    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.

The list is inclusive an includes all scientists from the middle ages who contributed to science in the arabic language/arabic cultural world. It staes this quite clearly in the first paragraph of the article. The article is not about defining who is an arab (there are several definitions)- it is about recognizing contributions to a culture >

    Comments:2 points:

    1. While some of these edits are partial reverts, they are a clear example of edit-warring on the part of the user despite warnings provided to him
    2. While they span an interval that is slightly longer than 24 hours, they are aclose enough to conclude that the user is violating the "electric fence" philosophy behind the 3rr rule and does not seem to show any tendency to discuss any issues in the talk page.Other users and I have tried to initiate discussions with him but he has responded with incivility WP:Civility in our talk pages.Hkelkar 02:23, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

    User insists on reverting other peoples edits. Thinks he owns the article. --Mikedk9109 20:11, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

    No, I don't think I "own" the article. The only edits I have reverted are Mikedk9109's. The article refers to the character of Leatherface in all present incarnations. In the introductory paragraph (which basically outlines the character) Mikedk9109 frequently adds irrevelant information pertaining to only the remake. I reverted it as there is already a section dedicated to the remake, with explanations each time as to why its not needed.
    I would also like to point out that I offered to do a mediation case with Mikedk9109 to settle this civilly but he ignored them and made this report after I wrote it. He wrote "I think mediation would be useless, seeing that we cannot get along."--CyberGhostface 20:18, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

    Cyber, I did not make this report after you tried to have a "meaidation" with me. After you reverted I reported you. You think you own this page, and have no respect for what other people try to do. You think you own it. I have suggested you look over WP:OWN but you simply blew it off, and made some excuse to say how you didn't think you owned it. You've reverted countless other users edits because they don't "suit" you, not just my edits. Which were perfectly valid by the way. --Mikedk9109 20:34, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

    Each time I reverted it I backed up it with logical reasoning, most of which to you never responded to. Trying to keep false information out of the page doesn't count as 'owning' it, especially since its only one type of edit which I have been reverting. If you post false, biased information to an article you can't expect it not to be reverted.--CyberGhostface 20:39, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
    That name is not false or biased. It is true. It is his alternate identity, and has to be included the intro. Your making new excuses every time I respond to try and turn this against me. Regardless, you've broken the 3RR. --Mikedk9109 20:42, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
    Its an identity thats only relevant for two out of the six films Leatherface has appeared in and is also featured down in the article. The article applies to Leatherface's character as it has been in all six films. He's only been referred to as Hewitt in two. Its like if someone makes a Dracula film and says his real name is Marten Vladimir. That name might be relevant enough for its own section, but it would be irrevelant and infactual if in the main header of the article it was written "Dracula, also known as Marten Vladimir is a character..." and so forth. Its important enough to be featured in the remake section, it is not important enough to be featured in the introductory paragraph which refers to all incarnations of Leatherface, not just the most recent. That's not excuses...its fact.--CyberGhostface 21:13, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
    CyberGhostFace, why did you get drag another user into this conflict? That user has no business in this. Other than that, I'm done arguing, I'll just wait for the ruling. --Mikedk9109 21:27, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
    Because A.) I was getting nowhere trying to convince you myself, B.) Bignole is a major contributor to the article, and I figured his advice would be helpful in settling this, and C.) Because the article and Misplaced Pages itself is a collaborative effort and if I have any problems I have every right contact another party for assistance.--CyberGhostface 22:50, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

    Comments:

    Although later reversions made by Cripipper were not quite the same, they had the same effect as to remove reference to the role of Mao Zedong in the Cultural Revolution being reduced by the CCP. I myself acknowledged the point that sources were required and provided them. However Cripipper continued to revert, even after I had made an effort to reach a comprimise over a new version. He even declared that the sources were not "acceptable" and thus liable to be removed. Given such an attitude I'm afraid I feel I have to report him - I did warn him beforehand. John Smith's 00:08, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

    Please not that this is an edit issue that has been going on for almost a week now. Not only has John Smith's already broken the 3RR himself with regard to this today, he refuses to engage with other editors on this issue on the relevant talk page, instead choosing to decree from on high in his edit summary which edits he accepts and which he does not, instead of attempting to reach a consensus on the discussion pages. Cripipper 00:44, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
    I actually changed the entire position of the edited section, which had previously refered to the commission of the CR. I also added sources. Thus I have not broken the 3RR. I also explained what I was doing in the edit summary, as well as leaving a note on the talk page. You made the changes before reaching a "consensus" - I was merely providing some sources to resolve a query. Now you've moved the goalposts and claimed they're not good enough. John Smith's 00:49, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
    • You changed the entire position because it had been shown that the previous rvs you have been performing all week on other editors' changes were incorrect. Your first contribution to talk was about one hour ago, after a week of reverting these edits. What you finally replaced them with were sources which do not meet Misplaced Pages's verifiability standards. Accepting the deletion of the nonsense that was previously there and replacing it with slightly different nonsense referenced from nonsense is not improving an article.

    The first revert looks like a vandalism revert as well of some unexplained blanking no block Jaranda 01:15, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

    Please look at the first revert again. Adding the same image as the other reverts. --BostonMA 01:20, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
    interest declared: following comment is from user under review
    The first revert is clearly a vandalism revert - the picture in question just happened to be among the vandalized content. In your opinion, would the right way have been to undo all the vandalism except for the picture? That can't be the right way, can it?--The Hungry Hun 07:55, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
    Yes Hungry Hun, you are correct. It makes no sense to revert part of the previous changes. I see now that the first reversion should not count. My apologies. --BostonMA 14:12, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
    Adding the same image? Now, that takes nerve, for this image was already present: it is User:BostonMA who has been blanking it. User:BostonMA is the latest wave of a rising tide of fundamentalist editors who blank images of Muhammad on various articles, in his case without bothering to make an argument on talk - and even so, what can the argument be, other than that the image must be censored to make Misplaced Pages Halal? (struck inappropriate comments --BostonMA 14:17, 12 October 2006 (UTC)) And the diffs show that the image is not the only thing that User:BostonMA saw fit to arbitrarily censor which HungryHun valiantly restored, knowing he was taking he risk of being reported here and possibly sanctioned by an admin less reasonable than Jaranda. If anything, this report only underscores the need to take action against users who adopt User:BostonMA's approach to editting Misplaced Pages: for every blip on the noticeboards there are two users who give up editting - really defending - these articles because there is no established mechanism for dealing with this madness, other than to stay glued to Misplaced Pages and revert them all day or the even more laborious path of arbitration. User:BostonMA should be blocked for his ceaseless and unashamed disruption. (struck inappropriate comments --BostonMA 14:17, 12 October 2006 (UTC) Observation Post 08:21, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

        • That's a revision; perhaps not the ideal revision. Larry Dunn added the claim which seems to be at issue; perhaps it would be better not to discuss Ministeriales here altogether.

    All right, I'll try that and see what happens.Larry Dunn 01:47, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
    Ok, sorry, I see what you're saying. I've just deleted the reference to the ministeriales, as well as the section on social status that JCScaliger apparently found necessary because of the reference to them, so hopefully that will put an end to it.Larry Dunn 01:53, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
    I'm glad to see this exchange has come to something. Actually, this shouldn;t even count once; it's the basis for partial reversions, if anything. Septentrionalis 02:54, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
    I don't follow. What I do know is that, in a 24-hour period, this user changed edits I made four or five times as part of a debate over wording. My understanding is that behavior is prohibited by Misplaced Pages's user policy. I'd ask that an administrator take a look at this.Larry Dunn 04:19, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

    By contrast, Larry Dunn's edits have been two exact reversions. compound diff 04;22 to 15:55 and compound diff 15:55 to 17:58. The first of these appears to be, on the points at issue, substantially a reversion to the edits he made when he first began to edit the article. Compound diff, 05:31 11 September to 04;22 12 October. Septentrionalis 01:39, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

    Isn't it possible to finesse a revert to look like a revision? My understanding from Sarah was that that is also not acceptable.Larry Dunn 01:44, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
    The 3RR rule cannot be broken by reverting one's own edits. If you had edited between 22:52 and 00:12 the next day, there might have been a partial reversion; but you did not. None of those tweaks can be counted. Compound reversions work like this:
    User A edits to version 1.
    User B edits to version 2.
    User A edits to version 3.
    User A then goes back to version 1.
    The problem is going back to version 1 around someone-else's edit. That counts as one revert. Septentrionalis 01:56, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

    For someone that actually reads this, hopefully you have the time to actually read everything in context in the edits/summaries, which clearly demonstrate vanadlism, whether intentional or otherwise, thus no revert, only rectifying obvious vandalism. The user mark83 was in fact the only one to violate the 3RR in those exchanges, as at least one of his edits was clearly vandalism, again whether accidental or not. Additonally, another admin was semi-involved already, creating a sectionon in the talk page to avoid such edit wars. However, mark83 never seemed to care enough about the issues at hand to give his two-cents. Instead, this muchness fellow here reports me for supposed 3RRV, an interesting guy that appears to have never contributed to the wiki in question where the supposed 3RR occured, at least not in quite a long time(I didn't look through all of his/her history). It's all very curious, especially the corresponding neener-neener messages in my talk pageErnham 13:11, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: Editor is initiating an edit war on three page simultaneously (Stephen Barrett, Quackwatch, and NCAHF).

    Comment: Levine2112 made his first revert before the first one of mine listed above, and thus made his 4RR immediately before I made my 3RR. If I did anything wrong, it was certainly unintentional. The whole thing is found at Quackwatch, where we were discussing the matter. I used Misplaced Pages policies to show that two links were in total violation of WP:RS, WP:EL, and WP:BLP, and therefore, since no one was responding with anything better than emotional arguments, I made a bold delete. That doesn't count in a 3RR, which only counts reverts, hence it being called 3RR, rather than 3DRR I'm trying to keep libel out of the articles, and Levine2112 and company are trying to include it. Motivations are totally different. -- Fyslee 00:11, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

    Comment: I have asked Fyslee to provide me with the DIFFs showing my violation as he charges. He has not been able to... because it doesn't exist. This is not the place to argue our edits, just his violation of the 3RR, which you can see in the four DIFFs provided above. Please also note that in my 3rd and final revert, I used the edit summary to warn Fyslee that we has on the verge of violating 3RR. It is hard for me to buy that his violation was, as he says, unintentional. He's an experienced editor here and should know better than use an edit war to push his POV agenda.

    What my report could have looked like

    User:Levine2112 reported by User:Fyslee (Result:)


    Three-revert rule violation on Quackwatch (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Levine2112 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    To keep the edit history understandable, I'll list the edits chronologically but separately, since they count separately:

    Bolen link (Quackpot Watch)

    -- Both links are there, and had been there for a long time. My examination of the rules, as I explained them in the discussion above, led me to delete one or both of them. They should never have been there in the first place.
    • My first delete (not a revert) of the Bolen link -- 00:14, 13 October 2006. This was what Levine2112 reverted (his 1st revert below).
    • My edit summary:
    "self-published email newsletters even when posted on websites, are not allowed as external links or sources, except on articles about the author of the emails"

    I left the Bolen link, even though it involves libelous accusations that have, under forced depostion, been admitted to be "euphemisms."


    Rosenthal link (QuackWatch Watch)

    -- Both links are there, and had been there for a long time. My examination of the rules, as I explained them in the discussion above, led me to delete one or both of them. They should never have been there in the first place.
    • My first delete (not a revert) of the Rosenthal link -- 23:25, 13 October 2006. This was what Levine2112 reverted (his 1st revert below).
    • My edit summary:
    "Rosenthal site violates WP:RS
    "reinstating relevant critical link which provides not only opinion on subject but court documents and relevant news articles and interviews"
    "Bolen and Rosenthal sites violate WP:RS and WP:EL; use specific links to court documents in the article"
    "Revert to revision 81295755 dated 2006-10-13 22:24:29 by Levine2112 using popups."
    "Bolen and Rosenthal sites violate WP:RS, WP:EL, and WP:BLP; use specific links to court documents in the article."
    "careful Fyslee... on the verge of 3RR"
    "Same reasons apply. You just made 4rr. I'm discussing on talk."

    It would appear that I was mistaken at this point. He was at 3RR, not 4RR, and so was I. My (belated) apologies!!

    If my first delete is to be counted as my first revert, then the 3RR policy needs to be more clear. I don't recall ever having read this. If it is there somewhere, please point me to it.

    COMMENTS

    Context

    NB: All of this was happening in the context of a discussion about External Links, where gross violations of WP:RS, WP:EL, and WP:BLP were discussed. I requested explanations of any errors in my reasoning, explanations based on Misplaced Pages sources, and not on emotional and other types of reasoning. I have not received them. I would like to understand these policies. If I have misunderstood them, then I have a right to have them explained properly as I have requested. The other editors should debunk by understanding using policies. If the policies are ambiguous or unclear, then they should be revised instead of censuring me or ganging up on me. I am certainly willing to abide by policies.

    It was only after failing to receive explanations based on Misplaced Pages's policies that I began to delete the two links. I believed I had undebunked Wiki policies to back me up. The proper response to my deletions would have been to debunk my interpretation on the talk page, and not for Levine2112 to start an edit war, and then call in the troops when he had reached 3RR. Most of the editors on these articles hate the subjects of the articles and are doing what they can to create an undue balance of criticisms, and even without regard to their quality, using sites that violate WP:BLP.

    Vastly different motivations

    This is not about disallowing ordinary negative sites. Other sites with negative viewpoints are available and allowable, but these two sites are of the type that are expressly forbidden.

    I am applying Misplaced Pages policies in an attempt to properly limit and control the use of libelous sites (limit and control libel), as required by the policies mentioned above. Levine2112, OTOH, is trying to get as much negativity in the articles as possible (promote libel), including dredging up the most disgusting packs of lies (proven under deposition) available.

    Our very different motivations should be taken into account. If any error of judgment occurs, it should be on the side of limiting and controlling the use of libelous information here at Misplaced Pages, and not on the side of relaxing our standards. "We are not tabloid journalism, we are an encyclopedia." - Jimbo Wales.

    Because these particular sites involve WP:BLP issues, these deletions are particularly sensitive, and the 3RR rule may not apply to my deletions and reverts, but still apply to Levine2112. This is a mitigating factor in my behavior. If I have erred, I have erred on the proper side.

    Background info

    My original delete (not a revert, and thus not counting), and Levine2112's subsequent reverts (starting an edit war, with his first revert counting as "1R"), all involved two different links on three articles, and thus counting was confusing in the heat of the battle, especially nearing 2 AM her in Denmark. I suspect that my miscount was because of a very similar situation occurring on the Stephen Barrett article at the same time.

    I went to bed about 2 AM and did not read the later comments or see the 3RR block until the next (Saturday) morning. He writes from the LA area, and I write from Denmark, although I am originally from Southern California. We are working with a very large time difference, with me being nine hours ahead of Calif. time. I did not document the diffs, not because I couldn't, but because it was very late (early!). I'm taking the time to do it now. If my counting of edits was in error, then it was an honest mistake and certainly not deliberate. I expect Levine2112 to exercise good faith. If I was mistaken, and I seem to have been about his revert count, then I apologize. I still believe that I did not do a 4RR and should not have been blocked, especially in light of the WP:BLP issues involved. -- Fyslee 21:32, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: At the RFCU on spartaz, the checkuser, UninvitedCompany, views the sockpuppetry as obvious. Thus, if the sockpuppetry is obvious, this is not only breaking the spirit of 3RR through an 'allotment' idealogy, but straight out lying about it. After the 3rd revert with an account, and 1 revert logged out, you say you've only done it 3 times, to escape the 3RR rule. Also note that a 4th revert was done by Spartaz's account a little under 45 minutes after the 24 hour window, not including the IP's revert. There's 5 reverts in a 25 hour period if we include the IP. Kevin_b_er 01:45, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

    I was going to leave it as a simple polite standard warning on his talk page, but he deleted the warning as trolling. As I understand it, that is also a violation. I believe a 24 hour block is standard for this. --Tbeatty 01:56, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

    The fourth "revert" is a combination of two edits made twelve hours apart. There is no 3RR violation. Care to apologize? Gamaliel 03:05, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
    I errored on the 4th revert as I combined you sequential edits. Here is the actual 4th revert

    and your fifth revert

    I apologize for getting your 4th revert wrong. Are you going to wikilawyer that 5 reverts in slightly over 1 day is not a violation? Gaming the 3RR system is also a violation of 3RR rules. --Tbeatty 03:20, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

    Can't resist getting one last dig in even though you are clearly in the wrong, can you? And what exactly is your point here? It takes (at least) two to edit war. My reverts are "gaming the system", while yours are sainly and pure, of course. You were wrong about the violation, and I thank you for your apology, but now is the time for you to just let it go. The issue is resolved, the edit war you started is over. Gamaliel 03:29, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
    I am not in the wrong at all and I wouldn't be wasting my time here if I did. I removed defamatory material per WP:BLP. You are attempting to tag a single individual with a derogatory tag that is not supported by the facts or reliable sources. You failed to do it in the article and are now attempting to do it with the category system. When you reverted for the fourth time, I brought it to WP:BLP noticeboard where a compromise was offered. You reverted the compromise and were then reverted by another editor from BLP. When I attempted to warn you about reverting, you deleted the warning and said it was trolling. Any newbie would have have been blocked for 24 hours. Yet as an admin you seem to think edit warring, multiple reverts and warning deletion is acceptable. The edit war started when you added defamatory information to a living person. I have no idea if the edit war has ended as you seem to game the 3RR system and when the clock expires I have no idea what you will do. --Tbeatty 04:31, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: The 4 reverts or partial reverts have to do with the order of the name of the region (Arabic/Jewish), the sentence about fedayeen incursrions to Israel and the addition of Arabs to the history passage about the Ghassanids. He has been given a warning before the report here but argued that he didn't violate it. Amoruso 00:07, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

    No violation occurred as my addition of the sentence about the Ghassanids looked nothing like the old version. Further, the switching of the order of the names is not unique enough to be tied to a previous version, and the removal of the fedayeen sentence was not a revert to a previous version either.

    I have spoken with people at LE accountable and the request to remove was made by Art Schreiber on grounds of copyright ownership. The fact that Rick Ross will not post the video, and it was taken down from YouTube and Archive.org and that France 3 on its site only refers to LE's web site are strong indications that neither France 3 nor Landmark Education gave permission. Misplaced Pages is not a means for promoting copyright infringement. Please contact me by email on this site and I will put you in communication with people at LE. Sm1969 08:03, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
    Do you have verifiable, sourced information to back up this claim? Thank you, Smeelgova 18:14, 15 October 2006 (UTC).
    That's not the good faith test. We now have several points indicating promotion of copyright infringement:
    1) France 3's web site no longer mentions the broadcast, but does post a reference to Landmark Education.
    2) It was taken down at both YouTube and Archive.org for "violating terms of use" and "issues with the item's content." (User Smeelgova posted the links to YouTube and Archive.org until both of those web sites took the content down.) Sm1969 19:25, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
    3) The entity doing the translation into English subtitles does *NOT* identify itself (remains anonymous).
    4) Rick Ross, who has also promoted the video with links, will not host its content.
    5) The only entity that can make the rescission request is the entity that owns the copyright (to any or all of it).
    6) I think this is unambiguous evidence that it is copyrighted and that one of the copyright holders has invoked copyright.
    7) Please call the Director of Media Relations referenced at LE's web site for confirmation. With the evidence of infringement presented here, I feel you have the burden of proof if you want to keep promoting this video.
    8) This video is hosted nowhere legimately on the Internet such that the user can the purchase its content. (That's an assertion.) Sm1969 19:45, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

    Sm1969 18:31, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

    All of the above is a clear violation of Misplaced Pages No Original Research. So I ask again, do you have verifiable, sourced information to back up your claims? Yours, Smeelgova 18:36, 15 October 2006 (UTC).
    That is not the intended interpetration of "No Original Research." If someone else were to copy and distribute, on the Internet, an hour long episode of any television episode (as is the case here, actually 1 hour 5 minutes according to the video), the default interpretation would be that it IS copyright infringment, not that asserting it is copyright infringement is "original research." I take the position that this is using the reputation and availability of Misplaced Pages to promote copyright infringement and an intent to have an encyclopedia "make news" rather than report on news. Further, the fact that the translator will not identify himself/herself only increases the likelihood of copyright infringement. You can not even find out who authored (e.g., Smeelgova) the English subtitles. Sm1969 19:12, 15 October 2006 (UTC) Please call in the wikipedia administrators. 71.146.134.77 18:54, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
    How about on the Wiki page for the "Beatles" you put a link to Google where you can get a free (copyright infringing, zero cost, illegal) hour long copy of a Beatles CD? Would you then say, "Well, it's original research." if someone argued that you did *NOT* have permission to do this? Sm1969 19:18, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
    Wouldn't Misplaced Pages also cite the poster of the links to the copyright infringing material as violating wikipedia policy? Sm1969 19:20, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

You will notice that I changed an entire section of the article between "revert 3" and "revert 4": In fact, "revert 4" was not a revert at all, but merely an attempt to start a complete re-write of a section that had been removed by a third user because it was uncited (see the removal and my rewrite ). -- Nikodemos 19:59, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

    User:Commodore Sloat reported by User:Isarig (Result: 24h)

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

    Time report made: 20:34, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: Isarig's assertion that 01:59, 14 October 2006 was the version reverted to, is incorrect. In particular, the version is not identical to the version he claims is the baseline version. The current definition of revert given here WP:3RR is as follows:

    The result will be that the page becomes identical to how it used to be at some previous time. A partial revert undoes only some of those changes.

    In summary, the definition currently says identical, and these versions are not all identical to the baseline version. Therefore I believe no blocking action should be taken in this instance. Nevertheless, I would ask that another admin please review this opinion. --CSTAR 21:56, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

    PS. I've left a note for User:William M. Connolley to request a review.--CSTAR 22:10, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

    This is a complex revert, in that User:Commodore Sloat's changes have spanned a time period where other changes have also taken place (including changes be him to other sections). Nevertheless, the relevant part is the footnote, which in the baseline version reads "The Middle East Quarterly characterizes its mission as follows: "In the halls of academe, the Quarterly delivers a welcome balance to the many materials that relentlessly attack the United States and Israel.", and to this version it has been identically reverted by User:Commodore Sloat 4 times, as the diffs show.

    Comments: User seems to have a problem with the use of the use of "Michael Schumacher insisted he had not made an error" instead of "Michael Schumacher insisted he was innocent," believing the first statement to be slanderous towards Michael Schumacher. However if Michael Schumacher believed he was innocent of cheating (the event that is being discussed), then the only logical conclusion is that he made an error instead of intentionally cheating. Therefore the statement is not slanderous, nor is there any real need to have it changed or to have the news article that was added removed.

    User also believes that the addition of the news article about other teams in the sport complaining is somehow in violation of Misplaced Pages's policies when it is in fact a well documentated fact.

The first edit is a complete blanking of the information. Edit 2 and 3 are replacing the criticism with praise. And edit 4 removes one of the critical sentences, and replaces it with one of the praises (the other praise is moved to another section in another edit, and one criticism is left in).

    Comments: A content dispute (whether the Pink Ranger is second-in-command, not pure vandalism, so 3RR applies here.

    I was dealing with an editor who has been blocked multiple times in the past for inserting false information and generally not helping the project. It can be construed as vandalism. Ryūlóng (竜龍) 04:18, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
    3RR can only be contravened in the case of "pure, simple vandalism" which this was not. Hbdragon88 05:08, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
    Still, this is also several hours after the fact. Neither myself nor the IP editor have touched that article in nearly ten hours. 3RR is not punitive. Ryūlóng (竜龍) 05:10, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

    The spirit of the 3RR is to stop edit warring altogether, which usually entails a talk page dicussion (whcih wsan't even started). A 3RR is a 3RR. Hbdragon88 05:35, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

    I did not "refuse." I didn't see your note at all until I had been blocked. I have other things to do in life besides edit wikipedia -- check my user history and you will see no edits between your note and your reporting of my 3rr violation (how much time did elapse between the two anyway?) If you wanted to show good faith you would have waited for a response rather than gaming the rules. My report is not in "bad faith" -- I clearly indicate above why I think a block is warranted even though it is technically not a 3RR violation. As you can see here, the 3RR "does not imply that reverting three times or fewer is acceptable. Users may be blocked for edit warring or disruption even if they do not revert more than three times per day."--csloat 20:27, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
    Since you have now fianlly taken the time to read WP:3RR, I'm sure you noticed this: "Historical incidents are of no interest — please do not report anything other than current and ongoing problems." Isarig 20:32, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
    • No violation. If it had been 4 reverts in 24 hours and 5 minutes you might have had a stronger case. On top of that, this is an old case already. Jayjg 20:38, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
    It's only an old case because I was blocked for 24 hours for revert warring. This is a problem with the process here -- when only one party in a revert war is blocked, it appears as an administrative endorsement of that side of the war.--csloat 22:47, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

    ISARIG lives to abuse 3RR good faith editors and WP itself for another day. A sad occasion for WP, Maybe time for Citizendium. Best Wishes Will314159 01:44, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: User was blocked for 3RR on the page a couple days ago. After the block was over, he returned to the page adding POV content, and deleting other verifiable information. He's been asked to come talk on the talk page, but ignores all requests for discussion. -- Jeff3000 02:21, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
