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.

• Result: User:Joefromrandb is warned from breaking 3RR on 24 February. There appears to be a long-running dispute on whether certain negative information about Forrest (regarding the degree of his leadership in the KKK and his responsibility for the death of Union soldiers at Fort Pillow) and Joefromrandb has been attempting to ensure what he sees as historical accuracy. If there is a question of the usage of an opinion piece from the New York Times, this might be raised at WP:RSN. EdJohnston (talk) 21:26, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

Comments:

I tried to resolve this on the talk page with the user. Two other users objected to his edits besides myself, and my actions to contain his edits received a "thanks" from a third editor. Now, discussion has broken down as the IP has accused me of "censorship", used all sorts of strawman arguments, and has been soapboxing about how supposedly biased and reliable academia in the "Anglosphere" is. Looking at this , it seems to consist entirely of using almost exclusively Russian sources to either mitigate past episodes of mistreatment of minorities by Russia or blame the victims: namely, on the pages Circassian genocide, anti-Semitism in Russia and Deportation of the Crimean Tatars. Every time, the IP faced pushback from other editors, and edit warred to return the page to his preferred version. Interestingly also, despite showing no visible older history, the IP occasionally displays an expert usage of in-wiki linking, citation styles even in the bibliography and whatnot, which are typically skills acquired by older, registered editors (example: ]). Cheers all, --Calthinus (talk) 04:03, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

I said to the IP in question 5 times , , , , to take their concerns to the talkpage and it took a while before that happened with the IP pursuing its edits first as shown above before changing course. That said, the IP keeps making comments that the article is "biased" and these kinds of comments like "Russia has produced beautiful architecture like Saint Basil's Cathedral, art, ballet, music like Shostakovich and scientists like Lomonosov. Moscow and Petersburg in 1864 were thriving, beautiful cities – what did the Circassians produce at the time? It was not till 1940 when Adyghe State University was established by those evil, hateful, genocidal Russians " on a talkpage meant for discussion around article issues on the Circassian Genocide. The IP's comments on the talkpage either fall on wp:idontlikeit side or the WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS.Resnjari (talk) 14:30, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

• Result: Page semiprotected two months, due to the IP 3RR violation. Semi might be lifted if the user will agree to wait for consensus before making further reverts. The user might have genuine points to make regarding the content but this doesn't give them a license to revert. The treatment of the Circassians falls under WP:ARBEE since these events took place in the territory of the Soviet Union. EdJohnston (talk) 02:17, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Just see – Talk:Nina Dobrev#Nationality and WP:BLPLEAD

Comments:

While possibly not a technical WP:3RR violation, it is definitely a violation of the spirit of Edit warring and has been going on for weeks. At this point, this is basically WP:POV-pushing by a virtual WP:SPA at Nina Dobrev (user is question has edited no other article over this time period...). A compromise version of the lede, which even includes the material in question has been devised, and even that isn't enough. And has now been reverted by three different editors. Needs to be blocked for edit warring and disruption, at this point. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 16:05, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

Make that four editors who have undone Targatron. There are multiple references in the article that she is considered Canadian. And per Canadians this identity is not solely dependent on having Canadian citizenship, and in fact, Canadian citizenship is not even a requirement to be considered Canadian. Meters (talk) 19:51, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

And Targatron has just reverted again: . Can we please get a block now – this editor's actions at Nina Dobrev have been the opposite of constructive, and are straight-up edit-warring. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 03:40, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

User has a history of pushing poorly sourced content hyping health benefits of alt med / dietary supplements. See their TP here before they cleared it and also here. Jytdog (talk) 03:05, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

‣ This is essentially about PMID 19005980. You yourself had effectively noted that it's okay. You had already edited the section and previously chosen to not remove the reference. Now you say it's not okay. This is your change of opinion, not mine. If you change your mind like you change your clothes, how is that my fault. I actually don't even disagree with the current state of the article.

‣ You were also extremely negligent in the removal of PMID 26664449 even though it's a valid reference, but why wouldn't you only see errors in other people.

‣ What you are doing in your complain above is creatively weaving together disconnected threads, one having to do with a broad removal started by Shaded0, and the other having to do with specific edits made by Zefr. This doesn't work; your corruptness is obvious. Essentially, the third and fourth edits in your list have no relation to the first and second. You even logged an incorrect timestamp for the third edit. You are effectively attempting to troll the administrators with your post.

I find the edit-summary of this revert quite disruptive. The user removes material he doesn't like that's found in the lead just because it's also mentioned in the body.

I'm not edit warring. First information about HTS is totally made up and unrelated with the events in Afrin. I'm sorry about this, if you used talk page and explained my why this information should stay, instead of reporting me here all the time, I would do self revert.

Comments:
This user refuses to engage on the article talk, or his user talk, pages, and instead just continues reverting. I’ve tried to encourage him to discuss this, repeatedly, as seen with my following edit summaries;

• Why cant you go to the talk page?
• you've already been reverted, if you disagree - go to the talk before reverting again
• go to that talk page if you have an issue

And with these notes added to template notices;

• Please stop edit-warring and discuss the issue. Thank you
• If you have an issue with content, discuss it on the talk page

This user was just reported here a couple weeks for the same behaviour (edit-warring with another editor) and was blocked, but once the block expired, he quickly continued with his "revert everything and discuss nothing" approach to editing. Thank you - WOLFchild 05:09, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

• i gave my reasons multiple times. There is no such thing as a Special Air Service Reserve. Yet you keep on forcing it, despite there not being a source for it. All 3 regiment belong to the Special Air Service corps and the units reserve status within the core was already highlighted. Fustos (talk) 05:17, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
• Furthermore, your assertion that i refuse to discuss before making a change is a blatant lie. On the Talk:List of military special forces units alone i posted 2 new sections before making a change just to be sure. Fustos (talk) 05:23, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
• thirdly, you keep on spamming my page, despite me asking you at least a dozen times to stop posting on my profile. Fustos (talk) 05:26, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

• You don't "give reasons" by way of edit-warring edit-summaries. You are supposed to give your reasons on the article talk page, after the first time you're reverted, and before you revert again. You shouldn't be reverting at all after that unless an agreement or consensus in support of your edit is reached.
• Furthermore, this is a bulleted list of units and sub-units. The 21st SAS (Artists)(R) and 23rd SAS(R) form the Special Air Service (Reserve), that's why it's on the list and as I explained, and is supported supported by link.
• Thirdly, you did not start a discussion about this on the talk page, despite my repeatedly encouraging you. You just kept on reverting. Whether you're right or wrong, edit-warring is disruptive. You were told this just a couple weeks ago when you were blocked for edit-warring with another editor, and yet you just keep doing it.
• I'm not "spamming your page". Those are notices that I'm required to place there if I intend to report your edit-warring. You already know this, it has been explained to you before. I haven't posted any individual comments, just the notices (that I wouldn't have to post in the first place if you would stop edit-warring all the time) - WOLFchild 05:55, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
  • Additionaly, if the link I added above isn't good enough for you, then here; 1, 2, 3 & 4. These are supporting refs (that I'll add when the content you removed goes back in). This took all of a minute and half on Google, something you should've done before you removed content for no reason, and certainly before you continued to edit war over it. - WOLFchild 06:20, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

• I also wanted to add that despite your edit summary: "reverting unsourced edit. there is no SAS reserve core. thats just in your head", these sources say otherwise. So this was not only a rude comment, but an incorrect one. Please to be more civil. (as in, no more telling editors to "fuck off" when they try to get you to stop edit-warring). - WOLFchild

WP:WIKIHOUNDING my contributions because I argued for the deletion on Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/RAW activities in Pakistan, a POVFORK he wants to keep. He never edited this Tourism in India article before and he came here only to fight with me.

His edits are clearly agenda-driven edits. Made no attempt to discuss content and when I made the attempt to discuss content he totally disregarded the objections as "personal attack", while accepting that the content he restored was WP:COPYVIO and went again to restore them and in his fourth revert, he added his own opinion by providing a near identical book, but didn't provided the page number, which looks like WP:GAMING. In his most latest edit, he is using self published sources like Gyan Publishing that copies from online forums and Misplaced Pages. This looks like a clear case of WP:INCOMPETENCE.

defence The copyright violation does not show up in the tools I am using, but as the nom wanted it removed I reworded the two lines that he commented on. As the concern was removed I added the text back. The edit summaries given in brackets are not mine. The nom could have read my edit summaries and but did not. I clearly stated in my third revert that I acknowledge the concern and am reverting to merely get back the text and I will remove the copy vio in the next edit; which I did. Adding back text which is not copyright violation should not be a concern. I think the Indo pak articles need a look see by an admin as a number of sleeper-esque accounts have made their presence felt lately. Elektricity (talk) 10:53, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
