Scholarly sources do not agree on a birthplace for Siddhārtha Gautama, so the article should not word the description as if it's a fact. The birthplace issue is a perennial subject on the article's talk page (Talk:Gautama Buddha/Archive 7 for example). As far as discussing it on the talk page with the editor, this I am guilty of not having done sooner. I had initially thought that this was an editor who had already discussed this on the talk page, but after looking to make sure it turned out this user has never used a talk page of any kind for any reason, so I was mistaken. - SudoGhost 03:31, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

Whilst not violating the 3 RR per se, edit warring such as this is also unacceptable. The user has a huge history of disruptive editing, as evident from his block log.

Just a couple of days ago he did break the 3 RR:

2. 2nd revert [14]
3. 3rd revert [15]
4. 4th revert [16]

Comments:

Although reverts 3-6 are only a technical violation of 3RR (18 minutes short of 24 hours), I introduce the first two as evidence of edit warring. He refuses to accept messages on his talk page, so it would probably be pointless to bring up the matter there. There is now a third editor on the talk page concurring that the his edit (and reverts to restore his edit) should not be there. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 19:28, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

I find it's funny how you report someone else, but "conveniently" not yourself for the same infraction! TySoltaur (talk) 19:30, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

I'm one revert short of you in each group. In addition, you have not attempted to justify your edits on the talk page, or, in fact, anywhere on Wikipedia. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 19:34, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

Yes, you DID do 3 reverts, and it's recorded in the article history. TySoltaur (talk) 19:36, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

It's a limit of 3 reverts, it requires 4 within 24 hours to be a WP:3RR violation. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 19:39, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

Jesus, you´re on a mission aren´t you? The first revert listed was me just making an edit to the article, not a ´revert´ as such (it´s also two days old). The second revert listed, which is actually the first, was me giving a reason for the removal as Command complained that the reason I previously gave isn´t correct. The third revert listed, which is actually the second revert, was me addressing his complaint that there was a source. I pointed out that the source was being taken out of context. I was then reverted by somebody else who said that I should get consensus on talk. I didn´t revert that and I plan on opening a section on the talk page. I´ll also note that Command is also at two reverts. Edgth (talk) 22:26, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

• Not blocked - I see two reverts by the reported user, and zero attempts to discuss the issue on any talk pages. Oddly, I also happen to see two reverts and zero attempts to discuss by the user who reported the issue. However, Edgth is put on notice that removing warnings from his talk page and not reforming his behavior is classic tendentious editing that is going to get him blocked at some point - and possibly banned.

Comments:

This user has been re-adding Category:Anti-Catholicism in the United States to the Jack T. Chick article, with a bizarre appeal to WP:BURO. Since this is contrary to the guidelines on the category page, he has also been engaged in disruptive editing on that page, and related category pages (e.g. [58][59][60]) in order to remove the restrictions that he does not like. User:Kendrick7 has also engaged in personal attacks against the admin who first suggested (two years ago) that such categorization is inappropriate[61], and against myself.[62] Please help stop this disruptive editor. StAnselm (talk) 05:04, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

• Further comment: The user in question is continuing to edit disruptively with edits such as this, with the bizarrely misguided summary "don't need consensus, WP:BURO is an actual thing". StAnselm (talk) 05:06, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
• Good Lord. Whitewashing Jack Chick? Really? What is next for this editor? Hitler loved puppies, what's with all the hate? -- Kendrick7^talk 05:09, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

• And yes, WP:BURO is an actual thing. One admin's opinion upon the closure of an cfd in 2011 doesn't actually magically create a policy the rest of us are forced to live with. -- Kendrick7^talk 05:12, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

User has disrupted multiple pages and has demonstrated a total disregard for the opinions of many other editors to the point of harassment.

User is fresh off of a 48-hour block for edit-warring with another user.

This person has messed up not only the page List of religious populations but also Buddhism by country, just because his own research lead him to make his own figures, and comments like "1.2 billion is more acceptable" would lead to the same conclusion.[66] Bladesmulti (talk) 07:45, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

And here are your biased entries which violates WP:NPOV and your citation given are just personal blog (http://glipho.com/standrewslynx/weekend-buddhism) and even copied the whole original article on Wikipedia (http://www.chinabuddhismencyclopedia.com/en/index.php?title=Buddhist), they are not reaiable sources (see WP:OR and WP:RS. We are now discussing in its Talk Page and avoid any edit wars. I were blocked once because of a Muslim extremist few days ago (now he is blocking for 1 month) and now I am facing with a Buddhist extremist, how great.

Similar issues with the same editor on Fettes College article. - SchroCat (talk) 15:20, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

• Page protected Let me know if disruption continues on any other pages. Mark Arsten (talk) 15:50, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

If you go to the talk pages of this author and of the two related topics on Fettes College and on James Bond you could easily determine on the balance of probabilities if what is claimed could be factual or not.

The material being put forward would never in any case be allowed to be sourced because by its very nature.

This is nothing compared to the scale of leaks from the Bradley Manning and WikiLeaks but Fettes College used to be well know among the local residents who lived in the surrounding areas near the college as "The School of Spies". The school used to have its own shooting range and its own underground Armoury locked by heavy steel doors and containing everything from small arms pistols to heavy machine guns. The College also had its own Navy, Air Force and Army Cadet Force. In the past many a former officer in the Anglo American Intelligence services was educated there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.132.241.46 (talk • contribs)

This isn't the place for the comments, and Fettes is not unusual in British public schools in having a cadet force, shooting range and armoury. I've tweaked the thread title back: I reported you, not the articles. - SchroCat (talk) 21:03, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

Anon warned more than once. Avenue for discussion was available on the talk-page. Anon insists on reverting to their own wording of the intro (please see full history; anon was reverted multiple times before by a number of editors). In addition to anon, there is also a suspected, single-purpose sock of anon, but that's a different story altogether. I self-reverted so I don't break 3RR myself, but I really think it's vandalism at this stage.

Cheers, Λuα ^{(Operibus anteire)} 21:04, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

• Page protected. I've semi-protected the article for a week, although, honestly, everyone has been edit warring over the content. That said, the IP has been doing the most and has not been participating in any discussion. Also, semi-protection will take care of the registered account you suspect of being the same individual as the IP (I have no opinion on that issue). I wouldn't call this vandalism, and there's been no recent breach of WP:3RR by anyone. Most important counsel: focus more on discussion on the talk page than on all of these little battles in the article.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:30, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks! Honestly, it'd be a lot easier to discuss things, but anon refuses to discuss anything (generally, not even in edit summaries). I will restore to another editor's version for now, but we'll see. If we can bring anon to the discussion table to get their point of view, that'd be a huge victory.

Comments:

There is a dispute on the Owl City page over whether or not Owl City should be called a band. This appears to have been going on for some time. Note that the 3RR is somewhat complicated here because there are at least 7 articles that I see that are immediately involved in this dispute. As a passerby, there appears to be somewhat of a consensus that Owl City should not be called a band, but Walter Görlitz (talk · contribs) has continued to revert edits to the contrary of his own opinion. This user has today performed reverts on all of them in succession, effectively 7 reverts in a row. Samcooke343 (talk · contribs) has also made similar revert-type edits across the article space. Both users claim the talk page discussion supports their reverts.

Of June: Revision history shows that these two users have been reverting each other over the course of the past month, although never more than one revert within a 24 hour period.

Also note that in diff #1 (link 2) comment the user in question appears to acknowledge that his revert is a propagation of the dispute and in diff #5 (link 10) in the related article space the user appears to revert just for the sake of a revert as the previous version uses "artist" and not "band". The user also refers to references supporting the use of "band" but the two inline citations (here and here) are a VEVO video and a product at the iTunes store, both of which are relatively specious to me as sources for this information.

Because these users are continuing to revert despite that there is an ongoing discussion (WP:IDHT and WP:TALKDONTREVERT), it appears that this dispute will not resolve itself without administrator intervention. The block log for the user in question also shows they have been blocked before for this kind of behavior.

Radiodef (talk) 22:28, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

I just wanted to drop by to agree with Radiodef (talk · contribs) on this one, Walter Görlitz (talk · contribs) believes Owl City is a band due to some questionable and frankly unreliable sources, and continues to revert edits based on these beliefs. I would also request a block on this user (on this page), as this clearly will continue until action is taken.

Regards, Sam. Samcooke343 (talk) 23:20, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

• Reporting editor is clearly not familiar with what an edit war is.

Reporting editor is clearly unfamiliar with WP:RS. The term "band" for Owl City is referenced. The term "project", is not.

I have been discussing this on the Owl City article and there appears to be consensus to keep it worded as "is an American electronica band, one of several projects by singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Adam Young." This incorporates the idea that the music is not solo work by Young and that it is a project of Young's. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:08, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Fine me RSes that supports that Owl City is a project, which is the thrust of the discussion on the Owl City page, and I'll gladly (and correctly) change that article and every album article. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:18, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

As per WP:EW, the 3RR need not be broken to be an edit war. I want to be clear that I am reporting this because of the large cumulative number of reverts across the article space and because of the WP:IDHT and WP:TALKDONTREVERT. Radiodef (talk) 00:31, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Then Samcooke343 is guilty of the same behaviour: no discussion just revert to his preference and a large cumulative number of reverts. Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:14, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Comments:

There is an Arbcom case related to the main article of which this has been a controversially created subarticle. The scope of the relevant discussion of the material encompasses more than the Talk page of the subarticle. In this case, the edit summaries are indicative of the nature of the content dispute, and P&W has reverted the edits to the same material made by four other editors, including myself.--Ubikwit ^連絡 _{見学/迷惑} 05:21, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Um -- the "reverts" do not amount to "edit war" as they are spread out over a much longer period than 24 hours, and the complainant appears historically to be as much a warrior as the one complained about here. So both "stale" and "clean hands" apply to this "report", alas. In addition, this noticeboard is not the place to continue skirmishing on a topic which has been the subject of extended moderated discussion to which the OP was a party, and for which he did not like the internal consensus. IOW, WP:IDHT also applies here. Collect (talk) 05:29, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Related discussion here Talk:Tea_Party_movement#Proposed_merge_with_Agenda_of_the_Tea_Party_movement.

Collect, are you suggesting that the reverting simply be continued unabated.

If 24 hours applies here, I'll refile the case at the appropriate board.--Ubikwit ^連絡 _{見学/迷惑} 05:36, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Yeah. The 24-hour rule applies here, Ubikwit.

The problems with this report are abundant and Collect has touched on a few of them. Every now and then Ubikwit edits without consensus, and then I revert, asking him in my edit summary to establish consensus on the article Talk page. Notice that he did not post a diff of any warning to me, because there was no warning. Nor did he post a diff of any effort to resolve the dispute on the article Talk page, because he never made any effort to resolve the dispute on the article Talk page. He just quietly accumulated diffs until he had enough to satisfy "3RR", and ambushed me — failing to take into consideration that a great deal more than 24 hours had elapsed. In fact, nearly two weeks elapsed between the first diff and the last. Some of these diffs represent an eventual compromise between Snowded and myself regarding the lede of the article. There is no academic consensus supporting the statement that the Tea Party movement supports an originalist view of the Constitution, but Ubikwit and Snowded successfully editwarred it into the lede and eventually I just let it go. Ubikwit is definitely exhibiting battleground behavior after his failed attempt to WP:OWN the article and get the title (and therefore the scope) of the article changed to his preferred version. This incident is probably going to become another unfortunate addition to the ArbCom case against him. Phoenix and Winslow (talk) 05:49, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Don't revert due solely to "no consensus" — goethean 16:54, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Incidentally, this edit warring relates to P&W's insistence to include material from primary sources in the lead without even attributing it. If I have misfiled this report, would an admin please inform me that such is the case. The main article is under discretionary sanctions now, as was the Moderated discussion page. This subarticle was created outside of the purview of those, however, so I am also unsure whether AE would be the proper venue to raise this.--Ubikwit ^連絡 _{見学/迷惑} 07:17, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

IOW, there was no current "edit war" and your post here was due to your iterated concerns about sourcing which have already been made on multiple locations on Wikipedia. This is known as "forumshopping" at that point, Ubo, and since that is now your "stated reason" for this complaint on this noticeboard, this is contrary to Wikipedia proactive, policy and guidelines. Please be aware that such improper use of noticeboards can also be viewed as harassment, and could even lead to your own block just for that reason. Cheers - now will someone close this before Ubi digs the hole deeper? Collect (talk) 10:58, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

• While there's nothing going on right now that necessitates a block, there certainly has been a slow-motion edit war going on here. Contrary to some assertions above, there is not a required "24-hour rule" beyond which edit-warring behavior may not be considered, and while we are generally reluctant to take action on old matters that are already largely resolved, we can and will address slow-motion warring that's still ongoing. Next time, it's likely to be addressed with more than a warning. I hope both parties will take that into consideration, and utilize the talk page or dispute resolution rather than the undo button. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 11:48, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Um -- the "reverts" are two weeks old now -- seems "stale" is an understatement. What occurred here is just plain harassment at this point. Cheers. Collect (talk) 15:35, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

So let me see if I have this straight. You are accusing me of harassment, and doing so in a manner that is utterly dismissive of the findings of the admin that looked into the report. And the findings included the specific comment that a "24-hour rule" is not a constraining factor applicable here.

I filed this report in an attempt to resolve a dispute that has been acknowledged to be a slow-moving edit war.

I'm posting a followup comment because this report will be presented at the Arbcom case for the consideration of the Committee.--Ubikwit ^連絡 _{見学/迷惑} 16:39, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

You have posted essentially the same position and argument on multiple talk pages and noticeboards, and on the ArbCom pages more than once to boot. Amazingly enough, when a person posts the same stuff on multiple boards, and posts multiple warnings for the same material on a talk page, there is but a small leap of logic to see what may be occurring. I suggest you not make that leap evident to everyone and his brother. Cheers. Collect (talk) 20:35, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

In my changes I keep asking to discuss on talk page or with RFC but he refuses. Thank you, MarioNovi (talk) 06:12, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

• Comment As I have just said here, here and here, these two contributors have got fundamental problems. My suspicion is that this needs consideration at a more general level than specific AN3 reports. There certainly is a substantial COI problem for one of them and the other has a bee in their bonnet about it. - Sitush (talk) 06:18, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

• Comment - With respect, it's far more than a "bee in their bonnet". As of a few weeks ago, MarioNovi had started 2 AFDs, a DRV, a COIN thread, an ANI thread, an RFC, and RFC/U, a WP:3O thread and 2 EL/N threads over the last six months, all focused on Wwwhatsup and a handful of articles where he has acknowledged a COI. It's been less than 2 weeks since Sitush again warned MarioNovi for forum shopping and now we're here. For the record, I called WP:NOTHERE after the first two AFDs. Editors (even those with a conflict of interest) should not be subjected to this sort of harassment. An admin should feel free to do what should have been done months ago and block MarioNovi per WP:BOOMERANG. Stalwart111 06:36, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Comment WP:FORUMSHOP only applies if you go to one, get consensus you don't like, then go to another until you find one you do. None of my tries got any interest so I was in the wrong forum. The only exception was this RFC which you admit you closed even though people agreed [105]. No one has ever told me correct place but I think you are trying to distract from issue for some reason. Reason I forum shopped is because I did not want to remove links without knowing if I was right or he is. No one was interested in talking about it a lot except a few who said I was right so I finally decide to start doing it. MarioNovi (talk) 06:42, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
    • Actually, no. If you keep getting no response then that is a signal that you need to drop the stick. However, Wwwhatsup is far from blameless here. - Sitush (talk) 06:46, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

• I didn't close that RFC - that's just silly. I suggested it be closed at "Requests for Closure" and an admin closed it with the comment, "Inappropriate use of RFC on a user's talk page". You didn't get the result you wanted at either AFD and took one to DRV. You also didn't get the result you wanted at COIN, ANI, that misguided RFC or your improperly formatted RFC/U which then got no support. Then you went to 3O, EL/N, a random article talk page and now you're here with the same message as at each of the previous venues - editor has a COI; must be stopped. That's a textbook case of WP:FORUMSHOP. Stalwart111 07:19, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

• I was aware that I was breaking 3RR, but I had added refs after earlier reverts, and it was MN's 3rd revert this diff with the summary "Nothing in second ref about Better Badges at all." that pushed me over the edge. Take a look at the ref. Wwwhatsup (talk) 06:59, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Are you counting my first edit as a revert? Because it was an edit not a revert. Edit that you reverted. MarioNovi (talk) 07:04, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
    • You are both edit warring. Wwwhatsup, my comment about blamelessness was with regard to the wider issues, not this specific report. - Sitush (talk) 07:06, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
      • My comment should have read as nothing connecting Better Badges to the topic it is referencing. but it doesn't matter it is still 3rr. Why did you refuse to seek consensus? Thank you, MarioNovi (talk) 07:27, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
    • Your first edit was a revert, in part, of this edit. WP:EW: "An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert." So you did make three reverts to the article, though that first one was on the 18th. - Aoidh (talk) (formerly User:SudoGhost) 07:40, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
• Beyond what Stalwart111 notes above, from MN's first ever appearance on Wikipedia in January practically his/her every activity has been aimed at me and my edits. I've been outed, I've been forum-shopped, canvassed against. I believe I've been very patient, and tried to respond appropriately, and get on with building Wikipedia, as usual. But somewhere the pettiness and harassment has to stop. More than one editor, including me, and you, Sitush, has done their best to direct MN's efforts in more positive directions, but with little effect. After a brief pause, it's always back to the same. Is it any wonder that I am beginning to lose patience? The first ref states clearly that BB donated the transmitter. The second that BB served as the home address for the station. There would be no dispute if it was not for MN's ongoing campaign. Wwwhatsup (talk) 07:37, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Santamoly added new text to The Mayor of Casterbridge, which was reverted by David J Johnson for being uncited POV text. Santamoly has not responded to David J Johnson's concerns (expressed both on the article talk page and Santamoly's talk page), other than to call David's removal a "cheap shot" etc., and has since re-added the material 4 times (it was removed twice by Charlesdrakew and once by myself). In my removal I advised Santamoly not to re-add it again or they would be contravening 3RR. In response they opened a thread at DRN [112], to which I posted a comment. Despite this, they have subsequently re-added the material to the article again. PaleCloudedWhite (talk) 08:31, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

I have reverted his edit only because he did not wait for any other editors to enter the discussion and had difficulty finding the Request for Page Protection page. I have made other editors aware of the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject American television. I was told to come here from my request for page protection for this article. Spshu (talk) 13:40, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

• I only reverted him once after looking through the information and discussing it on the talk page. So him tagging my talk page with a edit warring warning is rather odd. Dream Focus 15:24, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

User:Spshu keep changing information in the Tribune Entertainment page by naming the information Tribune Studios by saying formerly Tribune Entertainment. I told him that Tribune Studios is a new production studio that was formed this year. And I've added sources indicating it to keep confusion and wanted to create a separate article with the information on the Tribune Studios production company with the references. See this history page for details I've noticed how Spshu loves to start edit wars with other users and he does it intentionally to get things his way. I told him on the talk page that this isn't Burger King where he can have it his way. And he gets away with it so many times! Look on his talk page! And I warned him not to do it again, but Spshu doesn't seem to get it. All Spshu does is get over to make himself look good by getting other users in trouble to make them look bad, and I'm sick of this! I've tried to be nice to Spshu and I know other users here at Wikipedia tried to be as well. I forgive Spshu, but he's got to go. 99.46.226.13 (talk) 13:00, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

99.46.226.13 is now trying to recruit editor for his side of the discussion: Favre1fan93, EdJohnston, Jedi94.

This isn't about who has the right information, but you tend to cherry pick then get mad that I used your source. Also, they you were caught making outright false statements about me. You edit where reverted then discussion WP:BRD, but instead of waiting for the discussion to be completed you reverted me and were reverted as there was no consensus. Spshu (talk) 17:55, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

O, and 99.46.226.13, no, you didn't try to be nice to me here. The first comments about me were prejudging me based on my talk page just like your comments above. Just because others hide or archive their edit warring warnings and I don't, you decide to judge me. So don't give me the line: "I've tried to be nice to Spshu ..."

I replaced inaccurate information with information that I had sourced from three separate credible publications, as opposed to Freshacconci's single inaccurate source. Freshacconci is maintaining that ALL of my edits are "unsourced opinion" because I mentioned photographic evidence supporting my edits, but was unable to upload the photo in question.

I have tried explaining how this works and you can see the discussions on the article talk page and his user talk page. The page has been restored and I have removed unsourced info that was left over from a different editor's changes.

Comments:

I have been trying to help edit this article for some time. This organization has serious problems to the extend that it has been left by 25 out of the 30 families it consisted of. There was a big scandal involving falsified documents and numerous breaches of the non profit law. I believe there is still investigation going on in Bulgaria regarding the falsified documents - meeting minutes- that were sent to the Ministry of Education in Bulgaria in order to obtain public funding for the organization. I have published independent sources to back my edits. The case was followed by the largest Bulgarian newspaper in the USA. The reported IP along with these two editors: Skylark2 and 74.66.235.121 do not allow me to add a word to the article they have created, reverting all my edits minutes after I post them. apparently they do not want the information about the controversy and the split of the organization to be available to the general public through Wikipedia. My goal is to help achieve a neutral article about the organization so the general public gets familiar with the facts. The article is most likely created by "Gergana" leadership itself in bad faith. It does not cite any independent source that back their version of the facts I am contesting. At least one citation does not have any relation to the fact it is supposed to support. The sources they cited are one interview with the current school principal, the organization website, and two announcement for a book being released.

My sources are two articles on the topic of the controversy published in the largest Bulgarian newspaper in the USA "BG Voice" written by a well established in the Bulgarian community investigating journalist named Yasen Darakov. Further, Mr. Darakov made sure to interview both sides of the story which is reflected in the article and he apparently checked his facts. I suspect Skylark2 and 71.249.192.199 are sock puppets of 74.66.235.121 who was temporarily blocked for an attempt to out me and for personal attacks. Their versions of the article are essentially the same. I have also reported 74.66.235.121 for COI. I have tried to discuss on the talk page but I got personal attacks and false citations only. Please help me resolve this issue. I am trying to help achieve neutrality and I don't want to engage in edit warring but my edits are deleted entirely all the time. This the version with my edits that is being deleted: [124] Thank you in advance.

Johnmoor appears to have stopped discussing the matters of dispute, ignoring the findings of the RfC which he wrote, and is simply reverting any edits now without even joining the relevant discussions. --Ronz (talk) 20:25, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

—

The initial issue in dispute is the use of primary sources in Grammarly, which Ronz tagged first with Template:Refimprove and when GeorgeLouis undid him, he simply undid GeorgeLouis and replaced Template:Refimprove with Template:Primary sources, saying on the talk page that "At a glance, it looks to need a more thorough cleanup. Anything not referenced with independent should be considered for removal." I talked to him about this, pointing him to WP:PSTS, that the use of primary sources at that point in Grammarly (excepted for the press release previously cited and now removed) is not in violation, but before talk could progress, Ronz was making even more bold edits and when he would not listen after pointing him to WP:EQ and WP:CIVIL, I undid his edits. Then when further discussions on the Grammarly talk page, my talk page and his could not bring us to agreement, what happened next can be seen through the Grammarly history. It seems that Ronz sees the use of primary sources as forbidden; an RfC was ongoing when he kept making disputed changes. Thank you. —JOHNMOORofMOORLAND (talk) 14:44, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Johnmoor still isn't discussing the content under dispute, nor is he answering basic questions about why he is unable to agree with the consensus from the RfC

Note that I originally identified the problem in June, the RfC was started in July, and here we are in late August unable to even make the changes agreed to by consensus of the RfC, while Johnmoor continues edit-warring.

Johnmoor's characterizations of my concerns of how to use primary sources are simply wrong, and demonstrate he's not reading what I've written from the very start 03:58, 26 June 2013 18:05, 11 July 2013. --Ronz (talk) 15:30, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

User:Dgenx 214 began adding game results of every game of the 2013 PBA Governors' Cup eliminations in its respective article last Sunday, August 18. I have warned him several times that it violates WP:INDISCRIMINATE and he will add more or less 90 results on the page when the tournament finishes. He just ignores all of my messages. When I posted a level 4 message on his talk page, he posted this in my talk page. After I explained it to him again fully the consequences of his additions, he became inactive. Then today, August 21, he created a sockpuppet (User:Net cust) and continues to add those results again. I warned him again but it was ignored (please see separate sockpuppet report) and just reverts back to his version without comment. -WayKurat (talk) 11:55, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

• User was warned time and time again about edit warring, which evidently in his case is more about ownership of article than anything – as the username implies. May or may not be related to User:Belcourt history. My edits were merely to restore the categories and remove unnecessary spacing, nothing controversial, yet this user keeps reverting them. Earlier in the page history shows the user removing a large amount of sourced material, with no valid explanation. Attempts by other editors to restore it have been futile. — MusikAnimal ^talk 15:16, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
• See also recently opened sockpuppet investigation. Regardless of result, semi-protection should be considered for this article as there is an ongoing trend of ownership of articles by users affiliated with the subject. — MusikAnimal ^talk 15:27, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Comments:

User is attempting to modify biographies of Democratic senators to only reflect partisan think tank rankings, rather than objective evaluations of their positions. After unsuccessfully attempting to use the dispute resolution process to force his opinion into the articles, he has now decided to edit war against multiple editors to get his viewpoints in regardless. He isn't here to improve these biographies, as his edit warring makes plainly clear (his wikilawyering efforts to find policy reasons for his edit warring aside). user:j (talk) 05:59, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Here are the edits I'm trying to make to the article on Mary Landrieu:

1) Update American Conservative Union rating from 2007 to 2012 data.

2) Update reference to National Journal rating which currently states: "In 2012, the National Journal rated her as the most conservative Senate Democrat." However the source provided actually says: "For 2012 votes, the public policy magazine National Journal ranked Pryor as the 49th-most conservative member of the Senate, with Hagan as the 52nd-most conservative and Landrieu as the 47th." I'm pretty sure that only 3 Senate Democrats are referenced.

3) Remove 2 claims that Landrieu is "one of the most conservative Democrats in the Senate" which are synthesis and are not supported by the facts provided once the above 2 edits are made.

4) Remove the following claim that "Her opposition to the public option played a major role in the crafting of the health insurance reform bills of 2010.", which is synthesis and not supported by the information provided in the article.

I've initiated a discussion on these changes on Talk:Mary Landrieu, which so far no one else has bothered to weigh in on. I absolutely refute (and resent) the allegations above that I'm not here to improve these biographies. Also, the person who filed this claim seems to have veered into the personal realm by referring to me as "edit warrior" in the version history for Mary Landrieu. I agree that there appear to have been multiple violations of Wikipedia policy here, but I don't believe I've committed them.CFredkin (talk) 15:14, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

You can resent the allegations all you like but the facts are that you remove references because you claim they are either "outdated", even though the article isn't just a summary of what she's been up to in the past year, it's a summary of her entire time in the Senate. Or because they're "inaccurate" or based on "synthesis", which is not the case, they're based on references provided. Tiller54 (talk) 16:42, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

The claim that Landrieu is one of the most conservative Democrats is sourced to a USA Today article, which references the National Journal rating I described above. It makes no other mention about Landrieu's conservative credentials. I'm not sure how you can take the actual National Journal comment (which was inaccurately quoted in the Wiki article and which references a total of 3 Democratic Senators) and infer that she's one of the most conservative Democrats in the Senate. The reality is that Landrieu's voting record has become significantly less conservative over the last several years. She may have once been one of the most conservative Democratic Senators, but that is on longer the case based on her voting record.CFredkin (talk) 16:57, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

I'm also not sure how you can possibly justify not updating an American Conservative Union rating (which was already in the article) from 2007 to 2012. The fact that this group is refusing this update shows where the real bias lies.CFredkin (talk) 16:57, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

1. This is irrelevant, you've been reported for edit warring, not for removing sourced content.

2. Ratings don't need "updating"! The rating from 2007 isn't suddenly "obsolete" because the article is a record of her entire senate tenure, not just 2012.Tiller54 (talk) 17:09, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

I see you've resorted to sock puppetry here and here in order to try to force your opinion on the article. Tiller54 (talk) 17:10, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

This is becoming more of an "Incident" and less about edit warring. The account CFredkin is a single purpose account that seems to be not only edit warring, but also using socks and/or meat puppets to try and get around 3RR(Bmmcatee and NewtonK6 seem obvious sock/meat puppets). Perhaps someone should file a SPI. Even if the editor has some constructive edits, he/she needs to tone down the POV driven edits and use the Talk pages, without edit warring and socking. Thanks. Dave Dial (talk) 17:12, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

If you really believe that sockpuppetry is going on here, then I definitely encourage you to file an SPI. I'm sure it's difficult for you to imagine that someone might see the bullying behavior that you guys are engaged in and not want to intervene. Since your goal seems to involve maintaining an obvious pro-candidate bias in the article, then why not just mirror her campaign site and be done with it? So far only one of you has engaged in the discussion on the Talk page and that was after this incident was filed. (And the arguments provided there were so absurd that to me it revealed your own agenda). CFredkin (talk) 17:26, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

I agree that there's an edit war going on here, and you guys instigated and perpetuated it. Not one of you has made a straight-faced argument about the edits I'm trying to make, but instead just unilaterally blocked them. I haven't been editing on Wikipedia for very long (as I'm sure you're aware), and I've made some mistakes in the past. But this isn't one of them. If there's a threat to Wikipedia, I can tell you that it's what you guys are doing. You can keep up the bullying and drive out different points of view, but that will only hurt the site in the end.CFredkin (talk) 17:44, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

The existence of User:CFredkin as a likely single-purpose account I ignored, but the appearance now of User:Bmmcatee and User:NewtonK6 is indeed getting to the point of ridiculousness. user:j (talk) 17:49, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Instead of implying that I'm engaged in sockpuppetry, perhaps you should try requesting an investigation.CFredkin (talk) 17:59, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

The request has been opened. It could also be meatpuppetry, but the correlation between your accounts is inexplicable. We'll see what happens there, though. user:j (talk) 18:04, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Oh, I think there are a couple of possible explanations. One of which I've already suggested.CFredkin (talk) 18:10, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Also, I'm sure you'll come back here and post the results of the investigation. Right?CFredkin (talk) 18:14, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

• Twinkle was less helpful there than I'd thought it would be. In any case, these are all reverts towards the version from yesterday, where Manning was referred to as Bradley and the article used male pronouns throughout. There's a lot of discussion on Talk:Chelsea Manning, although I've not checked for any explicitly addressing IFreedom1212's edits.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk:Port Imperial Street Circuit#Promotional runs also :Talk:Port Imperial Street Circuit#RFC

Comments:

Note that the information on promotional runs was initially added in March, but the rearranging of the article did not occur until later creating its own section. The blanking and reverting of the section is what I have listed here. Also, this is the second case of edit warring on the same article between the same two users, with a previous edit war ongoing from March to May over photos (example Prisonermonkey diff, example Djflem diff). Users were also warned about edit warring for the earlier fiasco. (diff) Typical editing style of both users is to revert the article while at the same time arguing their case on the talk page. The³5₉ (Talk) 07:58, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

I have relisted this as the original listing was archived with no action taken or even any attention given, and despite the presence of an RFC on the relevant talk, the edit-warring has restarted. --Falcadore (talk) 01:25, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Sorry for taking so long to getting around to responding to this, but here we go:

I feel there are three real issues here, and they're not really related to content, though content is at the centre of the dispute.

Firstly, I've always edited articles based on their subject. Articles naturally cover several subjects, and so I tend to rank those subjects in order of their importance to the article, and then edit the page to be most consistent with other articles that have the same primary subject. In this case, I feel that the most important subject related to this article is a Formula 1 racing circuit, and so I have tried to edit the article to be consistent with other articles on the same subject, like Circuit de Monaco and Silverstone Circuit. I believe that Djflem is approaching this article the same way, but has sought to make it consistent with articles on construction projects.

Secondly, I object to the paragrph in question because I feel it is compromised by the nature of the event. The paragraph describes drivers sampling the circuit, which is fine in and of itself, because pages like Circuit of the Americas do exactly the same thing. However, the demonstration runs were a part of a paid sponsor event designed to attract attention to the event. The drivers naturally spoke of the circuit in favourable terms so as to promote the race. And although the references supplied are reliable, I feel that the context of the event invalidates the value of the comments. Compare that to the reception section of the Circuit of the Americas page, which gives multiple opinions on specific sections of the circuit in a forum that is not paid for by a sponsor. However, Djflem disagrees with this, because the sources supplie are reliable, and so he feels that the context behind them does no matter at all.

Finally, and this is probably the most-pressing issue, is the matter of where the burden of responsibility to establish a consensus lies. I believe that, because no other page related to Formula 1 circuit contains a "Demo runs" section, Djflem's edits represent a major departure from the established editing practices on circuit pages, and that he therefore needs to demonstrate a consensus in favour of such a departure. On the other hand, Djflem feels that because the sources he has supplied are reliable, a consensus is needed to remove that content.

I don't deny that I have edit-warred, but there has been virtually no third-party support in resolving the issue. I have tried to get other editors into the debate, but have received no help. And despite his attempts to settle the edit-warring through the administrators, The359 has done very little to prevent the problem to begin with. Previous experience in dealing with Djflem has shown me that ignoring his disruptive edits only enables him, as he seems to be under the impression that bold edits are somehow immune from further editing until a consensus is proven. This would not normally be an issue, but it is a hallmark of a serial sockpuppeteer who has haunted the Formula 1 pages in the past (not that I believe Djflem is another sock as he has been around for some time; it's just a behaviour I have recognised as being consistent with anthoer disruptive editor). Prisonermonkeys (talk) 10:40, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

It would be less confusing if User:The359 User:Falcadore had given us a brand new report instead of recycling the last one. Nonetheless Prisonermonkeys and Djflem have reverted the same material twice again each in recent days. (See the reverts listed above: "On going after original listing was ignored"). In my opinion it's now time to issue blocks, unless each of the parties will agree to make no further reverts of the disputed material. EdJohnston (talk) 01:57, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Don't blame User:The359. I did it. I even added my own sig. I felt it additionally emphasises that the original report was archived with no action taken. If that was incorrect, then I apologise. First time for me on this page. --Falcadore (talk) 02:22, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the correction. To clarify, the ongoing war is between User:Djflem and User:Prisonermonkeys. Neither The359 nor Falcadore are parties to the dispute. As noted, the fight on this article has been going on since May. EdJohnston (talk) 02:40, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

EdJohnston invited me to comment before any action was taken. I can't necessarily agree to stop reverting the article, because I feel the content I am reverting compromises the article. It is, essentially, advertising. It might have been reported by a reliable source, but the event that the sources are reporting on was a paid sponsor event. It was designed to promoted the race, and so us going to be overwhelming positive. Every attempt at discussion elsewhere has failed, and when someone did comment in an RFC, they recommended that the section stay, withsubstantial changes made. Djflem has since presented thus as x"it's fine the way it is". He is yet to address a single issue that I have raised, and reverts edits on sight on the basis that his preferred version of edits was the one in place when the article wad frozen. If he had visited the page an hour later, we would be in the opposite situation.

Given that nobody seems to he paying attention to what I think is a serious issue, I felt something had to be done. This section of the article depends on a paid presentation being presented as news, which is a serious problem if Wikipedia presents it as fact. I am willing to work on an alternative solution, but it really doesn't help things when editors go straight to 3RRinstead if actually trying to resolve the issue on the talk page. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 08:18, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Several people have stated their belief that it is not advertising. Therefore the content is disputed. Therefore your belief that you should continue to remove it as a clear cut case of advertising is incorrect. I have no clue how much more simple it could be, really.

Editing is not 'edit warring'. AndyTheGrump (talk) 18:04, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Please not that unless I receive an apology from User:Me_and, I shall be making a formal complaint regarding this clearly malicious and unjustifiable 'report'. AndyTheGrump (talk) 18:09, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

• For that matter, 15:04, 22 August 2013 (UTC) shouldn't have been included in the above list; I don't think it's an obvious exemption, but it's clearly non-controversial. —me_and 18:15, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Ok, I'll give you one last chance to apologise, and withdraw this ridiculous complaint. AndyTheGrump (talk) 18:20, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

That is not an apology. The diffs you post cannot possibly be interpreted as evidence of 'edit warring'. I shall now report the matter at WP:ANI, as I can see no justification whatsoever for your behaviour. AndyTheGrump (talk) 18:28, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

As I have clearly stated prior to this discussion that I have no intention of moving into 3RR territory, and as I have also been the only one making any attempt to resolve the disputed edits - without reply from Jimthing - you accusation of "gaming the system" is verging on a personal attack and I suggest you withdraw it. Keri (talk) 00:17, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

This user Keri has been deliberately undoing perfectly acceptable See Also links, with little to no reasoning, except their own personal preference, and certainly without discussing beforehand. This is why I undid his edit warring actions accordingly, as they also refused to allow me a few minutes to actually respond, before doing his undo warring, which is entirely unacceptable. Allowing another user ZERO time to write a decent explanation of relevance (which I am now doing on one of those talk pages accordingly, when I have time between doing other things!!) is no way to behave to another users hard work collating relevant links together across multiple pages.

• Comment(edit conflict)Hello

The collection of diffs here looks overwhelming in the first look but there are aspects that Dogmaticeclectic did not mention. For instance:

• The diffs in List of features removed in Windows 8 belong different dates: 25 March, 22 August and 25 August. Neither 71.143.229.137, User:JonMerel or User:Lukeno94 made any objection to may reverts; nor they counter-reverted. So, what we have here is three BRDs, all three solved.
• Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page is most amusing: In the link that Dogmaticeclectic provided, User:Socrates2008 supported my removal proposal. Dogmaticeclectic has not even commented! How on earth is this the Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page?
• In case of Windows Movie Maker, we talked in Talk:Windows Movie Maker. A consensus is formed. I don't know how can Dogmaticeclectic attach a diff in 27 December 2012 to a diff in August 2013 but User:Damaster98 was content in 27 December. Even the consensus in August was formed with the help of Damaster98. Here is the missing Diff that predates my first revert.
• One important point is that Dogmaticeclectic never made a single attempt to communicate with me or any other involved party.

Best regards,
Codename Lisa (talk) 16:56, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

There is no time limit for an edit warring report except that the edit warrior must be active - hence the other, recent diffs above - nor is it required that the reporting user be involved in talk page discussion. Also, contrary to your statements, in neither of these cases was consensus actually established - you just continued reverting. Finally, you made that edit before User:Socrates2008 posted that message, so don't call it a "proposal" in that context - and in any case that message did not support the entirety of that edit. Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 16:58, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi. There are no arbitrary limits, no. But Silence means consensus. If User:Damaster98 did not object in 27 December, he is content. In truth, not only he did not object, he backed me up in the recent discussion. So, the is a consensus. Same goes with 71.143.229.137, User:JonMerel or User:Lukeno94. If they are content with my review of their edits, there is no dispute, let alone an edit war.

As for Talk:Windows Movie Maker, I'll allow others to be the judge of that.

Best regards,
Codename Lisa (talk) 17:20, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

You're only bringing up users who haven't spoken out against the edits in question - how convenient for you. What about users like myself and User:DeNoel? Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 17:31, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Yes, I deliberately bring up editor who haven't spoken because it is exactly that element that gives me the green light to act: Qui tacet consentire videtur, ubi loqui debuit ac potuit (He who is silent is taken to agree; he ought to have spoken when he was able to). As for User:DeNoel: We discussed with him. (Your link proves that you knew it.) He insisted that Windows XP is in the source while neither me nor Damaster98 could spot it. Eventually, he gave up.

As for you yourself, you must attempt to participate in consensus-building process if you wish to be acknowledged beyond that of an angry reverter. Instead of you attempt to force an overriding will – while pretending not being aware of the discussion – and then file an EW report – while exhibiting knowledge of the discussion which you previously denied. Your methods so far have been gaming the system, deceit and bullying. Try a polite message once in a while; believe me, you get results. Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 20:23, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

• Note. I don't normally note this because it's fairly obvious but Dogmaticeclectic has an extensive history of edit warring blocks on Microsoft-related articles. They also are heavily focused on Microsoft articles. Finally, there's a fair amount of bad blood between Dogmaticeclectic and Codename Lisa. I'm not sure if there's enough here for a WP:BOOMERANG. Although I am not WP:INVOLVED, I'll let another admin evaluate it from a fresher perspective.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:51, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
  • I haven't been edit warring since those blocks, while the other user has. (Also, calling 3 blocks an "extensive history" is just laughable.) Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 16:53, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Hi. The part "there's a fair amount of bad blood between Dogmaticeclectic and Codename Lisa" is unfortunately correct. The reason is that my edits are also focused in computing area. Another reason is that Dogmaticeclectic is not open to discussion at all. His modus operandi is BRRRRR(someone is blocked) or BRR(disagreeing party stops just not to get involved in an edit war). The only form of discussion he is ever engage in is sending templates. There is one exception however: User talk:Codename Lisa#Regarding Microsoft Mahjong. This discussion is so rare that I still cannot believe my eyes. It should go to the hall of the fame. But I am afraid I stand by everything I said here: User talk:Dogmaticeclectic#Abuse of admin templates. Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 17:08, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
    • Did you seriously just link to statements by you that were completely and utterly debunked by multiple other users (including an administrator)? Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 17:12, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
      • Hi. If it is indeed what is going to occur, then why do you object? I'll let others to be the judge of that. Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 17:20, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
        • What? Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 17:22, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Dogmaticelectic, some of your arguments border on the nonsensical. It's obvious that I agree with Codename Lisa's position, and it is hilariously obvious that you are going out of your way to revert Codename Lisa simply because they made the edits. Take the addition of unsourced information into an article by an IP, which, as far as I'm aware, hadn't been there previously. Codename Lisa rightly removed it, and you reverted simply because she had removed it. A user doesn't have to comment on a talk page to show opposition to your edits; reverting you shows that. Honestly, I'm sick to death of watching people improve Microsoft-related articles, and then get reverted by you, Dogmaticelectic, because you don't like their edits. And accusations of WP:OWN are ironic and hypocritical in the extreme. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 17:37, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Actually, it is you and the user being reported here, along with a couple of others, who have banded together to make highly controversial - and often policy-violating - changes to Microsoft-related articles and attempt to have anyone who dares disagree blocked.

By the way, I suggest you back up your accusation that I am "going out of [my] way to revert Codename Lisa simply because they made the edits", or I will take it as a personal attack. Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 17:41, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

• Take it how you will, it's an observation that seems very accurate. I already backed it up within my initial statement, after all. And cut the bullshit about "policy-violating changes" - you wholesale revert anything you disagree with, including the removal of unsourced content. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 18:59, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

• The user being reported keeps "wholesale revert"ing anything that happens to be unsourced instead of tagging it, even if it's not WP:EXCEPTIONAL. Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 19:05, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

• Declined Codename Lisa has not done anything to merit a block, or even a warning, in my view. Mark Arsten (talk) 21:02, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Comments:
This newly registered user seems to be pushing a POV against the Council for Higher Education Accreditation in particular and against higher education accreditation in the United States in general. They have successfully converted the article into an attack page against the organization. They have been edit-warring not only to change content, but also to repeatedly remove cleanup templates. These have been massive changes and it has all happened very quickly; if I weren't WP:INVOLVED, I would have semi-protected the page to foster discussion. User is also starting to edit-war on List of unrecognized higher education accreditation organizations: (page history) and they have posted some of the same anti-CHEA content on Talk:List of recognized higher education accreditation organizations, where the user and I had the following interaction over comment positioning and refactoring of the talk page: [246], [247], [248], [249], and [250]. I also gave the user a templated warning about talk-page refactoring, which appears to have been heeded. --Orlady (talk) 18:32, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

• The editor has said so himself that he does not care about "Wikipedia's silly policy," which indicates a lack of competency. Because things did not go his way on The Thief and the Cobbler, he will ignore any request to discuss his edits on a talk page. He will immediately revert any warnings added to his talk page and prefers "discussing" in the edit summary of each revert. All his edits consist of pushing Ray Carney quotes and edit warring. A 2-week block did not change his behavior. To quote Einstein, "insanity is doing something over and over and expecting different results." IMO, this editor is simply disruptive and has no place here. --ThomasO1989 (talk) 21:46, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Note that the first edit is by User:Murrallli, and the latter three are by User:14.139.95.98. However, the IP account essentially admitted to be Murrallli. After the first revert by the IP, I reverted, with a note in the edit summary recommending logging in, and I left this message on User Talk: Murrallli. After I did so, the IP responded on my talk page with [en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Qwyrxian&diff=570349752&oldid=570316209 this edit], where he states explicitly that it "doesn't matter whether he logs in or not"--this, to me, is tacit admission of being the same user. Furthermore later, Murrallli did log in to remove my warning/explanation from his talk page. Lastly, if you look at the numerous sections at the bottom of my talk page, you'll see comments from both Murrallli and the IP, and the writing style is exactly the same, with the same types of errors and formatting. As such, they are clearly the same user and this needs to be treated as 4 reverts by the same person.

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: here on my talk page and as the only edit on User Talk:14.139.95.98

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: I made several comments on my talk page (note basically most of the last 7 sections, since this user likes to put each paragraph in a new section). Also, I left a formal explanation for all users to see on Talk:Cinema of Andhra Pradesh in this edit.

Comments:

Note that in addition to the 3RR violation, the user is also breaking WP:NPA by labeling my good faith edits as vandalism (something I asked them not to do), and the edit warring is being done to reinsert POV text, unsourced text, and sources that clearly do not meet WP:RS to the article. I don't know if the IP is static or not; if it isn't, it may be necessary to semi-protect the article in addition to the 3RR block. Qwyrxian (talk) 08:05, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Addendum: The IP address has just reverted again in this edit, meaning even by itself it's passed 4 reverts. I won't re-revert on the article at the moment because I'm at 3 reverts, even though the article now is significantly in violation of policies and guidelines. Qwyrxian (talk) 09:03, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

• It's apparently static.[258] Murilllo scarcely seems to be trying to hide their identity with using the IP; these posts on my page state that they've forgotten their password and are unable to log in. They also make the same foolish accusations of disruption and vandalism (this from the guy who wrote "stop abusing fellow editors as vandals" to Qwyrxian[259]), with conspiracy thrown in; my conspiracy with Qwyrxian, I think. They seem aggressively resistant to advice and information. Bishonen | talk 10:59, 27 August 2013 (UTC).

Kindly check, the edit summaries, first 3RR was disobeyed by User:Qwyrxian, Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Murallli (talk • contribs)

Murallli, I've moved your comment to the bottom because threads should go in order.

Sadly, though, I just looked back at the history of the page, and see that I did, in fact, violate 3RR. I forgot that the first edit of my cleanup was a revert (when counting myself, before, I was thinking that I had just started editing in response to a change, not that I'd specifically undone another user's change). Since I've crossed 3RR, I will accept a block; note, though, that enough evidence has arisen that I have filed an SPI on Murallli/IP at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Padmalakshmisx; if I'm right (and one of the admins with long term experience with Padmalakshmisx thinks I am), then my latter 3 reverts might qualify for the exception of reverting a long term sockmaster abuser, basically a de jure banned user. But I do freely admit that I went one revert too far, should have been more careful, and accept a block (short term, hopefully). Qwyrxian (talk) 11:54, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Note – IP blocked for 6 months, as there are several previous checkuser blocks on it. Interesting it shows back up right now. As Murrallli has been editing in a generally disruptive fashion beyond the edit war, blocked for a week. For Qwyrxian, given the egregious behavior by Murrallli and the fact that Qwyrxian self-reported and took responsibility, can't even bring myself to pull out a trout. Call it a goldfish, but do be more careful of 3RR next time. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 13:45, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Richard BB appears to have also made a succession of reverts on the article, however, citing that Adelove25's edits contain unsourced + undue content; and to their credit, not only warned the editor, but asked that they take it to the talk page (here and here). —MelbourneStar☆^talk 09:41, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

I have now ceased reverting this user's edits as I'd much rather not continue an edit war (nor be blocked from editing because of one). I apologise for any defiance of 3RR, but it was initially intended to cut out original research and non-notable topics to the article. However, given that this isn't blatant vandalism, I will not be reverting any more of this user's edits. — Richard BB 09:46, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

My comments on the talk page are being ignored, just like the comments of other editors. User:VQuakr does not have consensus and does not respond on the talk page before he pushes his unsubstantiated POV. User:Sopher99 is being very disruptive as well. He was warned here [275] USchick (talk) 00:50, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

This really is not the correct forum for non-edit warring issues, but would you care to provide examples (diffs) of where I "did not respond on the talk page" or added unreferenced information? VQuakr (talk) 02:18, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Edits 1,2,3 is an edit war that still needs to be resolved. An unsubstantiated claim is being made. This edit 4 [276] was discussed on the talk page earlier today. Since there were no objections, I made the edit hours later. USchick (talk) 00:55, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

There has been a massive amount of editing, pov pushing, and format mistakes made by users and ips alike. Its a current event, and perhaps the most polemical international issue right now. Vandalism on this page is frequent and it is currently awaiting semi-protection. I don't think any block is necessary, but page protection/semi protection is. Sopher99 (talk) 00:53, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

• Here VQuakr reverted an edit and then asked for new consensus to justify his edit war [277] Earlier in the day consensus was reached to delete this section.
• In this discussion Talk:2013 Ghouta attacks#Twitter He's trying to convince me that spreading international propaganda and his personal POV is perfectly acceptable as long as it's properly sourced. Perhaps he needs to be mentored on how to work collaboratively on articles of international significance. USchick (talk) 03:16, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
• Comment I can and should block the editors involved in edit warring. For a start, I've fully protected the page. Discuss on the talk page of the article and call me or any other administrator when you feel you've reached consensus on various issues involved with the article.

User doesn't really seem to get how sourcing works despite numerous attempts to explain. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 13:48, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

If Neil is going to mention ethnonym Slav, and definition of such from Latin, Greek etc, then why not add three words, ie "from Slavic glory"? It is a fact that Slavs defined the word Slav as glory. I don't understand Neils racism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ZYXW9876 (talk • contribs) 14:10, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Adding personal attacks -- accusing an editor of racism -- is not a good thing to add to your obvious edit warring. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 15:01, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

And now a baseless accusation of sockpuppetry [287]. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 17:17, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

SPA. Edit-warring in violation of WP:NCMAC despite multiple warnings. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 14:33, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Dang. I wanted to submit this too but must have forgotten to press save after preview. Note that WP:ARBMAC is also applicable here; warning given: [288]. Editor may also have been socking with Tannosuke (talk · contribs) and Ifestio (talk · contribs); the sudden influx of all these edit-warring-only accounts is rather striking. Fut.Perf. ☼ 15:09, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Sorry about that Future, didn't want to upstage you. :) I also agree with you regarding the socking concerns. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 15:13, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

• Blocked – for a period of indefinitely for not being here to build an encyclopedia. This user's contributions consist only of disruptive editing and edit warring against resolutions like ARBMAC and NCMAC. De728631 (talk) 16:33, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Note also their unblock request wherein Thenazgullord announces future sockpuppetry. De728631 (talk) 16:42, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
