    Welcome to the edit warring noticeboard Shortcuts Update this page

    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 {{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.
    Definition of edit warring
    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.
    Definition of the three-revert rule (3RR)
    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.

    Twinkle's ARV can be used on the user's page to more easily report their behavior, including automatic handling of diffs.

    User:Zer0faults reported by User:Mr. Tibbs (result: stale)

    Three revert rule violation on Iraq War (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Zer0faults (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    Reported by: Mr. Tibbs 21:48, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: Not sure if reverting to different prior versions all count towards one 3RR or not. -- Mr. Tibbs 21:48, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

    Not all of these are reverts if you view them you will see that sometimes only the 2nd paragraph was changed. Mr. Tibbs has constantly reverted my work wholesale. He did this again today after me and Anoranza came to a concensus on what should be in the overview. He then removed the work me and that user did and the concensus we came to. He also didn't even post anything on talk and just reverted again without stating a why. He calls it "cleaning up the intro" when he removes all mention of anything but WMD's from the Iraq War intro. He even goes onto use this for a summary "Revert to last version by Mr. Tibbs. Its not a consensus just because Zero says it is. See poll." The poll in question is one User:CBDunkerson informed him was not addressing the concerns of those opposing his edits. He asked for User:CBDunkerson view after the mediation cabal I requested went against his view here The person who took no the mediation went on to comment on the page that Mr. Tibbs should not exclude any reason but WMD's. He asked CBDunkerson and he said the same. He went on to ask User:Nescio to comment he also supported the same. Some of those edits are me and Anoranza trying to find a middleground and Mr. Tibbs is attempting to use them against me, however Anoranza did not complain cause in the end the version we agreed on was pleasing to both of us. Mr. Tibbs has stated on numerous times he has ceased assuming good faith, has told me I attempting a filibuster when told his survey did not meet the requirements of Misplaced Pages:Straw Polls. If you see the talk page he has refused any middleground I have offered almost as if he has sole domain of the article. You can even view 3 offers on the mediation page alone that were all refused wholesale. Mr. Tibbs indiscriminate reverts of my work and Anoranza's and User:Wombdpsw is horrible. I ask this article receive admin attention as User:CBDunkerson has stepped back as its a heated topic. I simply want more then WMD's mentioned in the overview as permitted by NPOV:Undue Weight, and I feel someone should look at Mr. Tibbs reverts as he doesn't even offer explanations, when asked. He has left snide remarks on summaries including "No one needs to pander to a filibuster.", on the Template: War on Terrorism page here He has even gone on to advocate other revert my work instead of just editing such as here User_talk:Añoranza#About_Iraq_War. This is obviously a bad faith notice as he has tried before and we both got blocked. --Zer0faults 22:35, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
    Some of these aren't even reverts, they are me editing me, as in the case of "Revert #6" and "Revert #5" as the user being shown in #5 did not make the edits its showing I changed, I previously made them. #4 is the original expansion of the 2nd paragraph from Anoranza's which was lacking in facts. Even revert #1 is wrong as its me removing a paragraph that is entirely mentioned below in its exact contents in section "War Rationale" This is obviously a bad faith effort as Mr. Tibbs has not even attempted to review the evidence he brings, simply tagged all my edits as reverts and hoped the High number 7RR would be sufficient enough. I once again ask for an admins assistance in the Iraq War article as I am afraid Mr. Tibbs is attempting to insert Undue Weight. --Zer0faults 22:57, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

    User:Miskin

    Three revert rule violation on Ancient Macedonians (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Miskin (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    Nationalist revert warrior; four reverts in 17 minutes is enough. Reported by:Septentrionalis 23:45, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

    • Funny - see only three reverts. This is not a revert, it's a first time edit. You also have three reverts, so you're just as bad as him. I'd also like to ask some admins to comment on Septentrionalis's personal attacks (the one just above) and this. --Telex 23:49, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
    • It's not sourced. You're taking the original and fitting it into your WP:OR interpretation of it. --Telex 00:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Despite what he says, there are only 2 reverts, a rewrite and some minor edits. Pmanderson on the other hand has 3 reverts and a clear personal attack . I'm not going to discuss the content dispute here, it's clearly not the right place. Miskin 00:03, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
      • If admins are going to take into account a description of vandalism as vandalism, they should also take account of Miskin's personal threats and trolling . Septentrionalis 15:26, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Guys, take it elsewhere. Sept, you're wrong about: 3RR, your PA's, and Miskin's "threats", plus your "trolling" quote is quite funny. Get yourself together and let's discuss this where appropriate. This happenning here is trolling and borders WP:POINT as well. Consider this a warning. Indeed, extreme measures can apply to such behavior, as described in WP policies and guidelines...  NikoSilver  15:54, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

    User:DreamGuy reported by User:Centauri

    Three revert rule violation on Spring Heeled Jack (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). DreamGuy (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    Reported by: Centauri 12:41, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: Consistently aggressive deletion of random article content by DreamGuy, without reference to talk page discussion, and accompanied by misleading edit summaries that also refer to other editors in strongly abusive terms.

    I self-reverted my own last edit, so not a real 3RR violation, per the policy. I should also note that User:Centauri's claims of misleading edit summaries are false, as I explained my edits accurately. In fact, this editor is making abusive ridiculous threats against me at the moment, pulling policies out of a hat at random he claims I have violated (you know, the typical, vandalism, blah blah blah). From his edit comments and posts on my talk page, it's clear he's not really trying to give friendly warnings about policies he understands and follows, but is instead hoping to toss out accusations in an attempt to bully me. I have warned him to not post on my talk page any more, but he continues to harass me there. A block might be in order if he keeps this up. DreamGuy 13:08, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
    Comment. I have posted a comment and 3RR warning on the talk page of User:Centauri, who is probably not aware that he has himself reverted DreamGuy's talkpage 5 times in a few hours (when he adds new "warnings", he usually restores all the old ones, making these edits reverts). Now that I have explained this to him, I reckon he ought to be blocked iff he should continue his reposting pattern. Also, Centauri, instead of posting a storm of policy links to an experienced user (which is itself incivil), you had much better follow the common sense principle of walking away, when it has been clearly demonstrated that your messages on a user talk page aren't wanted there. After all, as Theresa Knott said once, DreamGuy removing the messages shows that he has read them; what more do you want? Bishonen | talk 14:19, 30 May 2006 (UTC).


    User:Ed Poor reported by User:ScienceApologist

    Three revert rule violation on Intelligent_design (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Ed_Poor (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    • Previous version reverted to: a number of different versions he wrote over the day.
    • 1st revert: 07:52
    • 2nd revert: 07:58
    • 3rd revert: 08:52
    • 4th revert: 09:24
    • 5th revert: 09:32

    Reported by: ScienceApologist 16:37, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: User:Ed Poor seems to be back to his tendentious editting ways and is effectively reverting all editors who stand in his way. Ed is engaging in what the WP:3RR page describes as "making other changes at the same time, continually undoing other editors' work counts as reverting. "Complex partial reverts" refer to reverts that remove or re-add only some of the disputed material while adding new material at the same time; this is often done in an effort to disguise the reverting. This type of edit counts toward 3RR." When warned about this, the user responded on his talkpage admitting to breaking 3RR.

    User:71.109.235.81 reported by User:Ohnoitsjamie

    Comments: As evidenced on the talk page of this article, this particular edit has been an ongoing issue, and does not represent the consensus. I'd previously placed a 3RR warning on the article's talk page. OhNoitsJamie 20:49, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

    Reported by: Timothy Usher 08:04, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: Besides the talk page shenanigans, this user has been edit-warring on the article, after posting an RfC and having all but one responding editors disagree with the unencyclopedic links he's been appending thereto. He has also supported his own edits and comments under the username User:Kecik. User has already been blocked several times for WP:3RR violations and puppetry.Timothy Usher 08:04, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: First of all this is not the article mainspace. The 3RR rule does not apply here. This is a dipute about the title of a heading in the talk page. I only corrected it to reflect the issue of consensus and the fautly math that it reported. The 3RR rule does not apply for correcting formatting issues and accuracy on talk pages as far as I am aware. Also, note that one of these I self-reverted when I realized he actually wrote somthing as opposed to simply restoring the incorrect math: http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Talk%3AGod&diff=56088897&oldid=56088816 Timothy's other comments are not true. Kecik has not been blocked many times. He is a good user and he is not my socketpuppet as a user check has already been done which confirmed no connection. So, no block "for puppetry" has ever been issued. Timothy is simply not telling the truth. Also, Timothy has persisted in being uncivil and making personal attacks against myself and this user, besides edit warring. The links I added are valid links for the external link section and topical.Giovanni33 08:15, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    The 7:2 count was, and remains, accurate.

    I look at at it and I may be wrong on this account so I removed that claim. But everything else stands. Your math was wrong. I counted 6 vs 4 so the ratio is 3:2, not 7:2.Giovanni33 08:32, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
    Giovanni33, please stop altering prior comments, whether other editors', or your own after other editors have respondended thereto.Timothy Usher 08:45, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    Result: Blocked for 3 hours because it is a Talk page. However, the Three revert rule says "undoing the actions of another editor or other editors in whole or part". If I may suggest, you folks could post your versions at Talk and try to convince others without altering posts by other editors. Thanks. ←Humus sapiens 08:51, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    Comment When Timothy says that User has already been blocked several times for 3RR and puppetry, he is presumably not referring to Kecik, but to Giovanni, who was proved by checkuser to be using the account BelindaGong for extra reverts, extra votes, and extra support for his version. His block was extended when he accidentally signed a post while forgetting that he was logged on as Freethinker99, who had joined, had said he was new but agreed with Giovanni, and had then reverted to Giovanni's version while Giovanni was blocked for his BelindaGong puppetry. Through some oversight, the BelindaGong and Freethinker99 accounts were only given temporary blocks, although the standard practice is to block indefinitely in the case of established puppetry. So Timothy is telling the truth. As for Kecik, he has, from the start, behaved as a puppet whose only purpose at Misplaced Pages was to provide extra support and extra reverts for Giovanni. His seventh edit (one day after registering) was a vote for something Giovanni wanted, at a page he was unlikely to have found by chance. He was at Misplaced Pages for nearly four months before he touched an article where Giovanni wasn't looking for support. He currently has 42 article edits, 37 of which are reverts to Giovanni's version. Checkuser can only establish that it's not the same IP; it can't establish that there's no connection between the users. There is extremely strong linguistic evidence linking Giovanni to eight accounts which have supported him. AnnH ♫ 11:38, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    Comment As expected AnnH and Timothy tag-team with the personal attacks against me with their continued false allegations my alleged socket-puppets. I just take it as a sign of the weakness of their stance that they have to resort to bringing up this issue over and over no matter how old it gets or how irrelevant it is to a given issue. But, notice how AnnH can interpret what Timothy actually said so to conclude that he Timothy is telling the truth when he is not. He states things as a fact that are only negative bad-faith speculation, which I know is not true. Belinda, as I explained is my wife, and so that is why a user checked showed a connection. Since she is different person which I offered to prove many time (her name even is Belinda Gong), this makes her not a socketpuppet. I note that no one has taken me up on my questions about ohw to prove what Im saying is true. I think they know she is not a socketpuppet but prefer not to have this shown so the attacks can continue. This is assuming bad faith. Also, with my friend Freethinker, AnnH continues her deliberate distortion of known facts, even after I corrected her on numerous occasions, each time with a new twist. Notice her bad faith assumptions which don't make sense. She says I forgot I was using Freethiner's account and forgot to sign in with my own account while I was blocked. That is nonsense. I was at my friend's house to introduced him to Misplaced Pages and he was trying to resolve the dispute on the talk page of Christianity, and did NOT simply revert to my version. Like Belinda, Freethiner is a different person, and I only used his account to respond to a question on my own talk page. When I was questioned about any connection to Freethinker, I had nothing to hide and admitted it openly. Why would I do that if it was a socketpuppet? Why would I edit on my own talk page as myself if i were using his accounts after a userchecked was done showing a connection with me and my wife (only one). This is why it would make no sense to think he is my own socketpuppet, while I use his account to answering on my own page-- even if I logged-out of his account, and signed into my own. Its not logical. AnnH also leaves out some pertinent information. For example, the fact that Kecik and MikaM (and anyone else who supported my POV on the Christinaity page, including Sophia), were all user checked at the same time. The results? Only BelindaGong showed a connection to me. Ofcourse, BelindaGong is a separate person who lives with me. And while I never denied any connection to her (no one asked), it's true I did not want it to be known for various reasons, and I pretended to not know her in my interactions. However, even though I tried to hide a connection, the user checked exposed it. It did not expose MikaM or Kecik. Why? They were all checked at the same time. One would logically expect that if they were my puppets they would have also been discovered along with Belinda, who I did not want it known I was connected to in some way. Since my desire to have this connection hidden failed, then so would any others who were checked at the same time. Why would I use different methods at the same time? The edits occur both both users and myself not only at different times and at the same time that I edit, proving its not me going to different locations was argued. Lastly, with these editors, while I do agree support my POV, this is not proof they are not separate people, or have any connection to me in real life. Infact, I have discovered we do not always agree, either, and we do not edit all the same articles, nor to they come to my assistence at times you'd think I want to use them if I were the puppet master. In anycase, I have never had any socketpuppets, and for Timothy and AnnH to keep making this charge on talk pages, on noticeboard, and anywhere I post, stating their belief as it it were an established fact is both wrong and disruptive, esp. suspect given their POV conflicts with me, although I have to assume good faith. Laslty, I note that AnnH brings up the issue of a perm block for these users when they already left Misplaced Pages on their own accord about half a year ago, after the uncivil and insulting treatment they recieved at her hands, calling Freethinker a "meatpuppet" and blocking him without any warning. And, Belinda, I still can't convince to come back until she is able to prove herself as a real, distinct individual, who AnnH denied is even possible (despite my wiling to fax ID's. etc). I guess that some people still think that women who are married are not allowed a separate existence apart from their husband's.Giovanni33 12:56, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: I have not included several reverts by Ed that could be understood to be vandalism reverts or minor reverts with community approval (restoring innocuous sections lost in the edit war). Ed was warned about 3RR, but accused us of "baiting" him. He then proceeded to continue the edit war today, and is on the edge of a second 3RR violation today. Please note that it is difficult to tell exactly which of his edits are reverts, as he tends to add modifications to his reverts, and reverts to various versions, not always the same one. The reverts listed should be sufficient to establish the fact of the 3RR violation, however. --Ashenai 19:29, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    That was a nasty edit war, with many individuals (debatably) in violation of 3RR. The article has now been protected, and as blocking is a preventitive measure rather than a punitive one, I don't see a need to block for this offense. AmiDaniel (talk) 02:49, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: A stubborn and unregistered user keeps making a minor edit so that this article says that the town of Royton is within the seperate and neighbouring town of Oldham - it is not, Royton is in the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham (see the respective articles for verification). The motive of this kind of edit is unclear, but it just isn't factual and encyclopedic! I've tried to make this aware to them and also warned this user about the 3RR here. I believe a temporary block is appropriate here along with some kind of warning which should hopefully in turn halt this.... vandalism! Thank you, Jhamez84 21:20, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    Not a 3RR violation. You only list three reverts (and that's all that has been done), not the four required for a violation. Additionally, the three reverts span 44 hours, thus are not confined within the 24 hours for a 3RR violation. --Yamla 21:25, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

    • User keeps removing sock puppeteer tag. Paul Cyr 00:51, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
      • I'm a little confused here as there are no accounts in Category:Suspected Misplaced Pages sockpuppets of Pantherarosa. I agree that he reverted in excess of three times, but I question if placing the tag on his userpage was perhaps, as he claims, baseless. At the same time, those tags should only be removed if they are in bad-faith. Let me go scan WP:ANI, as you said there was relevant discussion there, and see if I can get to the bottom of it. AmiDaniel (talk) 01:02, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
        • Ah, sorry for the confusion. The categories were recently renamed due to some consensus at some vote thing, the page is here: . The blocked puppet was here: User:Abdulrahman Jaffer Al Zadjali. Although the blocking admin did not have enough evidence to publically accuse Pantherarosa, it is self evident. Basically, both accounts were created in the midst of my dispute with Pantherarosa which began attacking me, with Abdulrahman Jaffer Al Zadjali posting supportive messages on Pantherarosa's talk page. At the very least, there is enough evidence for Pantherarosa to be suspected of being a puppeteer. As for the discussion on AN/I, it was more a sub-discussion of a larger issue: . Right now I've been trying to get some admin involvement given Pantherarosa's actions, but it wound up on AN/I because of conduct by the admin on WP:PAIN which I feel was inappropriate. In the mean time, Pantherarosa has been reverting the tags even after I refered him/her to the discussion on AN/I. Paul Cyr 02:24, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
          • User:Abdulrahman Jaffer Al Zadjali has been blocked as a sockpuppet, but the blocking admin stated he would not speculate to whom the sockpuppet belonged. Contact the admin who blocked the puppet and ask him to add the tags to User:Pantherarosa, or you can request a CheckUser; but until an admin or a CheckUser confirms him as a sockpuppet master, I'd say it best not to tag his account. Making a couple of edits as an IP does not really count as sockpuppetry, at least not in my mind. I'm not going to administer any blocks or place blame anywhere--please just leave his userpage alone for now until you have sufficient evidence to support your claim. If you'd like to continue this discussion, please do so on my talk page, so as not to clog up the 3RR noticeboard. Thanks. AmiDaniel (talk) 02:45, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
            • I understand your point, however, you said At the same time, those tags should only be removed if they are in bad-faith., since you are not blocking Pantherarosa for violating 3RR, do you feel that me placing the tag was in bad faith? Paul Cyr 02:48, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
              • I don't believe they were placed in bad-faith (otherwise I would be blocking you), but rather that there was a severe lack of communication. You believed it correct to tag his account as a puppet master believing you had sufficient proof, and he disagreed with your reasoning and reverted, believing your actions to be in bad-faith. In either case neither of you was attempting to be disruptive in my opinion. I'm also not saying that I disagree with your reasoning for believing him to be guilty of sockpuppetry, just saying there isn't conclusive proof either way as of yet, and blocking on these grounds would just add more fuel to the fire. If you would like for me to file a CheckUser for you, I'd be glad to, and if that turns up positive, then there will be no problem tagging his userpage and blocking him if he reverts the change.

    I normally just ignore personal attacks directed at me, especially by blocked users: taking action normally just fuels the attacks, and if I ignore them when they can only edit their talk page, it normally frustrates them more! Perhaps checkuser to establish the link between For_Great_Justice and For_Great_Justice. ?
