    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 {{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.


    Violations

    Please place new reports at the BOTTOM. If you do not see your report, you can search the archives for it.


    The above user was involved in a edit war quite some time ago apparently. The user has started adding material to For Life (Isis Gee song) falsifying the songs position in the eurovision song contest. The song came JOINT LAST and is listed as such. The user continues to add that it came second last which is incorrect as it is listed in alphabetical order as last place.

    The user has been warned about adding the same information in the past but is still doing it.

    From the talk page it looks like the user was blocked for this same naughtiness in July.

    In order to stop an edit war please block the above user to leave the page as JOINT LAST.

    Now the same user is using the IP address 84.81.151.103 to delete major parts of the article. There is not much doubt that it is still the same person as can be seen in the discussion on the article's talk page. He insists that his version, which is very much lacking WP:NPOV has to be kept or the page will be "blanked". For violating NPOV see also comment by user Themfromspace here.

EdJohnston (talk) 22:28, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    I hope so, too. This editor or his apparent sockpuppet just told me on my talk page that he will continue to delete this material unless he is allowed to insert his controversial BLP information. So I told him again that he first has to discuss the issue on the article's talk page and try to reach a consensus. Fingers crossed that he will act accordingly this time. At least he does not add the controversial material at the moment. (Jamesbeat (talk) 22:45, 24 August 2008 (UTC))[reply]

    And, as icing on the cake,

    Anyone that doubts that the IP is a sock should look at the edit histories of the two accounts, especially the fascination with the Harvard Extension School.


    This isn't a widespread edit war, it's limited to one editor that doesn't seem to understand what goes in a lead. Based on the sockpuppeting, I think both the named account and 128.103.142.23 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) need a block.

    • Diff of 3RR warning: 14.10 August 25 As the user is a sock-puppet of banned troll MagdelenaDiArco, he is very well aware of the rules.
    Firstly, can you pleast stop using personal attackos. Secondly, no, all of those were not "reverts", since if you actually checked the diffs, you would see I was not simply restoring the same version, but trying to add more sources each time. Therefore, it is not a break of the rule. 78.149.202.191 (talk) 14:00, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    Seems to be more edit-warring at Maltese language. I am a neutral observer and can't really comment on the issues, but something seems to be going wrong with the editing process here. — Alan 15:08, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Alan is right, the same user is also edit warring extensively on Maltese language, with over 10 edits today. Yes, the user makes cosmetic changes when reverting, but the main message is still there, being reverted all the time. Please note that the reported user most likely is the same as the IP who posted the lie above about "the article now being stabilized". Both IPs have performed exactly the same reversions, and using another to post false comments to help the account being reported is an old trick used by MagdelenaDiArco, making me even more convinced that we are dealing with multiple sock-puppets. JdeJ (talk) 16:12, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Not sure why I bothered, but I did post a block warning after 15 reverts on Maltese language. I will block the IP myself if this continues. kwami (talk) 19:58, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    All dates are August 25. He since even replied to the 3RR warning given to him and continued to revert regardless. Only 4 reverts were listed in the report although he did a lot more by the definition "undoing the actions of another editor" on the same article within 24 hours. Hobartimus (talk) 18:58, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    Actually, he made five reverts. I recommended this user to revert himself back, which would help him to avoid sanctions (he seems to be a newcomer). Unfortunately, he interpreted my recommendation as a "threat" and apparently made 5th revert to prove his point.Biophys (talk) 19:50, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • This isn't strictly 4 reverts in 24 hours but the spirit is what matters. This is the same content and 5 reverts of it, despite discussion on the talk page. Subject is clearly aware of the 3RR and seems to be intending to skirt it deliberately. His response to my 3RR warning above wasn't really civil but also gave me the distinct impression he was intending to push the content reversion rules to the limit.

    User first edited as IP address in same dynamic range to repeatedly insert non-consensus change. After reversions by various editors, user created an account, TimWhiskas, to try to evade the 3RR violation, and continued to edit war. Moreover, edit comments contain taunts about trying to get other users to 3RR first (presumably because we wouldn't notice the user is the IP address).

    Comment: I added information in italics to the above report. The first, 2nd and 4th revert remove the word "account" and resplace it with "theory". The 3rd revert is arguably a revert because it removes the phrase "led to the collapse of the Twin Towers", although it replaces it with the similar phrase "the collapse of both Twin Towers was caused by" earlier in the sentence. VegitaU did 3 reverts during the same time period. Coppertwig (talk) 02:06, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    I suspect that a fourth revert was by the same ANON given the language used in the explanation found here, but I cannot be absolutely positive; the area from where the edit generates is the same, but not an identical computer. The ANON as been warned on their discussion page and in the reverts of their edits in the article. If the language were not so obviously POV, I would not have reported it. --Storm Rider (talk) 02:03, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    6 important details.

    1. This user was blocked from editing for 48 hours for edit warring 5 days ago. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=block&page=User%3AMelonbarmonster2

    2. The reverts are not exactly the same, one is changing text, one is removal of a section - but all 4 edits are reverts.

    3. The first edit is a revert, it is the removal of a section that has been discussed in the past and the editor in question was involved in the discussion, while using his previous ID.

    quote "In the context of the English Wikipedia three revert rule, a revert is defined more broadly as the undoing of another editor's work by returning any part of a page to an older version." The first edit was reverting the article to the version that had been in existence due to consensus for a long time, the editor was well aware of the consensus, was involved in the discussion, and just because the revert is months after consensus was achieved does not make it anything other than a revert.

    4. Although this is a new(ish) account (that has 1 edit warring block already) the user was previously using another account which was blocked on more than one occasion, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=block&page=User%3AMelonbarmonster so the editor is well aware of 3RR

    5. even if the editor had made only 3 reverts, and not 4, the fact that they were blocked for edit warring 5 days ago, should be enough to show that the actions on the Kimchi article are more than deserving of another block.

    6. In the middle of the reverts on the article in question, the above editor took time to send a message to the talk page of the editor he was edit warring with, stating among other things "Please stop revert warring. If you continue to revert I will take formal courses of action." after leaving this message he went back to the article and continued with his reverts. This is borderline gaming, and shows a total disregard for the wikipedia rules that relate to reverts.
