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.

Comments: Note that this user also apparently uses User:99.162.120.212 and had 3 reverts in the same time frame with that address. I gave the user 2 warnings on his Talk page. His response was to delete the warnings, promise that he could spoof his address, and continue to edit war (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:74.194.226.71&diff=386167235&oldid=386166220). He did use the article's Talk page under both addresses. (This is my first report)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: [10]
Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on user talk page: [11] (see also discussion on my talk page [12] and the discussions with Dismas on the Db54 talk page, which were pretty fruitless, as Dismas ended up making the same revert I've made, just a few days earlier [13].
Comments:
This is pretty straightforward. Db54 repeatedly cuts-and-pastes a big block of copyrighted advertising/promotional text from the article subject's website [14] (NSFW, exact text just below flag icon), claiming on my talk page to be a member of the article subject's "inner circle." Obvious copyvio, so my reverts exempt from 3RR, to say nothing of the BLP, RS, and advertising violations and the COI issues. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 22:43, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
This is not pretty straightforward when Wolfowitz out of nowhere starts removing information based on whim and cites erroneous violations. S/He seems to have a style for making edits without warning on a number of pages. THe information had been there for some time and had been worked on so it related to the Subjects - History and an abundance and not all that are industry standards and a number of references. Furthermore, there was ABSOLUTELY NO ADVERTISING or PROMOTIONAL in any of the information as s/he is claiming. There is also no copyright violation as he claims either. He certainly had no right to suspend editing privileges. The prior references already referred to her website as does her Offical Website entry under her picture. To ensure her background was accurate what better way to have a background then right from the Living Person's mouth as part of her biography. There was no promotional nor sales nor any visit the website references. Also, it was a small subset ( not a big block as claimed) of 2 paragraphs from her own biography. What better source is there?
To quote the LIVING PERSON; "How strange the page is almost empty, looks like someone stripped it! The link to the yahoo group is wrong, and there are barely any other links. there are a million interviews and articles on avn, but they don't list any of them... what a mess!" to me in a thread on her website where I have been a member for sometime as well as keep in touch with her and her manager husband when it comes to Wikpedia.
Frankly Hullaballoo_Wolfowitz needs to be reigned in and sanctioned for his inappropriate actions. His assumption on previous discussions was misrepresented as well. Db54 (talk) 23:09, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
Blocked – for a period of 24 hours Just incase anyone is wondering, even though Hullaballoo Wolfowitz did just as much reverting, removing copyright violations is an exception to 3RR where there is no edit war. Courcelles 23:28, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

One of them, User:Red Avenged, has attempted to discuss it, but this one has not and has carried on with the war - not a technical 3RR today (23rd), but there was on 21st, and they're certainly continuing the war in an uncooperative manner.

Comments:
Nothing further; this looks like a clear 3RR violation to me, from an editor with a history of the same. While I have not edited Christine O'Donnell, I have encountered FellGleaming (talk · contribs) on other articles and so am recusing to bring this here rather than handling it myself. MastCell Talk 23:46, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
Alas - the issue of what is, and is not, "contentious" material in a WP:BLP must be examined. In this case, it appears that real BLP issues are involved, and should be sorted out on the article talk page and not here. See also [31] et seq. Collect (talk) 00:01, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
- I don't see a BLP exemption asserted in these edits, nor do I see any rational basis for such an exemption. FellGleaming's editing record on political BLPs from the other "side" is pretty poor, but regardless, this is pretty much straight-up edit-warring without any clear-cut exemptions or fig leaves. MastCell Talk 00:19, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
Blocked – for a period of 72 hours This situation is marginally related to BLP; it's mostly just about POV edit warring under the cover of edit summaries like "See talk". That is not a license to revert anyone whose edit you don't care for. Spike Wilbury (talk) 02:00, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

Difs:
The Arbitration Committee has placed this article on probation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Kosovo
Editors making disruptive edits may be banned by an administrator from this and related articles, or other reasonably related pages. All editors on this article are subject to 1RR parole per week and are required to discuss any content reversions on the article talk page. For full details, see [1]-- LONTECH Talk 17:15, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
- I wish to make the following statement in my defence, and to draw the attention of persons handling this matter to a related case. Anyone concerned with the Kosovo article will be aware that it is a very sensitive subject. To that end, Lontech has himself taken the liberty to remove unfavourable information. His timing has not violated the 1RR but his intention is clearly POV as his removals also blanked sources, this contravenes Wikipedia policy. The original author was Cinema C; following various discussions, I restored the edit but amended it to be less militant and more in line with the source itself (BBC). Lontech again removed this compromised revision again citing POV but at this point it was clear that Lontech was being disruptive; had he have known the information to be fallacious, he might have replaced the content with his "more accurate" descritpion and sources; or he might have edited my revision to reshape it. He chose the third option which was to blanket-revert, a practice only carried out when the original editor is blatantly vandalising. I contend that I am the second editor to work on this material, and there has since been a third, Enric Naval. Enric did indeed alter my revision but I see his contributions as positive and constructive and he has not removed the source and to this end, I am resigned to his revision. This surmises that I am not engaged in an edit war neither am I violating any policy. Meanwhile, Enric Naval has himself raised an issue concerning Lontech that admins may find interesting here.

I've stopped all reverting with this ip, once it became clear this wasn't just the normal spamming of this link. I'd like someone to step in and encourage the person behind the ips to discuss the manner in a civil manner. The communication from this this ip (as well as a blocked sockpuppet) have been incivil, and ignore the issues brought up on the ips talk page [53] [54] [55]. The problem may simply be the person is unaware of notices on the ip talk pages.
Obvious sockpuppetry has been going on for over three years
