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.
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.

20:11, 13 January 2023 Mr. Ollie engaged in edit warring by reverting my edit which i cited.
20:41, 13 January 2023 Mr. Ollie does the same thing while i explain the reasons of his wrongdoing
21:14, 13 January 2023 Mr. Ollie does the same thing while i explain to Mr. Ollie that edits should not be conducted and removed while citations are given unless a talk page is created by the party which disagrees first!
Therefore, i ask an admin to block Mr. Ollie for trying to spam and disorganized an article which i cited proper sources thereof.

- No violation by MrOllie. CtasACT had breached 3RR. I was going to block them, but they are already partial blocked, so I will take no further action. —C.Fred (talk) 21:35, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- Fine by me, Wikipedia has become corrupted, never have i heard in my life that Cambridge University citations would result in the block. I will precede to delete this account due to unfair Wikipedia admins, the policies are not the problem, but the people who execute them. CtasACT (talk) 21:37, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- The citations have nothing to do with the block; your behavior does. If you are unwilling to abide by the rules, thank you for leaving rather than causing more trouble. —C.Fred (talk) 21:39, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- Causing trouble by giving citations, very evil and anarchistic of you guys, NEVER IS IT ACCEPTABLE TO DUE SUCH A THING. Anyways Wikipedia is a good source, but the people contributing and admins like you are pathetically evil. CtasACT (talk) 21:41, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

MDPI was included on Jeffrey Beall's list of predatory open access publishing companies in 2014[17][18] but was removed in 2015 following a successful appeal[16][17] [...] Some journals published by MDPI have also been noted by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Norwegian Scientific Publication Register ... for lack of rigour and possible predatory practice.
The whole argument over the cited article(s) looks overblown. Neither statements likethank you for leaving rather than causing more trouble
nor the responseadmins like you are pathetically evil
are warranted because of an disagreement over the origin of Coffee (and neither for Covid or Covfefe ; in the case of Covid it's up to the investigation of the new House;).--Myosci (talk) 09:13, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

Straight 4RR vio (5RR actually) using two accounts, first the IP account (only edits are these reverts), then the newly created account, (again, only edits are these reverts).

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. The first edit is the original edit; it is not counted as a revert. And the "my bad" one is a self-revert. Plus, you did not attempt to open discussion with him.

This is the third straight 3RR violation by the user on this page in the past 1 month and he has already been blocked twice, [12], [13]. A dispute resolution is ongoing and yet to be resolved but the user interpreted it as a consensus. In any case, the reverts do not fall under any exemptions. A.Musketeer (talk) 06:03, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- Moderated discussion was ongoing at Dispute Resolution, the moderator gave me permission to insert my lede so I did so. This report is grotesque and absurd, an attempt to try and frustrate the will of the DR moderator and ensure a favourable result for the opposing editors.—AMomen88 (talk) 17:39, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- While I sympathise with you, that does not justify edit warring. Salvio giuliano 18:03, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
