Reported by: Extraordinary Machine 02:48, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Comments: 85.64.227.133 (talk · contribs) may be an IP used by Vorash (talk · contribs): as soon as Vorash stopped repeatedly reverting to a weeks-old version of the article without any discussion or explanation, the IP address took over and started reverting to the exact same version. Note that these reverts are completely and utterly blind: they undo whatever edits were made in the meantime, reintroduce a plethora of inaccuracies into the article (which had been removed by other editors), and remove references and important material. This has gone beyond a content dispute as those reverts made by Vorash and the IP (who may very well be one and the same, though this is unconfirmed) count as vandalism.

Reported by: Ned Scott 05:12, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
- What is the version reverted to? it's a lot of reverts, but i can't find the original version, so this just looks like one edit and three reverts from where i stand . . . (and Ned, you're one away as well.) --He:ah? 05:24, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
- I have refrained from doing any more edits because I am aware of that fact, although the issue isn't exactly clear as it says that the 3RR doesn't apply to vandalism correction. This user might not have reverted to an exact version of the page, but if you look, he's basically trying to revert to a version similar to the others, but now with a different image (since the previous image was deleted). Had the original image not been deleted this would be even more clear. Maybe a borderline issue, but it's pretty clear what he's trying to do. -- Ned Scott 05:28, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Reported by: HeyNow10029 19:20, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Comments: The user seems dead-set on adding an external link of a blog he set up ( The Real World: Denver Blog) to the article. In the blog he posts about pictures of people who he claims are future castmembers on the next instalment of The Real World with no information to back those claims up - he just expects people to believe anything he writes and take it as fact. In the articles' discussion forum I led him to Misplaced Pages's policy on external links and verifiability, which the blog doesn't pass, but he continues to add the link to the article. As of now, the blog has three posts, two of which are dedicated to what he calls an edit war between him and Misplaced Pages. This is getting really juvenile. HeyNow10029 19:20, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

User:Piotrus
Three revert rule violation on Red_Army (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Piotrus (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):
Reported by: Number 6 02:26, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
Comments: The user is question is an admin, who should be fully aware of 3RR and whose attitude should be quite different. Nonetheless, the user ignores all words of reason and resorts to personal attack.
Well, well, well, I was wondering if Number 6 (talk · contribs) (no talk page, all edits up till now limited to POV pushing and revert warring at Red Army) would make his first edit to other page - and he did. His knowledge of Misplaced Pages procedures suggest sockpuppetry or at least disruptive trolling and I'd recommend appopriate action. In any case, I have not broken 3RR as my reverts today were not to my own version but to Irpen's compromise version from earlier today.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 03:15, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
It is funny that you should be calling me names and accusing me of POV and other nonsense. All of this is true of you, not me. Your logic is fascinating: Number 6 knows something about wikipedia, ergo an “appropriate action” is recommended. Your lies about my edits are manifest to anyone willing to check my edits. However, I do admit that you did not formally violate 3RR in that article, even though the “compromise” version you’re referring to was hardly different from your original revert. Number 6 12:47, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- Looks like 4R to me. 3h as a first offence William M. Connolley 18:57, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- Now this would be funny if it wasn't so sad. On one side we have a new user with no edit history or talk page and devotion to a single page, on the other - a well-respected contributor and an admin. And now the funny thing: the latter is blocked for violating not the 3RR, but some strange 2RR. Check for yourselves: 1st revert, 2nd revert, 3rd revert, which is also the current version. No 4th revert whatsoever. Of course I'm not impartial here, but it seems to me like William Connolley overreacted. I believe Piotrus should be unblocked ASAP. If not for his past contributions with this project and not for the benefit of a doubt, then at least for the fact that he has not broken the rules. //Halibutt 00:27, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
- The block was short and I am back here, so this is not the question of unblocking but of fairness of block. To play the devil's advocate (against myself...) I'll note that there are two reverts carried by me on the previous day (for example, this one) that on a cursory glance may look like a basis for 3RR violation. However, as Number 6 pointed above himself, they are not the same, as my recent 3 reverts were to the compromise version we worked together with Irpen (). And I think that those two versions are far from 'hardly different' (). In any case, I have explained this in detail in am email I sent to William few hours ago, and I am no waiting for his reply.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 01:05, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
- And not a Pole to begin with, right? Sheesz. Please stick your chauvinism where it belongs, with your lies about my "no edit history". It is a big relief that there are objective admins, so my case is not lost yet. Number 6 12:16, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Reported by: JDoorjam Talk 03:55, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
Comments: I did a pretty thorough scrub of The Daily Show a few days ago. Today, User:Mark 2000 accused me of repressing the facts, and threatened to engage in "a war" if I did not clear further changes with him. I reverted his edits, because they were still just as editorial and rife with weasel words as they were when I took them out days earlier. I then moved his message from my talk page to the talk page of The Daily Show and explained that I thought his insertions required sources. Rather than comment in the discussion section (which my edit summary asked him to do), he reverted my changes with no edit summary of his own. I reverted his edits a second time, asking again that he comment on the talk page. He wrote on the talk page that finding sources was not his responsibility because his assertions were common knowledge. Rather than revert him a third time, I moved the content around a bit, and altered some of the language to bring it to a neutral point of view. He apparently did not accept my attempt at compromise and reverted a fourth time. I would ask that he be blocked for the standard 24 hours, that his last edit be reverted to the compromise I attempted to broker, and that an admin or multiple administrators take a look at the content in question to determine the best course forward with regards to making the article informative and neutral. JDoorjam Talk 03:55, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- I see some discussion on the talk page. I don't see any warnings about 3RR though. So Mark can have 3h as a warning William M. Connolley 18:47, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Reported by: gidonb 19:29, 17 April 2006 (UTC) Comments: I suspect that this newly created user is a sockpuppet of the person who under different identities tried and for a long time and sometimes succeeded through edit wars to delete or totally diminish the holocaust from the Germany page in the past. User also started personal attack on the talk page that is totally unfounded. The very personal style of this "new" user, as if he knows me a long time (I have protected in the past the very inclusion of the holocaust on the Germany page), sort of gives him away. gidonb 19:29, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- 3h as a first offence William M. Connolley 21:05, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- User also made personal racism related attacks against me on his talk page (and on the Germany talk page): The user who insists on adding material to a section which is already way too long is a Jew who is primarily engaged in Zionist POV pushing, as one can see from his contributions. Needless to say that except for being a Jew there is no truth in his remarks. I actively remove POV texts from Misplaced Pages, especially Zionist POV. See the award on my user page for some detail. It is the tip of the iceberg. I am disgusted by all types of racism and very active against it. I am partially of German decent myself.

- Replacing several statements supported by sources from the peer-reviewed scientific and medical literature which are being removed for no other reason than to obscure them and their obvious implication is reverting vandalism, which is defined as "... deletion or change to content made in a deliberate attempt to reduce the quality of the encyclopedia.... Not all vandalism is blatant, nor are all massive or controversial changes vandalism: Careful attention needs to be given to whether the new data or information is right or whether it is vandalism." A cursory glance at the edits in question show that I've merely been replacing, and expanding in some cases, the source-supported research being deleted. --James S. 20:35, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, James, but you are involved in a long-standing content dispute on this page. As far as I can tell, this is just a continuation of it. 3RR is only suspended for simple vandalism. --Stephan Schulz 20:47, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
I agree. This looks like a content war, and JS has broken 3RR. 24h. Because I have some history with JS (though not over this article) I shall list this block at WP:AN/I to allow it to be checked William M. Connolley 21:11, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Comments: G&E is edit warring over the first sentence of partial-birth abortion. While some efforts have been made to resolve this conflict on the talk page, G&E seems to jump the gun on resolution and simply change content without consensus. You can look at the talk page and see that weeks ago, G&E tried to get consensus to change the first paragraph after a string of edit wars stemming from the first paragraph, but that proposal was rejected. Ever since, a slow edit war has ensued, and today it seems the reverts have gone out of hand.--Andrew c 00:50, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Note that 3RR has come up on the talk page and this user is aggressively reverting despite this. I have proposed an RfC on the article.

I know it's annoying and time consuming, but please format this as demonstrated below, or it is difficult to find the reverts. a list of the times of the last 14 edits this user made doesn't in any way provide evidence that they reverted four times.

Comments: 69.108.50.39 seems intimately familiar with Misplaced Pages procedures and "minor edits" as well as sockpuppetry, so is perhaps either a banned user or has a problematic account. Has continued to revert even after another user, also anonymous, noted a violation of the three-revert rule on discussion page.
- an edit is different from a revert. you have given a list of this users last 8 edits to the article, many of which were successive, and this doesn't in any way suggest that the user has reverted 4 times in 24 hours. People can edit as many times as they would like in any given period of time . . . I of course went to the history and checked the diffs as well, and i still don't see over three reverts in the last 24 hours, but it was kinda confusing. if you can format the above properly and convince me (or another admin) otherwise, go for it . . . (and please follow the below example and fomat it correctly!!) but right now, i don't see it, so no block. --Heah? 08:51, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
- He's reverting. He's not editing. He's simply changing his copy back to what he had before. He's also mislabeling it as "rv." Because he's doing it in multiple steps, I simplified it for you:
- first reversion
- second reversion
- third reversion
- fourth reversion
- Thanks. BehroozZ 16:04, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

- I request that User:Haham hanuka, who was an extremely rich history in 3RR and other violations, will be blocked for frequent abusing the Administrator noticeboards to launch his false allegations against me. As you will see in the Germany history and his personal history, making false allegations against me is one of his major activities on Misplaced Pages. gidonb 18:00, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
- Either of you fix the details of the diff-links above to prove either way. Agathoclea 18:49, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
. I notice you didn't post the times. Checking out the diffs, its clear that they are not within 24h. Gb: rather than discussion, it would have been more helpful of you to point that out. Anyway, complaint dismissed William M. Connolley 18:54, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
- I did link the Germany edit history - that went unlinked - to this complaint and said there is no truth in this allegation. I did not check the individual links supplied by Haham hanuka. As you know, I am getting used to personal, racist and other attacks on Misplaced Pages as well as discriminatory treatment. It comes with editing contested topics. gidonb 19:01, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

Comments:
- Irishpunktom has been doing his best to keep out verifiable information on the infidel article via reverts. His motivation has been such that he's in fact reverted across two independent editors. Irishpunktom was less than civil in Personal Attackish editorial comment, "reverting known racist" directed towards the other editor.
There is easily verifiable (just look at the link provided) original research in the current version that should be edited out. This would be the verifiable version (according to Encyclopedia Britannica and Kafir).
- I'm reporting myself as well for although I did make some minor changes in my diffs above, it could be argued that I violated 3RR in spirit (to establish a verifiable version) so depending upon the view of the admin(s) who read this I may indeed merit a blocking as well. Netscott 17:44, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
IPT has enough 24h blocks: 48h. You Nescott... ah what to do with you? Admire your honesty in reporting yourself? Give you a good kick for being pretty sure you were breaking 3RR but doing it anyway? Well... as a first offence, 8h (other admins may wish to review this) William M. Connolley 18:48, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

This user has violated WP:3RR and was let off with a warning by a lax admin. As a result, he never learned that 3RR is the law, not just a good idea. He needs to be banned, and not just for a short period of time. Not only is this a violation of 3RR, but it is an example of a persistant habit of inserting personal essays into articles, violating WP:RS, WP:CITE and WP:OR, among others. He completely ignores consensus, no matter how many times other editors request that he source his text and otherwise maintain even the lowest level of acceptable quality. In conclusion, he needs banning and he needs it bad. Alienus 21:09, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

- Assuming good faith is only a virtue to the extent that good faith actually exists. As for Connelley, "lax" is definitely not the best word to describe him, but civility prevents me from being more accurate. In any case, Ndru01's blocked, so maybe this is the first step to learning how to get his edits kept. Then again, based on his responses on the Talk page, maybe not. If it turns out for the worse, I'm ready to file more reports. Alienus 04:27, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Comments: This user continues to add the NPOV tag to the Plame article without detailing any POV issues, even though more than seven editors have requested them. A consensus was reached that while the article isn't perfect because it is a current event, that the majority of the issues were corrected. Add to that that 71.212.31.95 (talk • contribs) has run the talk page in circles and only edits tags into the article and refuses to do any substantive edits him/herself.

Reported by: Andrei George 18:18, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- That's plain ridiculuous. I rewrote the entire article from scratch yesterday and cited my sources. After that the user twice placed a POV tag. I removed it because it was not accompanied by any explanations at the talk page. He can't just through tags at the whim. A good faith explanation is required when placing a POV tag over a whole article. Besides, this new user seems very familiar. Likely a reincarnation of a certain permabanned editor. Will be more specific as I watch more of his edits. --Irpen 18:25, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- This contributor knows very well what is or not legal in Misplaced Pages. He constanly reverted my edits, he constantly deleted POV tags. He made it more than 4 times. He needs to be blocked since he is aware of the consequences of his edits. His personal attacks are not welcome also. He proofs to avoid rules of Misplaced Pages. --Andrei George 18:28, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
Now let's analyze the frivolous complaint:
- What he calls "first revert" was an edit made at 05:35, April 19, 2006. (note the time as well) I merely added references to back the numbers someone flagged with the "fact" tag and, as the numbers were sourced, removed a disputed tag
- What he calls "2nd revert" was a total article rewrite at 07:46, April 20, 2006. More sources were added and the summary called for any disagreements to be brought up at talk page
- What he calls "3rd and 4th reverts" are indeed reverts (as such there are only two reverts) and all I did was called whoever places a global POV tag over an article to explain the dispute at talk.
As such, these four edits are not at all within 24 hours to begin with. Two of them are not reverts at all and the last two is a call for whoever places a POV tag to explain it at talk. The user places a global POV tag without explanation and assaults a whole bunch of articles with Bonaparte-style immature Romanian nationalism. Please consider whether such behavior warrants an action on its own. For details, see User:Bonaparte/sockpuppetry, user talk:Bonaparte/sockpuppetry and Sockpuppetry by Bonaparte. --Irpen 18:41, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- I don't think it is Bonaparte. `'mikka (t) 18:39, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
I had my doubts too but not for long. --Irpen 18:41, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- I don't much like all this. AG is clearly someones sock, the question is, whose. Please *don't* discuss that here though. Irpen gets a stern warning re 3RR. However, since I've felt obliged to protect the page, I don't feel inclined to block. Others feel free to review William M. Connolley 18:53, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
...and I am hereby removing the "stern warning". There were only two reverts by Irpen. And place a stern warning upon Connolley for siding with trolls without checking facts.`'mikka (t) 20:03, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
Irpen has 3 definite reverts (, , ) and one which on reflection isn't really a revert. M, you should not unprotect and article that you've been reverting William M. Connolley 20:31, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- Please check your quotations. Of 3 refs, only two are reverts, one of them being a very formal classification, since the whole article was significantly rewritten. I am aware that people often lose track of edits/reverts and on a second thought I agree that Irpen must be more careful indeed. As for unprotecting, there is no edit war yet. `'mikka (t) 20:40, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- To back Irpen, I'll point out that User:Andrei George has been pulling the same stunts on the Transylvania page. There was no explanation for his gestures there, and the man did not even add a tag - he just erased text. Dahn 20:47, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
I'd like to stress the importance of spirit of the law. Irpen significantly expanded the article, and I think that content creation should be rewarded, not penalized. And although he removed the tag four times (or rather 2 different tags twice each), in the meantime he has been expanding the article, and I don't see his opponent even explaining the tag addition in the talk page. Even if Irpen has broken 3RR (and this is disputed as the discussion shows) I certainly think that warning is enough and that such useful contributors should not be blocked unless they do something much more disruptive.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus 22:19, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Comments: This user, who already is the subject of an RfC, has been deleting the 'TrollWarning' tags I added to two specific discussion threads in which trollsome behavior is directly alleged. He has violated 3RR both in literal terms (4 reverts to a talk page in 24 hours), and in essential terms (without pause for consensus, he is ready to revert war even a 'talk' page, to prove a point). Please block. -- User:RyanFreisling @ 23:31, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
I count three. The first two being seperate tags. Oh, and it takes two to tango and so on and so forth... Arkon 23:41, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- Fixed. Can you confirm the count, please? The literal rule isn't 'exactly the same reverts', it's 'reverts'. There are four reverts by Merecat in 24 hours, on a talk page. You'll also notice I only reverted twice to Meercat's 4. I'd like to stay above revert wars and let the original content issue (the tag) stand for a more informed discussion. -- User:RyanFreisling @ 23:45, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- I still see three, but perhaps an admin will take the removal of the one tag in each edit on the first two as seperate. Arkon 23:49, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- Not a 3RR violation. Second revert was a self-revert, so doesn't count. Stifle (talk) 23:55, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
No it wasn't.I do appreciate your attention but I disagree. Merecat did not self-revert. Merecat reverted my edits alone, in four reverts. If I were interested in gaming 3RR, I would revert again, and force him to violate - but it's about the spirit of 3RR as well, and I believe in this case this behavior, 'on a talk page, is definitely a violation of the spirit of 3RR as well as the literal policy. In this case, my report and concern are about respecting policy. -- User:RyanFreisling @ 23:57, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
Ryan is making trouble on that page with vandal edits. He's inserting a page tag in a section as a taunt. Please review his comments on that page. Merecat 00:06, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Comments: Edit war over a copyvio image in the article, --205.188.116.70 23:40, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not blocking Jaranda over this one, the AOL IP who was re-posting was making insultive edit summaries upon removal of the copyvio and was blocked for 10 min. -- Tawker 00:00, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
- Edit conflict, I ended up blocking Jaranda and Chris2008 for 8 hours each for 3RR violation, but Tawker correctly pointed out that removing a copyvio image (only) is/should be exempt from the 3RR (simple vandalism) and unblocked him. I also ineffectively blocked 205.188.116.6 for 15 minutes. Stifle (talk) 00:04, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Comments: Revert war over inserting unverifiable and factualy inaccurate claims that are highly disruptive to the NPOV of the article. Does not want to discuss on Talk page and acts very much like a common vandal.
