This page is for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule.

• See this guide for instructions on creating diffs for this report.
• If you see that a user may be about to violate the three-revert rule, consider warning them by placing {{subst:uw-3rr}} on their user talk page.

You must notify any user you have reported.

You may use {{subst:An3-notice}} ~~~~ to do so.

You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

Additional notes

• When reporting a user here, your own behavior will also be scrutinized. Be sure you understand WP:REVERT and the definitions below first.
• The format and contents of a 3RR/1RR report are important, use the "Click here to create a new report" button below to have a report template with the necessary fields to work from.
• Possible alternatives to filing here are dispute resolution, or a request for page protection.
• Violations of other restrictions, like WP:1RR violations, may also be brought here. Your report should include two reverts that occurred within a 24-hour period, and a link to where the 1RR restriction was imposed.

I Do Not Understand What Is Happening re John C Cremony article

I recently posted my first major revision to an article, on John C. Cremony. I found that within seconds my corrections were deleted and the old article reinserted. Thinking that I might not have posted my revision, I reposted it, only to have my post again immediately deleted. This has happened three times I am mystified as to how my post could be repeatedly deleted within seconds of posting. I quoted Cremony's book s directly, and do not think that the person who wrote the original article and deleted mine has ever seen a copy of this book. . It is true that my post was much more critical of Cremony, and perhaps this is not allowed. I had just finished reading "Life Among the Apaches" and was astounded by the misrepresentation of it on the site, so I quoted the book directly. I was not trying to start a quarrel. If upon reading my posts and those it replaced, if you think I am in any way in error, please notify me. I have tried posting a note to the "talk" section, but it seems unreadable when I try to access it. Thank you for your help. I am learning the ropes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LosAngeles08 (talk • contribs)

Your complaint is malformed for this noticeboard. What you are looking for is the Misplaced Pages:Neutral point of view/Noticeboard where you will likely find very little support for your version of the article, where Cremony is described as a genocidal racist Indian hater. Binksternet (talk) 03:03, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

• No violation The user is now discussing their edits on the article talk page , and other users have explained OR, NPOV, etc. (including, in my case, in response to an email from them). Nobody has breached WP:3RR. I don't think any further action is necessary.  Chzz  ►  05:01, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

• Result: Protected three days. Both editors are warned to seek consensus after protection expires. Freshacconci removed a 3RR warning from his own talk page with an edit summary calling it 'vandalism'. If you want to bring complaints here you should try to behave well yourself.

Comments:

Israel and Nazi Germany comparisons, like all articles related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, broadly construed, is subject to a one-revert rule. That means an editor may make only one revert during any 24-hour period. Please see WP:ARBPIA#Further remedies for more information.

Please note that there is a large white edit notice that appears above the edit box on this page: Template:Editnotices/Page/Israel and Nazi Germany comparisons

Comments:

The user reverted Malik Shabazz. I reverted the user's obviously POV edits. The user then reverted me, violating the rule governing Palestine-Israel articles. The user then asked me why I "hate Jews," which, for the record, I do not. The user is now claiming to know he is violating policy and says that removing antisemitism, even though nobody has been antisemitic, "trumps...Misplaced Pages regulations." That, to me, constitutes vandalism, which ought to give Malik or me the go-ahead to break the 1RR once Whoneful is blocked. But I'm sure someone disagrees with that conclusion, so I won't revert again until I get permission from an admin. Silvercitychristmasisland (talk) 22:52, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

This is banned user Grawp, aka JarlaxleArtemis (talk · contribs). Immediate indef no-talkpage-or-email block please.Jasper Deng (talk) 22:53, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Do edits from a banned user and known vandal constitute "blatant vandalism?" I admit I'm looking to break 1RR and not get blocked, especially since Whoneful's edits are so awful. Silvercitychristmasisland (talk) 22:59, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Never mind, the revert has been done. There ought to be a 1RR exception to situations like this. Silvercitychristmasisland (talk) 23:00, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

There is. The edits of banned users = pure vandalism, and as such are exempt from all revert limitations. Reaper Eternal (talk) 23:04, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Editor has reverted multiple times against multiple editors, has gone to the talk page but has not stopped reverting. Dayewalker (talk) 03:30, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

I've reverted, issued a 3RR warning, and responded on the article talk page, but that's about as far as I'm interested in getting involved. InExcelsisDeo is clearly in good faith but sorely misguided as to the level of plot detail warranted in an article and how to handle being reverted. --IllaZilla (talk) 03:39, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

• Page protected

Though InExcelsisDeo's reasoning/response that one of the editors is an "attack page" doesn't exactly show WP:AGF.

The page is protected for 2 days. I would urge InExcelsisDeo to review WP:FILMPLOT as well as WP:MOSFILM and actually engage in a discussion on the talk page instead of using it to ask for his edits to be left in peace. They may also want to take a second look at WP:EW and WP:BRD.

This editor has repeatedly added an unsourced allegation of a conviction for a sexual offence to this BLP. S/he relies on an article in Hebrew, which s/he apparently does not understand, but I do. The article does not make this allegation, nor any similar claim. This is an extremely serious matter, and the editor should not be allowed to add such defamatory claims without reliable evidence. RolandR (talk) 12:23, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

• Result: Protected two weeks per WP:BLP. I reverted to the last version that I thought was properly referenced. We should not be including information about serious criminal violations based only on the word of the Google Translator, based on a Hebrew original. Use the talk page to reach consensus. People who know Hebrew should give a direct quote of what they think the source is saying, in English. Even the supposed reference to prove he had a relationship with an Irish politician does not include his last name. Is this credible evidence? EdJohnston (talk) 13:28, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
