    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.

    • Blocked – for a period of 24 hours. For some reason, administrators seem to be divided as whether blatant POV pushing is "vandalism", but I say it isn't so I treat it as a stock content dispute. Tyler Durden came close to being 3RR blocked for the same period, especially after this hypocrisy, but he hasn't done 4 reverts in 24 hours so I'll let him off with a warning to make sure you put a discussion on talk page so admins can at least see you have tried to get consensus.

    Comments:It's a little odd because it is two different IPs from Massachusetts. They have done nothing ever on Misplaced Pages except remove this section from the article stating it doesn't belong even though the source says it's DC making an animated Watchmen movie. I tried to get them to use the talk section but they just keep saying it doesn't belong. I don't know if this technically isn't a violation because it's three separate (but similar) IP's, but if it's not I would love for some help with how to resolve this. Thanks in advance.

    The five diffs linked as reverts are similar to past edit warring, but those in particular break the 3RR and also are the first to more flagrantly antagonize the other editors by including an obviously POV "in the wake of an apocalyptic insurrection". Cuñado ☼ - Talk 06:39, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

    Violating WP:BLP by claiming A. R. Rahman, Hema Malini to be converts from Hinduism to Islam, while not providing single source of them stating that they converted from one religion to other.

    Clearly not a new user, as per this WP:SPI: Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Anatha Gulati as well. Seems like an account created only for edit warring and disruption.

    Me and other editor have reverted his WP:BLPVIO since its exempted from WP:3RRNO to remove BLP violation, but he still continues to violate BLP. Capitals00 (talk) 06:43, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

    User:Capitals00 is actually edit warring and keep reverting well referenced texts without participating on the article's talk page despite repeated request from my edit summary. I even responded to resolve on my talk page

    His reverts are:

    and it should be noted that he has previously socked. The case is here: with 3 blocked socks.

    I guess he is using another sock whose diffs are:

    to avoid 3RR until he found out that "WP:BLPCAT exempts from WP:3RR" and keep writing that when reverting my edits. Drivarum (talk) 06:55, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

    • Warned. No indication the user was informed about 3RR / BLP being a thing. And how easy would that have been to do? To write out {{uw-3RR}} / {{uw:blp}} is exceedingly easy. Well, lesson for next time. El_C 07:00, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
