Welcome to the edit warring noticeboard | ||

This page is for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule.
You must notify any user you have reported. You may use You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.
Edit warring is a behavior, typically exemplified by the use of repeated edits to "win" a content dispute. It is different from a bold, revert, discuss (BRD) cycle. Reverting vandalism and banned users is not edit warring; at the same time, content disputes, even egregious point of view edits and other good-faith changes do not constitute vandalism. Administrators often must make a judgment call to identify edit warring when cooling disputes. Administrators currently use several measures to determine if a user is edit warring.
An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Violations of this rule normally attract blocks of at least 24 hours. Any appearance of gaming the system by reverting a fourth time just outside the 24-hour slot is likely to be treated as a 3RR violation. See here for exemptions.
Sections older than 48 hours are archived by Lowercase sigmabot III.

- User added a whole bunch of random pictures of Godzilla to the article that clearly fail WP:IRELEV. They are just random shots of the character from the movie trailer that offer no commentary or relevancy to the article and have nothing to do with the sections in question (ie shot of Godzilla walking in forest under the Preservation section). Despite my trying to reason with him, my edits are constantly reverted.Giantdevilfish (talk) 13:49, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- The user Giantdevilfish is the one who started undoing my edits for no reason not the other way around as he wants you to believe. Jackiechanbruceleekungfu (talk) 13:52, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

As I know that IP, the IP from UK repeatedly reverted their edits, which is repeatedly adding Daily Mail and it is not the source to do so, it say that DailyMail does count as a reliable source. But as a result per WP:DAILYMAIL, it says, "The use of Daily Mail as a reference is to be generally prohibited, especially when other more reliable sources exist". 2600:6C4E:580:A:B08F:1665:9707:EE06 (talk) 00:26, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

User keeps on adding caste of the subject when there is an established consensus that caste of a WP:BLP requires self-identification [7]. I've explained to them multiple times in the edit summaries and their talk page. This particular user is known for their Brahmin caste POV push and have been reverted and warned by many users besides me.

- Fylindfotberserk, they are a suspected sock of the disruptive, blocked editor Pandit9087108. So I've filed a relevant SPI: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Pandit9087108. - NitinMlk (talk) 10:45, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
- A simple glance at the user's talk page is more than enough for me to attached a WP:NOTHERE to them. Ifnord (talk) 15:49, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
- I'm seeing a persistent problem with not including verifiable sources, with an instance as recently as this morning.[8] This is despite previously receiving a final warning for this behaviour (as well as several more warnings since).

Not a 3RR violation, slow moving edit war that resumed immediately after 3 month protect on this page expired. Same user as before as is obvious, different IP. Last was blocked for edit warring.

User arbitrarily wipes sourced content. According to his inflammatory attacks on my talk page, it's apparently just because it makes scholars he admires look bad. I asked him to prove his claims that the content on the two pages were malicious lies, as he inferred, which he ignored and persisted in wiping the content. — LissanX (talk) 01:26, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

User is currently edit warring at Brisbane Transport, I've repeatedly told them to source their content via edit summaries as well as on my talkpage, and even went as far as pasting the entire article to their subpage (User:EamonM25/Brisbane Transport) however none of this has had any effect, Thanks –Davey2010Talk 10:47, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
It isn't necessary to ban as I already said I have given up editing pages. I understand he has a task to do and I respect that, all, in the end, I was trying to make the page a lot better.
