== Need a clarification of a 1RR ==

The policy says:

:"''A "page" means any page on Misplaced Pages, including talk and project space. A "revert" means any edit (or administrative action) that reverses the actions of other editors, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material. A series of consecutive saved revert edits by one user with no intervening edits by another user counts as one revert.''"

In connection to that, I am wondering if:

# If removal of some part of the text added to the article long time ago is considered a revert?
# If removal of two independent parts of the text when no other user is working on that particular section is considered two reverts?
# Modification of some existing text is considered a revert?

    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.

    Comments:

    • Just read my edit summaries, which the OP has refused to do. (S)he also required me to provide a citation when the transcription was unsourced to begin with. Mr KEBAB (talk) 16:18, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
    • For what it's worth, when the comment <!-- Do not change this without a source --> was added to the article, the vowel was already . It appears it was changed to by an IP, probably inadvertently, as their summary explains other changes in the edit but not the one to the first vowel. So I doubt those who reverted Mr KEBAB had any grounding, but Mr KEBAB also could have certainly handled it in a more respectful manner. Nardog (talk) 16:39, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
    • I must also note that the fourth diff provided by the reporter is not a revert, just a removal of a comment telling people not to edit something already unsourced without providing a source. This strikes me as an WP:OWNERSHIP issue on the part of the two who reverted Mr KEBAB's edit. They reverted it simply because it was a change to something that stood in a featured article for very long, without examining the validity of his edit, which they could have done by simply clicking the notation and reading Help:IPA/Standard German. But Mr KEBAB also could have and should have spared passive-agressive or uncivil comments in summaries on his talk and continued trying to get his point across, such as quoting or pointing to the relevant part of the help page, initiating a conversation on the talk, or citing an external source like Duden. Nardog (talk) 17:01, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

    Has Nardog's edit resolved the dispute? --NeilN 18:25, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

    @EdJohnston: :I noticed outside of harrassing a couple users this past month as seen with this report, and one done here , he has been harassing various users. He recently told and admin to fuck off a couple times for a block and called then an idiot. And threatened to quit wikipedia. Is this something that should be looked into? He's done this about three times in the past month. He also leaves very demeaning messages to people he comes in conflict with as seen in these edit noticeboard postings he's made and these edit summaries: , The admin did handle what he said to her, but I do notice this has become a pattern with him. Kebab has never apologized for any of it. Jakeroberts93 (talk) 20:14, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: diff; note that they removed it, and promptly gave me such a notice. Classic behavior of an aggressive new editor who doesn't understand that these are notices, not badges of shame; unfathomable for a former admin.

    Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:

    Comments:

    Last month they were subject to an ANI thread about their edit warring and bad behavior on other articles they have created, which was closed after they wrote here, showing apparent self-insight, I clearly have WP:OWN issues on articles that I have just created and my behaviour was not appropriate.. They have continued demonstrating the exact same behavior described at ANI at Young blood transfusion, and I opened an AN thread on this, which was (frustratingly for me) closed early. So, a more narrow venue. They have reverted me, User:Natureium, User:Seraphimblade, User:Winged Blades of Godric, and User:Doc James over the past four days, and are more or less single-handedly and single-mindedly trying to force their vision of the page into the article.

    I am looking for an edit warring block to help them actually understand that they have a pattern of OWN behavior and they need to change it. There is much more but I have focused on the clear breaking of 3RR in the last 24 hours. There was lots of edit warring before, by people including me. Everyone but violetriga has stepped back from that. Jytdog (talk) 17:14, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    It’s amazing that it’s taken until now for you to say that this is the problem. I’ve been asking for an age why you think this is about humans only. I think you’ll find the creation of a straw poll on the talk page will solve this issue without need for any punitive action. But all you are after is getting me blocked, as evidenced by the rudeness and the threats. The change from person to animal was made by me to try and solve the issues you have with the article rather than me trying to push my own viewpoint. I’ve created so much discussion on the talk page there it should be evident what I’m trying to do. violet/riga  17:35, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
    You are misrepresenting the history.
    • I explained here and here. Doc James explained it here. Roxythedog explained it here. It was explained in each of the edit notes where you were reverted.
    • I added appropriately sourced and written to the article in this diff, and said I did so here.
    • You are misrepresenting, and you have very clearly violated 3RR over the last 24 hours. Jytdog (talk) 18:21, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
    This is not a single person problem; Jytdog's behavior on this article has been aggressive and vitriolic which tends to put other editors' backs up. I would suggest both editors be careful of edit warring and tone and that Jytdog might consider a more collaborative manner when dealing with other editors.(Littleolive oil (talk) 17:40, 26 May 2018 (UTC))
    Agreed. violet/riga  17:42, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
    The snake oil issue is now resolved. I removed it simply because the source did not say specifically that young blood is snake oil. Since then other sources have been used to back up the claim and I am happy with that. That is how collaborative editing works. Jytdog is spending more time trying to get a block than actually trying to improve the article. violet/riga  17:45, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
    And a resolution presents itself. The fact that this procedure is only notable because it is in humans has now been described. That is fine with me and I agree that it should be "person". The only reason I wanted it otherwise was because Jytdog was pushing for it to not have any content about mice which is where the vast majority of the research currently is. If he spent more time actually discussing things then maybe we could have arrived at this resolution literally days ago. violet/riga  17:55, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
    Per the talk page stats, I have used the talk page as much as you. You are again misrepresenting what has happened. Jytdog (talk) 18:21, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
    Jytdog that's silly. If I wanted to follow you around Misplaced Pages there be a lot of crossover which there isn't. Given that I teach movement, dance, and have worked in theater, Alexander Technique for example is a place I definitely want to be if there is a concern with the content. And there are several places where other interests may crossover. Are you going to try and tell me I've followed you to TM articles. I have most certainly landed deliberately in a few places where I saw Jytdog's treatment of editors, especially new editors, which really, really bothered me. I have found myself in position of trying to smooth over hurt feelings with a sense that we are losing editors when people are treated to an aggressive editor. In truth, I try to stay away from Jytdog; he isn't pleasant, and have avoided interactions in many cases. And when I felt I have had to deal with him try to be as neutral as I can. His comment that I am arguing with him is an example of how this editors feels he owns some aspects of Misplaced Pages. I could care less about Jytdog's opinions;I care a great deal about editors who are treated to his incivility because this impacts people and Misplaced Pages as a whole. If he wants to pursue a ban of any kind; he should go ahead. I would advise against it given my experience with him.(Littleolive oil (talk) 18:44, 26 May 2018 (UTC))
    • Again, violetriga has a serious OWN problem that they can name but cannot control. I am looking for a preventative block to underline the importance of them managing this. The misrepresenting etc are issues for other boards. Jytdog (talk) 18:23, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
      • I think I'm being rather restrained given the barrage of abuse you are giving. I don't have issues with people who properly discuss things. Your solution is to block and ban anyone who disagrees with you. It appears to me that you have a lot of history fighting fringe-pushes. For that I applaud you, but you appear too quick to label other people that way. violet/riga  18:38, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
        • You provide no diffs of "barrage of abuse". This is just rhetoric - speech intended to persuade, with regard for truth, much less evidence as is everything else you have written here.
        • The actual diffs are clear, regardless of the words you write here. Admins will do as they will, but you should be blocked, preventatively. You are showing no signs that actually you understand that your behavior is not OK even though you were able to articulate that you have an OWN problem. Jytdog (talk) 18:47, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
          • I don't present diffs because I don't want to spend my time looking through your edits, not because such evidence does not exist. That is supported by Littleolive oil above. violet/riga  18:52, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
            • I don't want to be sucked into your game but it all started when you came along and tore the article apart with edit summaries like "remove crap" and "incompetent citation". You did not try to engage in discussion, you just pushed your view. That's not a good start to a collaborative editing relationship. You yourself have since shown WP:OWN. violet/riga  19:23, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
            • Thanks for making it clear, that all you are doing is making unsupported aspersions. The behavioral issues are very clear here. Jytdog (talk) 20:19, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
              • You would say that, just as I would say that I have found your comments and your tone to be dismissive, confrontational, and rude. My behaviour has not be ideal and I apologise for that, and you will note that I have not done anything but discuss for quite some time. violet/riga  21:20, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
                  • I appreciate your apology, and that you stopped edit warring while this thread is open.

                    • My actions or lack thereof have not been influenced by any of your reports but instead by discussion with (mostly other) users. As talk page discussion keeps going there are further gains being made and the article is once again looking like it has good coverage. Some of that is down to you, some is the interaction with others. violet/riga  23:13, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    Comments:

    User:Miaow appears to be insistent upon an edit war which I have tried to resolve. I have responded to her questions on my Talk page, her Talk page, and the Talk page of the article in question, all of which has been fruitless. The user has made several disruptive edits, undoing true and factual information I have updated the infobox of the artist whose article is in contention. The user initially claimed the issue was with a lack of sources, which I responded to. The user then stopped responding to me, and when I went ahead to update the article (with references this time) in addition to listing several more references on the article's talk page, the user came up with another arbitrary metric. The problem is the metric in question (awards shows) is incredibly arbitrary and pales in comparison to the many other sources I provided (multiple concert tours, articles from respected publications, live broadcasts on television and radio shows, multiple YouTube videos) when it comes to gauging the notability of an artist's use of an instrument.

    This has resulted in the user making 4 reverts in just over 24 hours and they show no interest in resolving this. Alolanle (talk) 18:42, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    There is no 3RR violation and you need to reach consensus to your edits, Alolanle.
    The user left this message on my talk page, and he didn't wait my answer cause he edited the article before i replied to their. So i left my reply on the article's talk page today. I told to the user here and here why we can't add their edits and that i will restore the infobox waiting for more comments about it (until consensus is reached about their edits) but now he undid my edit again and they report me here. I don't want problems because of this.
    I have lost interest in the article since the user doesn't want to wait for consensus. I will no edit their change. Best regards. --Miaow 23:19, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
    @NeilN: Thanks for your suggest Neil. Of course a third opinion would be good but can someone restore the previous version before edit warring? All the best and thank you. --Miaow 23:25, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    Alolanle, you neglected to notify Miaow as you are required to do. I have done so for you. Both of you are at three reverts (consecutive edits count as one revert) so any more reverts on either side may result in blocks. I suggest asking for a WP:3O to get more input regarding tthis dispute. --NeilN 22:51, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Revision as of 07:21, 26 May 2018 - discussion open (quite lively).

    Comments:
    Article placed under 1RR due to ARBEE sactions by @NeilN: here. Disputed content (in reverts 1,2,3,4,6) is a rather broad generalization regarding Jews based on initially a collection of blog posts, and now brief coverage in a couple of low impact journals - content has been objected to by multiple editors, and ONUS has not been met for inclusion - it also misrepresents sources such as they are (interestingly, E-960 has admitted lack of coverage of this "taboo" subject - ). User previously had 1RR issues on the article and let off with a warning - here and a voluntary restriction here. User indicates 1RR awareness in this edit summary, in this article talk page message, and several times here. User has also made comments directed (NPA/ASPERSIONS) at other editors, e.g.: . To summarize - multiple 1RR violations, and reverts 4,5,6 all violate 3RR (revert6 being the 5th revert in 24Hrs, 4,5 4th reverts)Icewhiz (talk) 19:41, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    RE comments below - I will note, the most of the reverts above were not of my edits, but rather of @Slatersteven:, and @François Robere:. The two AE filings vs. E-960 (links above) indeed did not conclude with a sanction (beyond a voluntary restriction) - however in both cases there was a violation of the technical rule ending with: "E-960 needs to be more careful when reverting" (after another editor said he undid some of E-960's edits by mistake and E-960 corrected that mistake), and "E-960 will voluntarily refrain from editing the article for 72 hours". I chose to file here and not in AE as this will probably be examined by NeilN, and because this is a straightforward edit warring report (and in hindsight, possibly the two prior reports should've been filed here). As for consensus, the interpretation of consensus below by E-960 is not inline with the English Misplaced Pages's policy (in some foreign language wikis there is a "stable version" (not that there is clear there is one here) - but that is not English Misplaced Pages policy) - and there is no consensus on the talk page to include this sweeping generalization in the article.Icewhiz (talk) 20:13, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
    As for the hagiography comment, the full sentence was - In this case the text inserted is making a sweeping generalization, with hagiagraphical depictions of Polish suffering based on cherrypicked incidents from low impact, and mainly ignored, publications - a comment on the text. I do, of course, recognize the Polish losses during WWII - I was commenting on a particular piece of text inserted into Misplaced Pages.Icewhiz (talk) 21:20, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    Comments by e-960:
    This topic is currently under DISSCUSSION on the article TALK PAGE: Non-RS. The reverts that user Icewhiz listed were of changes which were made WITHOUT gaining a prior CONSENSUS, while the discussion was still in progress, and thus reverted (pls see the Edit Summary of each revert). The rules clearly state in the Active Arbitration Reminder notice placed in the article that: With respect to the WP:1RR restriction: Edits made solely to enforce any clearly established consensus are exempt from all edit-warring restrictions. Clear vandalism of any origin may be reverted without restriction.

    Also, user Icewhiz's behavior can be interpreted as Misplaced Pages:Forum shop. In the past 3 weeks, user Icewhiz filed two 'Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement' reports against myself , and GizzyCatBella , both of which were DISMISSED as lacking merit and did not result in an action. Now, using the same questionable approach, user Icewhiz has moved on to the 'Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring' filing more reports alleging misconduct by other editors. Pls notice this example which illustrates exactly what user Icewhiz is doing — he states in the original complaint: "E-960 has reverted this tag placed by François Robere previously without providing a quotation - and other editors supported a quotation", but please notice that the tag NEVER ASKED for a quotation, it stated: . So, after VERIFYING the source, I placed a note in the Edit Summary that this information was located on page 140. Again, the tag never asked for a quote (there are tags that specifically ask for that , however this was not one of them), but user Icewhiz in a manipulative way is trying to mischaracterize what the tag placed by François Robere actually asked for. Another good example is revert1 that was listed by user Icewhiz, which simply restored longstanding text (with reference sources) that was removed by user François Robere, and per rules stated above that's not a violation of anything. As for the alleged 1RR violation made by me regarding user Slatersteven, pls notice the actual FULL CHRONOLOGY of the edits: first here user Slatersteven changed the text with out consensus , and here I reverted those changes as they were not agreed to on the talk page , then again here user Slatersteven restored his original edit . Yet, user Icewhiz is alleging that I broke the 1RR rule? So, I would request that maybe the ADMINS who were involved in the past (NeilN, Bishonen and Sandstein) are brought in to assess this situation and help out with sorting of facts, as they may be already familiar the specific nuances involved.

    Finally, I would like to raise this point, and bring to everyone's attention that user Icewhiz's comments can and do at times come across as anti-Polish. Just today, to disparage some of the content that was being discussed user Icewhiz made this statement: "hagiagraphical depictions of Polish suffering". I find it extremely TROUBLING when such comments are made during a discussion on the Holocaust. --E-960 (talk) 20:01, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    Comments:

    For administrators, this user is the newest sockpuppet of User:Abhinand1234, a hardcore Parvatii Nair fan. The user is now edit warring with me to place the actress's name on top of Neerali cast order, also removed mass content (all dreadful films from her filmography table) from her article. The former socks were blocked after struggling to remove the same (a discussion can be seen here, his then sockpuppet was Calicutspecialist) as well as for other edits regarding the actress. Calicutspecialist is suspected of maintaining COI with actress (again see that discussion), and here Yourmistake also almost admits that he maintains COI. This person has this trait of requesting full protection for pages while edit warring, right after making a blind revert or a problematic edit (so that his version stays if fully protected): Abhinand1234 - diff, diff, full; Calicutspecialist - diff, full. Yourmistake does the same thing (multiple times) - diff, diff, full; diff, full; diff, full; diff, full (current). The user just wants to promote the actress, and takes whatever it costs, even making a fool of himself . I can file a more detailed SPI if necessary.--Let There Be Sunshine 22:01, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

    We have a term for someone who will be prevented from editing by a topic ban: single-purpose account. That's usually indicative that someone's interest in Misplaced Pages is driven by a personal agenda rather than a desire to collaboratively build an encyclopaedia. Guy (Help!) 12:18, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
    While much of my edits are related to a topic, they are more or less helpful, and we, of course edit what we choose. There is a reason editors don't edit in some areas and edit in others. Editing around a topic does not make one a single-purpose account. Nevertheless, I will take up the idea of spreading my range of topics.ScepticismOfPopularisation (talk) 12:58, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

    Regarding "that edit was made when I didn't understand 3RR": you were blocked for edit-warring at origins of Christianity at 23 may. The moment that block ended, you started edit-warring again at that article, for which I warned you diff. You removed that warning, with the edit-summary "Archiving nonesense." I further responded, writing "Blanking your talkpages is not a good sign... You're lucky that you made your reverts in a series on edits; this makes it count as only two." You reverted again, after which I posted a second warning at your talkpage: "That's three..." So, I think you were already quite familiair with edit-warring, and the Wiki-policies in this regard.

    ScepticismOfPopularisation prefers this version

    • diff. (Removed maintenance-tags without addressing them; and broke a reference)
    • diff. Removed sourced text, from source they provided themself. Edit-summary:

    Broken ref. Also can't access source.

    They broke the ref themselves. And they can't access a source which they provided themselves.
    • diff. Removed the maintenance-tags a second time. Edit-summary:

    You see, I accessed this source through a non-literary work which quotes only this quote. Either way still does not fir failed verification criteria. Also should you be aslo abel to access this yourself if you are able to cite material from the same page?

    • diff. Removed the maintenance-tags a third time. Edit-summary:

    Very well. Dubious is only used whn doubtimg the SOURCE's accuracy, and neither of us do. We ar eonly alllowed to sue the failed verificatiin template when we have actually checked the source-and it is inaccessible for you, and largely inaccessible for me save for this quote.

    The "failed verification" tag was already replaced by a "dubious" tag, which this edit removed. The "which" tag was removed a third time.

    And this new tread is really incredible.First claimimg that Porter states

    this belief in bodily resurrection was at odds with the both the pagan and Jewish customs of that time, thus marking Christians off from all their contemporaries.

    And then, when it turns out that Porter actuallu argues for Greek influences on Jewish thought and Christianity; and refers to three cults from the Graeco-Roman world which propgated a beleif in resurrection; then to start arguing that

    ...we cannot use Porter to support the connection between pagan cultic connections to the resurrection-which is not something consensual scholars like Bart Ehrman would agree with.

    First make a big fuss, cherrypicking quotes from an undisclosed source and edit-warring, and then, when the real source turns out to be opposite one's own opinions, starting to question the use of this source. WP:NOTHERE. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 18:55, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

    • Comment I may be wrong but as I understand WP:DRAFTIFY once the article creator has objected to the move to draft space (reverting is obviously objecting) the mover must move it back to mainspace and nominate for Afd. Dom from Paris (talk) 16:56, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
    @Exemplo347: Also I don't see the obligatory notification on FA's page. Maybe it was removed? Dom from Paris (talk) 17:05, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

    Clear irredentist disruptive pro-Azeri agenda. After his dozenth violation of WP:WAR and WP:BRD, he left me a note, referring to other Wiki editors as "racist Persians". Clearly WP:NOTHERE. - LouisAragon (talk) 16:35, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
