Comments: Saladin1987 is a pro-Pakistani/anti-Afghanistan POV pushing vandal who as his editing policy must always remove "Afghan" and "Afghanistan" from pages. , , , , I avoid people who have negative energy circling around them but this one had to be reported at this time because he's destroying well written articles.

To me Saladin1987 is one of the most disruptive editors who hasn't been detected by admins since his last 1 month block. He appearantly hasn't learned his lesson. In addition to his extreme anti-Afghanistan pov pushing and vandalizing pages, I'm almost 100% certain that he is another sock puppet of User:Mar4d. They are both Pakistani ultra-nationalists editing from Australia (likely "Brisbane"), making identical edits on the same articles and showing the same racist attitude toward Afghans and Indians.--Krzyhorse22 (talk) 11:21, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

@Krzyhorse22: Do not make accusations against other users that they are socks. If you are so certain, then open an WP:SPI. You have been warned about this before.--Bbb23 (talk) 05:13, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Bbb23, this report is obviously about Saladin1987 violating 3rr, vandalizing major articles and pov pushing as you know him for. I see no logical reason for you concentrating on me instead of him. I'm making constructive edits only to improve articles and help build Misplaced Pages's reputation as a reliable source. Do you see anyone having any problems with my edits? Is there anyone reporting me for any bad behavior? I hate to say this but you seem to be under Saladin's influence or something because you're trying to act like his lawyer in trying to legitimize his actions now. Please stop this behavior and show respect to a fellow editor who is helping the project. Misplaced Pages is based in USA so the principle of Double jeopardy must be applied here, especially among Americans like you and me. That is the sock charge was dismissed (whatever the reason was) so it should not be brought again unless I violate the rule or something. Thank you for understanding.--Krzyhorse22 (talk) 06:31, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

i have thrice asked User:Krzyhorse22 to reach a concensus before adding anything in the article. He has deliberately added content without having a discussion on talk page which i have started in the talk page. If i am wrong anybody can have a look at the talk page which clearly states that lets reach concensus before added disputed information. He has reported me but himself has broken 3 revert rule Saladin1987 17:51, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

The links he has mentioned has no sense as Afghan in modern sense relates to Afghanistan and not to Pashtuns anymore. He seems to live in 16th century who wants the articles according to 16th century identities. if the poet is born on Pakistani side , pakistan is going to be added. Similarly there was no Afghanistan before 1800s but there are articles which User:Krzyhorse22 has added Afghanistan to although the articles belong to people born far before than that. But as he has reported me for the article Pashtun people, i should stay with this article. I have many times left comments on talk page and edit page that we should have a concensus before proceeding but he seems to push his own opinions neglecting the opinions of millions of pashtuns of Pakistan. If i am found guilty and wrong, i surely should be blocked but i would appreciate the admins to have a look at the edit history and talk page before making any decision. thankyouSaladin1987 18:03, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

i even asked assistance here but you can see his reply on the talk page. he is making baseless accusations against me being anti indian. ] Saladin1987 18:06, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

I left several message in talk not to remove certain content but he did it anyway and laughed. This guy doesn't care about Misplaced Pages rules or anything, he just wants to promote Punjabis/Pakistan and put down Pashtuns/Afghanistan, and he doesn't care about being blocked (indication he is a sock, notice the main account is not coming here to deny the sock charge). His lenghthy nonsense regarding Afghanistan and Pakistan, and his wild (unsourced) claims everywhere are very disruptive. Most of all, he is targetting a specific group and country (Afghan people / Afghanistan) and he isn't even shy to admit this. He defines an ethnic group by language and wants to force this view in Misplaced Pages on everyone.--Krzyhorse22 (talk) 22:29, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

I have figured a little bit. Check Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Highstakes00. OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 07:23, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

I am myself, i am not any other user as suggested by Krzyhorse22. I am in Pakistan not in Brisbane as suggested by the person who is tagging me with baseless accusations.

I provided information that shows you're likely editing from Australia, where the other person claimed to be , this is supported by the fact that you call others "mate" (which is commonly used in Australia and never in Pakistan). In Pakistan they use "yar" or "yaar". In addition, the things you write about Afghans/Pashtuns in talk pages is clearly showing to me that you're in Australia because in that country there are more ethnic Hazaras and Tajiks (Persians) than Pashtuns and this is reflected in your personal opinions. Do you get what I'm saying? If you didn't actually live in Australia how would you known all of this? The last thing Pakistanis living in Pakistan would want to know about which Afghan ethnic group is higher in Western countries. Finally, I have caught that other guy who always thinks like you and appears where you appear for abusing multiple accounts in another site and he got blocked after a CU confirmed it. He was using this IP (from Brisbane ) and showing anti-Indian sentiment the same way you show it (e.g., removing images of Indian Pashtuns from major articles and writing nonsense to justify this ). This edit by that same Brisbane IP made an edit right after his additional account User:Drspaz. That same Brisbane IP once wrote this message and just the other day you wrote this message. They both appear to be very much the same. You may try to act like Yosemite Sam all you want but the fact is you aren't in Pakistan, unless you can prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.--Krzyhorse22 (talk) 07:36, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Comments:

User has stated on my talk page that he will continue reverting no matter what. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 23:28, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

I will stop reverting for a short time while we discuss this. I will admit that the first contribution contained a sentence which was too strongly-worded. All subsequent modifications I made were reasonable. There is no way we can improve this page if this editor is going to revert anything that questions O'brien's claims - which are extremely suspect. O'brien claims to have "defined the frame problem in artificial intelligence," when in fact that problem was defined before he was born. I added a source showing his claim of this, and a link to the Misplaced Pages article showing the actual history of the frame problem. These edits are non-controversial. If we have to discuss everything on the talk page before doing even simple modifications, nothing will get done. 50.184.134.157 (talk) 23:33, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Also I object to being referred to as "he". This is the kind of attitude that is holding wikipedia back.50.184.134.157 (talk) 23:35, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Template:Comment from uninvolved editor Simple modifications, such as fixing a typo or changing to better wording, are fine. However, edits like the edits you want to make must be discussed on the talk page first per WP:CONSENSUS. - Amaury (talk) 23:39, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

I didn't realize that addition of (sourced!) content required discussion on the talk page. If someone can somehow prove that O'brien traveled back in time and defined the frame problem before he was born, I will admit I was wrong. But until then it seems extremely non-controversial to point out that his claims about this accomplishment are false. I provided a source to the place on his website where he makes the assertion, and a link to the Misplaced Pages article that shows it is incorrect. What is the problem here? Winkelvi is the one who is edit-warring by repeatedly hindering progress on this article.50.184.134.157 (talk) 23:52, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

While I agree with the filer on this, may I also point out they, have once again breached 3RR as though last week's block or an even more recent warning have had no impact on them. EoRdE6 23:42, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

• Not blocked. I did impose a block on this user as I hadn't yet seen their comment here, but I just unblocked them under the condition that they remain true to their word and stop reverting in order to discuss the matter. The user is warned that the block will be reinstated if they continue to edit war. Swarm... 23:46, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

EoRdE6, take note that this article is a BLP and the IP editor was continually inserting controversial and unreferenced content about a living, breathing person. BLPs are a very different animal. If you also note, I stopped reverting his possibly libelous content additions and allowed other watchers to take over. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 23:50, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Again, the content I inserted was referenced. And again, are correct (or none at all) gender pronouns too much to ask for? 50.184.134.157 (talk) 23:55, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

I fully agree with the BLP concerns, thus your reversions are exempt from 3RR. Regardless of the merits of the IP's argument, her wording was certainly too biased to be acceptable in a BLP. That being said, given your recent history, it's probably not a great idea to rely on 3RR exemptions too much. Swarm... 23:59, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Especially when there are certain editors just chomping at the bit to see me blocked and will do whatever they can to make sure that happens. Yes, that happens in Misplaced Pages (sadly). Aside from that truth, I hear what you are saying, Swarm. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 00:10, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Okay, so how do we proceed? Winkelvi has given no indication of what was wrong with my contribution, which was sourced and was highly non-controversial. I guess I just don't get to make that contribution because Winkelvi has decided to revert it over and over and then accuse ME of edit warring? How is this an efficient way to run an encyclopedia? I haven't heard one bit of explanation for why it's conceivable that O'brien's claims of inventing the frame problem are true. Just because he's a "living, breathing person" means we can't provide evidence against his claims without going through some complicated consensus process? 50.184.134.157 (talk) 00:11, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Seeing no explanation, and considering Winkelvi's history of edit warring, I'm going to proceed with improving the article. I'll be sure to avoid direct criticisms of the article's subject, but I will not leave unverifiable technobabble in this article. As it stands now, it is extremely misleading and reads almost like an advertisement for O'brien's business.50.184.134.157 (talk) 00:33, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Discussion on article changes and improvements are supposed to take place at the article talk page, not at the 3RR noticeboard, User:50.184.134.157, that's why you aren't getting answers here. Further, another editor's "history of edit warring" has nothing to do with your choice to edit war. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 00:38, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

• Update: I just left the following message on Swarm's talk page, but don't know if they will be back any time soon to see it: The IP User:50.184.134.157 you immediately unblocked and warned is back to inserting the same content at the Walter O'Brien article as before. He first announced it here: and proceeded here: , . He also now claims a reputable source isn't a reputable source and will likely remove the source. He is also planning on deleting quite a bit of sourced content . Which is everything they promised to do before they were blocked, so... -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 01:22, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

And now he's saying this: , intending to utilize WP:IAR to justify adding WP:SYNTH. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 02:24, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

And now saying he's just going to continue edit warring (). But why shouldn't he? He was given the message that it's perfectly okay to do so because even if you get blocked, you'll just get unblocked in a few minutes. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 05:49, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

I admit that the change I proposed in the talk page needs discussion. That's why I posted it there. I won't carry it out unless there is consensus. The changes I did carry out are non-controversial, and I repeatedly asked you for any conceivable reason why someone could object to them, and you couldn't give me any. There is no problem here. 50.184.134.157 (talk) 01:32, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

I support WV on this. The IP editor has reverted again, re-adding material they'd added before, despite saying they would not. A block is now in order. Skyerise (talk) 01:44, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

I didn't say I wouldn't re-add the material, I said I would pause to listen to WV's reasoning behind not making my properly-sourced, non-controversial changes. They haven't provided any explanation for their mysterious objections to the changes, so I see no reason to wait indefinitely. 50.184.134.157 (talk) 01:48, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

The IP editor has now been blocked for a week by User:Ymblanter for BLP violations. EdJohnston (talk) 14:23, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

List of tallest people (Result: Filer warned)

Hello. Can an admin please look into the article of the List of tallest people? I tried to add the tallest mass murderers such as Osama bin Laden and two users continue to revert my edit and they call it ridiculous and vandalism. One on these two users also dared to call my constructive editing "Vandalism". Can you please handle it out? And please tell me if my edit to this article was right or not. Thanks! Samhan Dobo (talk) 00:16, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

• Comment Wrong place for this really, you should post on Talk:List of tallest people EoRdE6 00:21, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Let me list all the things that are wrong with this:

(1). You created a category "Tallest mass murderers" with no-one else in it.

(2). The category you made was incorrectly formatted.

(3). You did not provide a source for his height.

(4). You listed him as being from Afghanistan, when his nationality on Osama Bin Laden is Saudi Arabian until 1994 and stateless afterwards.

(5). Listing his years of birth as 1957- implies he's still alive, which he isn't.

And now on here, your mistakes are:

(1). This isn't a well formed request, since you haven't provided version differences showing edit warring.

(2). You have failed to inform the user(s) that you reported, which you are obliged to do so. Joseph2302 (talk) 00:24, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Also, I think this issue should be discussed here, because reporting a user to the edit warring board with no serious evidence, when they've been adding incorrect, unreferenced information to an article is grossly insulting to myself and @Loriendrew: (who still hasn't been informed about this ridiculous accusation), who are being accused of edit warring unjustifiably. This user should be banned for improper conduct, and unexplained harassment of other users, by trying to get them blocked for removing the unsourced rubbish they added to an article. Joseph2302 (talk) 00:43, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

@Joseph2302: Calm down a tad. First we don't BAN for a bad report to 3RR, heck I doubt it deserves a BLOCK. These aren't for punishment remember, they are to prevent damage. The user appears to have done this in good faith and you should try assuming that sometimes instead of shouting "VANDAL, ban (??) it!" at confused users. EoRdE6 00:50, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

There's no need to add Bin Laden to the list, and they're accusing me of gross misconduct (edit warring is gross misconduct on Misplaced Pages). Also, I meant ban not block. I'm trying to assume good faith, the first few edits were rolled back with a clear edit summary, saying that this was POV and unsourced. The responding edit summaries were "There is no source needed" and "That's your opinion and I don't care", followed by a report on here. I've tried to assume good faith, they have not. Joseph2302 (talk) 00:57, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

@Joseph2302: Whether you wish to assume good faith or not in your head is up to you, but labeling the edits by a new account as vandalism is not constructive unless it's garden variety vandalism. So, don't. Asking that a user be banned at this board makes no sense.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:11, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

• Note. @Samhan Dobo: You are warned that if you revert again at the article, you risk being blocked without any further notice. You just created your account. Slow down. If you want to discuss the material you want to add to the article, do so civilly at the article's Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:06, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

OK, understood. But it is really a mess from Joseph that he calls me a vandal and that he wants you to ban me from editing the Misplaced Pages! That'S really rude and stupid from him! I'm new here and all I want to give the Misplaced Pages are constructive contributions. And ok, I will add my request to the talk page of it's article. Thanks that you didn't block me. And how about a Welcome thread instead of adding stupid warnings to my talk page?! Samhan Dobo (talk) 11:22, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

I overreacted, and I'm sorry. For 99% of new posters who post things I consider unhelpful, I send a welcome message, but I got was wrong here and assumed that you were trying to vandalise, because most people who add Bin Laden (or other terrorists) to articles are trying to vandalise Misplaced Pages. About the content, I'm going to write on the talkpage, and I also sent you a welcome message on your page. Joseph2302 (talk) 17:34, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

It's ok. You don't have to feel sorry. I'm sorry for editwarring. And thanks for your welcome message. Samhan Dobo (talk) 20:58, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Comments:

So I recently added Waldorf education, Camphill movement, Anthroposophy, and Anthroposophical medicine to Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Skepticism, and have met with some pretty severe pushback from some editors with marked WP:COI. Hgilbert initially began reverting all of my good faith edits and removing the criticisms I added which come from a number of WP:RS, including The BBC, the New York Times, the Chicago Tribune, The Guardian, and the Atlantic. He even remarked on several occasions that newspapers should not be treated as WP:RS in the same way that his Anthroposophist Academic papers should be. (see talk page)

Subsequently, Hgilbert, and two other users (who I believe to be meat puppets) began reverting every revision, and neutering all of the NPOV that I added. These users all have a long history in this articles, including several ArbComs. Several passing users, Jeraphine Gryphon, Whitehat2009, and Dkriegls all attempted to help, but were also reverted or ignored. I posted numerous times on the talk page, and consensus was never reached in favor of removing the well-sourced claims I placed in the article. Hgilbert even accused me of being a sockpuppet of a previously banned activist editor instead of answering the arguments and working towards consensus. I try to AGF here, but all I see are reverts and rephrasings back to what these editors believe is the best this article can be. I don't think Hgilbert is here to create a wiki, I think he's here to neuter all criticism in this realm of articles, since he has a very blatant COI, and edits towards that COI's POV endlessly.

Could you temporarily protect it while I escalate to Dispute Resolution? Thanks--Shibbolethink 04:32, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

• Page protected. Well, Shibbolethink, you got your wish, although you're just as guilty as the other editors. I've locked the article for a week. I have no comments on the accusations of meat puppetry. Yes, you can report several users in one report, but you are required to notify them of this report, which I don't believe you did.--Bbb23 (talk) 04:44, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk:New York Red Bulls#Nicknames

Comments:

There was, pursuant to a recent discussion, a consensus to remove the "metros" nickname from the infobox for this MLS team, based on the lack of any sourcing showing that it is actually a current nickname. This new user has reverted every removal, and refused to discuss in any fashion. They apparently signed up for a different account and forgot the password (it's a slightly misspelled name the first time). But the diff here is substantially the same and also a new user making their first edit. Clearly the same user. Good faith tells me that they just forgot their new log in (it happens) but that means the user, presuming it is the same person, is actually at 5 reverts. oknazevad (talk) 15:06, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

The user in question appears to have something of a vendetta against Viringo. The company's activities are controversial, but we do not factually describe companies as "patent trolls" based on the word of a single commentator; it is no doubt notable enough to mention in the lede of the article that commentators have depicted it as such, but to state as a fact violates WP:NPOV.

User was blocked for edit warring over a variety of articles, and talk page access was revoked. Coming off his block yesterday, his only contributions have been to pick up the wars again and return to reverting changes without discussion.

See edits to Creationism, Maitreya, Bochasanwasi Shri Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha, etc, which are all continuations of his prior edit war.

Edits are to a variety of pages, so semi-protection isn't feasible. Another block for a few days might encourage him to move on.   — Jess· Δ♥ 04:41, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:

Comments: Today I fixed a problematic classification in the lead section of this article (the consensus among sources seems to be that it is a nationalist party with leftist economic platform. Therefore, just "far-right" in the lead makes no sense, even if there may be a handful of sources that have this label). A user with whom I had a dispute on another talk page, started this "revenge" edit war. I know, that he didn't violate 3 reverts rule directly, but this kind of behaviour: follwoing a perceived enemy and reverting his constructive changes is unacceptable.Phil070707 (talk) 18:25, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Additional comment: I would not be opposed to leaving the classification "left-wing" out of the lead, if this is an issue for someone (leaving just "nationalist", which is indisputable). However, the current version Marek kept reverting to is totally unacceptable for 2 reasons: - 1. a party cannot be "far-right" and "left-wing" at the same time 2. the so-called source Marek is using for his odd classification is a newspaper article where the Rodina is mentioned just once passing by with no additional information while the 2 sources I refer to are scholarly sources which clearly take precedence over less reliable sources. Phil070707 (talk) 18:34, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Update: here we go again: Volunteer Marek has now basically decided to revert ANY edit I've made with the wrong allegation - personal assault - that I'm a sock puppet. How long can he go on like that? Phil070707 (talk) 19:49, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

This is not a 3RR violation and the above account is a screamin', yellin', quackin' DUCK WITH MEGAPHONE of Indef banned user Lokalkosmopolit.

Suspecting that someone may be a multiple account of someone does not give you the right to start idiotic edit wars. Discuss the issue on appropriate venues! And as for 3 RR, UI never claimed you performed more than 3 reverts, and this is not a single case on your part but part of your wider editing pattern: provoking edit wars on the Eastern European topics. Just a quick look at your contributions list demonstrates it: (some examples: , . Phil070707 (talk) 18:47, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

your wider editing pattern: provoking edit wars on the Eastern European topics - this is nonsense, except for the fact that it further demonstrates that you are indeed the sockpuppet of the user I mention above, since they tried to falsely accuse me of exactly the same thing.Volunteer Marek (talk) 18:49, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Volunteer Marek has made exactly the same number of reverts on this page as the complainant. Neither of them have broken the three-revert rule.

Recommend 24 hour block for Phil070707 for trying to game the system.-- Toddy1 (talk) 18:43, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

My edits were well explained. I'm not gaming the system but improving the quality of articles. The version before my edits was deficient as I explained at the respective talk page. None of you two managed to present any decent counterarguments to my view. Phil070707 (talk) 18:47, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Yes I have. A simple counter argument - the info you're trying to remove is reliably sourced (just like the info you tried to remove in your previous incarnations was sourced). You just don't agree with the source. That's your problem, not Misplaced Pages's.Volunteer Marek (talk) 18:51, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

If you think the absurd lead like ″Rodina or Motherland-National Patriotic Union (Rodina - Narodno-Patrioticheskiy Soyuz, Партия "РОДИНА") is a far-right political party in Russia. It was a coalition of 30 nationalist and left-wing groups″ is preferrable to the reasonable one I wrote then I doubt whether you actually are fit to edit constructively. Phil070707 (talk) 18:57, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

As far as Toddy1 is concerned, I'd add that this is yet another problematic editor from the Ukraine-Russia topics. He is no neutral 3. party! Like VM he is prone to concocting ideological nonsense like ″neo-Nazi/fascist/Stalinist writer Alexander Prokhanov″ which the neutral editors then have to fix . Phil070707 (talk) 19:09, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Making personal attacks at an admin noticeboard is ulikely to help your case. it might to wise to strike those quickly. Also you failed to follow Bold-revert-discuss when you were reverted it should have gone to the talk page to discuss. Amortias (T)(C) 19:16, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

I agree to change my comment. We need to remain rational and calm. As for the cycle you refer to, I started a thread at the respective talk page and made constructive proposals - to no avail. VM is not interested in improving the article. Phil070707 (talk) 19:19, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

That personal attack above against Toddy, the fact that Phil070707 is apparently familiar with them (despite having supposedly NEVER interacted with them), the calling of people "idiots" is just more proof that this is a sockpuppet of User:Lokalkosmopolit. Compare: . As is his arguing over the politics of Alexander Prokhanov, which is also what Lokalkosmopolit (more precisely one of their sock puppets, User:Patriot Donbassa) did: . It's him. Indef banned user socking and provoking edit wars. Just block and tag, save regular editors some time rather than forcing them to deal with nonsense.Volunteer Marek (talk) 19:51, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

I am NOT a sock puppet of the said user. You know very well that sock puppet investigations should be pursued at the respective page. Your allegations constitute a personal assault and you use these as a red herring to justify your revert warring spree. Phil070707 (talk) 19:54, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

  • Bbb23, thx for recognizing what I've been up against (at least four editors taking turns reverting my edits). The last revert by me was made on the basis of WP:BLP (as said at WP:RPP and article Talk). I actually would prefer that you locked down the article for two weeks instead of one; however, your lockdown came after user Bullrangifer (in cooperation w/ editors Rhode Island Red and Jytdog) restored the offending material. (Additionally, his editsum contained not rationale just re-assertion: "restore perfectly good opinion of subject expert". In response to my editsum!?: "this text doesn't contribute to its article sec, and contains unsubstantiated claims of wrong of wrong-doing".) Thanks for your consider. IHTS (talk) 20:58, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
    • Implicit in your remarks is you want me to back out the last change to the article because of WP:BLP concerns. It's my view that the BLP problem is debatable. Thus, I think that should be one of the issues that you and the others work out on the article Talk page, or any other appropriate forum like WP:BLPN. And I sincerely hope you can work it out. Otherwise, there may be blocks if editors start restoring their own version after the protection expires.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:50, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
      • Bbb23, yes that's what I meant, thanks for your attention & your above reply. p.s. I understand discussion/consensus vs. reverting. (But my Q is, do the other four editors who have been reverting me? I mean, the gall of opening this thread at same time admitting to have also excessively reverted themself, what is that?! It was a perfect WP:BOOMERANG, but I'm not complaining. I'm glad some attention has been brought to bear. I presume when there are conflicts like this at the article, no admin may be aware!? This is my first time at WP:ANEW. Thx again for your attentions.) IHTS (talk) 09:54, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
        • Administrators are obviously not aware of all the disputes going on at Misplaced Pages. It depends on whether there's a report at a noticeboard, a report somewhere else, the page is on their watchlist, etc. I don't want to speculate too much about the future. Another battle after the lock expires may trigger multiple blocks, or it may not. The only reason I singled you out wasn't just because you were reported but because, as I said, you appeared to be reverting more than the others. At the end of the day, you should focus on your own conduct and try not to get hung up on the equities of why-am-I-blocked-but-so-and-so-is-not. It's human to do that, but if you keep your nose clean, you shouldn't have anything to worry about.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:52, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

The user is consistently pushing to include his article on some management school, which did not turn out notable per this deletion discussion.

Again this does not even come close to your notice here. Your actions are quite questionable to say the least now and only getting more strained. Stop the witch hunt and return to the talk page; or use a better and more correct board for your grievance. TCKTKtool (talk) 23:37, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

And now I see you messaging as many as you can to revert and back you up. Maybe a Admin will also look at your actions now. boomerang TCKTKtool (talk) 23:41, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

It is wikipedia policy for me to bring edit warring to this noticeboard. Before I did so, you threatened to do the same to Human3015 right here: , so I am not sure why you are complaining on that front. I posted messages to the Talk pages of other involved parties, as is customary. I have no issue with admins looking at my actions. ― Padenton |☎  23:50, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Yes I did that but unlike you I did not rush into it. I now see that is a sock puppet account. Again if you had taken the time to see you would not have posted a notice here that has already been proven incorrect. I have been following the rules and requested a outside view of the talk page now, as things are supposed to handled. TCKTKtool (talk) 23:53, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Texasreb continues to edit this article contrary to consensus. He has been blocked three times for his actions on this article. He has been adding a quote from a Confederate official in the diffs listed above -- first a long version and the last three a shorter version. Four editors have spoken against the changes while none have supported Texasreb's edits.

His most recent comment on the discussion page is here . It seems clear to me that he has no intention of respecting consensus and is fully aware of being blocked.

There are exemptions, vandalism or clear not seeing of the hidden message, that says 10 reviews only, which most of that was. And I removed it when I saw it. I'm not supposed to do that? And might I note that you are Hounding me? And you tend to not care about others when they are edit warring? Especially himself, as he reverted 3 edits on Walter O'Brien by an IP user. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 04:29, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Lots of edit warring by IPs and a few SPAs seeking to include some vlog as a source as well as reversion of non NPOV language. Joseph has been pretty trigger happy with the undo button when he should have gone to WP:RFPP but I don't think this is edit warring. Blackmane (talk) 05:13, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Relatively straightforward disruption that the article should and has been protected against. However, Joseph, you are being way too trigger happy with reverting and it's not safe to rely on edit warring exemptions, if there's an issue deal with it in the proper channels, don't edit war over it even if you think you're right.

• Note that this editor has received multiple final warnings for "personal attacks, edit warring, and disrupting Misplaced Pages", including this warning, following this and this finding at Arbitration Enforcement.

"A ragged urchin, aimless and alone,

Loitered about that vacancy; a bird

Flew up to safety from his well-aimed stone:

That girls are raped, that two boys knife a third,

Were axioms to him, who’d never heard

Of any world where promises were kept,

Or one could weep because another wept."

W.H. Auden, September 1, 1939

Theobald Tiger (talk) 12:17, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

No real evidence of attempt to resolve conflict other than above mentioned user talk page comment, which clearly takes place after the last indication of edit-warring and so there is no basis that any edit-warring after the final warning has taken place. While editors can revert comments on their user talk page without responding directly to them, and that is a reasonable indicator that they have read or at least been aware of the message contained, I don't see any clear evidence that specifically indicates user talk pages qualify under WP:3RR. So, all in all, I honestly see no basis for action, other than perhaps a warning, to Theobald. However, I do see that this complaint itself is also possibly at least as problematic, because it seems to be asserting that edits made before the warning qualify as edit-warring, which is sometimes questionable. That raises potentially serious WP:CIR and/or WP:GAME concerns, and this would not be the first time that such concerns regarding the first of those and the filing party have been raised, and on that basis, if there are to be any reprimands to Theobald, I would think that Tgeairn might reasonably deserve a similar reprimand. It might also be possible that this dubiously substantiated complaint might itself qualify as a form of Harassment as per WP:HARASS. It might not be unreasonable for the reviewing editor to consider taking this matter to WP:AE for consideration there. John Carter (talk) 16:08, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

I have not violated the 3R-rule at all. Tgeairn is a COI-editor whose greatest pleasure it is to nail his adversaries unto the cross. It is striking that Tgeairn does not mention the original revert. I reverted Tgeairn's tagging of Gary Bouma. Tgeairn is a Landmark defender who tries to eliminate every notable subject that has any involvement with NRM's. Theobald Tiger (talk) 16:54, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

I also note that the material Tgeairn added after my initial comment, in this link here are at best questionably relevant to the current discussion, and I once again question the thinking which would make this matter one raised here as opposed to at the AE page, which would I think be the place most editors with a basic grasp of policies and guidelines might think to be the appropriate place to raise such concerns about the behavior of editors who have previously been involved in an AE case and in a topic area in which discretionary sanctions have been authorized.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: at "Gravitational constant", at at "Dimensionless_physical_constant", at his talk page.

Not technically a 3RR violation because it is spread over three articles, but clearly edit warring and all edits have the same content. Inorout keeps adding this (his?) fringe theory based on a not acceptable reference to those three articles, despite various warnings, a block for edit warring and overall broad consensus that the references and the content are not acceptable (everyone apart from Inorout and the IPs - and based on the behaviour they might be the same person). --mfb (talk) 15:26, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Comments:

I agree with all of the above. Inorout persists in PUSHing his inadequately sourced, FRINGE content on the above 3 sites against the consensus of 5 editors on Talk:Gravitational constant, 3 on Gravity, and 4 on Dimensionless physical constant. He doesn't participate in the Talk page discussion of his edits even though invited to. Besides Inorout the only editors supporting his edits are several IPs 217.197.137.140 77.238.218.163, which look very much like sockpuppets; one of which 37.208.33.85 has already been blocked for 3RR I don't think this guy's going to stop. --Chetvorno 16:19, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Result: Indef as a suspected sockpuppet of User:Bosnipedian. See the user's talk page for links to prior reports.

I hope this is the right place to report this - Conor Woodman has had the world's slowest edit war going on since June 2014. Yes, seriously, nearly a year. It seems to be mostly 92.108.55.19 adding content duplicated from another article, which is then reverted by various other users.

User has "issues" with non-Muslim sources and therefore repeatedly reverts well-sourced information. Requires minimum 1 week temporary block. See Talk:Muslim population growth for more details. --Peaceworld 21:00, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

In this instance peaceworld's edits are probably erroneous, because the Salafi lede states that "Salafism is the fastest growing Islamic movement in the world", not Ahmadiyya. Peaceworld's reference seems weaker and uncommon. Afwaaja (talk) 21:23, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

You are comparing news sources to a statistical reference work. Nevertheless, the statement being repeatedly reverted by the said user states "According to the World Christian Encyclopedia, the fastest-growing denomination in Islam is Ahmadiyya," which is wholly true irrespective of what other sources claim.--Peaceworld 21:34, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

• Blocked – for a period of 24 hours. We don't normally block users for a week for first-offense edit warring. Nowhere does this user say they object to non-Muslim, or Christian-authored sources. There objection is clearly that a self-proclaimed "Christian" encyclopedia is inherently biased. Of course, that isn't a valid reason to edit war over the removal of the content, which is written neutrally regardless. Will direct the editor to the proper venue to voice their concerns.
