    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.

    Violations

    User:68.116.251.13

    Three revert rule violation on Mark Levin (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). :

    Reported by Eleemosynary 21:14, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

    Anonymous user has also been reported for vandalism. Article in question is a political radio show host, and the ensuing edit war is not uncommon in Misplaced Pages. However, a glance at some comments about the anonymous user's activities on the Article and Talk Pages should help illuminate things. Eleemosynary 21:14, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

    User:DrBat

    Three revert rule violation on Typhoid Mary (comics) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). DrBat (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log):

    Reported by: AriGold 13:37, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

    I asked him to give up his image. If he persists, then I'll impose a block on him. howcheng {chat} 22:33, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

    AriGold; 1)I'll expect an apology from you when its confirmed the anon-IP isn't me.
    2)The fourth reversion happened a day later than the first three reversions (Feb. 8, while the first three were on the seventh). If I'm not mistaken, I thought the limit was 3 reversions per a day? If not, you broke the 3RR limit as well. --DrBat 23:15, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

    It's a limit of 3 reversions within a 24 hour period, not per calendar day. AriGold did indeed break it, but I'm hoping that instead of just doling out punishments the issue is resolved and we'll leave it at that. howcheng {chat} 00:22, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
    Howcheng, reverting vandalism more than 3 times is a violation? All I was doing was reverting the picture back to its original form while DrBat kept reuploading and inserting versions of his picture that has just been deleted. AriGold 13:16, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
    DrBat, if you are not 201.17.89.78, I do apologize. And you reverted it more than 3 times in 24 hours, which is a no no. AriGold 13:16, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
    This isn't vandalism -- it's a content dispute over which image should be used. I'm assuming good faith that when DrBat says the new image is different from the deleted image, it's different. howcheng {chat} 17:09, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
    This all started with two images. His image of artwork was deleted in favor of mine that was the comic cover. Then, he proceeded to reupload the artwork images and keep inserting it, and I kept changing it back to the comic cover. That is reverting vandalism, as far as I can tell. AriGold 19:35, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
    It was deleted because you said that the image was modifed, which wasn't true at all (and despite all my proof, you refused to believe it until after the image was deleted). It was deleted on false pretenses. And the second image I uploaded was a different version (if you notice, it lacked the exposed nipple of the original version. I also posted both images on the WikiComics project post, if you want to compare.)
    And regardless, it wasn't vandalism. Vandalism is "any addition, deletion, or change to content made in a deliberate attempt to reduce the quality of the encyclopedia". If anything, your edits are vandalism for repacing high-quality images with poor, low-quality images. Why you insist on replacing decent images with ugly images that only hurt the article is beyond me.--DrBat 22:39, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
    It was deleted because I said that the image was used on a comic cover and the consensus was that the cover itself was better use. I see you've been following what everyone has told you and gone and changed the pics to the actual covers, do you not understand that that was my point? I seriously wish you would understand that and we could move on. You are a great contributor and I think you took my challenge of your contribution too personally. AriGold 22:43, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
    It wasn't personal, I just thought that your image was of a poor quality, and it detracted from the article. --DrBat 02:50, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
    This user has AGAIN reuploaded the image that was deleted and reinserted it into the Typhoid Mary article despite the opinions of 3 mods! AriGold 15:36, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

    Colle

    User:Colle has violated the 3rvt rule on the talk page of Safe Sex by reverting my comment 4 times (the last in part). I don't really want him blocked because overall he may be a good editor, but I believe I have a right to reply to a comment, and the repeated removal is infuriating. So if he does agree to revert himself I have no problem letting it go as I said on his talk. Chooserr 03:30, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

    You can see the full history . I, while not violating the 3rvt rule, probably should have let it go sooner, but this is my opinion and a reply to a statement on the same talk page. I believe this amounts to little more than censorship. Chooserr 03:33, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

    His fifth revert can be found if anyone is interested. Chooserr 03:43, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

    Oh and number is here if anyone is intent on serving justice. He is unlikely to revert himself and continues on reverting the page to his version. Chooserr 03:52, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

    Comments:

    • User has attempted to get away with reverts by making slight changes. It's essentially the same article.
    • User has a history of edit warring and conflict with other users.
    • User deems newer good-faith edits by others to be "POV" and "vandalism" and uses these as justifications for reverts.
    • A number of users are trying to make positive changes to this article but the constant reverting is stifling the process. Some have tried to reason with this user without success.
    • The revert in question is to a version with factual inaccuracies and spelling and grammar mistakes.

    Blocked for 24h for 3RR on the Template. Not technically 3RR on the Talk because the first edit wasn't a revert, just a total waste of everyones time.

    Reported by: Endroit 10:50, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

    Comments:

    • User:Appleby is a repeat offender of 3RR. After returning from a recent 72-hour block, he proceeded today to another edit war in the exact same East Sea (disambiguation) page where he broke 3RR twice before. He may have carefully evaded 3RR this time, but some of us had received warnings last time from admin User:katefan0, not to edit war. And so I refrained this time, but obviously Appleby hasn't.
    • I don't think Appleby is willing to communicate with us (or even listen to us) to reach any concensus. And some communication we already had in Talk:Sea of Japan shows that we are very far apart. Please discuss with admin User:Katefan0 what to do. I left a note with Katefan0 already. If you suggest mediation or arbitration, please lock this page (preferably at a concensus version) and we shall go into arbitration (or mediation) right away. Thank you.--Endroit 10:50, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: Link was removed as completely "off-topic" for the article on Jehovah's Witnesses. Its own description shows that it has nothing to do with Jehovah's Witnesses or the Watchtower, but is merely a personal site set up to attack a former associate of theirs. It's my understanding that that makes the link off-topic and irrelevant as a Resource link placed under Positive or Neutral Resources for the article. Unless wikipedia now allows for these sorts of links, I feel that the removal of the link was appropriate under Misplaced Pages guidelines, but will defer to the admins. You may also note that a separate link provided by the submitter concerning the Watchtower's teaching on 607 was never touched, as it IS on-topic and relevant to the article. Timothy Kline 22:19, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

    Link was removed 8 times without a single reason given. Tim, that is not appropriate Wikiquette (are you user:69.129.82.150?), and is a clear, and persistent (anon user was warned (and notified)) violation of WP:3RR. You may disagree with the links inclusion but you must talk these things out on the appropriate talk page when it is clear that others take exception to its removal. Duffer 23:07, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
    I was unaware of how to insert a reason during the removal process, and apologize for not providing a reason at the time. I believe I have since properly noted my confusion at the inclusion of the link, at the talk page for the article on Jehovah's Witnesses, and now await any responses there. Even so, it does not appear that the link at issue serves as a resource pertaining to the article itself, so much as it unabashedly admits to being a site devoted to criticizing another website and little else--thus constituting itself less a proper resource for the article on Jehovah's Witnesses and MORE as a proper resource of criticism against the e-watchman site. However, this discussion would probably be better served at the talk page. I simply wanted to respond to the complaint against my actions (I didn't know about the 3-max edits at the time, but now do and will not violate it further) and apologize accordingly. Timothy Kline 23:54, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
    I'm fine with that. Duffer 05:34, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

    There is no 3rr, the only reverts are the 2nd and 3rd. In the first he is changing the information in a section. In the 2nd and 3rd he reverts back to that change. In the 4th he changes a completly seperate section, and in the 5th he changes a ton. The amount of invalid 3RR reports that have been coming off of the Freemasonry and Freemasonry talk pages recently is alittle disturbing. Seraphim 22:16, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

    • So now I am three people? I am very confused. I reverted the links that I saw were deleted by someone "reverting." This seems like a personal attack.-Informativemiss 22:07, February 10, 2006
      • Disagreeing with your insistence on ignoring consensus is not a personal attack, and the consensus is that links to shock sites are not to be included in the article. You still reverted the addition of the links five times. Natgoo 23:11, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
    In fact, your first edit was to revert that link. KillerChihuahua 00:18, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
    I know, I wrote 'additions' in the comment above when I meant 'removals'. I'm a twit - sorry it wasn't clear. Natgoo 23:17, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

    Comments: He removed information from the article that was created via a discussion on the talk page, information that we feel to be NPOV and necessary to include because it is standard in all Game Console articles to have a blurb about marketshare. He's also removing the disclaimer that notes that sony only reports console's they have shipped not sales figures. Both are very POV changes. I placed the 3rr warning on his talk page, and he did it again without ever responding. Also the only edits the user has ever made are vandalizing Sony Playstation Series articles.

    5 reverts within a few minutes, also the reverts may be considered simple vandalism as he is removing valid content.

    this "valid content" is mentioned in the article. aparently you have been reading it. --tasc 11:36, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
    All the other things mentioned in the introduction are also mentioned in the article. The idea of an introduction is to provide an overview of the article. The criticism for war crimes is misleading if only Sabra & Shatila are mentioned - when all the favourable things are mentioned the criticism also needs to be dealt with in an appropriate way. Anyway, this doesn't matter. You broke the rule. Bye bye, see you when you are unblocked in 24 hours. Perhaps you then are ready to discuss your edits.

    • He appears to be the same person as User:Eggster and User:151.201.32.118 in one of the earlier 3RR reports that still is on this page and hasn't been archived yet. A few minutes ago I gave a warning to 151.201.32.118 after he did 5 reverts, at which point he switched over to Eggster and has done at least 1 revert as Eggster, possibly more as I'm writing this. I'm not going to go to any effort to prove that it's a sock puppet since it'll just be the same as last time, but an admin can easily check. While logged in as Eggster, he has had warnings for multiple things in the past, and has blanked his talk page presumably thinking that everyone'll forget that he already had violated 3RR in the past and had been warned already. --Atari2600tim 17:38, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

    • The 4th revert is a complex revert within an edit that attempts to disguise the restoration of User:Agapetos_angel's preferred wording.
    • This is the 3rd 3RR violation for User:Agapetos_angel at this article in the last 2 weeks
    • Page had been protected due to the actions of User:Agapetos_angel. User:Agapetos_angel filed misleading RfPP for unprotection, and was rv'ing again within 36 hours.

    I can see bits of #4 that could be considered reverts. But can you make them explicit, please? William M. Connolley 18:30, 11 February 2006 (UTC).

    Reverts (between 3 and 4) some are not word for word, but the tenor, the purpose, the spirit of the edit is effectively a revert:

    Biography

    3

    He has also had papers published in peer-reviewed scientific journals including co-authoring a "Letters to Nature"

    4

    Sarfati has had papers published in peer-reviewed scientific journals (Abstracts available on ScienceDirect.com).

    Writings

    3 His latest book, Refuting Compromise is a rebuttal of the day-age creationist teachings of Dr. Hugh Ross, who attempts to harmonize the Genesis account of creation with the belief that the earth is billions of years old, a position which Sarfati rejects.

    Also, Agapetos_angel continued to place Chess above Scientist in all four edits. This in spite of the large difference in Safarti's prominence as a YEC (working, per AiG, as a scientist) and as a chess player. Jim62sch 19:30, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

    Blocked (I thought I'd said that before... hmmm) William M. Connolley 20:34, 11 February 2006 (UTC).

    My talk page outlines why that fourth revision was an edit not a revert. Also, the assertion that I continued to place subsection Chess above subsection Scientist in all four edits is a false statement, as proven here that the subsections remained in the same order before and after each of my edits. In fact the order had not changed, aside from a typo by FM that he restored, until # 4, which made that the first true change, an edit in the overhaul where subsection Moral Issues was moved down. This is not a revert, because the Chess subsection has remained above Scientist thoughout all the edits by all the editors since long before the page protection. This is another false accusation. agapetos_angel 20:16, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
    The chess bit in indeed wrong, but the 4th edit is a revert. Please get over this, and return to productive edting. William M. Connolley 23:02, 13 February 2006 (UTC).

    • Comment As you can see in the history and in my talk page, LJ Drama airs nothing but rumour/gossip/PoV. If the content was changed to be more NPov, or if they cited their sources, or if they were willing to take into account that there is a more truthful version of events than their heavily slanted version, I just might concede. I stand by my deletions and will keep removing lies and rumour until my point has been made. -- Nathan 21:28, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
