Edit warring

--107.15.41.141 (talk) 22:01, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

This article is subject to tons and tons and tons of fan speculation. I've also been gamed into this by a banned user trying to get me blocked. Also of note is that this IP left me a threat that had to be oversighted. This should be shut down and the article semi-protected (as I have requested multiple times to end the vandalism and unsourced edits) so established editors can work on it properly.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 23:57, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

First edit is a revert, this is reverting a banned user which is an exemption to 3RR, part of this is also reverting a banned user which is exempt from 3RR, a revert, a revert, this is not a revert at all but a rewrite, this is also not a revert at all but another rewrite, another exemption from 3RR, partial self-revert to reinclude content that was removed in prior edit that is not a revert anyway, probably a revert but I went to the talk page. There was no "attempt to resolve on the article talk page" as the edit brought up is an edit summary made by a banned user's sockpuppet so this whole thing should be thrown out. 107.15.41.141 is an IP operated by a Gamergate troll who is trying to get me banned through any means necessary.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:02, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

First, a minor point. The IP's edits were rev/del'd, not oversighted. Second, who is the banned user?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:07, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Fine, revdel. The Israeli IPs (the 31 ones) I believe belong to user:Wiki-star/User:Dragonron who just reverts me for the sake of reverting me rather than any actual interest in the topic seeing as he reverted me on completely unrelated pages.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:11, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

To be clear, I've reported the IPs because of the reverts to items that were not Five Nights at Freddy's 2 but checkuser isn't going to solve anything with that new evidence.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:13, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I believe he's referencing this sockpuppet investigation. He's concluded the investigation on his own apparently, allowing him to exceed 3RR. Even discounting the reverts of the alleged banned user, I believe he's still exceeded 3RR. Ryulong, can you please clarify what you mean by "probably a revert but I went to the talk page" -- I see don't see recent contributions by you to the talk page. And please keep your comments civil. -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 00:22, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I went to the user talk page of Spidervenom123 to leave him a message telling him that his edits are unwarranted because I left him an identical message 5 months ago regarding the other game.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:28, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Now he's apparently followed me to unrelated pages to revert my comments in a discussion he was not involved in?? 107.15.41.141 (talk) 00:26, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

That was trolling on your half, plain and simple, just as you've done across the project.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:28, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I can't see the point in continuing this conversation beyond argument for argument sake; admins (or whoever reviews these requests) you have my evidence, if you have further questions I will attempt to address them. -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 00:33, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

How is this attempt at being a strawman "SJW" not trolling?—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:36, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Recommend review of IP's contributons. There's very few 'main space' edits & mostly drama. WP:NOTHERE, might be considered. GoodDay (talk) 00:38, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, because no one in good faith notifies every editor I've reverted in the past 24 hours of this thread [12], [13] (there are others but the IP made the pages new so there's no diff).—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:04, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I'm not familiar with procedure in these proceedings, I was not involved in the edit war so I thought it relevant to notify the involved editors. Ryulong went to each of these user's pages and removed my notification. He appears to be "following" me around wikipedia and reverting my edits, is this permitted? Please advise. -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 03:17, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

There's no reason to notify anyone else about this.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:20, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I do not often participate in discussions on this board but I have two observations. Ryulong is being baited and Ryulong should know how to not take the bait. Chillum 03:24, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Chillum, I agree 100%. The question is, what are we going to do? Block for edit warring which seems to have happened? (But I'll want Bbb23 to confirm.) Block the IP for dramah mongering even though they've made a few valid article edits? Drmies (talk) 03:27, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
• Well then get rid of the fisherman because he keeps blowing up my notifications when he restores his invalid messages across the project. I'm obviously being baited but I have to respond to this shit so I don't get blocked for being baited in the first place. Half of the edits hes pointed out are not reverts. Then others are exempt from 3RR.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:27, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
• Admins, can you please advise on this issue: Ryulong has reverted my notification on these users' talk pages multiple times. In addition, he reverted my removal of his "instructions" from my own talk page. Is this permitted? -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 03:31, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

  Every time you do it I get notified because you've linked to my talk page and I asked you to stop but you clearly haven't. You are the definition of WP:NOTHERE.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:32, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

  Everyone doesn't have to be notified - only the user being reported. Further, his removal of any "warnings" and such on his talk page is an acknowledgement that he's gotten the message and he has the right to remove them. Dusti^{*Let's talk!*} 03:34, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

You misunderstand, he removed the notifications I placed on OTHER users' talk pages, multiple times. In addition, he reverted my removal of HIS notification on MY talk page. I hope that clarifies. Is this permitted? -- 03:35, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Ryulong, that was foolish. I have blocked you for three hours on the minor matter of edit warring on the IP's talk page (a clear-cut case, where you disregarded their request you stay the hell away) and the notifications. That there may be no requirement that they notify other involved parties doesn't mean that they can't--frankly, I'm surprised that you'd make such a big deal out of something like that, but that's what EW is often about. Chillum, Bbb23, your advice on the larger matter is appreciated. Drmies (talk) 03:37, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Is there any objection to me restoring these notices and reverting my talk page? -- 107.15.41.141 (talk) 03:40, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

For the record I have blocked this IP. The recent contributions from this IP show a bad faith and successful attempt at disruption and little to no effort to create an encyclopedia. As always my talk page is open for discussion. Chillum 03:43, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Well, another admin beat me to it: yes, after the latest edits I was going over there for a NOTHERE block. Thanks Chillum. Drmies (talk) 03:44, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Given recent history I think it is a rotating IP who is reoccurring as such I used a short block. I am watching the IP though and if the same person resumes I will increase the next block. Chillum 03:47, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Sorry everyone, but I was busy doing bad things, you know like eating dinner, watching a movie, terrible things like that. Looks like you sorted it all out. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 05:30, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

• Page: Sangram Singh (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This editor is edit-warring on Sangram Singh and has now violated WP:3RR on suspicion that he is reverting copyright violations, I see it as mere content dispute, the information being removed which I personally favour. He claims it is copy-pasted from the source but the source is reliable and the info can easily be rewritten and redacted, not a legitimate excuse for blanking.

94.197.46.68 (talk) 18:53, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

I was just in the process of reporting this IP at WP:ANI for repeated violations of copyright. If the IP wants to rewrite the content, he/she can - but we DO NOT include copyright-violating content in artices, ever.

It should be noted that this IP appears to have followed me from the Vivek Murthy article, where I had reverted the addition of an image clearly copied without attribution, and in violation of copyright, from the Washington Times. [[14]] — Preceding unsigned comment added by AndyTheGrump (talk • contribs)

For closing admin: bottom line: 3RR has been violated and at the time of my post, the defendant has not self-reverted and this is compelling evidence of edit-warring in that the accused has no intention of standing back. --94.197.46.68 (talk) 19:07, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

The IP clearly posted here to harass Andy and cares little about copyright violations. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 19:07, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Two things, if the witness testifying for the accused has any proof of the allegation then may he take it to the appropriate project page, otherwise if he has evidence that 3RR has not been violated then may he present that here. Thank you. --94.197.46.68 (talk) 19:09, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Fact: the material in the Sangram Singh article was copy-pasted from the sources cited, in violation of copyright. Fact: removals of copyright violations are exempt from WP:3RR. Fact: repeated violations of copyright aren't exempt... AndyTheGrump (talk) 19:13, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

All right then, where is the evidence that it is a copyvio? 94.197.46.68 (talk) 19:16, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

If you actually checked the links, you'd see that text was copied from linked pages. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 19:20, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

The IP has continued to insert the image into the Vivek Murthy article, despite the warning template on the image page (both on Wikipedia[15] and Commons [16]) Since it seems apparent that this IP has no intention of complying with policy, I suggest a substantial block is called for. AndyTheGrump (talk) 19:21, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Result: Submitter blocked 5 days for copyright violations. The photo of Vivek Murthy was published in the Washington Times and there is no evidence that it has been made free for our use. Regarding the IP's statement, "the info can easily be rewritten and redacted". That is not how copyright is handled here. The material should not even go into the edit history if it's copyrighted text. EdJohnston (talk) 19:44, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Actually, I think the only reason it stopped is because Lmmnhn did the last reverts at both templates and UU hasn't edited anything since that time.--Bbb23 (talk) 06:14, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

Previous version reverted to: [25]

In my previous complaint, anonymous IPs were reverting the Hi-5 section "reasons for leaving", which the RFC discussion had agreed to remove and incorporate into the History section since the former section was unsourced and not appropriate for the band members section. Since then the article was submitted for RPP and protected for some days.

A contributor has been actively working with the new section, however, today, decided that they wanted the original "reasons for leaving" section back and has restored the article to that state.

I have attempted to remove the section again but the user has reverted multiple times and I have reached my limit on how to enforce this.

Comments:

Uncalled for, we are discussing things on the Talk page. Nyytend has been going through and making lots of changes, some fine, some not. I had zero intention of bringing him here and am surprised by this. The edit warring notice elsewhere is not relevant to this discussion. So no warning. Nyytend please withdraw this or we are both liable to be blocked. Jytdog (talk) 17:51, 9 December 2014 (UTC) Difs by Nyytend:

• removes sourced content that was valid per WP:PSCI
• dif removing established, sourced content
• again remove sourced, to the point content
• removes content again
• there is more but that is plenty. Jytdog (talk) 18:03, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

There's a major difference between simply removing content and actively reverting someone. 3RR applies to situations when you hit the undo button or actively restore something someone else removed; that happened five times here, and only one of them (Jytdog's final diff) was done by me. Nyttend (talk) 18:08, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Jytdog's been doing this quite actively, and has been trolling discussions trying to get users who question his edits banned as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.87.120.162 (talk) 18:12, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

I learned of this incident from a report at WP:ANI (section "Tag-team / organized abuse by User:Elaqueate and User:Guerillero to WP:OWN Vani Hari") by an IP who was clearly the same person as this IP. Time for a rangeblock. Nyttend (talk) 18:21, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

note - user above is a sock that has now been blocked here - was writing personal attacks at Talk:Vani Hari that I was removing per WP:TPG. Jytdog (talk) 21:02, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

From a quick look it seems that both User:Jytdog and User:Nyttend may be edit warring. My proposal is that both Jytdog and Nyttend make a voluntary agreement to not edit the article again for five days. That would save 3RR admins the effort to scrutinize all these diffs and apply the exact letter of the law as to whether 3RR has been violated. There seems to be an active discussion on Talk. The IP comments just above appear to be from a sock from the 66.87.* range who has just been dealt with at ANI. EdJohnston (talk) 18:32, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

How have I been edit-warring? I've done a lot of rearranging, including cutting some bits as linked above, but they were there before I came along; I would have done them all at once if I'd felt like it. Significantly different from repeatedly hitting the "undo" button. Nyttend (talk) 18:37, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

It looks to me that Jytdog made reverts at 15:00, 15:02, 15:04, 15:29, 15:49, 15:51 and 17:25. Nyttend, you are the only other person editing during this time period. Do you believe that *he* is reverting while all you are doing are normal edits? Per WP:EW, "a revert means undoing the actions of other editors", and isn't limited only to the Undo button. EdJohnston (talk) 18:53, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Yes, it's quite possible. Imagine that you find an article, and you go around making edits to it. Someone else comes along and hits the "undo" button to revert a bunch of the edits you've made: if that happens enough times, the other guy has broken the three-revert rule, regardless of whether you have. Note that my first diff wasn't the Undo button ("add deleted criticism where it belongs"), but it was a revert anyway. I could give you a much more detailed explanation if requested, but a simple check of the page history will demonstrate that I wasn't going around removing his additions, restoring his removals, or putting back his modifications. I would appreciate knowing precisely which edits involve actual reversion: you have the one re-removing the surgeon, and this because I thought he accidentally removed more than intended in a previous edit (as far as I can tell, Jytdog didn't disagree), but that's all. Nyttend (talk) 19:26, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

As I mentioned there is a certain "ick" factor for me to getting hauled to 3RR without warning, and in my view Nyttend and I were having a reasonably good and civil communication going on both Talk and in edit notes. I was not unhappy with Nyttend's editing and only provided diffs for leverage in this discussion, to be frank. I am sorry that Nyttend found my behavior to violate the spirit and letter of EDITWAR. I am not emotionally invested in it in terms of the work I do here, and have my hands full with articles I care about (not to mention the haters in peanut gallery sandwiching this discussion.) I would be happy to walk away from the Vani Hari article and unwatch it, and accept any warning given. Would be happier to keep my hand in but the last thing I need is another admin's ire. Acceptable? Jytdog (talk) 20:58, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

• Comment - Jytdog has been edit-warring on multiple pages including Oseltamivir and Vani Hari. He is trying to add links to self-published blogs and it's time for an administrator to take action against Jytdog's advocacy for these pseudoscientific publications -A1candidate (talk) 18:55, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
• Comment – Nyttend's bulk deletions here are far from consensus (see the extensive talk: coverage) Jytdog is merely the editor who got to them first. This is far from the sort of edit-warring deserving sanction (even on Nyttend's part). Andy Dingley (talk) 20:45, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

• Result: The Vani Hari article has been protected 24 hours by User:Fluffernutter. If anyone thinks that Jytdog's edits on the Oseltamivir article amount to edit warring, file a regular 3RR report on that article and supply diffs. If a new war breaks out at Vani Hari when protection expires the next admin might decide that blocks are needed. EdJohnston (talk) 21:21, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Content reverted:	current_members = The Danse Society Maethelyiah Paul Nash Jack Cooper Iain Hunter Sam Bollands	past_members = Paul Gilmartin David Whitaker Steve Rawlings Martin Roberts Lyndon Scarfe Tim Wright Paul Hampshire In 1980, they recorded and released their first 7" single, "Clock," on their own newly-formed record label, Society Records. The Seduction was their first independent album released on Society Records in 1982, a six-track album containing the live favourites "Godsend", "Ambition" and "Danse Move" as well as the atmospheric classic "In Heaven Everything is Fine". They recorded several Radio 1 sessions including a released John Peel session 'Woman's Own" and "Were So Happy" and topped the Independent Charts with the single "Somewhere". Their most well known album, Heaven is Waiting, was released in December, 1983 by Arista. The album contained the singles "Wake Up" and "Heaven is Waiting" and a cover of The Rolling Stones song, "2000 light years from home", released in 1984 as a 12" single and as a limited edition double single. They released two further singles under Arista "Say it Again' and "Hold On". In 1986 after releasing their final album as Danse Society International, Looking Through back on their own label again the band split from Rawlings and the other band members left to form Johnny In The Clouds. [| current_members = The Danse Society Paul Gilmartin Brian Jay Elliot Wheeler Craig Eddington Mal MacCafferty ] [| past_members = Maetheliyah David Whitaker Steve Rawlings Martin Roberts Lyndon Scarfe Tim Wright Paul Hampshire ] [At the time of writing this (December 2014) The Danse Society now consists of Paul Gilmartin, David Whitaker, Mal Macafferty, Elliot Wheeler, Craig Eddington and Brian Jay. Martin Roberts having left to pursue other band interests as well as recording and producing artists and bands. Paul Nash and Louisa Pile continue to make music and at this time also use the band name.] [Gilmartin's Danse Society has regained the original ethos of the band with a strong male vocal which is proving popular with fans old and new as well as live audiences. David Whitaker is instrumental (pun intended) in the band's development and direction and supports it in the studio whilst Craig Eddington's keyboards make the live performances as ethereal and dramatic as ever. Mal's bass and technical expertise complements Gilmartin's distinctive and powerful drums to provide a solid TDS foundation to Elliot Wheeler's innovative and evocative lead guitar. The vocal is powerful and distinctive with echoes of Rawlings in fusion with a new yet polished talent that comes from a veteran rock vocalist with the experience, charisma and presence required of a successful front person.] [The Danse Society Reincarnated itself and indeed - a sixth studio album penned by Gilmartin's skilled lyrical hand and scored by the band is imminent - as is another single and in 2015 more live performances to supplement the dozen or so that they have already undertaken. Behind the scenes, there is much happening including a resolution to who will actually sue The Danse Society name and title. Paul Gilmartin registered and holds Intellectual Property Rights to "The Danse Society" and the Crown of Thorns logo. Further consolidation is being finalised and 2015 will see the band refreshed and secure and delivering quality Dark Wave to the loyal and patient fanbase as well as new audiences. The Danse continues.]

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [From this page you can see that the user assumes that registering a trademark on pre-existing copyrights gives him the right to totally delete the previous 4 years of history of the reformed band as stated in the official website www.thedansesociety.com when such user was in the band before he resigned in writing on the 29th January 2014 during the tour with no notice. The same user I am reporting is not only in breach of copyright but is also adding facts not relevant to the band history, is spreading false personal information on the band members past and current, and is assuming a manipulative position based on a trademark that is in the process of being invalidated for the above reasons. He first hasn't attempted to contact the band before resigning, then as stated in his interview, where he clearly declares that he first resigned, then called his new band Heaven is Waiting, then changed his mind otherwise his current singer wouldn't have accepted anything other than The Danse Society, so then he registered the trademark on somebody else's existing copyright and instantly puts himself in charge of deleting the current band members that never left the boat, to install himself and his new partners of venture, calling himself as a contributor for editing in the name of truth. Also such user has already been notified by Paul Nash's solicitor.]

Comments:

As a long time fan, having seen the band dying in the 80s and following the last 4 years of hard team work to reclaim a good reputation, seeing such a lack of respect for a team for a lonely ex band member in this way, I am frankly appalled. Since Wikipedia has always been a point of reference for everyone, I believe that if Mr Tarnhall has got something to say this should not mean deleting 4 years of history for his personal revenge and changes of mind. People are interested in The Danse Society and not in his personal ventures, I believe. I hope this explains the reasons for my report. ps: I apologise for struggling with the structure of this report. Thank you.

So I added a link to the people article and wrote about the age lie in the personal section of the article. Can people please stop changing the correct info.? I do have doubts about when exactly she began lying about her age as some commentors have pointed-out that she may have done it early in her career because she would have been ineligible for her MTV show as they allegedly had an age limit of 25, but the statement from the sister implies that her cancer was most of the reason although she did mention "show biz"-so if anyone wants to add that or more valid refs about it they may. There are other valid ref articles available, but none really confirm when she started the lie98.221.118.184 (talk) 22:34, 10 December 2014 (UTC)]

Diff of attempt Attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk:Shooting_of_Michael_Brown#Common_sense

Comments: User eventually opened the talk discussion, but only after ignoring my first invitation and reverting. They then claimed an agreement that did not exist and reverted again on that basis. That is the current state of the article.

This is my first trip to this board, and I apologize for any presentation shortcomings. I hope I don't do this enough to become good at it. ‑‑Mandruss ☎ 22:51, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

I genuinely believed we had come to an agreement, per discussion, since 1) it was agreed that "suburb" did not need linking, and 2) there was no reply to my observation that Ferguson, Missouri cannot be overlinking (ie, drawing attention away from the text), since it looks identical to Ferguson, Missouri which was in the article previously.

I did not do more than 3 reverts. The 3rd was after the talk page discussion appeared, in my understanding, and in the absence of a reply, to have reached agreement. If you had reverted, of course, that would have indicated otherwise (to my astonishment), and I would not have reverted again, obviously, since that would go over 3RR.

You say "ignoring my first invitation". I did not "ignore" your invitation: I thought it would be equally productive, and more efficient, to offer a better explanation in my edit summary. Specifically, "some of us don't know where Missouri is; everyone knows what a suburb is" (my 2nd edit summary) rather than simply "better linking" (my 1st ES, which I had initially assumed would be sufficient). The more complete explanation was my preferred method of reaching consensus, in the first instance, rather than opening a talk page discussion about this minor edit. When the full explanation was not sufficient, I did open the discussion.

In what sense had we not come to an agreement? You admitted that you had not checked my edit before reverting. Now that you have, I would really like you to explain how Ferguson, Missouri is worse than Ferguson, Missouri? As I mentioned, the benefit of Ferguson, Missouri is that not everyone knows where Missouri is. Barely anyone outside the US does (I assume). zzz (talk) 23:24, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

I clearly stated my objection to Missouri on the talk page. I'm not going to do it again here. Be advised, you can't claim failure to respond as an agreement. If you could, things would get very complicated if one of the parties had to leave for some reason. I agree when I say I agree. ‑‑Mandruss ☎ 23:33, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

(As I said, I have not gone over 3RR.) The only part of the edit I can imagine anyone disagreeing with was my unlinking of "suburb"; but you agreed to this, after admitting you had not previously checked my edit (despite reverting it twice). After this had been established, I stated "It seems we are in agreement" (and there was no reply when I returned to the page, after editing on other pages). I would not have assumed anything from this normally, but in this case it is logically impossible to object to Ferguson, Missouri as opposed to Ferguson, Missouri - which is so self-evident, that it did not occur to me that you might still object. I repeat, please tell me, what is your objection? zzz (talk) 23:46, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

This is not the place to resolve content disputes. That is what article talk pages are for. If you will self-revert and agree to leave the article in that state until there is consensus for the change, I will be happy to withdraw this complaint and continue the content discussion where it belongs. The discussion is still quite new, but it's not currently going your way. ‑‑Mandruss ☎ 23:53, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

You said "I clearly stated my objection to Missouri on the talk page". Well, you did mention "overlinking"; I explained, in terms of policy, how this cannot be the case. Since we are in fact now discussing this at enormous length, please state your objection. zzz (talk) 00:01, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

For the third and final time, this is not the place to resolve content disputes and I will not abuse this space because you insist that I do. I am requesting some kind of intervention here. ‑‑Mandruss ☎ 00:05, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Note that Qwerty3594 (talk · contribs) has also been similarly edit-warring (not filing separate report for paucity of time). User has also been warned about edit-warring at my talk-page, at the India project page etc, but with no effect.

User attempting to alter standard infobox practices (and also the standard link to Kurdish people in the body text) without consensus and despite repeated Talk page requests to confirm infobox practices on that infobox template's Talk page. Softlavender (talk) 22:12, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

• Comment: I sounds like User:MaronitePride has conceded the point at Talk:Hamdi Ulukaya#Infobox, but his version is still the latest one on the article itself. If the editor is in fact willing to accept the consensus about infobox parameters, maybe he can go ahead and undo his last revert at Hamdi Ulukaya. If he does so that might allow this report to be closed with no further action. EdJohnston (talk) 19:24, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Result: No action, since the editor self-reverted as requested. Their edit summary indicates they may still not understood that making nationality changes is risky. Such matters present a stronger than usual need to check for consensus. And we know what trouble infoboxes can bring. EdJohnston (talk) 20:03, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

@EdJohnston Unfortunately, nationality issues are about the only thing this user edits, and his/her screenname tends to reflect his/her obsession with nationality. I do appreciate the way this was handled, however I agree that the edit summary is concerning and may reflect a wider problem. Softlavender (talk) 21:18, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:

•  Comment: I am a photographer and my contributions to Wikipedia consist mainly in finding good pictures for the articles; that is precisely what I tried to do here, without success. I see no quick solution for this case, as the editor acts like he owns the article and has apparently loosed his temper. Not only his arguments about the quality of the images are particularly desingenious but his attitude was arrogant and rude, e.g. in eliminating my comments from his talk page. Can you please help? Alvesgaspar (talk) 19:46, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

Current image

Alvesgaspar's image

The images in question

• Speedy close:This individual is apparently interested in putting up his own work and is upset that the quality of his photo is questioned.. Per WP:BURDEN, WP:3RR and other policies, this individual had the affirmative obligation to support his views and the affirmative obligation to leave the status quo in place until the situation was resolved. I told this individual to discuss at talk, instead he reverted and edit-warred over his own image. I took the issue to the talk page of that article and instead he reports the situation here instead of discussing. This is a GA-class article, so changes have a higher level of scrutiny. As I explained there, first he inserts two images of the same horse, then he reinserts the first, for the lead image, but that animal is poorly-posed, fat, standing "butt-high" (which could either be a bad stance or a serious conformation flaw) and, had he chosen to discuss instead of going here, I would have also explained that images, when possible, need to be looking "into" the article. The reality of nice lighting and photographic resolution does not take away from the problem that the quality of the animal is not an improvement over what was there. (Frankly, looking at the Commons cat, there are no "good" images for the lead, to find a left-facing, properly posed, full-body, representative image is not easy. Montanabw^(talk) 19:59, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

  Comment: I am putting up the two images in question. The current image (dark gray) is not great, but it's a side shot, shows basic breed conformation (strong, arched neck, powerful hindquarters, convex profile), facing "into" the article, and the horse has been groomed. The image of Alvesgaspar's (the light gray) is an ill-groomed animal (dirty feet, unkempt mane and tail) shot from behind, which causes some distortion, the horse looks like it has weak hindquarters, the characteristic arched neck is not evident, the horse is too fat (I initially thought it was pregnant, but there appear to be genitals visible, so I guess it's not a mare, after all), it has more leg conformation flaws than the dark gray, and so on. The point, though, is that this is a talk page discussion per WP:BRD, and not one for this drama board, except per this, the other user seems to have no interest in discussing. So here we are. Montanabw^(talk) 20:13, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

• Dirty feet, unkempt mane and tail ? Can you please look better, this time opening the image in full resolution? The animal had just been combed (in the mane and tail) and his feet cleaned! Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:45, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

• Manure stains all over his body, mane is ragged and uneven, there are dreadlocks in his tail, and clearly with moisture about halfway up the hooves (and his toes are a bit too long, the angles are off). Maybe someone knocked off the chunks, but this horse is very dirty. Montanabw^(talk) 23:41, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

•  Comment: Eliminating comments from your talk page is completely acceptable as per WP:OWNTALK. Discussion regarding whether or not your picture was suitable for the article belongs on the talk page. You refused to gain consensus and demanded "a better justification" [97] without providing a counterarguement. Pishcal (talk) 20:15, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

• Eliminating comments from your talk page (with a "go away") after someone has just written a message is rude and hardly accepted among educated editors (I would rather say among educated people). My counter argument for Montanabw comment about the one fat poorly-posed image (what the hell does this mean?) was the superior image quality of the new leading image, as I have more than once argued. Now I understand that he is probably referring to a fat horse, not a fat image, but this happens after he has reverted my edit three times. Nowhere in his comments I see the will to engage in a civilized discussion. On the contrary, he apparently was acting as if he were the owner of the artcile. By the way, why can't a article about the Lusitano horse depict a overweighted animal or a horse head? Just because an editor says so? Alvesgaspar (talk) 20:41, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

• Please remember to remain civil and refrain from any personal attacks. You claim that Alvesgaspar does not have the intention of engaging in a civilized discussion, but it is you who ignored his requests [98] [99] [100] to discuss the matter on the talk page, instead deciding to go straight to AN3. Pishcal (talk) 20:58, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

• Can you please point to where I engaged in personall attacks? The correct thing for Montanabw to do, if he really wanted to discuss the subject, would be to go straight to the talk page before he first reverted my edit. Alvesgaspar (talk) 21:12, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

• IN this case WP:BRD governs. The person attempting to insert new material ALWAYS (unless copyvio or BLP vio) has the burden of justifying its inclusion. @Pishcal:, you have not looked at the proper sequence:

1. On December 8, Alvesgaspar inserts this horrifying image of a thin, muddy, neglected animal with the edit summary, "better picture." It's not.
2. Two edits later, Alvesgaspar inserts two of his own photos, arguably slightly better ones, into a GA-class article that is already a touch image-heavy, both apparently of the same animal, the head shot in such a fashion as to sandwich text (and in the wrong place for a head shot, plus the photo is not very appealing for a number of reasons). The body shot replaces the thin horse with a fat one.
3. On December 9, I do a "good faith" AGF revert, (1x) with edit summary "Don't need two photos of the same horse, and lead photo not much of an improvement over the other."
4. Alvesgaspar restores his photo on December 10, early in the day (about 2am my time) with discussion to make his case continuing via edit summary.
5. Alvesgaspar goes to my talk AFTER he edit-wars to restore his image!
6. I told Alvesgaspar to take it to article talk. (11:42 my time)
7. Then I restore the status quo image about 10 minutes later. (2x) (11:55 my time) I open the talk page window to discuss, and get distracted by some RL work, not returning until my lunch break.
8. Alvesgaspar reverts four minutes later at 11:59 my time with a snotty "you take it to talk page" comment.
9. 12:12 my time I see the revert realize I hadn't saved my ARTICLE talk comment and do so. (
10. simultaneously to that edit at article talk, Alvesgaspar tells me it's MY job to go to talk, failing to understand that per WP:BRD, he carries the burden, particularly for a GA-class article. He threatens me with 3RR (when it's the 4th edit that triggers the block)
11. I revert him again a minute later, (3x) telling HIM to stop edit-warring.
12. I am also frustrated that this individual refuses to go to article talk, and ask him to leave my talk page.
13. he reports me to ANI at 12:46 my time, not even seeing the post at article talk and refusing to discuss.
14. then posts at article talk at 12:51, saying a rude "too late" to me.
15. and posts to my talk about the same time.

Therefore, my position is as follows:

1. This is a GA-class article.
2. Per BRD, he was bold, I reverted AGF
3. He edit-wars to restore image and then asks me to explain
4. I restored status quo, again AGF explaining via edit summary the problems with the image, and request he take the issue to article talk.
5. He continues to edit-war to restore his image, and we have a discussion via edit summaries
6. I get the issue to the article talk (even though it is not my job to initiate discussion per BRD)
7. At the same time, he starts threatening me on my talk and then reports me to ANI
8. It is common that unless there is a BLP or copyvio concern, the status quo is maintained until the person seeking to change the article meets their burden to justify it.
9. Therefore, particularly as this IS a GA, it was Alvesgaspar's duty to not edit-war and to accept the status quo until the issue was resolved. Montanabw^(talk) 23:11, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

• Warned. Both editors (Alvesgaspar and Montanabw) reverted three times over the image. Both editors are warned that nothing they've said here would justify edit warring and that they may be blocked without notice if they persist in disrupting the article. BTW, this is not the place for extended discussion of the content dispute, and, @Alvesgaspar, Montanabw is entitled to remove your comments from his talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:42, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

• Sorry Bbb23, that is not true: I reverted two times, not three. Alvesgaspar (talk) 12:49, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

• Nope, when you changed the image on December 9, that was a revert. You didn't add a new image to the article. You replaced one image with another. That is a revert per the policy definition.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:53, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

• @ Bbb23 -- Noppe, I inserted two pictures in the text, one of them replacing the leading picture. That is my usual activity in Wikipedia :). By the way, can you please revert the article to the point before the reverts began? A discussion has been started in the talk page. Alvesgaspar (talk) 12:58, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

• You miss the point. You inserted an image into the body of the article. That was not a revert. You replaced the picture in the infobox. That was a revert. And to answer your question, no, I'm not restoring the article back to your version.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:09, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

• @ Bbb23 -- Sorry but you make no sense to me. To revert means to return, to restore or to put back to an earlier state. That is certainly not what I did. Following your interpretation, any change in an article (a paragraph, a phrase, a word, a picture) is a revert, which is irrational. This is an important point in the present discussion and should be fully clarified in the name of fairness (maybe asking the opinion of another admin?) Alvesgaspar (talk) 14:00, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

• What the word "revert" means in the English sense is immaterial. Per WP:3RR, a revert is defined as "An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert." Your edit removed an image from the article, which obviously undid some other editor's action (the one who put it there). If you're going to edit tendentiously as here, you should familiarize yourself more with the applicable policies. All that said, most changes to articles are not reported. They are just part of content building. However, when an initial revert becomes a battle, you'd better count that first change.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:14, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

• @ Bbb23 Thanks for your explanations. I believe that your interpretation is the normal practise here, but that is not what is written in WP:3RR. The first time, I did not undo what other editors have done: I have just changed by replacing one picture and adding another one. Thus I confess myself defeated (by your bit, not your arguments) but not convinced, and suggest that the text in WP:3RR is changed as to reflect the usual practise. It would be also a sensitive and elegant gesture to ask the opinion of other admins on this. Alvesgaspar (talk) 18:13, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

• Bbb23 is right. You're wrong. In my opinion, what you believe is the usual practise, is not. Nevertheless, this noticeboard is not the appropriate place to clarify your questions about policy. You could suggest changes to the 3RR page in the talk page associated with the policy page. If you need any assistance in that, do leave a note on my talk page. Best. Wifione ^Message 20:07, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

The issue has gone back to talk, we shall discuss further. Frankly, if Alvesgaspar can get new and better images of the horse in question, it is possible that a better image could yet be provided to replace the current lead image, which is, admittedly, not perfect, either.

Mostly I'm just writing this here for the record, so that if he does this again and we look back at this report, it'll show that he was warned on both his talk page and the article talk page and given warnings about a potential block, but kept edit warring.

The edit history shows that from 11 September 2014‎ there have been 27 edits to the page 25 of those have involved user:Hughey of which only two have not been reverts of reverts made by four other editors' reverting Hughey's edits.

user:Hughey behaviour does not seem to have altered one jot in response to the a previous block because of edit warring on this page. Since the block ended Hughey has made five reverts of three other editor revering Hughey's reverts. Discussion by Hughey on the talk page has been restricted to one comment "The definition of indenture is as contract, these people agreed to nothing.

Look, there's a disagreement. Therefore, instead of turning it into a test of will, or patience, you need to discuss it and come to some kind of consensus before changing it again. I'm not going to block you right now, but you should know that if you revert to your prefered version again, before getting consensus to do so, I'll block you for two months. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:09, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

Wotton House (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

It seems more than a coincidence that Hughey waits 20 minutes after commenting here, removes the notice of this section placed on user talk:Hughey by me, and less than 10 minutes later reverted an edit using Twinkle I had made to Wotton House. This was the last page I had edited and a page Hughey has never edited before. The revert edit made by Hughey was self reverted within a minute. However the chances are more than 4 million to one that this was not a case of stalking. I think is shows a worrying threatening battle ground mentality. I think that this behaviour ought to be taken into account here as I was the one who brought this charge of edit-warring and the hounding seems to be directly related to it. Luckily I am an old hand (and so I have seen worse), but for a less experienced editor this could be very threatening behaviour. -- PBS (talk) 13:26, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

PBS I am not stalking you. Yes, you are an old hand at this. I am considering your other edits in response to your now, incessant attacks on me. I did not have enough time to put an argument together before you reported me and forced me into this argument on this page. I think that it is you who is Wikihounding. There are at least two other editors who were coming to agree with my edits (User 64.134.224.227 & User:Jdorney).

None of us have completely covered ourselves in glory, but Hughey's account of the situation is not totally accurate; they have also reverted Dhtwiki a few times, and turned up on my talk page to claim to be about to report me for edit warring, which seems to have a certain pot/kettle element. Pinkbeast (talk) 15:31, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Now we are getting somewhere. I turned up as you say, because it is the warning part for a report (required). I think looking back over the warring, that Pinkbeast and I could have worked this out, if PBS would have just reported and then backed off. I fat fingered the PBS page, while looking at their history, my bad Hughey (talk) 18:07, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Result: Warned. In spite of his above assurances, it is still unclear whether User:Hughey perceives the problems with his edits. But if he continues to revert (prior to consensus) or continues to pursue other editors via their contribution history (as in reverting PBS's change at Wotton House), a block is sure to follow.

• Result: Warned for long-term edit warring. User:Ramiericson appears to be a supporter of the cause of Mufaddal Saifuddin. There is a succession controversy which is documented in an entire article at 53rd Syedna succession controversy (Dawoodi Bohra). Revert warring to declare your guy to be the winner is POV-pushing and disruptive editing. The next time Ramiericson makes a unilateral edit in favor of Mufaddai Saifuddin, without getting consensus first, he may be blocked without further notice. Since Ramiericson is already alerted under WP:ARBIPA he may be banned from the topic of the Dawoodi Bohra by any administrator if he shows himself unable to edit neutrally.

TV shows that have been made and produced by the country that made them should have the release dates, not from the country that first released regardless of Wikipedia rules and what Salvidrim! says.

• I'll reply at length when I get home, but yes, I reverted multiple times in the face of a refusal to discuss on the talk page despite my attempts, as would be required by WP:BRD. I am more than happy to engage in dispute resolution if the reverter wishes to present a policy-anchored case for reversion. ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 23:33, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

• I think TV shows made in either US, UK, Canada, France and such should have their release dates, not by the country where a certain episode first aired. BattleshipMan (talk) 01:38, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

• I'm glad that we're discussing it (on the article talk page) and am happy to stop reverting until we're done talking it out. :) ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 01:56, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

• Declined. Salvidrim!, refusal to discuss changes per BRD is not a justification for edit warring. That said, the list of reverts by the filer is incorrect. Assuming the first change is a revert, Salvidrim! is at three and has not breached WP:3RR. BattleshipMan, Wikipedia rules are important. You can't just snub your nose at them because you don't like them. In any event, both editors are advised to return to the Talk page. If that doesn't resolve the dispute, there are other dispute resolution mechanisms available. Continued disruption to the article may be met with blocks.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:49, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

• I admit I may have acted less than ideally and apologize for it, if that helps. I agree that edit warring is not a constructive part of dispute resolution. Technically, I made the edit on Dec. 10th, reverted the removal a first time on Dec. 11th, then a second time on Dec. 12nd, so I guess that'd only be two reverts? But still, it's not about the count, it's about the behaviour, and reverting a revert is plainly never a good idea. ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 01:56, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

• You're sort of right, and I'm wrong (not sorta). Your first revert, if one counts it, was on December 11. Your next revert was also on December 11. Your third revert was on December 12, and outside the 24-hour window of the first, so you were at two reverts for the purpose of WP:3RR. Perhaps you think it's December 10 because you're not using UTC?--Bbb23 (talk) 02:04, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

• Ah, yea, got local time enabled (UTC-5). And I'm embarrassed to admit I've never quite had the occasion to figure our whether an edit that adds content for the first time is considered "a revert" for the purposes of 3RR anyways. :) ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 02:11, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

• You're not alone on the first revert business. Technically, any change to the article constitutes a revert. The only thing that doesn't is when you add brand new material to an article. However, an admin has discretion as to whether to count an edit as revert, even if it's not the first. For example, if you correct a spelling, no one would count that as a revert despite the fact that it's a change. In your first edit, you changed the release dates and added sources. The source additions, by themselves, would not count as a revert. However, the release date change could if an admin chose to count it. Some editors want all of this spelled out in the policy, but that would be very difficult as the whole idea of discretion is to give admins leeway, and not every admin will agree (nothing new); nor will the parameters of the discretion be easy to explain. I hope that helps more than it muddies the waters, but it's a complicated issue.--Bbb23 (talk) 02:39, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

You and I both know some Wikipedia policies are never good or right at times. I do think that TV shows that are made and produced from certain countries should have episode airdates, rather than when it first aired from a different that doesn't really produce it. BattleshipMan (talk) 02:16, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

I'm not sure how you know what I know. I may have a personal view as to a policy, but my role is to enforce policy whether I agree with it or not. Guidelines are a little different. Although there may be a presumption that a guideline should be followed, it may be overriden on a case-by-case basis if there's a clear consensus to do so.--Bbb23 (talk) 02:40, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

I think there should be a consensus to have TV shows that are made and produced by a certain country to have their release dates, not from the earliest one from a different country because shows from the US, UK or Canada should have their own release dates.

Ryulong has consistently reverted edits that include "Sweden" in the leg four header of this article. His contention is that the show says 8 countries (which rules out Sweden being visited), however the consensus on the talk page has been to include it in the country county + put it in the header. This is a case of edit warring, not 3RR. He has not reverted against a majority/consensus on the talk page. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 02:55, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

As per my edit summary (the 5th diff), tonight's broadcast explicitly stated something that we were waiting to be said to prove a point of contention on the talk page. Additionally, there is no 3RR violation as the first 4 diffs are from November 17/18, nearly 4 weeks ago, rather than evidence of ongoing disruptive editing of the article. This is a content dispute that Sportsfan 1234 has been pursuing for several months now since the ambiguity of this fact came up 2 months ago after a television broadcast.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:00, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:

Between September 10 and December 8 Fountains of Bryn Mawr and I, with the help of Wtshymanski, rewrote the "Electrical conduction" section of the article which consisted of unsourced WP:FRINGE WP:OR theories relating to Nikola Tesla by editor GLPeterson ( GPeterson ), merging it into a History section, with constant reversions by GLPeterson. Repeated invitations to discuss it on the article Talk page and his personal Talk page were ignored, except for a conversation repeating quotes from the article. Instead he continually reverted our edits, and after the rewrite has repeatedly tried to reinsert the unsourced material against consensus of four editors: Fountains of Bryn Mawr, Chetvorno, Wtshymanski, and Roches. He seems to have a history of WP:OWNing the section. Fountains of Bryn Mawr lodged a ANI complaint against him which details similar disruptive editing and WP:POVPUSHing his unsourced Tesla material at several other articles, and there is also an WP:FTN complaint about his material. --Chetvorno^TALK 19:55, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

• Comment In none of your diffs has he actually breached WP:3RR. Which makes this a content dispute. _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 19:59, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
  • I noticed GLPeterson ran the clock down between RV#1 and RV#4 reverting a forth time exactly 24hrs and 7min after the first. The editor also reverted 3 times, without any participation on the talk page, after the ANI complaint (where he was asked again to please to please refrain from continued disruptive editing). We are at "File another ANI report" on the WP:DISRUPT flow chart, or at "file a report at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring" depending if this is taken as WP:GAMING. If we need to be technical then this should be moved to ANI. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 21:28, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
  • BTW the DIFFS in this report seem to be a little off, here is the borderline 3RR violation diffdiffdiffdiff. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 22:00, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

There are two sets of borderline 3RR violations. The second one in the list, (diff, 18:59 Dec 11) is followed by four reverts, the last at diff, 19:05 Dec 12, or 24 hours 6 minutes after.

The content is sourced mostly to primary sources written by Tesla and to 19th century publications, neither of which can be used without WP:OR or WP:SYNTH. It is written with non-standard terminology. There does not appear to be a good-faith desire to improve this content, for example by standardizing the terms used. Calling it a content dispute may not be quite accurate, because the content is indisputably inappropriate for a science and technology article. Roches (talk) 01:24, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

I should much like to co-operate with Anglicanus but his constant reversions (under the MOS banner) are making productive editing, ie the addition of extra relevant info, very difficult. Not being au fait with all correct terminology & styles is quite understandable - I should know not being infallible myself! Please advise how to resolve - many thanks Mabelina Mabelina (talk) 10:37, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:

Emphatik is a new to Wikipedia and is obviously only here to disrupt Wikipedia and promote fringe topics. {{Inappropriate comment |action=remove |reason=WP:BLP violation |comment=He is trying to make the Nibiru promotor Nancy Lieder look sane. His actions need to be stopped. He should be banned from Wikipedia, but obviously the 1st step is a block for edit warring with multiple established editors. -- Kheider (talk) 13:36, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

I've removed your BLP violation regarding the subject of the dispute. Please do not label people with such terms again. Thank you, only (talk) 13:45, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Sorry. my post didn't save. Here it is again-

I was removing libel in accordance with wiki's policy WP:ALIVE. Yet Kheider & serendipodous keep inserting it back. Wiki's policy says that anyone re-inderting libel should be blocked. Instead Kheider edit wars with me & then reports me. While I have been more than accommodating. Please see article's history page & talk page; as well as my talk page to show you they realize it doesn't meet wiki's policy on bio of living persons WP:ALIVE. Now they repeatedly re-insert libel, while saying that i'm edit warring. Isn't this cyber-bullying? Emphatik (talk) 13:56, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

P.s: And now Kheider has gone and inserted libel again. Emphatik (talk) 13:56, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Ironically you're both well in breach of 3RR by now. _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 13:59, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, didnt know discussion was going on here. Fortuna, doesn't the 3 rr rule say taking libel off, in keeping with the "biography of living persons" is excused. (I explained why this is in the article's talk page). I just want to be clear. I had said in the talk page that Lieder claims that she has implants in the brain (impossible if you think of the scarring and healing required to recover) & that she said the world would end in 2003 (it's 2014/15 now). Clearly these things go miles to convey that she's untethered from reality. And so the point Kheider & Serendipodous wants to make is already very clear, anyways. why do character assassinations? cheers Emphatik (talk) 14:45, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

• Page protected – there appears to be a content dispute on the page. Consider dispute resolution. Like Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi says, both sides are breaching here. I've locked this page for a week. Please settle this on the talk page and/or seek outside input over this next week before the page is unprotected. only (talk) 14:03, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

I have only made 3 reverts to the page and we have multiple sources that she killed her dog. I still request that Emphatik be blocked for edit warring. -- Kheider (talk) 14:06, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Regardless of how many reverts you made, both sides are still clearly edit warring. 3RR is not the hard and fast line; there's clear edit warring going on on both sides of this dispute. I've protected the page; no one is being blocked here because the page protection suffices to prevent further edit warring. only (talk) 14:08, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

You are not helping the Cosmophobia issues on the internet. I guess this just one of those days that I have to be ashamed to be an editor of Wikipedia. -- Kheider (talk) 14:11, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Well I'm sorry you feel "ashamed", but I am not trying to help either side here. I'm trying to prevent an edit war by utilizing the tools we have available through protection. Again, discuss and find consensus regarding this on the talk page. We're done here. only (talk) 14:17, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Then the fringe editor has won. Emphatik was unable to establish any consensus on the talk page and JonRichfield even called him a troll. Congratulations Wikipedia! -- Kheider (talk) 14:22, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

The point that Only was making is exactly that the TP, and DR, is the place for this. And I'm not sure calling editors troll is particularly helpful- WP:AGF, and all that. _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 14:27, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

You obvious are not use to editing fringe topics on Wikipedia. This is not the first edit war that Emphatik has recently started. He is successfully gaming the system. -- Kheider (talk) 14:36, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Hey, I wasn't aware of the rule the first time. And I explained the misunderstanding that took place to you in the talk page. This time, I explained in detail how you were not in keeping with WP:ALIVE. I don't know what else to do. Im tying to be as courteous as I can & de-escalate the situation. cheers Emphatik (talk) 14:50, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [171] (the section '"Subject to confirmation"/"Provisional"')

Comments:

Prisonermonkeys, who has previously been blocked for edit warring three times since October (11 Oct 2014 / 1 Nov 2014 / 14 Nov 2014), has continued to edit war. The article in question has two points, one constructor entry and one Grand Prix, that are labeled "subject to confirmation" and "provisional" respectively. Prisonermonkeys believed that this constituted a violation of WP:WEASEL when in fact the FIA (the organising body) has so far declared these conditionals to be the most recent confirmation, so me, Tvx1, Burgring and Twirlypen have stated that it is clearly not a case of WEASEL, which Prisonermonkeys does not understand. To this effect, Prisonermonkeys, made four reversions (above) in just over five hours (no-one else violated 3RR). Following the second pair of reversions, Prisonermonkeys then decided to go onto the talk page to re-assert his stance, which was quickly rejected. Just over three hours after breeching 4RR, Prisonermonkeys then proceeded to add the notes back onto the page (using four edits, a perfectly legitimate set of edits). Prisonermonkeys claims (fairly) that he could not revert the pair of edits together, and feels that he only made two reversions (a view that the precise wording of 3RR disagrees with).

What is worse is that Prisonermonkeys is claiming that we are not applying WP:AGF and that we should assume his four edit summaries of 'That feels like WP:WEASEL', 'Inferred by TBA status', 'To me, this says "they're on the entry list, but we don't really believe it will happen"' and 'Same as before' mean he actually wanted to change the style of the footnote, which I simply can't see. His edit to include the footnote was proceeded by a talk page message that started with 'I've modified it to be as unobtrusive as possible.' These to be does not fall in line with his story of 'I wanted to change the footnotes', nor does his phone's inability to load editing pages properly, as his four edits to include the footnotes took just three minutes to achieve. He makes absolutely no attempt to accept his actions were wrong or to admit to what is clearly the truth. —Gyaro–Maguus— 20:11, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

User is flat-out failing to comprehend that they are committing BLP violations, and is also flat-out failing to stop their contentious editing and wait for the talk page discussion to reach a consensus.

• What a load of baloney. Your edits are not well-referenced (copyright violations of the same video on multiple sites being used as a reference for example), and they are heavily centering around your own translation, which is disputed by two separate editors who do understand Urdu. Even if you are right, then you are still violating BLP and every procedure in the book by trying to insist that he is most notable for what he has been accused of - which is utterly false.

Additional final warning: [177] JohnBlackburne^words_deeds 16:16, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

• Blocked – for a period of 24 hours. John, could you please open up talk page discussions and invite the editor over to the talk page too? And maybe suggest to Beetstra to be also aware of WP:3RR, which he has technically broken. But I'm ready to infinitely overlook that in the case of spam links. Just saying as a matter of caution. Wifione ^Message 17:27, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Note, I considered this getting close to abuse of Wikipedia - the editor has a very strong focus on one subject, though I do not see statements from this editor in line to what our terms of use proscribe, and the user is .. circumventing the spam blacklist - I did not look closer at this yet (considering to have a look at the other edits regarding this), but start to consider a block for that. --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 18:42, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

I've just spotted Qed237 is involved in this as well, just as much as HW, so he should be considered as well as above. This may need escalating to ANI, due to the nubmer of people involved, but I'll leave it down to the reviewing admin's discretion. --Mdann52talk to me! 17:16, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

This is absolute crap, and User:Mdann52 deserves to be sanctioned for bringing it. There is no doubt that the notability tags on these articles were inappropriately removed. Neither of these BLPs includes independent, reliable sourcing satisfying BLP/RS requirements. Neither includes a claim to notability under PORNBIO, the applicable SNG (the tinfoil trophies they claim for "scene" awards don't count toward notability per the express and eminently clear language of the SNG).

But, of course, this notice is procedurally invalid. No attempt to discuss. No prior warning. And as is obvious to any competent, good faith editor, 2 reverts on two different articles don't amount to a 3RR violation. Just more trumped-up harassment. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 17:39, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

@Hullaballoo Wolfowitz: edit warring ≠ 3RR violation; 3RR is a brightline rule, not a right. Whether the tags are valid or not, there has been edit warring, they have not been discussed by either party, and that is the issue here. If you think my actions are inappropriate, feel free to take it to ANI. In any case, I have much better things to do than harass people. --Mdann52talk to me! 17:42, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

(ec)Bullshit. I discussed, for example, here [183] and here [184] and here [185]. You didn't discuss before opening this or related discussions, and you ignored my attempts to open substantive discussion. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 18:08, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

It looks like open season here. _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 17:43, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

(edit conflict) It looks like clear edit warring (and/or 3RRing) here. Removing/adding templates,no matter of their validity, without discussing it per WP:BRD, WP:EW or WP:3RR. And stating that the reporter to be sanctioned is just bollocks, AN/foo might be known for boomeranging a lot, but this is a clear cut case of edit warring. (t) Josve05a (c) 17:49, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

(ec)You're just wrong. Note that I opened multiple discussions, which Mdann ignored; Mdann did not follow convention/practice here or at ANI; and that the tag removals, which were obviously contradicted by the applicable SNG, at least border on the vandalous/malicious, and at best show a lack of WP:COMPETENCE. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 18:08, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Hullaballoo, you made a PROD nomination of Renae Cruz back in April 2014 but another editor removed the PROD. If you still think the article lacks notability, wouldn't it be normal to take it to AfD and abide by the consensus there? Your repeated additions of notability tags do not seem to be part of a good faith effort to reach an agreed-on result. EdJohnston (talk) 17:55, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

First of all, I didn't add the tags initially. {[User:Redban]] put the tags on. Redban is a clumsy, and probably overzealous new editor, and some of his tagging has been lousy, but it's nowhere near as inaccurate as some editors involved in the overall dispute have claimed. I've looked at some of the tags, and where the tagging is accurate, restored it. In each of the BLPs where I restored the tags, there was no significant independent reliable sourcing, in many cases no reliable sourcing at all, and no credible claim to meeting the specific criteria of PORNBIO. (To the extent there's been an effort made to justify tag removal here, it uniformly rests on ignoring recent tightening up of PORNBIO, despite the overwhelming community support for the revisions).

I've nominated dozens of porn BLPs for AFD or PROD this year, with a very high accuracy rate. This has made me target for all sorts of harassment, on- and off-wiki, and the amount of support one gets from most of the administrative community for enforcing BLP and rules against promotional is vanishingly low. When I'm sick and tired of being treated like dirt, despite having 65,000 edits, done more BLP cleanup and improvement than 99.9% of the editors here, and having poured immense amounts of time into dealing with some of the most malicious folks out there trying to use Wikipedia to smear, you have no right to tell me I can't pull back. Suggesting I'm somehow deficient in good faith is appalling, and you should be ashamed of that comment. A few months ago, in an AFD discussion, an editor decided to cast aspersions, if not outright accusations, of racism against me (and others, but I was the main target).[186] Two admins characterized those comments as "appalling" bad faith. What was done about? Nothing. Not one thing. Not one bloody fucking thing. And that tolerance of atrocious misconduct has lead to escalation of misbehavior and ongoing harassment of me and other editors, of which this specious complaint is just a minor example. No More Mr Nice Wolfowitz (talk) 19:11, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

I've removed the tags. The individuals are either notable, or they're not. If they're not, then take the article to WP:AFD. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 18:15, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

I'd like to offer a couple of observations. First off, I'll concur that HW puts in a tremendous amount of effort into BLP articles and has accomplished an impressive amount of "cleanup" with regard to the removal of vandalism and other "clutter". That said, as my 2nd point, I'd like offer that much of his perspective on content hinges enormously on the phrase "significant independent reliable sourcing" and his personal interpretation of it. He is very quick to revert content additions if the source is not acceptable. In my opinion, HW is somewhat jaded when it comes to a lot of content additions and often treats them as "spam", "trivia", "gossip", or "employee of the month awards" (for sourced, but non-Notable awards) without regard for the context to the subject. Again, these are just my observations, but for some reason HW and I interact fairly often. --Scalhotrod (Talk) ☮ღ☺ 00:28, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

I remain baffled by the argument that when a policy calls for content to be removed "immediately" and "without waiting got discussion", one should not act quickly. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 20:10, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

clearly this isn't clear cut enough. I'm closing as no vio. Spartaz ^Humbug! 01:00, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

I'd argue there was edit warring spread over multiple pages, and there was enough evidence of edit warring, but I can see your viewpoint on this as well. --Mdann52talk to me! 08:24, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:

spshu Adds and continues to readd false so-called "source" materials, which are false because even though several Saturday morning cartoons did sadly disappear from TV when One Magnificent Morning started, not all of them did. Ones that were specifically only on cable TV and satellite TV didn't disappear, and even if this were only about commercial broadcast TV, then even those didn't disappear completely. There are still some cartoons on NBC Kids (by Sprout Network), for example. It's not all a cartoon block, but cartoons are still there on Saturday mornings. But the false sources make inaccurate claims like "Saturday morning cartoons are no more" and "R.I.P., Saturday morning cartoons." So, even with edit-warring aside, this would still be a report about posting inaccurate "sources."

• Declined No violation. Dear IP, the article is protected. Get an account, get autoconfirmed, then use verifiable and reliable sources to place your statement within the article WITH a neutral point of view. If you have a content issue, try dispute resolution. Thanks. Wifione ^Message 10:39, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

@Wifione: I understand that the article is protected, but that's not the point. An autoconfirmed user already *has* tried removing those inaccurate sources from the article. But look at all the reverts that spshu made, yet he's not being accused of edit-warring even though the other editors were. Why not? So are you saying that it's "not edit-warring" if you, the admin., agree with what was repeatedly added to or otherwise repeatedly reverted in the article? Why should it only be considered "edit-warring" for one editor rather than both (according to you), even though the edit-warring warning even says something about "even if you are correct," and other admins even say things like "it doesn't matter if you're correct or not; it's still edit-warring"?

75.162.212.197 (talk) 21:55, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

• Comment: Dear ip, the auto-confirmed user was blocked because the said auto-confirmed user was not discussing changes on the talk page of the article. My suggestion would be, try discussing the content issue on the talk page of the article as Spshu is the one who is following an appropriate WP:BRD cycle. Spshu has been awaiting responses on the talk page of the article since the start of this month. Proceed to the talk page and discuss the issue there, rather than repeatedly reverting. If discussions don't lead to resolution, follow dispute resolution. Wifione ^Message 11:16, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks, user:Wifione, for your response. Well you're saying that spshu has been doing BRD--a while back, anyway. I can see that. But not now, though. Even so, he's been edit-warring too. If someone is doing BRD but still keeps on reverting and reverting, does that not still count as edit-warring? So if a writer posts a comment to the talk page and then reverts, that's "not edit-warring"? How about when he keeps reverting while not still discussing? Doesn't that then still become edit-warring for him? If not, then why not? And if I were the i.p. who had been discussing with spshu before, but then kept reverting and reverting like he is, would I also get a pass from being accused of edit-warring just because I had been discussing in the past, or would there be some difference? And if so, then what would that supposed "difference" have been?

When trying to talk the issue out on the user talk page he removed it. User can't provide any reason why he is removing the comment other than "it is irrelevant", but he can't explain why it would be irrelevant. It is clear that the user is trying to protect Saleen's reputation. David Weiner and his W-Net fund are behind Saleen going public as per Saleen S1 SEC filling: http://www.nasdaq.com/markets/ipos/filing.ashx?filingid=7747636 and he is a marijuana pennystock financier as confirmed by the citations I provided which keep getting removed.

Comments:

• Page has been fully-protected and a discussion (of sorts) is underway on the talkpage. If 3RR blocks are being given out, then all of the involved parties will probably need blocking, since I'm fairly sure they all violated the rule (in the filer's case, I think their revert count has actually exceeded the double figure mark...) The IP above is giving quite a poor representation of the topic, as they are deliberately misrepresenting Solo12gauge's position. The IPs trying to edit-war the information in haven't ever actually provided a source that verifies their claims, are clearly pushing agendas in their edit summaries (even a drunken toad could see that), and Solo12gauge clearly has elaborated on the "irrelevant" comment in the edit summaries at the very least.
