Collectonian has shown an excessive use of the revert "tool" without engaging in discussion on the talk page, only responding to a challenge on her own talk page. Edit summaries were somewhat dismissive. No attempt at compromise (for example she might have allowed one mention of "flopped" especially since she admits its validity [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ACollectonian&diff=235760634&oldid=235757638| here].

Welcome to the edit warring noticeboard | ||
---|---|---|
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
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.
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.

This particular editor has a long history of edit warring. Earlier today, he started doing it on Baba. He stopped after I distributed a 3RR warning. Then targeted Saiyuki and, despite our past discussion on its talk page, he kept reverting until breaking 3RR. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 21:01, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- Query Is this still in force? CIreland (talk) 21:34, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- Of course not. I recently took my name off that contract [6]. Don't know if Abtract did the same, but the fact that he is still hounding me remains. All I asked for was a simple talk, but he can't even do that correctly. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 21:44, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Stale I would have blocked both editors for 48 hours for edit-warring but this has gone stale due to not being handled since my query above. I see JHunterJ (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) has left notes on the talk pages of both editors; that will have to suffice. I could speculate on why so few admins are prepared to deal with this kind of thing but to do so would not provide a solution. CIreland (talk) 16:44, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Please note that the section on Ethnography includes a small paragraph on "Amerindian contribution in the Argentine population", citing two genetic studies. The inclusion or exclusion of this paragraph has been extensively debated, and the consensus was to keep it. He was asked to stop reverting and to debate.

- This user has reverted the page 4 additional times, and has been reverted by two other users. Why hasn't this issue been addressed? If this recourse to report 3RR is not working, please advise on any additional place to report this type of unacceptable behavior. --the Dúnadan 15:16, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- You're right, my issue wasn't taken care of either. Both of our reports were made accordingly so I'm wondering why no sysops have taken action. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 16:15, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
Blocked for 12 hours. Would have been 24 but this report was late being dealt with. CIreland (talk) 16:34, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Mcelite reported by All Hallow's Wraith (Result:Both blocked)

- 4th revert: 18:17, 30 August 2008
- User:Mcelite has spent most of their time at Wikipedia adding "is of Native American descent" and the "Native American" categories to as many pages on African-Americans as they can seemingly find. I don't know whether the information is true or not, but it is never properly sourced. Sometimes Mcelite adds it without any sources at all (i.e. the article in question, Joanna Hayes - [23], stating in their reverts "find a source or remove (every cat.) that isn't supported", "biased", "be helpful and fin[d] one then"), and sometimes citing IMDB biographies and trivia that were written by unknowns (and many of which were similarly amended to say "of African American and Native American" descent by the same IMDB user, freemca, who is almost certainly Mcelite themselves). When adding these IMDB references, Mcelite usually titles the reference "Amazon.com" (as if that would be a reliable biographical source) and states in her edit summaries things like "printed by Amazon. with credited writer", when of course, the reference is to the IMDB. Sometimes they cite one of seemingly millions of random celebrity websites that get their trivia from the IMDB or Wikipedia and never credit writers or sources, i.e. "Celebrity Index" here. Sometimes they give misleading edit summaries, like "it's been cleared" or "that's common knowledge" [24]. User:98.206.111.54 (contributions) is almost certainly a sockpuppet, and indeed Mcelite has been blocked for sockpuppetry before, as well as for 3rr, a personal attack and "Repeatedly inserting uncited information that contradicts article" (block log). They've certainly been warned about adding reliable sources, i.e. [25]. Anyway, Mcelite violated 3rr again on Joanna Hayes, continually reverted the "Native American" categories back into the article without any indication of a source. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 18:37, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- Comment: Mcelite has violated 3RR in my opinion, doing 4 reverts in a 24-hour period. However, in the past few days it's been only these two users editing the article. All Hallow's Wraith has done 3 reverts in 24 hours, 5 reverts in 48 hours. There is no discussion on the article talk page. I suggest putting arguments there to support your edits, referring to policies and guidelines such as for example general categorization guidelines points 7 and 8 in particular; Wikipedia:Categorization of people; Wikipedia:Naming conventions (categories)#Categorization of people and Wikipedia:Verifiability, etc. You may also find it useful to use dispute resolution such as third opinion.

Mcelite reporting All Hallow's Wraith
All Hallow's Wraith is not being helpful. I've been trying hard to find reliable sources for numerous articles and it's been extremely hard. One source I did find was completely legit and useable. An expert clearly talking about people that clearly have Native American traits not African nor European. All Hallow's Wraith just removing it saying it's opinionated when this is an expert clearing things up. Also he will only remove Native American categories, and will not remove African American or other categories that are not sourced either. Then he has the nerve to say well the source doesn't support this and that when if it doesn't apply to native heritage than it shouldn't apply to African heritage either. I added the AFrican American categories and the Native American categories for LL Cool J. He removes only the Native American categories so I said why are u doing this and not removing the other categories since he obviously has a problem with them. He doesn't even try to help find sources stating people having other heritage. Aaliyah is very well known to have both African American and Native American heritage. However, it's been difficult to find that information from quote "a reliable source". Also i'm not socketpuppeter he's guessing.Mcelite (talk) 18:47, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- The reliable source Mcelite is talking about is a writer who says that "You can see" the "Native American features",[26] which results in Mcelite's Wikipedia edit stating "is of both African American and Native American descent".[27] Turning the speculation in that reference into fact was already discussed with Mcelite by another editor ([28]), a comment Mcelite promptly removed from their talk page.[29] This page (LL Cool J) is in fact another 3rr violation, 20:58, 29 August 2008, 07:29, 30 August 2008, 18:07, 30 August 2008, 18:22, 30 August 2008). Oh, and as for the sockpuppet, 98.206.111.54 they would appear to have the same penchant for adding IMDB references that were titled "Amazon.com" [30]. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 19:02, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
That person is an expert one of the main complaints on an article that is currently being worked on. The expert clearly states that he has features that are Native American clearly. You can't get those traits mixing African American and Caucasian together. It's so simple and All Hallow's is making this a big fight. He has added things were people have called someone African American and the person didn't call themselves AFrican American the interviewer did which isn't better than an expert that works on the subject consistently pointing out features that are Native American. Therefore if that source has to be removed than I say All Hallow mush remove information from a article which the person herself doesn't state she is African American but the interviewer does. That's like me interviewing James Earl Jones saying the African American actor when he is of African American, Native American, and Irish descent. Also IMDB is not independent they are owned by Amazon therefore they fall under Amazon's copyright.Mcelite (talk) 19:03, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Edit history is a mess due to relentless reverting day after day after day. Edit warring has been going on since the 25th of August. – Shannon Rose (talk) 20:54, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- Comment: The 3RR warning is after the last revert. Walterelyon is a new user (editing since Aug. 25). The diffs span more than 24 hours, (the first 4 on Aug. 28 and the last 2 on Aug. 30) and the 4th diff is by a different user, so no 3RR violation can be established using only these diffs. The "previous version reverted to" you've supplied is simply the version just before the first diff. You should provide a previous version that contains the same material being reverted to, in order to establish that they're reverts rather than new edits. You may need to supply a different "previous version reverted to" for different reverts if different material is being reverted. You should state the time of each diff and the time of the "previous version reverted to". Walterelyon has been participating in talk page discussion; I encourage Shannon Rose to also participate in that discussion rather than reverting without explanation.

Okay, this guy has been obstinate about reverting to a subject that is irrelevent to the article (stores charging $2 for the Spore Creature Creator. I've told him over and over that it doesn't belong; for instance, GameStop and Amazon's deals were not used because they're not relevent, either. He's created a username and has just been a general NUISANCE, and it's tiring. I warned him, he does a tit-for-tat and decides to warn me on my talk page. He's got loads of attitude and mod DMacks had said he'd protect the page IF this continues, but I'm not sure protection works anymore.
He has been obstinate and I finally reported him - which of course he tit-for-tatted and reported me, despite the fact I've already told him to take it up in the Development of Spore talk page. Then he tried to bargain his Spore (2008 video game) editing in exchange for Development of Spore (see Spore (2008 video game) talk page. Huh?

- Diff of 3RR warning: User has been previously blocked for 3RR, and is ipso facto cognizant of the violation.
User is a single purpose account whose self-avowed purpose is to prevent physical great pain and sexual harm which he believes is caused by circumcision. The user's edits show a directed and concentrated focus on adding POV based edits to Circumcision and related articles. In the 40+ pages of archives of the talk page, consensus has been shown to be against this user on a regular basis. Regardless the user continues to try and insert improper, undue-weight kinds of edits to further his point of view and use wikipedia as a soapbox. The user's history of incivility is also problematic. An RfC/topic ban may be called for, but certainly I believe a block is needed to prevent further impropriety to the circumcision article. I would apply it myself, but having been recently incvolved with this user, I feel it more appropriate that other eyes investigate. -- Avi (talk) 19:35, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Two different accounts with obvious socking going on. Sock report pending, but disruptive editing continuesTraditional unionist (talk) 14:38, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
- Comment: Even if no sockpuppetry were involved, Berby has violated 3RR. (non-admin opinion.) Ovlem, Berby and MiddleEastlands are deleting the words "the Republic of" before "Ireland". The revert by MiddleEastlands was the first edit on that account. Four editors have been reverting in the other direction; Mooretwin may have done 4 reverts in 24 hours but perhaps this is excusable given the sockpuppetry; the others did only 1 or 2 reverts each. Ovlem has now been blocked by Jza84 for 48 hours for 3RR violation. I've added two reverts and other information in italics to the above report. Coppertwig (talk) 15:54, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

I am almost embarrassed to call attention to such an inconsequential "dispute" as this (disagreement over a date), but despite all advice and warnings this editor insist on constant reverts without edit summary or discussion, in several articles, over totally unimportant factoids. The bulk of his recent edits actually involve this article and List of One Life to Live cast members (also fraught with, in my opinion, bad-faith reverts). Nearly all of the activity in these articles lately has been back-and-forth edits like this. I do not even know who is "correct," and another editor is usually involved, but Onelifefreak2007 seems to be the one not acting in good faith. I'm not an expert with the rules, but I certainly can recognize inappropriate behavior, language and attitude. — TAnthonyTalk 23:46, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

- This is regarding the simple BOLDING of America in the lead of the article of the same name (Americas), something which is prevalent in Wikipedia. Deor points me to the Manual of Style as a reason not to do it, but it doesn't support his position and then said user doesn't clarify, and reverts as well.

Collectonian has shown an excessive use of the revert "tool" without engaging in discussion on the talk page, only responding to a challenge on her own talk page. Edit summaries were somewhat dismissive. No attempt at compromise (for example she might have allowed one mention of "flopped" especially since she admits its validity here.
