Comments:

User has been blanking and removing details left and right in multiple articles based on their personal WP:POV. They have been warned twice within the past 24 hours (blanking the warning in between) of potential edit warring and just ignored it and now went over the bright-line, so it appears they are WP:NOTHERE to build an encyclopedia, but just to cause disruption based on their personal POV. Raladic (talk) 04:06, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

All but one of these were explained, in detail. There is not a pattern of " unexplained content removal," and you personally attempted to revert all my edits. Further, I answered all your requests on my talk page in-context. Cheers (Redacted). Dickenseditor (talk) 04:18, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

No, explanations for removals need to be valid and not made repeatedly. You have been reverted by multiple separate editors and yet continued to re-instate what you believe is right. You claimed there is a consensus to remove this on the talk page, but there isn't, there is an ongoing thread in which an admin, @Doug Weller tried to explain policies with regards to attributed text to you, but you removing the text you disagree with again despite having been warned to stop doing so is a violation of our 3-revert rule as the warning warned you about. Raladic (talk) 04:22, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

Others were warned (by multiple editors, other than me) not to continue to insert biased, unclear, language w/o citation or attempting to cherry-pick information (as was the case of the THF article), and yet other editors continued to revert; again, multiple editors warning others about repeated attempts to bias the language. See Talk pages in all instances. Cheers. Dickenseditor (talk) 04:25, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

See Talk pages in all instances. You’ve not engaged at talk at Twelve Tribes communities – at all – despite reverting multiple other editors to your preferred version. Cambial — foliar❧ 10:19, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

I didn't realize you were talking about TTC. . . the main subject appeared to be THF article, or the sex assignment/discernment long discussion. There was even a discussion about Hugh Jackman. I honestly didn't think TTC was all that controversial haha, but you are correct, that is one that I didn't see the Talk page on. On Hugh Jackman, btw, if that was part of the issue, you'll notice I actually agreed and noted my own error. Dickenseditor (talk) 12:32, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Also, just because I'm going to assume you were acting in good faith, I reverted my own edits in the THF article (where I assume you were most upset about). Edits were made that (somewhat) addressed mine and other editors concerned, so I left those in. Hopefully, this alleviates your concern and stops the babysitting. Cheers. Dickenseditor (talk) 04:36, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

In general, we treat consecutive uninterrupted edits as a single revert for purposes of WP:3RR, and both this self-reversion over 4 edits at the former this set of two edits at the latter would render the user at 3 reverts on both. This isn't great behavior, but I don't see a bright-line 3RR violation here. @Raladic: Is either The Heritage Foundation or Twelve Tribes communities under 1RR, or is this just a standard set of articles?

That the user self-reverted at The Heritage Foundation makes me a bit hesitant to p-block from it, since they at least now seem to be taking it to the relevant talk page. Blocks are meant to prevent future disruption and I don't see any WP:STATUSQUO gaming; the editor appears to be engaging. That being said, I don't see a self-revert at the end for the Twelve Tribes article, nor engagement on talk. I would sternly remind Dickenseditor to take their concerns to the talk page rather than reverting again; if the edit warring on that article continues again and you don't try to gain consensus on the talk, I'd expect at least a partial block from editing that article. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 23:01, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

Their recent edits at Talk:Sex assignment might also be worth looking at. They unnecessarily revived a dead thread and wasted people's time. There seems to be a pattern of provocation and sealioning here. Whether it is intentional I wouldn't like to say. --DanielRigal (talk) 18:23, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

This was, clearly, an ongoing discussion (and one that I missed, initially, then contributed to, once found). Many people disagreed (hence why the topic was sooo long). To say "we're done, no more discussion," is tantamount to dictatorial rule. Dickenseditor (talk) 12:20, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

I'll add their edits at Matt Gaetz which are plain and simple POV pushing. If it was not for this thread, since there's already 4 warnings, I might've reported to AIV. win8x (talk) 03:32, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

I actually went to AIV first to save time of this clear disruption caused by the user, but since it wasn't technical vandalism, it was declined by @Bbb23. As I noted in the thread, sometimes it feels like we need a board that's somewhere between ANI/3RR and AIV for clear cases of disruption like this that don't serve the encyclopedia. But alas we're here now, though it looks like based on @Red-tailed hawk's comments that maybe I should have gone to ANI instead of 3RR unless an admin decides to take all of these reports from multiple users as a collective and just steps in instead of us having to go from board to board. Raladic (talk) 03:46, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

I'm leaning towards the view that they are being intentionally disruptive but even if they are not then it is a serious enough case of IDHT to merit sanctions. They repeatedly blank the warnings on their User Talk page without heeding them. They take every revert as an excuse to start sealioning. If we can't action that here then I fear we have to move this to ANI. --DanielRigal (talk) 04:37, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

I've read all the warnings (and heeded all applicable ones; see previous self-revert). But after a while, several other fellow editors simply used them as a sign on my Talk page to justify their own feelings: "This feels disruptive, and other people feel the same."

Remember--- assume good faith :) Dickenseditor (talk) 12:22, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

I am WP:INVOLVED but wanted to say that I agree with Red-tailed hawk's assessment as well as DanielRigal's. EvergreenFir (talk) 14:35, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

This user has been constantly reverting images of Cyclone Fengal for around a week a few days. Although 3RR wasn't violated, this edit warring has been going on for too long. I've warned this user and state we must discuss this at the talk page. Apparently this warning was ignored and the user continues to revert images. User contribution shows that this user knows how to use the talk page. INeedSupport ^:3 14:56, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Forgot to mention that this user also edit wars on 2024 North Indian Ocean cyclone season for the same reason. This user also tried to use its IP to subvert 3RR rule. I'm not sure if logging out was accidental or not. This user is relatively new, so perhaps I was being a little bit too harsh here. However, seeing "retardo" makes me use a hard warning instead of a soft warning. INeedSupport ^:3 15:08, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Constantly restoring their edits, writing their original research (which have no facts) in the summary. Attacking personally on talk page [1]. ZDX _{(User) | (Contact)} 09:29, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

I am the accused user. The reporting user has constantly claimed 'vandalism' without providing any source for verification. On the contrary,I have provided my sources in the comments (and am again providing them below for judges). Despite this, the reporting user claims "Original research" without providing any verified sources. From his profile, it is clear that he is supportive towards the party in question, the Indian National Congress (hereafter: the INC) and wants to inflate their numbers in the Parliament contrary to the reality.

Sources:

1. https://sansad.in/ls

This is the official website of the House of the People and the first reliable source of information. It clearly states that the INC has 99 seats in the Lok Sabha. Despite this, the reporting user claims that the INC gained 2 seats when independents joined it, but this will lead to them standing disqualified under the Anti-Defection Law of Indian Parliament.

2. https://results.eci.gov.in/PcResultGenJune2024/partywiseresult-S13.htm

This is the official breakup of numbers in the State of Maharashtra, that is being inflated by this user. This is the OFFICIAL website of the Election Commission of India. PowerOfFiveFan (talk) 09:42, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Please have a look at your source [2]=This is a page of election results not about the current status. These are the latest sources [3], [4]. ZDX _{(User) | (Contact)} 09:52, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

The heading of both your sources is misleading. If you read the article, they clearly use the phrase "extended support to the Congress". Newspapers often put such headings to create sensation.

As for my source being outdated, please check source no.1

It is not election results, it is the very official page of the representation im the CURRENT Lok Sabha, as of TODAY. PowerOfFiveFan (talk) 11:26, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Reverting vandalism is exempted; the edits I reverted removed sourced content including an entire paragraph describing Anand Ram Mukhlis' account, which is not under challenge. Additionally, it misrepresented sources by adding unverifiable descriptors like "politically aligned Hindus", "just like nearest river", "skeptic protestors", etc.

Notably, the filer is tag-teaming against me: see this (rejected) SPI report and the ongoing ANI case. Upd Edit (talk) 14:52, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

You absolutely have no idea what is vandalism. Your response only proves my report. - Ratnahastin (talk) 14:57, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

If removing sourced content and adding misleading descriptors without edit summaries and without any engagement at the talk-page is not vandalism, we agree to disagree. That said, the trend at this page to (1) revert edits with no/misleading edit summaries, (2) not come to the talk-page despite personalized messages at their talk-page, and (3) file complaints against me (as documented by Kautilya3) is mildly amusing. Thanks, Upd Edit (talk) 15:01, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

This is not the kind of "obvious vandalism" exempt from the edit warring policy, and it's unlikely to be vandalism at all. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 15:23, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

ToBeFree, are you sure about this? The editor hasn't crossed 3RR! The last revert might not "look like reverting vandalism", but the IP edit was modifying direct quotes with WP:OR. These are the kind of reverts that any of us might do. Applying a sanction for them seems like setting a bad precedent.

Note also this comment I wrote less than 24 hours ago, and the comment below it from PhilBerger. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 15:42, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Thanks Kautilya3, I didn't mean to make it look as if Upd Edit's editing was the most problematic or even the only problematic one. I'm using page protection only now. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 15:58, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Thanks very much. I am trying to get involved with this page as much as I can, though I am busy with other topics. I think we can sort it out. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 16:13, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

This user rotates between two accounts, Æ's old account wasn't working and Ægc's friendly xbox alt, as well as at least two IPs, 2403:4800:351A:BE15:0:0:0:0/64 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) and 2001:8003:58EA:E700:0:0:0:0/64 (talk · contribs · WHOIS), to engage in edit warring. In the most recent example, Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing, the user added unnecessary wording, to which I disagreed. Instead of following WP:BRD, the user reinstated their edit with another account, stating only "I am not a sock. I am not a sock. Remain calm." instead of engaging in any sort of dicussion. After I referred to WP:BRD explicitly, the user's next revert, again from another account, reiterated: "Do not panic. This is still me. I am not a sock. Both of my accounts are out of action at the moment, but they are not banned. I am not a sock. I am not a sock. I am not a sock.", once again not attempting to settle the issue via a discussion.

This is not an isolated case, however. The following examples, from the past month alone, come to mind:

• Spacewar!: The user makes a factual error that I challenge. After one commentless revert, they are reverted by another user (Rhain), and their second revert only reads "Just get over it mate, you're probably not gonna be winning this one anyway; this is not a threat". Their following two undos claim "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here, this is the War Room!" and "Fight me. Just fight me.", only ceasing their warring when a third user intervened.
• Grand Theft Auto (video game): The user introduced unsoucred claims and is reverted by Rhain. After they partially reinstate their edit, another user enforces WP:NOPIPE, which the user reverts without comment. After being reverted with reference to the guideline involved, the user claims "Why does everything I touch automatically devolve into an edit war? Because of you. Yeah, you. Maybe." and only stopped when I reverted them.
• List of largest empires: I was not involved in this one, but the user went back and forth with two others, including comments like "Looks like we should prepare for war..."
• Animator vs. Animation: Another article Rhain was involved in; the user reverts Rhain without comment three times within 13 hours, and provided no rationale even after the minor edit war ended.

The user appears to intentionally provoke edit wars while often blaming the issue on the other user(s) involved, with individual edit summaries almost leaning into WP:NOTHERE territory, especially after the user has already been on this platform for a little over two years and will have come across the most important guidelines in this time.

• This is way too complicated and alleges too many different policy violations for this board. I have no comment on the merits of the allegations, but the best board would be WP:ANI.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:53, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Comments:

Mindlessly edit warring at Khanate of Bukhara, no edit summary whatsoever, attempting to replace a sourced map with their own unsourced, exaggerated, and likely copyrighted map. This is not the first time they've tried to disregarded WP:RS in favour of their own POV, as seen in this talk section back in July 2024 [12]. Seeing as they suddenly lost the ability to write a single word, I would consider this on the realm of WP:NOTHERE. --HistoryofIran (talk) 14:29, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Comments:

This user was nearly blocked for edit waring on Jon Stewart in late November, but they stopped just before violating 3RR actually they did violate 3RR, but they stopped before I could report them here. Now they returned to Jon Stewart's article and vandalized my user page. This is not a 3RR violation, but it is ongoing edit warring. I can take it to ARV if that's a better venue. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:58, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
