We are havingoing a problem across many articles with mass amount of reverts. Main problem is the change of dialects in in ft boxes across multiple articles . As a new editor I was hoping for the best..... but the fact that 90% of the edits are reverted leads us here. <span style="font-weight:bold;color:darkblue">]</span>-] 02:43, 20 April 2022 (UTC) |

Previous version reverted to:
Diffs of the user's reverts: Several recent instances, 3 April, this is failure to observe BRD, content was reverted by 3rd editor NF makes original add
other editor reverts NF restores
The next article edit is a second editor reverting.
Starting 13 April
NF adds "alt-right" to lead 24 Feb and is reverted
1. NF Adds "far-right" and citations to opening sentence Given 24 Feb edit this is a revert vs a new edit
other editor reverts "far-right" (leaves citations)
other editor removes disputed content
The final edit is just over 24hr but is part of a pattern of combative editing based on the assumption that consensus is required to remove new content and editors who don't agree are acting in bad faith (see similar behavior here ). This is a new editor with around 100 total edits.
Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning:
Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk page discussion to resolve issue The combination of bad faith accusations and edit warring is problematic. For example, "I just re-read Springee's original post. It is quite misleading to claim that the two sources I added cannot be accessed because of paywall." The articles in question are behind a paywall. "calling the GAL/TAN scale 'POV' shows that you don't understand political science. " No one said the GAL/TAN scale was POV.
Diff of ANEW notice posted to user's talk page:
Comments:
I reversed the removal of cited content which occured without consensus in the discussion page. Therefore, I acted on attempts by Springee to vandalise the article. In regards to the second point, Springee appears to demonstrate a history of removing similar labels (especially the far-right one) in Republican-related articles . For the record, I never used the alt-right one - that's misleading. He did refer to the label and the GAL/TAN scale as POV to justify their removal. His contribution is open to interpretations, but a thorough look at the discussion page can verify my claims . NikolaosFanaris (talk) 15:38, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Added "alt-right" to lead . Springee (talk) 15:44, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- The filing editor Springee has also violated 1RR:
- 07:34 15 April 2022: Reverting 15:09 14 April 2022 edit by X-Editor
- 07:36 15 April 2022: Reverting 15:00 14 April 2022 edit by X-Editor
- I'm not sure that Springee's edits rise to the level of vandalism, but there does appear to be some whitewashing/stonewalling going on. For example here they claim that an actual quote of Owens "does not really clarify her views on the subject", and that the opposing RS view is somehow undue. This looks like an effort to undermine the contested "far right" label by removing sources that support it. And Springee has been here long enough to know that a source being behind a WP:PAYWALL is not a legitimate complaint. All involved should be mindful of the 1RR restriction. –dlthewave ☎ 16:54, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- You are incorrect though it is interesting that once again you have shown up to a notice board discussion that doesn't involve you but does involve me. Anyway, I made a series of 3 edits that were meant to be back to back. FN reverted one of the edits as I was making the 3rd. Note the edits are just 2 minutes apart (07:34 and 07:36) and FN's edits occurred at 07:34 and 07:35. Are you really going to claim that as edit warring when I could have made all three changes as 1 edit? Your other claims are an attempt to poison the well rather than a reasonable description of both the edits and the concerns raised on the talk page. Finally, I did not say that content behind a paywall is unusable. Rather the paywall makes WP:V difficult for other editors (see my diff here "...requiring a subscription. That doesn't mean those sources are unusable.") Please do not falsely accuse me of claiming sources behind a paywall are not usable when that is clearly not what I said. Springee (talk) 17:02, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- I don't know what point you were (and still are) trying to make about the paywall, but I never
"(accused you) of claiming sources behind a paywall are not usable"
. Please either strike that statement or provide a diff where I said that. –dlthewave ☎ 15:44, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
- I don't know what point you were (and still are) trying to make about the paywall, but I never
- This looks like whataboutism and in any case is not equivalent: it's obvious those were intended to be edits in a row (which count as one revert per WP:3RR). Those latter two edits are perfectly in line with good faith editing. The WP:ONUS for inclusion lies with inclusionists, always has. Quotepicking can still be bad or UNDUE, and removing sources that are redundant is fine (the label "far-right" was already gone). Crossroads 17:29, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

One structural note, NikolaosFanaris when you said "reversed the removal of cited content which occurred without consensus" that implies that citing gives a material a special status that then requires a consensus to remove. Sourcing or sourcability is a requirement for all article space content and does not give it special status such as requiring a consensus for removal. In reality (potential) removal is guided by other policies and guidelines, those centering around wp:burden and wp:BLP being amongst those being very applicable here. North8000 (talk) 17:19, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Sure - but I still think that the removal should be considered vandalism and POV, hence my reversals. Springee deliberately removed cited content that was backed by reputable sources and contained actual quotes. I sense heavy POV behind some of actions, including the continuous removal of the far-right label. Owens' ideology sits on that side of the political spectrum - there is absolutely no doubt about that. Everything in the views' section already points towards that direction, but somehow this is debated by one user who has a history of removing labels in WP. First the label, and now the removal of actual quotes. Please read WP:IMPARTIAL NikolaosFanaris (talk) 17:45, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- The common meaning of "far right" in the US is either the whackiest, most extreme end of that political spectrum or else a pejorative term applied to any conservative by a political opponent. North8000 (talk) 18:27, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Apart from the aggressive statement, which is clearly targeting me, I have to point out that top academic journals have been used to back the term in the case of CO. I don't care how you or anyone else in the American context use the term. Those are all hypothetical scenarios. With that said, we are currently participating in this encyclopedia and my understanding is that we have to somehow(?) value political science and terminology. And to answer to your previous statement: no, you are wrong! Far-right does not automatically imply (even in the American context!) that someone is sitting on the most extreme end of the political spectrum. That's called extremism (or extreme-right) and is not always related to the far-right family. NikolaosFanaris (talk) 18:51, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- My statements do not devalue political science And we do summarize what is is said in (hopefully good) sources, and summaries are typically done using the common meanings of terms, so those are relevant. My post was also pointing out two different context-sensitive meanings in sources; such may assist in that effort. North8000 (talk) 18:59, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- This is a volatile statement and implies that I am adding the far-right label (backed by academic sources) as a pejorative term: The common meaning of "far right" in the US is either the whackiest, most extreme end of that political spectrum or else a pejorative term applied to any conservative by a political opponent. Nothing more, nothing less. NikolaosFanaris (talk) 19:01, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- First, adding to my previous post, regarding your statement that far right does not mean the most extreme end of that political spectrum, IMO that assertion obviously doesn't sound correct.North8000 (talk) 19:06, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Next the first statement in your post makes two claims about me. 1. That I said that in this case it is a pejorative term. I didn't say that, but agree with it. 2. That I implied a certain motivation of yours for making the addition. I did not say or imply that. North8000 (talk) 19:14, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Which proves my point that you don't really understand this terminology. The difference between far-right and extreme (or radical) right lies in the ideological compliance with liberal democracy. In most cases, the far-right term is able to accurately describe ultraconservative actors or parties who still operate within those limits. On the other hand, radical or extreme right indicates strong undemocratic notions and a highly authoritarian stance. With that said, I believe that the majority of authors who have come here to accuse me of reversals are driven by clear POV and a lack of understanding of terminology, which shows that certain ideological criteria may cloud their judgmement. To give you a different example, I don't understand astrophysics, which means that I would never express an opinion on such theories. But most importantly, I would never go around trying to enforce my opinion on other OR accuse users I disagree with of attacking conservatives by using a certain terminology. In regards to Candace Owens - no she is not a conservative anymore - she is actually ultraconservative, which effectively makes her far-right because of her clear ideological approach.

NF accusing others of "vandalism" is a bad sign, as is the stonewalling in this back-and-forth as linked above. Crossroads 17:29, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Agree that saying or implying "vandalism" and other negative generalizations and implying bad motives about another editor is out-of-line at best. IMO doubly so about an editor who, from what I've seen has been has been a cautious, courteous and very Wikipedian editor. North8000 (talk) 18:23, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- It's not vandalism, but lots of editors don't understand our strict definition of that term. Bad, but not an ongoing behavioral problem. That link you cite, Crossroads, comes after a very long thread in which the issue has been identified clearly several times. For that editor to clueless ask "what's the problem here?" is a lazy, incompetent, or disingenuous question. I can understand the accused's frustration and snarky response. Not an ongoing crime either. SPECIFICO talk 19:30, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- Definitely not vandalism per SPECIFICO. What I'm seeing is a relatively new editor who is not as familiar with the ground rules as they should be, especially when editing the highly volatile AP2 topic area and even more so when it's a BLP. A firm word of caution would definitely help but if it doesn't, then a 6-month t-ban would allow time for the new editor to learn NPOV, BLP, dispassionate tone, REDFLAG, NOTNEWS, RECENTISM, and the difference between media opinion and statements of fact. Atsme 💬 📧 20:17, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Atsme: given that they decided to bull-in-china-shop with these exact same issues at Lauren Boebert while this discussion was active, I think a t-ban to encourage them to get experience in a less volatile area is looking increasingly like the best option. They're just not listening. VQuakr (talk) 01:03, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you for that information, VQuakr. DIDNTHEARTHAT is an undesirable position to be in. I was not aware of the other BLP, but after some research, I am now inclined to agree with you. Atsme 💬 📧 01:10, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Atsme:...aaaand they're edit warring there, too. . VQuakr (talk) 01:20, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- Inclined to support a six month ban because I simply moved the label, which was already mentioned in the article, further up in the intro? Is that how bans are proposed? How is this even an issue? I think I am being attacked unfairly here without serious evidence. NikolaosFanaris (talk) 01:14, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- No, you didn't just move it. You changed it from "per such and such source" to a violation of WP:WIKIVOICE, which is policy. This has already been explained to you, but rather than learn or ask for clarification you're continuing to edit war. Which means you aren't experienced enough (or don't have the patience in general) to be editing WP:BLP's. VQuakr (talk) 01:20, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

IMO, for their own wiki-benefit and than of Misplaced Pages NikolaosFanaris needs to learn how the the alternate universe of Misplaced Pages works before they try to jump in so heavily on difficult political articles. @NikolaosFanaris:, in the event that you agree, do you have an idea on a self-administered plan to do that? If not I would suggest a tban on the articles in question which might be an impetus for the described evolution and also solve the immediate issue at the article raised here. Sincerely, North8000 (talk) 01:51, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- I will not edit Boebert's page again, but I am not going to back down on Owens. There is some consensus on the talk page anyway. Cheers. NikolaosFanaris (talk) 09:40, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
This isn't going anywhere. I propose a close with trouts for OP and the accused. SPECIFICO talk 16:52, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- What did I do? FN violated 1rr and shown a battleground attitude. At minimum a warning is in order. Springee (talk) 19:14, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- Trout's a warning. You reported a newbie, overreacted on talk page and with needless EW report. Neither did anything too terrible. SPECIFICO talk 21:01, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- @SPECIFICO: Are you for real RN? NF's most recent post here is a commitment to keep edit warring, and the OP did exactly what they're supposed to. VQuakr (talk) 21:18, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- That's misleading - I never said I will keep edit warring. I said that I will pursue my request for the far-right label. You need to chill bro 🤭 NikolaosFanaris (talk) 21:32, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

NF is continuing to edit war and restoring disputed edits without consensus . I think a block or similar is in order. Springee (talk) 14:40, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
- Misleading and immoral statement by Springee. I brought back academic sources from reliable journals that were removed by them without explanation . He brought up two irrelevant reasons: cite-overkill and paywall. Nobody disagreed in the discussion page about the academic sources as they have been used here to back the claim that CO is an influencer! Not sure what Springee is trying to achieve here, but this is getting close to character assassination. NikolaosFanaris (talk) 14:53, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
- Does the edit have consensus? If it was removed without explanation then why would you cite (incorrectly I will add) my explanations? Springee (talk) 14:59, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
- Springee, you ignored my direct question to you concerning the central issue with respect to sourcing. I don't see that you are engaging in good faith on the talk page. You are both repeating yourselves and drowning out any chance of constructive progress. I've opened a new section on the talk page and you should both take a trout and move on. SPECIFICO talk 15:36, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
- Cause the only disagreement came from you. Both explanations are misleading and untruthful. NikolaosFanaris (talk) 15:05, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
- Looking through the article history, several editors including Springee and NikolaosFanaris have repeatedly added and removed reliably-sourced content and sources that might be viewed as critical of Owens. Calling for a tban based on a small 1RR violation and making accusations of POV pushing, when Springee's own behavior is very similar even though they insist it did not cross the 1RR line, is not a good look and has the effect, if not the intention, of trying to remove a voice that they disagree with. I would note that Springee is once again pushing back against the paywalled source, claiming that
"The problem with the part wall sources (sic) is we don't know if they actually support what NF claims"
which is very concerning behavior from an experienced editor. –dlthewave ☎ 15:35, 17 April 2022 (UTC)- Dlthewave, I can't help but notice that you seem to come out of no where when I report an editor for something like this. When you come out of no where you invariably make excuses or downplay the behavior of the other editor and try to find a reason why I'm at fault. I'm also noticing that you are falsely presenting my paywall argument. My concern is that, without being able to read the reports, I can't see if they actually support the claims in question. Endwise did have access to the reports and confirmed my concerns . It is false to claim I refuse to allow sources that are behind a paywall. However, it is quite reasonable for editors to challenge claims that can't be readily verified when the editor making the claim is making blanket statements vs providing detailed quotes. That isn't "very concerning behavior", it is very reasonable concern. Springee (talk) 16:29, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

This is in the edit warring page and about an alleged edit warring violations on a 1RR article and an allegation that it is continuing. I see a lot of stuff that is off of that topic, including unfounded accusations of the reporter (including of vandalism, "character assassination", and of making an immoral statement) Also seeming to say that it's OK to edit war if the person feels that it's a good edit.

Comments:
The user has engaged in long-term edit-warring and I'm tired of him removing my edits and that of others. And he hasn't done this only on one edit, but multiple ones over months. I don't want to keep edit-warring with him and it's clear he won't stop, I've already self-reverted multiple times or let the situation go so as to not create more of a dispute: , , ,
The user is displaying ownership behaviour and doesn't allow an edit other than what he agrees with.
He also denies engaging in an edit war because according to him the edits he is reverting are bad . As he has a lot of experience, I highly doubt he doesn't know his statement is wrong and don't fall in any exemptions of WP:3RR as far as I see. Regardless him thinking the edits are bad isn't an exemption since it's a personal view. I'm tired of arguing with the individual and him reverting me so many times, please take action. Even when I mentioned it to him, he claimed I'm talking nonsense and he made uncivil comments .
Also I haven't included many other reverts he has done since he hasn't repeatedly reverted them (although they would qualify under ownership behavior since he decides what is right like or .) AbsolutelyFiring (talk) 05:57, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- You can't go through a page's history looking for every time someone has reverted any random thing to make it look like they are engaged in an edit war. The above diffs cover many different issues involving many different users and many different talk page discussions over several months, and presenting them in this way is very deceptive. Like it or not, reverting is a normal part of editing Misplaced Pages and especially happens a lot at popular articles such as this where many editors are involved and many changes get made. I know that it is frustrating when your edits get reverted, but you are going to have to get used to that happening if you want to make bold changes to popular articles that a lot of other editors are also working on. Repeatedly re-reverting and not following good faith approaches such as WP:BRD and WP:STATUSQUO is not the answer. All of the diffs above have clear justification and all of the previous issues that you are referencing were either supported by policies and guidelines (Future, Ratcatcher), talk page consensus (box-office bomb), or were part of a process that led to new consensus (plot changes, home media stuff). The answer for the latest disagreement is to stop making your bold change (which you did 1, 2, 3 times without attempting any discussion at the talk page) and start discussing why you think it should be made. Jumping to ANEW when we haven't even had a basic talk page discussion about the issue is not the right approach. I have clearly demonstrated to you in the past that I am happy to come up with compromises and make things work, but that can only happen if you actually participate in discussion. - adamstom97 (talk) 22:48, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
- I can when you have reverted multiple people and it shows a pattern of behavior. Also although WP:BRD and WP:STATUSQUO are not policies, I did discuss with you several times or let you do what you want and refrained from further reverts regardless , , . Because there's no point in simply reverting. However, as I have pointed out you keep reverting whenever I make a change, even on minute things like removing repeated text that might be WP:SYNTH.
- You are abusing the revert function by reverting every time. And it's not just me you revert. Although I don't want to seem as if I'm accusing someone of bad faith, your edits do seem to display ownership behavior. So it's high time you were blocked or banned or at least warned. AbsolutelyFiring (talk) 23:21, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
- In this edit summary, AbsolutelyFiring is actively ignoring WP:IMPLICIT and using the fact that WP:BRD isn't a policy as an excuse not to start a discussion and to keep making the same WP:BOLD edit over and over. —El Millo (talk) 16:00, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

are incomplete, because there wasn't an attempt to resolve this last content dispute. —El Millo (talk) 16:45, 18 April 2022 (UTC)- I didn't only this time because I'm tired of his edit-warring and this is about
long-term edit-warring, not just one incident
. In case you've missed my earlier comments, I have started discussions in past or let the situation go. - I have argued with him many times in past. For example in one case I let the situation go and let him have his own way which does count as dispute resolution like I did here in one case. A person doesn't have to keep disputing.
- What the report asked for was attempts at resolving dispute which I did in most cases though discussing here and here. It does not ask that you have reached a compromise. Though I agreed to the compromise given by Gonein60 in one case. In another, I removed my edit first as I explained, but later Adamstom.97 acted upon a suggestion by Gonein60. I didn't oppose it.
- I request that you carefully examine what you are claiming before accusing me.
- But I am tired of Adamstom.97 thinking he can revert any time he wants and use discussion as an excuse to stonewall. And it's not just me he has edit-warred with. Reverting again and again, telling multiple people what can't go into an article through edit-warring or even implying one is exempt for edit-warring like here is breaching the policies. There seems to be no point in reepatedly arguing with him. AbsolutelyFiring (talk) 17:08, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

- Look all, I'm closing this discussion down. There may very well be some behavioral issues with either the reporter or the reportee, but this seems like a clearly more complex case, and ANEW is simply not designed to handle such complex cases. It's for quick, obvious WP:3RR-type problems, and the like. I recommend a discussion be started at WP:ANI if there is some sanctions needed, but ANEW is not the place to have this discussion given the format of the board. I'd also like to remind everyone of WP:BOOMERANG if you do decide to take it to ANI. --Jayron32 17:18, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
