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.

See this guide for instructions on creating diffs for this report.
If you see that a user may be about to violate the three-revert rule, consider warning them by placing {{subst:uw-3rr}} on their user talk page.

You must notify any user you have reported.

You may use {{subst:An3-notice}} ~~~~ to do so.

You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

Additional notes

When reporting a user here, your own behavior will also be scrutinized. Be sure you understand WP:REVERT and the definitions below first.
The format and contents of a 3RR/1RR report are important, use the "Click here to create a new report" button below to have a report template with the necessary fields to work from.
Possible alternatives to filing here are dispute resolution, or a request for page protection.
Violations of other restrictions, like WP:1RR violations, may also be brought here. Your report should include two reverts that occurred within a 24-hour period, and a link to where the 1RR restriction was imposed.

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.

User:RCS reported by User:The Fat Man Who Never Came Back (Result:12h)

Previous version reverted to: 18:28, 19 January 2007
1st revert: 18:32, 19 January 2007 RCS
2nd revert: 18:38, 19 January 2007
3rd revert: 19:07, 19 January 2007
4th revert: 19:17, 19 January 2007
5th revert: 19:21, 19 January 2007

There may have been a lot more than this that I missed

Diff of 3RR warning: 19:17, 19 January 2007

Comments: Sorry if my report was formatted incorrectly. I don't normally report people on this board. Subject was warned about 3RR policy. ~~Although I'm not sure if he's considered "new,"~~ he clearly read my warning (and repsonded to it on my talk page), and continued reverting.--The Fat Man Who Never Came Back 19:36, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Looking at his contriubtions, it's clear RCS is not a new user and should have been well aware of 3RR prior to my warning.--The Fat Man Who Never Came Back 19:55, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Reply : The Fat Man Who Never Came Back popped up in the middle of a conflict and took party for the wrong side. If you look at the history of the page, you'll see that some IP's (later appearing under an username) just don't want the 6ft 4 section to be kept deleted as it was for good reason for several days already. I don't know what's on The Fat Man Who Never Came Back's mind, but he certainly ain't an honest broker. RCS 07:00, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

I did not want to block at this juncture, but RCS continues disruption by revert-warring. The duration of the block is 12 hours. — Nearly Headless Nick 09:56, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

No, i did not continue (is this warring ?), but obviously Nick is either plain inept or plain dishonest. What a laughable administrator you are, anyway ! With people like you ruling , Musharraf or his successor will have his way. Okay, i admit this is harsh. Cheers RCS 08:10, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

User:Aquarelle reported by User:Grcampbell (Result: warning)

Previous version reverted to: 02:30, 19 January 2007
1st revert: 02:56, 18 January 2007
2nd revert: 12:41, 18 January 2007
3rd revert: 23:35, 18 January 2007
4th revert: 02:30, 19 January 2007

No warning was given though this is an established user that is more than aware of Misplaced Pages policies. (I also believe that it is a sockpuppet of User:Hardouin

Comments: Reverting to a version using French whilst discussion is taking place regarding this very issue at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_France#Anglicisation. Other editors have ceased editing these articles for this issue to be resolved yet this user is continuing to edit. Clear bad faith editing. --Bob 20:12, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

My reversions were to the previously established version which came before user:Grcampbell's controversial edits. No evidence that other editors have refrained from editing this articles : they are not often modified. I violated the 3RR by 30 minutes after confusing UTC with UTC+1 (where I live), my apologies. I am not a sockpuppet, and I resent the libelous, unmitigated accusation. --Aquarelle 20:28, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

The fact you were waiting for 24 hours to pass does not negate the accusation of edit warring. 24-hours is a guideline, not a hard rule, trying to argue that edits fall just outside or inside a 24-hr window is wikilawyering. --Matthew 23:18, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Warning. I'll issued Aquarelle a warning. Let's leave it there. Bucketsofg 04:00, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

User:Aquarelle reported by User:Grcampbell (Result: warning)

Previous version reverted to: 02:31, 19 January 2007
1st revert: 03:08, 18 January 2007
2nd revert: 12:41, 18 January 2007
3rd revert: 23:35, 18 January 2007
4th revert: 02:31, 19 January 2007

No warning was given though this is an established user that is more than aware of Misplaced Pages policies. (I also believe that it is a sockpuppet of User:Hardouin as the user reverts to French when he is upset, edits almost exclusively on France related articles and Hardouin has a history of suspected sockpuppetry, although nothing has been proved to my knowledge. Weak evidence, but that is neither here nor there for this abuse of the 3RR). User is now trolling my talk page. --Bob 20:12, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

I've warned Aquarelle. Bucketsofg 04:03, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

User:TharkunColl reported by User:MarkThomas (Result:No block, warned)

Previous version reverted to:
1st revert: 19:00, 16 January 2007
2nd revert: 19:09, 16 January 2007
3rd revert: 19:13, 16 January 2007
4th revert: 23:58, 16 January 2007
5th revert: 12:26, 17 January 2007
6th revert: 14:59, 17 January 2007

Comments: User is involved in an edit war on United Kingdom to do with not replacing the infobox map. He has been blocked before for 3RR and has had many similar warnings on other pages, see User talk:TharkunColl for details.

This is not true. I uploaded many different maps, and at no time reverted to the same one more than twice. However, User:MarkThomas has indeed reverted to the same map more than 3 times in a 24 hour period, and even removed the official warning I gave him on his talk page. TharkunColl 23:55, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

It is true that in several of the cases above TharkunColl made subtle changes to the map he uploaded in a deliberate effort to avoid 3RR, but each time he was reverting the same Euro-map which is the bone of contention. If I've transgressed it was in an effort to stop this flagrant breach of Misplaced Pages rules, and would be happy to accept a block for it. MarkThomas 23:57, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

No, this is a travesty of what I actually did. I made a map and uploaded it, then the following day made a very different map because people had expressed an opinion to show the EU. The only person who broke the 3RR rule is User:MarkThomas. I did not report him, because in my opinion crying to the teacher is petty. TharkunColl 00:03, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

It's really pointless you going on like this Tharkun - the admins can see the log of diffs for themselves and will be able to decide on the evidence. MarkThomas 00:04, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Absolutely! I have made a number of different maps based on what was discussed. All you did was revert to the same map. TharkunColl 00:10, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Except it wasn't just me, you were busy changing reverts by other editors too, as you are doing tonight on United Kingdom. MarkThomas 00:14, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

You reverted to the same map four times. I listed the times you did this on your talk page, but you deleted it (twice). I have proposed a succession of different maps based on the discussion for that day. I have not uploaded any map more that 3 times in 24 hours. You, on the other hand, uploaded the same map 4 times. TharkunColl 00:31, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

This is the place where I inserted the official warning onto User:MarkThomas's talk page for breaking 3RR (it also lists the times that he broke it) . He deleted my warning, and deleted it again when I put it back. User:MarkThomas appears to be under the impression that he has achieved some sort of consensus regarding the European maps issue, but this is very far from the case as a perusal of Talk:European Union will reveal. My intention was to create a better map for the United Kingdom article, and each new one I created was based on discussions held at Talk:United Kingdom over a period of three days. User:MarkThomas, however, apparently felt that he had an overriding right to continually remove my maps, based on discussions he had had on a different talk page - and in so doing breached 3RR. My own opinion is that an appropriate map always enhances Misplaced Pages, but a shoddy one devalues it. To see a selection of maps that I have created, including the three different ones under discussion here, please see my user page User:TharkunColl. TharkunColl 09:36, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Comment: Dismiss. This is not a 3RR case but a content dispute. I suggest both users take a deep breath and discuss the matter on the relevant talk pages. --Asterion 09:53, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

(editconflict) :As I can see discussion on the talk page of the article, and you seem to have reached an agreement as to the usage of the image, no blocks will be issued at this time. However, blocks will be used as a preventive measure to deter editors from edit-warring further. Best regards, — Nearly Headless Nick 09:54, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

User:Sarvagnya reported by User:RaveenS (Result: no block)

4th revert: 19:55 January 19, 2007

Comments: The above mentioned user has been blocked prior to this. Others have in the past complained about his behavior number of times . In the above mentioned article he is in edit war with others and has personally attacked other Wikipedians. He has called other editors “apologists of terror groups” and I have tried to reason with the editor to allow the wiki process to take it it cause but he refuses to let a request for comment to resolve this issue harmoniously instead keeps reverting the article. In the last 48 hours he had reverted it 4 times.RaveenS 22:55, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

admin note. No block, reversions over more than 24 hours. Bucketsofg 04:17, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

71.139.4.32 reported by Griot (Result: no block)

4th revert: 01:34, 19 January 2007 71.139.4.32 (Talk)

Comments: User has repeatedly reverted over a period of several weeks. I have placed 3 Rule warnings on his/her page, but they were ignored. Griot 22:32, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Admin comment. There's not much point in a 3RR block, since this user obviously is resetting his/her IP regularly. A semi-protect will stop the shenanigens for a while. Bucketsofg 04:28, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

User:William Mauco reported by User:MariusM (Result:Page protected)

Previous version reverted to: 19 Jan 12:56

For more complex reverts it may be necessary to provide a previous-version for each revert. -->

1st revert: 19 Jan 14:34
2nd revert: 19 Jan 14:49
3rd revert: 19 Jan 22:29
4th revert: 19 Jan 23:14

Necessary only for new users: Not a new user

Comments: Check also user's block log. All reverts are about removing a "border issue" section, which was agreed in Talk by 4 editors (me, User:Dl.goe, User:Dpotop and User:TSO1D) , but with which User:William Mauco don't agree. Some of reverts are also about removing other information. I have to mention that "border issues" section was a stable part of this unstable article from 2 September until end of December and its removal was one of the reasons of the edit war which was the cause of article protection for 3 weeks.--MariusM 00:38, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

I made four edits, and not all four were clearcut reverts. The page was protected until less than 24 hours ago. Instead of seeking consensus in Talk, User:MariusM waited until it was unprotected. Then he immediately launched onto the page and made 9 major edits within 7 hours. It is not just a "border issues" section, as he claims, and he did not wait for consensus. In fact, some of the editors whom he cites are involved with me in an ongoing and very constructive discussion on how to improve this section in Talk:Transnistria right now. May I also request that you look closely at the DIFFs which he provides, as one of them shows an alternate border issues section added by me (and proposed by another user) which had broader support and consensus on the talk page. - Mauco 00:58, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

All 4 are reverts, at least regarding "border issues" section. There is no alternative border issue section added by Mauco. Some are also reverts regarding US Department of State position or of usage of word "officially" regarding Pridnestrovie name for Transnistria. All issues were long discussed in Talk. Anybody who check my edit count can see that I have a lot more edits in Talk pages than in mainspaces, the claim that I don't seek consensus in talk is fake.--MariusM 01:23, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Nishkid has protected the talk page; also a good amount of time has elapsed since you engaged in edit-warring. I do not see blocks as being useful. Both the users have breached WP:3RR; and will not be subjected to leniency next time. — Nearly Headless Nick 09:48, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

User:MariusM reported by User:William Mauco (Result:Page protected)

7th revert: 14:59, 19 January
8th revert: 21:32, 19 January
9th revert: 22:51, 19 January

Necessary only for new users: Not a new user, but I warned him anyway out of courtesy:

Comments: Cronic edit warrior, see his block log. Frequent use of uncivil and/or misleading edit comments. Background: Transnistria was under full protection due to previous revert warring. Many of us are in the process of working out the issues in Talk at this point in time, and making progress. Protection was prematurely lifted in 19 Jan at 12:56. Immediately thereafter, User:MariusM took advantage of this by falsely claiming "consensus" when there was none, adding disputed pet POV items, and removing of stable features of the article. Despite nine edits in seven or eight hours, he was notably unwilling to seriously discuss most of this in the same period in the article's Talk page where I and other editors meanwhile kept working on developing acceptable phrasing, with a lot of progress. - Mauco 01:12, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Only 5th, 8th and 9th are reverts, rest are edits long discussed in talk. Some of them are consecutive edits for different part of the article (you can see my name in previous edit). In fact, Mauco want to have veto rights for all Transnistria-related articles. Talk page is showing that the majority of editors accepted the changes that I added, only Mauco was against, he broke the 3RR (see above report) and I had to revert him. I stopped at 3 reverts.--MariusM 01:33, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

As an example of bad faith by the person who reported me, he agreed to remove the paragraph "Transnistria in popular culture" , however now he listed the agreed edit as my 4th revert. Also, he agreed to split the "violent incidents" section in "antisemitic incidents" and "explosions" but now he is reporting this agreed edit as my 3rd revert.--MariusM 02:06, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Comments: After some rigmarole and prior edit warring (admittedly), an agreeable version of the article -- namely about Mexico's location in the Americas -- has surfaced. However, this user continues to revert to a biased version and eliminate unrelated edits (which are cited), is rather beligerent, has been warned by me and another editor about etiquette, and is also deliberately trying to incite an edit war and get me 'banned', soliciting assistance from another editor (translation: he's 'tiring' of me); also consult talk page.

Comments: Anonymous editor persists in writing an inflammatory trolling comment on the Talk:Ass to mouth, in spite of warnings and explanations. In between those reverts, a tag was added to the top of the page explaining that this article had survived an AfD, in the hope that this would convince the anon editor to stop the trolling. That intermediate version is now the "previous version reverted to", not the earlier version prior to the trolling edits.

He has been reverted by a group of (I think 5, maybe 4) editors now. Please block him as he is not helping improve the article just making wide ranging comments about the site.-Localzuk 23:59, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

request 24 hrs block for 3RR and another 24 hrs for disruption

2007-01-20T22:21:02 Sandstein (Talk | contribs | block) blocked "VictorO (contribs)" with an expiry time of 1 week (vandalism) William M. Connolley 00:32, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Not vandalism. I have approached Sandstein to reduce the duration of the block as this was the first fault of the user. — Nearly Headless Nick 10:18, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Per the discussion below regarding his fellow edit warrior and on Nick's request, I've reduced the block to 24h for 3RR. Sandstein 10:24, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

(edit conflict)OK, Sandstein has responded below. However, this user was not vandalising, and was blocked because he was reported on WP:ANI. And since the user below was not blocked, I am going to unblock this user and leave him with a warning. I am going to continue discussion with Sandstein on this. — Nearly Headless Nick 10:26, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Look, now that you have agreed that it was not vandalism, it is only appropriate to unblock VictorO, as the user below was not blocked for the violation of WP:3RR. In case they feel like returning to revert-warring, we can reinstate preventive blocks again. Thanks. — Nearly Headless Nick 10:29, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Okay, feel free to unblock him. Although one could just as well block the other guy too, their editwarring is no longer going on and so blocks on either side appear to be no longer required. This is getting to be a waste of our time, even though I was less than perfectly diligent, I guess, in slapping the "vandal" label on this case at the outset. Sandstein 11:04, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Request 24 hrs block for 3RR violation and another 24 hrs for disruption

In view of the prev block for vandalism, no block William M. Connolley 00:34, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

This user was as disrupting as the other, reverting without seeking consensus, on an an item that is disputed and that is being discussed. I would request a re-assesment of the unblock. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 00:40, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

I made my determination purely on the basis of the other edits being decreed vandalism. I'm happy for others to look at this users edits, though William M. Connolley 00:44, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

William, It is unacceptable that a user can get way with violating 3RR, by claiming that he is "reverting vandalism". The material that one was adding and the other removing, is currently being discussed by other editor's at that article's talk page. New users need to learn not to engage in edit wars, and I had hoped that both editwarriors be blocked for 48hrs or more. I would appreciate another pair of eyes to reassess the unblock. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 00:47, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

If I may speak in my own defense, I attempted to open discussion with my fellow editors through the edit notes and submitted requests for dialogue and ultimately warnings on users' talk pages. Two admins reviewing this situation, William M. Connolley and Sandstein, seem to be in agreement that the reverts were vandalism, and that I therefore shouldn't be banned. Is it really necessary to continue soliciting additional opinions? Mael-Num 02:15, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

I was asked to comment here. I can't see how the edits that were reverted could count as vandalism. It looks like a regular content dispute about whether the external links were appropriate, and as such I see it as a clear 3RR violation. SlimVirgin 02:34, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Am I to take it now that Jossi is privately soliciting opinions to have me removed from participating in the Prem Rawat article, while pro-Rawat editors simultaneously rip the article apart? . As it is, due to this spurious set of accusations, my hands are tied in protecting long-stable material that has consensus for being there. Am I the only one who finds all this a teensy bit suspect? Mael-Num 03:00, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

"long stable material"? The material about which you edit warred was added yesterday. Rather than revert each other and violate 3RR, you could have discussed rather than accusing a fellow editor of vandalism, to get him blocked as you did here. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 03:07, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes, the material being removed in my examples above has, for at least several months, been part of the article Criticism of Prem Rawat, which despite consensus being against merging, was suddenly (and expertly) merged by a previously uninvolved editor, with no prior indication that this was to be done and no apparent solicitation of his help or advice. I could show that there was no consensus for this move, and that the material was stable, but all information was expunged from Criticism of Prem Rawat, so I have no evidence to give. I noted the behavior of vandalism, and followed proceedure, and the involved admin agreed with my assessment and took appropriate steps. Mael-Num 03:28, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

No material was deleted in the merge by a third-party editor. In any case, note that this board is not to discuss content disputes, Mael, but to look into violations of WP:3RR and disruption. 03:53, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

That is a straw man argument. I never claimed it was deleted in the merge, but stated explicitly that it is occurring now, after the (unexpected and contested) move occurred. I offer this information not to seek resolution on it but so that investigating admins may more readily understand the "bigger picture" of events involved. Why are you trying to minimize this point and misrepresent my argument? Mael-Num 04:21, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Because there is no excuse to editwarring, and no excuse to disrupting Misplaced Pages to make a point, as you did with your six reverts and spurious "vandalism" reports and sockpuppet acussation. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 04:52, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

And that's the reason for misrepresenting my argument? Quite Machiavellian, IMO. Mael-Num 05:49, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Also note that William did not support the block, just unblocked you because of the allegations of vandalism upon which Sandstein blocked your edit warring partner. He asked for other admins to take a look and did not oppose a review. My opinion is that both of you should be blocked for 24 hrs for 3RR violation and another 24hrs for disruption. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 03:11, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Are you suggesting that William didn't look into the matter and make a judgement on his own? Mael-Num 03:28, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Read what he says, Mael "I made my determination purely on the basis of the other edits being decreed vandalism. I'm happy for others to look at this users edits". ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 03:50, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

So you're saying that, in William's judgement, it's likely that another admin's decision that it was vandalism was probably a good decision? Or are you saying that William just closed his eyes and started mashing buttons? Mael-Num 05:47, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

And finally, I would ask you to be cautious with your accusations of socket puppetry as you did here. If you have such suspicions place a request at WP:RFCU and provide the necessary evidence as per policy. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 03:18, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

I wouldn't have blocked VictorO for vandalism either. Both parties appear to have violated 3RR. Both should be blocked for 24 hours; longer if they're engaged in other disruption, or if they've been blocked several times already for 3RR. SlimVirgin 02:37, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

That's an odd opinion, given that he received warnings of vandalism both on his talk page and in the comments section of the article's history. I know for a fact that he saw the vandalism notices in history, as he mimicked them back to me. Mael-Num 05:26, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

I would ask that admins checking this board, implement a 24 to 48 hr block on both users. VictorO (talk · contribs) to be unblocked and re-blocked and Mael-Num (talk · contribs) to be blocked for the same period. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 04:58, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

I'd be willing to block both for 24 hours, but I don't like undoing other admins' work if they object, so I'll put a note on William's and Sandstein's talk pages and ask for their opinion. SlimVirgin 05:02, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

So, just so I'm clear on this, you don't see a decision as being vandalism even if vandalism warnings were made, attempts to dialogue attempted, and blanking of cited material continuing despite a big "final warning" being placed on the user page? I guess it's a good thing Jossi called you for a second opinion then! Mael-Num 05:26, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

(De-indent) I was the admin blocking VictorO (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) for 1 week on an AIV request by Mael-Num, and now I've been requested to comment here. As far as I could then tell, VictorO was repeatedly removing large amounts of content that looked prima facie quite valid and that did not appear to be unsourced libelous material, without engaging in any discussion about it. Looking closer though, it's probably better to characterise this as a content dispute about the appropriateness of external links, as SlimVirgin does. So, now what?

I'd not reduce the block on VictorO until he actually complains about it. When he posts an {{unblock}} message, we'll have a request to consider.
I can see how it could have been justified to have also blocked his fellow edit warrior for 3RR (with which policy, I'll have to admit, I don't have a lot of experience). I'm just not sure what the point would be to do this now, as the edit war is perforce over now. In my understanding of WP:BP blocks are ever only preventative and not punitive in nature.

At any rate, the time spent here might be better spent on the article talk page discussing the appropriateness of the content at issue. I hope these comments have been helpful and I'll not revert any action of SlimVirgin that they might want to take in this issue. Best, Sandstein 07:51, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Note that VictorO seems to be a newbie and the block template you placed, does not have the wording for requesting an unblock. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 08:02, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

If the ruling was that VictorO was blocked for vandalism, I don't see how another editor should be punished for removing such said vandalism. Smee 08:10, 21 January 2007 (UTC).

VictorO has been unblocked. No point in blocking this user; lot of time has already elapsed. Continue discussion on talk page of the article. — Nearly Headless Nick 11:30, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Let me clarify my position... first, I thought I'd made it clear that if anyone wanted to reblock M-N, I was happy with that. Second, It is unacceptable that a user can get way with violating 3RR, by claiming that he is "reverting vandalism" isn't true: there is a reverting-vandalism exception, and since VO was blocked for vandalism, it seemed reasonable to invoke it. However, it may well have been inappropriate in this case William M. Connolley 12:22, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks William, for the clarification. Sure, we have an exception in reverting vandalism, but when claims of vandalism are made to obfuscate one's editwarring, that is surely not acceptable. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 18:21, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

I wasn't relying on M-N's claims, but on the fact that VO was blocked for vandalism William M. Connolley 18:51, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Šarūnas Jasikevičius‎ is a Golden State Warriors player, as he played his first game with them recently. If he is not aware of this, that's too bad - ignorance about a subject is not an excuse for reverting.
Šarūnas Jasikevičius‎ was born in 1976, when Lithuania was then part of the former Soviet Union (whether anyone likes it or not).

First of all there is no WP:3RR violation. Second if you asking information stop reverting peoples, because they can`t produce ref then they are all time reverted. Second if you had any interest you could find universal information which you deleting in several articles like this one: Linor Abargil. Second hiding proper category is not very constructive, your statment such as only because you do not know is unaccountable, btw he scored 10 points in this team. second on your "statment" He was born in 1976, when Lithuania as we know it was then part of the Soviet Union while yes, this why in article is written Lithuanian SSR now Lithuania; missed this one too? So next time before reverting edits better go under proper investigation.

Comments: This is a repost and expansion of a similar report above. Anonymous editor persists in writing an inflammatory trolling comment on the Talk:Ass to mouth, in spite of warnings and explanations. He was blocked for 24 hours. During that time, he promised on his talk page to resume previous activity after 24h passed. His last comment on the talk page indicates he will resume this activity under a sockpuppet account if the IP is banned again. I personally don't care at this point, just reporting 3RR because it happened; he probably won't cause trouble if his little message can only appear on the talk page. =Axlq 05:56, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

This user has been warned on is talk page and on the article page.
Comment This user does not assume good faith and is ignoring WP:CIVIL by leaving messages such as "Never use the "Minor edit" button to attempt to disguise reversions. And while I'm here, the "oh I forgot to fill in the Edit summary box" is not very convincing I'm afraid." when I forgot to write in an edit summary, or in his edit summary calls other edits "blatant vandals" when Talk:Vancouver its clear they're trying to help. Please help. Mkdw 12:15, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

A discussion is ongoing on the Talk:Vancouver page to try to reach consensus on the structure of the Twinned cities section. User:Mkdw is attempting to implement changes to that section before consensus has been reached on the Talk page. User:Mkdw appears to misunderstand the nature of 3RR. I only made three reversions on 21 Jan, and the 4 edits of today are reverting different things. The first two were reverting a table that is still under discussion at Talk, and (after User:Mkdw accepted that we should restore the article to the condition it was in before the POV warring began) the 2nd two were restoring the status quo prior to an IP account first mucking about with the relevant section on 25 December. --Mais oui! 12:24, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

You're skipping out the point that you're reverting to the version that was 'mucked' with and started the controversy. I'm trying to prevent your reverts by reverting it to the version before it was mucked with. Mkdw 12:31, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

That is just not true. You persistently try to apply intermediate changes to the article, trying to pre-empt the discussion on the Talk page. The Vancouver article's twinned cities section was first mucked about with by an IP address on 25 December. The pre-25 December version should stand until/unless consensus is reached at Talk. All other editors are happy to discuss this issue, but you repeatedly try to implement changes prior to consensus. Please desist. --Mais oui! 12:40, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

The changes I reverted to were from 13:00, December 2, 2006. That's pre-25 Dec. and has 2 flags. The version you're reverting to is Dec 25 with 1 flag. The whole issue is about having 2 or 1 flags and for as long as I've been an editor to the article, around Dec 25 and moreso Jan is when the whole issue of removing the 2nd flag really came out. Still doesn't mean you can do it in a civil way. Also, you keep saying "you" when you are the only one reverting to that version. Everyone else: User:Bobanny, User:Carson Lam, User:Kanaye, User:Langara College, User:Lofty, and myself have been adding to the article or reverting your edits. No one else but you is reverting back to that version. You keep talking about concensus, but you're forcing non-concensus by reverting everyone's work. You even reverted User:Carson Lam's work that had nothing to do with that section and he was forced to revert it back again. Mkdw 13:08, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

So, your case is based on: "we should revert it back to the version that existed when I first started editing the article"?!? Heavens above! Please read WP:OWN. At no point did I remove the work of another editor - show us the diff. However, you did remove my edit under the guise of reverting the History of Vancouver section. This is a preposterous waste of everybody's time. I have only just realised how little you understand about policy and protocol here at Misplaced Pages. --Mais oui! 13:15, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Today's 4 edits all seem to be directed towards the flag issue and I suspect it is a violation of the 3rr. There's obviously something of an edit war going on, anyway, and it certainly is a preposterous waste of everybody's time. On the other hand, it has been entertaining in one sense- I am laughing myself silly at the gross hypocrisy on display here- "implement changes...before consensus has been reached on the Talk page". One of these editors has a history of making spam alterations, often controversial, sometimes major, and usually politically motivated, and almost invariably without any prior warning or attempt to build consensus. Attempts to initiate discussions with him are often ignored, and he has himself in the past been known to deliberately revert efforts to revert to the status quo pending discussion, in a blatant effort to ensure that his own preferred version is maintained- regardless of consensus. The pot is very much calling the kettle black here. Badgerpatrol 14:56, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Mais oui! did not revert any of my rather mundane ISBN additions. Carson 19:30, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

I have been advised on my Talk page to self-revert by an Admin (User:William M. Connolley), and have just done so. He clearly thinks that I have actually breached 3RR; however after re-reading 3RR for the umpteenth time, I disagree; and so does another Admin: User:Wangi. Anyway, the developing consensus on the Talk page is to get rid of all these stupid flags, per WP:FLAGS, so I await a common-sense outcome to this tedious idiocy. --Mais oui! 23:22, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Its blindingly obviously 4R: of the last 4, 2 are marked "rv" and two "restore" William M. Connolley 23:54, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

And how on earth is that a breach of 3RR? They were not "rv"ing the same things! --Mais oui! 00:02, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

That comment of mine wasn't intended to imply I thought it was a 3RR violation, or the opposite (I didn't want to get involved with the 3RR report). I was only pointing out to Mkdw that the first set of "reverts" they linked to were outwith the 24hr period that the other four were in... And it doesn't matter really if it's different things you were reverting, see WP:3RR#What is a revert?: "An editor does not have to perform the same revert on a page more than three times to breach this rule; all reverts made by an editor on a particular page within a 24 hour period are counted". Best guideline to stick to is 1RR! Ta/wangi 10:32, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Diff of 3RR warning: DIFFTIME

Comments: This is related to a guy named Ahmad Nishitoba who has been harassing other editors consistently along with his small group of followers. He has started his own group called USN - United Submitters Nation, www.usn2161.net; and has been repeatedly forcing his groups website on the Rashad Khalifa Wikipage while removing the editing of others. If you look at the history, has has been blocked for the same behavior in the past, and he just figured a way around the block by using different user IP addresses, but the edits are always the same. He is wasting Misplaced Pages staff time and other editor's time. Other editors have discussed the issue of his USN website, and consensus is against putting it on this page. He and his few group members refuse to concede to the consensus of other editors, and harrass the others by constantly removing/ changing their edits without reason or scholarly discussion. Is there a way to give him his own Wikipage? That way he and his group can edit it to their liking.

Please note that I was engaging in talk profusely and providing much citations of Misplaced Pages policy. Also note that the diffs above don't illustrate a true 3RR violation. They are all different edits except for two. Finally, with regard to my last and only 3RR block, please make note that the admin later admitted that he/she made a mistake in issuing the block and apologized. I add this to let you know that I am a considerate editor not interested in engaging in needless edit wars. My intention here was to help a hostile newbie better understand Wiki policy; and never did I violate 3RR. Thanks for your consideration. Levine2112 03:33, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

He was warned after the second of the above reverts, and accused of even more ("You were already over yesterday, 8RR by my count"). He has a history of 3RR warnings (e.g. ) and in a recent arbitration case was found to have edit warred and cautioned by the ArbCom. Tim Smith 18:47, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Well no, the edit reason was *not* rv in all cases; and its not clear why is a revert William M. Connolley 09:49, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

That edit (#3) reverts the previous edit, adding back the sentence that was removed. #4 adds the sentence again. #1 removes a quote added a few hours earlier, and #2 reverts the previous edit. Seems clear enough. Tim Smith 18:47, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

This near-constant badgering of User:ScienceApologist by you at cases where you are only marginally involved, like here and previously at his RFAR, strikes me as a pattern coming perilously close to wikistalking. I'm becoming troubled by this pattern, particularly in light of the other recent issues. FeloniousMonk 18:51, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Who is "you"? I'm generally on SA's "side", but I would just like this to quiet down for a bit. (He had some other near-reverts, but I thought those were fairly clear. If I'm wrong, I apologize to SA and to the reviewing admin.) — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 19:34, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Not you Arthur, but Tim Smith. He sadly has a troubling history of coincidently popping up at unrelated discussions scrutinizing the actions of others he's been involved in content disputes elsewhere and rushing to aid of the attacker, such as Langan. FeloniousMonk 19:56, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

I was surprised that this was listed, but I looked through these carefully and I count only 3 reverts (the first one is not a revert, I just removed a few choice phrases in an honest-to-goodness attempt to collaboratively edit). I know I'm jutting up against the limit (and WMC wisely counseled me to stick to 1RR, which I'm attempting to do to avoid these kinds of nasty bouts), but as can be seen from the other listings here, there is a lot of squabbling happening at Quackwatch right now. However, today seemed to be a bit better. We may be turning the corner. What I really find distasteful is User:Tim Smith's advocacy. Not only did he misrepresent my edits in his post in an attempt to get me blocked, he continues to goad, bait, and Wikistalk me. Luckily, until now, he has been only a minor fly in the ointment, but as he becomes more and more savvy with Misplaced Pages, I'm afraid he may be more of a problem. Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Tim Smith should continue to document his obsessive behavior in this regard. --ScienceApologist 02:19, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

#1, like the others, is clearly a revert. Hours earlier, ScienceApologist had removed the quote beginning "At least 3"; it had then been restored. In #1, ScienceApologist removed it again, reverting the restoration. By the way, I didn't file this report. I saw Arthur Rubin's comment about not being able to find an earlier 3RR warning, and having (unfortunately) firsthand experience with ScienceApologist's history in that regard, thought I would offer some background and comment on the diffs, which seem clear enough.

Comments: Scorpion0422 has been targeting the article for Survivor contestant J.P. Calderon and this constant revision is spillover from that. I added Calderon to the Survivor contestant template and Scorpion reverted it. It was restored and reverted four times and the fifth time I restored the information I noted in the edit note the three-revert rule. Additionally I placed a note on the article's talk page advising Scorpion0422 of the three-revert rule and asking him to stop reverting it (user has been with Misplaced Pages for a year). Under the guise of making a cosmetic edit to the article, Scorpion0422 once again removed the Calderon link from the template. Otto4711 04:11, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Three-revert rule violation on Dikembe Mutombo (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Downwards (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log): 1 2 3 4 5 6 Even after issuing the initial warning (after the 6th revert) and responding to a message requiring (rather ridiculously, if you read the context) my strict adherence to WP:CITE, yet another user tried to reword it to a less "noticeable" statement, which User:Downwards still did not approve of, and proceded to revert as well. I gave him the opportunity to undo hir last reversion here, and am only now, over half an hour after the deadline I set, am I reporting it here...eventhough other users have since stepped in.

A review of User talk:Downwards indicates that this is not the first time this user's "style" has come into direct conflict with WP:3RR, and in light of hir familiarity with WP:CITE and refusal to regard hirself as "bound" by WP:3RR, WP:CON and to some extent WP:CIV, might perhaps require further action. For now, however, I think it necessary to at least report this latest eggregious violation on hir part, so that it is "on the record".

Comments: User continues to remove valid quote and link because he does not want to have Ali seen in a bad light. Different excuses given for these edits: consensus (there was none), he considers the quote an insult, libel, and vandalism.
- user:Animesouth has been posting libelous information without proper citations and not from a neutral point of view under user:Animesouth, user:Uucp and Special:Contributions/143.88.201.123. This and the vandalism by numerous editors has led to the page's protection by an administrator. Steveistheman has only reverted vandalism, as have I, such as this, and have conformed the page to WP:LIVING, an official policy. I suggest Animesouth and the sock puppets review the policies.

  - Page was semi-protected due to actual vandalism (SPAM inserts and nonsense). This issue is unrelated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Streeter777 (talk • contribs)
    - Incorrect. It was an WP:Edit War because various users (assuming they are socks because they added the _same_ material again and again) violated WP:LIVING, WP:NPOV and WP:OR. Seicer (talk) (contribs) 03:14, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Libel in a biography of a living person is vandalism as far as I can tell. I apologize if I overstepped bounds, but Ali's good name is being sullied with the unsubstantiated opinion that he believes in segregation, and the contextual libel that comes from placement of this quote in relation to Ali's religion. Further, User:Animesouth has been causing a *lot* of disruption in the Misplaced Pages here lately, not just related to the Ali article. Stevie is the man! 21:45, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
- This is supposed to be NPOV. There is no concern about a "good name". This is not libel. This is a direct referenced quote that you are removing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Streeter777 (talk • contribs)
  - No, it referred to a paragraph that was taken out of context. The editor added his own commentary, and did not mention the preceding or the following paragraphs which gave indicators as to what Ali was referring to. It's called, "creative snipping." Seicer (talk) (contribs) 03:14, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

I probably should just step away from this situation, but I admit it has just gotten too much under my skin. Basically Quadzilla99 keeps removing my messages from his talk page during the discussion, without moving the comments to another page. This might be speculation on my part, but it seems he just wants to remove the messages from his talk page because it's negative. During my re-reverts I also responded with new messages (my first restoration was to reply to him on his own page, but I had to restore a second time before I even had time to leave my reply). Personally, I don't think I violated 3RR, but I can understand if an admin feels I should have just walked away instead of responding. -- Ned Scott 21:18, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Please tell me you looked at the message I left on his talk page. This is not one of those warning templates or anything like that. Hell, I've removed such messages from my talk page, I definitely know the difference between such messages. The only thing close to a warning was the last comment I left where I said "And please stop removing my messages from your talk page, it's very rude." I initiated discussion on his talk page, he continues on my talk page but selectively removes the discussion from his talk page. That's not archiving, that's not removing unwarranted warning messages, that's misleading. Why else would I care if he kept it on his talk page or not? -- Ned Scott 03:57, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I assume you understand that even though nobody owns their userspace, they are generally given control over it in all but a handful of situations. This is why continual edits to another user's userspace will result in the outside user being blocked and the inside user staying unblocked. I will say that it does look like a strange message to delete, but he isn't ever going to be blocked for a 3RR violation in an incident like this. If this incident should be reported anywhere, is should most likely be reported at WP:AN/I--Wildnox (talk) 04:09, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

As I explained above, wikipedia policy demands that poorly sourced statements of a controverisal nature MUST be immediately removed from any article dealing with living persons. According to wikipedia this is the one time we're allowed to violate the 3 revert rule. We can't allow people citing blogs to make controversial statements about living figures and this is clearly spelled out in wikipedia policy and it's our responsibility as wikipedia users to enforce this policy quite aggressively. I'm all for negotiating with other editors and reaching compromise, but not when it requires us to violate the basic rules upon which wikipedia is built.Vexperiential

Comments: Arthur Rubin has been edit warring on numerous pages related to 9/11 including this template, where he stuck directly to 3RR, the talk page of all places where he violated 3RR and 9/11 conspiracy theories where he again constantly reverts. Can something be done about this disruptive behaviour. Arthur seems to embrace reverting instead of participating in the ongoing discussions, including at one point stating he will not accept any middleground ... He seems to be on a revert spree, and of all places it hit this talk page. --Nuclear~~Zer0~~ 11:39, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Bit weird. Not sure yet. Anyone else should probably read Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration/Zer0faults#Zer0faults_placed_on_Probation first William M. Connolley 12:57, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Not sure what one has to do with the other. Its not ok to violate 3RR unless reverting simple vandalism. This is not the case here and Arthur Rubin vioalted 3RR. Arbcom enforcements are not scarlet letters and cannot be used to break policies. I ask you look at this independantly without letting a previous Arbcom hearing bias your decision. I would also like to point out that I did not violate 3RR. --Nuclear~~Zer0~~ 14:29, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

I would also like to point out that they are not just reverting me but an anon and 2 other users: --Nuclear~~Zer0~~ 14:34, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

All of Nuclear's edits were complex vandalism changing the meaning of my comments by removing formatting, in addition to attempting to restore Usenet-style quoting to the article. At the very least, it made they impossible to make a coherent reply to User:Lovelight's replies to my comments. No other editor's material other than (possibly) User:Lovelight was reverted. And see also Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Arbitration enforcement#User:NuclearUmpf. Those were just a few examples of his edit warring, in addition to format warring here.

In terms of the reverts on {{911ct}}, the anon is User:Bov, so, over the past 3 days, I've only reverted Nuclear, Bov, and Lovelight. One could make the argument that Nuclear's reverts are void under the Arbcom ruling, but that's still only 6 reverts of 2 versions I consider an attempt to damage articles including the template, over 3 days. (The template has since been reverted again by others.) — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 15:51, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

No Arthur, it is you who are throwing nonsense (and stones) instead of arguments, acting robustly, reverting vigorously without addressing point(s) of discussion. To make things perfectly clear, I'm still puzzled about this user bov, don't think we've been introduced and I know very little about his position. I know user Nuclear and I admire his helpful knowledge of WP's, however if we seem to share the same opinion it is not because we have some sort of joint endeavor (as you are constantly, blatantly and regrettably trying to imply). For some reason, you are acting like we are in the middle of some "group agenda"? Why is that? I'm trying hard not to recognize such circus ever since I've joined here… you folks are making it a real effort. It is extremely hard to act decently, to constantly turn the other cheek, while listening to your insults and watching you enforce your irrationalities (just like Orwell; what you are actually doing is: "Almost unconsciously he traced with his finger in the dust on the table: 2+2=5") without any attempt to seek consensus. From any decent perspective, you, Morton, Tom, even Aude.., were running amok yesterday, and if there were some order in this chaos you would loose your driving license for a few days, because you're driving is, if nothing else, then reckless. As for those notes bellow, you shouldn’t talk about consensus if we are talking about revert (edit) wars. Consensus should be reached on talk page (which you've completely ignored), but it might be that I'm mistaken on that. Lovelight 21:18, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Changed the meaning of your edits? you do realize the admin will look at the difs right? I put Lovelights comments back where she put them and added response in front of them in bold so it would stand out that she was responding to the comment, then fixed the numbering since she broke that when replying to you. How did I change the meaning of your words, far stretch Arthur. I do not know how it could have been impossible to just reply under her replies ... you are familiar with using ":" to indent I hope.

Also please note Arbcom rulings do not allow you to ignore my edits. Your arguement that my reverts are void and do not count toward your 3RR is quite wrong. You are not allowed to revert people withuot discussion simply because they have been to Arbcom before. I hope you do not take rulings in such a manner. Rulings are not permission to disrespect your fellow editors and ignore them. --Nuclear~~Zer0~~ 16:50, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

It is also big of you Arthur to admit to reverting against concensus, stating you are reverting 3 people on the same template. --Nuclear~~Zer0~~ 16:51, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

In order:

You changed the meaning of my edits the second and third time by removing the formatting on my reply set, causing the paragraphs to run together. As I had three paragraphs to reply to the four concerns on the second reply, the rethreaded version then would have made no sense.

It's arguable whether the Arbcom ruling makes your tendendtious edits "voidable" or "void". If "void", my reverting them is considered reverting vandalism. If "voidable", it only becomes reverting vandalism retroactively if the Arbcom rules.

And, finally, there is clearly no consensus for either of the two versions of the {{911ct}} template that you reverted to. If I were to count, there were two editors (Bov (and his IP address when he could not log in) and you) for the "Alternative" version, two (Lovelight and you) for the "controlled demolition" version, and 4 (including me) for the "conspiracy theory" version. If there was consensus, it was for the "conspiracy theory" version.

I should add this false claim of consensus to the request for arbcom enforcement. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 17:56, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

You arent seriously counting Morton and Tbeatty who appear on the page once every few days just to revert someone and havent added any content to the template are you? It seems you are actually refusing to participate in discussions and edit warring with 3 people then, I am glad you admitted this. --Nuclear~~Zer0~~ 20:14, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

The interpretation of the arbcom ruling Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration/Sathya_Sai_Baba]] is now treated in a second arbitration case that was triggered by the edit war at Robert Priddy. See Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration/Sathya_Sai_Baba_2/Proposed_decision#Robert_Priddy Both user:Andries and user:SSS108 are parties in this second arbitration case. Andries 19:40, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Comment: Only this edit is covered by the arbcomm case - the others appear to me to remove rather more than just unreliable sources and so are not covered. But that makes 3R by my count William M. Connolley 20:03, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Note on completing a 3RR report:

Copy the template above, the text within but not including <pre>...</pre>
Replace http://DIFFS with a link to the diff and the DIFFTIME with the timestamp
We need to know that there are at least four reverts. List them, and replace http://VersionLink with a link to the version that the first revert reverted to. If the reverts are subtle or different, please provide an explanation of why they are all reverts. Even if the reverts are straightforward, it's helpful to point out the words or sentences being reverted.
Warnings are a good idea but not obligatory
