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 You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.
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.

Previous version reverted to: [diff preferred, link permitted]
The issue here is edit warring and attempts to control the content of the article using "scorched earth policies", through the deletion of mainstream material in favor of minority opinions.
I attempted to add the following "colored text" - I am correcting a typo of the addition in the link below -
Kenosis and another editor called SaltyBoatr are acting in concert to delete the new material and control the article content. Per his talk page SaltyBoatr seems to keep a constant low level "edit war" going with other editors which at times boils over into 3RR violations.
revert by SaltyBoatr
I understand that the above may not meet the requirements of 3RR or "edit war" but it frankly disgusts me to find that a dissenting report to the US Constitution Ratification Convention of Pennsylvania published by the 23 dissenters to that ratification is now referenced as the "ramblings of a single embittered eccentric" due to the actions of this duo.
Adding what looks like evidence that Kenosis and SaltyBoatr are the same person - if so - this more then meets the requirements of a 3RR violation and editing under multile ID's is a violation in and of itself. Below is a message left for Kenosis left by myself and I find SaltyBoatr responding to it as if he is Kenosis. Currently Kenosis/SaltyBoatr has filled in the gap between my question to Knosis ID and the response by SaltyBoatr ID with intent to hide the connection. He probably noticed he responded under the wrong ID.
What is this source? Who wrote it? It looks like a hodgepodge of blurbs about antifederalists in PA pulled from somewhere, but I'd be interested to know by whom and from where this stuff was culled. As to the article text w.r.t. the Pennsylvania minority, presently it reads as follows:
"Another non-military usage of the phrase is found in a one-man Pennsylvania "minority report" published after the ratifying convention [cited to Uviller and Merkel who in turn cite to other RSs, with selected quotation from the "minority report"]."
At least until this discrepancy is sorted out, I would advocate changing the text of that passage to something like:
" Another non-military usage of the phrase is found in a Pennsylvania anti-federalist "minority report" published after the state's constitutional convention: [followed by selected quotation from the "minority report"]
Just to be cautious here, I'd recommend a citation to Uviller and Merkel, and another WP:RS representative of the position that the minority consisted of, what was it?, twenty-something participants/signers, whether they were in fact part of the convention or not. ... Kenosis (talk) 15:15, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
Aren't you capable of clicking on a link and LOOKING?
I will be deleting all Uviller and Merker material once this article is unprotected as they engage in HISTORICAL REVISIONISM - forbidden by wiki policies - and SLANDER - also forbidden by wikipedia policies.96.237.123.191 (talk) 15:30, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
I am capable of looking, and I looked. You are using primary sources, and that isn't allowed per policy WP:NOR. We must use reliable third party published sources. SaltyBoatr (talk) 15:36, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
Per his talk page SaltyBoatd has engaged in constant low level edit wars for years and been punished a number of times. If he is now using multiple ID's (and it looks like he is) to evade edit war and 3RR policies he should be permanently banned.96.237.123.191 (talk) 17:01, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
For ease of reference
Question to Kenosis - Aren't you capable of clicking on a link and LOOKING?
Responded to by SaltyBoatr - I am capable of looking, and I looked.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [10]
(Note: This is the section in Tambayan Philippines. No discussion was available in article talk page itself-it was all edit war)
Comments:Lambanog's behaviour in dealing with me, JL 09, Sky Harbor, GraYoshi2x, and Howard The Duck have been nothing short of abrasive. User has been slapped with three tpv warnings and a 3rr but insists on pruning the talk page in the name of clarity but is actually destroying the order of the threads. User's line of reasoning falls along the area of "I didn't do anything wrong, try pointing out where you think I did go wrong" as if he expects to be spoonfed. User has been advised to simply archive the comments as many of them are over two years old, but has refused to listen. All of his edits since 09:13 20 October have been focused on the article talk page. I recommend a temporary block for him to take a cool-off period. At the same time, restore the talk page prior to his wholesale editing.
--Eaglestorm (talk) 18:46, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
Lambanog's Response:
- I am relatively new here so am somewhat surprised after reading the relevant pages just now at the precipitant action to block me. I was only made aware of this 3RR business slightly before Eaglestorm's just initiated action and had to look up the subject. In my defense I will note a number of things:
- From my perspective this all happened pretty fast. Looking at the timestamps it seems that in my ignorance I may have reverted the page in question enough times to trigger the edit war condition before I was warned of the consequences of doing so. Last revision I see doing is at 13:52, 20 October 2009. 1 The serious warnings regarding 3RR I received came later at around 14:55, 20 October 2009 and 15:16, 20 October 2009. I was in dialogue with those disagreeing with me from right after I first saw the first warning. 2 3 While there is no discussion on the article talk page itself, I was invited by JL 09 on my user page to participate in the discussion at Tambayan Philippines so that is where, in good faith, I attempted to discuss the issues raised against my edit. I feel if the article talk page was the appropriate place to discuss the issue I should have been invited there. Criticizing me for not discussing the issue there as Eaglestorm does in the above complaint is disingenuous. This rush to take action to block me and the reasons given for it therefore strike me as premature and honestly a bit annoying since I wasn't even informed it was initiated and I had to find this page on my own, but since it has been started already I would welcome a conclusive adjudication. Note the discussion at Tambayan Philippines had been archived and effectively closed by Eaglestorm leaving no alternative active established venue to discuss and possibly resolve the issue.
- I did not violate the guidelines for which I was initially accused. It has been implied that I've changed someone's words to mean something they didn't originally mean. False, I have done no such thing. I have reformatted the talk page because it was messy and so as to improve clarity but I did not alter anyone's posts with the intent to change meaning and do not believe I have done so. I have requested the complainants to show where I have done so and have not received a reply. In the discussion at Tambayan Philippines, Sky Harbor cited a section of WP:TPO that allows me to make such changes that I remember reading previously. I took that as support for my position. Those accusing me of improper conduct despite apparently being active longer do not appear to know the guidelines. Can I be faulted for thinking I had the liberty to make such changes when the guidelines indicate I can? Be bold it says more than once in those help pages. So I have been. Apparently this is what it gets you.
- I have been recommended for blocking because I supposedly reformatted the talk pages improperly, not showing due respect to users comments, and insisting on my revision triggering an edit war. I wish to draw attention to the fact that the revision that was being pushed as a replacement actually deletes those user comments I merely rearranged and is thus far worse. This has contributed to my insistence on my own revision. I read in the above complaint about "archiving". Don't know what that's about, if it is relevant, and no one has bothered to say anything about it to me despite Eaglestorm's statement above.
- The reason this entire brouhaha has been kicked up is because of a revision by GraYoshi2x and his comments accusing me in the following words "what are you doing modifying other people's comments? I'm fine with removing the spam but DO NOT try to skew and destroy the original meaning of the discussions". A close examination of my revision will show this is a false, misleading, and malicious accusation. I earlier restored some comments he had deleted in the article on crispy fried chicken and can only presume he took umbrage at it and thought to retaliate. GraYoshi2x also seems to have a predisposition to erase everything he does not think fits instead of simply tagging things needing revision and has drawn comment from other users for it. 4 Because GraYoshi2x's edit removes comments by other users I consider GraYoshi2x's edit vandalism and submit that my reversion of it should not be counted towards the 3RR. I can only call it unfortunate that JL 09, Eaglestorm, and Howard The Duck took the bait and in my view did not verify the accusations by checking the revisions carefully before assuming bad faith and improper conduct on my part.
- I trust that after a careful review of the facts and evidence I will be vindicated. 5 edits: fixed hyperlinks and further additions. Lambanog (talk) 11:26, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
- How does a whole section on how I did such-and-such on completely unrelated articles have anything to do with your modifying of others' comments? You don't defend your own actions by insulting others instead. And regardless of whether or not what you did was correct, you still violated 3RR. GraYoshi2x►talk 20:05, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
- From the definitions at the top of this page: "The three-revert rule does not apply to self-reverts, reverts within a user's own user space, or reverts of obvious vandalism" (emphasis mine). Lambanog (talk) 04:07, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
- Vandalism? Even the most unhelpful-looking edit is not vandalism, as long as it was made in good faith. Read WP:VAND for the actual definition of vandalism. Edits that you disagree with are certainly not. GraYoshi2x►talk 19:36, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
- Your comment on my edit: "DO NOT try to skew and destroy the original meaning of the discussions". Please cite the relevant parts of my edit where I "skew and destroy the original meaning of the discussions". While you are at it, please explain what brought you to that particular page at that particular time. Lambanog (talk) 21:18, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
- What are you even getting at; I don't even know how this relates to what I said above...? From the looks of it, you're trying to hold some type of mock trial, which is not the way we resolve disputes on Wikipedia. I simply happened to be there; it's the internet after all. GraYoshi2x►talk 02:19, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
- Anyways, this discussion isn't leading anywhere and the facts are straightforward; you reverted an edit more than 3 times on a page, all of which were not cases of clear-cut vandalism. If you want to resolve a dispute, then head that-a-way. And with that said, I'm out of here. GraYoshi2x►talk 02:40, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
- Comment Lambanog, even though you reverted your edits, you did revert all other edits done by editors thrice at the same day. And that covers 3RR.JL 09 q?c 12:31, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
- This has gone stale, and Lambanog has been warned appropriately, so I'll archive this. Don't edit war again, please. Master of Puppets 05:42, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

The Four Deuces (talk) 07:03, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
Actually, I have not reverted the page 3 times, I reverted it twice following an attempt by this person to remove clearly substantive additions. You can see in the history what they were, that they are substantive and referenced and also that I attempted to speak with this person on the talk page. He responds by saying "conservatism in the united states is an oxymoron". He is clearly an activist editor.
Link to my counter warning for him. [40] As you may notice on the talk page, it is I who made the last post. He has gone onto a strange tangent comparing American politics to that of UK politics, of which this article is clearly not about. --default (talk) 09:32, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

User:Drsmoo reported by User:Carolmooredc (Result:Mediating)
- Page: Gilad Atzmon (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- User: Drsmoo (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
As shown in history, three reverts in 24 hours:
For example, Drsmoo's 3rr edit here using this vitriolic opinion piece by Nick Cohen which compares Atzmon to a Nazi, something clearly questionable under WP:BLP.
Note that Drsmoo was blocked from editing the same article for 3rr in March 2009.
Background: There was so much editing warring of this article - especially over Drsmoo and others adding of poorly sourced, primary sourced or out of context Atzmon quotations which had to be constantly reverted or put in context, that the subject of the article complained, there was an OTRS and the article was locked from April 15 to September 30. As you can see from Drsmoo’s series of edits above, he is again insisting on adding poorly sourced material (defamatory statements from a political organizations web site) and a source that is merely a polemical attack, even if it is from a WP:RS. Instead of working with editors who contest these controversial edits, including by bringing them to WP:BLPN, he insists on reverting deletions of this material and adding even more contested and controversial material, merely justifying his actions on the talk page. CarolMooreDC (talk) 14:38, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
Updated new examples of edit warring at this diff:
- Drsmoo deleted the statement (in the article for more than six months) "I think Jewish ideology is driving our planet into a catastrophe and we must stop." made to a neutral journalist and presented in context and used it instead in a quote a polemicist opinion writer alleges Atzmon said in a debate, without giving any context at all. This is the definition of POV against BLP and an example of extreme edit warring (though to be fair I did bring to WP:RSN).
- This vendetta against me is reaching into the hilarious realm, I restored an edit made by two other editors who CarolMoore had asked to help her, as can be seen in the edit history . This wasn't my edit lol. What's even more ironic, is that I was the one to originally added the Gisborne Herald source Ms. Moore is criticizing me for deleting (even thought it was two other editors who changed it) Perhaps Ms. Moore feels she can make herself happy by blatantly lying about me. It hasn't been very successful for her so far. Drsmoo (talk) 17:03, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
- Drsmoo violated NPOV/BLP by deleting the Socialist Party defense against the Committee's attack on Atzmon and the party. He also removed the reference which contains the defense so the material is now unreferenced, a violation of WP:V. (Unless, to be fair, he wants the whole quote him specifically name Atzmon as the Jew the committee is defending.)
- This diff: Drsmoo removes what the authors say while retaining their references to support his point. See "in context" paragraph of this diff.
- What is most "ironic", is that the article was locked with the so called "offending" quotes inside. It was locked because admins were tired of the above editor attempting to remove every notable case that perhaps cast the subject in a less than heavenly light. Only to have the above editor immediately resume deleting the relevant notable information upon the article being unlocked. Once again, this is all in the page histories.
- As you can clearly see, there was only one revert. The other was to add a line and the third was to remove blatant vandalism. I wish she would stop harassing me. The above editor has unsuccessfully sent various editors messages in their talk pages asking them to "help" her. She posted on the BLP noticeboard, and they sided with me, so now she's going here to attempt to have me banned from the article. Her whole point is that all of Atzmon's anti-semitic statements, and whole articles, should be removed. Somehow, his own words are "defaming" him, even/especially when they are discussed by notable commentators/reporters in reliable sources. Such as the Guardian/The Times. Again you can look at the history of the article, in the talk pages, and on every noticeboard she has posted the same thing on, going from one to the other. Everyone agrees that these sources are notable, and must be in the article.
- I am fairly certain that Harassment is against Wikipedia rules. Namely, going to various editors, and telling them to revert my edits (which none of them do) as well as going to noticeboards and saying I should be banned.
- Just look at the edit histories, and the article. The whole thing is an apology for the subject, the same sentiment being expressed on the BLP noticeboard, and 90% of the article was written by the above editor. Drsmoo (talk) 14:57, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
- Drsmoo: if you think you have a case against me, complain elsewhere and don't forget anyone can make vague accusations. Proving them with diffs can be much more difficult, especially if there aren't any. CarolMooreDC (talk) 22:43, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
- Contrary to the above editor's claims, Nick Cohen's commentary was supported in the article by every other editor working on it. It was not from a debate, but from an interview Atzmon did with the Gisborne Herald, which is cited in the article. The above editor is the only one who wants Cohen removed, solely on the grounds that she does not agree with this journalist's politics. The commentary was noteworthy, by a noteworthy reporter, in a noteworthy newspaper, [The Guardian]
- Similarly, the Socialist Worker's Party statement was that "calling Jews anti-Semites there is a risk that they undermine the term anti-Semite." This is an ideological, philosophical statement, rather than a specific defense of Atzmon. Drsmoo (talk) 13:37, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
- This has become too muddled; there's a dispute between editors, it seems. I'll discuss it separately. Right now edit-warring seems to have passed (just don't bring it back). Master of Puppets 05:45, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for trying to mediate - my reply on your talk page. However, it is clear when someone has done 3rr.. Evidently I should just have brought everything else to the place recommended by the BLPDispute tag.
- Note that I am giving it 24-36 hours to allow others to chime in, but I do feel that Drsmoo's edits continue to be a violation of BLP by an individual who has proved he is obsessed with making the subject look bad - (almost the only article he's edited this year) - triggering an OTRS BLP complaint by Atzmon himsef (according to a category that previously was on bottom of talk page). If Atzmon is paying much attention he'll probably complain again. CarolMooreDC (talk) 16:20, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- Others have been chiming in consistently, particularly after you asked them too on noticeboards, you just keep reverting their edits. Drsmoo (talk) 19:21, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- Neither editor has complained about my edits, one to increase the amount of neutral info in the paragraph per WP:BLP (there was twice as much negative from biased sources as NPOV from neutral sources) and the other asked for something shorter than the spring draft a few people worked on and I gave it to him. Please join the mediation proposed by Master_of_Puppets. CarolMooreDC (talk) 18:09, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
- I don't know why you're asking me to "join the mediation" Master of Puppets and I have been working on this for a while now. And there was nothing POV or biased about the sources, you just removed them because you didn't like them, but they've been restored. The other editors who you ignored have been asked to help as well. Drsmoo (talk) 18:23, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Comments:
This is such a "crank" that nobody has taken him seriously. He's copied a notable but controversial point of view from the article and put it in as the first sentence (above a "US-centric warning box"). Not even vandalism, per se, but awful annoying after 5 or 6 editors have reverted and explained in the edit summary why it can't stay that way. Smallbones (talk) 20:11, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
- Persistant vandalism of the Raj Rajaratnam page by him has led to him being reported by me to the ANI as well [42]. I would respectfully request banning on both the account and the IP address as well. Kerr avon (talk) 00:14, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
- I dont agree that that his edits are persistant vandalism with respect to Raj Rajaratnam. Looks like if when an editor adds information with reliable material that is making the article from a propganad and POV pushing one into a neutral tone one then you cannot say that he is pov pushing and vandalizing.Taprobanus (talk) 06:42, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
- Also adding Raj Rajaratnam to the See also section of Insider trading by user user:Kerr avon may be violating WP:BLP which seems to have contributed to the edit warring. Admins need to look at all sources for this conflict involving Raj Rajaratnam article. Let's all go back to writing a encylopedia not use this for personal grudges based on our place of origin and ethinic identities.Taprobanus (talk) 06:50, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
- I fully reject any violation of BLP on my part. Raj Rajratnam's close connections to the LTTE are well reported in the mainstream media. He is even being sued in the USA for funding a terrorist organisation. user Slick112's edits have all shown a lack of respect, POV pushing, adding irrelevant information, and removing cited information against Rajaratnam. The article was semi protected due to his vandalism and it looks like it will have to be done again. I am not the only editor he has edit warred with. Sine he is a SPA his edits are biased and he should be banned.Kerr avon (talk) 13:05, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
I'm a bit puzzled why this is taking so long The violations at insider trading to me seem crystal clear, just take a minute at the page's history and the violations should jump out at you. Nobody is actually edit warring against User:Slick112, but when 6 unrelated editors revert obvious bad edits and then he reverts back it looks like he is edit warring against the community. The most recent blatant errors he is making are personal attacks in his edit summaries, that is "stop deleting facts that you disagree with,smallballs" apparently aimed at me, and "stop deleting facts that you disagree with, Grandma" apparently aimed at User:Epstein's Mother. As far as I know edits at Raj Rajaratnam have nothing to do with the edits at Insider trading.
Just to be clear - I think a 24 hour block would get the point across that he needs to try to understand some of Wikipedia's basic rules. Smallbones (talk) 21:15, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
- Still going with 24.186.79.32 diff - MrOllie (talk) 22:18, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
- I assume you mean that 24.186.79.32 is still edit warring (it wasn't clear at first reading). In any case, thanks for reverting back to a reasonable version, making you the 7th editor to have reverted him. But what will happen when he reverts back one more time? Smallbones (talk) 22:32, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Just see Talk:Vivek Kundra#Recent edits concerning 66.171.128.239 which I haven't even participated in.
Comments:
I am actually on Reconsider the static's side in this content dispute. I make this report reluctantly. You may notice that I myself made two reverts much like they did. But I've stopped at two and won't make any more. I'm only reporting them because of the excessive number of reverts, including the last two after a warning to stop. 13 reverts in a 24 hour period is excessive even if done for the right reasons. -- Atama頭 17:05, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
As to the other side in this content dispute, 66.171.128.239 was already blocked for disruptive behavior, and I've opened a sockpuppetry case for those opposing Reconsider the static in this edit war. -- Atama頭 17:05, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
Response First of all, I acknowledge the fact that I violated the 3RR rule, my purpose here is not to dispute that. I suppose in this response I will attempt to justify my position by bringing forth situational justification and the case of vandalism by the anonymous IP. It has been argued that the edits that I reverted do not constitute as vandalism. I dispute the claim on the basis that 66.171.128.239 made several edits in which sourced content was removed without the provision of an explaination [58] [59]. The user then went on the repeat the same edits, however an explaination was given "Please Read and follow Wikipedia policy" [60]. I think that you would agree that ""Please Read and follow Wikipedia policy" hardly constitutes as a valid reason for removing an entire referenced paragrah. I rever the edits and the cycle continues. The removal of sourced content without an explaination definitely constitutes as vandalism, thus I believe my initial reverts can be excused under the notion that 3RR does not apply under the instances of reverting vandalism. I know that I made quite a number of reverts after that, I will now discuss that issue. I do not believe that the explaination given for the removal was adaquate, as others have agreed thus I reverted the edits. I believe that in the event of a contentious edit, it is the person's job to discuss the issue and gain a consensus. The long and ardous discussion under "Regarding Arrest" [61] suggests that no consensus has been made on the underlying issue, thus the edits by 66.171.128.239 is a violation of such editing processes. The actual reason for this edit warring report is the fact that I reverted after my 3RR warninig. My response is that I was reverting socks by a banned user, and thus the notion of "edit warring" does not apply. By the way, the article in question is actually protected due to "Excessive vandalism: repeated removal of sourced material by ips not participating on talk page", which again, reinforces the point I'm trying to make. -Reconsider the static (talk) 11:21, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you, Atama, for reporting someone you agree with; I'm very impressed with that move. Also, I appreciate your tenacity in trying to keep Wikipedia better, Reconsider the static. Next time, try to report this to us early-on (or, if you feel it is blatant vandalism, WP:AIV), so that nobody has to break the 3RR. Thanks! Master of Puppets 05:14, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- I should probably add this to clarify; if this happens again, people most likely won't be as understanding, given this occurrence. Please don't take this as an excuse to edit war! Master of Puppets 05:25, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the consideration. I will exercise greater care in future. -Reconsider the static (talk) 06:51, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Comments:
This user, using two separate IPs, has repeatedly reverted (around 20 times since July) the actions of numerous editors at the Earth Song article. He has reverted my edits, restoring in the process factually incorrect information, grammatical errors, original research, unreliable sources and links to copyright material. This user has not once used the talk page for discussion, despite numerous and continual pleas to do so. He has been warned numerous times, but fails to heed them. His disruptive behaviour cannot continue to be met with warnings. I feel that a block or article semi-protection is the only way to stop the unconstructive edits of this user.

Also I am not sure if we need to wait for further reversions, given that the user and his sock has already made 7-10 reverst despite multiple 3RR warnings.

Comments:
While this individual, who began editing the article under a series of varying IPs early last month, has not breached 3RR, I still believe that their reversions, as well as their complete avoidance of any sort of discourse on any talk page, proves a serious problem. I refuse to revert the page any further (I have already done so twice), and my repeated attempts to establish a connection with this edit warring anon have been unsuccessful. Their edits to the page are nonconstructive and problematic (see the first IP's talk page for my specific concerns), as another user on the talk page mentioned a month ago, and although I have extended the olive branch several times, I have received nothing in kind. I'm at a loss as to what is the next step. Either way, their uncooperative edit warring is disruptive and detrimental to the article. María (habla conmigo) 22:03, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- Warned the most recent offender. If this keeps going on at this rate, I'd say to request page protection. Cheers, Master of Puppets 03:17, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

- 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. Use talk pages to discuss revert war with editor. Nja247 07:54, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: see lengthy discussion at Talk:Sarah Palin
Comments:
Editor was aware that numerous editors and administrators believed his similar edits at Sarah Palin to be problematic per wp:blp. Given the facts, it appears clear he pursued the same matter at Todd Palin in an attempt to circumvent the consensus against his edits at Sarah Palin, wp:blp notwithstanding. user:J aka justen (talk) 15:22, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
