Comments:
I've laid out my concerns over the editor's behaviour at the incidents noticeboard. Since that report, he has been engaged in a fierce edit war on a number of articles (the most blatant example is Yane Sandanski, but there are others, such as Todor Panitsa, Boris Sarafov). Initially, I tried to contact him via the talkpage, since he was guaranteed to see it there. Later, I found out he was actually an experienced editor who was well aware of his actions. I also get the impression he is bringing his personal feud with another editor from mk.wiki to en.wiki.--Laveol 11:04, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

I just add some more useful info., and provide the sources. That's all. I never delete anything, unlike others. Bobi987 Ivanov (talk) 11:46, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

You've been adding info directly from blogs, misinterpreted and misquoted a number of sources, and you've cluttered articles with unnecessary (mis)quotes. However, this is not the topic of discussion here. The question is why you continued to revert and revert, and doing it without a proper justification. You were warned that you needed to calm down. --Laveol 11:50, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Even if one has got impeccable sources, this is no reason to edit-war. Here's a summary of five reverts on Boris Sarafov:

5. .

At this rate (5 reverts/ 7 hours) you would break even a 15RR, if there were one. Also, you ignored my comments on the talk page. This is not the way to go. Tropcho (talk) 17:53, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Looking at this page I see at least one report whose outcome was affected by the reporter continuing to edit war while logged out. There are multiple IP editors involved in the edit war I am reporting; this report only covers the one I have tried and failed to communicate with.

Warned for edit-warring on a different article, clearly should understand the rule + has flagrantly violated it. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 13:32, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

It takes two to tango (or three in this case). User:TheRedPenOfDoom and NorthBySouthBaranof were edit warring the exact same edit to remove the wrong version rather than discussing the validity of the reference as a reliable source at the talk page, as they should have done instead. They have stopped below the 3RR hard limit, but that's not an excuse for continuing an edit war. They should be engaging the new editor instead of WP:BITEing him. I'd say a WP:BOOMERANG is in place for failing to follow proper behavior policies. Diego (talk) 13:39, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

If one is being reverted by multiple users, that's a good clue that they should stop. The user made no effort to discuss the issue on the talk page and blanked all attempts at discussing the issue on his user talk page. The idea that this is a WP:BOOMERANG issue is patently absurd. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 13:42, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

If it's obvious that one editor is new to Misplaced Pages, that's a good clue to follow Don't bite newcomers and stop edit warring yourself. I've seen you making three reverts to the same edit and adding a threatening message to the warning notice, NeilN making two, and TheRedPenOfDoom making another three (, , ) and insulted the newcomer by implying that he had an intent to disrupt. Old-timers should know better than that, and a 24h block for edit warring would be a good reminder. Diego (talk) 14:03, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

...no. That's laughable and you know it. It's not "gaming the system" for three different people to revert an editor who is singularly edit-warring. That is literally not even a thing. The entire point of 3RR is to remind a user that if they're getting reverted multiple times by multiple editors, that they're probably edit-warring. The reported user here was reverted multiple times by multiple editors. I'll be sure to waste your time in return and make unfounded demands that you be blocked. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 14:05, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

If all these editors had limited themselves to a single revert and had cared to properly explain how Javier's behavior was wrong, I would agree. However, you and I know that's not what happens here. Diego (talk) 14:28, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

"Old timers" should also know not to pass themselves off as neutral observers when they're clearly not. Diego was cautioned for edit warring on a related article. --NeilN 14:12, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

So what, you mean that civility and consensus-building can be thrown out the window when editors are involved? I've never said I'm a neutral observer (my edit history is clear at that very same article and talk pages), nor should that matter at the admin's noticeboard; what matter are documented breaches of policy. As a zero-tolerance editor against biters, my interest here is avoiding a newcomer being blocked by a tag-team. And I accept I may have been a bit leeway a couple of times recently, but you can see that I've been restraining from it, and you have yet to see mee tag-teaming against a newcomer. Diego (talk) 14:28, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Consensus-building means using the talk page when you're bold edit is reverted, especially by multiple editors. Not reverting again and again, saying "I won't give up to the truth". --NeilN 14:39, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

If you know that, why did you revert twice? Diego (talk) 15:32, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Has not participated in the talk page discussion here. --NeilN 13:36, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

User is now at 7 reverts and shows no sign of being interested in complying with policy; all attempts at discussion on their user talk page have been blanked. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 13:49, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Also possibly related: User:187.210.189.223, which is repeatedly and without explanation section-blanking material on a related article that this editor had previously removed. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 13:51, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

It's worth noting that @Javier2005: has stopped edit warring after someone actually cared to explain policy instead of tagging him and trying to win. Diego (talk) 14:07, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

It's worth noting that you're playing the victim card for someone who auto-blanked anything on his talk page. You should be blocked for 24 hours as a good reminder not to support edit warriors. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 14:10, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

No action is necessary here. We give leeway to new editors, since they can't be expected to know about our policies, but experienced people should know better. Since Javier now understands and has stopped, it would definitely be wrong to block him. It's tempting to block NorthBySouthBaranof, who clearly knows better and (judging by the comment of 14:10) indeed cares more about winning, but blocks shouldn't be punitive. Nyttend (talk) 14:16, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

If Javier2005 has stopped, that's fine. The rest is a poor assessment, all around. --NeilN 14:21, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Your "has not participated" statement is out of date; since you said that, he's added three comments at the talk page. Nyttend (talk) 14:30, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

If the edit warring has stopped, so much the better. But blocking NorthBySouthBaranof would be ridiculous. The problem at these pages isn't with among the "editors who know better", it's with the high number of new accounts coming in with a agenda.--Cúchullain /c 15:16, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

That's why editors are expected to make the new editor feel welcome and explain the expected behavior to the newcomer, instead of throwing them full head into a trial, barely thirty minutes after the content dispute started. As an administrator you should know, follow and enforce this, instead of justifying the behavior of those who breach the guideline. Diego (talk) 15:32, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Administrators need to focus on the editors causing disruption rather than those reporting disruption. Here the disruption is coming from one direction: the SPAs coming here with an outside agenda, and those who enable them.--Cúchullain /c 18:02, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

So that's your official stance as an administrator, that biting newcomers is not a disruption that merits admin attention? No wonder that editor retention is dismal. Diego (talk) 20:31, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

My official stance as an editor is that we spend far to much time navel-gazing and not nearly enough time dealing with blatant disruption so that content contributors can go about the business of building any encyclopedia.--Cúchullain /c 03:17, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

And in any case, using an aggressive warning message as the first comment you make to a new editor is unacceptable. @NorthBySouthBaranof:, next time please use {{Uw-ewsoft}} instead; you may find that those new editors behave in a much saner way and tend to stop edit warring, instead of them becoming angered.

Everything written on the Albinism page is true. Everything they wrote is complete bullshit. Why do you think you should be able to lie on that page? Because "white people" are scared to admit that they're albino? It's the first search result for albinism, so it should be an accurate description of the disorder. It's not my fault that you have Albinism.

I don't know what you're talking about Doug. You're seriously confused though if you think the lack of melanin in white people is different from the lack of melanin in Albinos. That's the only way people end up with lighter colored eyes, hair and skin. If brown melanin production were increased in people with OCA3, their eyes wouldn't turn blue and their hair would probably not be blonde or red(probably from pheomelanin, which is red). You've asked me to site my sources even after I posted two legitimate ones, and you can't even find evidence to prove your hypothesis yet think everyone should hear that over actual facts.

This is an edit war that goes back two days, 56 hours, and a total of five reverts. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:04, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

I stepped in as one of the editors involved has been discussing and attempting to seek consensus (asking for my input and that of the football project and finally on the article's talk page) while the reported editor has only been reverting. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:25, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

• Blocked – for a period of 48 hours. The user did not breach 3RR but stopped at 3 reverts. However, he has been edit warring on the same page since October 15. In addition, the user is a new WP:SPA with troubling and disruptive edits elsewhere on the project in the short time they've been here. The user's limited English and repeated use of Indonesian on talk pages makes it that much more difficult to understand what he is doing. Even though he retracted the personal attack directed at Walter, at the same time he promised to revert as often as was necessary to maintain his version of the article.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:42, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Comments:
From a quick perusal of the history. The number may be higher, but they may not have been listed as such; that was just ones I found with the line "reverted" or "undid" in the edit. There appears to have been an edit war between him and @Butter and Cream: over closing a topic of discussion regarding a factual statement in the article. Ryulong has had something of an issue with regards to this in the past on the article, trying to close discussion over NPOV issues that the article has had. The article has had a DRN about NPOV and undue weight issues and is presently having mediation set up to deal with these issues as the discussion became too complicated for a DRN. Ryulong has steadfastly refused to be involved in either.

Ryulong simultaneously claims that there is consensus for his point of view and that he has to continually close discussions on the subject matter, and yet refuses to participate in mediation or the DRN on the issue. Titanium Dragon (talk) 07:01, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

The edit war ended and has not continued for at least an hour. Anything now is long after the "dispute" so to call it has ended. And I did not do any such closing that he claims to have happened. I refuse to involve myself in those dispute resolution aspects because they are just new forms of forum shopping by people trying to push a POV and encountering opposition from established editors who know how the site is supposed to work. And I still stand by the fact that you, Titanium Dragon, should never have been unbanned from this topic area on that stupid loophole you discovered. And I will fight tooth and nail if I am going to be blocked over some fucking SPA meatpuppet garbage.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 07:05, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

And what the fuck is this shit?—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 07:09, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

In my defense, my part of the "edit war" was simply opening the section Ryulong kept closing. At one point he also kept removing my additional comments to the section. --Butter and Cream (talk) 07:06, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

That's not a valid reason to edit war. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 07:09, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Pot calling the kettle black. --Butter and Cream (talk) 07:11, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Actually, no. I reverted precisely once and stepped away. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 07:15, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

At one point it seemed like even you were struggling with Ryu's edits, and seemed like you were editing out his goofs at that point. Which is what I were mostly doing in this "edit war". --Butter and Cream (talk) 07:17, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

The other editor, User:Butter and Cream, is just as guilty of edit-warring. Note that the editor's complaint on ANI was closed as several editors noted that the issue is long-settled and Butter and Cream needs to drop the stick. The user's third edit was to ANI, which is rather suggestive that they know and understand policy. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 07:09, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

NorthBySouthBaranof also edit-warred at one point. The only one who didn't partake was Titanium Dragon. --Butter and Cream (talk) 07:11, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

False, as above. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 07:15, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

User:Butter and Cream has been indefinitely blocked as a disruptive single-purpose account. Ryulong should be commended for acting to prevent this account from disrupting the encyclopedia any further and this matter should be closed. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 07:30, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

It is really irrelevant to Ryulong's own disruptive behavior, doubly so given that Ryulong himself was desysopped for abusing the rules in the past to get users banned who disagreed with him, and for blocking users himself. Indeed, in the light of his past behavior, I would say that additional scrutiny on this matter (and on the other user's ban) is very important here.

Jesus Christ are you seriously going to just dig up everything bad I may have done in the past 8 years I've been on this website? People in glass houses, man.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 07:47, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

It is a pattern of behavior. Generally speaking, people are not supposed to be banned for one instance of behavior, something you should know very well, given that you got in trouble for it in the past. You also had issues with baiting people, which honestly your repeated warning of others about WP:STICK and pre-emptive closing of discussions and other behavior strongly smacks of. It does take two users to get in an edit war, but sometimes one user's actions help to create one. Given that the other person got blocked, I think it is appropriate to ask this question, because, well, you do have a history of it. As for glass houses: you clearly haven't paid much attention to what I've done in the past. My snout is quite clean; I haven't been involved in anything really exciting "rules wise" outside of GamerGate. Titanium Dragon (talk) 08:04, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

I never fucking baited anyone. You are picking some random shit out of the "Proposed principles" section of a 5 year old ArbCom case that is not mentioned at all in any of the proposed or final findings of fact or decisions. If you want me banned, do it through the proper channels. Don't make an AN3 thread because I was dealing with someone who was not here for the encyclopedia.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 08:07, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

The user in question brought up the question of issues about the claim that the claims were "unfounded" when in fact the source for the claim was the company whose integrity was (and has been) called into question, ultimately relied entirely on the testimony of the journalist in question (because it was a secretive personal relationship), and the source says that they found no evidence for the relationship starting prior to the publication of the article, rather than that the claims were false. That is an entirely legitimate question, and the claim that they're not here for Misplaced Pages is simply false - that is an entirely reasonable thing to talk about and question. We are supposed to hold to WP:BLP here, and WP:NPOV and WP:IMPARTIAL, and his question was entirely polite and well-founded, given that the only source for this is someone who has a vested interest in his company not being seen as incapable of policing its own reporters. How is that being WP:NOTHERE? This sort of thing is very important, and WP:RS even notes that inline citations for stuff like this is important, doubly so when there are potential issues of bias or conflict of interest.

This is not a venue to continue the content dispute which has been dealt with on a bidaily basis ever since the article left your hands.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 08:34, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

If you have something against Ryulong that doesn't involve reverting a now-blocked disruptive SPA, I suggest you open an ANI thread about it rather than try and turn this thread into open season. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 07:51, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

This is for edit warring. One of the users in question was banned. It is relevant. Titanium Dragon (talk) 08:04, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Did you seriously claim that the warning two weeks ago for actions on the article itself constitute a warning for archiving that thread made by an intentionally disruptive user now? Titanium Dragon, you are drawing at straws and need to be banned from the topic area again. And this request should be closed as stale.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 09:09, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

• Result: User:Butter and Cream has been indefinitely blocked by User:Future Perfect at Sunrise per the ANI discussion. If this needs to be debated further, please use ANI. EdJohnston (talk) 13:40, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
