German IP user has sporadically been reverting to their preferred version of the lead since June 2022. In the last day, however, they took to edit warring, which began with this edit made by a different German-based IP. I've explained to them in the custom message appended to the warning that their choice of lead contains original research and subjective language. In the same message, I also invited them to discuss the problem on the article talk page, as well as seek help from WP:TEAHOUSE if needed. However, they either did not read my messages or chose to ignore them. CurryTime7-24 (talk) 04:06, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

Continually reverting edits back to their preferred version. The number of MLAs and MPs is already provided on the page, but the user is changing it to random numbers to make it look less accurate. Since the state-wise data is already given on page for every party, there’s discussion needed on where they’re adding it. Even after replying them on their talk page, they did not respond and restored different random number, their every edit has random number of seats in state seats count which clearly shows vandalism.

Adding undue material to a contentious BLP, with generally unreliable and/or biased sources (alongside some reliable ones that don't support their proposed material). Their edit summaries and this message clearly indicate inappropriate involvement of editorial bias. It looks like they also want to add positive PR into the article. KyleJoantalk 09:01, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Editor who reported me has edit-warred with no less than five editors on this article in the last 48 hours or so. This editor continues to edit this article in a highly biased way, clearly violating BLP rules, reverting the numerous editors who sought to insert balance. Editor also made baseless claims against me - both above and on the page itself - of trying to "add positive PR", after I added some human-interest nugget which I discovered while bolstering sources in response to her attempting to negate the ones which were already in place, and then falsely suggested that I have a WP:COI issue. (I don't know Dikoupil from apples). This editor has removed NPOV content placed by multiple editors trying to properly balance both the page and the specific issue at hand, instead presenting a highly misleading, highly biased, one-sided, BLP-violating article bordering on slanderous.

Comments:
This is a selective reading of events. My friend Geogene here left one comment on the article's talk page, which I then replied to, making new suggestions and soliciting for feedback, but never received another reply. Geogene's only further actions were to revert my subsequent changes which incorporated their concerns expressed on the talk page. My last edit, reinstating my last revised edition, again entreated Geogene to bring it to the talk page and I warned Geogene to be mindful of WP:3RR. Notably, somehow my warning to Geogene is being cited above as Geogene's warning to me. Geogene did not issue any such warning.
Now, given that my second edit was a completely different change to my first, based on Geogene's concerns, I count only 2 reversions on my part, while for Geogene, I count 1, 2, 3 reversions, none of which were iterative or different, and were literally just reversions of anything I added, no matter what it was, while (seemingly) refusing any further discussion on the article's talk page. Louiedog (talk) 14:54, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- I linked to Louiedog's 3RR warning because it proves they have some level of awareness of edit warring policy. Continuing to reinstate edits that I have already opposed both in edit summary and on the talk page on grounds of primary, and undue, is edit warring. Including new changes that I'm also opposed to (moving controversy from the lead to the body) at the same time as re-adding the disputed content does not mean it's not edit warring. Demanding that I return to the talk page to repeat previously stated objections before re-reverting the disputed additions does not justify edit warring. It is just possible that Louiedog does not understand the objections I made, but that doesn't justify continuing to re-add the disputed content. Geogene (talk) 17:18, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Great! Would you please return to the talk page and write back to me so we can establish a consensus going forward on what to be included in this article, rather than carrying this out as a zero-sum debate? WP:3RR explicitly says don't rely on the edit summaries.
- My latest edit that you removed was entirely different than my first, including a change to reflect your objection that the newer source only discussed Staffordshire Terriers. Further, my latest edit includes all the temperament information from the 2008 Duffy paper, both that which is favorable and unfavorable to Pit Bulls (that they are not more aggressive toward owners or strangers but that they are more aggressive toward other dogs), so this seemed neutral to me. Had you partially reverted some part of that edit to address specific concerns (as I had solicited for on the talk page), we would be making progress, but instead you wholesale removed even my revised edit. All this to say, I have been offering iterative attempts toward your concerns, rather than simply reverting to what I had earlier. Louiedog (talk) 20:15, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

This user insists on arbitrarily removing references in the articles Monroy (surname) and de Monroy without there being a consensus. Since last year he has been removing references and only leaving the reference that he considers academically valid according to his personal criteria, but his reference is not a book, just a website, the same argument that he uses to insist that said surname is Spanish. The user confuses a Spanish city called Monroy with the linguistic origin of that surname that does not have Spanish grammar, because Monroy in Spanish does not mean red mountain, it is not linguistically of Spanish origin.
For example these historical characters have a version of Monroy like last name, but their linguistic surnames are not Spanish, mon is my in French and Roy meaning king derivate of Norman English and Roi in French:
https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Albrecht_von_Monroy
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georg_von_Monroy
https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_von_Monroy
This user also whitewashed his talk page in the past. Which is also against Wikipedia regulations:
Please I request this user to stop deleting references just because he doesn't like them. I do not delete their references, and it is also against Wikipedia regulations to delete references without prior consensus.
Thank you so much.--Patodonald1818

This user is mainly active on the Dutch-language Wikipedia, where he has been blocked for over 45+ times [35] and is subjected to various arbcom restraints [36], many of them related to edit warring. I am aware that past behavior on other Wikipedia-projects should have little relevance here, but I mention it anyway to show that this user is intimately familiar with the 3RR and edit warring; something he himself confirmed here when he was warned that he was engaged in an edit war by Austronesier, stating that there was "no need" to notify him as he was "already very familiar with the rules/guidelines here."
By making his 4th revert less than a day after having reverted 3 times in the previous 24 hours, he's just gaming the system at this point.
For the sake of transparency; I myself have reverted this user twice ([37], [38]), whereas another user involved, Austronesier, reverted him once ([39]). Vlaemink (talk) 10:55, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Vlaemink: IMHO, while WP:BRD is not a policy, a 3RR-report when you're the one who made an undiscussed split first is not a good idea. WP:ONUS is still on you to explain why we need a stub-quality fork. –Austronesier (talk) 11:13, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Austronesier:: With all due respect; no exceptional claim was made here. This was an edit, and not a particularly bold one at that, for which I immediately provided additional context on the talk page [40]. You yourself have stated that the claims behind De Wikischims reverts (that 'flagrant changes were made') were ridiculous and you too have reverted his edits. I reverted his edits twice, was that wise? No. Should I have handled that differently? Yes. But that's not what this request is about.
- Frankly, I don't care if he's blocked or not; but I do hope that the admins will see enough reasons listed here to send a very clear signal to this problematic user warning him to stop this kind of behavior right now; because this is wrong and should not be excused by my or your own mistakes. Vlaemink (talk) 11:41, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- Declined First because there's no 3RR violation and I don't find a repetitive pattern of avoiding it, second because the user has been discussing it on the talk page, and third because of the CLEANHANDS issue noted by Austronesier above. I also do not find the user's record on nlwiki directly relevant to just this incident; clearly their behavior over there has not gone unsanctioned and they seem to have avoided those problems in their minimal editing here. If there is more to this than meets the eye reviewing the instant incident, AN/I would be better. Daniel Case (talk) 18:40, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

User is repeatedly changing the infobox cuisine from "Arab" to "Middle East". After being notified that this was a 1RR issue, and also warned for simple edit warring over it, they were explicitly asked self-revert their 19:37 edit. They did that (saying in the edit summary that it was To avoid getting reported
), but then restored it ten minutes later with an edit summary rationale for why their version was correct. They restored their version again today after being reverted. --Belbury (talk) 13:39, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

ProfMoustafa (talk · contribs) keeps adding claims about a new Mersenne number primality test to the Lucas–Lehmer primality test article. I am not familiar with this person's work and do not claim to know how accurate his claims are, but the section was removed because it has nothing to do with the Lucas–Lehmer test and that we have a policy against original research. He has now re-added the removed content up to five times. Although I'm an administrator, I probably shouldn't be the one to take action against this user because I'm one of the people who have reverted his edits, and I want to avoid conflicts of interest if possible.

Edit warring over Six Season still being deleted was reverted a few days ago as well. Mainly reverted due to WP:Not Broken then WP:DE due to the first warning I gave. Didn’t apptepte to come to a sense on talk page. I did release after my last revert I went over my limit and was my mistake, but was mainly trying to just restore the page with the sixth season being there as in my opion it was fine and not an issue. Magical Golden Whip (talk) 07:44, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Magical Golden Whip: While I do agree that the other user is bring disruptive, with all due respect, as you do a lot of good work here, I would kindly suggest you use caution from here onward, as you are just as guilty in terms of edit warring and could easily see yourself blocked as well, which I do not want to see for you. Whether you're right or wrong is up to consensus on the article talk page. However, while there are some exceptions to continuously reverting another user or IP, your edits do not fall under said exemptions, as listed at WP:3RRNO. Add: Also, given the nature of this, it probably would have been better to let someone uninvolved start this since, as I mentioned earlier, you are involved and just as guilty in terms of edit warring.

Diff of ANEW notice posted to user's talk page: [71]
Comments:
Short: User tries to impose his own edits without checking it correctly, which is also irrelevant to the personality.
First he started by putting these extra redundant information about the person Persianate[5][6], Sunni[7]
, which was copy pasted from Aq Qoyunlu. If you're not familiar, it's about the Aq Qoyunlu state being Persianate and Sunni Muslim, while the article Uzun Hasan mentions that he was the ruler of Turkoman Aq Qoyunlu state, which is logical since that's their main idendity, not being "Persianate, Sunni Muslim". It is irrelevant to Uzun Hasan. Can't verify source [7].
Source [5] is about Uzun Hasan, but doesn't explicitly state it's "Persianate", while source [6] tells that Aq Qoyunlu state was Persianate (nothing about Uzun Hasan). I know it is about the Aq Qoyunlu state, but the point is to keep it short. This user wants to include Uzun Hasan being Persianate, while he just copied stuff from Aq Qoyunlu article. No one is calling Mehmed II being the ruler of Sunni Muslim Ottoman Empire
. There is nothing that indicates Uzun Hasan is Persianate and religion shouldn't be there either. But Turkoman should stay since Aq Qoyunlu is called White Sheep Turkomans in English historiography.
He also changes Persian name to first, instead of Azerbaijani, claiming Putting the official language first
, ignoring the alphabetical order. So I don't see a WP:GF here.
The way he's editing (look at commas) shows also he's not quite serious. I also asked for page protection before, but nothing happened.
Beshogur (talk) 13:17, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- I have a similar report about User:Beshogur. 4 times removing significant content with verifiable sources 1, 2, 3,4. He receive 3RR warning here. The user was asked to write his argument on the talk page instead of deleting the content, but he did not pay attention. Persianate (national/cultural identity), Sunni Muslim (religious identity) just like this person's tribal background (Turkoman) are the most important characteristics of this historical figure. Uzun Hassan was the king of a land called Iran/Persia and his official language was Persian [72], even his signature in the infobox is Persian language, so mentioning Azerbaijani language in the lead is irrelevant. Typing mistakes like commas or lack of language skill do not mean lack of seriousness, please be civil. -- Mahan (talk) 14:15, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hello Mahan, WP:ONUS applies: The onus to obtain a consensus for inclusion is on you. You can start a discussion on the article's talk page (Talk:Uzun Hasan), invite Beshogur to it, convince Beshogur and others, and if you remain in disagreement, perhaps ask for a third opinion. You may not restore the disputed content until a consensus is found. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 15:06, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- There is nothing like "official language" back then like written in constitutions today. Azerbaijani was the lingua franca of the region (see Ajem Turkic). Why are you trying to remove Azerbaijani now? I thought the problem was order of "official language". The order of both languages is simply listed alphabetical, there is no hidden purpose here. I didn't add "Turkoman" add the first place, yet being Turkoman is the main identity of the Aq Qoyunlu state, which makes "Persianate, Sunni Muslim" irrelevant for Uzun Hasan.
Uzun Hassan was the king of a land called Iran/Persia and his official language was Persian
so what? Uzun Hasan is the one that claimed descent of semi-mythical king Bayindir Khan. You're trying to remove everything related to Turkic (even removed "uzun" meaning Turkic. Reason?even his signature in the infobox is Persian language
that's not true because I found the signature first and added here on wikipedia. And there is nothing Persian there, it has his full name + symbol of his tribe + Turkic word syüzümïz (our word). Don't mislead people. This is slowly getting Wikipedia:Civil POV pushing. Beshogur (talk) 17:28, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Page protected ~ ToBeFree (talk) 15:06, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hello ToBeFree, I will request a third opinion on the talk page, but I disagree with the current version that you undid because it has caused the changing of some content other than the disputed issue (like royal titles and name meanings). Please check again. Thank you -- Mahan (talk) 15:24, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Mahan, a third opinion only makes sense when two opinions have already been expressed and discussed. The first step would be explaining your position on the talk page and inviting Beshogur to provide his position too. If there is an agreement about a part of your requests, that can be implemented even while the article is protected, using {{edit fully-protected}} as soon as an agreement exists. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:10, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Comments:
I have tried to be civil throughout the entire process of disagreement, but the user in question seems to think he can bully his way into winning an edit war as a more experienced user. Now he falsely claims I have fabricated a source which is, in fact, a true source that was used to maintain the same point on other articles on this site. He has also been rude and condescending throughout the entire process, as I have tried to remain kind and understanding. I hope that an administrator can help resolve this disagreement peacefully and amicably if possible. AvRand (talk) 12:45, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- That my null edit—which explicated the failed verification of a fabricated citation so that other editors would be made aware of the issue and judge the situation accordingly—is being cited here should more or less speak for itself. Remsense ‥ 论 12:50, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

- I guess I should try to make a case for myself and not make admins do all the investigation: I didn't violate 3RR, and I tried to minimize disruption by guiding OP to the talk pages with it specified that content policy issues needed to be worked out before they jumped to restore content again. They did so anyway, and were happy to disregard WP:V to do so. I hate pulling teeth like this, but if anyone has any advice for how I should better deal with situations without these, I would really appreciate it. I really hate using up my 3R "quota" across multiple pages and I hate having to treat it like a quota—but I don't know what else I'm meant to do other than hope someone else notices when someone fakes citations. Remsense ‥ 论 13:19, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- To provide context from my side: I was the one who created discussions on the talk pages, to meat out a consensus, and I went to two wikiprojects to ask for input from more neutral parties. He was content to ignore disagreements and revert edits with lines like "Nonsense" without providing support. Standard practice when there's a disagreement between editors is to leave the page as is while a discussion is had and a consensus reached. But he complained that the status quo page wasn't sourced, so I provided a source from a similar article. (A book I admittedly, haven't read in over six years/2018 when I was researching the War of 1812.) But that I assumed it would be a fair stopgap measure. Instead, he threatened to report me after addressing his concerns. He then kept on edit warring on the Sixth Coalition article. So I decided to warn him about edit warring on his talk page. When the user dismissed it all, I decided to submit this for administrative consideration. I apologize if i've formatted anything incorrectly, this is the first time in my ten years on wikipedia i've felt the need to go down this path. AvRand (talk) 13:30, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Because you admit you fabricated the citation, that should make it clear to you that you violated WP:BURDEN several times, and then tried to turn it around on me like I was being dishonest about what the book said and didn't say. There's really no defense for that, and the fact that you can't even admit you very clearly violated a non-negotiable site content policy multiple times and attempted to manipulate me and the admins in favor of some imagined "consensus" is itself extremely poor conduct. I'm not going to pretend my initial pair of less-than-helpful edit summaries gave you permission to do that. Remsense ‥ 论 13:34, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Frankly, you're the only one trying to pull the wool over anyone's eyes here. I was fully transparent with the citation. I don't fabricate anything. You can't bully users into submitting to your worldview through edit warring just because you're a more seasoned wikipedian. It's also worth noting he removed the Template AN3-notice page of content after he received the notice. AvRand (talk) 13:39, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

Editor was blocked for 1 week for WP:LOUTSOCK (they participated in contentious reversions while logged out, which was apparently an accident on their part.) On appeal, the 1-week block was kept in place by @CactusWriter due to the related issues of personal attack (calling people assholes), disruptive editing (I assume due to people's votes from RM discussions), and edit warring.
As soon as the 1-week block was lifted, the editor's first actions were to return to making the exact same undiscussed large amounts of content removal on Fiona and Tamara (name). The large amounts of removed content were restored and the editor again advised to reach consensus on the talk page before removing such large amounts of content. Instead of engaging on the talk page, the editor again removed the content from the two articles.
In a nutshell, editor's 1-week block is upheld for disruptive editing and edit warring (among other things), and the first actions they take after the block is lifted is to re-engage in the same contentious edits on the same pages. RachelTensions (talk) 21:51, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
- Let me correct your text:
- Editor was incorrectly blocked for 1 week for WP:LOUTSOCK (they participated in contentious reversions while logged out, which was apparently an accident on their part.)
On appeal, the 1-week block was kept in place by @CactusWriter due to the related issues of personal attack (calling one person asshole), disruptive editing (I assume due to removing people's votes from RM discussions), and edit warring.No administrator either accepted or rejected the appeal and it is still standing today if you go look into The Blue Rider's talk page.
- As soon as the 1-week block was lifted, the editor's first actions were to return to making the exact same
undiscussed large amounts of unsourced content removal on Fiona and Tamara (name). The large amounts of unsourced removed content were restored and the editor again advised to reach consensus on the talk page before removing such large amounts of unsourced content.Instead ofThe Blue Rider engagedingon the talk page, the editor again removed the content from the two articles.

- And don’t try to play the victim here. I’ve already provided the relevant policies to justify removing that unsourced, irrelevant, and indiscriminate disambiguation list from the article—it has no place on a page about a feminine given name.
- Now you’re running here, reporting me for edit warring, which sure, I’m doing it. But let me make something clear: if I get blocked for it, so will you. You seem to think you’re so right, but you’ve been edit warring across three different articles—Fiona, Tamara (name), and antisocial personality disorder. You’re not going to get off just by painting me as the “bad editor” here. If administrative action is taken, don’t kid yourself—you’re getting blocked too. Have fun. The Blue Rider 22:06, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
- I'll point out that the editor in question is also editing the content of other people's comments on this very page: they've edited the content of my report here. Not sure what needs to be done for them to get the clue that editing or removing other people's comments is not kosher. RachelTensions (talk) 22:20, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
- And now they're reverting my efforts to restore my comment to its original state before they edited it: [117] RachelTensions (talk) 22:33, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
- It should be noted that the above user is very purposely portraying misinformation about me on multiple occasions that I called people assholes that opposed the rename move, when in reality I called a single person asshole on a whole different page and the diff provided by Rachel clearly shows that it was in the singular and not plural.

In reply to the above unsigned comment: -
I did not go over the limit of 3 reverts on the page because I'm aware of the policies. I only added a fact with a precise statement that they were the author Acharya Yugbhushansuri's views, which was also verified by the source I had added, but it was reverted several times without discussion. When an editor is uncomfortable, they initiate the discussion. If I didn't, the other user also didn't and fully flouted the 3RR rule, but I didn't. The source I had added quoted the subject's most popular work and how it was rejected by the other sect in discussion. I am only involved in promoting addition of well-sourced information on pages related to Jainism. I do not promote any sectarian wars. If I have protected Digambara-related pages from vandalism, I have also protected Svetambara-related pages. I do not like the tone of the user who is trying to allege I've done something wrong when I'm well within my limits as the set policies bind me to. Please do not accuse me of something that I'm not involved in. Thank you. ParvatPrakash (talk) 20:13, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- Also, I just noticed that the user accusing me of edit-warring just changed the whole report that was against him to one that's against me, without filing a new one. This page's edit history shows it. I request the administrators to please take note of that. Thank you. ParvatPrakash (talk) 20:17, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- This report was changed by me erroneously. I note that currently it has been fixed by you. My apologies in this regard. Livingstonshr (talk) 20:55, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- I request you to understand that the issue has nothing to do with any sect at all. You made an edit in the history section and deleted certain contents and gave an angle of sect. It is you who gave sectarian reasons for your edits. I requested you to get consensus on talk page of Jainism as the information was present since a decade (not your user talk page) so that others could give their views but you continued with your biased editing. Livingstonshr (talk) 20:54, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- I did not delete anything from the section that was crucial to the essence of the text. I only deleted the verb "revered" because it made the statement non-neutral. Wikipedia is supposed to be free from hagiographic content, which is why I deleted that verb and corrected the sentence to prevent loss of information. Apart from that, I've only added content and haven't deleted anything that was crucial to the understanding of the subject. If you think I did, please point to specific parts from the section that I deleted. From what I remember, I only added content about Yugbhushansuri's and the other sects' views. Kindly understand that I did not bring sectarian mindset to this conversation. You accused me of being biased, so I refuted it by stating facts. I've reverted vandalism on pages like Pulaksagar as well as Sthulabhadra. There's nothing sectarian about my contribution to Wikipedia and I don't think this is the place to discuss that. This noticeboard is only meant to report users flouting the 3RR. ParvatPrakash (talk) 21:30, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

Comment:
The user was constantly edit warring. It deleted info from history section of Jainism page (a good article tagged) present since more than a decade ,and added sectarian and biased agenda driven content backed by unreliable sources. I requested to open a discussion on the talk page of Jainism and reach consensus multiple times in the edit comments, however it continued with edit war and stopped only after I initiated discussion on user talk page. However, he still appears to justify his actions and continues to push sect wars using phrases like Svetambara and Digambara are the only two historical sects which is highly erroneous, misleading and non-factual opinion. Although there was no mention of sect anywhere in said context, the user continues to make edits through his narrow lens of sect. As per his talk page, the user has been involved in sect wars in past. I request the administrators to take note of this and take appropriate action. In the disruptive edit made by him given in 4th link, the edit comment exposes his sectarian agenda backed by sources which literally state the opposite of the edit made. Apart from this, I would like to add that I mistakenly edited a previous report and I take the responsibility of it. I just checked that it has been corrected now.
Livingstonshr (talk) 20:46, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- With due respect, I would like to highlight this point again that this noticeboard is to report users who have flouted the 3RR i.e. more than 3 reverts on a page. I don't think it has anything to do with an editor's mindset being sectarian or not. Well, in my defence, I've made it a point to not revert edits more than 3 times on the page because I'm aware of the policies. Thanks! ParvatPrakash (talk) 21:23, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
Also, only to elucidate and highlight it for administrators examining this, the 4th diff given in this report is not a revert, but a plain edit backed by sources. ParvatPrakash (talk) 21:41, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- However, the sectarianism is ingrained in that edit comment. Would like the administrators to note that this isn't the case of edit war alone, the user was not making edits on technical grounds but out of pure lens of his/her sect. Would request the adminstrators to give attention to the comments of each and every edits made. The section simply states history of a notable figure without even any mention of the sect, however since it doesn't suit his sect's line, he chose to delete the information and continued edit warring. Livingstonshr (talk) 21:53, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- The mentioning of the sect was necessary because the section is about Jainism's history alone. Not all sects are recognized as sects of Jainism, even by themselves. However, now, I would like to leave it to the administrators to decide upon the course of action because this noticeboard is not meant for this discussion. I reiterate that I haven't gone over 3 edits on the said page and tried my best to explain my edits/reverts in their edit summary itself. Thank you. ParvatPrakash (talk) 22:04, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- The section simply mentions about prominent Jain figures in colonial period. There is no mention about his sect or any sect created after him. The section simply states some of Shrimad Rajchandra 's works and performances, and about him mentioned by Virchand Gandhi who represented Jainism in parliament of world religions. The sources you inserted initially & multiple times later had zero relation with the sectarian info you edited. Livingstonshr (talk) 22:32, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- If your POV differed from my edits, it is still not reason enough to flout the 3RR. ParvatPrakash (talk) 22:34, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- You can't simply pretend to be a victim of intolerance of POV, your edits were not in tune with the section and you knew very well that the sources had zero connection with your edits, still you kept pushing; and later tried to back it by personal opinions of somebody.

Comments:
He makes a bias statement about Lady Gaga's discography. He keeps writing "Disease" as the lead single of her upcoming "eighth" studio album. First of all, the news literally saying "LG7" and seventh studio album (which is also wrong btw since she only has 5 studio albums so far). Second, his assumption is also wrong because if he wants to include the collaboration album, then it should be "ninth" since she has 2 collaboration albums. This statement is wrong in so many ways. Making bias statement, and the bias statement is also misleading. Double mistakes! -GogoLion (talk) 05:20, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- First of all, this thread is for instances of making more than 3 reverts on a page within a span of 24 hours, which is not the case here as the linked edits of mine spanned across multiple days. Secondly, any warnings one gives about edit warring should be made before taking users here instead of after like you did. Third, the link of attempt to resolve is supposed to be on the article's talk page, you ended up linking to a diff on my own talk page. Fourth and finally, your accusation of bias is completely unfounded when my edits on count have nothing to do with personal taste or anything of the sort. You are correct about the informal label of "LG7" giving a wrong idea of count, so us Wikipedians should keep it out of pages when not the actual title and that is yet to be announced, but it's not for the reasons you gave. Don't mischaracterize me just because you don't agree with my changes, and this gives me the impression your report was done out of retaliation and spite. Either way, you overreacted here, plus shouting at me with all-caps in your edit summaries makes you sound aggressive and is completely unnecessary. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 13:55, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the 3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria. And frankly as I reviewed the report I thought you had reported them. Based on the clear battleground mentality demonstrated here along with the chronic edit warring, I might have blocked. So, Gogo, consider that a warning, especially given that you're CTOPS-aware.

Comments:
Despite long-standing consensus within the MMA project to use the website Sherdog as the source of fight endings (it's reference 151 at the bottom of the section), for precisely the reason that various media organizations interpret bout endings differently and changing from one source to another results in a lot of edit warring. This system has worked well, but seemingly not well enough for this user, who knows they're right and everyone else is wrong. I invited them to start a conversation on the project talk page, which they did, but they continue to revert the edit from the neutral version until we reach a consensus (again) Nswix (talk) 04:20, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- A long-standing consensus must be amended if and when it results in blatantly incorrect information that runs afoul of all other sources and common sense being routinely published, and vandals such as yourself reverting all edits that attempt to rectify the misinformation.
- When you sarcastically and rudely say "[this user(me)] knows they're right and everyone else is wrong" you are not being honest because you know very well--as I've mentioned it countless times by now--that ALL other sources--all media, independent governmental bodies, all fight organizations, all grappling outlets etc--without any exceptions agree with me and disagree with Sherdog in these instances. You can not 'brabo choke' an unclothed opponent. That's undisputable.
- Additionally I take issue with calling a version with blatant misinformation "neutral" unless it's being used in some Wiki-specific technical term manner.
- If and when all other sources (literally all other sources!) disagree with Sherdog it is obvious where the problem lies - as is the case here. No other source agrees that this is even possible (to brabo choke an unclothed opponent) nor that these specific instances have been brabo chokes (as they are impossible in these circumstances and there is an undisputed name for these chokes in the fighting community (D'Arce choke)).
- P.S. I've attempted to reference every single type of reputable source there is in these matters (who all agree bar the one some supposed guidelines supposedly insist on) and none have been deemed good enough by this clique of editors who lack the experience to even realize that they're causing blatantly obvious misinformation to be the status quo. Stosseled (talk) 05:35, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Stosseled: The way to amend a consensus is to get a new one through discussion, not edit warring. Being right or believing you're right does not confer you the right to edit war.--Jasper Deng (talk) 06:00, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- I think a check user might be of benefit here, as Stosseled's first edit for 18 months, and second in 2 years, was to come to my talk page. I suspect this is Justin.NEDOCHAN (talk) 09:18, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Looking at the ES, and this exact line of argument, I actually think it's this editor. NEDOCHAN (talk) 09:35, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Jasper. I give up. It's sad that the Wiki can be so clique-y and make it impossible for anyone to correct misinformation.
- Never mind the tens of thousands of sources proving me right. It's of the utmost importance to only use Sherdog even though Sherdog disagrees with all news media, independent governmental bodies regulating these sports, all the sports organizations, the organizers, and so on in these instances.. and even though no reputable grappling outlets agree with them.
- It's so much more important that this clique of editors don't have to think and evaluate a source's reliability and conformity.
- Bye-bye NEDOCHAN, Cassiopeia, and Nspwifdfb, have fun.
- P.S. NEDO the reason for that is because I was here in good faith, went through the edit logs to figure out what genius of grappling knowledge edited D'Arce to 'brabo choke' for a no-gi MMA fight, to tell them why it's silly and ask them to change it back wherever else they might have done this silly thing of putting the method of victory in a no-gi MMA fight to 'brabo choke'. I worry for you if your mind immediately starts coming up with conspiracies that I'm some ghost from the past.
- P.P.S Let me remind you all again that these are the guidelines - they say nothing of Sherdog except that they "may be useful" like the official website:
- "In the column Method, do not use your personal interpretation of a fight result in the record. Using a reliable source is important. The official website or Sherdog may be useful."
- Hiding some secret consensus somewhere (I still don't even know where) and relying on it to bash other users fighting misinformation is absolutely hilarious behavior. Stosseled (talk) 15:34, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

They have been blanking the content from this page and edit warring with other users like Ekdalian, even though many of the entries are sourced. I myself removed some entries which required self identification by the living people and adviced them to go selectively to remove only those entries which are based on falsified sources. But, they've resorted to mass content blanking as only solution. Also, when I put a first level warning on their page they retaliated by putting a warning on my page [210] violating WP:AGF and displaying WP: BATTLEGROUND attitude. Adamantine123 (talk) 07:18, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Those 3 reverts from me are from 3 days while the 3 reverts from Adamantine123 are from recent hours.[211][212][213] This is a case of incompetence at best because Adamantine 123 never ever edited this article before but has jumped to edit war by using misleading edit summaries such as "Nothing there in discussion section"[214] despite the discussion was there for days.[215] He also has repeatedly violated WP:NPA by terming the constructive edits by the other editors as "vandalism".[216][217] By poorly justifying only 2 entries, one by falsifying the source and another by using unreliable opinion piece, this editor is restoring a bloated list without any consensus. This is all right after he escaped a topic ban from caste topics and was warned by Valereee that such a battleground behavior can result in sanctions.[218] WP: BOOMERANG is in order.

Previously and recently reported to AN/3RR and blocked here. This appears to be a very persistent IP editor with the single purpose of edit warring over "Josip Broz Tito" and closely related articles, such as "Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia". The IP keeps changing, but this is a WP:DUCK. These two articles fall under WP:CT/EE and in my opinion need a permanent page protection. –Vipz (talk) 15:02, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

Comments:
Though not strictly violating 3RR, this user is clearly showing intent to continue reverting (e.g. explicitly saying they'd go against consensus, rejecting the 3RR warning) and has been edit warring in their preferred wording for quite some time now. They are discussing but also not stopping their editing of the article itself, so I'm requesting a partial block from editing the article. See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Disruptive editing by Robert92107 too, where the user has refused to engage. Jasper Deng (talk) 19:40, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Result: User:Robert92107 is warned for edit warring. They may be blocked if they revert the article again without getting a prior consensus for their change on the article talk page. EdJohnston (talk) 14:41, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
Factual correction -- This dispute is over a misleading/incorrect modifier for the current status of Phase 2. The WRONG word is "proposed". Correct words proposed are "planned" or "future" or even no word at all. Work has been done on Phase 2, and no additional proposal or permission is necessary to incorporate this into the plan. However, Phase 2 is currently unfunded. This is discussed at length in the Talk section. FACTUAL CORRECTNESS needs to be a priority, and the current modifier is a deliberately misleading description of the status of Phase 2. Robert92107 (talk) 06:14, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- @EdJohnston: I'm surprised you let them off with only a warning considering that's their attitude: they think being (allegedly) right gives them the right to edit war.--Jasper Deng (talk) 17:25, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

I have tried multiple times to get a consensus on the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Ice_hockey_rink page, and no effort. Keeps reverting any changes I make, to the "standards" he set for a ice hockey rink photo. I've reported before, but it wasn't 4 times. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, deleted the first report of this, and the ANEW notice on his user page. Brotherbenz (talk) 16:01, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

User keeps deleting "far-right" from Fascism article constantly. User was warned. Contentious topic. Please block. YBSOne (talk) 16:16, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Additionally user commented on the place of residence of another user as if it was "all you need to know about where his politics are.". YBSOne (talk) 16:19, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the 3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria. I can, however, say Mr. Spasm is to consider himself warned and should cease and desist from continuing to edit against clear consensus. As, despite expectations, the article does not presently fall within a contentious topic, I cannot even give him a CTOPS alert. Daniel Case (talk) 18:33, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- "Per a 1RR rule that was imposed in June, 2009, editors of Fascism are restricted to 1 revert per 24 hours. Violations of this restriction can be reported at WP:ANEW." YBSOne (talk) 22:59, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Unfortunately that 1RR may not be enforceable. An administrator enacted that 1RR in a discussion from 2009 at Talk:Fascism. There does not seem to be any community sanction or a WP:CTOP that would justify such a restriction. (A single administrator can't enact a 1RR on their own). The best you could do is refer to Talk:Fascism/FAQ to show there is an established consensus and then request admins to enforce that by blocks. EdJohnston (talk) 02:07, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks Ed. I would further add that any 1RR restriction, even imposed by the proper process, requires some sort of visible notice to be enforceable, and there isn't one above the edit window or on the talk page as there is with 1RRs imposed through CTOPS or CS.
- YBSOne did not mention this until now, after I had declined a report they made asserting purely a 3RR violation. There's a word for this .... laches, maybe? Daniel Case (talk) 05:05, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- I have reported edit warring as was per redirect WP:ANEW from the warning notice I've quoted. That warning notice is seen by every one editing Fascism, including the reported user, who ignored consensus 3 times. Not up to me to decide which type of edit war was it. YBSOne (talk) 08:34, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- In most cases where we've blocked people for 1RR violations, this was mentioned in the original report. I can't speak (or, really, write) for other admins, but I wouldn't be surprised, if like me they first review the article history. I didn't see the editnotice until looking at the edit window on the page just now, and really neither I nor any other admin reviewing a AN3 report would have a reason to edit the page in the process.
And in any case, like Ed I doubt a 15-year–old unilateral imposition by an admin is enforceable under our current policies. Daniel Case (talk) 04:35, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

- Also his third revert happened after the edit war warning from User:Firefangledfeathers. YBSOne (talk) 10:28, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- An interposing edit-war warning does not automatically make the next edit a violation if it's not the third one (unless, of course, someone has been doing this on multiple articles or in slow motion). Daniel Case (talk) 04:53, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- Daniel Case, we got two more reverts today (1, 2). Though it's ancient history, this user has been sanctioned twice in the past for edit warring and once for repeated removal. There hasn't been a 3RR violation, but this is persistent edit warring despite prior sanctions and present warnings. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 13:27, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

First edited as an IP with this diff: [250] Seems to have made an account after the first revert of content removal, and continued to remove the same content after account creation. Editor has no other contributions other than participation in this edit war. Editor advised to open discussion on talk page, and warned twice to no avail.

Comments:
User insists on adding original research to the article. Their edits would be interesting and helpful if they provided citations from citations from reliable sources. The one source they added appears to be from an Italian journal that does not confirm their claim. I have attempted to engage with editor on their talk page as well as the article's talk page, but they apparently refuse to discuss and compromise. CurryTime7-24 (talk) 20:24, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- It seems to me like they're disagreeing with your removal of sourced content. They mention it was copied from a different language Wiki, which matches you saying its a French report in your summary. They would be entitled to another revert yet before they actually breach 3RR, bringing the article back to its original state before you removed the content.
- It might be best to remove this report and take it to the talk. OXYLYPSE (talk) 20:56, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
- If you mean the "Rivista of Numismatica", there is no such periodical and it seems improbable that one would bear a name in Italian with an English preposition. The closest thing I could find is the Rivista italiana di numismatica e scienze affini, which does have a volume 6 published in 1893 as cited by 48f. However, upon looking up the source, which is available on Internet Archive, the cited quote was not available. I have attempted to engage them in the talk page, but they instead replied with insults at their own talk page, as well as mine. CurryTime7-24 (talk) 04:42, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- No problem with me, user OXYLYPSE: I am totally disgusted by the harassment done against me by this CurryTime to the point that I am no more going to collaborate with the en. wikipedia (as a form of protest). I have written some history books, that I have published in italian, spanish and english language and I have never received the offensive comments and attacks that this CurryTime have done to me. Sincerely, I am shocked by the way this CurryTime behave....and that is why I called him a "troublemaker" or in his spanish language (I think he is from Chile or has Chilean parents) a "buscapleito".

Bro The Man has performed many reverts at the Islam in Australia article. In the last 24 hours there were four, and Bro The Man has also continued to add more material in the face of multiple editors disputing the new changes because of neutral point of view policy. Bro The Man has removed well-sourced text portraying Muslims in a negative light, and has persistently added text portraying Muslims in a positive light.

- I was canvassed in by @Bro The Man once the edit warring had begun. Although I had followed the page following some early edits by this user, I was not involved in this content dispute. My comments have been deleted from their user page but can be found here and here. In summary I said they needed to use the article talk page to gain consensus for disputed edits. User @Binksternet brought the content dispute to the article talk page, which was met with multiple WP:WallofText comments and then a series of edits claiming that consensus had been reached. I saw no evidence of movement towards consensus.I stepped in today when the user claimed in an edit summary to be reverting edits but was in fact creating a new version. After that @Bro The Man re-added some good faith edits which I did not revert, but I reverted an edit which in my opinion repeated the same behavior. I believe this editor is sincere but needs to engage with the WP:Five Pillars, study what WP:Consensus means, and stop the battleground behavior. Oblivy (talk) 15:17, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- I appreciate your endorsement of sincerity, that's actually really great!
- I'm "using battle ground tactics"? You reverted the article way past the record of my first edit, after Binksternet and I stopped after two reverts. I didn't challenge it and moved on. That is when i rescued the additions of other editors and enforced the Nick-D consensus. It's those actions that Binksternet is using in this submission against me that we're discussing now.
- Consensus was "do not use the phraseology that islam came before christianity. That religion settled in Australia". I did not use that phraseology. However the article has pre-existing information about indigenous groups holding islamic beliefs through an exchange of religious ideas after an early contact event.
- I added citations from publications such as: The National Museum of Australia (Agency of AusGov), Australian Department of Immigration, and 2 radiocarbon isotope studies. One of which was retrieved from a muslim burial site in Australia.
- These were placed in the body. However you reverted them, and I since not returned them. I did open a discussion on your talk page to ask for clarification on your objection: User talk:Oblivy#Islam in Australia: You have Conducted 2 reverts: 3rr reminder

I rewrote the article, which previously contained separate statements and facts. I will continue to refine it in the future. The last amendment is a generalization of the range of political meetings held by the politician. All statements have a link to the media. Before that, there was information about only one meeting. User:Bexaendos prevents the development of the page, holds on to random wording and cancels the refined wording. He ignores the offer to proceed to a constructive discussion. Jenes (talk) 22:08, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- I have always been as much as possible benevolent with you, but already it seems that you are trying to fool the whole community. You have been notified countless times (to which it is obvious that you have a WP:COI on this article, including you have cleaned all available versions of this article).
- You say you are going to perfect this article, but let's tell the truth that other than whitewashing this article you do nothing.
The last change you have made is obviously removing well-referenced information and adding irrelevant information to the article, which generally has no place in the article. From the beginning I understood the strategy (because the editors who tried to clean up this article before you were less familiar with wikipedia). And after I blocked them you appeared in the article and in the same way try to clean up the article!
I avoid making any attacks by being polite until the end. Once the responsible team will deal with this case I will provide more details and explain. And until then I avoid to give you any more comments because I did until now but as we see it was pointless... Bexaendos (talk) 22:33, 31 October 2024 (UTC)- The page looked like a set of facts. I managed to put together an article from it. Some sentences are imperfect. This is what the statement about one political meeting looked like, which I refined and got a broader picture. For what reasons such wording causes your indignation, we could find out on the Talk-page, and does not bring the case to arbitration. Jenes (talk) 23:29, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- I only see 2 reverts, no edit war warning, and no new talk page discussion in almost 2 months, what's up with that? (Non-administrator comment) RachelTensions (talk) 22:34, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- That's right, I didn't play in further recoils. A suggestion for discussion is contained in the rollback comment. As you can see from Bexaendos comment, he deliberately ignores them. That is why we need an additional look at the situation. Jenes (talk) 23:12, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- No violation During a content dispute the talk page should be used, which has not happened here. If necessary dispute resolution can be used, but two reverts is not necessarily blockable activity, and does not appear to be so in this instance. See WP:BRD / WP:ONUS, and discuss these changes.

- User removed a large amount of sourced content, I reverted, and they kept reverting me instead of seeking consensus, furthermore they start harrassing me with bad-faith templates on my talk page threatning me that I will be blocked 1, 2, 3 and 4. I already asked them multiple times to seek consensus in the talk page and instead they do personal attacks to me, such as you have been showing a weak grasp of policies such as WP:NOR and WP:V and Please get a grip. Which shows that they do not plan to seek consensus and will likely continuing edit warring. The Blue Rider 16:27, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
My response is at Talk:Tamara (given name)#The Blue Rider's mass revert. On the talk page, as I was editing, I was describing some of my edits. Some of the other edits of more self-explanatory nature such as adding the sources which I listed on the talk page were described in edit summaries. I was doing research, adding sources, and making incremental edits to fix what was a thoroughly broken article. During this, without engaging in a discussion, which I had already started on the talk page, and which follows up on concerns and dilemmas about content from other editors, The Blue Rider would simply revert en masse, repeatedly, all of those edits, pointlessly hindering my progress with the article, and not providing any useful feedback, critique or meaningful substantive opposition. From my perspective, The Blue Rider for whatever reason began to like the article the way it is, uncritically, and they had even nominated it for GA even though it was in a truly dismal shape, and had not even been stable, and then began to exhibit WP:OWNERSHIP behavior through wp:Status quo stonewalling—Alalch E. 16:41, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- As further evidence of The Blue Rider's wish to impose their preferred version of the article, I cite how they falsely claimed that there was a consensus in the discussion involving their edit previously being contested Talk:Tamara (given name)#List of names removal, saying:
There is a clear consensus, most people who partook in the discussion supported the split.
But that was not a true statement. Soon afterwards, multiple editors made it clear to them that there had never been anything resembling such a consensus. —Alalch E. 16:44, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- The WP:OWNERSHIP's claim is definitely not true since I have achieved consensus and agreed with multiple other editors regarding their concerns with the article that can be seen in Tamara's talk page. All I am asking is for Alalch to discuss on the talk page their large removal of sourced content so we can achieve consensus. The Blue Rider 16:50, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- That is not what happened, and you seem unable to evaluate this matter objectively. After the following talk page sections: Talk:Tamara (given name)#Hindi origin and Talk:Tamara (given name)#Sanskrit origin were started by Altenmann, criticizing parts of the article which you had nominated for GA, you facetiously tried to brush off their absolutely valid concerns and made some very poor edits which you then gave up on, causing nothing but a waste of time of editors interested in improving that article. You now describe your withdrawal from such tendentious behavior as consensus on the talk page. This is why I told you to get a grip. —Alalch E. 16:57, 31 October 2024 (UTC) me
- I'll point out that both editors are currently pushing up against (but perhaps not specifically violating) the 3RR, and @The Blue Rider has previously been advised by @ToBeFree, after a related edit war unblock discussion, that it'd be best to pump the brakes on participating in name articles for their own good. Obviously they haven't taken that advice.Additionally, @Alalch E.'s large adjustments to the article have effectively short circuited what is another ongoing discussion by making such large adjustments to the article that all opposing viewpoints in that discussion have become irrelevant. RachelTensions (talk) 17:23, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- I don't agree with that. I was addressing problems with the prose independently from the question of the list, and they are inherently independent from the list inclusion question. The list thing can't hinder rectification of glaring core content policy compliance problems. —Alalch E. 17:30, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- The ongoing discussion concerns one specific question: whether or not the list of name-holders should be included in the article. There was consensus that it should be retained in the encyclopedia, in contrast to TheBlueRider's decision to just delete the long-standing list (introduced in Nov 2006), but there was not yet a consensus as to whether it should be a separate list or part of the name article.
- Quite separately from that discussion, Alalch E. has done stalwart work to improve the quality of the information about the name, which previously mingled information about "Tamara" and about "Tamar", used some unreliable-seeming sources, etc. TBR had previously said that it was hard to find WP:RS: Alalch found RS and improved the article, step by step, with edit summaries explaining each improvement. TBR then reverted 11 well-explained edits to his previous preferred version, with edit summary "seek consensus before removing sourced content, all sentences are cited and there is no OR". Alalch understandably reverted that reversion, and there was another to-and-fro pair of reverts. PamD 22:00, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- I don't agree that Alalch did stellar work, he mainly just removed sourced content, the vast majority of the current information on the Tamara page was written by me. The Blue Rider 22:25, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
- (Thanks for the ping; I'll let someone else handle this report though as I'd be interested in others' opinions. I didn't yet look at the conflict again so I really have none.) ~ ToBeFree (talk) 10:32, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the 3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria.

- I was undoing the edit warriors undiscussed changes. Slatersteven (talk) 13:22, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- This is true, but if I understand correctly, you have edit warred for the sole purpose of dealing with an edit war. Creating a report about it is fine, reverting once is fine, reverting three times without providing any reason other than "you are edit warring" is not. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:00, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Err, how could I create a report if I had not reverted them, would that not mean they would have in fact not breached 3RR, and thus edit warred their way to success? Slatersteven (talk) 14:06, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Slatersteven, I think Special:Diff/1254746752 is fine if you agree about Taagepera1997 being a more reliable source than larousse.fr, for example. You could say so in the edit summary, and especially if you already notice a conflict, create a section on the article's talk page like this:
==Greatest extent of the Second French colonial empire==
I think International Studies Quarterly ([https://doi.org/10.1111%2F0020-8833.00053]) is a more reliable source than larousse.fr for the greatest extent of the Second French colonial empire because … ~~~~
- You could then invite Kaloyan34-FR to the discussion using
{{Please see|Talk:List of largest empires}}
on their user talk page. - If they revert in response, WP:DISCFAIL contains further advice. I understand that edit warring can be a convenient method to escalate a situation to the point where a noticeboard report can be made, but that's not the point of the noticeboard, and you'll need to find a way to avoid edit warring yourself. I personally don't evaluate the three-revert rule and think reports about an edit war shouldn't be declined just because there have not been four reverts within 24 hours. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:29, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- So (In essence), ignore WP:ONUS and wp:brd)? And was I not the first to revert them, that is why they breached 3RR and I did not. They had been told by another user to take it to talk, and they decided not to (as I said in breach of policy). Sorry, but this seems to be to in fact reverse policy and put the onus on those objecting to an addition to make the case for exclusion. Slatersteven (talk) 14:38, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Slatersteven, BRD is not policy and there's no policy preferring the status quo over a new revision just because it is the status quo. WP:ONUS does not apply to a dispute where a number and a reference are changed; it would apply if the dispute was about the inclusion or exclusion of verifiable information, and it would prefer a revision where the disputed content isn't present. You can invoke "ONUS" when removing something, not when replacing it by other disputed content. I'm also not saying that the other editor's behavior was policy-compliant; I wouldn't have blocked if their behavior had been acceptable. All I am saying is that if you edit war for the sole purpose of dealing with an edit war, you contribute to the issue rather than fixing it and may be blocked for the same reasons as the other user. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 16:29, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

- Err, how could I create a report if I had not reverted them, would that not mean they would have in fact not breached 3RR, and thus edit warred their way to success? Slatersteven (talk) 14:06, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- This is true, but if I understand correctly, you have edit warred for the sole purpose of dealing with an edit war. Creating a report about it is fine, reverting once is fine, reverting three times without providing any reason other than "you are edit warring" is not. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:00, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

Comments:
User with at least two previous blocks for edit warring and displaying some serious ownership issues with the article. It started with an unexplained revert. Then the editor started to give out some dubious reasons in his second revert such as not liking the new edit and also not wanting to engage with unregistered users. Since the litigious sentence is unsourced to begin with, I have decided to simply remove it to attempt to find a middle ground. But even that wasn't enough for the edit warrior, who performed two more reverts to restore his preferred version (and unsourced content) . And the editor in question is attempting to justify his broken of 3RR with reasons that don't even fall in the Exemptions category. The editor clearly has no desire to stop his edit war and obviously hasn't learned from his previous blocks. . 76.65.74.178 (talk) 17:43, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Blocked – for a period of 60 hours Not the first time I've blocked this user, so that factors into the longer time. I have accounted for the 5 hours taken off the previous block as well. Issues with sourcing must be resolved on the talk page, not in edit summaries. I am also not very impressed with a) telling the user to use an edit summary nearly an hour and a half after they had done exactly that, b) telling them "when you're ready to become a registered user, we can talk", an attitude very contrary to the spirit of Wikipedia, for which the IP justifiably rebuked Rev and c) claiming "protecting the page from your disruptiveness" as a reason for continued reversion when this clearly does not come under the limited exceptions enumerated at 3RRNO.
At the same time I should warn the IP they are not blameless here, even if I chose not to sanction them. Your edit summaries—accusing Rev of ownership, reminding them of their previous blocks while telling them they had broken 3RR before they actually had (something that only happened on the last edit)—could easily support an impression that you weren't ever assuming good faith here, and inevitably when that happens a battleground mentality such as we see in the edit history results. Think about that next time, registration or not. Daniel Case (talk) 18:37, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

Violation of 3RR several times over. Little to no effort to use talk pages to reach consensus despite multiple warnings. Other editors are also involved in this edit war who did not appear to make good faith attempts to communicate, but Evafancy38 seems to be where the edit war started. LaffyTaffer (talk) 19:20, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- I think could be important to note that this is the exact same manner of editing — repeatedly attempting to reclassify identities as Igbo subgroups without any consensus or discussion — that led to the blocking of another user last week. Watercheetah99 (talk) 22:00, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, I hadn't noticed that there was an SPI open on this user until after I posted this report. LaffyTaffer (talk) 22:04, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

The user has a history of baiting people into edit wars and then playing the victim, was warned for it then (linked to the ANI discussion on their talk page).
