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.

User being reported: The Transhumanist (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

I have never seen anything like this.

• Transhumanist moved the page "Intellectual property" to "Intellectual property rights"
• He then created a stub over the redirect at "Intellectual Property"
• I reverted back to the plain redirect on the "Intellectual property" page
  • and I requested discussion on the "Intellectual property Rights" page
• Transhumanist restored the stub he had created at "Intellectual property"
• I again restored the redirect at "Intellectual property" with an edit note "you are doing a huge re-arrangement WITHOUT DISCUSSION. please stop and discuss. thank you"
  • I placed a 3RR template on his Talk page in this dif
  • I again attempted to engage on Talk on the Intellectual property rights page in this dif
• Transhumanist again restored the stub
  • Transhumanist made two declarations on the Talk page of his new Intellectual property article Talk:Intellectual_property saying that his new article has to go through AfD
  • Transhumanist finally replied on the Intellectual property rights Talk page here - again very declarative. No discussion.

Comments:

I appreciate boldness, but this goes beyond Bold, to non-consensus-oriented arrogance. Please restore things to how they were and block Transhumanist for a few days to teach him to work toward consensus. Thank you. Jytdog (talk) 04:23, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

Jytdog is overreacting and extremely impatient. I've already told him I'll be happy to delete the changes myself if I can't make an article he's happy with. You can't get more cooperative than that. Basically, there are 2 distinct topics, intellectual property and intellectual property rights. Both are notable subjects worthy of an article. I'm working on the intellectual property article. It should have some substantial content very soon. I could build a decent article in a day or two, but we should be able to tell if there is enough good material in a few hours. If he doesn't like it at that time, I'll be happy to arrange to have it speedied (per creator). The Transhumanist 04:49, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

You may be right that there are two separate topics and therefore the need for two separate articles, but your move was undiscussed, and therefore there was no consensus for you to make the move. As a disputed move, you should restore the status quo ante and work on your stub in your user space until it is ready for prime time, and then open a discussion and get consensus for there to be two articles on the topic(s). BMK (talk) 05:56, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

This is not a content issue, it is a behavior issue. It is complete violation of WP:MOVE and well as edit warring. yes. Jytdog (talk) 06:06, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

BMK, thank you for the clarification and suggestion. There is consensus to leave the article in place on talk:Intellectual property rights, as someone else besides me has commented there. But, since Jytdog very much wants to talk it out first, we should at least see what he has to say. I've moved the page to draft space, and have placed a speedy tag there to make way for the move reversion. The Transhumanist 07:08, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

Transhumanist has undone everything, but still does not seem to understand WP:MOVE. Hopefully there will be no more need for trips to drama boards. Withdrawn. Jytdog (talk) 08:16, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

Jytdog, what are you referring to? Please point out the specific action (diff link) that completely violated WP:MOVE. I wish to understand exactly what you are talking about. Thank you. The Transhumanist 02:21, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

This is closed. I'll discuss it on your Talk page. Jytdog (talk) 02:26, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Result: Intellectual property has been move protected until such time as consensus is reached to move the page. Transhumanist self-reverted his move so no further action is needed. EdJohnston (talk) 18:05, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

• Result: Warned for long-term edit warring. User:Ramiericson appears to be a supporter of the cause of Mufaddal Saifuddin. There is a succession controversy which is documented in an entire article at 53rd Syedna succession controversy (Dawoodi Bohra). Revert warring to declare your guy to be the winner is POV-pushing and disruptive editing. The next time Ramiericson makes a unilateral edit in favor of Mufaddai Saifuddin, without getting consensus first, he may be blocked without further notice. Since Ramiericson is already alerted under WP:ARBIPA he may be banned from the topic of the Dawoodi Bohra by any administrator if he shows himself unable to edit neutrally.

Edit warring

--107.15.41.141 (talk) 22:01, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

This article is subject to tons and tons and tons of fan speculation. I've also been gamed into this by a banned user trying to get me blocked. Also of note is that this IP left me a threat that had to be oversighted. This should be shut down and the article semi-protected (as I have requested multiple times to end the vandalism and unsourced edits) so established editors can work on it properly.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 23:57, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

First edit is a revert, this is reverting a banned user which is an exemption to 3RR, part of this is also reverting a banned user which is exempt from 3RR, a revert, a revert, this is not a revert at all but a rewrite, this is also not a revert at all but another rewrite, another exemption from 3RR, partial self-revert to reinclude content that was removed in prior edit that is not a revert anyway, probably a revert but I went to the talk page. There was no "attempt to resolve on the article talk page" as the edit brought up is an edit summary made by a banned user's sockpuppet so this whole thing should be thrown out. 107.15.41.141 is an IP operated by a Gamergate troll who is trying to get me banned through any means necessary.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:02, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

First, a minor point. The IP's edits were rev/del'd, not oversighted. Second, who is the banned user?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:07, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Fine, revdel. The Israeli IPs (the 31 ones) I believe belong to user:Wiki-star/User:Dragonron who just reverts me for the sake of reverting me rather than any actual interest in the topic seeing as he reverted me on completely unrelated pages.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:11, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

To be clear, I've reported the IPs because of the reverts to items that were not Five Nights at Freddy's 2 but checkuser isn't going to solve anything with that new evidence.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:13, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I believe he's referencing this sockpuppet investigation. He's concluded the investigation on his own apparently, allowing him to exceed 3RR. Even discounting the reverts of the alleged banned user, I believe he's still exceeded 3RR. Ryulong, can you please clarify what you mean by "probably a revert but I went to the talk page" -- I see don't see recent contributions by you to the talk page. And please keep your comments civil. -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 00:22, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I went to the user talk page of Spidervenom123 to leave him a message telling him that his edits are unwarranted because I left him an identical message 5 months ago regarding the other game.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:28, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Now he's apparently followed me to unrelated pages to revert my comments in a discussion he was not involved in?? 107.15.41.141 (talk) 00:26, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

That was trolling on your half, plain and simple, just as you've done across the project.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:28, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I can't see the point in continuing this conversation beyond argument for argument sake; admins (or whoever reviews these requests) you have my evidence, if you have further questions I will attempt to address them. -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 00:33, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

How is this attempt at being a strawman "SJW" not trolling?—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:36, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Recommend review of IP's contributons. There's very few 'main space' edits & mostly drama. WP:NOTHERE, might be considered. GoodDay (talk) 00:38, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, because no one in good faith notifies every editor I've reverted in the past 24 hours of this thread , (there are others but the IP made the pages new so there's no diff).—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:04, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I'm not familiar with procedure in these proceedings, I was not involved in the edit war so I thought it relevant to notify the involved editors. Ryulong went to each of these user's pages and removed my notification. He appears to be "following" me around wikipedia and reverting my edits, is this permitted? Please advise. -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 03:17, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

There's no reason to notify anyone else about this.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:20, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I do not often participate in discussions on this board but I have two observations. Ryulong is being baited and Ryulong should know how to not take the bait. Chillum 03:24, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Chillum, I agree 100%. The question is, what are we going to do? Block for edit warring which seems to have happened? (But I'll want Bbb23 to confirm.) Block the IP for dramah mongering even though they've made a few valid article edits? Drmies (talk) 03:27, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
• Well then get rid of the fisherman because he keeps blowing up my notifications when he restores his invalid messages across the project. I'm obviously being baited but I have to respond to this shit so I don't get blocked for being baited in the first place. Half of the edits hes pointed out are not reverts. Then others are exempt from 3RR.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:27, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
• Admins, can you please advise on this issue: Ryulong has reverted my notification on these users' talk pages multiple times. In addition, he reverted my removal of his "instructions" from my own talk page. Is this permitted? -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 03:31, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

  Every time you do it I get notified because you've linked to my talk page and I asked you to stop but you clearly haven't. You are the definition of WP:NOTHERE.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:32, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

  Everyone doesn't have to be notified - only the user being reported. Further, his removal of any "warnings" and such on his talk page is an acknowledgement that he's gotten the message and he has the right to remove them. Dusti 03:34, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

You misunderstand, he removed the notifications I placed on OTHER users' talk pages, multiple times. In addition, he reverted my removal of HIS notification on MY talk page. I hope that clarifies. Is this permitted? -- 03:35, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Ryulong, that was foolish. I have blocked you for three hours on the minor matter of edit warring on the IP's talk page (a clear-cut case, where you disregarded their request you stay the hell away) and the notifications. That there may be no requirement that they notify other involved parties doesn't mean that they can't--frankly, I'm surprised that you'd make such a big deal out of something like that, but that's what EW is often about. Chillum, Bbb23, your advice on the larger matter is appreciated. Drmies (talk) 03:37, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Is there any objection to me restoring these notices and reverting my talk page? -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 03:40, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

For the record I have blocked this IP. The recent contributions from this IP show a bad faith and successful attempt at disruption and little to no effort to create an encyclopedia. As always my talk page is open for discussion. Chillum 03:43, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Well, another admin beat me to it: yes, after the latest edits I was going over there for a NOTHERE block. Thanks Chillum. Drmies (talk) 03:44, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Given recent history I think it is a rotating IP who is reoccurring as such I used a short block. I am watching the IP though and if the same person resumes I will increase the next block. Chillum 03:47, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Sorry everyone, but I was busy doing bad things, you know like eating dinner, watching a movie, terrible things like that. Looks like you sorted it all out. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 05:30, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:
Moonsell is edit warring with 2 editors. Moonsell has serious ownership issues with this article going back a long time. This is problematic, since this user does not understand proper sourcing at all. In the first diff, you can see he replaced an academic book with these 2 websites: Link 1 and Link 2. Also this user continually proclaims his personal knowledge as correct. Thus there are WP:VNT issues as well. Lastly, he does not understand WP:BRD.VictoriaGrayson 04:08, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Yep. And the editor is inserting what appears to be personal OR and it is incomprehensible. I recommend protecting this version of the article until the sourcing and WP:OR issues can be addressed. Montanabw 04:20, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Please consider this in the light of the contribution histories of the people involved and in the light of the breakdown of collaboration over recent months on the talk page. Moonsell (talk) 04:34, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Page: Sangram Singh (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This editor is edit-warring on Sangram Singh and has now violated WP:3RR on suspicion that he is reverting copyright violations, I see it as mere content dispute, the information being removed which I personally favour. He claims it is copy-pasted from the source but the source is reliable and the info can easily be rewritten and redacted, not a legitimate excuse for blanking.

94.197.46.68 (talk) 18:53, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I was just in the process of reporting this IP at WP:ANI for repeated violations of copyright. If the IP wants to rewrite the content, he/she can - but we DO NOT include copyright-violating content in artices, ever.

It should be noted that this IP appears to have followed me from the Vivek Murthy article, where I had reverted the addition of an image clearly copied without attribution, and in violation of copyright, from the Washington Times. ] — Preceding unsigned comment added by AndyTheGrump (talk • contribs)

For closing admin: bottom line: 3RR has been violated and at the time of my post, the defendant has not self-reverted and this is compelling evidence of edit-warring in that the accused has no intention of standing back. --94.197.46.68 (talk) 19:07, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

The IP clearly posted here to harass Andy and cares little about copyright violations. --NeilN 19:07, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Two things, if the witness testifying for the accused has any proof of the allegation then may he take it to the appropriate project page, otherwise if he has evidence that 3RR has not been violated then may he present that here. Thank you. --94.197.46.68 (talk) 19:09, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Fact: the material in the Sangram Singh article was copy-pasted from the sources cited, in violation of copyright. Fact: removals of copyright violations are exempt from WP:3RR. Fact: repeated violations of copyright aren't exempt... AndyTheGrump (talk) 19:13, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

All right then, where is the evidence that it is a copyvio? 94.197.46.68 (talk) 19:16, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

If you actually checked the links, you'd see that text was copied from linked pages. --NeilN 19:20, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

The IP has continued to insert the image into the Vivek Murthy article, despite the warning template on the image page (both on Misplaced Pages and Commons ) Since it seems apparent that this IP has no intention of complying with policy, I suggest a substantial block is called for. AndyTheGrump (talk) 19:21, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Result: Submitter blocked 5 days for copyright violations. The photo of Vivek Murthy was published in the Washington Times and there is no evidence that it has been made free for our use. Regarding the IP's statement, "the info can easily be rewritten and redacted". That is not how copyright is handled here. The material should not even go into the edit history if it's copyrighted text. EdJohnston (talk) 19:44, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Previous version reverted to:

In my previous complaint, anonymous IPs were reverting the Hi-5 section "reasons for leaving", which the RFC discussion had agreed to remove and incorporate into the History section since the former section was unsourced and not appropriate for the band members section. Since then the article was submitted for RPP and protected for some days.

A contributor has been actively working with the new section, however, today, decided that they wanted the original "reasons for leaving" section back and has restored the article to that state.

I have attempted to remove the section again but the user has reverted multiple times and I have reached my limit on how to enforce this.

As a long time fan, having seen the band dying in the 80s and following the last 4 years of hard team work to reclaim a good reputation, seeing such a lack of respect for a team for a lonely ex band member in this way, I am frankly appalled. Since Misplaced Pages has always been a point of reference for everyone, I believe that if Mr Tarnhall has got something to say this should not mean deleting 4 years of history for his personal revenge and changes of mind. People are interested in The Danse Society and not in his personal ventures, I believe. I hope this explains the reasons for my report. ps: I apologise for struggling with the structure of this report. Thank you.

• BTW, Egghead06 (talk · contribs) is almost as guilty here -- there's no plausible BLP exception there. That editor hasn't exceeded 3RR, but there's no reason to get to 3R. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 16:36, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Blocked 24 hours. Long-term warring since 1 December; adding badly sourced information to a BLP article. Though some of the data is scarcely defamatory (his height, and membership in the Italia Running Club) it can't be found in the cited sources. The following comment suggests unawareness of our BLP sourcing rules: "Stop reverting my edits, i have referenced everything possible however some information can not be referenced due to the only person in the world to know this information is me(the person and creator of this page". These issues have been explained at Talk:Jacob Bragg but the editor won't listen. User:Egghead06 is warned to limit himself to 3RR since WP:3RRNO may not apply.

Comments:

Uncalled for, we are discussing things on the Talk page. Nyytend has been going through and making lots of changes, some fine, some not. I had zero intention of bringing him here and am surprised by this. The edit warring notice elsewhere is not relevant to this discussion. So no warning. Nyytend please withdraw this or we are both liable to be blocked. Jytdog (talk) 17:51, 9 December 2014 (UTC) Difs by Nyytend:

• removes sourced content that was valid per WP:PSCI
• dif removing established, sourced content
• again remove sourced, to the point content
• removes content again
• there is more but that is plenty. Jytdog (talk) 18:03, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

There's a major difference between simply removing content and actively reverting someone. 3RR applies to situations when you hit the undo button or actively restore something someone else removed; that happened five times here, and only one of them (Jytdog's final diff) was done by me. Nyttend (talk) 18:08, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Jytdog's been doing this quite actively, and has been trolling discussions trying to get users who question his edits banned as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.87.120.162 (talk) 18:12, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

I learned of this incident from a report at WP:ANI (section "Tag-team / organized abuse by User:Elaqueate and User:Guerillero to WP:OWN Vani Hari") by an IP who was clearly the same person as this IP. Time for a rangeblock. Nyttend (talk) 18:21, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

note - user above is a sock that has now been blocked here - was writing personal attacks at Talk:Vani Hari that I was removing per WP:TPG. Jytdog (talk) 21:02, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

From a quick look it seems that both User:Jytdog and User:Nyttend may be edit warring. My proposal is that both Jytdog and Nyttend make a voluntary agreement to not edit the article again for five days. That would save 3RR admins the effort to scrutinize all these diffs and apply the exact letter of the law as to whether 3RR has been violated. There seems to be an active discussion on Talk. The IP comments just above appear to be from a sock from the 66.87.* range who has just been dealt with at ANI. EdJohnston (talk) 18:32, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

How have I been edit-warring? I've done a lot of rearranging, including cutting some bits as linked above, but they were there before I came along; I would have done them all at once if I'd felt like it. Significantly different from repeatedly hitting the "undo" button. Nyttend (talk) 18:37, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

It looks to me that Jytdog made reverts at 15:00, 15:02, 15:04, 15:29, 15:49, 15:51 and 17:25. Nyttend, you are the only other person editing during this time period. Do you believe that *he* is reverting while all you are doing are normal edits? Per WP:EW, "a revert means undoing the actions of other editors", and isn't limited only to the Undo button. EdJohnston (talk) 18:53, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Yes, it's quite possible. Imagine that you find an article, and you go around making edits to it. Someone else comes along and hits the "undo" button to revert a bunch of the edits you've made: if that happens enough times, the other guy has broken the three-revert rule, regardless of whether you have. Note that my first diff wasn't the Undo button ("add deleted criticism where it belongs"), but it was a revert anyway. I could give you a much more detailed explanation if requested, but a simple check of the page history will demonstrate that I wasn't going around removing his additions, restoring his removals, or putting back his modifications. I would appreciate knowing precisely which edits involve actual reversion: you have the one re-removing the surgeon, and this because I thought he accidentally removed more than intended in a previous edit (as far as I can tell, Jytdog didn't disagree), but that's all. Nyttend (talk) 19:26, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

As I mentioned there is a certain "ick" factor for me to getting hauled to 3RR without warning, and in my view Nyttend and I were having a reasonably good and civil communication going on both Talk and in edit notes. I was not unhappy with Nyttend's editing and only provided diffs for leverage in this discussion, to be frank. I am sorry that Nyttend found my behavior to violate the spirit and letter of EDITWAR. I am not emotionally invested in it in terms of the work I do here, and have my hands full with articles I care about (not to mention the haters in peanut gallery sandwiching this discussion.) I would be happy to walk away from the Vani Hari article and unwatch it, and accept any warning given. Would be happier to keep my hand in but the last thing I need is another admin's ire. Acceptable? Jytdog (talk) 20:58, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

• Comment - Jytdog has been edit-warring on multiple pages including Oseltamivir and Vani Hari. He is trying to add links to self-published blogs and it's time for an administrator to take action against Jytdog's advocacy for these pseudoscientific publications -A1candidate (talk) 18:55, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
• Comment – Nyttend's bulk deletions here are far from consensus (see the extensive talk: coverage) Jytdog is merely the editor who got to them first. This is far from the sort of edit-warring deserving sanction (even on Nyttend's part). Andy Dingley (talk) 20:45, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

• Result: The Vani Hari article has been protected 24 hours by User:Fluffernutter. If anyone thinks that Jytdog's edits on the Oseltamivir article amount to edit warring, file a regular 3RR report on that article and supply diffs. If a new war breaks out at Vani Hari when protection expires the next admin might decide that blocks are needed. EdJohnston (talk) 21:21, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

The edit history shows that from 11 September 2014‎ there have been 27 edits to the page 25 of those have involved user:Hughey of which only two have not been reverts of reverts made by four other editors' reverting Hughey's edits.

user:Hughey behaviour does not seem to have altered one jot in response to the a previous block because of edit warring on this page. Since the block ended Hughey has made five reverts of three other editor revering Hughey's reverts. Discussion by Hughey on the talk page has been restricted to one comment "The definition of indenture is as contract, these people agreed to nothing. There must be an agreement on both sides to claim indenture, therefore no indenture is implied in this case" -- which contains no explanation based on policy or reliable sources for the reverts. -- PBS (talk) 01:26, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

User:PBS is taking the edits on said page far too personally. I believe that user and at least one other (User:Pinkbeast)are claiming ownership in violation of WP:Owner (multiple editors) policy. If said users are to continue to block me from good faith edits I request that something be done. When any other Editor is involved I have not had issues.Hughey (talk) 15:47, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

• Hughey, your next logical block would be for one week. The last block was in mid-November for 31 hours by User:Bbb23 for long-term warring on this article, and this report shows you continuing the same pattern. You may be able to avoid a block if you will promise to wait for a clear consensus on the talk page before making any further change to the article. EdJohnston (talk) 18:07, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

(sorry, I didn't notice Ed had answered two minutes earlier. Not trying to over-rule or anything) --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:16, 10 December 2014 (UTC) @Hughey:: I wouldn't be surprised if another admin saw this and just blocked you for 72 hours or something, but I'm curious and would rather ask a question instead: if two or three people feel one way about something, and one person feels another way, are we supposed to go with the lone person's opinion, because WP:OWN? You say your edit should stick because it was made in good faith; are you saying PBS and Pinkbeast (and at least one other editor whose name I've already forgotten) aren't? You're warning other people that they'll be blocked for edit warring if they revert your edit again; does our edit warring policy apply to them but not you? That seems to be what you're saying. Look, there's a disagreement. Therefore, instead of turning it into a test of will, or patience, you need to discuss it and come to some kind of consensus before changing it again. I'm not going to block you right now, but you should know that if you revert to your prefered version again, before getting consensus to do so, I'll block you for two months. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
