Not giving an explanation of the edit does not give justification for one person to repeatedly remove someone else's edits. It seems nobody is allowed to touch this page which completely goes against the whole point of this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MAXXII12 (talkcontribs) 01:06, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

User is ignoring this clear message. Page has been a target for this type of disruptive behaviour before to take this message out. Stop! DO NOT remove the following sourced information without first contributing to the discussion on the article's talk page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Angels_(Robbie_Williams_song) User is right you can remove stuff without justification normally, however they are ignoring the above message and WP:BRD. NZFC(talk) 02:28, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

While this does nothing to defend the actions of MAXXII12, it is worth noting that NZ Footballs Conscience also reverted the article four times in a space of about 2.5 hours.

They are both just as guilty as each other. This isn't a case of one editor removing blatant vandalism or a major BLP issue. It's just two editors who both reverted 4 times within 24 hours.

Also

On the Jake Zyrus article, NZ Footballs Conscience has just made his 4th revert within 25 hours and 36 minutes, which seems like gaming the system and when combined with the above reverts pretty unacceptable.

Based on comments, I will be happy to move this to another 3RR report, or keep it here. Spacecowboy420 (talk) 07:01, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks Spacecowboy. In the Robbie Williams article, the user is not even trying to take part in WP:BRD. In this other one, I hadn't realised I had reverted four times but I will take the fact that I have reverted too many times in that one. What I will point out, is neither IP or Spacecowboy gained consensus before enforcing their point of view, so that discussion has been taken to Wikipedia:No_original_research/Noticeboard. If I get banned for the reverts, I understand that. But other parties haven't engaged in proper discussion either. NZFC(talk) 07:17, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
Unfortunately, content disputes do not allow people to edit war. The fact that you made this report shows that you are fully aware of the rules regarding edit warring and willing to file reports for other editors who violate that rule, it seems only fair that you follow the same rules and face the same sanctions. Spacecowboy420 (talk) 07:50, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Saying if you want to mae an edit discuss it on my talk page then not attempting to engage in any discussion yourself and then reporting other users is pathtic. It seems what you want goes and thats it nobody else can change this page ever. Embarrassing — Preceding unsigned comment added by MAXXII12 (talkcontribs) 08:37, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

below copy and paste showing that removing edits purely because the person hasn't explained why they have done so. It seems nobody is allowed to edit anything.


Was there any logic behind you undoing this edit of mine? I removed synthesis as per Wikipedia guidelines.

Did you revert me just because I'm editing with an IP? 124.106.137.248 (talk) 16:13, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

No, not because you are an IP but because it doesn't fit WP:MOS. NZFC(talk) 17:54, 14 March 2018 (UTC) I removed "(before his transition)" which part of MOS states that removing that is unacceptable? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.106.137.248 (talk) 18:44, 14 March 2018 (UTC) Sorry looking at wrong thing, you removed content without an explanation and it explains something that is relevant to the reader. NZFC(talk) 19:50, 14 March 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by MAXXII12 (talkcontribs)

MAXXII12 You ignore hidden text put there by someone else saying to discuss it on the talk page first and removed content. There is a whole section in the article that talks about the writers dispute and a lead is supposed to summarise an article. This is what you keep removing. Someone else reverted you last time and I see again that you have removed source content. NZFC(talk) 08:59, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
Hi MAXXII12, I'm the other editor who has recently reverted you on the Angels page (please also note, I'm holding off on reverting your latest identical disruptive edit to the page until this edit warring discussion is resolved). I wasn't going to weigh in on this initially, but I want to clarify in particular that the hidden text you are removing does not ask you to discuss the writers dispute on any individual editor's talk page, but on the Angels article's talk page itself. Please make sure to read the text you are deleting more carefully next time. Additionally, your use of the pejoratives pathetic (rather amusingly misspelled pathtic) and Embarassing above comprises a blatant violation of Wikipedia's policy regarding Personal Attacks. --Jonie148 (talk) 09:17, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


I read the text! I ignored it. I don't need to explain my edits to anyone. People who want to say discuss it on my yalk oage but are unwilling to open discusison themselves then report people are PATHETIC. If they are so keen it is discussed feel free to start the discussion by ststing why you are so against it being removed. Nobody should have the right to decide they own the page and its content especially when so many other people have clearly removed the same thing. Hilarious double standards in the last message. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MAXXII12 (talkcontribs) 10:30, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Yes, Wikipedia is absolutely a collaborative project, and I'm sorry if you feel your edits are being unfairly reverted by me and/or others. I propose that we start a productive discussion here then, as you still seem to be confused about which talk page we're suggesting the discussion should take place on. Subsequently, I'll start by telling you where I stand on the issue. If you watch the following video (goo.gl/gkGcPS) from the linked timestamp for just under twelve minutes, you can hear a recent interview with Robbie Williams, where he discusses the history of the song, and mentions Heffernan's claim to authorship explicitly numerous times (if you select settings > speed > 2 on the Youtube video settings, the relevant portion of the video will take less than 6 minutes to watch). This interview portion, being the recent testimony of the artist himself, is currently the most valid source available on the contested issue of the song's writers. What Williams says in the interview is summarized in the 'Writers' section of the article, meaning that the lead (which as NZ Footballs Conscience mentions in above discussion, is meant to summarize the greater content of the article concisely) only hints that the song's authorship is contested without going into further detail. My intention is not for the page to claim that Heffernan is a co-writer of the song, as such has not been proven, and probably never legally will be (the parties settled out of court), but to summarize and provide details of the debate around his involvement in the songwriting process itself. I therefore feel the lead should hint at the information provided later on in the article regarding writers, but I'm interested to hear your perspective on this, as your edits suggest you strongly disagree. Perhaps a more middle-ground alternative would be to make no reference to the song's writers whatsoever in the article's lead. --Jonie148 (talk) 11:42, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

I would agree if you if the professor was making a normative argument. Rather, here is presenting objective data about admissions rates. You are entitled to your own opinions but not your own facts. To delete factual data about the discriminatory effect of affirmative action policies itself raises the question of bias. Let the facts remain in the article. There are two sides to the issue and you can't selectively edit out the side you disagree with."
  3. 04:42, 16 March 2018 (UTC) "Undid revision 830654147 by EvergreenFir (talk) It is not proper to delete a source because you believe the author may have an opinion or bias. Per WP:IRS: " However, reliable sources are not required to be neutral, unbiased, or objective. Sometimes non-neutral sources are the best possible sources for supporting information about the different viewpoints held on a subject." In any event, if the source was presenting a normative argument (like many of the sources already cited in this particular article), that would be one thing. But here the source is simply providing data in the form of a chart. If you want me to create a lengthy subsection on reverse discrimination against Asian Americans in higher education I will do so, as this is topic of considerable news coverage and available data as set forth in several ongoing lawsuits. I can put the cited material into this context."

NOTE: in fact the above editor reverted my additions to the article several times. I never deleted anything from the article.

User seems to not understand Wikipedia policy (WP:3RR, WP:NOR, WP:RS to be specific). They clearly made 5 undos. But since they have self-reverted, closing with no-action would be acceptable to me. EvergreenFir (talk) 18:24, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
Codebook44 has undone their last change to the article. They state this is an 'undo per policy to go to talk page'. This concession might allow their 3RR violation to be overlooked. Even so, keep in mind that 'reverse racism' should be attributed to people only when sources use that term. Otherwise it's original research. We have a separate article on reverse discrimination which could be a better place for Codebook44 to consider adding their material. EdJohnston (talk) 18:40, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Especially disturbing are you ignoring what scholars say and pushing your POV, and you thinking it is okay to revert edits even without discussing them on the talk page first. YOU are the one violating WP:NOTHERE (what my edit summaries contain I just took from scholars) by accusing me of POV-pushing just because I added an image representative of Israel (see my argument on my talk page discussion with LuigiPotaro69, another antisemite who is also alt-right; Luigi himself is, like Khirurg, violating WP:NOTHERE, accusing me of Jewish propaganda without any evidence other than my edit being something he hates) on the lead, indicating that you are expressing your anti-Israel sentiment here. i should be the one accusing YOU of edit warring for forcing your way that your new edits should remain in place even though they are the one that should be reverted until consensus says otherwise per WP:ONUS.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: See both Talk:Forza Italia (2013)#Anthem and Talk:Forza Italia (2013)#Flag in infobox

Comments:
User keeps edit warring on both Forza Italia articles despite warnings from other users and a personal attempt to tell him on his behaviour constituting violations of WP:EDITWAR and WP:3RR. User fails to engage in any attempt of real discussion; he only tries to impose his view unilaterally (despite having been warned repeteadly and having been told there was no consensus for his edits), even resorting to unpolite and, sometimes, uncivil comments (as seen here or here). Impru20 (talk) 16:35, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

That is not true, actually they are started edit war without any reflection of the discussion at Talk:Forza Italia (2013), where were actual consensus of users to have flag there, as it is normalised by the wikipedia habits, only not to include anthem. --Mujdeda (talk) 16:45, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Removal of a well sourced and referenced negative material of a politician Daniel Biss already reached consensus on talk page. The editor made no attempt to dicsuss on a talk page, opting for a blank removal. Mhym (talk) 17:35, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

1st: [11] 2nd: [12] 3rd: [13]

  • Well, let's count the falsehoods here.
  1. Not "well sourced" material, but rather material sourced to a self-published blog and a site of user-edited content, and thus in violation of our BLP sourcing standards.
  2. Talk page discussion had not covered the BLP problems with the sources (not that local consensus can override BLP standards anyway)
  3. Claim of "no attempt to discuss on talk page" is ignoring, well, this section I started on the talk page about this very matter
Yup, that seems to cover everything. --Nat Gertler (talk) 18:39, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Decline to act this time as there do seem to be concerns over the reliability of the sourcing and 3RR has not been exceeded. But both editors would be strongly advised to defer to the consensus at RSN and not to persist in this edit war. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 21:57, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Edit-warring to get irrelevant material into the article, in spite of having been reverted by multiple other editors, both as this user and as an IP. Because this account is with all probability (per WP:DUCK) the same person as Special:Contributions/2607:FEA8:1C5F:ECA3:A11B:66BB:891C:781F, who made multiple reverts on the same article, since the user account was created just minutes after the IP made their last edits, and continued the IP's edits, adding the same material, so they're at well over four reverts... - Tom | Thomas.W talk 23:21, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

@Libertas et Veritas: can you comment here please? You are on the verge of being blocked on your very first day of editing Wikipedia. Have you stopped edit warring now? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 00:46, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

  • I wasn't aware this rule applied to this page because each edit had to be reviewed before being applied as a permanent change to the article. Furthermore, the user above who reported me has himself violated the rule, as has one other user. I have not added "irrelevant" material whatsoever to the article. The fact he is claiming this is ridiculous. I have made edits to the article supported by authors of the studies mentioned in the article with regards to Cheddar Man. I have also added peer-reviewed, highly accurate and respected scholarly studies to the article's section on the genetic contributions to modern indigenous Britons from prehistoric migratory waves after the Mesolithic period. How can "Thomas" above seriously question me adding scholarly material to a section specifically titled "Genetic change since the Mesolithic" (i.e. Genetic changes after the Mesolithic)? The latest study I included specifically deals with the genetic impact of Bronze Age and Neolithic migrations, and the genetic continuity (and very little change) in modern indigenous Celtic Britons since the Bronze Age.Libertas et Veritas (talk) 01:13, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
The range contributions from Special:Contributions/2607:FEA8:1C5F:ECA3::/64 have many similarities to the work of User:Libertas et Veritas. If Libertas et Veritas is the same person as a prior IP, as suggested above by User:Thomas.W he is continuing the same edit war under two different identities at Cheddar Man. EdJohnston (talk) 01:26, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
Yes, that is my current IP. I created an account. Again, I did not think my edits violated 3RR for Cheddar Man because the article has all edits in a pending review process. It was my mistake. Future edits at the article will be preceded by discussion and mediation on the talk page.Libertas et Veritas (talk) 02:37, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for your response. Please note that 3RR applies no matter how "correct / appropriate" you feel your edits are. I see you have now posted on the talk page. Please do not make the contested edits again until/unless supported by others. I am closing this report now. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:05, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

Gee, how do I report your for edit warring? You are continually deleting well sourced information, for no reason other than trying to enforce a personal POV, which is FACTUALLY UNTRUE!!!! I've sourced the Washington Post, and have even directly copied statements from other wikipedia entries (along with sourcing). If the info is poorly sourced when I include it on one page, you should be going to delete it from other pages. But that's not what you care about. You only care about enforcing a particular POV in once specific instance, despite the fact that it plainly false. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gekaap (talkcontribs) 18:11, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

User:Olonia as well as User:Regia Marina is the same person, not sure if this is legal here but my guess it's not or definitely should not be. I suspect the Special:Contributions/93.144.170.9 is him too judging from the stylistics of the message left on my Talk page. User contributes nothing new, just editing slightly paragraphs and removing perfectly fine references and trying to promote his own personal website instead. As far as I know he is not a renowned historian so not only this unacceptable practice but simply immodest. From his last message he left om my Talk page it is clear he is only here to pick up fights and not to contribute anything productive. After I left a message on his page asking him to stop, he immediately edited the article again. And then again.

Admits he copies and edits out of spite. In response to My message he admits spite. Crook1 (talk) 19:20, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

There are in fact 90 members of the NA, but the first paragraph is about the elections of 88 MPs who are elected differently, than 2 representatives of national minorities, elections of which are explained in the second paragraph of the section.

A cautiously editted information about an alternative name of the key word of this title has been deliberately deleted again and again.

It reflects a new knowlege about this entry word and has its source. Zahhe asked for source, and I showed one. I see no reason why he still blame. Kanguole blamed of its neogism, but he should open his eyes to look and understand, that it is a new knowledge, not a new term to be inserted.

notification [35]

  • Not sure how to respond to all of this (I am relatively new here, been editing for about 2 months). All I can ask is that any user/admin who may want to block me read through Volunteer Marek's posts/edits and it will become pretty clear what is going on here. He exaggerates and literally just makes things up because I am adding factual NPOV/RS information into articles that he disagrees with politically. Other users have backed me up on this claim (if you need to verify that just read through my talk page and other talk pages I have posted on). PZP-003 (talk) 02:04, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
P.S. I am done making any more edits for today (besides here or on talk pages) so I will not be reverting any controversial edits (even though all of the edits I have made are RS and NPOV contributions intended to add balance to articles which are heavily slanted in one direction) for at least the next 24 hours. I never thought that other users would be able to bully and censor editors by constantly (and selectively) saying "take it to talk page for consensus" or "obtain consensus first", but apparently in the age of Trump this kind of thing is allowed to flourish on WP. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PZP-003 (talkcontribs) 02:17, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Uninvolved in the content issues. Have tried to counsel the editor on their UTP and mine, and I've seen no actual evidence that my words have had any effect. Without looking any deeper at the situation, the thing that jumps out at me is I do not "lack competence" above, from an editor with 146 edits. Of course they lack competence, they have 146 edits. I have stressed on both UTPs that it takes years to become even halfway competent, so apparently they didn't believe me. I would like to see them say convincingly that they understand that they do in fact lack competence in virtually every Wikipedia area except the basic operation of their editor of choice. Without that understanding, there is little chance of significant improvement in my view. ―Mandruss  03:38, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Propose site ban.
    • This editor has behaved very badly, and it has not responded to a boatload of guidance and advice (see its talk page). It seems to lack the interest or competence to read Policies and Guidelines. This account is an SPA only interested in POV-pushing edits. I suggest it be banned, and if this user reconsiders and wants to come back with a new ID and a fresh start, good luck next time. SPECIFICO talk 02:23, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

The Previous version reverted to has timestamp 00:55, 19 March 2018 and appears to be a revert of PZP-003's 3rd edit. Did you link the right version or was this an addition followed by 3 reverts? James J. Lambden (talk) 02:44, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Neither article is under discretionary sanctions yet so we won't be talking about topic bans here. Trying to decide between a strong warning or block. Volunteer Marek, the earliest diff was part of two edits - one that added info and one that removed accidentally added info. The content that remained seems to be new, yes? --NeilN talk to me 02:49, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

I'm assuming that by "earliest diff" you mean this one. The content is not new. Rather it's a restoration - a revert - of the same material, just slightly changed in wording. The original content was added here by an account called User:POLITICO. The text was removed by User:Calton here. It was restored, in slightly altered form by PZP-033 in the diff provided. The text under dispute is basically the same - it specifically mentions Bill Kristol and Clinton advisors.
Strangely, even though the original text was added by a different account (and then restored by PZP-033), the person being quoted, Matt Taibbi, was brought up on the talk page by PZP-033, not "POLITICO" [36]. Check user maybe needed.Volunteer Marek (talk) 03:00, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
I see a different sources and different content. POLITICO's (sourced to The Intercept and Rolling Stone) is:
  • Journalist Glenn Greenwald criticized the ASD, calling it "the ultimate union of mainstream Democratic foreign policy officials, and the world's most militant, militaristic, neocons." Matt Taibbi criticized the organization saying they "represent an unpleasantly unsurprising union of neoconservative Iraq war cheerleaders like Bill Kristol and Beltway Democrats like would-be Clinton CIA chief Michael Morell."
PZP-003's (sourced to The Nation) is:
  • Other advisory council members include neoconservative political analyst and commentator William Kristol and Hillary Clinton foreign-policy adviser Jake Sullivan.
James J. Lambden (talk) 03:05, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
James J. Lambden is correct. What Volunteer Marek posted about my edit is untrue. The edit I restored throughout today is not the same edit that a different user POLITICO restored yesterday. Volunteer Marek seems to be obfuscating things again. PZP-003 (talk) 03:07, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
PZP-003, for the purposes of edit warring, the text does not have to be identical. We look for similar content. You understand that, right? For example, "Mary had a little lamb" would be considered the same as "Mary owned a lamb when she was 13.". --NeilN talk to me 03:24, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
I understand that however the 3 edits I reverted today[37] are not the same as the one from yesterday. The one from yesterday[38] dealt with critcism of ASD and the one from today was simple RS info on current advisory board members. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PZP-003 (talkcontribs) 03:29, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
@PZP-003: You've had a pretty rocky start in this area. You say you're done for today. How are you going to change the way you edit tomorrow so we don't end up here again? Will you agree to a voluntary WP:1RR on articles for two weeks? --NeilN talk to me 03:42, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
If Volunteer Marek, SPECIFICO, and several other users I can name (who are all very aggressive and biased with removing NPOV/RS info properly inserted into articles) also agree to it, then I am OK with it. If that is something you are unable to do what are my other options? PZP-003 (talk) 03:55, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
A warning that any more reverts without gaining consensus on the talk pages may result in a block. --NeilN talk to me 03:57, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
What exactly are you saying - that if I revert w/o consensus on ANY article I will be automatically blocked? How long will the block last? The warning on discretionary sanction pages states "You must not make more than one revert per 24 hours to this article". So are you saying that I can't revert even once? That seems extremely harsh if that is what you mean. PZP-003 (talk) 04:09, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
@PZP-003: I'm saying you may be blocked. The admin handling any future reports (and it may be me) will take into account this warning when deciding to block and if so, for how long. There are no options here that will allow you to edit the way you have been doing. If you don't want to accept any solution that will curtail your reverts, there's always the option of a block. --NeilN talk to me 04:18, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
How long will the block last? PZP-003 (talk) 04:19, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
You need to understand that your belief that other editors are "very aggressive and biased" has no relevance. If other editors object to your edits, you need to open a talk page discussion and explain why you believe your edit improves the article, and work to reach consensus that it does. If that consensus rejects your proposed edits, you're not entitled to keep reverting them because you disagree with their conclusions. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 04:22, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
72 hours. That should give you enough time to closely observe how discussion progresses with these types of articles (one of which I've added 1RR to). But really, a voluntary WP:1RR on all articles for two weeks (observing any extra restrictions already present on an article of course) is probably the best option for you here. --NeilN talk to me 04:32, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
OK I will agree to the voluntary 1RR for 2 weeks I guess if you think that is more helpful. PZP-003 (talk) 04:37, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Just to note, the now-blocked (for name reasons) POLITICO restored the same text that PZP-003 added and then edit-warred (and was blocked for) [39] [40] [41]. This was POLITICO's second edit ever, and was done while PZP-003 was blocked. So maybe a checkuser should weigh in if PZP-003 is going to claim its not him. --Calton | Talk 04:29, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Just for the record what Calton is claiming above is incorrect (he/she lies and obfuscates in a similar way that Volunteer Marek and SPECIFICO frequently do). As James J. Lambden clarified, the POLITICO revert text was different than the text I reverted prior to that during an edit war. PZP-003 (talk) 04:44, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Drop the personal attacks. Your reaction makes the need for a checkuser's attention imperative. -- BullRangifer (talk) PingMe 05:05, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
They are not "personal attacks". Calton literally lied/obfuscated...the same way users like you do throughtout WP - you bully and threaten people (like you just did again right above this edit) and you remove any NPOV/RS info you disagree with and that doesn't suit your political agenda (you even admit to this at the top of your own talk page) PZP-003 (talk) 05:10, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Personal attacks is exactly what they are. Calton didn't lie about anything, and neither did I. Calton pointed out that a similar edit was made by a different account during the time of your block. What exactly is untrue about that? Similarly, I've asked you several times to either stop accusing me of lying or provide diffs which prove it - you haven't done that and continue to persist in your attacks.Volunteer Marek (talk) 05:27, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Here it is, please don't ask me again: Calton wrote that I: restored the same text, he did not point out a similar edit. He did this to intimidate and try to open a checkuser or get me banned. You all lie in order to censor users you disagree with and further your obvious political agenda, this should be clear to anyone who analyzes your edits. Why admins allow this nonsense and BS to flourish on WP is beyond me. PZP-003 (talk) 05:40, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
BS. Your failure to absorb, understand, and believe what I've already explained shows you are not AGF. I already explained to you that it is what RS say, not my personal political POV, that drives my editing. If an edit is proper and based on RS, I'll fight to help the editor trying to include it, even if it differs from my personal POV. You don't seem to understand how that works, and I doubt it would do any good to explain it again. You are a classic edit warrior, treating Wikipedia as your battlefield. You won't last long. -- BullRangifer (talk) PingMe 05:25, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

PZP-003 agrees to a two-week WP:1RR restriction on all articles. This does not negate any other restrictions (e.g., consensus required) that have been placed on articles. --NeilN talk to me 04:45, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: link User ignored it and reverted

Comments: Ankurc.17 keeps inserting coloured text for teams progressing/eliminated from the tournament, even though I've pointed out on their talkpage that this is against the consensus at WP:MOSACCESS and WP:COLOR NOT to do this. Their last edit to the article now goes to a personal attack and continues to revert, without any sign of a discussion (my talkpage note was reverted). They seem to believe for it to be removed, that I must do it across all articles with this colouring! Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 09:44, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

The user who goes by the name of Lugnuts has been bullying people. This is not the first time he has had issues with me and for a simple reason he can't stand anyone who doesn't follow his. Lugnuts is a bully who got what he deserves. He would unnecessarily delete info stating lack of sources but won't ever put reasons for his additions. He has also deleted articles and then added them back under his own name to simply get his article count running.
[[42]] - That's just one example of personal attack this so called Lugnuts has done.
Ankurc.17 continued to revert and argue in edit summary rather than in the discussion created on talk page. Seems they have now reverted back to uncontroversial version now. Removing similar report belw, as it is covered by this Spike 'em (talk) 10:21, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Didn't knew that bullies can gang up so qucikly. Anyways Like Spike said I have reverted my edit and made my point on the talk page
So anyone who disagrees with you is a bully? You took no part in the discussion on the talk page. Spike 'em (talk) 10:39, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

As the user has now self-reverted I will close this report with a warning not to edit war in future. Any resumption may be met with a block. I have also warned the user against making personal attacks. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:09, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

I apologies if I am being rude right now but you might as well block me permanently. I will not stand against anyone bullying and since no action against lugnuts has been taken I do not believe that proper justice can be handed/

Hello. I have tried resolving this matter on the talk page but I don't think there is anything more I can do as they have continued to revert it. I have never submitted an edit warring report before so please tell me if there is anything I did incorrectly. HanotLo (talk) 17:41, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

I had reverted this first, too. The removed citations might actually not be reliable, though, and the article's talk page finally contains an explanation. The user has seen the warnings on their talk page and followed my request to explain the situation on the article's talk page. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 18:55, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
User:ToBeFree, please read what they wrote on the talk page, they are being very rude, and are not following WP:RS or WP:V. OCCRP is a reliable source.
  1. They are using original research to support removal of reliable sources, "I have gone through all information by award winners, they have never paid for the awards"[52]
  2. They are very combative and rude, "Hi. Reasonably sourced? Seriously? Can we use some logic?"[53]
  3. They are lying in their revert summaries about the talk page, "The organisation which wrote the article being cited admitted their research did not show 100% factual about their finding. I have stated on the talkpage"[54]. They have never mentioned this on the talk page and the source doesn't mention this either. HanotLo (talk) 19:20, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Comments:

An editor cannot unilaterally decide in favor of himself in an RfC he initiates. And the RfC has only gone on for three days. It has not been closed, and his actions subvert the entire reason we have n RfC process. --Tenebrae (talk) 16:44, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Not unilateral at all. 6 editors disagreed with your choice and agreed on using the original image. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 16:44, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
It's been three days. That is in no way, shape or form enough time for the nominator, of all people, to declare consensus. The proper thing would be to have asked an admin to close it. Though I'm sure an admin would have said, "After three days and just this many people? No." --Tenebrae (talk) 16:52, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
It's been three days and not one person voted in favour of your choice. If this is your way of pushing your individual choice, then it's just not going to work. Sorry. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 16:53, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
You're doing WP:ICANTHEARYOU. I've already said that consensus is not a matter of votes. Do I need to link to that? And after three days and a small number of editors, there is no consensus. Finally, the proper procedure would be to have asked an admin if it were ready to be closed yet. You can't just close an RfC in favor of YOURSELF. Seriously, dude.--Tenebrae (talk) 16:58, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
I did not close the RFC. I listened to the majority opinion and acted in good-faith. If you don't want to respect the opinion of others, you are free to do so. But don't edit war. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 16:59, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Edit-war? You are the one with four reverts. We generally wait for four reverts before filing a 3RR. That's what I did. But you seem to believe the rules don't apply to you. --Tenebrae (talk) 17:02, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Surprisingly, that's the feeling I get from your refusal to see the point of view of everyone on the talk page who disagreed with you. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 17:03, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
You can feel whatever you want. But I'm not the one who went four reverts, you edit-warring rule-breaker.--Tenebrae (talk) 17:04, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for an excellent insult. However, it is not upto you to slyly favour your preference over the original image. The original one stays until you garner consensus to change it. And not ironically, the consensus on talk page so far is against your choice. So, there you go. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 17:08, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Not one but two editors reverted your image, and yet you threw a temper tantrum and said things were going to go your way without asking for an admin close the way we're supposed to, and then edit-warred through four reverts. You make a mockery of the RfC process and rampantly edit-war. Those are not the hallmarks of either a good Wikipedian or a mature adult. --Tenebrae (talk) 19:42, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
You don't know me, so please don't assume whether I am a "mature adult" or not. That's bordering on a personal attack, and any "good Wikipedian" will refrain from doing so. --Krimuk2.0 (talk) 20:17, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
I know your actions and your behavior, and what I see is someone who acts as if they're above the rules, and who threw an edit-warring temper tantrum.--Tenebrae (talk) 20:30, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Began an RFC following an edit-war by the user. 6 editors voted against his preferred choice, following which I changed the image back to the original in good faith, since the article will be on the main page in the next few days (as I stated in the talk page). But instead of respecting consensus, he has begun another edit war. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 16:32, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

You are listing two reverts. I'm about to initiate a case showing your four reverts, and the fact you're not waiting for the RfC to close but but unilaterally inserting your favorite image. Subverting an RfC and not following process is not the way Wikipedia works. --Tenebrae (talk) 16:34, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Not unilateral at all. 6 editors disagreed with your choice and agreed on using the original image. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 16:38, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

@Krimuk2.0 and Tenebrae: Any chance you two would stop edit warring if the photo in the article when it was promoted to FA was used? [62] --NeilN talk to me 16:40, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

I began the RFC in good-faith, without warring. But don't you think 6 vs 1 should be respected? Krimuk2.0 (talk) 16:41, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
What I'd really like is for the edit war on a soon-to-be TFA to stop without blocking anyone. --NeilN talk to me 16:46, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
I'm okay with the original image or the one that was used when it was promoted to FA, as long it's not terrible. I'd hate for my work on the article to be ruined by the use of a terrible quality image when featured on the main page. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 16:47, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
If you mean this, I'm OK with it. There's a larger issue here, however, and that is an editor completely undermining the RfC process. A nominator can hardly declare in favor of himself ... particularly after just three days! If nominators can simply do that — without even asking an admin to see if WP:SNOWBALL applies, which after three days and a small number of editors is not so in this case — then why have an RfC process at all. Subverting RfC so brazenly and defiantly needs to be seriously addressed. --Tenebrae (talk) 16:55, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
There is no subversion. You undermining the opinion of the majority in favour of your own preference is what needs to be addressed. I repeat, not one person voted in favour of your choice. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 16:56, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
You're doing WP:ICANTHEARYOU. I've already said that consensus is not a matter of votes. Do I need to link to that? And after three days and a small number of editors, there is no consensus.

That is the definition of subverting the process.--Tenebrae (talk) 16:59, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Consensus is the matter of arguments, and there were plenty that agreed to use the original image. If you refuse to listen to the opinion of others, then that's something you need to work on. ASAP. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 17:01, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
It absolutely is not up to you, the nominator, to decide in favor of yourself. That's the way dictatorships work — not Wikipedia. If you believe there's consensus after three days and a small number of editors, then you ask an admin to close. You don't go vigilante and take the law into your own hands. --Tenebrae (talk) 17:04, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
It is absolutely not upto you to slyly favour your preference over the original image either. The original one stays until you garner consensus to change it. And not ironically, the consensus on talk page so far is against your choice. So, there you go. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 17:07, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Neither of you behaved particularly well. As far as I can tell, the current image was added February 6th. It was changed multiple times over the last few days and each time the change was disputed. Tenebrae, at the point you should have left the photo alone and waited for consensus to form. Krimuk2.0, I understand that time, while usually not a factor, plays an important part here. You should've asked an uninvolved admin to step in before your four reverts. What I suggest is that an admin can judge if clear consensus has emerged in two days time, before the article appears on the front page. --NeilN talk to me 17:25, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks Neil. I'll respect the opinion of an uninvolved admin. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 17:27, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
  • Note No more edit warring over the photo until RFC is closed. Any reverts or re-reverts may result in blocks. NeilN talk to me 18:12, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
That's fine and I certainly accept your judgment, NeilN. In the meantime, given both he and I agreed to your proposal for that previous, non-contentious image, would it be possible for you to insert that? Otherwise, letting an RfC nominator unilaterally declare his position victorious makes a mockery of the RfC process. --Tenebrae (talk) 19:39, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
You really need to get over these childish whims of "victory" and "loss". The better image should be used. Period. This is not a battlefield and neither of us are here to win or lose. My priority is the betterment of the article, one which I was responsible for making an FA. If you want to win at something, play a sport, because Wikipedia doesn't work that way. --Krimuk2.0 (talk) 20:15, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Oh, says the person who thinks the rules don't apply to him. You serious lack a sense of ethics.--Tenebrae (talk) 20:30, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Again, you don't know me, so stop with the personal attacks. --Krimuk2.0 (talk) 20:31, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
An editor points out objective facts — that you did four-revert edit-warring and that as an involved editor you broke the rules (by definition unethical) and declared an RfC closed in your favor — and you call that an "attack"? Wow. Just admit, please, that you blatantly broke Wikipedia:Requests for comment#Ending RfCs, which is the plain, objective truth. --Tenebrae (talk) 21:18, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Guys, please, I don't understand why this interaction between two long-standing valuable members of the community is full of vitriol. Is there some past history I'm not aware of? Can you not just accept that both of you could have handled things better and move on? You've both had your say about the photo - let others continue the discussion. --NeilN talk to me 21:36, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Blocked 31 hours — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 22:19, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
@Mad Duke, FGordillo, and N1CK3Y: What is your involvement with Board of European Students of Technology? There's no pretending that Mad-Duke and FGordillo are uninvolved, so don't even try it. N1CK3Y, you do have prior edits in unrelated topics, but they're so few and rare that it's unusual that you knew to file a report for some apparently "random" content dispute. Ian.thomson (talk) 22:22, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
  • Hello, you are correct. We are alumni of the aforementioned organisation. I think. At least, I am. I do not know if one, both, or neither of the two other named contributors are currently members. I do know, though, that the IP that just got blocked is very much a current member. That member is not trying to prevent promotion but, rather, to ensure censorship. Whether the "controversial" statement stays in the article or not does not actually matter much to me. N1CK3Y (talk) 22:32, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
@N1CK3Y: see WP:YESPROMO. It's very clear that alumni are trying to "make people aware" of that organization, which is promotion. If there was an independent source that established that BEST was noteworthy for their cantus activity, and the intro of the article mentioned noteworthy cantus-hosting organization, it'd be different. But as it is, it's just holding up BEST and only BEST as equivalent to entire countries. That is promotion, plain and simple. There may be some potentially comparable problems in the article, but that doesn't justify adding more. Ian.thomson (talk) 22:42, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
@Ian.thomson:Fair is fair. I see you have protected the article. I agree with your decision. N1CK3Y (talk) 22:59, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
  • Hello, Mad_Duke here. All I've done was to put back the mention that they keep on deleting because from their PR standpoint (as an organization which organizes Cantus events) they don't want to be associated with this practice. That is censorship pure and simple. If you take a look, this started on 21:15, 15 May 2017‎ Dragosgaf who is a member of the organization. There is ample evidence that in this huge organization which covers whole of Europe Cantus is regularly taking place. My only involvement is thus adding back the content which was previously deleted @Ian.thomson:. So basically, you got this whole thing backward. Members of the organization are the ones who wish to delete the mention because they don't want to be associated and a few alumni are the ones who keep adding it back because it's a fact that it exists. I don't personally care for the mention of BEST in the article, but I became active after I've found out that the reason why they went and deleted something was because it doesn't work with their image which they are trying to promote. Organizations are not physical individuals and the Europe "right to forget" does not count.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Mad_Duke (talkcontribs)
See WP:YESPROMO. The edit war started when 178.148.162.199 added the mention of BEST to the article. It was not there originally. 178.148 was promoting the group, which goes against our policies. This has nothing to do with censorship or "right to forget." Honestly, the idea that you were called in to fight "censorship" of something the article didn't even mention until today is honestly really hard to believe. Ian.thomson (talk) 00:54, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
@Ian.thomson: Well, this is not a promotion. When a group that works in over 100 universities across Europe organizes this kind of event (Cantus) for decades already then it's a statement of fact. If you could help me how to prove it, without resorting to sticking "hundreds" of external links. The moment when a thing which can be proven to be deleted because someone wants to delete a mention because he is working in PR of that organization then it's called censoring. I can give you the proof of those intentions for the person who has deleted it for example. I'm surely not here to promote an organization I haven't been a part of for 10 years. comment added by Mad_Duke (talkcontribs)
@Mad Duke: "Statement of fact" is not our standard, citing reliable sources (for this kind of thing, independent reliable sources) are our standard.
No evidence has come up to show that the IP who was removing things works for the PR of that organization, and you would need to be very careful in how you try to prove it. It is obvious that you have a conflict of interest with the organization. It is obvious that your account was registered solely in connection to that organization. There is no denying that you have tried to add a mention of that organization that was not there two days ago, in a way that equated that organization to entire countries, while not mentioning any other organizations that organize cantus activities, without citing any independent sources to show that those activities are noteworthy. To claim that you were not promoting but that the 89.115 is trying to censor the article on behalf of BEST is a Trump-esque level of denial and projection. If you cannot or will not acknowledge that, we will have to assume that you are not here to build an encyclopedia but to promote BEST's activities. If you leave us with that assumption, it would only be reasonable for us to block you. Ian.thomson (talk) 16:01, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
I hereby reaffirm that I think the decision that was made is fair. Forsooth, adding BEST in this article explicitly does not serve any obvious purpose other than promotion. The goal posited by my comrade hereover has already been fulfilled somewhere else (albeit implicitly, which doesn't change a thing) and that page already has a link on the page being protected. N1CK3Y (talk) 18:37, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
@Ian.thomson: It appears this edit war has actually been going on for nearly a year.[80] From what I can gather, both parties seem to have been sockpuppeting pretty repetitively ever since. All in all, this seems pretty WP:LAME to me. N1CK3Y (talk) 22:38, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Of course this edit war is going for a year. It just became better communicated lately. Also, threats of account deletion are lame. First, it's not unlike I don't have a new IP every 24hrs so that doesn't make any sense. If someone wants to do harm. He will do it. Also, expecting hard proof of BEST Cantus from independent sources (like there are news agencies that follow student drinking when nothing bad happens) is double standard because then this whole page can be deleted as well as all other mentions: "Belgian, Dutch, French, Baltic, Afrikaans student organisations, and fraternities. ". By the same logic BEST is bigger than some countries concerning the number of universities present. :) Mad_Duke (talk 00:43 CET - 20.03.2018. —Preceding undated comment added 23:51, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
@Mad Duke: Blocks apply to the user, not just the account. Once you're blocked, your words it's not unlike I don't have a new IP every 24hrs so that doesn't make any sense. If someone wants to do harm. He will do it. have just given every admin the excuse to block any and all accounts restoring any mention of BEST to the Cantus article as one of your sockpuppets. Seriously, consider this your last warning: either you are here to help, or you can go to hell.
As for sourcing, in-depth coverage from independent sources are our standard, and if you don't like it, you should find a different site. Ian.thomson (talk) 23:57, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
@Ian.thomson: So, you are threatening all articles containing BEST. because of so called actions (for which you have zero evidence) of one person writing under one account? Have you maybe thought about that I want exactly that. To completely destroy any mention of BEST on this "encyclopedia"? :D That would be a cool win. Then I will proceed to each and every other student organization pages. Pinging you in the process :D Oh, and sorry, but you don't know how the internet works. Every 24 hours (or every 5 minutes with a VPN) I can make a completely new account. Not that I feel like it. People actually need to work also hehe :) Also, this is an attack on me because you didn't answer about the inclusion of "Belgian, Dutch, French, Baltic, Afrikaans student organisations, and fraternities. ". Why are they included. I see no references to independent sources. in-depth especially :)
@Ian.thomson:, I'm FGordillo, I was part of the International Board of the organisation (BEST), and now I'm just an alumnus that cares about having proper and relevant information about BEST in Wikipedia. Cantus is being organised by BEST for years but they are not part of the main activity of the organisation, this is why I believe this reference doesn't belong to the Cantus Wikipedia page. I guess mentioning that Cantus is organised by Belgian student organisations is enough to understand the origins of Cantus and since there are no other organisations mentions I see no point on mentioning only one. The main activity of BEST is providing complementary education to students of technology. Cantus it's just a side activity that happens during some of our events. It's the first time I answer in this type of threads, feel free to adjust it or move it somewhere else if needed. FGordillo (talk) 11:38, 20 March 2018 (CET)

Note, per WP:EDITWAR: "There are certain exemptions to 3RR, such as reverting vandalism or clear violations of the Biographies of living persons policy." I believe that applies to my edits in this case, since the anon IP is violating WP:BLP by shaving a year off the subject's age in defiance of multiple sources including the book Encyclopedia of African American Actresses in Film and Television. --Tenebrae (talk) 21:49, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Yes, I have reverted the reversions of my significant edit on the Gab page. However, the reason I made the edit initially was in good faith. Mainly to give some of a contrasting perspective to the opinion that Gab is an "alt-right and white nationalists" platform. And also to add that Gab is a free-speech platform and Ekrem Büyükkaya as one of the founders.
Yes, I did cite a Medium source in my edit to the Criticism section. However, it is important for anyone thinking about reverting the edit to read the source. Co-founder Ekrem Büyükkaya, who is a Turkish engineer, specifically states in the blog post that he has never supported Trump and that he encourages both, left-wing and right-wing people to use the platform despite the fact that a lot of the alt-right adopted Gab early on. He even says that if Gab starts showing favor to the right-wing that he will be the first to leave.
Yes, I did add a source where Andrew Torba discusses his platform. However, it should not be taken as "self-serving" and rather as part of what the founders have said in response to criticisms of being an "alt-right" platform.
I want to say that if you guys want to make any edits or add something new to it, you're more than welcome. But I strongly suggest that you'd ought to do those edits yourself without reversing my entire edit.
I know this report might get me blocked from ever contributing to this website again. And I want to warn you against it. I have done other contributions besides editing the Gab page. For instance, I've updated the Winrock Town Center page to inform of recent occurrences and to add a little history of the place while and before it was a shopping mall. And if you guys decide to block me over this edit war, know that you are making a big mistake. That you will be further destroying Wikipedia's public reputation as a source. That you will prove Wikipedia to be a biased source that lives within an ideological echo-chamber. And that you guys could possibly intimidate outsiders in the future who look into contributing to the constant growth and development of this free encyclopedia.

Comments:
The user has been involved in vandalism and edit warring on Mikhail Bulgakov's page since early March and till this day. He keeps adding non-neutral information to the lead which doesn't belong there, as well as to a separate section currently named Views on Ukraine which I created after some debate. Mostly aggressive propaganda that condemns every mention of Ukraine, Ukrainian language or Ukrainian nationalists in two of Bulgakov's works (including fictional characters and Bulgakov's absolutely unrelated thoughts on Kiev during his visit after the Russian Civil War) using such words as "imperialistic", "ukraniophobic", etc. and lines such as "Bulgakov, like most Russians of his time, condemned Ukraine's independence movement", linking to the works of mostly ethnic Ukrainian researches that appeared after the dissolution of the USSR in 1991.

As I tried restructuring the text to fit Wikipedia rules on neutrality, original research and sources by adding quotes from the articles and Bulgakov's own works (since many of the scholars are biased to the point they change Bulgakov's original text to fit their agenda), Piznajko keeps reverting all edits, inclduing the fixes made to googlebook links, claiming that it's me who is reverting and deleting "constructive edits". You can see an example in one of the latest edits. Currently the section looks like an unstructured mess full of repeated abuses and one-sided accusations that have little to nothing to do with the topic. AveTory (talk) 13:38, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

As I tried to explain to you on the talk page, doing analysis of literary works yourself is considered WP:original research in Wikipedia and should be avoided. Also calling certain university researchers with Ukrainian roots nationalists does not mean you can disregard their research and decide to do all the research of writer's works yourself. Also, using hate speech/derogatory term to describe others, e.g., seemingly calling all Ukrainians nationalists, or calling Ukraine "post-Soviet Ukraine" is not exactly friendly WP behavior.--Piznajko (talk) 18:51, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
Also, you bringing information / passages that have no direct relation to the topic of the section, is not the way to truly improve the article. I'm referring to your bringing information about Bulgakov's involvement with Ukrainian cultural Renaissance (or more precisely the lack of thereof), which is unrelated to the topic of the section (at least the way you've used it); I've tried explaining it to you, but it seem like you disregarded my comment and keep adding it back.--Piznajko (talk) 18:57, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
  • I'm seeing that Piznajko was also procedurally reverted by Sparafucil, which technically could be understood to mean that it's too late to just refer y'all to WP:3O. However, he hasn't participated in the talk page discussion, so I'm not seeing much in the way of consensus and am quite inclined to decline this report and tell y'all to go to WP:3O. (Not doing so right away, but letting y'all know that this seems too far from zero-sum for me to take any other action).
Also, @AveTory: read this until you get why I'm telling you to read it.
And @Piznajko and AveTory: this isn't a content dispute board, this is a procedural board. If y'all wanna get into content, I'm seeing possible OR and NPOV issues on both sides. I would like to believe that if y'all were to earnestly try to write from the other user's perspective, y'all might arrive at something mutually agreeable version. Ian.thomson (talk) 20:24, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
I just would like to notice that Piznajko already made three reverts on the same page, after being reported here. My very best wishes (talk) 19:16, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
If User:Piznajko has continued to revert the Bulgakov article while this report was open (i.e. since 13:38 on 20 March), it suggests indifference to violations of our policy. He also appears to be engaged in a nationalist dispute, which falls under WP:ARBEE. I recommend a block of Piznajko for edit warring unless they will reply here and agree to take a break from editing the article. EdJohnston (talk) 19:26, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
I would like to add that per my TP analysis (sorry if I miscounted, long discussion and multiple sections also outside the open RfC) - it is Piznajko vs. 5 other editors.Icewhiz (talk) 19:29, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
Icewhiz, please don't misinform the community. Per RfC, it is three editors supporting my version of the section (piznajko, Sparafucil (with reservations and request to improve grammar/style) and Mykola Swarnyk) and four against it (AveTory, Icewhiz, Markbassett, and My very best wishes). Also @EdJohnston: / @Ian.thomson:}, per EdJohnston's comment: I have the highest respect of WP policies and strvie to follow them; can you be more specific when you claim that "indifference to violating of our policies"?; e.g., I didn't break 3RR rule, as I've only reverted the page version 3 times in the last 24 hours - not 4. Also, the reason I reverted, is because the user 'My very best wishes' came and deleted the section in its entirety - which in my view is a violation of WP most basic principles such as Wikipedia:Revert only when necessary (I have many issues with AveTory's version of the section, but between AveTory's non-ideal version and non at all - I would choose AveTory's version). ps. @EdJohnston, on what bases are you claiming that I'm engaged in a nationalist dispute? --Piznajko (talk) 00:51, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
@Piznajko: Running up to 3 reverts every 24 hours after a report is filed is edit warring. 3RR is not an entitlement to revert a page a specific number of times, and it is perfectly possible to edit war without breaking the three-revert rule, or even coming close to doing so. You've been reverted by AveTory, My very best wishes, and IceWhiz, who have been discussing matters with you. No one has restored your edits. That's a clear indication you should have stopped a while ago. You need to either promise to stop editing the article with regard to this topic (and let other people carry out edits that receive consensus on the talk page) or you will be blocked for edit warring. Ian.thomson (talk) 01:24, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
@Ian.thomson: Thanks for clarification. Okay, I'll stop reverting - but I openly express my unhappiness with user 'My very best wishes' just blankly deleting all the work done by other editors (including AveTory), which I see as a violation of Wikipedia:Revert only when necessary.--Piznajko (talk) 01:26, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
I didn't say just "stop reverting," I said "stop editing the article with regard to this topic." You're still free to suggest edits relating to the topic on that article's talk page, you're still free to edit unrelated parts of the page, but your prior interpretation of edit warring leaves me wary of the prospect of you adding "new" material on the topic and claiming it's not a revert. Ian.thomson (talk) 01:36, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
@Ian.thomson: I apologize - I was editing based on the earlier version of your comment, where you said "you need to stop reverting or be blocked". . Anyways, yes I'll stop editing the article.--Piznajko (talk) 01:45, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

The last reply to the discussion was on March 1, 2018. Bsems only made one reply to the discussion on the talk page but didn't sign their name.

Comments:
Judging by edit patterns for Bsems the editor will make an edit on a few pages then come back a day or two later. This is evident by the reverts on March 18, March 20 and March 22 which "technically" allows the editor to be in compliance with WP:3RR however looking at Bsems' User Controbutions and the Reversion history for Celebrity Big Brother (U.S. TV series) clearly shows the editor is involved in edit warring instead of trying to have a proactive discussion on the talk page to support their views on the controversial edits in question. User was warned on February 26th about disruptive editing then a sock puppet case was opened on February 27th. Based on edit patterns Bsems in regards to this article it seems the editor will keep reverting the established consensus. I'm not entirely sure where to take this but here according to policy seems the best place. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 07:31, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Not sure what to say here. BrightR inserted refs into the Plot summary for the film, and multiple editors have reverted them feeling they were unnecessary. BrightR started a discussion at the article's Talk page, but then seems to have dismissed every argument raised aagainst their edits and an evident lack of consensus in favor of them. They even went to the point of starting an RfC on the matter, one which not only isn't providing the consensus they're apparently hoping for, but which they keep attempting to clarify in the apparent hope of ultimately changing peoples' minds on the subject. I hoped starting a discussion with them on their Talk page asking them to at least hold off ontil they had a visible consensus would prevent this filing from occurring, but they seem to have decided that they don't really care what anyone else thinks at this point. DonIago (talk) 04:15, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Lengthy response. Click to view. EdJohnston (talk) 16:40, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
As anticipated, I was warned and may be subsequently blocked because an article owner reverts edits with "not needed" and claims local consensus:
1. Local consensus does not override policies and guidelines:

Local consensus

Where there is a global consensus to edit in a certain way, it should be respected and cannot be overruled by a local consensus. However, on subjects where there is no global consensus, a local consensus should be taken into account.

Wikipedia Arbitration Committee · Levels of consensus

Local consensus

Consensus among a limited group of editors, at one place and time, cannot override community consensus on a wider scale. For instance, unless they can convince the broader community that such action is right, participants in a wikiproject cannot decide that some generally accepted policy or guideline does not apply to articles within its scope.

Wikipedia · Consensus § Levels of consensus

2. "not needed" is WP:OWNBEHAVIOR: An editor reverts a change simply because the editor finds it "unnecessary" without claiming that the change is detrimental. This has the effect of assigning priority, between two equivalent versions, to an owner's version. The version with priority is the version that's supported by Wikipedia policies and guidelines, the one that reflect a high level of community-wide consensus which local consensus does not override.
3. In this particular case, a policy and a guideline support the edit:

A primary source may only be used on Wikipedia to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge. For example, an article about a novel may cite passages to describe the plot, but any interpretation needs a secondary source.

Wikipedia · No original research § Primary, secondary and tertiary sources

Sourcing and quotations

The plot summary for a work, on a page about that work, does not need to be sourced with in-line citations, as it is generally assumed that the work itself is the primary source for the plot summary. However, editors are encouraged to add sourcing if possible, as this helps discourage original research. If a plot summary includes a direct quote from the work, this must be cited using inline citations per WP:QUOTE. Sometimes a work will be summarized by secondary sources, which can be used for sourcing. Otherwise, using brief quotation citations from the primary work can be helpful to source key or complex plot points.

Wikipedia Manual of Style · Writing about fiction § Sourcing and quotation

Admins, by warning or blocking the party that's striving to improve Wikipedia in accordance to its policies and guidelines, while giving an implicit (or rather explicit) go-ahead to the parties that use "local consensus" and ownership behavior to override Wikipedia policies and create consensus-by-mob, you are acting against Arbitration Committee decisions and Wikipedia policies. You are contributing to the general decay of Wikipedia into mob rule.
While I will not restore the edit, note that it is correct, beneficial, and in accordance to Wikipedia policies and guidelines, while the reason and method it was removed is against Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Bright☀ 09:55, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

User unilaterally decided in February 2018 to delete info that was removed in November 2017 and reverted by ClueBot NG as vandalism. Information was re-added by me yesterday and user almost immediately reverted it. When I reverted it twice, user took it upon themselves to revert it two more times, thus violating the 3RR rules. User has offered a litany of reasons for why this information should not be on there (first it did not meet guidelines, then it wasn't sourced, then the source wasn't good enough), always changing it when I ask them to show me a specific regulation forbidding this information. Essentially trying to drown me out in Wiki regulations. I left a message asking them not to revert a third time in order to not violate the 3RR rule in 24 hours and they did it anyway. Please resolve. Udar55 (talk) 13:44, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Content dispute. User continues to add WP:LISTCRUFT material that does not meet WP:EPISODE, WP:GNG and WP:V and violates WP:NOTDIR. User does not engage in debate nor cite community guidelines arguing for inclusion; he merely states he does not agree, then re-adds the listcruft content. See Talk:Tattletales#Episode lists.
Content user is arguing for inclusion is merely a list of celebrity guests on a daily television program.

Thank you for the quick result. However, I am not at three reverts, only two. Glad to see that the user reported can clearly violate policy (three reverts in 24 hours) and nothing will be done. Udar55 (talk) 17:43, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
I undid an edit by a IP user who re-added the content along with a threat in the edit summary ("Don't revert back desgraciado! If you revert back, I'll kill you AldezD!!!") and who also blanked the talk page section. Can an admin do an IP check based upon the edit?
I'm prepared to continue discussion on the article talk page. However, @Udar55, you still have not addressed the WP guidelines presented in the discussion and have not provided an argument for including the list other than you don't agree and the content is "not hurting anyone".

This editor has reverted edits in this article four times today, using three different IPs. They have made other reverts previously, with other IPs. The edit summaries make it obvious that these are all the same editor, who has created this account, Annabanana11. — TAnthonyTalk 21:40, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

  • Result: Page indefinitely semiprotected due to WP:BLP concerns. An editor called User:Elenasatine claims to be the subject, and she she has described 'Elena Skirtladze' as a fake name. For example, she removes the name here but accepts being called Georgian-American. The continued IP revert war is not acceptable. The history shows there has been an edit war about her birth name and nationality that's been going since at least 2010. The article talk page shows some poor-quality though sincere arguments (appeals to personal knowledge, for example). Use WP:DRN or WP:BLPN if agreement can't be reached.

Editor has already engaged in disruptive editing, pushing their POV without merit. They will be blocked shortly, as they have been reported to AIV after incurring multiple warnings. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 18:26, 24 March 2018 (UTC) I have never, and never intend to engage in 'disruptive editing', and have not 'pushed my POV' at any point. I modified the "Whitewashing in film" page by correcting the terminology used throughout, and reverted changes that use incorrect, bias and hypocritical terminology. If you are describing someone based on skin color, logically you should describe others based on skin color. If you are describing someone based on ethnic heritage and country of origin, you should describe others based on the same principal. For instance, the terms "black" and "white" could be used concurrently, and the terms "African-American" and "European-American" could be used together, but you should not call someone "black" and someone else "European-American", nor should you call someone white while referring to someone else as "African-American". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.172.249.243 (talk) 00:49, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

This editor has been edit warring for some time in regards to the iconic image of Washington crossing the Delaware, insisting in various ways that the article must either not include the image or must include the editor's own OR. While talk page consensus has been strongly against either one, the editor has continued to make reverts, and has indicated in their edit summaries that they intend to continue doing so. Seraphimblade Talk to me 21:49, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

I don't think that what I did constitutes edit warring- if it does, then I don;t object to banning me. Whether the painting is iconic or not, it contains blatantly anachronistic content- content that not one of the people in favor of keeping the painting believes isn't anachronistic. All I'm saying is that the painting shouldn't be included in a section describing the facts of military history without a note about the historical inaccuracy of the painting. Ahistorical painting is ahistorical, regardless of how iconic it is (and I know it is iconic). I think it should probably be moved to a section about culturally significant depictions of Washington. I'm just one person advocating for making a clear dividing line between truth and myth on Wikipedia. I love wikipedia. If in the end I don't win out, at least I stood on the side of presenting only history in the history section and/or trying to give readers a critical perspective on the Washington mythologizing that they have been exposed to from cradle to grave. Thanks for your work here. Geographyinitiative (talk) 13:09, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Dimadick's edit added uncited personal information, and possibly undue material over the arrest --but not conviction-- of a relatively unknown figure, contrary to BLPCRIME. --Mike

The anonymous user has blanked articles like Anne Heche, Tia Carrere, Fiona Apple, and Tom Wopat, citing supposed BLP violations. He/she is actually deleting sources. And Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons#BLPCRIM applies only "to individuals who are not public figures". Dimadick (talk) 15:28, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
  • One. Not anyonymous, my name's Mike, as I signed.
  • Two. No blanking of articles, just some overly detailed, undue, poorly sourced, or non-BLP-compliant material.
  • Three. In cases of doubt, (eg. the "well-knownness" of an actor, how relevant info is, etc.) on a BLP it is important to leave material out while under consideration. Be conservative.
  • Four. I notice you blindly reverted without giving reasons. --Mike — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:781C:A200:34B4:81EA:E4EA:3AA6 (talk) 15:33, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
  • Every single thing this guy does is reverted three times in each article he edits in. They keep removing any mention of anyone's arrest, even when there are reliable sources covering it, and in one case I personally just reverted when the person has already pleaded guilty to a crime.

Straight up edit war with her and me. They do not understand that we need MEDRS sources and just keep forcing garbage sources in. argh. Jytdog (talk) 04:06, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

  • It's not an edit war. I have been trying to add information that needs to be on the page. And, to that end, I have changed both the wording and the sources for that information, several times, so as to best comply with the standards used on Wikipedia. I'm not simply going back and redoing the same edit; I'm trying to work toward providing the information in a way that is tenable to the guidelines. And, at this point, I have done that, yet user Jytdog is engaging in belligerent arguing, and reverting the edit regardless of pertinence, usefulness, wording, or citation. Additionally, I have provided probably one of the best sources that is achievable on the information provided, the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, which is a reputable source of information for the information cited. At this point, Jytdog is easily far more guilty of "edit warring", based on their own repeated reverts which are now being made regardless of sources, information, or wording. I am actively trying to improve the page with information that should be on the page, because that information serves to better educate those who would read the article on what the condition entails. That is my goal, and at this point, it seems evident that they are bent only on winning whatever "edit war" they think is going on than on improving the article itself. The1truesushiboy (talk) 05:31, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
  • last two edits by them (one above and one subsequent) violated copyright and I have requested revdel. I am sympathetic to people with conditions but a) ADAA is not a major medical/scientific body, b) the source was not about this condition; and c) we cannot copy/paste out of sources. Its not about winning, its about building a high quality encyclopedia. Jytdog (talk) 12:51, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
  • Last edit did not violate copyright, as it includes altered wording, as well as the fact that symptoms are not copyrightable, and facts aren't either. Wording may be, but a straightforward list of symptoms is not so much. Even so, parts of it were changed, and if more needs to be changed, then let those parts be changed, rather than remove them entirely. And A.) The ADAA is an organization that contributes to scientific research, and is run, in part, by a scientific advisory board and clinical advisory board, making it a scientific organization. Being a non-profit organization and a scientific organization are not mutually exclusive entities. The description provided for medical and scientific organization in Wikipedia's guidelines on reputable sources indicated that the ADAA does count as a reputable source, B.) The source was about symptoms that those with the the condition may suffer from, which is important information to have on the article, and given that it is not a condition for which other publication of its symptoms in specific context exist that are not discounted by the criteria for citable sources, the stress and anxiety symptoms of specific phobias, as a whole, is the best source of this information that is made possible, and remains important to the article, and C.) It was not, in its entirety copied and pasted, and if it needs rewording, then, by all means, reword it, but don't remove it. And the entire purpose of adding this information is to make Wikipedia a high-quality encyclopedia, i.e. one with information on the topic people look up, that will help people learn about it. The only thing I am trying to do here is make the article on this condition enlightening. But you seem bent on making it a dictionary description with nothing of medical value. Which, if that's what the page is going to end up as, means it doesn't need to exist in the first place, because it is not going to provide people looking for information on the condition with anything more useful than a wiktionary page would. If this were about making Wikipedia a good encyclopedia, the information would be there to inform people of what the condition entails. The1truesushiboy (talk) 13:42, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
  • Page protected – there appears to be a content dispute on the page. Consider dispute resolution.. A simple list of terms is not a copyright violation. Jytdog, you should know better than to edit war simply to resolve a dispute. The1truesushiboy, please discuss this further with Jytdog on the talk page of the article. In the future if you are reverted and you feel you are "right", take it to the talk page. There is zero reason for being blocked trying to get information on the page.

I believe that User:Bloodybrilliantmusic is probably a new account for User:Cpurcellartwork, who was reported and banned last week by Ronhjones  (Talk) for these exact same sort of Original Research additions and edit warring on the "Whitewashing in film" page. See Cpurcellartwork's talk page here and my previous report for edit warring, here [191]). Hopefully the administrators can look into this and, if it is indeed the same user up to his old tricks, or a new user who is simply edit warring with some kind of agenda, you can bring the situation to a resolution.

Bloodybrilliantmusic (talk) 16:21, 28 March 2018 (UTC) Your 'belief' does not comply with a neutral point of view. I have not engaged in any 'edit warring'; if you consider my edits to be 'edit warring' then you must acknowledge the fact that a 'war' is comprised of at least two sides (it takes 2 to tango) and thereby you implicate yourself as a participant in the 'edit war' - if my account is blocked due to this Kohoutek1138 should receive the same penalty.

User repeatedly adds unsourced attributions of terrorist attacks. There are sources that do not specify the perpetrators. When these are removed he makes reversions along with other additions to mask the reversions. Has made no response at dialogue on article talk page or on his own. Heliotom (talk) 16:10, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

  • Warned This series of articles are a magnet for disruptive and poorly sourced edits. So much so that I've had to add an editnotice, Per Wikipedia's no original research policy sources should clearly ascribe events to "violent non-state actors for political, religious, or ideological motives" like ISIL or directly call the event terrorism or suspected terrorism on quite a few of them (thanks to EvergreenFir for highlighting the problems in this area). @Koranion and Heliotom: Please read the preceding and edit accordingly. A lot of the content also falls under WP:GS/SCW&ISIL so also please keep that in mind. NeilN talk to me 17:25, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

- removes sourced content (perpetrators) - does not know that Naxalites are members of the CPI (Maioist) => terror organisation - reverting to older versions without correcting the errors - not able to translate arabic sources / does not read the complete text - (often) removes the whole edits (instead of fixing)

Point one: I restored that removal immediately Point two: the issue isn’t whether these organizations are terrorist, it’s you’re UN sourced attributions Point three: when you have made edit after edit of unsourced reversions mixed with new additions it’s hard to clean up without going back to an older version, which is precise;y why you edit in this way Point four: my Arabic is admittedly limited, I have only edited one with an Arabic source and have left it once you pointed out the error point five: see point three

You have made no attempt to discuss this despite my reaching out to you across multiple talk pages, including your own, though I note you recently chose to delete an range of warnings and requests to stop this unsourced editing behaviors. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Koranion&diff=832087197&oldid=832060285 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Heliotom (talkcontribs) 17:41, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Comments: Multiple people have removed content backed up by links to tweets by random users. This user keeps readding the content reverting the edits of multiple users. CaptainPrimo (talk) 08:08, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

CaptainPrimo's version of events is flawed, as can be seen by anyone who looks at the article's edit history. The white savior narrative link was added to the see also section by an anonymous editor on March 26. On March 27, I reverted a series of unhelpful edits, which included removing the link from the see also section as well as smaller section regarding the controversy over accusations that the film is an example of cultural appropriation. The second edit on March 27 was to the cast section and is irrelevant to this discussion. My third edit on the 27th was reverting GrossesWasser, who removed the cultural appropriation section and the see also link with no explanation. My fourth edit was again reverting the deletion of the see also link. The link has since been deleted again, but there is now a post on the talk page explaining the reasoning. So, yes, I made four edits in just over 24 hours, one of which was irrelevant. Two edits were to restore content that was removed without an adequate reason. The latter, to my mind, is simple vandalism patrolling. Again, the version of events offered by Captain Primo is dubious, at best, and the claim of content backed by tweets is simply untrue. It should be noted that this is the same dubious logic he offered when he deleted the cultural appropriation section again. ---The Old JacobiteThe '45 12:20, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

Seven reverts in a 24 hour period and no sign that it will stop if the other editor he's warring with (Drmargi) decides to revert again. They've both been going at it for more than a day. -- ψλ 19:53, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for the notification. There has as yet been no breach of 3RR by either party. Your diffs overlook my having raised the matter on the article talk page, and on the other editor's talk page, neither of which she has yet meaningfully engaged with (and on the article page not at all). In summary, this article (concerning a US/UK tv drama co-production about the British monarchy) contained a mix of British and American English usage. To resolve the matter I traced back the edit history and identified that the first post-stub version that introduced an Engvar was early on 7 November 2016, which used British English. Hence I applied the MoS and edited the article into British English. This was opposed by Drmargi who edited the article into American English. I raised the matter on the talk page, and restored the mixed usage version as a compromise. This was rejected by Drmargi who again edited the article into American English. As a further compromise this morning I applied WP:Commonality and edited the disputed wording so that common UK/US terms were used instead. Once again Drmargi edited back into American English, with three reverts so far in the past few hours. In the circumstances I am surprised to find that I, rather than the other editor, am the subject of this report. In any event, administrator assistance to resolve the dispute would be helpful, as I have run out of compromises to offer. MapReader (talk) 20:55, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Someone want to explain how "has received critical acclaim for its directing" is American English and "was praised for its direction" is British English? --NeilN talk to me 21:24, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Those aren't the words at dispute. If they got caught up in today's to-and-fro it will be because Dmargi added them into her mass-edit removing my Commonality changes in favour (/favor) of US English (or more likely, made her mass-revert by returning to an earlier version of the page and the acclaim edit got rowed in by accident). Perhaps she can explain why? The "acclaim" words were added originally by an IP editor (User:79.169.136.217) who spends his/her time adding identical wording into numerous tv and film pages, and there are a number of editors including me who have been restoring the original wordings. As far as UK/US goes it's a red herring (in any event when I removed the IP edit originally, Dmargi suppported the change). MapReader (talk) 21:28, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
Now that the article has settled down, perhaps this matter is best moved to the disputes page? MapReader (talk) 20:38, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

FriendlyRiverOtter is a tendentious POV pusher. His purpose in this episode of edit warring is to remove "landslide victory" from the article. He attempts to circumvent WP:BRD by starting a discussion and then edit warring. He justifies edit warring by claiming that we're discussing the changes. When in fact, his efforts are being resisted by several editors and he is editing against consensus.

He is attacking the article on multiple fronts to push his POV and obscure his actions. As you can see from the above table of edit warring, he is attacking Lines 56 and 183 to spread out the reverts. He is also using confusing edit summaries.

FRO has been reported for edit warring before just a mere 3 weeks ago [247]. This time we need to send a clear message to this editor that pretending to discuss issues while edit warring is unacceptable. This is not a content dispute. Protecting the page would be a mistake and only embolden this editor.– Lionel(talk) 01:40, 29 March 2018 (UTC)


I invite an administrator to please take a look at the Ronald Reagan edit history and Talk page.

Yes, correct, there was a previous charge of edit warring. The decision by an administrator was 'No violation.'

Earlier today (March 29) on the Wikipedia talk:Featured article review page, I started a topic entitled "article on Ronald Reagan controlled by handful of pro-Reagan partisans."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Featured_article_review#article_on_Ronald_Reagan_controlled_by_handful_of_pro-Reagan_partisans
Two separate persons inform me that FAR is not a dispute resolution process, which I can accept. I would like to know what is an appropriate dispute resolution process where I might ask for help, for our Ronald Reagan article really is controlled, primarily, by three pro-Reagan partisans.

Please take a look at this edit by Drdpw:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ronald_Reagan&diff=832726042&oldid=832724993
(Reverted good faith edits by FriendlyRiverOtter (talk): Lead with EC as that is what is most important in a US presidential election. (TW))
Even though in two edits, I had included a new source and included what the source states are the accurate numbers for percentages of popular votes, my fellow editor reverted all of it.

Please particularly look at this edit, also by Drdpw:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ronald_Reagan&diff=832728821&oldid=832727605
Drdpw added to our lead: "winning 44 of 50 states and receiving 90.9%."
Does this clarify the topic, or is it rather an example of sloganeering and politicking? Now, the source does include in a table that Reagan won 90.9% of electoral votes. But if this is read quickly in our article, people are likely to assume it refers to the popular vote. Percentages in text typically refer to the popular vote. And Reagan certainly didn't win 90.9% of the popular vote (!) (!) (!)

I have strived to remain middle-of-the-road and moderate, I think largely successfully. However, I welcome any constructive criticism of edits I have made. FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 04:23, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

This is the edit in which I perhaps most pushed the envelope:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ronald_Reagan&diff=832738653&oldid=832737619
I do not think excessively. And if it makes a difference, removing the word "easily" from the description of Reagan winning the 1980 Republican nomination seems to have been accepted.

And this is the edit of how I think things should be:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ronald_Reagan&diff=next&oldid=832738653
If we're going to say Reagan won 44 of 50 states in our lead, we should also say that the popular vote was Reagan 51%, Carter 41%, and the bulk of the balance to Anderson.FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 00:13, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

On March 19, Drdpw reverted my work on the Legal guardian page.
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Legal_guardian&diff=831166220&oldid=830747707
A page which he or she has seemingly expressed no previous interest.

I sent Drdpw a message to his or her Talk page asking, are you following me about Wikipedia.
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Drdpw&diff=prev&oldid=831736016

And once there I saw that Rja13ww33 had previously sent Drdpw a message as follows: "Hi. Hate to bother you but if you could weigh in on the Reagan talk page with this on-going thing with NYCJosh, I'd appreciate it.Rja13ww33 (talk) 01:51, 2 March 2018 (UTC)"

And Rja13ww33 seems to be the third very active member who "guards" the Ronald Reagan page. This may be our best opportunity to get some help. Yes, the page basically needs some adult supervision for a while.FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 01:28, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on talk page: 1

Comments: The edit that I have made to the article is not controversial in nature as the family concerned in this discussion is of American and German ancestry and the information is sourced in the body of the article. I added the same piece of information to the infobox and he reverted and asked for an explanation, which I provided later in my edit summary. He reverted again without a clear reason and started edit warring with me on another article. Eventually I left a message on his talk page and asked him to discuss the issue on the article talk page. He blanked his page, reverted my edit again, called me Idiot and wrote: "fine, go ahead and see who they [administrators] side with". He also reverted my edit one last time without providing an edit summary. I want the administrators to judge and see whether my edits were disruptive or his, and, based on our policies, I really don't think that it's appropriate to insult other users and call them "idiot". It's worthy to mention that he was previously reported for such behavior in the past. Keivan.fTalk 20:07, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

This is all very energetic. Changes or specifications of some thing as fundamental as national background surely need a source. Citing ‘look at the article’ doesn’t cover it.

A technical but Seeing as the suggestion’s been deleted by himself before, -maybe Keivan.F should apply WP:brd before bothering everyone with this nonsense.Heliotom (talk) 20:39, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

It's not up to you to decide whether it's nonsense or not. The point of the discussion wasn't about nationality, it was about ethnicity, and that his grandparents were German is a fact, based on the sources that we have in numerous articles related to him. By the way, it's not the right place to bring this up. You should have discussed it on the article talk page when you had the chance instead of reverting my edits multiple times. Keivan.fTalk 00:59, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
I should point out that your claimed attempt at resolution is nothing of the sort, being 1. A warning 2. In the wrong talk page and 3. About a different article.
In both rticles you’ve comprehensively ignored the principle of WP:BRD, even more egregiously on the Family of Donald Trump where it is clearly noted that changes after a reversion must have consensus, and come running to file a report here for edit warring that you initiated.
Still, things seem to have calmed down, and I see you have posted a discussion on at least one of the issues, to which I have replied. Hopefully we can find a common ground that satisfies everyone.

Heliotom (talk) 13:29, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Yes, I warned you about one of the articles on your talk page. What would be the point of another warning when you had already erased the first one? And yes, I opened an RfC as that's the most appropriate way to solve the issue when two users do not agree over the subject. I had engaged in an edit war already and I don't intend to get blocked.

I'm an uninvolved editor but saw this edit war going on in my watchlist. Despite four different users disagreeing with his edits, an on-going talk page discussion, and a 3RR warning, this IP has reverted well above the limit. Nikki311 06:28, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
