    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.

    Previous version reverted to: The disputed text identifies the film as "Canadian". The edit war over this particular text is many years old, and even the most recent battle has been raging for months. I don't have time to go all the way back in the page history to find the original version reverted to. The diffs below cover only the last month.

    Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: The two users have already warned each other about "edit warring" and "vandalism" multiple times via edit summaries (see above diffs) and on the article talk page.

    Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: … … Additional attempts at resolution (added by Pincrete) Here :- and Here:-

    Comments:

    Preliminary response from Pincrete, I hope that I am editing in the right place, if not please move this post. I am glad that this matter has come to a noticeboard and intended myself to initiate admin. action. As a preliminary response I wish 1). to draw attention to my many attempts on talk to resolve this, prior to, and in spite of 'vandalistic' reverts (I characterise these reverts thus as they include restoring ungrammatical English, removing text which has been in the article for more than two years unreferenced (some of it covered by BLP) , seemingly, for no better reason than that I had added long overdue references) … … 2) to draw attention to the fact that I ALREADY called a 'truce' prior to this matter coming to this noticeboard, my reasons for calling this 'truce' were that UrbanVillager, had extended his vandalism into removing whole sections of the article (criticism section), then - grudgingly - restoring his 'modified' versions, which again actually factually contravened BLP. These 'revisions' were written prejudicially and there had been long term consensus regarding reliability of sources for the whole section. (I called a 'truce' only, and explicitly because I saw the need for admin intervention, not because of any valid arguments) … … 3) I also draw attention to the 'edit reasons' given by UrbanVillager, which are frequently abusive, blame people who are not responsible for content and which - on at least one occasion - have been overtly racist. … … 4) I acknowledge engaging in an 'edit war', but did so ONLY when every possible avenue of resolution was exhausted, and when the clear wish of the majority of editors was being over-ruled and every conceivable compromise was simply ignored. 5) I have NEVER sought to impose a prejudicial claim as to the nationality of this film, merely to assert that we either give weight to ALL RSs, or, - even simpler - omit mention of nationality. 6) I am unsure whether User:Bobrayner has been notified, however since he has been a party to this dispute, I intend to notify him. … …Lastly, I draw attention to my own edit record, which - prior to this event - amounts to almost NEVER having used the 'undo' button. I will post more fully when there is time.Pincrete (talk) 13:05, 5 September 2014 (UTC)


    I'm not going to dispute anything, the evidence is there, though I would've appreciated a warning before this was reported here. The main reason why I reverted was because Pincrete kept removing the word "Canadian" before "documentary film", even though The Weight of Chains was produced by a Canadian production company, the film credits themselves point out that "This is a Canadian film" and there are credible sources (I listed around 7, some were removed by Pincrete) that testify that the film is Canadian. Considering the fact that Pincrete has, more than once, pushed his or her POV in regards to Boris Malagurski-related articles, I simply lost my patience and kept reverting as I saw the removal of reliably sourced content as vandalism. However, I did remove sourced content myself - the "Criticism" section - but the sources listed there were blogs (yes, blogs), so I thought that was unacceptable for Misplaced Pages. If I made a mistake, I deeply apologize and await Misplaced Pages's punishment with respect. Regards, --UrbanVillager (talk) 12:04, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

    • Result: Both Pincrete and UrbanVillager are warned that they may be blocked without notice if either of them they reverts again before consensus is reached on Talk. Consider asking for assistance at WP:3O or WP:DRN. More advice is at WP:Dispute resolution. The topic of this film is covered by WP:ARBMAC. That decision allows giving article bans if it is found that an editor is unable to work in a neutral manner. EdJohnston (talk) 14:01, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

    Comments:

    This user was recently placed under WP:1RR. He had previously edit-warred at War in Donbass, despite being aware that his edits were subject to discretionary sanctions there, and hence was blocked for two weeks. As a condition of his unblocking, he submitted to being under WP:1RR. Today, he has already broken this restriction. He clearly has not learned any lessons at all from his recent experience. Perhaps a topic ban under discretionary sanctions is in order. RGloucester 15:50, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

    I already brought this to the talk page, so I don't get why Diffs of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page is blank. I don't understand how this goes against WP:1RR was I reverted two separate edits. Yeoman 2 15:54, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
    Perhaps you should've read the guideline cited by the unblocking administrator, DangerousPanda, which he told you to read carefully. As it says at WP:3RR, linked at that guideline, "An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page—whether involving the same or different material—within a 24-hour period". It doesn't matter who's edit it was. You can only revert one edit, in total, for 24 hours. RGloucester 16:01, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
    • Blocked – for a period of 12 days I have taken the original 2 week block, subtracted 2 days previously served before accepting editing restrictions. Next block escalates to 1 month the panda ₯’ 20:10, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
