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.

Edit-warring despite ongoing ANI and RFC/U:
- Edits by Arnoutf: [1] (20:51, 2 August 2010)
- 1st revert by Teeninvestor: [2]
- 1st revert by Athenean: [3]
- 2nd revert by Teeninvestor: [4]
- 1st revert by Arnoutf: [5]
- 3rd revert by Teeninvestor: [6]
- 2nd revert by Arnoutf: [7]
- 4th revert by Teeninvestor: [8] (20:13, 3 August 2010)
- Edit by Gun Powder Ma: [9]
- 5th revert by Teeninvestor: [10] (21:41, 3 August 2010)
Comment on how to read diffs:
Teeninvestor's 1st to 4th revert refer to the paragraphs containing these quotes:
- By the time of the Ming, gunpowder weapons were so ubitiqious that a battalion in the fifteenth century Chinese army had... (only slightly reworded in 4th revert)
- The Song Dynasty's official military texts described the crossbow thus...
- The use of the crossbow is also described...
His 5th revert refers to my edit, the paragraph beginning with
- However, in the conquest of China, the Mongols also adopted gunpowder weapons and thousands of Chinese infantry and naval forces into the Mongol army..

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: see ongoing ANI (started 00:38, 3 August 2010) below
Comments: Teeninvestor has breached the 3rr, although he is fully aware that his edit pattern on the article is currently subject of Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Disruptive editing and other issues during RFC/U by User:Teeninvestor. Teeninvestor's edit behaviour is also currently subject of a Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Teeninvestor, and was recently of another ANI complaint about his removal of tags. A more complete account of the dimension of the problem with the editor's behaviour is given by Outside view by User:Athenean. Gun Powder Ma (talk) 22:13, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
- GPM's portrayal of the above edits are completely fallacious. This user has been ignoring the discussion page of the article, in which I was constructively discussing issues with fellow editors 1 and 2. He also counts an addition of info as a revert 1, 2. He has misrepresented greatly the series of edits that went on here. The first three diffs were removals of POV and copyright violations which another editor (User:Arnoutf) mistakenly reinserted and reverting removal of quotes which he thought was not attributed. When I pointed this out, he acknowledged this and stopped reverting, as shown here. The fourth "revert" consists of me reintroducing material that Arnoutf objected to it in quote form, but had no objections in paragraph form; hardly a revert. The fifth "revert" is an even bigger representation, as I merely modified the quote because said editor was misrepresenting his source. This user has been disruptively forum shopping after getting negative replies by trying to discredit Robert Temple, a known sinologist, as shown here and here, after his disruptive POV edits were rejected by other editors besides myself. 1 and 2 34. This disruptive forum shopping and misrepresentation of other editors need to be stopped.Teeninvestor (talk) 23:42, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
- I endorse this report. The edit history of Military history of China (pre-1911) [11] says it all. Teeninvestor seems to display strong WP:OWN behavior. He has embarked on unilaterally re-writing the article, while at the same time taking it upon himself to police every single edit by other users. This has brought him in conflict with multiple editors, and resulted in him reaching and breaching 3RR so many times in the last few days that I have lost count. His claims that he constructively discusses things in the talkpage is disingenuous, with this [12] as a particularly egregious counterexample. He feigns consensus, then re-adds the disputed material when he thinks no one is watching, edit wars over it, and then taunts me [13], and in textbook example of psychological projection, accuses me of POV-pushing [14]. For the record, I have little interest in this article, I am mostly goaded by Teeninvestor's intrasigent, WP:OWN behavior. Athenean (talk) 02:40, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
Declined There may be larger issues here, but edit-warring does not appear to be the primary and sole concern. Further, GPM shot himself in the foot with his remarks below that demonstrate he doesn't understand the concept of edit-warring. I'm not acting upon this; please resolve the dispute here via other avenues. -- tariqabjotu 23:56, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- I am impressed. It took you three full minutes between lecturing me on the guidelines below and reviewing the full case above and writing the decline. So it took you 180s/14 provided links = ca 12s for looking into each link, provided that you wrote your decline text in 0 s. Did you actually bother to look into the case at all or is this just about making a point? Gun Powder Ma (talk) 00:52, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
GPM, I responded to both the request above and the request below around the same time more than twelve hours ago. So, I obviously noticed this one was here. I read some of it, but it was a more through and less timely case, what with links left and right.

- No, I didn't read through all or most of the links. In fact, secret's out, I almost never read threads like this. Edit-warring is a basic thing that can easily be checked in the history; I really don't care about the back story or the long-term problems, or who started it and how this guy is a nationalist or a long-term POV warrior. If it's medium-term (slow motion edit-warring over a week or two), I'm interested, and I'll see there's a discrepancy in the history and I'll check what's here. But if it's some long-term problem that requires an FBI investigation into the history of all parties with more than a dozen links, it's not appropriate for this noticeboard. And you seemed to know that; hence, why you went to WP:ANI first. That's where this issue belongs.
So, once again, declined. -- tariqabjotu 01:06, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for giving us an interesting insight into how you do things here. And I am sympathetic to your quite fitting analogy of an FBI investigation required. However, I have to say that there is no such investigation necessary, I merely tried to give more background information which was probably a mistake in hindsight.
- You say "Edit-warring is a basic thing that can easily be checked in the history". Well, we are dealing here with such a clear case: 1, 2, 3, 4, reverted within 24 h (22:29, 2 August 2010 to 20:13, 3 August 2010). Clear breach of 3rr. So why no action? Gun Powder Ma (talk) 01:45, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- So when did reverting another editor's mistaken introduction of copyright violations and POV material (which he later acknowledged and apologized for), another editor's mistaken reverts based on a misunderstanding, and reintroducing information originally contained in a quote but objected to by other editors in that format as a paragraph count as edit warring? GPM, you lack even a basic understanding of wikipedia's policies, and a basic decency, or else you wouldn't be blatantly misrepresenting diffs and lying here. The other editor has already rejected your forum shopping, stop wasting time and please go discuss the actual issues on the talk page and stop trying to abuse this edit warring board, and actually get things done.Teeninvestor (talk) 02:01, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

Gun Powder Ma (talk) 01:45, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- I am amazed at much you are telling lies in the face of the admin. Athenean and me have already gone on record above, and the third user you disingeniously 'interpret your way', Arnoutf, has also long told you the same: "Temple has none of those, so there is no reason to quote Temple". And you still wonder why you have been involved in an arbcomm case, in a RFC/U and why you are a regular guest at ANI... Gun Powder Ma (talk) 09:58, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- The quotes are from standard histories and Needham, GPM. If you even bothered to read the talk page. Yes, I have been in an ArbCom Case, so what? It was to do wikipedia a great service by restricting one of its most problematic users. I'm a regular guest at ANI? Your posts at ANI exceed mine several times (even including your forum shopping reports) and you've been blocked 4 times. Again, the pot calling the lamb black.Teeninvestor (talk) 12:56, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- @Teeninvestor. Wait a second here. You are confusing issues. Yes you took out copyvio's introduced by one of the editors, but in the same series of edits you introduced (over several edits) a whole lot of quotes. My apologies were about blanket reverting your stuff. I did not consciously reintroduce any text, I should have been more careful, but since this was the first time you deleted instead of added problematic stuff to the article, I just did not consider the possibility. That does not say I agree with the quotes, and I have argued on the talk pages repeatedly that they were/are problematic with regards to WP:MOS, WP:UNDUE and WP:NOT. Arnoutf (talk) 10:20, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

Request 2nd opinion
It's interesting to note that Tariqabjotu's just stopped to contribute when I pointed out to him that he missed a clear violation of 3rr (01:45, 5 August 2010 (UTC). From Arnoutf's post above it has also become clear that Teenivestor has misconstrued both his acts and intentions and that of other users. Therefore, I would like to hear the second opinion of another admin who is willing to spend more than a few seconds for the whole case. Gun Powder Ma (talk) 09:46, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
- No, I didn't just [stop] to contribute then. I stopped to contribute after 01:15 (UTC), and then edited a few times several hours later. What is the mysterious reason for this several-hour break in editing? It's called sleep, GPM. You may not know this, but when it's 01:45 (UTC) in August, it's 2:45am in London. -- tariqabjotu 14:53, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Stale It's been about two days since the edit war was going on. Will try to keep an eye on it, though. I have removed Daven's rollback rights, though, due to his use of them in an edit war. -- tariqabjotu 10:26, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Just curious but what is the rationale for admin inactivity in this case? I am not sure whether it has occurred to the admin that stale verdict in general actually favours the user who is more willing to revert, since it is his version which prevails, and that the other, more cautious user who deliberately restrained himself from taking things too far is actually punished for exactly his restraint. I believe the unwanted lesson from stale is that one needs to continue to revert even beyond 3rr so that the admin does not forget to take action. Pretty counter-productive this stale in that it fuels edit-warring. Gun Powder Ma (talk) 21:26, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- I'd like to challenge this verdict because at the time of reporting the edit war was still in progress but the report simply sat on the page and the war cooled down however this verdict doesn't solve anything it just creates a larger tension about the subject.Phoon (talk) 22:06, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Couldn't agree more. Stale is like waiting inactively until the house has burnt down and then pointing out that there is no need for firemen anymore. Gun Powder Ma (talk) 22:17, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Excuse me? Dave reported this, as the timestamp shows, at 8:55 this morning. It was stale when he reported it, and stale an hour and a half later when I fulfilled the request. And, no, it's not like waiting until a house a burned down. We are a bunch of volunteers; no one's life is on the line, and we don't let requests sit here just for our amusement. -- tariqabjotu 22:26, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Ok, I missed the time gap. I was under the impression that "stale" means that there was no edit-warring after the report was filed: because this rarely indicates that problems were solved meanwhile, but rather that one side sits back and awaits an admin reaction. Gun Powder Ma (talk) 22:49, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Your excused.I did not report this at 8:55 this morning (I was simply adding more evidence) I reported it a 23:08 UTC and it was answered 11 hours and 18 minutes later. I wholeheartedly agree with Gun Powder Ma and his brilliant analogy of how this case has been neglected and in a final act of disrespect labeled as stale. Its an injustice and no one should have to be treated in such a harsh and cruel manner. Phoon (talk) 22:54, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Remember that blocks are preventative, not punitive. If the edit war is no longer going on, a block won't prevent anything. Blocks aren't given to punish past behavior, only to prevent ongoing behavior. Yworo (talk) 22:58, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- No one in this report has mentioned blocks up until now. Blocks are not the only solution that can come out of this report. Besides, one needs to wait over 11 hours to actually get an admin to notice so its basically impossible at times to achieve a "Preventive" block on this noticeboard. Phoon (talk) 23:04, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Fine. Then it took 11 hours until this was addressed. But it took you 30+ hours to bring this to the noticeboard (at which point, by the way, it was -- again -- already stale). That's what happens on a volunteer project. -- tariqabjotu 23:38, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Phoon (talk) 23:04, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Yworo, there is a logical fallacy in your reasoning. Remember that in a one on one edit war, even the more moderate side will have reached at least 3 reverts at the point the other has broken 3rr. So if the admins are still unwilling to take action at this point, they put the more reasonable user at a dilemma: if he keeps by the rules and stops reverting, the edit warrior will have saved his version, and thus he and his revert-style has 'won'. But if he continues to revert to prevent that, he will commit a 3rr himself. So, admin inactivity is clearly inducing a situation in which either no action is taken at all (3/4), or against both users simultaneously (4/4 and more). This is hardly ideal and actually creates favourable conditions for the more reckless reverters. Gun Powder Ma (talk) 23:30, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- Posts like these never cease to amaze me. Your definition of "moderate side" and "reasonable user" is the one who reverts second. The one who starts the edit war is an edit warrior. The one who is so generous and honorable to defend the article, Wikipedia, and the world by continuously reverting the person who started the edit war is also an edit warrior. It doesn't matter that our gracious defender might only have three reverts, while our aggressive and stupid offender has made four. They both are equally culpable, and they both should be treated equally. The point of the 3RR and our edit-warring policies is to convey that disputes should not be resolved by continuous reverting. You, however, seem to think disputes are resolved (or, "won", as you put it) by reverting over and over. So, no, there's no logical fallacy; you just don't understand the meaning of edit warring. Please re-read WP:EW as ignorance of the rules, having been pointed to them, is no defense. -- tariqabjotu 23:53, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
- You cannot refer to my post because you didn't seem to have understood a bit. If "both are equally culpable, and they both should be treated equally", as you erroneously believe, then why should people still bother to report here, if either both will get indiscriminately a block or none? This isn't rocket science... Gun Powder Ma (talk) 00:31, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- No, I understand exactly what you said, and it's obvious your set of conceivable edit-warring situations is very narrow. The only valid cases are when one person is edit warring against multiple other users. X reverts, A reverts, X reverts, B reverts, X reverts, C reverts, X reverts, B reverts... X probably gets blocked; A, B, and C probably do not. X reverts, Y reverts, X reverts, Y reverts, X reverts, Y reverts... X and Y both probably get blocked. Y doesn't get off easy just because he happened to be second. As you see, both X and Y are engaging in the same disruptive actions -- reverting. Still, there are many editors -- you included, apparently -- who think they are absolved because they have one fewer revert than their adversary. They come here to complain about said adversary and end up getting blocked along with their opponent. As you said, it's not rocket science, and they should be capable of foreseeing that outcome. Certainly, had this request been made earlier, as I have already suggested, both Daven and Tedickey would have been blocked for the same edit warring. -- tariqabjotu 00:49, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- What a truly inefficient system, especially when I was (in this case) the editor who played by all the rules(and policies) and attempted to satisfy all of Tedickeys requests for better sources. I posted on the reliable sources board and even made an RFC on the article all of which he ignored. wow no good deed goes unpunished. Whats the point of having this noticeboard if nothing gets done? If the administrators fail to properly handle cases in a timely fashion? It may be a volunteer project but you (as an administrator) took the pledge to devote a portion of your life to the cause. So the more I tried to satisfy his needs the further he upped the ante, at which point I had to resort to reverting his edits, and he responded, I don't understand how this case is "stale" when truly the tension remains and is evident in over 100 paragraphs of dispute located on the articles talk page, the WQA and now here. So if blocking is a preventive measure then indeed maybe to prevent a further escalation of the dispute a few blocks will needed to be handed down. Phoon (talk) 02:07, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- The definition of a stale report is given in Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring/Administrator instructions#Stale reports. Though he was not blocked this time around, User:Tedickey may be sanctioned for edit warring if he continues to revert the article regarding 'largest arson claim.' Since his point has been extensively discussed with other editors, and nobody else supports his view, we expect him to follow the consensus from here on. EdJohnston (talk) 03:00, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

- I was counting the first one as a normal edit rather than a revert. Checking the geolocate on the recent history, though, I think that the similarity in edits and locations is conclusive enough to downgrade this to semi-protection. Thank you for checking this. I still think that they have shown enough interest in discussion that a block would be more punitive than preventative, but I will go request that they wait for consensus before adding any similar content. - 2/0 (cont.) 07:21, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
- Well a block Codf1977 sounds a little cynical when you have really ignored providing consensus on acedemic sources then Codf1977 undoing edits. I have provided 4 acedemic sources and 2 media sources for terms on "first" "institution" and "Oxford University" and "English speaking" to verify the edit upgrade. I have asked already 4 times to Codf1977several questions on the matter of sources to provide for the article should stay as "oldest" university to "first English speaking institution" yet Codf1977 is not a student of Oxford University or former student and has admitted never been to Oxford either in anyway to enlighten his experience to the discussion with providing some objection sources I may ask for in return. It seems more of an argument that Codf1977 likes the article more than the facts to change the words "first" "speaking" and "institution" overriding "oldest". I am yet to wait for his responses to the questions I have asked Codf1977 and he has gone silent on the matter. Shall I just wait ever 24 hours to revert rule to edit back and let Codf1977 make another complaint of me reverting edits yet he refuses to census the facts on what he specifically is rejecting with providing no acedemic sources? I am clued to Codf1977 is stirring trouble more than discussing the issue of correcting the history on Oxford University I have provided than saying nothing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.128.15.231 (talk) 20:07, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
User:Codf1977 reported by User:75.128.15.231 (talk) (Result:see previous)
I am reporting this matter on the merit of the facts from acedemic sources but user Codf1977 is undoing edits creating misleading information on the Oxford University article page. First I have made the case that the words "oldest university" to "first speaking institution" providing the fact down below. Yet according to Codf1977 Codf1977 claiming the facts which are acedemic used for education purposes is denying the facts presented, saying it is not an institution and it is not the first but the oldest.
What defines "first" to "oldest"? The facts say Oxford University is an education institution and the word university is already in the "Oxford University" or "Oxford of University" adding the sense what the facts say that is an an "institution: and the "first institution in the world to speak English". I mean what institution was before Oxford Univesity as an english speaking institution? None. I am taking the facts and using those fact to support the claim is still a "university" and it is still an "institution" and instead of "oldest" it is the "first" of its kind as an "English speaking institute". Please view acedemic sources below.
The facts about Oxford University, Oxford, England:
1. First English speaking institution - StudyEnglishToday News by M. Boyanova 2007 "Oxford University is the 1st English speaking institution":[42]
2. Oldest: [43]
3. 1st English-speaking institution: [44][45]
4. Oxford University is an education institution[46][47] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.128.15.231 (talk) 19:44, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
- <bangs head against wall> "Institution" is not synonymous with "university", "first" does not mean the same thing as "oldest", and you continue to misquote the first source. It's quite simple, really. Please read your talk page and the article talk page rather than claiming that anyone reverting your ill-informed changes is edit-warring and should be blocked, a threat you have now made to four editors including two admins. BencherliteTalk 19:50, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
- Bencherlite Codf1977
- Well what hand of experience do you have on Oxford University then? What is your knowledge about the institution? Do have anything other than arguing the issue to speak of your experience of attending Oxford University to bring to the table?
- I am rather confused? You are promoting "oldest" university instead of "first english university" or even the word "first" and your promoting "university" over "institution". What says your right?
- What level of knowledge do you have to state that your are 110% right? I would like you state to me what you state is correct, then I will ask Oxford University the same question as I have several professors will reply back. Please provide acedemic sources so I am not reading a blog or something.
- Have you have any facts that state Oxford University is not an institution? Do you have any facts that state Oxford University is not the first university or institution?
Do you have any facts that state "first English speaking"? Before disagreeing instantly, send the sources not the same on the Oxford University page but sources to your denial. I suggest you take a trip to Oxford University on one of the tour guides, you ask the guide for the tour guide books to refresh the what is Oxford University? First, Institution, University and founded when.
- When you refer oldest to first, please think about that again. First is also the same defination category as oldest. Your mis-phrasing the argument on the terms of first with Oxford. I had tour guide books that are printed in 1930, 1980, 1997 that all state Oxford University is an institution and the first of its kind to speak English, not England but in the world.

Comments:
The first edit was a few days ago, only included to show this has been going on for a bit. On the talk page there are 4 users and 2 IPs agreeing that the article should not say the Church is located in Israel with Hope&Act3! and one other user arguing (without sources) that it should. Hope&Act3! is edit warring to retain language that is both unsourced and against the views of most editors on the talk page. nableezy - 21:56, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
Comment: There's something fishy at work here with the edits against this user being made by anon. IP with less than 30 edits many of them reverts. 209.118.181.16 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) is clearly hiding his true identity and could very well be a banned/blocked editor (possibly related to the topic banned editor making this complaint). I see them making 5 reverts against established editors on the article in question while the other 2 editors are not hiding behind an IP. Hope&Act3! (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) has an almost clean block log for his 4 months here (I can't make out the 12 hour block but it seems unrelated to edit-warring). I'd suggest a block to the IP and a notice on Wikipedia:ARBPIA notifying Hope with a warning that next time he crosses the 3RR line -- even if its a sock puppet IP -- he'd be sure to be handed some time out to think about things with a nice little smudge on his block log as a sign for future edit-war violations. Just my 2 cents. JaakobouChalk Talk 23:44, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
Page protected The IP does look very much like a blocked/banned user. However, unless Hope&Act3! can present concrete evidence clearly marking it as a sock, reverting so vigorously is not acceptable (and, to be clear, if there's concrete proof of sockpuppetry, one should use one of the noticeboards to bring the matter to an admin's attention). So, this should have resulted in a block. However, I think there are a number of users from a couple angles reverting on this article, so I think protection is the best route right now.

No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the 3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria. -FASTILY (TALK) 06:34, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Massive revert-warring on several pages combined with incivil edit summaries. Please just check the obvious situation in the article histories. Note: this is a cross-posting of a report I've also filed for enforcement at WP:AE#41.132.* to get a more permanent solution under WP:DIGWUREN, but I'm filing here too because the response time at AE is too slow to stop the revert war. For more detail please see the AE report. Fut.Perf. ☼ 16:56, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
Blocked – for a period of 24 hours AE can do what it wants, but we have a clear 3RR violation going on here. If he IP-hops, the articles will be semi-protected until AE decides what to do. Courcelles 17:14, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

I made several efforts to resolve disagreements and avoid edit-wars; see diffs:
- Diff [66] Third Opinion concurring with the objections I've repeatedly enumerated on the talk page and affirming that they should be deleted, which I proceeded to do.
- Diff [67] My comment on user's talk page
- Diff [68] My reply to user's latest comment on my talk page
Repeated efforts to negotiate type of content notable enough for historical bios on talk page ignored or rejected. User defends his input and reverts, immediately or gradually, any changes I make, and won't dialogue on talk page unless his edits have been reverted -- then he defends, but won't compromise. He is now ignoring both my pleas for compromise and the Third Opinion which agreed with me entirely that some of his input is too trivial to be included in Wikipedia. He dismissed my 3RR warning with mockery. FactStraight (talk) 21:48, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
