Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring

Welcome to the edit warring noticeboard
This page is for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule. See this guide for instructions on creating diffs for this report. If you see that a user may be about to violate the three-revert rule, consider warning them by placing {{subst:uw-3rr}} on their user talk page. 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.

Comments:

This user currently only has 1 revert on this round, but has a long history of edit warring on Glücksgas Stadium and Talk:Glücksgas Stadium. he adds the same machine-translated, unsourced content over and over, then engages in a revert war without any discussion when his edits are changed in any way. He also randomly deletes items on the Talk page. He has been blocked multiple times for this behavior in the past, so I am reporting it again in the hopes of nipping this in the bud.

You are dealing with a sock of User:Fox53, aka Kay Körner, who keeps reappearing uner differnt user accounts from time to time, gets blocked and reappears again after a break. He tends to edit the same group of pages, associated with East Germany, especially the SV Dynamo. Most of the times nowadays he behaves himself, compare to the old times at least. If he gets blocked on this account he will just come back on another. Calistemon (talk) 09:18, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Comments:

The editor has a history of blanking astrology-related content, proposing that the subject has no authorities and arguing that “Deletion is the best option when it is reasonable to expect that adequate sourcing will never be found”. [1]

Other editors have responded that the sources used are not problematic in reporting what astrologers or those who write about the subject believe. [2]

He refuses to allow attempts to improve content in the section on the mythology on Scorpio (astrology), and is constantly reverting information that is well known, widely reported and reliably sourced. His edits leave the page with only a brief inclusion of poor quality content, which is disputed for its accuracy and lacks reliable references.

The editor has been warned that his attitude is antagonistic and has a history of causing offense to other editors working on pages related to astrology, by his insistence that the subject is “complete and utter fraudulent bullshit” and its sources are as worthless as “used-ass-wipe”.

He has been asked to specify what sources he objects to and why, but refuses to do this, while claiming in his edit summaries that other editors should ‘see talk’. Robert Currey talk 08:33, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I appear to have lost count. Changes were made to two sections of the article, and I didn't realize the latter also reverts reverted material that I had already reverted in my first reversion. The latter three reverts were made in response to an ip hopper that reverted 5 times with no discussion on talk page. I reverted three times and stopped, thinking that I had reached my limit at that point.

FWIW, this is my first time I've been brought to #RRN. I'm very careful about not exceeding 3RR. I offer a voluntary self-ban from the article for the period of a week.

As to the charge that I have not discussed this on the talk page, there is a discussion about this section on progress on talk page concerning sourcing and other issues, and a clear consensus that the section would not be added until adequately sourced. I spent a good bit of my own time finding additional sources and posted them in that discussion.

As for calling astrology "bullshit", the language was perhaps a bit colorful, but accuarate and does not cross the civility boundary in my opinion. No personal attacks were made. Nevertheless, I stopped using colorful language when I was asked to by the editors involved a week ago. Dominus Vobisdu (talk) 10:10, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

The sudden appearance of several reverting anons on that page is disturbing. Semi? William M. Connolley (talk) 10:28, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

A new editor, who created a page for a subject that already has an existing article Bengali Brahmins. Another editor than myself redirected their preferred name, full of unorthodox capitalizations to say the least, and informed them at their talk. The offending editor worked at the actual article for a bit, until it became clear that they couldn't use their alternate spelling in the article[23]. User has yet to acknowledge a talkpage or edit summary message and are edit warring to keep the duplicate article with their preferred naming. Heiro 20:34, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Their alternate spelling seems to be to push this religiously based Facebook page or group, which seems to be the only use of this spelling (besides us now) according to Google. Heiro 20:47, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Surely this is as clear as it needs to be -- 5 6 separate reverts in the space of four and a half hours. —Nomoskedasticity (talk) 20:05, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

(ec)Time of warning to editor (as prescribed)? Discussions on article talk page concerning the material (which seem quite notable by their absence)? Absent such, and considering that there are BLP issues involved, I fear that the evidence is less than compelling that sanctions are needed. Cheers. Collect (talk) 20:16, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Are you suggesting Rob was unaware that he was edit-warring? I held off when it was only 4 reverts -- but by the time it's 5 6 it's not plausible that his "finger slipped". Oh, and the "BLP issues" is a canard (look it up) -- not even Rob is claiming it. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 20:20, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

And now that there is an additional revert after this report was filed, surely the question of a warning is moot. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 20:37, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

There are no "BLP issues involved" here, since the material itself is unchanged, merely re-organized. Please review the actual changes. Jayjg ^(talk) 21:03, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

• - reply - This is a tag teaming report. This user reporting has made three edits today - one to revert against me - one to make this report and one to tell me about it. Another of the tag teamers - User:Plot spoilers never having any interest or edits at all to Ed Miliband his edit history clearly shows he is a tag team reverter. I have repeatedly, to no avail requested talkpage discussion but none of them have posted a single post - the content that User:Jayjg is desirous of altering was discussed over length and its totally normal to request WP:BRD on the talkpage. With the lack of discussion - I requested full protection on RFPP but it as yet was not actioned. I am the only person that worked to raise the Ed Miliband article to GA status - here is my report at RFPP - full protect request. Here is the Ed Miliband talkpage history, as you will see not a single one of them has posted there. Off2riorob (talk) 20:13, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

• This seems to be a persistent behavioral pattern; edit-war with several editors and accuse them of "tag-teaming" - the fact that my Talk: page is watched by over 540 editors never seems to occur to him. The most recent time this happened (a week ago - Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/3RRArchive172#User:Off2riorob reported by User:Biosketch .28Result: No action.29, Off2riorob avoided sanction by reverting himself, but he's refused to do so this time. He's obviously familiar with WP:3RR - he's been reported at AN3RR (or reported others) dozens of times. It's not even the first time he's been reported by this editor; see Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/3RRArchive134#User:Off2riorob reported by Nomoskedasticity (talk) (Result: Will not edit the article for a week), where Off2riorob avoided sanctioned by promising not to edit the article in question for a week, and at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/3RRArchive158#User:Off2riorob reported by Nomoskedasticity (Result: Semi). He's also tried to get the current article permanently protected (after reverting again, of course). He has no specific reason for reverting, other than the claim that the WP:BRD essay gives him a "right" to do so. He claims to "have repeatedly, to no avail requested talkpage discussion" but has quite notably refused to initiate such a discussion himself, despite being explicitly asked on his User talk: page to do so. He's also reverted under the claim that the matter is "Under discussion - on the talk page", despite there obviously being no such discussion on the Talk: page. He's even using Twinkle to revert. I don't know what will convince him to stop edit-warring. Jayjg ^(talk) 20:40, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Jay, if someone was to define your behaviour in terms of your ARBCOM sanctions and called it "a persistent behavioural pattern", how would you feel? Yours isn't and neither is Robs. Clearly he's going through a tough time, how about you lay off?101.118.18.102 (talk) 11:51, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

If someone wants to change an article, it is for them to explain why, if reverted. Given the lengthy previous discussions on this issue, all involved should be aware of the need for dialogue - this inappropriate tag-teaming seems more harmful to Wikipedia in the long run than a single violation of WP:3RR. Sadly though, some contributors clearly think pushing their agendas more important than Wikipedia content. AndyTheGrump (talk) 21:10, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

(ec) 6RR violations, reliance on an essay to claim a "right" to revert uncontroversial copyedits without any rationale whatsoever, and false accusations of "tag-teaming" and "pushing an agenda", are far more "harmful to Wikipedia in the long run" than any corrective action meted out to Off2riorob here. The last issue of the false accusations also applies directly to you, Andy - and please don't use my pointing that out as an excuse to call editors here "idiots" or tell them to go fuck themselves. Jayjg ^(talk) 00:00, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for confirming once again how committed you are to pursuing your agenda, and how little concern you have for the actual issues here. Now explain to me where I was wrong to state that the correct response to a reverted edit is talk-page dialogue, initiated by the person wishing to make the change - or are we supposed to respond without knowing why they are proposing the change in the first place? AndyTheGrump (talk) 00:26, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Andy, this is the WP:AN/3RR board. The "actual issues here" are that Off2riorob reverted six times, and the only rationale he gave was "it's my right to do so, per WP:BRD". If you want to discuss other issues, please do so in the relevant forum. Jayjg ^(talk) 02:41, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

And your links to my past comments (both of which I'm fully prepared to defend, BTW, given the context) were actually relevant, were they? And the point I made about who needs to start a dialogue wasn't? Yeah, right... AndyTheGrump (talk) 03:47, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

I recently experienced a tag-team-like attack on my edits from Off2riorob and Collect at Matt Drudge and associated BLPN and ANI kerfuffles. Strangely enough, they seem to be showing mutual support on this page too.  Jabbsworth  23:46, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

And you think your post at BLP/N is going to get you points here" To wit:

[Gewn Gale? She was blocked many, many times before herself, and was even restricted by ArbCom. To use Jimbo's term, Gwen has verified that she has a poisonous personality. You'll note that she quickly unblocked me too, and I have never contravened BLP again. And this Herman Cain edit hardly violates BLP, from my reading.

The only problem is absolutely no one backed your "reading" of WP:BLP at the BLP/N noticeboard. Wikipedia:BLPN#Matt_Drudge. Not just O2RR and I - but also Nomoskedasticity (hardly a tag team with O2RR!), the other person in the present case. Cheers. Collect (talk) 00:06, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Incorrect. Several editors opined that the material should be boiled down to "a careful, well-sourced sentence" because of weight issues. As usual, you seem to miss the point.  Jabbsworth  00:55, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Admin: I'm not trying to make excuses for myself, but I would ask that you also look at Yworo's reverts on the same page. He imposes his interpretation of "personal attacks" (even though he has made several of them himself today), and claims that he is allowed to repeatedly strike my comments on a talk page. In fact, I won't be surprised if he removes my comments I am making right now. If I'm guilty of edit warring, he is equally guilty. And that's not to mention his history of incivility to IPs and newly registered editors. Thanks. 174.99.127.20 (talk) 22:45, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Striking of personal attacks is explicitly allowed. You were informed of this but did not read up on it. You're clearly in the wrong here. Yworo (talk) 22:50, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

First, they were not personal attacks. I was simply responding to your own false accusations and personal attacks on me on a page in which I am allowed to defend myself. Secondly, you reverted as much or more than I did. Both of us (and that includes you, Yworo) need to leave things alone and let an admin decide this. 174.99.127.20 (talk) 22:53, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Nope, you reverted four times on two different pages one page and five times on another. I have not reverted four times on any page. Yworo (talk) Yworo (talk) 23:06, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Edit comments in reverts above
Comments:

• This editor seems unwilling to discuss this edit. He received two WP:3RR warnings on his talk page, both of which were reverted without comment. Even after I provided the link to the (extensive) consensus discussion, he continued to revert. Worryingly, he also chided a newbie for changing series to season on the article List of Top Gear episodes, referring to the edits as vandalism. This is a young editor who assumes what's done now is what's always been done, hasn't taken the care to do his homework, and appears unwilling to work within the system.

• Page protected I agree with the assessment but I think it's wiser for now to protect the page. I also restored the pre-editwar version, so that if the editor is really interested in working with others, they will be forced to do so on the talk page. If they still wish to continue edit-warring afterwards, please re-report them here. Regards SoWhy 12:17, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

I set up auto archiving as there are sections on the talk page at least one year old, I have no idea as to why TopGun has edit warred the days for archiving and when asked he says 5 days is not enough time for a discussion to finish? This is the most idiotic thing I have seen since my short time on this godforsaken website.
