    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.

    Comments:

    • This anon refuses to give up his quest to use BCE at Julius Caesar. He claims he made consensus at the Talk page but just made unconclusive statements.
    hasn't been warned, so im going to go ahead and do that. no block unless it continues. --heah 00:26, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    User:82.156.33.151 reported by User:aLii 22:59, 13 August 2006 (UTC) (result:24 hours)

    Three revert rule violation on Kenny Dalglish (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). 82.156.33.151 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    Comments: This user was warned about their behaviour for the first time on the 5th August. After over a week of this, I'm finally reporting them for the first time. aLii 22:59, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

    24 hours for the anon, and 24 for you as well, alii--you too have broken 3rr, and this edit war is entirely between the two of you from what i can tell. --heah 00:35, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    User:68.43.120.176 reported by Rootology:Rootology (Result:Warning)

    Three revert rule violation on Kevin Barrett (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). 68.43.120.176 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    Comments:Violation of 3RR

    User keeps reinserting info that has been removed by myself and another editor. rootology (T) 17:02, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    User has been warned/RV'd again by another editor, but continues doing it. rootology (T) 17:05, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    I do not feel that the user has been warned sufficiently (one comment in an edit summary is not enough for someone who may be unfamiliar with Misplaced Pages). I will give a final warning, noting that one revert within the next 24 hours would be sufficient for a blocking. Robdurbar 18:26, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    Thank you. rootology (T) 18:32, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    User:Subhash_bose reported by User:BhaiSaab (Result:24 hour block)

    Three revert rule violation on 2002 Gujarat violence/2006 revision (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Subhash_bose (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    Three revert rule violation on Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    Time report made: 19:52, 14 August 2006 (UTC)


    Comments: User has been blocked for 3rr before and is aware of the rule. BhaiSaab 19:52, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    Comment - Above user never warned Subhash_bose of violation. He made only three reverts, BhaiSaab only wishes to discredit Subhash_bose.Bakaman Bakatalk 20:42, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    I don't think a notification is required - there's nothing on this page that states that. BhaiSaab 20:51, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    CommentMisplaced Pages policy states prior notification for 15 hrs so that the alleged 3RR violator has the opportunity to undo his revert. Plus, I've been counting my reverts and they're less than three. The first case was an edit, not a revert. It is not even equivalent to a revert.Netaji 20:56, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    Where exactly does wikipedia policy state that? You're already aware of 3rr. BhaiSaab 20:59, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    Issue with first revert - The first revert is not even a revert.Bakaman Bakatalk 20:59, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    I inserted that material; he removed it, in effect partially undoing my edit, which according to WP:3rr is a revert. BhaiSaab 21:01, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    The first revert is an 'edit made by netaji not a revert. Bakaman Bakatalk 21:03, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    Having looked at the history, I can count at least 4 partial reverts from Subhash_bose on the Gurjat violence page, and at least 4 from BhaiSaab on the other page. 24hour block for Subhash_bose, who has been blocked before, and 8 hours for User BhaiSaab. Please work together to avoid edit wars. Robdurbar 22:21, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    Note from User:Bcorr

    I have protected the page User:Subhash bose (a.k.a. Netaji) due to an edit war over a sockpuppet notce.

    User:BhaiSaab reported by User:Netaji (Result:8 hour block)

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

    • Previous version reverted to:
    • 1st revert:
    • 2nd revert:
    • 3rd revert:
    • 4th revert:

    Time report made: 21:15, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: The 1st and 2nd diffs are reverts, but the 3rd and 4th are not. The 4th revert (which is somewhat misleading and should be showing this diff I presume) isn't a diff but a comparison of two versions which Bakaman made two edits in between. BhaiSaab 21:22, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    I hope this has nothing to do with making more noise. BhaiSaab 21:30, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    User blocked as a result of investigations into this from his/her report into a 3RR violation on this page. First offence, eight hours. Robdurbar 22:29, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    User:Abe.Froman reported by User:Mutant Zero (Result:Each user blocked for 12 hours)

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

    Time report made: 21:28, 14 August 2006 (UTC) +

    User has been explained the difference between serving in the military and having the legal classification of a Veteran. It is his assumption that she is a Veteran. While no one is disputing the fact that she served in the military, that alone is not proof that she is a Veteran. There are many legal qualifications that she must meet before she is given that status. Serving in the military is just one of those qualifications, and is not the only qualification. No one has found a source, reliable or otherwise, which gives her legal status of a Veteran. We must remove this blurb of information until we do have a reliable source. Misplaced Pages is for facts, not assumptions or opinions.

    User is well aware of the 3RR. It does not appear that he is interested in discussion, and will continue to revert edits.

    Reverting vandalism does not fall under 3RR. See the talk page of the article Mutant Zero and his sockpuppets were defacing. Have a look at Mutant Zero's love notes to me on my User Talk Page as well. Abe Froman 22:07, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    I admit, the kid got me upset, but what he's not mentioning is that I removed that comment myself just minutes later once I cooled down. As a Veteran I have a vested interest in educating people on what makes someone a Veteran. Removing unverifiable claims that this woman is a Veteran is not vandalism. It's keeping Misplaced Pages free from assumptions and unverified facts. Mutant Zero 22:28, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    An admin has since rewritten & reinserted the content users such as Mutant Zero . were repeatedly removing. This 3RR complaint does not fall under 3RR because reversion of vandalism is not covered under 3RR. Abe Froman 22:36, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
    Blocked both users for 12 hours for 3RR vios. --Woohookitty 10:42, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

    User:Setanta747 reported by Djegan (Result:Warning; then 12h)

    Three revert rule violation on Northern Ireland (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Setanta747 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    Time report made: 22:04, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: Discussion was ongoing but user keeps reverting and not supplying a request for WP:VERIFY and WP:NOR. Issues discussed on talk page and consensus was arrived at. The reported editor has contributed on wikipedia some time and should be aware of this policy.

      • Now on his fifth edit.

    Djegan 22:04, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

    First offence. As user has not been blocked before and has had a long history of contributions to Misplaced Pages, a warning is sufficient. Please, both disucss this on the talk page.Robdurbar 19:25, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

    Well, he had his warning, and now has a block William M. Connolley 22:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

    • User is a sysop, sould know. Also had a prior 3RR report in July.


    Time report made: 08:03, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: User does not understand the fact that removing the tag causes disruption to hundreds of pages, user also a sysop and making block threats towards me! Matthew Fenton (Talk | Contribs) 08:03, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

    MatthewFenton is staging a one-man revert war to force his color functionality into that article, including reverting four times 24 hours and 7 minutes and edit warring using popups. He's ignored all suggestions that he not insert this code into the template, to the point where he counted comments that said "No, please stop doing this" as "Support" votes, then cited that vote tally as a reason that he should be able to ignore all criticism of his lousy color idea.

    Users ed g2s (talk · contribs), Combination (talk · contribs), myself, and freakofnurture (talk · contribs) have all removed this code from the template, whereas the only ones to insert it are Fenton and a relatively new user named Insanity13 (talk · contribs).

    I may have violated the 3RR, but who is carrying out a revert war here? - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 08:26, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

    You dont seem to realise this var. is being used, you removing it causes disruption. If you plan on removing all instances go ahead. But it should be left there till THEN! The concensous seems to all be support at the moment. Matthew Fenton (Talk | Contribs) 08:40, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
    Both of you guys know better. Talk about things on the talk page and iron things out. No need for blocks here -- Samir धर्म 12:41, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

    User:Marky48 reported by User:JulesH (Result:8hour block)

    (and additionally, after I placed a warning on User talk:Marky48 and responded to his belief that he hadn't by providing the above 4 links )

    • 23:40, 14 Aug
    • 02:41, 15 Aug (admittedly this only counts as a 3RR violation by 1 minute, but still... two violations in less than a day)

    Three revert rule warning diff from before this report was filed here (if applicable) :

    Additional notes:

    • An additional warning was given on an earlier occasion by User:Mavarin (diff), so he should have been aware of the rule.
    • Warnings placed on User talk:Marky48 were subsequently deleted, following the brief addition of a personal attack.
    • A warning about removing warnings was subsequently removed along with the 3RR warning.

    Comments: This user is a stalker and has harassed me over the said article for months. I've asked for help removing his repeated attacks from Will Beback who knows about it. Three in one day is my understanding of this rule. I reverted on two separate days.Marky48 11:41, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

    You have had plenty of chances to read this policy and have been told that it is no more than three times in twenty four hours. As it is your first offence, but not your first warning, a block is appropriate. --Robdurbar 19:29, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

    Is it just me? I do not see any differences in the diffs provided. Also, warning was given after last revert, according to timestamps? -- Avi 15:53, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
    No, there aren't any differences, thus proving that they are indeed pure reverts. My understanding is that this is the point of the diffs - am I mistaken? Jakew 16:25, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
    You are supposed to show what has changed, meaning the actual reversion from what was, to what is, so we can see what was changed. For example: http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/3RR#User:Kingdom_hearts_lll_reported_by_User:Pentasyllabic_.28Result:24_hour_block.29 Also, it should be in chronological order, but that isn't such a big deal. -- Avi 16:28, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

    • No warning given, user is aware of 3RR and has broken it purposefully on earlier occasions ().

    Time report made: 22:06, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

    Comments:

    Complex reverts; constant reverted element across all four instances is the re-insertion of the phrase "Albanian-speaking Greek settlers" instead of "Albanian settlers" in the first sentence of the "History" section (a hotly contentious POV detail discussed on talk page). Otherwise various additions and re-insertions into a text that was substantially rewritten in the meantime by other users. Deucalionite had previously inserted the same phrase and some other changes 7 times within 10 days in a slow edit-war below the 3RR threshold (3 Aug, 5 Aug, 8 Aug, 9 Aug, 11 Aug, 12 Aug, 12 Aug). User has announced that he will continue to revert irrespective of other editors' opinions (). Was earlier blocked for 48 hours as a repeat offender in a similar case, revert-warring over a similar topic, on Souliotes. Fut.Perf. ☼ 22:06, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

    May I speak freely in my defense? Future Perfect does not realize (after explaining to him in the discussion page; see "False Judgments" section) that I engaged in the "slow edit-war" (without breaking 3RR of course) in order to help speed up the process in seeing corrections made to the Arvanites history section. Though such actions may be seen as questionable, I was only focused on trying to stimulate anyone capable of refining the article that was in dire need of revisions. Future Perfect, indeed, did a fine job making the corrections in the history section.
    Yes, I am aware of 3RR. However, Future Perfect does not want to admit that I did not revert the article three times in one day. Also, I did not say exactly that I would disregard other editors' statements. In fact, I explicitly stated the following: "I will continue to make any necessary additions to the article irrespective if you (or Aldux or Telex) revert the article continuously." Aldux, Future Perfect, and Telex kept reverting my sourced edits and really did not provide much encouragement for me to discuss what I provided since they were "set in their ways." I felt that discussing about what I contributed would have been largely ignored and so I actively placed my sourced contributions on the article in the hopes that they would be noticed by other users who would take the evidence I provided into consideration.
    Also, I do care about what other editors have to contribute. Case in point, I never reverted the major corrections Future Perfect made to the history section. I made some changes to the section after Future Perfect placed his significant edits. Moreover, Future Perfect's critiques (see "Deucalionite's proposals") of some of my edits did not go unnoticed by me. To an extent, I improved upon the mistakes I made so as to provide readers with sourced and comprehensible text. Though the improvements upon my mistakes might not seem like much, they are an indication that I do acknowlegde criticism (though I'd much prefer constructive criticism).
    I do not think that I should be banned this time since I did not revert the article three times in one day. It would be unfair to anyone if users were banned because they were marginalized while struggling to make an article better. Though the phrases I had to re-insert were the same and were deemed as POV, I still did not violate 3RR and all of the statements I provided in the article were sourced.
    I await honorably for my punishment anyway, but I'd much prefer not to be banned for the reasons stated above. Thank you and I hope you understand where I am coming from. Deucalionite 00:11, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
    I acknowledge that much in Deucalionite's changes at first constituted a good-faith attempt at improving an article which was in dire need of revision; that in his later re-statements of his edits he made some attempts at constructively taking certain criticism into account; and that he tried to deal constructively with my rewrite proposal. However, the continued insertion of the contentious "Albanian-speaking Greek" phrase still constitutes a controversial revert, which he knowingly upheld against strong talkpage objections, and technically it was done exactly four times within 24 hours as the diffs show. Fut.Perf. ☼ 08:59, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

    Time report made: 11:47, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: The reversions are slightly different to evade 3RR and game the system, but they all amount to inserting OR tags or commenting out a widely accepted section, which is absolutely against the consensus on the talk page and have all been reverted by many other people. This is a long-time user with many archives of his talk page, not a new user or anon, so I assumed a warning was unnecessary. Deuterium 11:47, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

    It seems to me that Netscott was attempting to remove unverified claims from Misplaced Pages, which break WP:V in his opinion. This would not be a violation of 3RR. I just looked at the claims myself, and I am personally not convinced that this is a "widely accepted section". I think that the best solution is not to block Netscott, but to resolve this issue on the talk page (using protection of the page if the edit warring continues). jaco♫plane 15:44, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
    This individual has tried to cite 5 diffs by citing the 1st diff twice. What we have here is two indepedent reverts. The last two diffs cover different parts of the section of content. These edits were done towards meeting neutral point of view and to avoid original research. For the article to blanket refer to the given content as exemplary of "islamophobia" without citing a source stating as much puts Misplaced Pages out of neutrality for Misplaced Pages becomes the entity describing the information as demonstrative of "islamophobia".

    This is a page with many reverts from many users. It seems that none have broken the 3RR as of now, but that many have come close. --Robdurbar 22:00, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

    No I'm afraid you don't understand the concept of a "revert" - See WP:3RR. It says "undoing the actions of another editor or other editors in whole or part", which Netscott hsa clearly done at least 4 times within a 24 hour time frame. I'm changing this to open because you have failed to properly address this. Deuterium 00:34, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
    Thank you of informing me of what policy I am aware of. However, can I sugest that if you have a complaint about my actions, taking it directly elsewhere on the administrator's noticeboard, rather than reverting (ironic under the circumstances) my edits. Or alternativedly, questioning me on my justifications, rather than presuming that I don't understand policy?
    In my opinion, by commenting out the original research, Nescott had avoided reverting your edits - he had not undone your work or actions, merely sidelined it until he, or the community as a whole, could be convinced that it wasn't original research. By not removing the content, the editor was not 'undoing the actions' of anybody. I did not interpret these as reverts. --Robdurbar 20:39, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
    That's ridiculous, many others had specifically removed the OR tag because it obviously wasn't OR and Netscott repeatedly put it back in. So, according to you people can revert as much as long as they are adding tags or commenting out material?
    Secondly, by referring to the material as original research you are obviously taking a side in this debate, which places your actions and motivations under suspicion.
    PS I'm relisting this on the 3RR noticeboard, because it was an obvious violation. Deuterium 23:20, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

He was warned by another user about prohibitions against OR on Wiki.

    First of all, this diff shows where 69.197.208.3 admits to being the same user as 64.231.199.31. 69.197.208.3 says as I said before "We can only quote them about what they ACTUALLY DID to confirm that they accept the obvious truth...". 64.231.199.31 is the one who made that quote, here.

    At that point, I warned the user. This is an OLDID, not a diff, because it was the first post on his user page: 17:19, August 16, 2006

    The user's IP then changed, but he admitted (as shown above) that they were the same user. Another anon, User:65.190.135.228, came by and completely removed the disputed paragraph, stating that "The source is not correctly summarized":

    69.197.208.3 then came in and inserted a revised paragraph:

    This may or may not be a revert. User:Jonearles then removed the revised paragraph, stating that "The paragraph still doesn't accurately summarize the source." 69.197.208.3 reverted:

    This is a definite revert, the 6th within 24 hours, after being warned about the 3RR. Note that these last edits come with summaries stating that the user is editing in accordance with the talk page. This implies consensus, when in fact he simply stated "this is what I'm going to do" and then posted it.

    The truth of the matter - This is merely a farce to get Subash (whose viewpoint BhaiSaab opposes) banned. Three were to combat vandalism by BhaiSaab and one was a merging of two sections (hardlly classified as a revert).Bakaman Bakatalk 22:38, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

    • Comment - 1st revert was to revert vandalism by BhaiSaab. The text was sourced but it did not fit BhaiSaab's POV so it was deleted. Actually all the reverts were combatting vandalism. There is no need to delete well-sourced material. BhaiSaab has engaged in POV pushing. He wants to get Subhash out of his way.Bakaman Bakatalk 22:28, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment - Add that the user BhaiSaab has committed 6RR (see complaint below) and I was correcting his unreasoned vandalism (IMHO) of a sourced edit by another user. If the admin feels that this is not vandalism but a content dispute, then I request that he let me know in my talk page so that I may reverse my last revert and negate the alleged 3RR violation.Netaji 23:21, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

    If showing that a source is so obviously misrepresented, then yes what I did was vandalism. The third revert shows Netaji deleting "failed verification" tags. BhaiSaab 01:11, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

    Reply - The source was not misrepresented. It gave clear proof of a mandir and irked Muslims, who still have not furnished proof to the contrary. It merely did not fit your POV on the issue, giving you 'moral justification' to vandalize it.Bakaman Bakatalk 01:17, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Then I find it strange that you haven't provided a quote from the source (as I've requested on the talk page) to substantiate your claims. BhaiSaab 01:22, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Why am I needing to find proof? Why haven't the Muslims found anything to debunk Hindu claims to the site? The sentence was added because the Muslim parties have not found anybody to support their claims. Since there are no sources in the article to contradict this, my statement is true, meaning you deleted a true statement. This of course is vandalism.Bakaman Bakatalk 01:26, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Essentially, you're saying "I can't find a quote in the source to back up the claim." BhaiSaab 01:33, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    No I'm saying "The Muslim side just got owned by the facts". Of course I may be misrepresenting my own statement.Bakaman Bakatalk 01:50, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

My reverts, while being more than 3RR, were to revert his vandalism of a sourced article (placed in the article not by myself).Netaji 22:41, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

    Support - BhaiSaab has been vandalizing the article and removing sentences that don't fit his POV. He was trying to discredit the same (well-sourced and verifiable) section 6 times in an hour.Bakaman Bakatalk 22:46, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

    Comment - BhaiSaab has been blocked twice before for 3RR.Bakaman Bakatalk 22:46, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

    Baka, how many comments do you need to make? I only have three reverts here - the rest are not reverts as is plainly obvious. BhaiSaab 01:13, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

    Yes but as a great admin stated: "You had the intention of undoing constructive edits".Bakaman Bakatalk 01:18, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Where? BhaiSaab 01:22, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    On your talk page "Deliberatly editing to technically avoid breaking the rule - by actions such as using different tags - is still breaking the rule. --Robdurbar 22:57, 14 August 2006 (UTC)". and "After that you repeatedly added tags to the article. This appears to be a way to disrupt the article without technically reverting the 3RR and was enough, in my mind, to warrent a short block". Taken from User_talk:BhaiSaab#3RR_ViolationBakaman Bakatalk 01:28, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    So am I supposed to deliberately edit in a way that obviously breaks the 3rr rule? I had no other recourse because the source is obviously misrepresented. BhaiSaab 01:32, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Its not misrepresented. As you can see, this debunked every claim the Muslims made. It stated as fact, that the Eyesore was built on the temple. You deleted a true statement, then tried to find sneaky ways to make it look like you were not reverting. Your tactics were meant to "disrupt the article". Vandalism as we call it. You have broken 3RR.Bakaman Bakatalk 01:36, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Wow, you used bold. Now I'm convinced you're right. BhaiSaab 01:42, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    "So am I supposed to deliberately edit in a way that obviously breaks the 3rr rule? I had no other recourse because the source is obviously misrepresented.". Accused has admitted to breaking 3RR.Bakaman Bakatalk 01:44, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Right...BhaiSaab 01:46, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    I'm seeing a good faith effort by User:BhaiSaab to prevent original research from entering into this article. Also, I don't see more than 3 reverts. (→Netscott) 03:32, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

    This may seem to be none of my business, but hopefully an outside view will help. I think the problem is that the two of you are in the middle of an edit war. The three of you should go to Misplaced Pages:Dispute_resolution for the best ways to resolve your issues. Ask for mediation or arbitration; just something other than trying to call 3RR on each other. I would be willing to believe that a smart admin would either not block either of you, or block both of you. Either way, I think Dispute Resolution is where you need to go. --Targetter 01:46, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

    Indeed. It appears that user:BhaiSaab has also broken this rule for the second time in a few days. I have blocked SB for 24 hours again, and will block BS for the same period. The two need to realise that this is not how to conduct themselves on Misplaced Pages. --Robdurbar 08:54, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Hmm, I see reverts here, here and here but on the other ones I see the adding of tags and content being commented out. One of the "reverts" above was a link to the history of the article. Did I miss something? (→Netscott) 09:25, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Yeah, apologies, I did miss count this one. I'll cancel the block Robdurbar 09:58, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    Thanks for taking my talk into consideration Robdurbar and taking a second look at this report. Cheers. (→Netscott) 10:02, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

    Time report made: 23:22, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: The reversions are slightly different to evade 3RR and game the system, but they all amount to inserting OR tags or commenting out a widely accepted section, which is absolutely against the consensus on the talk page and have all been reverted by many other people. This is a long-time user with many archives of his talk page, not a new user or anon, so I assumed a warning was unnecessary. Deuterium 11:47, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

    No Block as this is a duplicate of a report made above. --PinchasC | £€åV€ m€ å m€§§åg€ 23:53, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

    I would suppor a block of Deuterium for a violation of WP:POINT for relisting this. --PinchasC | £€åV€ m€ å m€§§åg€ 00:09, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

    Yeah, I bet you would. Unfortunately for you, that's not policy. Deuterium
    Disruption is blockable, and admin-shopping to get the result you want is disruptive. I suggest you stop. JoshuaZ 00:14, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

    Comments:

    • I have raised the question of whether or not the article should have the genocide or massacres category. I asked on the talk page what people would prefer to use and the majority said the later. Vsion and another user refuse to accept that because they feels they are right. I apologise for the fourth revert as I didn't realise my mistake. Then again it was made 23 hours after the first, so I think that Vsion is using this as a somewhat sneaky means of taking control of the article. John Smith's 22:27, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
    • Although there were only 4 edits within this 24 hour period, you have established a pattern of reverting changes to the article, as evidenced by the history of the page. I'm blocking you for 12 hours, with an urge to continue the discussion on the talk page (once the block expires). The WP:3RR is designed for content disputes, and this is one. Had others violated 3RR, they would have also been blocked. alphaChimp 00:11, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

    I think this report is spurious. Like it sez in the rules, you're very unlikely to get blocked for 3RR on your own talk page William M. Connolley 08:35, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

    Report Example

    BEFORE REPORTING, PLEASE MAKE SURE THE USER IS FAMILIAR WITH THE 3RR RULE. IF IT IS A NEW USER OR ANON IP, PLACE A WARNING (ie: {{subst:3RR}} ) ON HIS/HER TALK PAGE AND REPORT THEM ONLY IF THEY CONTINUE TO REVERT.

    Here's an example of what a listing should look like: 

    ===] reported by User:~~~ (Result:)===
] violation on {{Article|PROBLEM ARTICLE/PAGE NAME}}. {{3RRV|VIOLATOR_USERNAME}}: <!-- USE UNDERSCORE INSTEAD OF SPACE! -->
* Previous version reverted to:  
<!-- If you cannot fill this in, do not make a report. It absolutely must be included, either here or separately for each revert. -->
* 1st revert: 
* 2nd revert: 
* 3rd revert: 
* 4th revert: 
<!-- These MUST be DIFFS, not OLDIDs. Look up Help:Diff if you do not know what a diff is. -->
