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.

Comments:

Omor on a massive scale replaced "{{flag|Western Sahara}}" with {{noflag}} ]. User:Koavf then [http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=List_of_countries_by_electricity_exports&diff=next&oldid=547584821 reverted Omor's edits. Omor then reverted the reverts. I today reverted that revert of a revert and asked Omor to discuss if he wanted WP to start using {{noflag}} ] instead of "{{flag|Western Sahara}}". Instead of discussing he re-reverted. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 00:33, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

I just found out that User:Scheridon reverted one of Omor's edits too. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 00:39, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

precision: 1 edit + 1 revert (of a well known POV pusher, aka Koavf) in 48 hours , not a 3R case. --Omar-toons (talk) 00:59, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

1 Omor's edits + 1 revert of Omor's edits + 1 Omor re-reverting + 1 revert of Omor's edits and asking Omor to discuss + 1 Omor's re-reverting (all this on a massive scale across a number of articles). Scheridon arguably adds another revert of Omor's edits and 1 Omor re-reverting. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 01:09, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: Unnecessary; also, 3RR messages are ugly.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: That user filed a dispute in the BLP noticeboard.

Comments:
There have been past discussions about the subject's arrest. They have ignored them in favor of fresher one. See more at Talk:George Maharis. Also, I made request for protection in WP:RPP. --George Ho (talk) 00:47, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

I hope I didn't violate 3RR rule, did I? --George Ho (talk) 01:03, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

• Result: Semiprotected one month. It is up to editor discretion whether this information stays or goes. Factors working against it would be that 'indecency' was one of the charges, but it was dropped and he pleaded guilty only to trespassing. The information about the plea is adequately sourced, but in the past, consensus has often favored excluding such material. The motive for *including* the charge seems to be to allow inference about the actor's sexuality. There is no other mention of his sexuality in the article. 'Being a matter of public record' is not by itself a reason for inclusion. It is awkward if it turns out that Misplaced Pages is the vehicle for outing someone who has not volunteered for that. Consider opening an WP:RFC on the article talk, or on the talk page of a WikiProject. EdJohnston (talk) 16:42, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Are other arrests also banned? For example, the DUI or drug arrests of celebrities? I don't see that. This seems to be banned because it is considered more "distasteful" than those, when it is of equal significance in the celebrity's life. Pee Wee Herman's entry has an entire section on his arrest for exactly the same reason! 50.75.234.202 (talk) 16:54, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

User keeps reverting the sourced content despite the fact that reliability of the source has been established in WP:RSN (link) Kazemita1 (talk) 00:52, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

i am edit warring no more than jazemita who keeps wanting ti add his edit while discussions are still ongoing on RSN with some inresolved issues.Suenahrme (talk) 01:49, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Nothing could be further from truth. The discussion is closed in WP:RSN with no one on your side.Kazemita1 (talk) 23:40, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

No its not closed because there are still questions that need answering on RSN. like why is your so called RS stating that misyar is temporary when it clearly is pernanent. And from that how such permanebt marruage can ever be conpared to tenporary muta and a purely sexual gratification role? Also just because the publisher is RS does it mean that any content no matter how false can be pirtrayed as truth on wiki? All these important issues need discussion & addressing.Suenahrme (talk) 23:56, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

• Result: 24 hours for long-term edit warring. The editor made five reverts since 27 March. I was hoping that discussions would make a block unnecessary, but the editor displays no awareness that he needs reliable sources for article statements. From his comment just above, he *personally knows* that misyar is permanent, therefore Kazemita1's 'so-called RS' has to be mistaken. Since he is sure that he is correct, he goes ahead and removes the source that comes from Oxford University Press, which was already approved at WP:RS/N. EdJohnston (talk) 00:49, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: User_talk:DVMt#3rr

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:

• Talk:Philosophy_of_Chiropractic
• WT:PHILO

Comments:

This has been an ongoing issue with this User:DVMt. First of all, "Philosophy of Chiropractic" isn't philosophy. Second, the references don't support this usage. Third, the content appears to be a way to avoid criticism by people who do not support chiropratic (which is ironic, since otherwise that would be legitimate philosophy). Fourth, why the capitalization? If this doesn't qualify as a 3RR violation, then could someone step in and help out here, please? Greg Bard (talk) 01:26, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

I'm not seeing an actual WP:3RR violation here. You could be wanting to file a complaint about long-term edit warring but that needs more data. Since the editor has already been warned under WP:ARBPS, various restrictions could be imposed if they were justified. It is too soon to tell whether the AfD discussion will allow a separate article on the philosophy of chiropractic. EdJohnston (talk) 00:57, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

• Result: No action for now. See my comment above. EdJohnston (talk) 13:03, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Comments: This is not true. I was simply trying to clean up the page. This person is doing this out of anger.
Ngoesseringer (talk) 11:30, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

• Result: In lieu of blocking two people for 3RR I will close this with no action. It's been 12 hours since the last revert. Be aware that there is no 3RR exception for either adding or removing low-quality sources. Perhaps the AfD discussion will lead to enlightenment. If the dispute continues, the next admin may take a harder look at the conduct of editors. Being new is not a license to behave badly. EdJohnston (talk) 00:40, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: This is the discussion about the same thing that the user was trying to add, I invited him to the talk page

Comments: I have invited the editor to the talk page as there was already a discussion going on about the same topic that this editor wants to add. The editor neither uses his talk page or the article's talk page. We just cannot have a discussion using edit summaries --sarvajna (talk) 10:27, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

• Result: 24 hours for long-term warring. Gzyo wants to give prominent coverage to the Other Backward Caste designation for Narendra Modi, which he repeatedly adds to the article lead. He has inserted or reinserted this information five times since 20 March, so I'm treating this as a case of long-term warrring. Since he never participates on talk pages we can't tell whether his campaign has stopped. EdJohnston (talk) 14:09, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

IP for multiple additions of inconstructive edits. Armbrust for breaking the 3RR (11 reverts made including one which says "looks stupid").

The article is controversial and this one particular user who comes back as different IPs always adds the same offensive and uncivil comment. This probably warrants attention. Pikolas (talk) 04:00, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Page: Republika Srpska (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
User being reported: Bobrayner (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Four reverts inside 24hrs violating 3RR.

• First
• Second
• Third, should have been last for while
• Fourth - please note that this blanket revert also cancelled an intermediate contribution from another editor and no explanation was provided (the summary is just a template per previous edits).

Proof that this is edit-warring is confirmed by the fact that even these four revision immediately follow the first blanking session, there is no indication that this user is on the brink of stopping for a break. Furthermore, conversation is taking place here and these actions have been disruptive for User:FkpCascais too. This is not the only area within the ARBMAC range in which Bobrayner is abusing his free editing privileges but is the only one I wish to concentrate on for the time being. Hopefully the outcome should induce a more constructive side to his editing from here on. Evlekis (Евлекис) (argue) 18:55, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
