Brettlm is repeatedly restoring disputed content to a WP:BLP that attempts to draw a negative conclusion about the subject based on the use of two sources, neither of which directly support that conclusion. This same edit was previously reverted by another admin Paul Erik, based on the same WP:SYNTH concerns. -- Ponyobons mots 21:31, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- No negative conlcusion or any conclusion was presented my with edits. Here is the extact copy. Citations are direct primary evidence of each statement. I was not aware of the 3-edit rule. No matter. I am requesting arbitration on this issue because these facts are critical to documenting the current economic situation. It appears some tenured editors like Ponyo are drawing their own conclusions and imposing their bias on repressing facts.
- Edits: In July 2020 Macklem said "If you've got a mortgage or if you're considering to make a major purchase [sic], or you're a business and you are considering making an investment you can be confident that interest rates will be low for a long time." [citation] Twenty months later The Bank of Canada began increaseing interest rates at a historic rate. [citation] Brettlm (talk) 21:38, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- The place to make that argument is the article talk page, which I explained to you here, not at this noticeboard after you've restored the disputed content four times despite warnings.-- Ponyobons mots 21:51, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- I tried to resolve the dispute there. As part of the dispute arbitration process I am required to attempt beyond the usual. I was not able to resolve the dispute with you imposing you own bias and conclusions on factual evidence. You will be contacted by Wikipedia as part of the official dispute. Good luck.

This editor has been consistently blanking another editor's user subpage with a list of "hedgehog socks", which is fine to have in your userspace. After multiple reverts by the user (plus one by a different user and one by me), they have not stopped. They have not only violated the 3RR but also the 7RR (I know that doesn't exist, but I made it up to emphasize how much they have reverted). interstatefive 02:40, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

Clear cut edit warring and page ownership. Aman Kumar Goel (Talk) 21:02, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- Please see the discussion on Talk:Jawaharlal Nehru started at 02:10, 30 May 2023 (UTC). I started the discussion to be constructive and reach a consensus after I learned about editing warring and the Three-Revert Rule. For context, User:Aman.kumar.goel has seemingly agreed about the edits I made to the main body of the article, but User:Aman.kumar.goel keeps reverting the lead without providing a proper justification. I made the most recent revert at 20:01, 30 May 2023 (UTC) after User:Aman.kumar.goel reverted the lead without reaching consensus, and without providing a justification, or attempting to engage in any debate to that end. As for the rules, I was first informed about edit warring at 17:29, 30 May 2023 (UTC), and the Three-revert-rule at 19:47, 29 May 2023 (UTC). Since then, I have made edits at 19:49, 29 May 2023 (UTC), 01:34, 30 May 2023 (UTC), and 03:22, 30 May 2023 (UTC) within a 24 hour period. The most recent revert at 20:01, 30 May 2023 (UTC) was after the 24 hour period. To clarify, I have slept and woke up after reading to improve the article, and working on it all day. It is not strategic on my end to get around the rule, if anyone is wondering. Additionally, I should stress that the revert at 01:34, 30 May 2023 (UTC) has little to do with any of the previous editing dispute. Another user User talk:Capitals00 reverted reference formatting I had done, which is why I am confused and state "this was not the subject of an edit war?". I then mentioned the editing dispute because I think User talk:Capitals00 reverted something that he did not mean to. As such, I contend that the revert 01:34, 30 May 2023 (UTC) should not be considered evidence of edit-warring and the Three Revert Rule. I only hope to be constructive and engaging to any and all feedback, and responded to User:Aman.kumar.goel, and another user User:DaxServer on Talk:Jawaharlal Nehru about the disputes. At all times, I offered compromise and willingness to make changes to reach consensus. Eventually, User:Aman.kumar.goel seemingly stopped disputing edits to the main body of the article. However, the user is now still reverting the lead, without any justification. In this, I have been supported by the user User:Neveselbert, who reverted User:Aman.kumar.goel's reverting of the lead at 18:06, 30 May 2023 (UTC), with the edit summary of "rv disruptive reversion of good-faith edits". I contend that onus is on the User:Aman.kumar.goel to provide a justification for reverting the lead, without offering justifications on the talk page, or information on the edit summary. I contend that the User:Aman.kumar.goel is displaying edit-warring and page ownership behavior in attempting to maintain a preferred version of the lead section without any constructing debate about changes, or the lack thereof. Exdg77 (talk) 22:25, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- Addendum. You can also observe on my talk page User_talk:Exdg77 that I responded to User:Aman.kumar.goel's notification of an editing dispute by offering to debate and reach consensus, around 19:58, 29 May 2023, just 10 minutes he wrote on my page. I was ignored, and User:Aman.kumar.goel kept escalating his reverts until it has now come to this. In any case, another user User:Fowler&fowler has reverted the lead too. I had sounded him out on his talk page to debate the changes. I am going to defer to that user's rationale for doing so for now. There is no editing dispute from my perspective for the time being.

Thank you so much Pppery and Bbb23 - I was at my wit's end with this one. I didn't want to go to ANI, because it's a cesspit basically, but these edits are widespread and wholly disruptive/unhelpful. I had reported it to an admin, but she didn't take it up. Is there any way to rollback the whole lot, because there's very little merit in any of it - we're looking at non-existent 'communities', banged in with a template that lists a bibliography of books that don't even mention them, images that are recaptioned from generic 'desert picture' to specifically mention a place that is only a marker in a GIS map. There are also duplicates like Al O'shoosh for Al-Ashoosh and Al Meryal / Mereiyeel - and redlinks on pretty much every page. AND mad claims like the Rub Al Khali being in the desert south of Dubai - it's not. I can't see merit to any of it, but I also don't have time for the cleanup... Best - and thanks again - Alexandermcnabb (talk) 04:14, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- I suspect that the new creations will be handled properly by New Page Patrol without the need for an explicit cleanup effort, and Bbb23 has already draftified many of them. I'll look more closely at the edits to existing articles when I get a chance tomorrow. * Pppery * it has begun... 04:26, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks again Pppery - I've started in and will also come back and likely PROD most of the new creations and generally restore pages that have had their content replaced by GIS markers and the like. There's quite a lot of it, though! Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 04:40, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- I spent way too much time reviewing all the article creations. My decision as to whether to draftify them was not exactly scientific. It was more how "ugly" they were in terms of material and references. Also, I did not verify references because that would have taken way longer, and I didn't have the energy or the stomach for it. Obviously, if the places are hoaxes - or even if there are enough hoax claims - they can be tagged WP:G3. The articles can also be nominated for deletion. The drafts can too, but deleting drafts through discussion is harder. I still don't understand how the user was able to so rapidly create the pages. Were they copying something from somewhere? If so, I couldn't figure out the source. Why were they using a additional citations needed maintenance template dated July 2016 for all the articles? Maybe I'm just overly cynical, but there's something else going on here, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out what.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:32, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- I reverted all of the article overwrites except for Lahbab where the old stable version was entirely unsourced. I'll leave the new article creations for new page patrol to handle * Pppery * it has begun... 15:51, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- Jad appears to have been using a PDF of some Municipality land usage demarcation document, and copy/pasting a template of core content into each new article (the bibliography, for instance, is just two random UAE-focused books, there's no linkage to these places) with the name, as usual a transliteration from Arabic, and faking a picture using generic desert images from Commons. Lahbab is little more than a roundabout with some shops and a truck stop, but I'll try and expand that article tomorrow as well as try and review the state of things/creations. I'd hoped notifying an admin would have nipped this issue in the bud earlier, but am glad the template (presumably) triggered this process! Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 16:29, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- I think that's everything fixed now, thanks again Pppery and Bbb23. There's some mess in the template Neighbourhoods and Areas of Dubai that I can't work out because I'm a dolt, but I think reason has generally been restored. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 06:51, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

The four edits that Czello labels as "reverts" above are only three. The fourth edit is my original contribution to the article, and not a revert. Despite linking to the talk page, Czello himself has done two reverts himself, and has made no effort to resolve the issue on the talk page. Also, this is the second time that Czello falsely labels an original edit of mine as a "revert" (see here [14]). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cortador (talk • contribs) 16:20, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

- No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the 3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria. The above-cited diffs do not clearly seem to qualify as reverts; they're not marked as such, and seem to be more mostly a case of Skyerise adding material that other editors did not want in the article, or removing something as unsourced (which is perfectly permissible as long as it isn't escalated into edit warring). I allow that if they consisted of clear reverts of the same thing, more or less, there would have been a block.
It also seems from the last post on the talk page, and the absence of any edits to the article since then, that this dispute has been resolved.
Nonetheless I implore Skyerise to familiarize themselves with WP:SELFCITE: "Using material you have written or published is allowed within reason ...". In the future, it might be a good idea to actually check what policy actually says before embarking on an edit war in which you claim to be the one enforcing policy since rulemaking by assumption isn't a defense to edit warring (and to be fair, neither are most policies).

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: This is the 2nd time this IP user has engaged in this sort of behaviour over the last month.

I have not mentioned the current issues on the article talk page, but did attempt to do so on their user talk page and mentioned how the source I suspect they were using was out of date in my own revert.

Comments:
This really should not be an issue. I can somewhat understand the point of view they held in the previous controversy that they were blocked for, which has since been resolved by adding a note showing both sides of the issue, but this is a clear-cut case of denying simple facts. Verifying that their source is outdated is simple, as it only requires being able to count to 12, while they have refused to explain how they calculate their percentages, which is a basic mathematical equation. 58.333 rounding down to 58.33 instead of rounding up to 58.34 is not something that any rational person should be disputing. If my own behaviour also seems out of line, I apologize, as the fact that this is even an issue at all is extremely frustrating and I tried to give valid reasoning behind my initial reverts of the IP user's reverts before stopping and resorting to this process. PhinsUp23 (talk) 13:04, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
- Exactly. This reporting is completely uncalled for and a waste of time. Yet you did it anyway. 220.236.126.177 (talk) 13:09, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
- Both editors blocked The IP for three months, given their previous history of being blocked for this, and doing it again right off the end of the two-week block I imposed when this issue was last before us (Or was it at RFPP? I can't remember). The user's BATTLEGROUND mentality isn't helping, either.
But they are not solely at fault here. I have blocked Phins for 24 hours as he has not been blocked for anything previously. However, previous good conduct does not translate into a free pass when users edit war with known edit warriors (and Phins' report above demonstrates his awareness of at least my previous block). We cannot let ourselves be dragged down. Daniel Case (talk) 19:37, 2 June 2023 (UTC)

This report is really unnecessary. I made the bold move to rename the page 'AS Val and VSS Vintorez' to "VSS and AS" because that is their respective official nomenclature. You reverted it due to an issue of 'COMMON NAME'. Then we had a discussion on the talk page where I suggested to rename the article to 'VSS (Vintorez) and AS (Val)' as a middle ground option. You did not bother to leave a comment on my suggestion. So after a week I took the liberty to assume you were fine with that change. Thus, I moved the page to 'VSS (Vintorez) and AS (Val)'. The new tittle does not contradict the common name rule and at the same time gives distinction to the rifles official designation and their project names (Vintorez and Val). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Guns & Glory (talk • contribs) 00:59, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

This repeated behavior needs to get a stop finally. This IP editor, who acts WP:NOTHERE, constantly believes that Unicorn is not supposed to be an adult show, but when others watch the show, it is considered adult animation. It is especially apparent as it airs on Adult Swim. The IP editor did not listen what I said to their talk page, so I assume NOTHERE behavior yet again. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 02:09, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

As per the preceding report, user has been edit warring to include contentious BLP material into the article and has been blocked for the edit warring.
I would like to add the following points, given that I feel the case is not limited to simple edit warring. I'd like to ask Admin Bbb23 to assess if further sanctions are required.
- User has a history [46] of edit warring, having been previously blocked three times for edit-warring. While the blocks were from 2014, I note that user has made very few edits each year between 2014 and now [47].
- In two of the edit summaries [48], [49] used by user in the above diffs, user refused to address their edits by claiming that the reverting user was required to gain consensus for content removal ("Take it to talk if you disagree"), violating WP:ONUS. User only went to the talk page after a second user reverted. Afterwards, user made multiple edits in other sections related to similar BLP issues.
- As mentioned by Gugrak, in two of the edit summaries [50] [51] used by user in the above diffs, user made personal attacks against the reverting editor by casting aspirations. While the user "withdrew" the first PA, they made a second PA in the following edit summary.

Constant edit warning with no consensus and going for beliefs instead
I'm not going to give preference to one side over another; I protected the version of the article that was current. Use the talk page and get a consensus for the edits (with sources supporting the content, not just WP:OR). @Visokor and BaldiBasicsFan: I want to be unambiguously clear on this: Since the page was protected you both have made comments on Wikipedia about the state of the article and have continued editing elsewhere, but still have not used the talk page and certainly haven't provided reliable sources for the content. The page was protected so that discussion could take place in lieu of editors being blocked. If this same edit warring resumes after protection expires, that editor will be blocked for edit warring. - Aoidh (talk) 23:19, 8 June 2023 (UTC)- I used to the talk page to discuss this, and used an IndieWire source for reference.

Persistent edit warring at attacks on reverts 𝑭𝒊𝒍𝒎𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔 (talk) 19:39, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
the editors in question keep reverting any changes made to the article, and they keep vandalising it themselves. when people reverte their vandalism, they reverte the revert, endlessly, and accuse of edit warring, but it is they who are edit warring.
attempts to talk to them through the talk page are not useful either. they are not editing in good faith. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.40.219.187 (talk) 19:42, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

I've witnessed some serious edit warring by Kesc4399 and Sundayclose regarding the article of Stephen King, going on since May, maybe longer. Kesce4399 has been adding some things that have been likely unsourced and reverted by Sunnyclose. This needs to be solved. BattleshipMan (talk) 03:49, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

- This is simply cite spam using an unpublished source. Editor has not attempted communication. Adakiko (talk) 09:33, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
- To add to the above, the source in question isn't even a paper on 'dark energy'. It is much more general, and amounts to little more than the author's claim that physicists are wrong about more or less everything. Run of the mill pseudoscience. AndyTheGrump (talk) 09:56, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
- The real pseudoscience is exactly those unperceivable things named with 'dark'. Throwing something into the unknown part of reality for solving the theorical problem is not the real rigorous science. It is time, from a much more general view, to consider the common defects in the principle behind all the previous measure methods or physical laws summarized by the predecessors rather than keep adding new theories or new phenomena for amending the old cracks. Otherwise, the development of science will become bogged down in mud and also lead all people not to the real nature of reality but to a totally strange magic one.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [diff] 8:38, 9 June 2023 (UTC) I attempted to bring user Malaysia Skyline to the above page's talk page, but zero response from that user.
Comments:
User @Malaysia Skyline: is engaging in an edit war on multiple pages, George Town, Penang, Penang and Iskandar Malaysia. Attempts to start a discussion were met with zero response. Corncaker (talk) 08:59, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- Note Malaysia Skyline initially filed a report against Corncaker but later removed it after I pointed out WP:BOOMERANG. Malaysia Skyline then attempted to delete this new report. Both users appear to have violated WP:3RR. — Czello (music) 09:05, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Corncaker is the first one to start this edit warring, the original edit(Greater Penang as third largest) has been in place for almost a month but he/she was the one who revert that edit without ANY proper reasoning. Malaysia Skyline (talk) 09:19, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- @Malaysia Skyline: Without ANY proper reasoning, you say? You did not see the earlier issue about Iskandar Malaysia's contradictory population figures? You did not see the response I posted on the same page's talk page? (8:50, 2 June 2023 (UTC))
- All attempts to start a discussion on the proper channel, the talk pages, were met with zero response from you. I leave it to the admins to take a proper check at Malaysia Skyline's edits. Corncaker (talk) 09:25, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- I guess what that user meant was not regarding the the contradictory population figures, but instead the updated administrative area by IRDA that was even passed into law by Malaysian federal government in 2019 to double the size of Iskandar Malaysia. So perhaps that was why the user claimed that Greater Penang is no longer the second largest urban area in the country by population, and that is true according to Banci 2020. Obsolete information in the official website also cannot be a guideline to write any Wikipedia content. You guys both have mistake, Malaysia Skyline did not see the talkpage and you did not understand what Malaysia Skyline originally meant. That's why we have this issue here. 2405:800:8030:DFCC:1:0:5840:D9E5 (talk) 09:43, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- Iskandar Malaysia's own website maintains only 5 local governments, irrespective of what user Malaysia Skyline claims of updated administrative area (http://www.iskandarmalaysia.com.my/location-map). Pasir Gudang was elevated to a city in 2020, so their own website seems current, even going by their copyright year as their footer.
- Total population of Iskandar Malaysia's 5 local governments (as calculated) from Banci 2020 was 2,214,006.
- Greater Penang's was 2,833,957.
- The addition of a few districts into Iskandar Malaysia does not add up to even 2.7 million (235,715 for Kluang, 130,756 for Kota Tinggi). Until and unless there is a more official, reliable source than the national census saying Iskandar Malaysia's population exceeds Greater Penang's, refer to List of local governments in Malaysia and do the math. Corncaker (talk) 10:05, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- I am not interested in the dispute. But like what I said, it is very common for a website, even a government website to not being updated continuously, government's official announcement for me is more accurate. And also the population data is not correct for both districts, eg. Kota Tinggi should have 222,382 people. 2405:800:8030:DFCC:1:0:585E:EADC (talk) 10:13, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

[edit]User has recently added two long statements of reactions from city officials regarding Keechant Sewell's resignation.
I removed their edit, asking them not to add such long statements [77] and they reverted back without explanation. After I reverted them a second time and asked them to seek a comsensus for their changes, they restored their edit a second time, again with no explanation.
Following this they left a warning on my talk page. And he has still refused to seek a consensus. Their formatting obviously also isn't per Wikipedia's standards nor they've bothered to correct it. Linkin Prankster (talk) 18:44, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Diff of ANEW notice posted to user's talk page: notice
Comments:
This is part of an ongoing edit war between users who believe it is appropriate to refer to Ben Roberts-Smith as a war criminal and users who do not. After I warned Jack4576 for edit warring (which took place after the reverts presented above), he denied edit warring and ordered me to never post at his talk page again: "I am not engaged in an edit war, let alone 'currently involved in edit warring'."
"Your accusation is improper. Please never post on my talk page again Nythar"
. The first claim is false. He has clearly edit warred, and yet he refuses to get the point. Nythar (💬-🍀) 13:29, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
Jack4576's response (copied from his talk page):
"Only TWO of those diffs are about the use of the word "war criminal" in the opening sentence of the lede.- The other edits are about the use of criminal in OTHER areas of the article.
- I did not revert another editor three times.
- I request a WP:BOOMERANG on Nythar for this pointy ANI nomination please.
- One of the diffs you've quoted in the ANI is a change of a single letter 'a' to 'A'.
- This ANI nomination is in part motivated, no doubt, by our recent run-ins at ANI over AfD in the past."
- Please copy the above, verbatim, to the ANI, as I am currently blocked from editing in that space. Thanks.
Jack4576 (talk) 13:35, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
Jack4576's second response (copied from his talk page, where he requested the above response be stricken):
- After reading the context more closely, I can see that the timestamp of this diff on 13 June 2023; (which was a reversion of Iskandar323)
- is within 24 hours of these two instances of reversion:
- Further Reversion number (1) (consisting of these two edits) which reverted Morbidthoughts for a first time
- Further reversion number (2) (consisting of this edit) which reverted Morbidthoughts for a second time
- and that I can see this was an breach of the 3RR. As arguably, the content of these edits overlap.
- However, in my defence, I considered the editorial choice of whether to include the phrase "war criminal" in the opening sentence of the article, was a separate issue as to whether the term "criminal" should be used in the page at all.
- I accept any punishment meted out in response for that breach; and I apologise for the 24 hour breach.
- It was not my intention to edit war. I withdraw my request that Nythar be boomeranged.
- Kind regards
- Jack4576 (talk) 13:59, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
Nythar decided they would drive by tag my usertalk for edit warring or I wouldn't be aware of this. can an admin please do a check if they are User:Gugrak. Nythar might have thought I was up to three reverts myself if they disregarded the fact that one of my reverts was reverting a sock and therefore I was up to two. It's almost 1am in the morning here, can admin please review Nythar reverts on the page and if they violate 3RR sanction appropriately. AlanStalk 14:51, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
- @AlanS: I noticed that you continued the edit war today, the same edit war you were blocked for on 4 June; however, I didn't report you because you hadn't reverted 4 edits, only 3 (excluding the sock revert where you were aware that the account was a sock): 08:40, 13 June 2023 and 12:56, 13 June 2023 and 09:15, 14 June 2023. You could still get blocked for this, but I thought warning you first was a better idea. And... are you accusing me of being Gugrak? Nythar (💬-🍀) 14:58, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
- I think you'll find another of those reverts was changing the subjects name from "Roberts" to "Roberts-Smith" and this was done with the consent of the person I reverted and the revert got a thanks from them. Perhaps check update comments where they advised they were reverting to last clean version after sock and invite an revisions if incorrect. The app is working properly right now and I'm on a phone so I can't really check your diffs properly. Per Gugrak, no accusation, simply a request. Given how much that user has been popping up over the last couple of days you'll have to excuse the thought that things may be connected. I do find you coming from nowhere and bringing this up quite abusive given you have had zero engagement on the Ben Roberts-Smith talk page. AlanStalk 15:39, 14 June 2023 (UTC)

. Sockpuppetry accusations require quite a bit of evidence. And the edit where you changed "Roberts" to "Roberts-Smith" is the one I excluded (since you were aware you were reverting a sock edit). Other than that, you are edit warring. You also don't seem to have a good idea of Wikipedia processes. For instance, leaving you a 3RR warning is recommended so that you are aware of the fact that you are edit warring. In addition, I am not required to engage with a user before reporting them here; for example, both you and Jack4576 were involved in multiple discussions simultaneously as you were edit warring (where you had edit warred only 10 days ago), and that is enough to justify a block. Nythar (💬-🍀) 15:43, 14 June 2023 (UTC)- Another of the diffs you show was against the sock and it is quite evident from my report of them that I was aware that they were a sock and now historically proven that they are a sock. The revert is excepted under WP:3RR. You should reframe from your abusive claims of edit warring. It's clear I only undertook 2 reverts in that 24 hour period. I suggest you drop your abusive claims. AlanStalk 02:24, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
- @AlanS: Incorrect. There's no evidence that you were aware they were a sockpuppet; it doesn't matter that it was discovered later that they were a sockpuppet, since you couldn't have been completely sure that they were. (After all, you were reverting edits made by other users, so this is not a good look.) That does not excuse the revert. Even if you made only 2 reverts, it can still be edit warring: WP:3RR
"Even without a 3RR violation, an administrator may still act if they believe a user's behavior constitutes edit warring, and any user may report edit warring with or without 3RR being breached."
I am warning you to refrain from casting aspersions and referring to my claims as "abusive." Nythar (💬-🍀) 03:10, 15 June 2023 (UTC)- You made one revert against Ben Roberts-Smith talkpage consensus when you have made zero attempt to engage there. Even 1 revert when performed against established consensus can be be edit warring. You shouldn't be so fast to throw around abusive accusations towards other editors engaging in good faith editing especially when you are not even engaged in any attempt to form consensus and seem to be only interested in badgering users with administrative solutions as a way of winning your side of the argument.

- Well, I won't
- I think you'll find another of those reverts was changing the subjects name from "Roberts" to "Roberts-Smith" and this was done with the consent of the person I reverted and the revert got a thanks from them. Perhaps check update comments where they advised they were reverting to last clean version after sock and invite an revisions if incorrect. The app is working properly right now and I'm on a phone so I can't really check your diffs properly. Per Gugrak, no accusation, simply a request. Given how much that user has been popping up over the last couple of days you'll have to excuse the thought that things may be connected. I do find you coming from nowhere and bringing this up quite abusive given you have had zero engagement on the Ben Roberts-Smith talk page. AlanStalk 15:39, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
I have just had a look at the Ben Roberts-Smith talk page and I have not seen a single comment in there from User;Nythar. I note that when they made this report they falsely claimed that they had tried to resolved this dispute on the Ben Roberts-Smith talk page and that in fact has not occured. This report is an abuse of process and I request admin sanctions on User;Nythar. I find their accusations of me and others edit warring and them engaging in drive by tagging when they made no attempt to enter into dispute resolution to be offensive.AlanStalk 15:19, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
I've further had a look a look at discussion at the BLP Noticeboard and I have found zero interaction from User;Nythar there, in particular they have not taged User:Jack4576 there. Their claim to have attempted to enter into any sort of dispute resolution at all in any sense of the word is false and misleading. Admin sanctions are required for lodging a report containing false information. AlanStalk 16:00, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
Blocked indefinitely from article, only because he is already indefinitely blocked from project/project talk namespace and we cannot as of yet set separate expiration dates for individual namespaces and/or pages. Had this not been the case I would probably have set the block for a week or two. If in the future other involved editors are satisfied that Jack has accepted consensus against what he presently advocates, this part of the block can be lifted by any admin.
This was not an easy call to make. Frankly the scope of this is well beyond edit warring and thus this noticeboard. We are very limited here in what more we can do in the way of sanctions, since the page was put on six months' ECP yesterday, with further protection options available but inadvisable (I do not think full-protect would be a good idea as, again, we cannot layer levels of protection because the software does not allow that yet, and other people are editing other parts of the article, and six months would be far too long for full-protection and I do not want to have to reprotect anytime soon). But ...
I was frankly surprised, given its history, that this page was never marked as coming under CTOPS since it certainly qualifies, and the six-month ECP is so rarely applied outside of articles in those topic areas. So I have added a notice to the talk page to that effect and logged the recent ECP.
For the time being, I think the best thing for any other parties to the dispute to do is see how the BLPN thread works out—that is exactly where this dispute needs to be. But I am mindful of the complaints that the pro-"war criminal" side is forum shopping, so if a consensus is reached there and ignored by editors at the page without any change in the underlying facts, then that dispute should be resolved at AE, not here, or perhaps at AN/I, where 1RR may have to be considered.
Good luck and happy editing. I hope this is the last time any noticeboard sees this dispute, but honestly I'm not optimistic. Daniel Case (talk) 20:20, 14 June 2023 (UTC)

Comments:
The fourth revert was 43 minutes outside the 24-hour window. One of the four reverted two unrelated changes in one revert. MrOllie is blocking all attempts by multiple editors to improve the article in good faith, posting false and inflammatory attacks and comments on the talk page, and refusing to engage in constructive discussion or compromise. There is also a larger conflict involving more editors, which I intend to post on another appropriate noticeboard. This report is just about what appears to be a violation of 3RR by MrOllie. GreatBigCircles (talk) 23:03, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
- Page protected for 3 days. Figure it on the talk page please and note that the WP:BURDEN is on the editor adding or restoring content to get consensus for its inclusion. Ponyobons mots 23:08, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for responding and taking action. But I'm confused. There will be more investigation, right? This report is about a particular editor violating the 3RR, not an ongoing edit war. Can you explain the utility of protecting the page? GreatBigCircles (talk) 02:36, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
- As an uninvolved admin passing by, I took a look. MrOllie's four reverts to the article over the past day or so take place just outside a 24-hour period, as indeed you admitted above, so it does not violate 3RR. Now if he were doing this regularly every few days, or on multiple articles during this same time period, that might well merit a block for edit warring, as such behavior has in the past. But one time like this, particularly by an editor known for his diligence in patrolling and reporting disruptive editing, is not an issue.
- The point of the full-protect is to spur discussion on the talk page, which Ponyo judged to be the action likeliest to produce a desirable outcome. I hope it does. It is remedy particularly well-suited to the kind of behavior MrOllie imputes to you here, and you would do well during the next three days to take his advice. Daniel Case (talk) 06:02, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
- You seem to be confusing me with someone else. The diff you linked is another editor's post on MrOllie's talk page warning MrOllie about edit warring behavior.

- From WP:3RR:
Fourth reverts just outside the 24-hour period will usually also be considered edit-warring, especially if repeated or combined with other edit-warring behavior.
GreatBigCircles (talk) 15:22, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
- From WP:3RR:
- @GreatBigCircles:The last clause is a qualifier not present here, as I have noted above: "Now if he were doing this regularly every few days, or on multiple articles during this same time period, that might well merit a block for edit warring, as such behavior has in the past." If we routinely blocked for every single time someone did a fourth revert just outside of 24 hours, well, what would be the point of calling it the three-revert rule (which, to be fair, is as noted at that page not a license for three free reverts per day, either)?
Honestly, I have to ask, wouldn't your energies be better spent trying to get consensus at the talk page for your edits rather than arguing this here? Daniel Case (talk) 20:32, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
- I am surprised and disappointed that you are blaming me for behavior imputed to me by the subject of this complaint. Do you think I have been trying to use discussion as a "filibuster"? If so, can you explain why you think that, besides the fact that MrOllie said so?
- I have been trying to get consensus at the talk page for weeks. I have offered compromise after compromise after compromise. I have listened to other editors' issues and changed my contributions to try to meet their standards. Some of my edits have been accepted. But MrOllie has done nothing but revert. I came here hoping someone could help, perhaps by encouraging him to offer anything at all constructive. This whole process is very disappointing and frustrating. Will someone please help? GreatBigCircles (talk) 01:42, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
- @GreatBigCircles: Please see WP:DR for the processes to follow in order to resolve the dispute, if the editors currently involved in the discussion cannot reach a consensus on their own. This board is for a very narrow purpose of stopping edit-wars, which has already been achieved by Ponyo's (correctly, IMO) protecting the page since the material being added/removed was clearly disputed. Abecedare (talk) 02:22, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
- "Do you think I have been trying to use discussion as a "filibuster"?". And then just in the very next paragraph:
- "I have been trying to get consensus at the talk page for weeks. I have offered compromise after compromise after compromise. I have listened to other editors' issues and changed my contributions to try to meet their standards." Maybe, just maybe, you have gotten everything you could out of the discussion and should accept that and move on. The point of seeking consensus is that you may not be as right as you think you are; other editors' input is valuable.
- "I came here hoping someone could help, perhaps by encouraging him to offer anything at all constructive." Well, as Abecedare ably points out below, that's really not what we do here. If you came here seeking some sort of assistance in dispute resolution (which, honestly, you did), you came to the wrong place, and again there are other places you could have been steered to (as, again, Abecedare notes) if you were honest with yourself and us about what you really wanted.
What you have done is the equivalent of going to the police hoping they'll talk some sense into the neighbor you're having a property dispute with and then being utterly surprised when they decide to cordon off the area on both sides a certain distance from the property line. Daniel Case (talk) 02:31, 17 June 2023 (UTC)

This is an edit war between an IP editor and User:Lugachanka. I'm reporting the latter because this is 5 reverts in less than 24 hours and because here as it turns out the IP editor is correct as to the merits of the edits themselves - Lugachanka is using unreliable sources which spread Russian propaganda, such as as Fars News Agency ("news agency" managed by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran) and previously Russian propaganda and disinformation sites such as Life.ru, rambler and 5TV. IP also appears to be correct regarding the WP:SYNTH issue. There are also serious POV issues. Describing the Rusich Group of just being "accused" of being a neo-Nazi group, as if there was some controversy about it, when the group itself is unabashedly neo-Nazi, with its leader, Alexey Milchakov (a guy who became "notable" when he filmed himself torturing and decapitating puppies) saying ""I'm not going to go deep and say, I'm a nationalist, a patriot, an imperialist, and so forth. I'll say it outright: I'm a Nazi."" is... POV, to put it mildly. Volunteer Marek 06:47, 19 June 2023 (UTC)

Note: their first edit today is a revert (they restored the version that they edited back January, which has since been reverted by someone else). They have been made aware of this and the need to refrain from edit warring on the talk page, yet they chose to ignore it and deliberately break the 3R rule simply because they don't agree with what the reliable sources say. M.Bitton (talk) 12:40, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- Comment Normally, I would say that this is only three reverts within a 24-hour time span and no violation. However, the fact that the most recent revert came after filing an ANI complaint against M.Bitton as an intensifying circumstance that calls into question whether Gutsyncti's revert is appropriate. Since the edit in question has been reverted, I'm leaning toward no action here. The ANI thread is WP:ANI#Vandalism & edit warring by M.Bitton . —C.Fred (talk) 14:07, 19 June 2023 (UTC)

User Ermenrich, apparently a confirmed and otherwise legit user but with some strong belief regarding, at least, the Huns, is removing stuff from article against consensus. They have performed 4 reverts within 24 hours. Here are the diffs: 1 2, 3, 4, 5 Fries Montana (talk) 12:10, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- This is not a properly filed report. Note that this user only reported me because I had said I was going to report them.
- I was removing images they had added, restoring this article state [144].
- FM has now reached 4rr this morning: [145], [146], [147], [148].
- Talk page discussion occurred here: talk:Huns#Let us add Odoacer' picture?
- I placed the warning on their talk page here: [149]
- I'll also note, two of the "4rr" that FM has posted are actually from the same revert of their additions.--Ermenrich (talk) 12:18, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Note that, after I reported here the update that they removed my warning against edit warring from their talk page, they also removed such update from this page 1. With total liberty, as if I command so I can. To the admins: Please, be careful to the wiki lawyering and other honey words and just zero in on the fact they have performed 4 reverts within 24 hours. And sorry for the quality of my report. But the gist and the evidence is there. Thanks. Fries Montana (talk) 12:28, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- I'd like to note FM's stunning inability to assume good faith and incivility as well:
I didn't completely restore what Ermenrich removed because they later split their removals (whether cunningly or for whatever reason
[150],You are literally arguing against reality
[151]Who are you trying to fool?
[152],you have clearly attempted to push your POV in the article [...] Stop repeating meaningless things
[153]. On top of that, they insist that they have consensus when they clearly do not.--Ermenrich (talk) 12:49, 20 June 2023 (UTC)- There is no incivility but a mental breakdown when a guy (you in this case) reverts four time in a day, denying that 2 against 1 is consensus and trying thereby to get me a headache. Sidenote Ermenrich just removed my notice he is discussed at ANI with the note "this is not going the way you think" 1 is this bossing around? Prophecy? Some hint that they will receive favor from admins? But you just need to look at the diffs I provided and nothing else. Fries Montana (talk) 12:57, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- I'm allowed to remove a talk page notice, see WP:OWNTALK. And I've seen no evidence of anyone agreeing with you since I raised my objections to those images.--Ermenrich (talk) 13:01, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Evidence is on talk page. Long established, very fair and esteemed user with dozens of precius, fundamental works at art and history related topics has agreed with my addition, has helped to edit the capion of the long established pictures you removed, and even agreed that Odoacer's picture would fit better than Attila's. Even so, I did not add Odoacer's picture, waiting for fuller discussion. Just as I waited 24 hours before reverting your action. You on the other hand take just a few minutes to revert to your own way, careless of consensus. You appeal to Andrew Lancaster, who marely opposed Odoacer's picture, which never did I add, much less restore! You manipulate edit comments, claiming stuff like that you removed Odocaer claims, which were never there, or that a picture of Attila from the Chronicon is "racist caricature". You, a few weeks ago, manipulated the article by excluding all East Asian haplogroups, by restricting all arguments in favor of East Asian Hun origin and giving huge weight to minority views (and I will soon prove this). Your conduct on that page is not admissible and is in contrast with your conduct elsewhere. But the matter here is just that you reverted too many times to have it your way, and now you deserve what wiki rules dictate in such case. Fries Montana (talk) 13:11, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- And, lucky is the one who has time to spare! Who can pick sentences from wider arguments like Ermernich is doing to make an argument against me! I don't have time right now, if I had I would provide diffs to prove Ermernirch's long established pov pushing at Huns. But let me plead to the admins here to just focus on evidence, not at Ermenrichs attempts at manipulation or anything else. Fries Montana (talk) 13:01, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

- Appears to be an easily verifiable correction of uncontentious fact with the unexplained reversions being disruptive. IP is correct, other relevant articles across multiple projects all use the blue flag. Becerra was sworn in in front of the blue flag. The yellow flag is unsourced, apart from stating that the source is the blue flag. I cannot find any evidence that that the yellow flag is ever used in any capacity. Literally just clicking the relevant link to the parent article would have seemingly clarified this. ~Swarm~ {sting} 16:00, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

This user has been persistently reverting good edits, claiming they are vandalism when they are not. They have made no attempt to discuss their reasoning on the article talk page. BlueboyLINY (talk) 00:14, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
User BlueboyLINY has reverted several of my good edits which include reputable citations. It appears he has gone through my contributions and targetted my edits without cause or explanation. Worst cases of this have been CBS Broadcast Center, WRNJ, and WLNY-TV. It's clear this user has an ax to grind, but fails to explain what the reason for the disruptive edits are. --Vipersage (talk) 01:20, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

I added the WP:NPOV tag as there is an ongoing disscussion in the talk page on the NPOV status of the sources used in the article. Oz346 has been activly reverting and removing this tag without discussing in the talk page. Cossde (talk) 14:21, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
- Cossde is challenging the status of a particular source, of whether it is a reliable source or not (a source that every other respondent on the talk page and other discussion board have endorsed as reliable - he is the sole editor disputing its status at present). This is NOT the same as a NPOV issue, the article is a simple list, and is written in a neutral POV. I have repeatedly told him that the correct template to use when questioning whether a source is RS or not is the following Template:Unreliable source?. But he has not heeded my comments nor the other editor who has also questioned the erroneous tag. He has also reverted the same page 3 separate times now since putting the incorrect tag over the last few days. Oz346 (talk) 17:53, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

- Comment from uninvolved editor:
- This ANEW report is missing some diffs, but I'll provide some – this user has been making the exact same edit to the short description on the Scotland article over and over again for months now:
- It looks like this user has been blocked two times in the past before for edit warring, according to the block log – neither of which have successfully rectified the behaviour here.

User is (charitably) confused about original research policy and is reverting edits without consensus or participating in talk page. I used a request for third opinion assistance who found that my edit wasn't in violation. I'd also point out that his comments on the talk page are in multiple cases provably false, and point to a history of low quality edit warring. [183] Hi! (talk) 07:57, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
- No violation. Three reverts over a space of 3-4 days in early May, plus one revert on 21 June, do not a violation make. Insofar as Fred Z has edit warred at the article, it happened almost two months ago, and Oort1 edit warred to the same extent. That is not something that will be sanctioned at this board, Oort1. I suggest you give the talkpage another chance (there was a discussion in May). At the same time, User:Fred Zepelin, you absolutely ought to have provided an explanatory edit summary here.

Comments: Both users are partially blocked for edit warring at Professional wrestling, much of which was about how to describe professional wrestling (as an athletic competition or not. The ANI discussion was here: [194]. Since the block, Kurzon has been working on the article in his sandbox. Kurzon then removed all mentions of professional wrestling from the Combat sport article, which RedWater14 reverted, which Kurzon reverted, which RedWater14 reverted...all while partially blocked for constantly reverting each other about this very topic. I'm not convinced that the 2-week partial block has gotten the message across to either editor.
GaryColemanFan (talk) 06:36, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- RedWater14 is now blocked from editing articles for a month, during which they can still discuss and make edit requests. I'll wait for someone else to decide whether Kurzon needs the same measure. In this situation here, I took action with the general requirement of those favoring inclusion to seek a consensus and to provide sources in mind (WP:ONUS, WP:BURDEN). ~ ToBeFree (talk) 10:03, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
In my defense, nobody said I could do any work on the side, including wrestling-related articles. And I did not break the 3RR rule this time. Neither did RedWater14, so I don't think it's fair that you blocked him for a month. Kurzon (talk) 12:51, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- Edit warring is not limited to violations of the three-revert rule, and this really had to end. Working on other articles during a partial block is perfectly fine, disagreement there is too, but reverting after one's revert has been reverted while partially blocked for edit warring is hard to justify. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:55, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

While they haven't broken 3R per se, they keep adding content to the infobox that is contradicted by what's in the article's body and justifying it by adding sources that don't support what they're adding.
I tried to reason with them (here too), but their replies (see this and this for instance) make me wonder whether this is a CIR issue. M.Bitton (talk) 15:08, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- Here, I'm not going to be comprehensive with you , i literally added a source that say that in 1801 to 1805 America was in war with the Barbary Regence of Tripoli/Tunis and Algiers and i added a source that talk about the leader of the Wars you just needed to scroll a little in the books but ok , "why not". Historian loverr (talk) 15:41, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- Nope. The sources that you added failed verification (adding names such as Raïs Hamidou which are associated with the second Barbary War makes no sense). Besides, even if they didn't, they would still contradict that's on the article's body. You've been made aware of this, but your replies suggest that your mind is already made up. M.Bitton (talk) 16:05, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the 3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria. Although HL's attitude could stand to improve, they have not (yet) violated 3RR, as the nominator freely concedes above. The fourth diff listed above is not a revert; it is the original edit which set this off. Here we care about only reverts, and there have been the maximum of three in the past 24 hours. Which is, need we repeat, by no means the all clear for more of this once the 24 hours from the third diff expires. Daniel Case (talk) 21:14, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

Edit warring after RfC set up at Talk:United States Space Force#RfC: Trump's signature on legislation instead of discussing. Sundayclose (talk) 18:49, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- You reverted me after you wrote the RfC. I simply. restored the pre-RfC version. Yes, I broke the letter of 3RR, but you have been breaking the spirit of it for weeks, and I haven't reverted you at all until now. Do I need to list every revert you made of this on the article? BilCat (talk) 19:08, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
Article version immediately prior to RfC at 13:20 is here, then with no additional article edits the RfC was set up at 13:28 here, after which BilCat reverted at 13:59 and acknowledged seeing the RfC here. Sundayclose (talk) 19:19, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- I'm referring to my restoration of the Trump mention here at 12:57pm, which you reverted, then filed the RfC. You have been engaging in a low-grade edit war all along to support your version of the text. I've never reverted you more than once, if at all, until today. So please stop pretending your innocent here. BilCat (talk) 19:26, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- For the record, I won't be reverting again. BilCat (talk) 19:28, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
I don't mean to insult any admin's intelligence who can easily see this, but the only person who violated 3RR in the article is BilCat. Sundayclose (talk) 19:29, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- You're being disingenuous, again. You reverted to your preferred version, and then filed the RfC. I left a detailed response to a previous discussion here, which you have yet to respond to. Instead, you revert me twice in less than on hour, and file an RfC in between. BilCat (talk) 19:46, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
To the admin who adjudicates this: I have a temper, and occasionally it gets the worst of me, especially if I haven't had enough sleep, as with today. It's not an excuse, just an acknowledgement that I do occasionally engage in proscribed behavior such as edit warring, especially if I'm frustrated/angry over a specific situation as this one. I didn't do my best today, and I will try to do better in the future. I can't promise it won't ever happen again, but it isn't my usual behavior. I haven't been blocked for edit warring in a very long time (many years). A block is not necessary now to prevent further disruption to that article, but if a short block or some other measure is deemed necessary, I will accept that as deserved.

User has been edit warring against multiple editors over the last two or three years, regarding the addition of heights in infoboxes. Since February 2022 their efforts have been solely focused on Tom Holland. Other articles include Hailee Steinfeld and El Rubius. – 2.O.Boxing 12:15, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- Blocked indefinitely. ANEW likely wasn’t the best place to bring this up, given how slow their actions were. But, in total, they’re basically an SPA that doesn’t understand RS that shows up every few months. So, the indef if the best tool available to stop this disruption.

At first I was told the content was irrelevent. Then they said the reference wasn’t an RS. Then I used another reference and that too, I was told, wasn’t an RS. Then I was told to use an official Mattel site for a reference. Which I did exactly that. And was then told the official Mattel site I used wasn’t acceptable either. They keep moving the goal posts. So what am I supposed to do? OldSkool01 (talk) 19:33, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- I’ve also asked for a list of He-Man/Masters of the Universe sites that are considered RS. And as far I know, there is no list. So how do we decide which ones are an RS and which ones are not? OldSkool01 (talk) 19:48, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- I guess having a discussion at the reliable sources noticeboard can help if the article's talk page (and perhaps an RfC there) is too article-specific. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:10, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- Why would I need to have a discussion on the noticeboard when I was already told specifically what site is considered an RS? I was told an official “Mattel site”. And I added that. And was still told no. So how is that my fault? OldSkool01 (talk) 20:22, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- Having a discussion could help because there clearly is a disagreement to be resolved. Not on the edit warring noticeboard, though; the messages here are quickly archived. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:34, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

- In response to "So what am I supposed to do", the answer is "discussing instead of restoring a change others have already objected to", at very least if that happens without any modification. As [227] and [228] are identical, I'm not buying your excuse. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:07, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- What excuse? I told you exactly what happened. OldSkool01 (talk) 20:24, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- The way "So what am I supposed to do?" was asked seemed to imply justification for the edit warring, by describing a situation in which you saw no other option than to edit war. There was no situation justifying an edit war, though. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:30, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Comments:
LL was quite clear about their intent to pursue the edit war, despite being warned against doing so. And true to their word, rather than engage because they felt they were personally attack when an edit was called ridiculous, again reverted. There's also civility concerns here (nowhere did JayBeeEll call LL an asshole or anything remotly close to that). Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 23:37, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- I find it ironic that I'm the one who was reported when the person who reported me broke the 3RR rule before I did. I wouldn't call my statements to which you linked any kind of clear intent to edit war; I was just dealing with someone who refused to actually explain his unprovoked characterisation of my good-faith edit as "ridiculous" and who didn't seem to be aware of the 3RR rule. I did actually quote JBL who called another editor an "asshole", so he seems to have quite a reputation for picking fights.
- He finally posted to my talk page, as well as reporting me here, so now I have two places where I have to defend myself. If I actually thought my edit would have been controversial I would have posted to the article's talk page (as I've done in other circumstances), but really, that's where JBL should have taken it first rather than making an ad hominem attack on my good-faith edit. But I will take it there now and open yet a third front on which I will have to waste my time.

Comments:
An IP editor with IPv6 starting with 2600 keeps restoring his edits despite being reverted by multiple editors on List of programs broadcast by The CW, they've been asked not to many times in edit summaries. Since it's a dynamically shifting IP, attempts to contact it seem to be pointless. Regardless I've warned them on their talk page as required.
I previously requested protection for the page and the IP range was blocked from anonymous editing for a week [242]. However, they've returned to repeating the same behaviour after the block expired. I ask that they be blocked from anonymous editing or the page be protected for a long while, so the editor might be forced to discuss their changes and seek a consensus first. Linkin Prankster (talk) 08:19, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
- Blocked – for a period of one week I have extended it to the /64, which should blunt the effect of the dynamic IP (assuming, of course, that it is one user with an account with the provider, used at the same location). Daniel Case (talk) 17:00, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

This user insists on removing any mention of Merkerson's birth name, even when such information is properly sourced. TheClubSilencio (talk) 19:22, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
- The user, who claims to be the subject of the article, has been editing the article disruptively for years. I've therefore indefinitely blocked her. TheClubSilencio, please do not shout in edit summaries.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:58, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
- Wasn't trying to shout. Just trying to emphasize my point. The lack of boldface or italic options tied my hands, but I can see why it might come across as shouting. Regardless, was I really talking to S. Epatha Merkerson? I just have a hard time believing that she'd care so much about her own Wikipedia article. Perhaps it was a rabid fan? TheClubSilencio (talk) 20:04, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
- You should almost never use allcaps in edit summaries. Once in a great while, I will capitalize one word for emphasis, e.g., NOT, but, otherwise, it's not good practice. No way of knowing for sure, but my guess is that she is the subject. I don't find it surprising that she "cares" so much about her article. Unfortunately, I've seen this phenomenon repeatedly.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:27, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

- Looks like I did not read 3 revert correctly. I missed the part that all the reverts needed to be on the same page... Kate the mochii (talk) 23:47, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
I take full accountability. However when it comes to the edits they made on different articles that I changed I didn't know that they were to ones that made the edits and i wasn't editing with the intetion of starting an edit war with them on any other pages they have been editing. It should also be noted that *I* was the first person to make a dif of attempt to resolve. here : https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Multiplicity_%28subculture%29&diff=1162656320&oldid=1162612901
My edit note said : "I removed the stuff relating to iatrogenic effects as that is better suited to the D.I.D page. Also the vice article you sourced didn't mention any multiplicity tiktok communities? We can talk about it on the talk page"
Yet they continued to revert the edit Kuia34 (talk) 23:47, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
- Declined + Warned nominating editor...
- @Kate the mochii:: Reporting someone here typically implies you fully understand the underlying policies (edit warring and the three-revert rule, among others). To reiterate, the three-revert rule isn't an allowance, but even if it were an allowance, you exceeded yours:
- Please consider this a warning that any continued edit warring—whether or not it violates the 3RR—can result in anyone being blocked, including someone that files a report here. The safest (and most effective) thing you can do is seek dispute resolution options, including simply using the article's talk page to establish consensus instead of repeatedly reinserting contested material.
