-RS and replaced with scholarly sources. So, I was at 2RR in 24 hours, and your allegations are false. Similarly, Capitals00's revert and report is fine! Since this is a contentious topic, both Jionakeli and you need to stop restore/ reverts/ changing titles, for which you have been warned by an admin. The edit warring by Jionakeli has indeed been troubling, as noted in the edit summary by an admin here. I suggest no action against anyone, at this point, since a generous interpretation of circumstances and facts (self revert by Jionakeli) suggest 3RR+ hasn't happened. Jionakeli and you need to give patience a chance, let the consensus emerge with the efforts of many other editors active on the article's talk page. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 14:19, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

What you have made are indeed reverts.

In your first revert[71] you removed the sentence "The violence has rioting, lynching, assault, property damage and murder", which I had added earlier. (Note: you didn't revert my edit fully, but rather partially)

In your second revert[72] you removed the entire section on "Contemporary "cow protection" groups" which I had added earlier. (Note: again you didn't revert my edit fully, but only partially, by leaving in other material I had added).

You've already acknowledged that your latter two reverts that I mention were indeed reverts.

I also don't recommend any action against anyone. This is why I myself didn't file a 3RR report.VR _talk 14:48, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

• I also note that the reporter, User:Capitals00, has also made a revert on the page[73], but has made absolutely no attempt to discuss this issue on the talk page. Even though Ms Sarah Welch, Jionakeli and myself and others have made attempts to resolve this issue on the talk page. When making a 3RR report, it says: "You've tried to resolve this edit war on the article talk page, haven't you?...If all you've done is reverted-without-talk, you may find yourself facing a block too." VR _talk 13:57, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

I agree with both MSW and VR and this report was made in bad faith by Capitals00. This[74] is false. Jionakeli (talk) 15:24, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

Vice regent: this is a new article. You added undue, poorly sourced draft content from your sandbox which Kautilya3 and others cautioned you about many days ago. Partial first time edits to such problematic draft merge or new articles are not reverts. 3RR isn't meant to stonewall everyone from editing wikipedia articles, or from improving content by adding scholarly sources. Your attacks on Capitals00 are inappropriate. 3RR guidelines require an effort, any effort, to resolve the dispute on the talk page, not necessarily one's own. So, Capitals00 report was not a bad faith report. There is a real concern with Jionakeli's editing behavior, per Vanamonde's edit summary. It took Jionakeli a long while to self revert, FWIW. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 15:55, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

I disagree. Capitals00's revert doesn't fall under WP:3RRNO. Vice regent's draft falls under content dispute if you think it was undue, poorly sourced. The guideline "You've tried to resolve this edit war on the article talk page, haven't you?...If all you've done is reverted-without-talk, you may find yourself facing a block too." still applies. Regarding Vanamonde93's comment on me, please see the next one[75]. Jionakeli (talk) 16:50, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

• @Capitals00: Please consider withdrawing this case. The edit warring by Jionakeli, and earlier by Vice regent in the same new contentious article (1, 2, 3, 4) is no longer an issue. It is also contestable given the self-revert (see admin Vanamonde93's edit comment linked above). It shows constructive intent at least in the past, responsiveness, and where the article moved on shortly after your filing this case. Of course this is just a suggestion, but if you decide otherwise I respect your feelings. This suggestion does not prejudice your ability or right to bring future 3RR cases against any editors mentioned above or others. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 12:06, 30 June 2017 (UTC)

Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 05:41, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi everybody. This is my first time being reported for 3RR. Haven't had this experience before, so this is all-new to me. I'm guessing this is where I place my comments. I'd like to point out that the "reversion" listed at the bottom is actually a move of the information that was then reverted by Daniel Cardenas. So in my defense, I'd like to state this: Upon the information getting added only in the lead, I moved it to the article to follow Wikipedia's WP:LEAD guideline about "Apart from basic facts, significant information should not appear in the lead if it is not covered in the remainder of the article". Daniel reverted. I reverted to add the information back in the article and reworded it, but Daniel re-added the info in the lead, effectively another reversion. There were some moments of back-and-forth edits happening. From my point of view, the "stable" version of the page was before the "most popular operating system" text was added. I know it's not policy, but WP:BRD comes to mind. I explained my thinking and reasons in my edit summaries, and also on the talk page, but the opposing user continued to add the information in the lead. I'm not really sure I'm the one who broke the 3RR rule here. If it is, then I have miscounted or misunderstood. There are things I would do differently had this situation happened over again, but here we are. LocalNet (talk) 06:02, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

LocalNet is correct, I do see where I made a mistake and reverted his edit to add content to the article. Sorry my bad, I'll be more careful in the future. I can see how that would raise anger or frustration. You can disregard this 3rr violation. Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 08:34, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk page discussion about the voting history table format in question

Comments:

Multiple editors have discussed this on the article's talk page about the voting history table of the article. Before I was involved five registered editors were discussing the issue with 4 in favor of the one column layout while one just advised it needs more than two editors to make a consensus. After I placed my thoughts on the talk page @Musicalorange6: made the first of two replies on the talk page essentially stating since it wasn't unanimous then the two column format of the table must be used (the one in all of the user's reverts to the article.) As of this notice there is 5 registered editors for the one column format, 1 registered editor (Musicalorange6) for the two column format and 1 IP in favor two column format however Musicalorange6 insists on reverting it back to the two column format every time.♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 07:13, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

I never said that "since it wasn't unanimous we needed two columns but I did say that we need to continue discussion instead of just ending it because the majority wanted one column. I also said that you could just add a note. If you look at the talk page, I was ready to cooperate. You reverted all of my edits as well. I could do the same to you or User:VietPride10 for doing the exact same thing. Thanks for lying to administrators about me.

Peace Out. hugs and kisses Musicalorange6 (talk) 07:18, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

The discussion on the talk page isn't closed and it is still open. I apologize for putting that quote in my comment above but essentially you have said the definition of consensus is "unanimous" in your second reply and in your first one you did state "Search up what consensus means because I disagree" while you kept reverting the table multiple times. I'm happy to go along with what the outcome of the discussion will be even if it isn't the option I think is best. The thing is and the reason I reported this to the admins is simply instead of discussing it on the talk page you kept reverting multiple editors because you didn't agree with the way the table was formatted. You also didn't partake in the discussion until after I left my comments and pinged you in them. You also threatened other editors with this very same thing in your edit summaries. That is why I have reported you to the admins and your edits and actions speak for themselves. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 09:07, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Clear 1-RR violation from an experienced user who knows better. Erlbaeko (talk) 07:51, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Comments:
@Erlbaeko: I'm surprised that you'd want to call attention to this article given that you've recently violated the editing restriction on that article twice [95] [96] and told another editor "you can add it or re-add it as many times you like" recently. VQuakr (talk) 08:25, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

You are taking that out of context. Another dishonest comment from you. And no, I did not "violated the editing restriction on that article twice". Not once either. Erlbaeko (talk) 08:32, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Both of those reverts violated the requirement that "All editors must obtain consensus on the talk page of this article before reinstating any edits that have been challenged (via reversion). If in doubt, don't make the edit.". I provided the diff so anyone can check the context of the talk page edit. VQuakr (talk) 08:38, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

I was improving the article based on policy, not reverting edits because I didn't like them. I took out a primary source and removed a heading for two sentences that gave undue weight. The second edit was modified based on feedback. I'm trying to get consensus, not get my version. - Mnnlaxer | talk | stalk 01:14, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Sure, I broke the 1RR-rule once two years ago. Big deal. Did you notice that the user I reverted back then, blanked a longstandig section against the consensus on talk? Erlbaeko (talk) 08:33, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

There is no need to investigate something from two years ago. Let's just focus on the present report. Dr. K. 08:38, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

• Comment: This edit-warring violates the GS the article is under (editor notified of that on his talk page; first notice was in 2015: [97], [98]). It also violates the additional sanction applied to the article by NeilN (who is on vacation at present): "Consensus required: All editors must obtain consensus on the talk page of this article before reinstating any edits that have been challenged (via reversion). If in doubt, don't make the edit." (viewable in the edit window: [99]) Editor had been reminded of that multiple times: [100], [101], [102]. As Volunteer Marek notes in his edit summary removing the tag the user placed [103], the tag (and edit-warring to retain it) seems to be the user's unilateral reprisal for not getting his way in the RfC at the top of the talk page: [104]. -- Softlavender (talk) 08:28, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
• Please note that the reported account has taken to edi-warring on my talkpage, harassing me and threatening me that he will warn me in the future as retaliation: I am not planning to come here often. Maybe I drop you a warning or something. Bye. . That's WP:BATTLE crossing-over to trolling. Dr. K. 09:21, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

"edi-warring" on your talkpage? Harrassing? Threatening? Battle? Trolling? Give me a break. I was correcting a typo. Erlbaeko (talk) 09:28, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

This is harassing/battleground/trolling: [105], [106], and this is edit-warring: [107]. None of it was "correcting a typo". Softlavender (talk) 09:53, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

(edit conflict) @Erlbaeko: Your crude warning: I am not planning to come here often. Maybe I drop you a warning or something. Bye. speaks for itself. Your tit-for-tat DS warning to Softlavender, after she gave you a DS warning, is typical WP:BATTLE behaviour. To add insult to injury, your logging of the warning you gave her is pure WP:GAME, although pretty disingenuous and sloppy. Dr. K. 10:03, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

the sources quoted in the article. Flavius1 (talk) 15:48, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

@Flavius1: Obvious vandalism (IMO) constitutes adding uncivil language, unreferenced information and gibberish. This is a content dispute that (as I stated on your talkpage) you must take other reasonable steps to address (such as on the talk page, asking for WP:RFPP, etc.) Breaking 3RR even for vandalism is discouraged and these methods should be used otherwise. Nicnote^{say hello!}_contribs 15:44, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

@Nicnote: Sorry, but it's a usual vandalism when deleting verified information. This was earlier in another article I wrote (look [123]).And the article was then defended and I also abolished vandalism Flavius1 (talk) 15:48, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

It looks like the edit summary here expresses legitimate concerns. I don't believe the removal was vandalism and this is certainly edit warring over content without a talk page discussion. However, I don't think action is needed so long as Flavius1 and the IP user both agree to take the matter to the article's talk page, and for both of them to cease reverting one another until a consensus is reached. Also, the edit summary in the revert here is not acceptable. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 16:03, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Comments:

The editor is mass-deleting content to apparently promote the articles to featured list status, which is far more disruptive to the article than they are helpful, as the content that they are deleting ha been added by dozens of contributors. The editor has no solid reasoning, policy or guideline that supports the deletion of content simply to get the article to a different status, based only on the examples provided by other articles. After the edit-warring notification, the editor removed the warning and discussion, before I restored only the discussion part of my previous edit, and a discussion ensued. At the very same time, while the discussion was still ongoing, they reverted ‎Brojam who re-added the content back int the article (the fifth revert in the list of diffs). -- Alex^TW 18:43, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

As soon as I filed this report and notified the editor, they then completely removed the discussion. -- Alex^TW 18:47, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

It should be noted that this editor has continuously reverted me since my first day of fixing these articles. I have worked on this entire topic, day and night to make the articles what they are right now (Obviously I don't own them but accusing me of messing them is an insult to my hard work). I have expanded the parent article Quantico (TV series) by many folds, its main character Alex Parrish article and its List of Quantico episodes article. My reasons for removing those content was not for what this guy/girl suggests. I am working on these season article to expand and then promote them to Featured content, just see the history. I was just following the criteria for how these season based articles on the lines of 30 Rock (season 1), The Office (U.S. season 1) and many others. I told this person that I was following this and will soon write the Crew section or Production section explaining the writers and directors involved but he kept on reverting me. What I was saying that what is the point of having the repeated texts like casting, development and other section when it is already present in the parent article? As it was clear that I was following how other season wise article are written here. I had no other agenda like disruptive editing as It is evident by my efforts of expanding these articles. If they are so responsible what don't they write these articles themselves? It's a shame that wikipedia is becoming a messy place because of these people, who instead of teaching users what to do are busy bashing them at ANI. This is why many people have left this place.

It should be noted that this person is trying to misinterpret things. I reverted after he reverted me. It should be me who should be reporting this person. This person was about to revert me a third time. I don't know what his problem is. He is obsessed with tv articles and acts like they belong to them.Krish | Talk 19:00, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

• NOTE: This is what I wanted to do by removing the text and re-writing it. As a matter of fact, after removing it I was re-writing it simultaneously while I was discussing with that editor in another window. It took time because I had to write here. I didn't mean to cause any disruptive editing but I wanted to make the article in a good shape and with tight prose. That's it.Krish | Talk 21:43, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Comments:

This is a rather strange situation. I have made some edits to NPAPI, which improved it, making the orthography of "plugin" consistent throughout, removing a redundant phrase, and making a sentence grammatically better. One of the users I am reporting undid my initial edit, which removed "plugin" in favour of "browser extension", so I redid it, removing "browser extension" in favour of "plugin". Several days later, the other editor undid my edits, with a personal attack: Reverted misguided edit-warrior. Noticing that today, I reinstated my edit, and further improved the article. The same user undid the edit again, and again did not explain why. I made the change again, and the second user undid it with a false claim that it introduced a grammatical error. The first user made another unexplained revert, absurdly claiming "gross deterioration" and making another personal attack against me.

I left both users messages on their talk pages; both users deleted them without responding. Neither user responded sensibly to my article talk page post (they finally responded somewhat sensibly while I was writing this). So, I have two users clearly collaborating to gang up against me and refusing to communicate sensibly. My edits were entirely good and obviously improved the article. And yet these two are undoing them and attacking me. Neither has offered any reason for this. So, I seek help here. 128.40.1.2 (talk) 15:58, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Comment by FleetCommand (Speak your mind!)

Hello. I must say see this ANEW case is like a kick in the nuts. Why? Codename Lisa and I made a good-faith effort to restart the discussion in the talk page, offering him compromise. I was even going to apologize to him for an instance of saying rough words to him. Yet, his last message in the talk page reads:

You have both deleted my posts from your talk pages, made personal attacks against me, and refused to provide any reason for undoing my edits.

But how true is this comment? In all the honesty, this person has been exclusively engaged in non-collegial behavior. Exclusively. And he has violated WP:3RR today. ([140], [141], [142], [143].) For my part, I am sorry that was repulsed by his behavior and didn't start a dispute resolution regardless. But in all the fairness, this person has no interest in discussion either.

Comment by Codename Lisa (talk · contribs)

Hello, everyone.

Fleet Command summed it up quite well. 128.40.1.2 makes way too many claims of personal attacks than is true and he shown no interest in proper discussion. For example, he has started this ANEW case 8 minutes after being informed that we are interested in a discussion and offering compromises. The first alleged "personal attack" does not comment on him at all: "Rv. content removal without explanation." Also, the second alleged "personal attack" actually does not comment on him at all: "Rv. introduction of grammatical error (addition of "the" to plural noun) and unexplained removal of a piece of text." He, on the other hand, does not hold back personal attacks, having twice called me vandal. In a way, he expects us to treat him like a king, instead of a peer and college.

In lieu of the facts that:

1. We were ready to discuss, compromise and even apologize
2. He was not
3. He violated 3RR today

I request that FleetCommand and I be given another chance.

• Result: Filing IP warned. The IP is the only one to break 3RR. The others did not so. It isn't logical to rush to AN3 when you yourself are already in violation. More reverts from any party might lead to a block. But realistically, all parties seem to know where the talk page is and the IP does appear to have some knowledge of the topic. Codename Lisa's claim that "Content removal without explanation is vandalism" is not found in our policy. EdJohnston (talk) 16:51, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

So their repeated personal attacks which they have stood by, unexplained reverts, and deletion of my attempts to communicate do not merit a warning. I see. 128.40.1.2 (talk) 18:28, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

I'm starting to think that a block of the filer would have been the right closure after all. This was an unnecessary war and it looks to me that the IP was the prime mover. On the talk page, there is a hint that this is a flareup of an ongoing problem, though no report of that was made here. EdJohnston (talk) 20:23, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

I described the whole history of the problem here. I listed all the reverts made by these two users, starting on 7 June. So why would you say "no report of [an ongoing problem] was made here"? You seem happy with the conduct of people who undid edits without any explanation and made a number of personal attacks while doing so. And now you think I should be blocked for reporting such conduct? Amazing. 128.40.1.2 (talk) 09:42, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

Also, it seems to me the prime mover would be the person who reverted a good edit six days after it was made saying only Reverted misguided edit-warrior. That certainly was unnecessary and they haven't given any explanation of why the reverted with a personal attack. But it seems you endorse their behaviour. 128.40.1.2 (talk) 09:46, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

And also, it has emerged that one of the users attacked me because they have their own definition of vandalism which is entirely contradicted by the actual policy: Of course, I argue that we do treat content removal by IP editor without an edit summary as vandalism and treat that IP editor with various messaging templates. That's de facto. Length of the remove content does not seem to be an issue either. One can read WP:NOTVAND to see how every part of that is false. 128.40.1.2 (talk) 09:54, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

Repeatedly inserting the same seriously misleading content over the reversions of myself and various other editors. It's a slow edit war, but a war nome the less.

This user is constantly trying to push his POV about C. Ronaldo. Repeatedly asked him to join the discussion, but refuses to participate in the debate.Max Eisenhardt (talk) 15:19, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

No edit war here

The user, User:Max Eisenhardt apparently a new one is the one who is trying to push his POV & even changing the statement often considered "the best" in the world to often considered "one of the best", when there are more than a dozen distinct citations to claim the same. And moreover I'm more that active in the discussion as well as in my talk page & has given him valid explanations regarding keeping WP:IMPARTIAL & instead of addressing the same, keeps on reverting it. Shady59 (talk) 15:15, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

There is in fact an edit war, and just now you reverted the page again. Stop doing this before reaching a consensus on the talk page. Max Eisenhardt (talk) 15:19, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

Who started the edit war in the first place? It was as per my original statement earlier once the lead was altered & citations added, before some random offender started changing it. So if at all there is an edit war, the reason would be you. Shady59 (talk) 15:30, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

Reason

I'm saying keeping WP:IMPARTIAL to similar article claim. In a similar article of Lionel Messi, you can only find 3 or 4 citations from distinct sources/personnels that claim Messi to be the greatest. Rest all just discussions. And in one of those discussions given as citation, 5 out of 6 experts say Messi is not the greatest. But the page still states "regarded by many as the greatest". It's exactly the same case with the Cristiano Ronaldo page. So keeping WP:IMPARTIAL means, either keep the statement in both the pages as "regarded by many" or keep the statement in both the pages as "regarded by some". Stating "many" in one page & "some" in the other page, when both the pages have similar claims, is not acceptable. Shady59 (talk) 15:30, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

Both editors blocked - 24 hours. The two parties have been waging a multi-day edit war. One of them opened a WP:RFC on June 29 to settle this question, but neither one is waiting for it to finish. EdJohnston (talk) 15:58, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

Also violates WP:TPO. — Gamall Wednesday Ida (t · c) 12:35, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

Blocked - 48 hours. The user seems to be engaged in linkspam across multiple articles. For more details see this section of WT:WPM (permalink). Meanwhile User:MelanieN has put 48 hours of semiprotection on WT:WPM, which should help for the moment. The IP was resisting the unfriendly titling of the section at WT:WPM which used the phrase 'Aggressive spamming.' User:David Eppstein and User:Joel B. Lewis have been trying to explain our policies to the editor. In my own opinion, a better section title would be 'Excessive promotion of a particular Arxiv posting, "Decision streams" since section headers should try to be calm even while giving a clear explanation of the perceived problem. EdJohnston (talk) 01:57, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

There's more at my talk ((permalink), where the person or people pushing this preprint claim to be "employees of several laboratories" doing so at the "request of professor" (i.e. meatpuppets rather than sockpuppets). —David Eppstein (talk) 02:07, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

I was brought to the article by a request at WP:RFPP. I hesitated between an edit-warring block and protection, but decided on protection because there was no edit-warring warning on the user's talk page. That would normally be the first step - a warning, followed by a block if they don't heed the warning. Plus I saw that the user's conduct was already under examination here. --MelanieN (talk) 03:19, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

• Comment - I have left Comefrombeyond a standard warning, which was never done. Both could probably do well with a short block for edit warring, but... personally it would probably just be easier to protect the wrong version™ and be done with it. TimothyJosephWood 14:19, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

In his original post, the IP titled this entry as "Edit war, 3-revert rule, censorship attempts at IOTA distributed ledger article". I'm leaving a ping for User:Winstonxyz123 since they created this article on 6 July. EdJohnston (talk) 14:29, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Can this version https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=IOTA_(Distributed_Ledger_Technology)&oldid=789290432 be set to protected? Comefrombeyond does not deny existence of Coordinator, it is referred to in cited sources, and I added more sources in the "iota transperancy compendium", and also added text that its meant to be temporary. It doesnt matter if they claim the network can function without it, it is how it is, Coordinator is active even if temporary. That looks centralized to me. Many such systems exist, distributed network yet centralized. It is also worrisome that the Criticism page is removed. Thank you and have a nice day. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.78.237.194 (talk) 14:40, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Page protected - 3 days, and rolling back to a version before the edit war started, since I see a possible BLP violation in the latest version. See WP:DR for some options you can take to resolve this. EdJohnston (talk) 14:44, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

To be honest, I find the solution distasteful. Now the article is frozen, with wrong information, information essential for anyone reading the article to understand how IOTA functions, is the Coordinator role, and is now not mentioned. Thanks to successful vandalism by IOTAs creator. Very disappointed in Wikipedia. I dont have the time to sit around here and fight over this page. Now when wikipedia asks for donations next year, Im out, it was a good 10 years, but this is surprisingly bad content and policy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.78.237.194 (talk) 14:54, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

DraKyry has had several warnings, from several users - in addition to myself, also User:General Ization and User:Drmies. They have no intention of listening.

The account itself is suspicious. It showed up in 2010, made a couple edits, then lay dormant until just now. Given the comments and the personal attacks in edit summaries [154], the user is clearly WP:NOTHERE. This account should be indeffed until it clarifies it intends to follow the rules.

• Okay, so I've already explained my position in: my talk page, the CNN controversy talk page, and the edits summaries I provided with each of my edits. I am kinda tired of arguing about this, so here are just two screenshots of just some of the edits I've reverted: http://imgur.com/a/auaEa & http://imgur.com/a/LCyyb . Also, notice the nickname of the guy I was reverting, and compare that to the nickname of the guy who made this post. Thank you. P.S. Here's the history section of the page we were arguing about: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=CNN_blackmail_controversy&action=history . I believe that the first thing you should do is look at this page. Also, I was not going to say this, but since my counterpart claimed that my account is 'suspicious', because it was created in 2010, I advise you to visit my counterpart's talk page (User talk:Volunteer Marek). He literally has dozens (I am not even joking - dozens) of warning about starting edits wars on Trump-related articles. I looked at just some of his edits of said articles - they are mostly disruptive editing/vandalism (just look at those edits!). Now, I withdraw from this discussion - whatever decision you make, I don't think that spending 2 hours of arguing with an obviously politically motivated editor to make a correction that costed me 5 minutes of my time is worth it. My faith in Wikipedia is destroyed, thank you. --DraKyry (talk) 04:33, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

  I'm not sure if you realize this, but your first image pretty much confirms that not only are you edit warring, but you have violated WP:3RR (I've counted 5 reverts in that image alone). Technically, the image may also confirm that Marek is also edit warring, but not to the extent that you are. SkyWarrior 04:25, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

  My point is this (and this will be my last reply in this thread, and omly because I haven't clarified this in the main post) The 3RR rule is important, but if someone is obviously engaged in vandalism (see the screenshots), and everyone else is just ignoring it (because, I assume, the anti-trump stance everyone was expressing in the discussion section of the page) - breaking this rule was the least I could do. Be bold, remember? --DraKyry (talk) 04:36, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

  As I have stated before, Marek's edits are not vandalism, not even close (see WP:VANDNOT). Furthermore, WP:BOLD does not give you an excuse to violate WP:3RR (in fact, it implies you do the exact opposite of that). SkyWarrior 04:40, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

DraKyry's continuing edit-warring and confusing edit summaries suggest this is more than just a content issue: It's jsut ridiculous. You removed a whole section on the claim that one of the sources the sections cited 'barely mentions seens'. First, it's a matter of opinion, second, there are 2 more sources, what about them? And yet you reinstate the buzzfeed edit. was for a revert ([163]) that had nothing to do with Buzzfeed. There were also two sources total, one of which was primary, and the other wasn't substantially about CNN. You remove opinions of senators and public figures and replace them with opinions of alt-right journalists. Seems like you are pushing the narrative that only the alt-right denounced CNN's actions. Nice. Also, you replaced 'Kaczynski' stated with clarifie[164] What's this mean? I don't know. This was for an edit which added a large number of tweets from non-experts while removing content sourced to a BBC article. DraKyry's not giving us a lot to work with.

OK not quire a breach of 3RR in the above, but check out the article history and you will see that this follows a busy war with an IP editor. The IP editor asked a WikiProject to help out (why I am here now), see here and here, so should not be blamed too harshly. On the other hand CBG17 blanked the appeal.

Result: User:CBG17 is warned for 3RR violation. If you check the sources, User:CBG17 is correct. The airline really doesn't have any A380s in their fleet.

Largely disruptive editor who got blocked just last month for edit warring (24 hours) and then for block evasion (72 hours). Entire talk page is full of the personal attacks, treatment of talk page as forum and WP:BLUDGEONING. He recently got away with edit warring at Lahore where he made more than 3 reverts and used his IP to evade 3RR.[188][189][190] Although he still continues to carry out same disruptive conduct on Talk:Lahore#July_edits as well, copy pasting same arguments over and over. Capitals00 (talk) 16:44, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

• Comment:

I believe this is a retaliatory complaint that actually occurred after I threatened to report him for HIS behavior - which has included numerous attempts to remove a Washington Post news story on his alleged basis that the article/source is not credible. You can see it all right here: Talk:Godhra train burning. I infact think he deserves to be reprimanded for disruptive behavior as I hope to demonstrate below.

Capitols00 falsely alleged that I made personal attacks against him. My dispute is with his logic, and I've made it clear that he cannot simply devise bogus requirements before an article can be deemed a reliable source. He repeatedly has argued that a news story in the Washington Post was not reliable, and literally made up his own requirements for inclusion.

Capitols00 first alleged that my original edit was OR that violated the WP:NOR despite me conforming to the stated requirements of properly citing the source. The remaining bogus requirements below that he made up popped up after I demonstrated that no such OR was ever ever ever introduced on my part.

Over the course of several hours, he made-up the following requirement one after another in order to "move the goalpost" to discredit my Washington Post source - and this is from the talk page for the Godhra train burning page:

• 1) Sources published 14 years ago cannot be considered reliable. He doesn't say how recent they must be, but all we know is that his subjective cut-off is sometime before the 14 year mark. This has no basis in Wiki guides as far as I can tell.

• 2) For a source to be deemed credible, it MUST be cited by other authors. He even went so far as to imply that unless this requirement is met, it is then not a news piece, but an opinion piece. Again, a made up and self-serving definition. I honored this demand by even providing him with several publications in which the item in question was indeed cited by other authors. Predictably, he argued the citations I provided don't count, based of course on his own self-serving and opaque standards.

• 3) He then added that the sources must also be cited by multiple authors from multiple publishing houses in order to be deemed reliable. Again, this is made up, but as noted above, I offered several sources. His complaint was that two of the total six citations provided were from Human Rights Watch, and therefore I had not met his personal standards.

• 4) He also stated that a news story with anonymous sources is somehow discredited. This is not only another bogus requirement, but demonstrates a lack of understanding of journalism.

• 5) He implied that the Washington Post is not a reliable source. This despite the fact that Washington Post is the newspaper that broke the story on Watergate which led to the downfall of President Nixon. WashPo also has broken numerous stories about the current Trump Administration which have even lead to investigations into Michael Flynn's conduct with the Russians. User:Kautilya3 even commented that the WashPo article is definitely reliable, and that Capitols00 should drop his opposition to it.

• 6) He said WashPo had to be "legible" several times on my talk page. I don't even know what this was in reference to but I assure you, Washington Post's choice of font is quite legible.

• 7) He also said that User:MBlaze Lightning made the same reverts in an attempt to justify his actions. This was patently untrue as he/she removed a citation because it was an unreliable source. TCapitols00 insisted that MBlaze had removed it because it was Original Research,, despite the fact that the edit very clearly stated it was because of a poor and unreliable source.

• 8) He then argued that the information should not be presented on the page because "No one else" had thought to introduce the information, which he termed "Throw-away." This is untrue, because as you can see from the MBlaze Lightning edit above, User:Notthebestusername in fact had tried to introduce some similar information, though the edits were removed as they were sourced from unreliable references. This bogus requirement also is contradictory to the mission of Wikipedia, which is that any user can add well-sourced and reliable edits to a page.

This was all clearly an attempt for him to push a POV by grasping at straws to ensure that edits couldn't appear on the page that challenged his understanding of events. Those are the issues I argued with him about - those aren't personal attacks. I simply pointed out that these requirements are bogus and made up. I was forceful, because after 4 hours of discussion he kept making up more and more bogus requirements.

In fact, as you can see, Capitols00 has been attempting to WP:STONEWALLING in order to push his personal POV.

He keeps posting links to various Wiki pages in order to feign an image of authority. He even went so far as to say the Washington Post published an article that was a WP:Fringe theories - and directed me to the Wiki page which he didnt read, since examples of Fringe Theory included Holocaust Denial, Creationism, and disputing the 1969 moon landing.: Firstly it was reverted by me, then it was reverted by @MBlaze Lightning: because you are using an opinion piece 14 years ago as facts that doesn't go well that other more accepted opinions, see WP:FRINGE. Capitals00 (talk) 00:56, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

As shown above User:MBlaze Lightning did NOT make the reversion as Capitals00 falsely stated, and instead reverted an edit because of an unreliable source). Capitals00 tried to justify his actions by a completely unrelated edit made by another user, which I think is quite dishonest, and displays poor etiquette.

You can also see on my own User talk:Willard84 that he falsely accused me of harassing him, when I made a comment on a noticeboard he was on that made absolutely no reference to him whatsoever.

I suggest, and this isn't out of malice, that Capitols00 in fact be reprimanded for his behavior. You can see on the Talk:Godhra train burning page how forcefully he tried to ensure his POV is not challenged by using his own bogus, self-serving, and rapidly evolving made-up ÷definition of what constitutes a reliable source.

He also, seemingly maliciously, launched a sock puppet investigation (which he referenced above) that ended up being a failed attempt to have me banned. You can see my lengthy defense here Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Willard84/Archive, and how two reviewers dismissed his claims, and even banned User:PolandHistoryProf as a sock puppet. It was this sock puppet whose edits I reverted that Capitols00 is referring to in his 3RR allegation against me.

Regarding the alleged attempt at 3RR evasion, this is again made up because as you can see from the sockpuppet investigation, I actually DID claim responsibility for the edit by signing it as you can see here for edits made while experiencing technical difficulties: 16:24, 1 July 2017 (diff | hist) . . (-453)‎ . . Lahore ‎ (→‎Post-Mughal: this letter is irrelevant to Lahore. Add it to Ragubathrao's page if needed. Other info has NOT been deleted. Just this lengthy and irrelevant block quote. -Willard84. (Phone isn't logging me in()

The argument was made patently clear already, yet he is bringing up the issue to somehow suggest evidence of my wrongdoing for "disruptive behavior"

Indeed, my reversion during that dispute was to remove the edits of User:PolandHistoryProf who has been banned as a sock puppet because of the information I provided in my defense.

Regarding the June 3 block, as per Wiki, once the block is over, it is over. I didn't dispute the block since I wasn't really familiar with the rule prior to this - I hadn't been blocked before. His attempts to use this as evidence against me here and on the sock puppet investigation (that was ruled essentially in my favor) are therefore inappropriate, and frankly, irrelevant.

The irony of this is that as you can see on the Godhra train burning page, that he is one who is disruptive, and launched this investigation after I threatened to report him for his disruptive behavior. For the reasons given above, I think he should be reprimanded.

Oh, and regarding the Lahore:Talk edits, you can see that I'm engaged in a constructive discussion there, not the disruptive editing as he falsely claims.Willard84 (talk) 17:52, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Music314812813478 is adding contentious and poorly sourced material to an FA, reverting against three editors. He was warned at 17:39, 6 July. He was warned in June about 3RR at another article. SarahSV ^(talk) 20:58, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

I was adjusting my edits according to the demands of the other editors. I was not just reverting them mindlessly.Music314812813478 (talk) 21:05, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

I did not ignore the other editors, I fulfilled, or at least tried to fulfill, their requests. For example, @DocJames: requested for contemporary English sources, and in response I added contemporary scholars to back the content. That cannot be called edit warring, could it? And I do not like how you use the article's featured Article status as if it were some perfect untouchable work that shall be tainted by every change made to it. Please get real; knowledge changes continuously, and no article can eternally retain its Featured Article status. Music314812813478 (talk) 21:10, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Why are you bringing the other article up? If you looked into it, I stopped reverting back then and had a peaceful discussion with Eperoton. What relevance does that have here?Music314812813478 (talk) 21:15, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Look, DocJames demanded sources, I added a reliable one. When he said that it would be better if the sources were contemporary, I added contemporary sources becaus ethat is what he wanted. If he finds something wrong in the sources, then I will gladly try and solve the problem. Is this-doing what the other editors wanted and peacefully cooperating with them-supposed to be "edit-warring"?Music314812813478 (talk) 21:29, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Please first note that the accused user removed my edits on his talk page informing him that I filed a report against him, as you can see here. Willard84 (talk) 20:28, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Here's a link to the discussion page which had initially been set up to address another user's disruptive editing. The same discussion board covered what D4iNA4 had also had issue with, and he/she left a small blurb without actually taking note that another user had also agreed that the Washington Post is a reliable source. D4iNa4 is removing well-cited edits on the basis that a well-cited and reliable source cannot be added unless "consensus" has been reached - though even a cursory glance at the page will show that it is being monitored by several people who are pushing a POV that favors their majoritarian position (which as per WP:CONSENSUS is not actually the definition of consensus. There are four specific claims - all of which he removed without any justification: (1 That a payment dispute had taken place 2) that passengers on board were rowdy, 3) that the reputation of the rowdy passengers had reached Godhra by the time the train arrived 4) that passengers refused to pay good vendors at Godhra.

The page in question deals with a very sensitive topic in Indian politics, and is especially touchy for right-wing nationalists who would like to see the blame for the incident placed squarely on what politicized Indian court's termed as a "Muslim conspiracy" despite ample evidence by several international news agencies and NGOs like Human Rights Watch have noted to be untrue. Though I'm not insinuating that the user in dispute is a nationalist, but rather making a general point.

Quite a few users have been attempting to WP:STONEWALLING the page in order to maintain a status quo which is biased in their POV's favor. They therefore, are attempting to prevent any information that challenges their views by arguing for consensus - though as noted, they are quite numerous and will regard the majority opinion as consensus, thereby ensuring that no information which contradicts their POV will be permitted.

• Comment Seems like Willard84 should really deserve an indefinite CIR block. He don't understand that Wikipedia is a team work. A report is up there, showing Willard84 violated 4RR, seeing him continuously copy pasta entire talk page discussion over there just shows his WP:BATTLEGROUND mentality, he just left a disruptive message on my talk page telling me about the discussion that I should "review the talk page"[192], while ignoring that I have already read and replied the discussion twice. D4iNa4 (talk) 17:37, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
• Comment

The report by Capitals00 (who is part of the POV-pushing majority on the Godhra page) has not been ruled in his favor. The mere opening of a case, regardless of its merits, does not implicate any wrongdoing on my part. A cursory glance at your talk page reveals that investigations have been launched against you as well that have resulted in blocking of your account. But as per Wikipedia guidelines, once a punishment is metted out, the issue is closed. Hence why I did not mention that in my original case against you, but now its up to the reviewers to decide whether to consider this or not.

User:Kautilya3 agreed the source was valid, while User:Notthebestusername attempted to incorporate similar viewpoints before being overruled by POV-pushers. Ironically, the three of us have in some form or another supported the inclusion of this information while only you and Capitols00 have argued against it (and you can see here how bogus Capitols00 requirements were (he made-up at least 9 different requirements for a source to be deemed reliable; none of which are to be found in wikipedia guides), yet you are debating whether consensus has been reached.Willard84 (talk) 17:42, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

• Comment - editor has now been reverted by at least 5 other editors at this point. Messages have been left at their talk page, and their continued insistence to ignore attempts to help them understand is disturbing. If they do have a history of edit warring, then perhaps a longer than normal block is warranted. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 02:02, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

4 editors have reverted this, not "at least 5." The reverts are being done in a brash manner and all by editors who have never edited the page before. This indicates either that I have been stalked, or that one editor is rallying others to revert for them. No one has addressed the comparison of the actual content [202]. Furthermore, the messages left on my talk page were not attempts to help. I hope the decision maker in this report actually looks at what we're talking about instead of taking your word for it. Of course I see that this back and forth editing is not ideal, but you aren't offering an alternative. My efforts to bring another related matter to the BLP noticeboard have been ignored. Talk page discussions have gone nowhere [203]. Kas42 (talk) 02:05, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Just saying, none of these editors have ever edited the page until now. This edit warring -- all over a simple, noncontentious correction -- has consisted of more entries in the revision history than this page has had in the past year. To repeat myself, look at the content rather than this smokescreen stuff. Kas42 (talk) 02:30, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Incredibly unhelpful. Dr.K has offered nothing as an alternative to improve the article. Edit is self-explanatory and sourced [204]. Opposing editors fail to articulate a reason not to include content [205], and demonstrate incompetence [206] as well as a complete lack of knowledge about the page they're editing [207]. This is a clear example of abusing privilege. In another revert, opposing editor puts inapplicable label in edit summary [208]. Source for content can be viewed directly here [209].

  • You really, really, really need to read WP:EDITWAR and take the lessons therein to heart. Note especially the statement "but my edits were right, so it wasn't edit warring" is no defense. That can be frustrating if you're convinced you're right, but those are the rules we live under. By my count you have eleven (11) non-consecutive edits within a few hours having summaries that begin with "Undid revision..." so this is an open-and-shut case, what with 11 being greater than 3 and all.

The first three reverts, performed in very quick succession, are reverts of this edit of mine [223] (also note how he mocks me by using the same edit-summary word for word [224]). As things got pretty hot, I opened a thread on the talkpage and had considered the matter resolved, but then Resnjari reverted [225] this edit of mine [226].

The user is highly aggressive towards me (gratuitous, overt [227] and underhanded [228] personal attacks) and seems to be reverting me just out of spite (note he does not revert other users, only me).

This is the second time in a few days that he violates 3RR at this article. A week ago he reached 5 reverts within 24 hours at the very same article:

1. [229]
   
2. [230]
   
3. [231]
   
4. [232]
   
5. [233]
   

In all five of these reverts he reinstates this edit [234] by another user (the addition of the definite Albanian form of the town name to the lede).

This user is extremely self-righteous and thinks his righteousness exempts him from 3RR. It needs to be made absolutely clear that this needs to stop, otherwise this behavior will continue indefinitely, of that there is no doubt. Khirurg (talk) 19:25, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Some similar claims are at work here attempted against me previously which was later withdrawn by the same filing editor [235].

Here the most serious accusation made by the editor against me is that others are editing on my behalf while overlooking that multiple people edit articles and that it is not the preserve of a select few. In that same context the filing editor accuses the editor BATO of being a sock of Sulmues, (and going through the Wiki record, someone the filing editor seemed have had past disputes with) to revert some edit that was not liked. As another editor has been cited here, it must be noted that BATO is not a banned editor [236] (nor has a sock investigation case even been launched, just accusations by the filing editor). The claim made by the editor that i reverted 5 times is unfounded. Edits made by BATO are included in this accusation as being mine [237]. Going through another page, he has accused BATO of being a sock without even using the talkpage for dialogue in what appears at preventing edits based on smear and personal attacks [238], [239] and not Wikipedia guidelines or policy related to editing of the article. Last one checked these kind of accusations and smear fall under wp:witchhunt and wp:harass.

Other edits i made were not reverts as i added content manually for one [240], [241] and as the editor did not make his position clear (of which the onus rests) or based it on Wikipedia policy/guidelines for doing so. With that absence, the re-adding of content on my part was due to me assuming it was vandalism (as per WP:3RR).

I have said to this editor to take the matter to the talkpage many days back [242]. The filing editor continuously persisted by making their edits which were sneaky [243] and did not bother with the talkpage until a few hours ago [244]. The editor engaged in problematic language with me in the past on this issue [245] i.e "crap", etc, while i did not. I do acknowledge though that some better wording today could have been used on my part.

This edit claimed by the filing editor as a revert is also disingenuous [246] as it had nothing to do with the matter of the definite toponym issue and was relating to something completely different that was not discussed in the talkpage or even elsewhere on Wikipedia.

Another claim made by the editor is that i only revert their edits. That is false. I recently reverted edits made by other editors: [247] or the usual IP POV [248]. I only revert when i feel that Wikipedia standards have not been followed.

The filing editor did not use any attempt to explain their position based on Wikipedia guidelines or policy to maintain good faith in previous times. The issue relating to the definite toponym issue ceased after it was made apparent much, much later in the Sarandë talkpage by other editors. I had to also seek out the information that other editors placed in the talkpage for my self which was time consuming to confirm that removal of content was in line with Wikipedia standards and not based on POV [249].Resnjari (talk) 21:57, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

The accusation against you is that you violated 3RR, clearly, unambiguously, unmistakably. The fact that you "added content manually" does not mean your edits were not reverts. You re-added the same content. Whether you did it "manually" or by pressing "undo" makes no difference - they are still reverts. And resorting to calling my edits vandalism is blockable in itself. It's not too late to self-revert though. Khirurg (talk) 22:15, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

I stand by what i said. You made no attempt to base your edits on Wikpedia guidelines -policy of something of that nature. Saying something is "unnecessary" is not much to go on and creates bad faith, not good faith as it says to other editors that personal POV outright is being exercised. Also some things alleged by you about other editors very clearly falls under wp:witchhunt and wp:harass and then lumping their edits that have nothing to do with the issue as mine is disingenuous. It makes me think you have a axe to grind with me. Its kind of similar the way you went about things regarding a editor some time back trying to get them sanctioned with admins being not to pleased with you in the end regarding how it was done and the case failing in the end. [250]. Who knows how this will go. Resnjari (talk) 22:32, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

That you think my edits are not policy based (they are policy based in fact) still does not exempt you from 3RR. You seem to have a hard time understanding that 3RR applies whether you think you are right or not (see my note about self-righteousness above). As for "lumping" things that have nothing to do with the issue, that's what you're doing with linking to that old AN report above. Khirurg (talk) 22:59, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

When did you attempt in previous times to explain or to invoke that what you where doing was based on Wikipedia policy/guidelines etc (over the past whatever days this thing has been going on)? The onus is on you to explain, not me and then to chase things up and make sure your editing checks out. An insufficient answer only leads other editor(s) to conclude that the edit is POV and vandalism. You will get reverted in that context. You are an experienced editor who knows that toponym related issues can lead to problems and that is when sometimes even Wikipedia policy/guidelines are invoked. Here you did not even do that for many days. "Unnecessary" is not sufficient reason. I even suggested to you some days ago to take the issue to the talkpage [251]. Nonetheless as editing continued how are edits like this [252] supposed to be interpreted as trustworthy, saying you’re doing one thing but removing something else. Excuse the tone but that did in no way endear good faith. The previous ANI was added the same way as you have added other peoples edits to equal in terms of edits your claim of me breaking 3RR. As i said its more of an axe to grind situation.Resnjari (talk) 23:38, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

This is getting funnier by the minute. So it's my job to make sure you don't violate 3RR? No, that's your job. You performed three rapid-fire reverts last night, with insulting and aggressive edit-summaries to boot ("axe to grind situation" as you say), and this morning you broke 3RR, and still you are not getting it and refusing to see what's wrong with your actions. A block is due indeed. Khirurg (talk) 23:49, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Well the comedy of the situation is never ending. When you make an edit and have some idea it could be controversial an explanation of sorts would be good as you are the one insisting on change, not me or others. Otherwise why the change, because aesthetically its not to your liking? Maybe you might not want something, but someone else might. So you need more than that sometimes especially on sensitive parts of an article like that. In addition, lumping other peoples edits and alleging them as mine goes to the heart of this being about other things than a 3RR issue. Its more on the wp:witchhunt and wp:harass side.Resnjari (talk) 00:02, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

I did explain my edits. The fact that you didn't like my explanation does not entitle you to violate 3RR (and lace your edit summaries with personal attacks). And you even continued reverting after I opened a talkpage discussion. The only exemption to 3RR is obvious vandalism. so which is it? Are my edits obvious vandalism or did you violate 3RR? Because there's no other way around it. Do you understand what you did and what is wrong with it? Khirurg (talk) 01:01, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Question: User:Resnjari, you appear to have broken 3RR on July 6 at Sarandë, beginning at 06:26 on 6 July. Do you disagree? I don't see a clear answer from you above. In the broader period from June 28 through July 6, it appears that both you and User:Khirurg have been edit warring on this article. Admins don't want this to continue, so we need to choose a response that is adequate to stop the war. EdJohnston (talk) 02:14, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

There may be an appearance of a breaking of the 3RR rule though i maintain that for my part I did not revert the filing editor on the multiple occasions surpassing 3 times as suggested. The first edit i added the name [253], it was followed by a revert by Khirug [254]. I then reverted [255], followed by a revert on Khirug's part [256] and i then re-added the name [257]. After that i did not edit the article regarding that issue. Further edits were related to commas [258] and other things [259]. From which edit are we counting the 3rr rule though ? Is it the first edit by me or his revert of the first edit by me? Also the answer which i had sought was eventually provided (from a different editor) on the talkpage though i had to follow it up for additional conformation and information regarding template guidelines. I have no other edits to make on the Saranda page, nor have i added something of substance to that article for a long while.Resnjari (talk) 05:27, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

This [260] is a revert, since you undid this edit of mine [261]. It's about as clear a revert as can be. Doesn't matter that it was over something else, it's still a revert. Since you say you have no other edits to make on the Saranda page, then it shouldn't be a problem for you to self-revert (still not too late). Khirurg (talk) 06:11, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

The matter you refered me to here was about the toponym definite issue. So far if are counting the above example as a revert suggested by you, then your addition here [262] is a revert of me (using the reason of "clarification"), which makes you having broken the 3rr rule. Or is that different somehow? As i said in my previous comment from where are we counting this?Resnjari (talk) 06:17, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Ok, you really really really need to read WP:REV. I think we are running into WP:COMPETENCE issues here (unless it's feigned - could be). Khirurg (talk) 06:23, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

So your revert is not a revert, but my edit is a revert ? A bit Orwellian there.Resnjari (talk) 06:34, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

I have investigated this and find that Resnjari is edit warring and has violated WP:3RR on that article. As this is not a first offence I decided that a short block was in order. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:08, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

I have warned the IP 5.* for repeatedly reverting and editwarring, but they continued to editwar without any regard for the wikipedia policies. There is a lengthy discussion on going on the talk page about various aspects of the article but this edit warring while discussing is disrupting that discussion. There seems to be a WP:DRN section start for this article as well but IP 5.* has not shown any regard for that too and just continued to edit war on the article. They have completely ignored my 3rr notice and have violated 3rr policy. If we count the first 2 diffs above, the goes to an edit war of 6 reverts in total. If you see, due to his edit war with other IPs and users, the page was previously semi protected. I think other IPs and users are many and this guy alone is baiting them to edit war and reverting many different users (in today's 3rr violation alone, he reverted myself and the IP 92.*). I think semi protection again will not work this time. Please block him for this violation so that he comes to discuss next time. --Techtrek (talk) 12:26, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

This has been an issue that has been resolved in the past which I do not mindlessly change the template in future as seen in my editing history and no longer attempt to do this again. To accuse me of trying to own articles based on previous incidents unrelated to this is a not a good reason. I find it ironic that I only started reverting the most recent version even though previous versions were being forcebly added by users with similar editing patterns in which other users object (see editing history of Ho Chi Minh City). Also you should had informed me about this if you open a case for this. I also did not read the speedy deletion criteria properly which is a mistake and I started a discussion on the article's talk page after the warning. The first link under "Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page" is not a revert, it is a minor edit to show the contributions of the users involved so readers can look at their editing histories.

I am not being pro-Chinese. The source used for Taiwan's ethnicity page uses the term "Han Chinese", not "Han Taiwanese".

Most of naming of places in Malaysia can carry 4 Language, Malay,tamil,Mandarin and English. Same like Singapore. User try to delete the tamil name.

Are Chinese and Tamil now recognised as the official languages of Malaysia? This is English Wikipedia. Chinese and Tamil names can go to Chinese and Tamil Wikipedias respectively.

Ritchie333. I've done it several times. It really gets the editors attention. My feeling is that if you block then there is no discussion and at least this way they can discuss. Sometimes there is no other choice but to block. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 19:22, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

No, I understand protection instead of blocking, that's fine - just for a week? 24 hours is usually enough. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 19:35, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

User:Cassianto is continually removing long-standing material at Overtoun Bridge with no regard for WP:CON. Another editor tweaked the material this morning, and felt no reason to remove it. I don't either. Cassianto feels that he should decide. Loonball5 (talk) 18:17, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

Please familiarise yourself with WP:BRD. The stupid piece of information telling readers of an encyclopaedia that there is a sign on the bridge telling people to keep dogs on a lead, is beyond comprehension. I've deleted this per BRD. The information was boldly added two years ago, I've revereted it, and now the onus is on you to discuss. That's how it works around here. But since you're clearly OWNing this article and have now breached 3rr at least two times over, you were clearly never going to honour your side of the bargain by discussing this on the talk page, were you? Cassianto^Talk 18:23, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

Nope. You made a bold removal of long-standing material, I reverted you, and now you're refusing to discuss. Classic WP:OWN behaviour. Loonball5 (talk) 18:25, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

Please try to engage your brain. The boldness was the edit that added the information...look...this is wholly irrelevant here as this is an edit warring noticeboard. I am here to report your disruptive behaviour. Cassianto^Talk 18:30, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

"This is wholly irrelevant"... as long as you get in your passive-aggressive insult attempt. Please grow up and stop vandalising the article. Loonball5 (talk) 18:35, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

How is me removing inane fucking information about a sign telling dog walkers to keep their dogs on a lead, "vandalism"? Cassianto^Talk 18:43, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

Vile language. Just vile. Loonball5 (talk) 18:49, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

• I have had to ask Loonball5 to cease accusing others of OWNership and vandalism, just because he is not getting his way. My request was deleted with "Whatever", and further uncivil accusations of OWNership have followed (as per the comment above, too). - SchroCat (talk) 18:22, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

Nah. I added a patently notable detail about the subject and was bullied off the page. The bullies finally relented and the material stayed because it was undeniably relevant. So why was I repeatedly reverted and slapped down in the first place? Could it be that there are in fact major WP:OWN problems pervading Wikipedia? That said, I apologise for the tone used in those edit summaries. I was emotional and out of line. Loonball5 (talk) 19:15, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

As for 3RR, I thought that rule was in relation to reverting the same user three times. Not that I could only revert three times overall. OK, I screwed up there. Sorry. Loonball5 (talk) 18:31, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

No, it's not. Too late. Cassianto^Talk 18:43, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

Sure thing, champ. Save your profane ranting for facebook, would you? After all, we're here to discuss my oh-so-awful behaviour. Loonball5 (talk) 18:47, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

It looks like Bob Lazar is heading the same direction, with Loonball5 edit warring and accusing others of wp:POINTy behaviour. – SchroCat (talk) 21:30, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

Indeed. I'd like to see Loonball5 prevented from editing Bob Lazar, as otherwise there's just going to be a massive edit war over post-period spacing. Spacing!

Situation. I've extensively edited that article. I know, that doesn't mean I own it, but it does mean I'm quite likely to edit it in the future. I've no problem with someone coming to make constructive edits. Loonball5 is not doing that, he's simply removing double-spacing after periods. While it may be a little old-fashioned, it's explicitly allowed by the WP:MOS, as it doesn't affect how the article displays when not in edit mode. I explained this to Loonball5, as well as explaining that I find it makes it easier for me to edit the article. I referred to BRD and invited him to talk about it. Nada, just nonsensical edit summary references to WP:POINT, and my apparent mean-spiritedness. No idea how he noticed the spacing in the first place, as he's not made any previous edits to the article.

I accidentally fell foul of the 3RR (ironically while warning him to watch his step, given this case): I immediately self-reverted and came here. Some administrator input would be appreciated. Cheers, Bromley86 (talk) 21:45, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

The user is promoting singers of specific nationality on the name space Wikipedia article Singing which is a subject of public interest from around the world, I removed promotional images, however the editor reverted it back accusing vandalism. Please have a look Anoptimistix (talk) 08:04, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

My dear Anoptimistix, you have no idea what edit war is. You have wrongly accused me of edit warring. Please read three-revert rule. The 3RR says an editor must not perform more than three reverts, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material, on a single page within a 24-hour period. Moreover, You are removing the names of American singers like Billie Holiday and Ahmed Rushdi which are properly sourced. I invited you on the Singer's talk page to generate a discussion in order to reach to a consensus but you did not pay any heed.-Umair Aj (talk) 10:41, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

@Umair Aj: I observed you didnt ping me in the article of singing's talk page So I was not notified of the debate, But I have left my message there, further I noted some editors also raised concern over the promotion of famous singers of their respective nationalities on an article like singing which has public interest and should be written upon the facts ,history and context of singing. I may be wrong but it seems the only objective is to promote those singers. Anoptimistix (talk) 11:39, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

• Result: User:Umair Aj is warned they may be blocked if they continue to promote the work of a specific Pakistani singer (Ahmed Rushdi) on a page which is intended to cover the general phenomenon of singing. If you believe that Rushdi deserves to be assigned such high importance you should get consensus for his inclusion on a talk page first. EdJohnston (talk) 01:52, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
