18:03 WMSR identical revert

Insofar as MrX, WMSR, and Objective 3000 have previously been involved in prosecuting people for a "slight" (& sleep-coveting) 1RR violation, they are aware of 1RR + BRD on this page. Now my today "watchlist" shew this page turned to battleground, hwil(st) I werked still away the day.

I have made the first step there and here; MrX has not shown up unprompted there to explain his 3RR:. NB: MrX did not make any comment on the TP before filing about the previous section's "slight". I will do my best to resolve the edit war by not getting involved (except insofar as I file this report and offer FOC-y (not phoque-y) suggestions on the TP). -- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 23:23, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Comments:

No idea why I'm mentioned here or what Sashi means by prosecuting people. O3000 (talk) 23:28, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

• If any admin thinks that I knowingly or intentionally violated 1RR, they should block me because I am aware that the article is subject to 1RR. In my defense, I did not know about Objective 3000's or GPRamirez5's intervening edits until after I completed my last edit at 14:30. My edits were intended to be a consecutive series of edits. I chose to edit at a time when no one else was editing the article so as to not experience intervening edits or edit conflicts (the previous edit occurred almost 18 hours prior to mine). I'm afraid I don't understand the rest of the comment by SashiRolls. It seems designed to make me look bad or something. - MrX 🖋 23:44, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Incidentally, it occurred to me at the time that I should have waited before making my edit to see if MrX was finished. O3000 (talk) 23:49, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Warned. We don't usually sanction for these sort of accidents. Like I told SashiRolls last time (of course it was the same article!), just try be more cognizant next time. El_C 23:56, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Of course I will be more careful in the future. I thought I was being careful by editing at slow time of the day, but I will endeavor to check the page history after each edit in the future. - MrX 🖋 00:05, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

• yes, actually you do sanction for these types of violation (another one MrX was involved in) -- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 23:59, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

• You need to be more specific. Which sanction did I apply and when? El_C 00:01, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

The second person plural "you". I was not referring to the 2nd person singular "you". As the link shows it was a collective "y'all" responding to your we don't usually sanction... when it's pretty clear you do. -- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 00:36, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Anyway, you got a break after being reported by him about violating restrictions in this article — he got a break after being reported by you about violating restrictions in this article. What about that reciprocity confuses you? El_C 00:11, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

That you wrote "Result:no violation" in the header for MrX and not for me. You should correct the header since you have twice now said they were warned, IMO.-- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 00:33, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Sashi, the way to handle this, in my mind, is to go to the UTP and politely ask for a self-rvt instead of running here. 1RR is incredibly easy to accidentally vio. O3000 (talk) 00:41, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Fixed. I did, indeed, intend to write warned, as is indicated by my closing note and edit summary. You see, now all three of us made a mistake (though I would argue mine is the most trivial one of em all).El_C 01:57, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

In fairness, that wasn't really done last time, either. Maybe next time? Hopefully. El_C 02:01, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

(edit conflict)The way to show intractable problems is to document them. That is what I have done. MrX is watching, if they feel like reverting I'm sure they will. WMSR is watching too. I'm sure they'll be quick to respond.-- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 00:50, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Am I being accused of something here? And please don't outdent my comments. I was replying to the initial thread, not to your comment (which you had not made yet). --WMSR (talk) 01:11, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Am I somehow implicated in this complaint? I don't know what Sashi is talking about, and I was not given notice on my talk page (or even pinged). --WMSR (talk) 00:42, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Your name is not in the bolded User being reported or in the header. [Tell us about your involvement] with MrX's causes, WMSR. -- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 01:11, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Is that a yes or a no? You are clearly insinuating that I am "involved" in something. --WMSR (talk) 02:09, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Where do I report WP:Ownership issues because at this point that's the real issue with SS on this article. And I am tired of having to follow every page on Wikipedia to keep track of this article Slywriter (talk) 03:46, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

• One year ago, the IP was blocked. The IP included unsourced material to The Road Warriors article. Some users remove it, so the IP decided to delete all unsourced information, which is WP:POINT. The IP was blocked for one year and, then came back, makes the same edition. I retored the article because stills WP:POINT with no helpfull intention. And a recently created user makes the same edition, reverting 3 times to a vandaliced version. HHH Pedrigree (talk) 17:11, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Comment. HHH Pedigree is hedging his bets that we are the same user. We are not. He is welcome to go for SPI. Before I intervened, I examined the edits and found POINT to be nothing short of a false claim for several editors to contaminate the article with several paragraphs of unsourced information. That is to say, nothing in the sources of the article supports the points being taken out. The POINT in this case is no source, i.e. building an encylocpedia which is the aim of the project. Bottle of Milk (talk) 17:16, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Note also that HHH Pedigree has conceded "unsourced information", so this now looks stale. Start bullying users for playing by the book and the next thing, we start blocking vandal fighters for making a POINT, of reverting vandalism. Where does the lunacy end. Bottle of Milk (talk) 17:18, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

[12] One year ago, the IP was blocked for that same editions, removing content just because his content was reverted. Unsourced material isn't good, but the actions (removing the material jsut because other editos removed his unsourced claim) it's WP:POINT. The way to improve the article it's to find sources, not to delete everything without good faith. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 17:22, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

I've tried discussing and engaging with this user for edit dispute resolution, amicably, but it seems like they would not take any reason and still continues to delete, remove, and thwart contents, templates, and edits done by other contributors/editors; what's more, most of their edits and reverts are without any valid reason and do not come with any RS (reliable source/s), as evidenced

1. here 2. here 3. here 4. here 5. here 6. here 7. here 8. here 9. here, and 10. here.

The above are only a few sampling of their edits and reverts, all without valid reason and without any RS. When one tries to discuss with them via revert notes or warnings, they would either pay no attention or continue insisting on their edits or reverts without any explanation, without trying to discuss or engage with the other editor(s) concerned at all.

They've also deleted warnings on their talk page without addressing any of them and discussing with editor(s), as evidenced here, here, here, here, and here.

I hope you guys could assist me on this. Thanks.

Migsmigss (talk) 06:04, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

Dear Editors, he added a lot of redundant and unnecessary information that made the page complicated. He imposed all his edits and did not accept other more easily understood versions.

I have tried discussing with this user on his talk page [ here], expounding that "A principle of Wikipedia is to broaden and expand articles, as well as facilitate easy reading and use for users, especially the new ones. Why would you disallow a color key indicator system that would facilitate these?."

But again, this user neither discusses these nor listens to the reason/logic behind the new color key placement, and instead continues to revert and insists on their edits, without valid reason and without engaging in a fruitful discussion as regards the issue at hand. Thanks.

I have repeatedly made edit notes on edits and reverts I made, but this user has continuously insisted on their edits and reverts without valid reason. I have tried to discuss and engage with this user via edit notes, on their talk page, and also via warnings, but to no avail.

I have trying to expand and develop articles by introducing a much clearer color key indicating winners from 4 countries that have produced titleholders from Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss International, and Miss Earth, but this user continuously reverts and disrupts editing, insisting on their edits. I have reasoned with this user but to no avail.

I hope you could assist me on this. Thanks. Migsmigss (talk) 06:52, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

Dear Editors, The colors are just for differentiated competitions. The first line of table has been clasified by the colours and they are clearly. He is are making the issues become too far. And the phrase " WINNER" under names of winners is very clear. The TOP of Table has been classified.

I hope you guys could assist me on this. Thanks.

Comments:

The user exhibits WP:OWNBEHAVIOR/WP:Stonewalling in the Aberfan disaster article. Did not react to the provided arguments and did not substantiate his/her claims with any reliable sources or WP guidelines. — Mikhail Ryazanov (talk) 21:57, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

• Only two reverts in the last 24 hours over a comma. No violation.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:01, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

I had come to the same conclusion; I would note for Mikhail that you threatened to edit war on your user talk page. I would suggest that you find some other way to resolve this matter or you might find yourself reported here. 331dot (talk) 22:04, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

"you threatened to edit war on your user talk page" ← this is a libel. — Mikhail Ryazanov (talk) 00:31, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

Mikhail Ryazanov You said "So unless you show me a style guide that explicitly forbids them, I'm going to put them back." That sounds like edit warring to me. Certainly it is not helpful in resolving a dispute. 331dot (talk) 00:38, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

To me, it does not sound like that. If SchroCat and you misunderstood my words, I apologize. — Mikhail Ryazanov (talk) 00:55, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

• Is the actual 3RR violation required to report a problem? I did not want to escalate the conflict to that point, but since SchroCat was obviously non-cooperative (and apparently has a history of such behavior), I thought that reporting this issue is the best way to resolve it. If this does not fit here, where is the appropriate place? — Mikhail Ryazanov (talk) 00:31, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

  There's nothing for you to report. I strongly urge you to drop this; otherwise, you may find yourself blocked.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:36, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

  In other words, WP:OWNBEHAVIOR and WP:Stonewalling are not a problem? But if I try to report them, I will be blocked? — Mikhail Ryazanov (talk) 00:55, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

  No, Mikhail Ryazanov, there is no ownership, despite the accusation. It is stewardship, which is very different. You'll note from the six diffs you provided that three of them were removing the information about the Netflix broadcast of The Crown: I removed them because the information was already in the article (as I noted in the edit summary). Should I have left duplicate references there, or should I have acted in the best intrests of the article and removed them, as good stewardship would suggest? (and please also see WP:FAOWN)

  Comma usage differs between varieties of English, and within English too. I reverted your comma use because they are not needed in BrEng (some may add them, but if they are not needed, then they are best left out). I have already tried to discuss this with you on your talk page, but you came here instead. Hopefully next time you are in disagreement with someone you can discuss the matter, particularly when someone is already in the middle of a discussion with you. - SchroCat (talk) 13:44, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

4RR violation by IP user, who could possibly be another user (Air7777) logged out. Clearly a sockpuppet though. Whether they are right or not, they have refused to bring this into the relevant talk forum nor discussed with other editors involved in the dispute. Ajf773 (talk) 00:36, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

• I'm not any other user on Wikipedia, nor am I required to use an account to perform edits. Besides this, a select group of users (Ajf773, Charlesdrakew, SovalValtos) are insistent on cherrypicking random airport articles to vandalize and remove future destinations which has long been accepted as per WP:Airports discussion, as long as they are properly sourced. Selected airports are militantly monitored by these users to remove any mention of future destinations which discourages any contribution to the airport articles in question at all. Edits of future destinations contributed to Doncaster Sheffield Airport's article are inline with the majority of other world airports in their information of airline announced new destinations, yet these select group of users are infatuated with vandalizing and edit warring as per their interpretation of the rules. These users conspire together to warn and report anyone who dares to edit otherwise while pretending to be impartial, yet these group of users collude on all airport articles that this occurs.

(edit conflict) I fixed it. This happened to me yesterday; I'm guessing if you don't enter the template correctly it pulls the name of the last editor of this page (in this case - you).-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 20:57, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

Apologies for the error in completing the form, the sections in which to enter text are not totally obvious but I made no intention to deceive. Back on topic, I only completed this form as a result of the attitude displayed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Ghmyrtle&diff=prev&oldid=939173418 Ghmyrtle is also claiming disruptive edits while breaking the 3RR rule to make changes from a long established status quo and claiming NPOV when looking to establish their own bias. I see this handle on many Brexit related articles and the NPOV only goes in one direction from this Editor. 46.208.194.84 (talk) 21:54, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

I am not involved in this 'dispute'.

Comments:

User is established enough to have sufficient understanding of WP:EW. The disruption has occurred at Death of Luo Changqing and dozens of other articles. CaradhrasAiguo (leave language) 00:23, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

I want to note that this user's focus is to purge Chinese media sources from all articles. Here is more evidence that the user's focus is to mass purge Chinese media sources from Wikipedia without much regard to the material: [48][49][50][51][52].... I do not want to list them all, but they run in the dozens. You just need to CTRL+F "Remove unreliable source" (if not misspelled) in the user's contributions.--Cold Season (talk) 00:33, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

No text was removed in those examples because the non-reliable source was either redunadnt or it was a non-BLP page and it didnt seem like terribly controversial content so was marked with a citation needed. As I have repeatedly told you I dont think that Chinese sources are inherently unreliable, see SCMP, but the vast majority do not satisfy WP:VERIFY. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 00:46, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

Don't muddy the waters by bringing up SCMP. You're well aware we're talking about mainland Chinese media here, not Hong Kong papers like SCMP. -Zanhe (talk) 05:48, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi guys, CaradhrasAiguo is what I would call my Wikipedia stalker, this isn't even the first time they’ve brought me to this noticeboard. I believe this falls under exception #7 at WP:3RRNO, if I misinterpreted the policy thats my bad and it won’t happen again. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 00:37, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

The non-BLP (such as Qatar Airways) disruption is not exempt under WP:3RRNO. This is a brazen exercise of WP:NOTTHEM and deflection.

Also, per the text at exception #7, Consider reporting to the BLP noticeboard instead of relying on this exemption. This has not been done in regard to actress/model Fan Bingbing.CaradhrasAiguo (leave language) 00:42, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

@Horse Eye Jack: It appears you think that Chinese media sources are not RS. But that does not fall under 3RRNO as there does not seem to be consensus or any apparent agreement that they are poor sources. You need to stop edit warring about this and bring up specific issues to WP:BLPN (which I see you did) or WP:RSN. Further, do not call uesrs "stalkers" without good cause (WP:ASPERSIONS). CaradhrasAiguo routinely edits on many of the pages in question and it would make sense that they are aware of your actions. EvergreenFir (talk) 00:44, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

I mean it lovingly but there is a long history between us and they make my wikipedia experience less enjoyable. Although I am not suggesting it actually rises to the level of a policy violation it is something other editors should be aware of given that CaradhrasAiguo claimed uninvolved status. I have no other user which chimes in on unrelated controversies I’m involved in much as they do. Our very first interaction was them randomly showing up on my talk page to join an argument against me. I think that *most* Chinese media sources are not RS, especially not for social or political topics related to China. There are some which fully satisfy WP:RS like the South China Morning Post which I cite frequently. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 00:57, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

No violation. You need more than three reverts to violate 3RR, in any case, so no need to invoke 3RRNO. As for the disputed sourcing requirement standards, indeed, that conversation belongs elsewhere, and it being conducted in good faith is key. If, however, there is evidence of hounding, a report about that may be submitted to AN/I. El_C 01:05, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

@EvergreenFir and El C: I agree this is strictly speaking not a violation of 3RR as there were only three reverts on Fan Bingbing. However, this article is just part of Horse Eye Jack's larger campaign to mass remove Chinese sources from dozens of articles and edit war when reverted by others. This is despite the fact that he was just recently involved in a discussion on the reliability of Chinese media sources at WP:RSN, see archived thread, and did not get any support for his view that they should be considered unreliable in all contexts. And this is not an isolated incident: during his relatively short editing career, numerous experienced editors have issued warnings on his talk page for editing warring and personal attacks, but he has almost always responded by arguing incessantly until others give up. -Zanhe (talk) 01:11, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

@Zanhe: I can see some of that in HEJ's contribs. But if there's a need for admin intervention, WP:ANI is the place to detail the issues. EvergreenFir (talk) 05:42, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

ANI can be a time sink and I've already wasted too much time on this user. His edit warring has stopped for now so I'll let it slide unless it happens again. -Zanhe (talk) 05:52, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

The problem is not only with purging Chinese sources; this user is purging content sourced by the Middle East Media Research Institute as well, even though there is no definitive judgement made on this source. However, according to Jack: Unless you can make an argument for them passing WP:VERIFY than stop using them. When you make a revert you are responsible for the content of that revery, please review WP:CHALLENGE. WP:CHALLENGE says that "The burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material, and it is satisfied by providing an inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the contribution." The edits I restored were sourced, using MEMRI as a source. However, since Jack challenges this source, he blindly reverts the edit. This is ridiculous. Thus, in such a way, I cannot make edits, unless I make a case that AND the content is sourced, AND give conclusive evidence that the given source is flawless beyond any doubt in the eyes of EVERY individual editor of Wikipedia. This severely violates the "anyone can edit"-ideology of Wikipedia. It drains the fun of editing it too, by the way. Best regards,Jeff5102 (talk) 09:25, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

Continual attempts to add commentary that that has nothing to do with the article subject. The first five attempts used unreliable sources (The Sun and a message board). --Calton | Talk 23:12, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

Blocked – 24 hours. There is a question whether Timothy Farron, a politician, actually made the 'bunch of clowns' comment attributed to him by The Sun (United Kingdom). If we are asserting this in Wikipedia's voice we should have a reliable source, which WP:THESUN is not. In any case, this matter has been questioned at BLPN.

He returned to Wikipedia today (6 February 2020) to file a ridiculous SPI report, accusing me of being Zefr, a user who has been here since 2009. This all started because a few days ago a banned sock-puppet BecameFree created the carnivore diet article and recruited various IPS as meat-puppets on social media platforms to edit here. After he was blocked he went onto several carnivore diet platforms and put up my Wikipedia username telling other users to come onto this website and get me banned. A carnivore diet user commenting off-site said he has a friend "high-up" on Wikipedia and he would ask him to get me banned. This is obviously referring to Mr. Vernon who is not "high-up", he simply is a pending changes reviewer who has not been active in over two years here. This filing was done out of a grudge. I have been harassed off-site by these people and this user Vernon is continuing it here. I have not vandalized any article. I reverted several sock-puppets that were making problematic edits and the article was locked for 2 weeks because of my request. Trying to stop POV editing or vandalism from recruited meat-puppets is not heavy edit warring. If you look at the IPS I reverted they had no constructive contributions on that article. Psychologist Guy (talk) 18:15, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

Accusing someone who has been heavily active in vandalism (though not recently due to the loss of two loved ones, as it says on my User page) a "meat puppet" is a violation of WP:GOODFAITH, it might be helpful to read that article again. There's a time in reverting what is not clearly vandalism that you escalate to admins to protect the page if needed. Throwing this accusation around is offensive. Removing my report of you to this page as "taking out the trash", doubly so. If you have proof of this, bring it to the admins. Otherwise it might be best to remember what WP:OWNERSHIP says about how we treat pages. --Mr. Vernon (talk) 01:02, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

Some honesty is in order, you have not been heavy active in reverting vandalism for years. You have not been active on Wikipedia since 25 November 2018. You came onto Wikipedia yesterday after nearly two years of silence to attack me by filing a stupid SPI case which failed and this which will also fail. I have never heard of you before yesterday and nobody knows my Wikipedia account until it was spammed all over social media in a negative way by a banned user here. I mostly make tame edits here to obscure figures, so why would you in all that time off this website suddenly pop up and target me? It's obvious why.

Your first edit after nearly two years was to file this [66]. You have been canvassed off-site to do that, there is proof of that in the comments on these off-site threads, I would be happy to email the foundation about this harassment and give them the evidence. You have a personal grudge against me because you have fallen for the lies spammed onto several websites about me, none of it is true. Another user has documented those off-site threads here, created by a banned sock-puppet. You seem to be siding with banned sock-puppets. In the future do some real research and do not blindly believe everything you read on social media websites. I will not be further responding here about this. My email is open is anyone needs it.

Update I see you are now harassing and stalking me here Psychologist Guy (talk) 01:46, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

Despite a lengthy analysis of the sources on the article's TP, and admin agreeing that "to say that the MEK is a cult outright does not seem to mirror the available sources. It comes across as an hyperbole. By contrast, referring to cult-like attributes seems like a good compromise that resolves that.", Mhhossein has nevertheless been slowly edit-warring this text back into the article (which is under IRANPOL restrictions) without consensus.

Flagrant edit-warring of unreferenced information in a BLP. User was just article-blocked from David Hogg (activist) for edit-warring; user clearly knows and understands 3RR at this point. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 03:51, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

I will not pursue my original addition to the article any further, since it seems Koavf clearly has a team of other editors ready to take his side. I’d also like to point out that it seems NorthBySouthBaranof has been following my edits with the sole purpose of inciting and inflaming conflict in order to have blocks placed on my account. Is there somewhere I can go to have this behaviour addressed? 95Larick (talk) 03:57, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Blocked – for a period of one week. 95Larick, please note that next time you are reported for edit warring, the block will not be partial — it will be site wide. El_C 03:57, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

I’m sure NorthBySouthBaranof is standing by to be the first to file another malicious and frivolous report. I can’t help but to feel that this harassment is linked to my being gay. I’d thought that Wikipedia was progressive and accepting, but I suppose not. 95Larick (talk) 04:01, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

That aspersion is unacceptable. Please don't repeat such accusations without evidence, or you risk being sanctioned for violating the no personal attacks policy. El_C 04:10, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Please read that again carefully. It was not an accusation, but an observation starting with “I can’t help but to feel that...” I would appreciate it if others refrained from accusing me of casting aspersions. Thank you 95Larick (talk) 04:27, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

That is an aspersion. You cannot accuse other editors of bigotry without evidence. Full stop. El_C 04:28, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

At this point, given edits like this one, I have to think we're looking at someone who is not here to improve the encyclopedia. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 04:33, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

I don't have time at the moment to fully investigate but I am inclined to indefinitely block 95Larick because using an article to denigrate another editor is extremely unhelpful. Perhaps someone with a moment could check. Johnuniq (talk) 04:36, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Johnuniq, in what way do you think that I have used an article to denigrate another editor? Such a statement is an aspersions that borders on a personal attack. 95Larick (talk) 04:40, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Yes, Johnuniq, do you have a diff to substantiate that? El_C 04:43, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

El_C Have you looked at the edits involved in this edit-war? It's a series of attempts to ram unsourced arguably-negative material into the biography of a notable Wikipedian for no apparent reason. Then the nacc template is basically straight-up trolling Koavf, who has responded with admirable restraint. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 04:46, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Look at the talk page for the article: My intentions for adding the statement are the same as those of another editor who tried in 2016 and was stonewalled by Koavf who clearly has a biased interest in his own article. 95Larick (talk) 04:50, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

You appear to be trying to misrepresent the RFA process as a means to denigrate Koavf. There is no shame in failing an RFA. The edits by Anna Frodesiak you mention were far more neutrally worded. Acroterion (talk) 04:54, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Sorry for not providing a diff but I was referring to the evidence at "Diffs of the user's reverts" above. Johnuniq (talk) 06:22, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

And they just reverted Koavf's reasonable removal of the superfluous nacc templates. The duck is quacking quite loudly. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 04:40, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

95Larick, you should not be modifying other editors' comments, even on your own talk page. El_C 04:43, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

No violation. The earliest diff does not appear to constitute a revert, but is a simple edit. The Previous version reverted to parameter was left blank, so I'm going with that initial finding until proven otherwise. El_C 05:18, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

• Comment This is pretty much a battleground attitude by Gotitbro. He has been reverting my edits but failed to provide a single source other than false accusations. His edits-warrings are purely disruptive in nature for which he has been blocked from editing the article and now he has reported me as a retaliation. Za-ari-masen (talk) 05:19, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C: That is clearly a revert if you look through the edit itself. While the user maybe trying to single me out, their accusations could very well apply to themselves. Gotitbro (talk) 05:28, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@Gotitbro: to make it clear, please provide a diff to the original edit of which this was a reversion of. El_C 05:29, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C: This is the initial edit (as in the above report). All in all constituting a 3RR violation along with the subsequent reverts. Gotitbro (talk) 05:32, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@Gotitbro: that only makes three reverts, then. You listed it as a revert, which was in error. El_C 05:34, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C: What I am saying that that edit is infact a revert if you look through the actual diff, it is reverting my edit but the edit just hasn't been tagged as such. Counting in this edits makes a 3RR violation. Please see and go through that initial edit/revert, it is clearly undoing my preceding edit. Gotitbro (talk) 05:40, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@Gotitbro: you need to provide a diff to prove that. El_C 05:44, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C: I did provide that above. Here you go, the edit/revert: [1]. Gotitbro (talk) 05:49, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Gotitbro, that doesn't prove the edit constitutes a revert. You need to provide a different diff — a diff representing the Previous version reverted to. El_C 05:53, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C:Oh sorry (feel really dumb now). Here is the diff the user has reverted to: [1]. Gotitbro (talk) 05:59, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Gotitbro, you're still not getting it. I'm looking for a similar version that is earlier than 20:49, 9 February 2020 (UTC) so that I can prove the earliest diff you list above constitutes a revert instead of being merely a bold edit. El_C 06:05, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C:Ok. Here is a version before 8 Feb with the exact same content (except the pp temp), and here is the first revert which undoes my edit to that version or specifically this version (with pp temps). Gotitbro (talk) 06:11, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Gotitbro, please provide diffs rather than old revisions. El_C 06:13, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C: Here: version before 8 feb, initial revert. Hope this is fine now. Gotitbro (talk) 06:22, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

1RR violation, no self revert despite warning. User makes a speculative unreferenced synthesis edit to the lede of a hot article. I remove it saying it violates the rules. User restores saying "It deserves a place". I again mention specifically the rules with links WP:SYNTH WP:CRYSTALBALL. User restores it again saying, "You can't remove sourced info". After notifying him of 1RR violation he tells me "You did the same thing". He also further warns me on my talk page saying I attacked him. Gilesartq (talk) 06:58, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

He was blocked before for edit warring as well. [92] Gilesartq (talk) 07:03, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

I did self-revert as you requested. You are also guilty for having removed content without going to the talk page. You have also assumed bad faith numerous times towards other editors.

some edit summaries explains that: Take out bunch of unreferenced nonsense from the lede, Take out the reckless synthesis/original research from the lede written by pure speculations, Take out further, excuse my French, "Bullshit" or rather original research from the lede, You must have some seriously brain challenge to write, "encircle 8 points and besiege a 9th" instead of writing "encircle 9". --Sakiv (talk) 07:04, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

User Self-reverted, still waiting for an admin summary regarding the future addition of sythesis/OR and speculation to the lede so the dispute can be solved. Gilesartq (talk) 07:09, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

I even self-reverted before he reported me. I made only one revert in fact not two as you claim. He seems not so concerned about talking as demonstrated in his talk page. As you can see in the last summaries he uses the word retaliation which is considered by many a biased word in this type of controversial articles. I asked him why he regards the additions as OR or synthesis but he didn't answer me. Again I had a good reason to restore the appropriately sourced text to the short introdoction while he continued to use the same summary without going into depth in the talk.--Sakiv (talk) 10:31, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

The claim being edit warred back in the article is not included in the linked reference and makes an assumption that falls afoul of BLP. There is a special edit header on the article stating "Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard. If you are connected to one of the subjects of this article and need help, see this page." Mr Ernie (talk) 09:25, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

The information is clearly in the source, and you're using a specious BLP argument on this info to try and bully your changes through. Mr Ernie (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), you've ignored WP:BRD, and you've made no effort to discuss on the talk page Gogolwold (talk) 09:28, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Also note a report from a few days ago with much the same behavior from Gogolwold - here. Mr Ernie (talk) 09:34, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

That is a completely different scenario, and one in which I admit is was warring and rightly sanctioned for it. This situation is different. You are in violation of WP:BRD, and you're trying to force through a content dispute issue with an unsupported BLP claim. You're making no effort to engage on the talk page and you're trying to game a WP:3RR block to get your way.Gogolwold (talk) 09:42, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

It is impossible to be "in violation of BRD". as it says at the top of that page, "This page is not one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community" The relevant policy is at WP:EW. --Guy Macon (talk) 12:06, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Please see WP:ONUS. Nevertheless I started the discussion that you should have, instead of edit warring. Mr Ernie (talk) 09:45, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

that's a complete misrepresentation. I started the talk discussion some time ago https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Impeachment_trial_of_Donald_Trump&diff=prev&oldid=940234013. You've ignored that and come straight to noticeboard to get your way. The onus is on you anyhow since you ignore WP:BRD.Gogolwold (talk) 09:54, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, didn't see that. You need to reach consensus before edit warring to include challenged material back into an article. Mr Ernie (talk) 09:58, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

I'd agree if there's a BLP violation, but there isn't. You're engaged in what is a content dispute over sourced material and claiming it it's a BLP. Gogolwold (talk) 10:04, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Let’s take it to the talk page. Please self revert until there is consensus. It’s quite simple really. Mr Ernie (talk) 10:06, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

I already did, and have also responded to your segment. There's no need to self revert, since it's quite simple.Gogolwold (talk) 10:14, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

I think this is resolved now per the article talk, at least in terms the content, so I suppose I'm just at the mercy of Admin...Gogolwold (talk) 13:44, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

No need for admin action. Mr Ernie (talk) 15:48, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Agree. I just reverted one of his edits with the comment "don't say 'apparently in retaliation'. If Pelosi and Schumer accuse Trump of retaliation, cite who made the accusation and when." and instead of edit warring he inserted the correctly attributed accusations with good sources, and even found another one. While the difs above show a 3RR violation, I don't believe that there will be any further edit warring. Gogolwold's latest edit very much improved the article. I suggest this be closed with a result of "no action required". --Guy Macon (talk) 16:22, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Yes, thank you. Mr Ernie (talk) 17:43, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Lengthy defence by ChocolateTrain. Click to view. EdJohnston (talk) 17:23, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
I would like to preface this by saying I don't know if this is the right place to defend myself, but I will write it here anyway. Jasper Deng, the whistle-blower, has also been involved in the same edit war, and has also broken the three revert rule. As the saying goes, "It takes two to tango", and it would be hypocritical to suggest that I am the only one at fault here. Our dispute relates to the inclusion or exclusion of a now-contentious section within the 2019–20 Australian region cyclone season article. All articles relating to tropical cyclones belong to WikiProject Tropical Cyclones (herein referred to as WPTC), which sets out a number of guidelines for the articles. The world's tropics are split into seven different regions, which are each monitored by a different official weather agency (called a regional specialised meteorological centre, or RSMC) which is tasked by the World Meteorological Organisation (referred to as WMO herein) to be officially responsible for all tropical cyclone related information, forecasts and warnings within their respective region. Frequently, these weather agencies publish contradictory information regarding the same weather system. As a result, it is an important and long-standing rule in that where a contradiction arises, we must use the official information provided by the relevant tropical cyclone regions's RSMC in WPTC articles. The RSMC for the Australian tropical cyclone region is the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (herein referred to as the BOM). On 3–5 February 2020, the BOM published several official products which demonstrated the existence of a tropical low (a type of weak tropical cyclone) within the Australian region, for which they are the official agency. I happened to archive some of these (1 2 3 4); however, not all of them, as I never imagined that I would have to justify my edits to this extent. Later on 5 February, the BOM indicated that the tropical low had moved into the neighbouring tropical cyclone region—the South Pacific basin—by moving to the east of longitude 160°E. As such, the Fiji Meteorological Service (referred to as FMS herein) assumed the responsibility of issuing advisories on the system as they are the RSMC for the South Pacific basin. I completed the relevant section in the article (called Tropical Low Uesi) with this information, and it remained untouched (aside from minor alterations such as grammar and punctuation) for several days until 10 February, indicating the existence of consensus. At this point, another editor (Jason Rees, who I am not going to officially notify because he is not involved in the edit war and I don't want to get him unfairly dragged into this) deleted the section entirely and informed me on my talk page that he did not believe the tropical low was in fact ever in the Australian region, and that it had instead first formed in the South Pacific region, and therefore he deleted its section from the article. We both discussed the evidence involved in the situation. He had formed his opinion that the tropical low never existed in the Australian region based on information from the FMS (not the RSMC for the Australian region, and therefore an unofficial source). This is in contradiction to the BOM's official advice for the Australian region (for which they are the RSMC), which clearly states here, "A weak tropical low lies along the trough southwest of the Solomon Islands." This source states near the bottom that, "The area of coverage for this outlook is the Coral Sea and northern Tasman Sea west of 160E", all of which is located within the Australian region, whose boundaries can be viewed here and here. As such, it can be concluded based on official information from the RSMC that the tropical low did in fact exist within the Australian region. The BOM's official mean sea level pressure analysis (MSLP) chart for the Australian region at 06:00 UTC on 3 February—within two hours of the BOM's tropical cyclone outlook's publication—shows the location of the tropical low within the mentioned monsoon trough to the southwest of the Solomon Islands, located well within the bounds of the Australian region (at or west of 160°E). As the official information from the RSMC (the BOM, in this case) always takes precedence over supplementary information from unofficial sources such as the FMS and JTWC (United States Joint Typhoon Warning Center) per WPTC guidelines that existed even before I started Wikipedia, I restored the deleted section (to the previous consensus) in accordance with the several pieces of evidence I provided from the BOM. At this point, Jasper Deng began his involvement. Without addressing any of the evidence I provided, he reverted my edit. I then took the time to explain my reasoning again on the article talk page so it was in a central location rather than my own talk page, and informed Jasper Deng and Jason Rees of my intention to keep the section in the article. After doing so, Jasper Deng and I engaged in a very short edit war, after which he reported me here. No information whatsoever has been provided by the whistle-blower to support his reversions. All that has been provided is some alphabet soup links to WP:BRD and WP:BURDEN, the comment that I need to follow consensus, and the claim that I don't wish to follow WP:BRD. The reference to WP:BURDEN is almost comically ironic, given that I have provided a wealth of official information to support my position, whereas the whistle-blower and proponents of the opposing viewpoint have provided none (unofficial evidence has been provided by Jason Rees, who has been very civil throughout the whole discussion, but the whistle-blower has not given any evidential support for his case). I am always happy to follow WP:BRD (despite it not being a policy, contrary to the whistle-blower's assertions), which is shown by my explanations for reversions in edit summaries, and my willingness to use talk pages. I agree that I should follow consensus, and that is what I was doing when I restored the section that had existed for several days without issue. As it can surely be seen, the basis of my reverting the edits to the previous consensus is not my own judgement, opinion or feelings, and certainly not intended with malice; rather, it is in accordance with multiple pieces of factual evidence published by the official weather agency for the Australian region as designated by the WMO. Statememts made by other unofficial agencies such as the FMS and JTWC do not hold any authority in the Australian region, and as such, their information is inadmissible as justification for the deletion of article sections written using information from the official RSMC. Quite frankly, the repeated, unjustifiable deletion of a section which cites official information and where the evidence has been explained both on my talk page and on the article talk page amounts to vandalism, or at the very least, obstruction or some form of misconduct. I find the fact that the whistle-blower has chosen to take the route of attempting to have me reprimanded, rather than seeking to discuss the issue logically as I have attempted to do for the last 24 hours here and here, indicative of the fact that they have no real argument against my position and would prefer to threaten me instead to make me back down. Make of that what you will. I am normally a reserved person and would much rather not have to get involved in disputes like this. I admit that I should not have got myself involved in an edit war; however, I will defend myself and I will fight for what is correct, and I will not hesitate to amend or revert edits which are demonstrably false. ChocolateTrain (talk) 13:00, 12 February 2020 (UTC) P.S.: I apologise for the length of this defence; however, I felt that it was necessary to fully explain the context of the situation for the administrators to be able to form a proper judgement. I know that the whistle-blower has had issues with me in the past for being overly verbose, but I am simply presenting and explaining the facts to prevent confusion and properly convey information. ChocolateTrain (talk) 13:08, 12 February 2020 (UTC)

The diffs offered above show four reverts by User:ChocolateTrain beginning at 06:10 on 11 February. The statements by Chocolate Train suggest an intention to continue warring. This user is risking a block unless they agree that their Uesi material can be removed. It should wait until consensus in its favor is found on the talk page. EdJohnston (talk) 17:26, 12 February 2020 (UTC)

@EdJohnston: Of course I don't intend to continue edit warring. That would just be shooting myself in the foot. My question to you is when did the consensus change from supporting the inclusion to supporting the exclusion? There was a consensus for inclusion lasting several days as per WP:IMPLICITCONSENSUS which transitioned directly into a dispute over inclusion on 10 February. There was never a consensus to have it removed, and as per WP:NOCON, the article should be kept in the original consensus state until consensus is reached otherwise. This is directly in line with Wikipedia policy. I would also contend that you have somewhat misrepresented, perhaps unintentionally, my defence piece and have not addressed the points I made. ChocolateTrain (talk) 17:43, 12 February 2020 (UTC)

Warned. There's a few problems with this report. First it is a borederline 3RR violation only, since the last edit is two hours outside the 24 hour window. In those instances, I tend to close with a warning that a similar violation will result in sanctions. Secondly, the Previous version reverted to parameter was left blank, which makes parsing the dispute's editing history difficult. ChocolateTrain's version does seem to represent the status quo ante, which per WP:ONUS, is the version that ought to be displayed while the matter is discussed. That, however, has little bearing on 3RR violations. El_C 18:10, 12 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C: Thank you for your decision and consideration. I accept the warning. I would like some advice, however. In the future, how should I best go about seeking resolutions to such disputes? I have spent hours explaining myself on this one subject, now in three separate places, and I have received hardly any discussion of the subject matter in return from Jasper Deng, except for incorrect alphabet soup references, misrepresentation of my evidence, and criticism of my writing style. This has happened before, where this editor has dismissed my entire argument as "hand-waving" and initially refused to respond because my comment was longer than 500 bytes. How can I possibly reach consensus in situations like this where I often spend hours trying my utmost to bring all relevant evidence to the table and yet just get offhandedly dismissed and have alphabet soup references to irrelevant or misused Wikipedia policy thrown at me in return? When the other editor simply refuses to engage and refuses to admit they are wrong, even in the face of a wealth of evidence, I don't see how any progress towards consensus can be made. This is how such an edit war could arise. ChocolateTrain (talk) 18:31, 12 February 2020 (UTC)

@ChocolateTrain: if you reach an impasse on the article talk page, you should turn to dispute resolution and accompanying requests with the aim of bringing further outside input to the dispute. Rather than edit warring, remaining patient (and perhaps relying on pertinent tags, such as {{NPOV}}, etc.) while this process takes its course, is also key. Hope this helps. El_C 18:37, 12 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C: Thank you again. I will try some of those avenues in the future if it is ever needed (I hope not). Explaining the entire dispute to a third party can be difficult, as demonstrated by the length of my defence piece in the collpased box. It takes a lot of time for a petty issue. It adds to my frustration that if I make an edit supported by evidence, I get reverted and then reported for edit warring seemingly as tactic to avoid discussion; if I don't make the edit, the factually incorrect version gets to stay because of stubbornness and refusal to discuss openly. It is a lose-lose situation where the one who makes all the effort comes out worse. It's hard to have a positive outlook. Anyway, thank you for your help once again.

Comments:

This editor is editwarring and using unreliable sources like Arabnews and Al Arabyia while refusing to discuss this in the talk page in an article with 1rr sanction. The editor is also misquoting what the source is saying and is also pushing a POV by creating a category for US-North Korea proxy conflict and adding the Yemeni civil war as part of it. You can also see here when he added North Korea and China as part of the Axis of Resistance. I think this editor is trying to make a meme of Wikipedia. I am unable to see any indication that this editor is here to build Wikipedia. SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 00:50, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

I stopped believing about Russia, North Korea and China being part of the Axis of Resistance last year. I had added reliable adding sources as Reuters and CNN (though info from Al-Arabiya may not be true). I am trying not making a meme out of Wikipedia. I do know that everyone believes that this an edit war, I say this is a dispute because Al-Arabiya maybe a unreliable source but it has reliable retails. Unlike other report in this noticeboard, this is going to be more of a dispute because while my recent edits to Yemen's ongoing civil war may look like a edit war, I was actually trying to show the title, the date it published, the quote (parts of the news article) and the news agency (so that is seems okay as anyone can do that). SpinnerLaserz (talk) 00:57, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

SpinnerLaserz, two editors have removed north Korea as it is not properly sourced. You added Arabnews then Al Arabiya to support your point of view and yet not starting a discussion. You added north korea twice in a violation of 1rr. I also noticed that you misattributed when you added the source and the content you added, therefore, is not supported by the source. You are refusing to discuss this and you went and created a category just to further push your point of view. You also added Cuba few days ago and then after I reverted your edit in one of the Yemeni civil war articles (after 12 days), you self-reverted saying that someone should use glasses. I dont think you read any source, you just add a source and then add whatever you want.--SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 01:18, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

• No violation. This is the edit warring and 3RR noticeboard, and neither of those have occurred here. This is a content dispute and should be discussed on the talk page - where there hasn't been an edit since November. Black Kite (talk) 01:22, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

Johnbod leaves lots of snipes and personal attacks in their comments, this goes back years:

1. [117] - humph
2. [118] - nonsense - especially when the lead is FAR too short
3. [119] - wrong - pointless intermediary cat
4. [120] - No, there were far too many deletions, and often the wrong ones were removed

Referencing the edit war above, Johnbod is seriously over involved in some minutia of editing, and in this case violates WP:Own. Whether or not one agrees on editing, Johnbod engages in personal attacks, and the editing on this article appears to be an extension of the actions here. This was also noted at Wikipedia:Administrators%27 noticeboard/Incidents#Lotus throne. In any case, Johnbod does not act in accordance with Wikipedia:Civility, and this should be noted.

71.178.132.138 (talk) 16:00, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

• Yes, indeed, Wikipedia:Administrators%27 noticeboard/Incidents#Lotus throne should be read. For some strange reason this supposedly new ip has decided he must continue User:Evrik's breaches of WP:CITEVAR, upon which the following comments were made last time:
  • "I wouldn't have put it quite as Johnbod did, but your edit clearly does violate WP:CITEVAR, in particular the instruction to avoid "adding citation templates to an article that already uses a consistent system without templates"." ... Caeciliusinhorto-public (talk) 15:40, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
  • "Evrik, you should not have changed an existing citation style, if only because this brings exactly no benefit to readers. Please don't do it again. .... Sandstein 20:10, 13 January 2020 (UTC)"
  • "Evrik's edits didn't only violate CITEVAR. He also didn't make the conversion to sfn correctly (see this version). He left out ref=harv, which meant the short cites weren't linked to the long cites, making the conversion pointless, and as a result the Notes section contained 24 red error messages (e.g. "Harv error: link from CITEREFPal1986 doesn't point to any citation") for editors with the relevant script installed. He also wrote p= instead of pp= for multiple pages, and used hyphens instead of en dash. The errors left the article in poor shape for its day on the main page. I can see why Johnbod would have been annoyed. SarahSV ^(talk) 21:27, 13 January 2020 (UTC)"
  • "...Evrik's edit was a violation of CITEVAR and very poor for other reasons, unfortunately in time for a main-page appearance. The original author should be allowed some leeway. To block an editor with no history of trouble and a clean block log, over 24 hours after the post and 16 hours after the complaint, seems heavy-handed. SarahSV ^(talk) 22:05, 13 January 2020 (UTC)"

When he came to my talk page a day or two ago, this was added:

• "::Arguing html style over article content is the very definition of a red flag, to be avoided like the plague, editor. No offence 71.178.130.61, but go argue tiresome archinia and cat's breath on another website. Noting the AN/I report was closed several days ago. Let...it...go... Ceoil (talk) 21:15, 8 February 2020 (UTC)".

- nuff said, I think. Since the user changes ip addresses every three days or so, a WP:BOOMERANG would no doubt miss. but he doesn't seem to be here to build an encyclopaedia. Johnbod (talk) 16:21, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

I faintly recall having had some less than friendly interactions with Johnbod throughout the years but I cannot say that I found any snipes or personal attacks in the last of the comments listed in this complaint. I do not think that the edit summary was anything more than constructive criticism of my edit. Surtsicna (talk) 16:42, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

Thanks! Johnbod (talk) 18:03, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Will the filing IP clarify whether they also used other adddresses in the range Special:Contributions/71.178.128.0/18? For example, there was a prior edit to Lotus throne in this edit by 71.178.131.157 as well as this edit by 71.178.128.7 (talk · contribs). And, an IP in that range left a welcome message for their own IP. Another self-welcome is here. I hope the IP is willing to clear this up, since the behavior looks deceptive. EdJohnston (talk) 18:24, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

They must be the same person, but they may well be with an isp that auto-rotates addresses as some do. Whether they are also User:Evrik is something I've asked myself. Johnbod (talk) 22:40, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

I have been on a wikibreak these last few weeks, and will probably be on one until I have time to focus on editing again. I was alerted to this discussion and wanted to make a comment. Prior to Lotus throne, Johnbod and I have had a number of pages that we mutually edited on, but few real interactions. I made three edits on Lotus throne to clean it up for a DYK nomination, that was seven weeks ago, and before it made the front page. I am going to rely on what I said here, Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1028#Lotus throne as what I have to say about this whole situation. Do me a favor, leave my name out of this. Thanks. --evrik ^(talk) 16:53, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

I get the impression that this user is deliberately going out of his way to troll me. One can quite clearly see that on his talk page the way he responds to other users after he deliberately antagonises them with reverts and abuse (swearing, etc). I have been very reasonable and I created a section on the talk page on the article and this user has failed to give his reason(s) why he thinks ‘also’ is the better word choice.--Nature987765 (talk) 04:33, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

He was the one who actually changed the words and added ‘also’, but he refuses to explain why he chose that word when I have pointed out that there is nothing extra about someone’s given name.--Nature987765 (talk) 04:46, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Uninvolved editor here. FTP's refusal to discuss the issue and a general uncollaborative attitude is worrying. @FlightTime Phone:, please make at least the slightest attempts to discuss whatever it is that you accuse another editor of edit-warring over before filing an unwarranted report like this one. Also, Nature made a grand total of ONE revert in the period of time in question. I would suggest you delete this ludicrous report and reconsider your own behaviour. ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 12:38, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

@Oldstone James: Thanks for your help. The only responses I have received from the user are telling me to wait until another person has replied before making another comment on the talk page and just because I explained something it does not make it true. I feel like I’m not going to be able to ever get a reasonable from him. Ironically, his ‘reason’ to undo my edit which was changing ‘also’ to ‘often’ was simply “no, it is not”. What are my options? Thank you.--Nature987765 (talk) 14:28, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

To be honest, I think your situation is just unfortunate, but one solution is to post the issue on the talk page on one of the related projects or Wiki pages, such as WP:MOS. In fact, I'd say your chances of gaining consensus for your edit are pretty good, as your justification seems pretty reasonable to me. If you do decide to do so, I'd support your case, as "Elvis" is clearly not an addition or alternative to "Elvis Presley" but instead a simple contraction. ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 15:05, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

@Oldstone James: Exactly, just like “Beyoncé” is a contraction of “Beyonce Knowles” and “Madonna” is a contraction of “Madonna Ciccone”. I created a section on the article’s talk page. If you could kindly respond on the section, I would greatly appreciate it. Do you think I should bother creating a section on the talk page of WP:MOS? Or, is a section on the talk page of the article enough for now? Thanks again.--Nature987765 (talk) 15:34, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk:Round the Horne#More edit warring

Comments:
I've requested he use the talk page on several occasions, pointing out that this has gone through two community review procedures (PR and FAC), and that he would be best advised discuss. These requests have been ignored. - SchroCat (talk) 16:19, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

• After leaving the required notice of this report, Drfrench decided to post a warning on my page too. This appears to be more of a knee-jerk challenge, rather than a sensible response. - SchroCat (talk) 16:24, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

I requested that SchroCat point me in the direction of these community review procedure and related discussions as there is nothing obvious about it on the talk page. This request has been ignored. I've asked SchroCat not to revert an entire edit just because he disagrees with part of it. But he ignores this and keeps on removing a number of changes made to the page which are unrelated to his original gripe.

The warning I posted on his talk page asked him not to revert an entire edit just becasue he disagreed with one tine aspect of it. I posted this as he clearly did not read or take note of my edit summary. It looks like he did not read or take note of the warning template either. DrFrench (talk) 16:36, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

(edit conflict) I have seen no request for that, particularly ON THE TALK PAGE, which is where such a comment should have been made way before you got to 4RR. My original comment stated that the article had gone through PR and FAC - if you had visited the talk page, you would have seen links to both discussions at the top of the page. I have reverted poor changes to the article. You do not know what I agree with or not because you have not bothered to use the flaming talk page to discuss anything at all: you've just carried on edit warring your preferred version in place.

In future, do not try and guess what I have or have not read: you do not know. If you had used the talk page to ask, I would have told you, but you haven't bothered: you have continued to edit war past the bright-line rule we have to stop such behaviour. And, as I've already pointed out, your posting of the "warning template" was after I pasted the 3RR warning on your page, after you breached that to revert a fourth time, after I posted this report here and after I left the notification of this report. That's a long time for you to get to grips with the situation - and you still have not bothered with the talk page to discuss why you have changed the WP:STATUS QUO from the consensus decided at two community review processes.

One further point: please don't label your edits as "minor" when they obviously are not (as you did here). - SchroCat (talk) 16:44, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

And pointlessly badgering me on my talk page? Really? - SchroCat (talk) 16:52, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

I haven't posted anything on the article's talk page becasue you still didn't bother to respond to my request for you to point me in the direction of the PR and FAC as I had no idea what they meant. I did visit the the talk page and searched for 'language' and 'url' (and related search terms) to find evidence of a discussion, but found none. I can now see the link to a Peer Review and Featured article candidate on the talk page. If you had explained that civily in the first place...

When you first posted on ly talk page, I replied to you underneath your commenmt using the 'reply to' template (see diff) which seems a pretty standard way of doing things. But you never bothered to respond. Whilst waiting for yopu to respond, I thought I'd continue with some other uncontentious edits. But you decided to start reverting everything I did.

As for incorrectly marking an edit as minor. Well, the edit was originally just to remove two extraneaous ]] characters. But there was an edit conflict because you had decided to revert a number of other small changes (e.g. to the picture caption, to some other minor formatting, changing the word 'continually' to the more accurate 'regularly'. I forgot to untick the minor flag after putting those small changes back in. But (once again) in your reverting frenzy, you undid my edit.

It looks like you are equally 'guilty' of everything you are accusing me of. As well as a degree of WP:OWNERSHIP. As for 'badgering' you, I don't think that asking you to read edit sumamaries before reverting them is 'badgering'. Nor is asking you to be civil in edit summaries. DrFrench (talk) 17:30, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Ah, I now see your attempt at a ping, but it was malformed, so it was never received. If you are going to ping someone you have to re-sign your post, otherwise it does not work.

You need to use the article talk page next time. I don't watch your pages, but I do watch the article, and that talk page is where any comment about the topic should be raised.

Despite your slurs above, I was not in a "reverting frenzy". If you had bothered to raise the questions on the talk page you would have been given answers and we could have discussed the merits or the status quo and the suggested alterations.

I wondered how long it would be before there was an accusation of OWNership. It's amazing how many times people come up with that one when trying to change a long-standing status quo without bothering with discussion. Please see WP:FAOWN, and try to realise there is a difference between WP:STEWARDSHIP and ownership. It's as uncivil to accuse me of that as it is to pointlessly badger me on my talk page. - SchroCat (talk) 17:56, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: A discussion was already ongoing with other users on several topics (initiated by me asking for other opinions) on the talk page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:USS_Nimitz_UFO_incident and specifically on the last edit (which trumpeted several above discussions with multiple editors) Talk:USS_Nimitz_UFO_incident#NPOV and Wikipedia's voice. Parallel discussion (once again initiated by me preventively) was being conducted here: Wikipedia:Fringe_theories/Noticeboard#USS_Nimitz_UFO_incident

Comments:
I have restrained myself from escalating this further as a similar incident with this user has happened this week on the page Bob Lazar where me and other users were constructively collaborating (although not always agreeing as is normal) and editing the page. The same user had swooped in and reverted everything https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bob_Lazar&diff=940705486&oldid=940662987 with the same approach and ignoring all ongoing discussion. His behaviour is destructive and doesn't assume good faith at all. His tone has only changed once I have notified him of this report. I had previously notified and asked for comments from the Wikipedia:Fringe_theories/Noticeboard in an effort to promote a discussion. I have only received personal attacks to my work from that group and a strong bias against me with no effort to assume good faith.

Simple proof of how indiscriminate the user's reverts were: of the -2,344 characters removed +2,050 belonged to an entire paragraph that he was in favour of and that I and other users were discussing in detail in the talk page. I pointed this out to the user and he promptly restored it saying "This is worthy of inclusion!" https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=USS_Nimitz_UFO_incident&diff=940945188&oldid=940944267

What a lazy contribution. Clearly aimed as silencing my voice and the ongoing discussions.

This is why Wikipedia becomes hard to approach for new editors. I have repeatedly pointed out WP:ROWN and even received a comment by and admin saying that "it is just an essay". What a pity if this is where the project is going.

Thank you for your attention. --Gtoffoletto (talk) 18:37, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

No violation. The edit warring listed above is not severe enough to require administrative intervention — there needs to be more than three reverts for the 3 revert rule to come into effect. El_C 18:45, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

This is a pattern. I've had exactly the same experiences with this user in the past. The process goes something like this: a discussion takes place on the talk page; consensus is reached after days/weeks of collaborative effort; jps comes in and changes the consensus version to one of their own liking; other editors, some of whom are jps' friends, and some others who simply like jps' version, edit-war this version into the article; another lengthy, totally unnecessary collaborative effort (but one which jps had forced) irons out the flaws in jps's version, but not after hours, days, or weeks of wasted time; post-hoc, jps calls the editors with whom he has disagreed pretentious, arrogant, incompetent, and unable to collaborate or listen to others. I have witnessed this process many times in the past - and not with just me, but with at least 5 different editors on at least 5 independent occasions. Honestly, I don't think a block will solve the problem. In my opinion, further sanctions are necessary. ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 18:54, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

(conflicted)I am aware that the user has not reached the 3 revert rule limit. He clearly is careful about it. However his edit warring behaviour has been the same across 2 pages in the last week as reported above. He refuses to engage in discussion and proceeds blindly reverting every time. No amount of discussion can prevent this behaviour which is clearly a well rehearsed MO. Is this behaviour the acceptable standard for WP:CIVIL and WP:GOODFAITH on wikipedia? Should this report be posted elsewhere? Thanks --Gtoffoletto (talk) 18:57, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Exactly my point User:Oldstone James +1. It is insane and there is no way of getting through to them in a civil manner. Thanks for the support --Gtoffoletto (talk) 19:02, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

@Gtoffoletto: jps does seem to be engaging in discussion on the article talk page, so I'm not sure on what basis you're claiming otherwise. You speak of civility and goodfaith in the same breath as accusing them of "a well rehearsed MO," without seemingly taking account of the irony there. Neither you nor Oldstone James provide documentation to go along with your claims that there is a pattern of misconduct — but, indeed, this would not be the forum in which to do so. El_C 19:04, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

His engagement is always "a posteriori" and a total facade. I have reported two such incidents. The only ones I have been part of. I'm not sure if User:Oldstone James is talking of the same events or separate ones. But if he does, that would constitute a clear pattern in my mind. What he has stated is EXACTLY the MO I reported by jps and his friends (in my case he was the worst offender but clearly supported by a tight circle of always the same contributors). I tried assuming good faith for a week. I failed in stimulating a constructive discussion and mine and other contributions have been wasted despite all efforts. More info available maybe? Or others will come up? --Gtoffoletto (talk) 19:15, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

If there is a pattern of misconduct, a well-documented request at Arbitration enforcement (since this dispute falls under ARBPS), or at AN/I, is where you submit your complaint. Discussion about this dispute seems to be taking place at both the article talk page as well as FTN, but I have yet to review either. El_C 19:26, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

You might want to take a look at my last comment on this thread, which provides evidence of jps engaging in a similar type of behaviour. This might be helpful if you decide to proceed with the issue further. ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 19:34, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

I see some familiar names. To be clear: most of those users were politely engaged with me in discussion and worked with me to improve the page. Others just behaved in the same way an blind reverted the work of weeks multiple times indiscriminately and vindictively. e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bob_Lazar&diff=940775066&oldid=940762191 <- typical "secondary" blind revert: among the edits they were removing the link UFO conspiracy theory from the page of a UFO conspiracy theorist just to blindly revert everything acritically! El_C thank you for your time by the way. If you have questions (the discussions are long and fragmented unfortunately) I would be glad to clear anything up. --Gtoffoletto (talk) 19:54, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

NEW: he is reverting covertly all of my other CLEARLY sourced contributions. This is insane cc. El_C. After I indicated that I would stop engaging in discussion and waved a white flag Wikipedia:Fringe_theories/Noticeboard#USS_Nimitz_UFO_incident he has promptly started STALKING all of my prior edits and REVERTING them (...). I am struggling to see good faith here. This should escalate somehow come on.

• https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_reported_UFO_sightings&type=revision&diff=940976805&oldid=940880246 I had placed TWO reputable sources so why remove it? The incident and videos were on the damn front page of the NYTIMES! Can't even include it in a list!? (I was about to write a page myself as the incidents have been widely covered...instead I'm here fighting yay!). I'm sure there are worst sourced cases in that sloppy list. Also: he didn't correctly revert (what a coincidence) so no notification for me and no discussion on the talk page. Naughty.
• https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Advanced_Aerospace_Threat_Identification_Program&action=history guess who was the last editor? He didn't have the courage to revert one link though lol.

Those are tiny edits so their absurdity and vindictiveness are clearly on display. Not to mention the sneaky manner in which it was done. The first is simply unjustifiable. And that's all for me. One week of work and discussion erased. Those were my last contributions standing. I hope he feels big and powerful now. --Gtoffoletto (talk) 21:53, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

@ජපස: please don't go out of your way to follow Gtoffoletto around! El_C 22:01, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Because you are already doing it yourself?@ජපස: Your last revert is for all to see. I posted TWO MAJOR sources in a list which is barely referenced and you just couldn't resist completely reverting it right? By the way you forgot to explain your revert so please do so Talk:List_of_reported_UFO_sightings thanks! --Gtoffoletto (talk) 22:12, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Guess who comes to the rescue with another revert? So hasty it even broke the page syntax. Fixed it for you User:LuckyLouie. You are welcome in the talk page though. Strange you didn't write there first since a discussion is CLEARLY taking place... was it such an urgent matter? --Gtoffoletto (talk) 22:28, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

When you are introducing fringe sources like [124] there is no consensus required to remove them. - LuckyLouie (talk) 22:33, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Gtoffoletto if other editors feel you are introducing fringe material, they are allowed to revert your edits. It doesn't automatically equates to hounding, but could be instead, simple stewardship. Anyway, it's hard to tell which it is since you are once again light on documentation. And once again, this is not the forum for this. I am archiving this discussion. Again, a well-documented request at one of the forums I list above is your next step, if you still intent to pursue a complaint. El_C 22:41, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Comments:

Edit history, including most recent addition, points to WP:NOTHERE behavior by removal of corrective action taken by institution and the accusation, and adding links to self-published content. Possible bias/COI, but they already violated 3RR. Mr. Vernon (talk) 19:44, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Comments:

This is not acceptable, you can't publish wrong/baseless information about a person. The only fact is he is terminated. The words "due to repeatedly sending emails unsubstantially attacking individuals" is manipulative and not factual. I warned many times since yesterday but Ylevental and Mr. Vernon continues to manipulate. You either have to remove all the controversial content or have to publish all aspects. Eylem Z Yildiz —Preceding undated comment added 20:10, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

It is sourced, per the news article that you have repeatedly removed from the article: I quote, "“This particular case, the continued emails directed at and advertised widely attacking people involved in the academic review, really undercuts our commitment to shared governance,” Sullivan said." --Mr. Vernon (talk) 20:23, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Check it out please, the references are still there. I removed the manipulative expression. You have to quote it whatever it is without changing, and whoever said without attributed somebody else. You can't present media coverage as a fact. It is not stated in the official dismissal letter in that way. --Eylem Z Yildiz —Preceding undated comment added 20:36, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Actually you did remove the news article link in during your edit warring. You removed it four times. Not the text, but the link to news coverage itself, which meets WP:SOURCES more than the person's blog or a petition site, both of which you've added in recent edits. That quote came from the university provost, not someone uninvolved with the investigation. Also, you are continuing in an edit war over this article. --Mr. Vernon (talk) 20:40, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

Actually finally the references are there and it seems like you are repeating it as they are not there to create an issue. You have an intent to attack me. You have an intent to manipulate the page in a particular way. I'm happy to keep the references. Also, the references that I put are not just a person's blog. They are signed letters. For instance CAIR Esq or President of the Turkish Math Society. They have the same credibility as President of the Michigan State University letter. I'm not in a war, it is your feeling since you are in a war. --Eylem Z Yildiz —Preceding undated comment added 21:05, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

To some extent I can appreciate Eylem Z Yildiz concerns that the article was putting undue weight in the lead sentence on very current/ongoing dispute and sacking of a faculty member by his employer. That said, Wikipedia is not a place to right great wrongs, nor to come to the rescue of a colleague by citing personal campaigning websites. I have given  firm advice to this editor, requiring them: A) to declare on their user page or the article's talk page any Conflict of Interest they have may with the subject; and B) Cease editing the article directly until they have made a declaration one way or the other, and (as an editor with a declared COI) to take concerns to its Talk Page and seek consensus or make an WP:EDITREQUEST for specific changes they would like to see. Further editing in this vein by Eylem Z Yildiz should result in their account being blocked from editing this article. Mr. Vernon has been requested (and has agreed) to make better use of edit summaries when engaged in content disputes like this as it might be deemed unfair to template another editor for the exact same offence one does oneself in the article. As I am a new admin, unfamiliar with the protocols of this noticeboard, I will leave closure of this matter to someone more experienced, and I authorise any administrator to revert any blocking action I might subsequently take if this dispute continues, (i.e. they feel my actions unjustified) as I shall soon be off-wiki for a few days, and may be unable to respond speedily.

Comments:
For the benefit of the majority who don't play chess, in chess notation, "!" indicates a good move, "!!" indicates a brilliant move, "?" indicates a poor move, "??" indicates a terrible move (or "blunder"). (See Chess annotation symbols for more info). It is not normal to give an obvious move or a checkmating move a "!"; it is assumed that any competent player will see these. Only difficult to see moves (e.g. sacrifices) normally get a "!", and "!!" should be given sparingly to moves of rare brilliance. If a position is already lost, it is not normal to assign a "?" to a move because there is literally nothing to lose and an ostensibly bad move may in fact be the best practical chance (hoping the opponent goes wrong). Anyway the point is that adding such a symbol to a move amounts to commentary, and as such needs to be cited from a reliable source if challenged. This editor has not provided any source apart from a vague reference to author Charles Hertan in an editsum, but has repeatedly edit warred, and shows a clear intention to continue this behaviour. The article is WP:INDISCRIMINATE and worthy of an Afd but that's another issue. Note also that the two accounts User:Salazik1901674 and User:Zik291901674 are likely socks of the IP. MaxBrowne2 (talk) 00:37, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

• Page protected @MaxBrowne2: The IP is edit warring and not taking advice but it's dangerous for one editor to revert an opponent several times. Please wait for other views in the future.

Oldstone James describes their reverts as "compromises" but nobody seem to be buying it. This editor has has previously been blocked for edit warring, and has given a very pointed warning to another editor for this specific point. This warning specifically invoking the threat of having the article locked, which looks like an attempt to game the system in their own favor. Grayfell (talk) 03:42, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

Interesting nomination this one, and I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to achieve with it. Your desired version is currently in the article, and it's pretty clear that I had no plans of changing it, as I had stated in the edsum of my latest edit pertinent to the issue ("last attempt before I give up"). Clearly, then, resolving the issue was not one of your motivations with this nomination. So what was it? Personal animosity? Attempt to deter attention from your own edit-warring? I don't know, and I won't attempt to guess, but WP:AGF here is certainly under question.

Furthermore, I'd invite you to take a look at the definition of what a revert is: as per WP:RV (similar definitions are hinted at on WP:EW), a reversion is an edit, or part of an edit, that completely reverses a prior edit, restoring at least part of an article to what it was before the prior edit. If we assume this definition, only 2 of my edits are reverts, and only one of them surpasses WP:1RR. This is actually only the second time (the first time was also on this page) that I've surpassed WP:1RR in 9 months, and the reason for that is that I clearly stated that it was my last attempt at an explanation, so I figured it wouldn't pose much of a problem.

Finally, I'd also advise you to take a look at WP:BRD#Cycle; the author argues that making compromise edits avoids "bogging down in discussion", and it has done wonders for me in the past year, where me and editors who didn't initially agree with my edits consistently managed to find a mutually satisfactory version without ever touching the talk page - this saved me loads of time and has generally been a very effective way of making progress in a dispute. Of course, overdoing it will result in tendentiousness, but I always stop at 1 or 2 compromise edits (as I have done here), and you're the first editor in 9 months who considers that problematic. ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 16:28, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

In your comments on Flyer 22's talk page you suggest that other people to stick to 1RR, despite that you have violated WP:3RR, which is a bright-line rule. I assure you, all of these other, far more experienced editors you're patronizing have read WP:BRD, etc. You were edit warring, and you violated WP:3RR, and assuming that other people's behavior must somehow be nefarious while your own is just "compromises" is not appropriate or conductive to collaboration. Saying this was a "last attempt" isn't good enough when you know full-well that this is controversial. Compromise happens on the talk page, which you clearly already know about. "One more edit war and then I'll give up" doesn't work, unless your goal is to play victim. You shouldn't violate that rule at all, and you know full-well that you shouldn't. This, and your talk page comments, suggest that you expect special standards because you believe you're right. That's not appropriate behavior for a controversial article.

Further, you really, really need to learn to be more succinct, and perhaps if you did, people would be more willing to read what you have to say. Grayfell (talk) 21:55, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

Nope, I haven't violated 3RR at all. In fact, you have the same number of reverts in the 24-hour-period in question as I do, which is 2. The difference, of course, is that my 2 reverts addressed different edits, and I have also proposed compromises after each of my reverts got re-reverted, in addition to starting a discussion on the talk page, while you have stubbornly restored exactly the same version without proper explanation (e.g. on a talk page). Once again, please see the definition of a "revert" at WP:RV.

I also didn't assume anything about other people's behaviours. I literally just counted the number of reverts for each user: I'm on 2; you're on 2; Flyer22 is on 3. All of your other impressions of my assumptions are figments of your own imagination.

Saying this was a "last attempt" isn't good enough Is cough edit-waring without saying anything cough good enough? Also, I'm pretty sure you know, if you had read the edsum in full, that "last attempt" referred to my last attempt at an explanation - not last attempt at an "edit-war", in which I wasn't engaged at all - so probably no need to reply to this remark in any more detail.

saying this was a "last attempt" isn't good enough Well, if you had read WP:BRD, as you so confidently claim you (and "all of these other, far more experienced editors", aka Flyer22) have, you'd know that compromises can also be made through editing, which from my experience has been much more efficient than needlessly "bogging down in discussion".

Lastly, me somehow not being succinct enough for your liking is not an excuse for you to practically ignore my attempts at building consensus and mischaracterise my points. But, if this was a genuine piece of advice, I will tell you that I took it on last time and am trying my best to be as concise as possible already. ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 01:24, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

• Oldstone James continues to demand that editors discuss before making large changes, then revert without participating in ongoing discussions:
  • [144] Mentioned that deleting content without consensus is "not the wisest editing strategy"
  • [145] Reverted my edit with the summary "Please, PLEASE don't remove such large chunks of the article without any consensus, much less edit-war these chunks out. This section is relevant because many geographical areas, such as sub-Saharan Africa, contain inhabitants of predominantly one race. If you don't agree, discuss the issue on the article - don't just edit-war your changes back in." Note that he has not joined the ongoing discussion.
  • [146] Whacked me with a wet trout: "Just after I warned you not to make massive changes to a contentious article in spite of disagreement from other editors, you proceed to make exactly the same massive changes that prompted me to issue this warning in the first place. Not good." –dlthewave ☎ 14:45, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

I just reverted a large unsourced addition by Oldstone James on the page in question. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 00:22, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

No, you reverted a restoration to the status quo. The edit that you edit-warred back into the article was first made by Dlthewave, who, unlike you, bothered to take the issue to the talk page and didn't reinstate their edits when they were partially reverted. I suggest you follow their example and start a discussion on the talk page instead of edit-warring without consensus. ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 00:37, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

Both here and on the talk page you have accused me of edit warring when I have made but one edit. Either retract your accusation or provide evidence in the form of difs. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 00:51, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

Edit-warring does not necessitate that more than one edit is made per user. You can only make one edit, and you can still edit-war, as you have done in this case. More precisely, you have reinstated an edit which had previously been reverted (twice), which constitutes edit-warring. ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 01:41, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

@El C: Woah that was quick. El C, I respect you as an admin, so I'm sure that you've found a valid reason for my block. In light of this, can you take a look at my unblock request on my talk page? What I'm struggling to understand is why reverting (especially reverting edits without consensus) without edit-warring is harmful. Am I reverting "too much"? Is reverting too many edits considered tendentious, regardless of whether the reverted edits are without consensus or whether I stop reverting as soon as an edit-war is about to break out? Thanks a lot, ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 19:13, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

@Oldstone James: reverting and edit warring are one and the same. El_C 19:15, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

So any revert is an edit-war? Does that mean that you are not encouraged to revert any edit, even if it is harmful and doesn't have consensus (not saying the edits I reverted were harmful - just posing this question as a hypothetical scenario)? ^{O̲L̲D̲S̲T̲O̲N̲E̲}_{J̅A̅M̅E̅S̅} 19:41, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

Oldstone James, if an edit is deemed harmful, then reverting it becomes a necessity. Those reverts are exempt from the rules governing normal reverting. El_C 23:14, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

So nothing that suggests criminality? The title is Murder of Tessa. The entire article is about a crime. And though no one has been convicted, this absolutely was a crime.

Comments:

User has been exclusively editing the biography in question; blocking all attempts (arising out of WP:BLPN#Amber Heard and Johnny Depp defamation case to iteratively edit the content in line with current events; and giving the horrid impression on their user talk page of being unprepared to use any methods of DR other than edit warring. Getting this in before a 3RR violation, but that does not necessarily mean that I think a block (partial or full) would be inappropriate in these circumstances. AGK ■ 19:11, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

I don't see a 3RR violation, but I do see edit warring by this and other users. I'm more inclined to fully protect the page. Frankly, neither including nor excluding the material seems all that bad (not BLP vio, but not all that earth shattering either). EvergreenFir (talk) 19:24, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

AGK, despite being a long-time WP editor, for some reason refuses to respect the fact that this extremely controversial addition under discussion is still indeed only under discussion at the BLP Noticeboard. No definitive consensus has been reached as of yet. I have today twice reverted them and asked them to discuss the issue in the appropriate forum. Instead of discussing this there and waiting for a consensus, they have now opened this ANI, because I apparently should not have reverted his controversial addition?TrueHeartSusie3 (talk) 19:25, 18 February 2020 (UTC)TrueHeartSusie3

• I think both TrueHeartSusie3 and AGK failed to follow BRD. It is tempting to add another revert to the fray when the other party seems to not be following BRD but that is edit warring to my mind. I believe AGK is in the wrong with the material, when we are actively trying to establish the wording for inclusion on WP:BLP/N. I suggest both users be warned. —DIYeditor (talk) 19:38, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

• Blocked – for a period of 48 hours. GlassBones, if you think there's no need to comply with your 1RR sanction you're mistaken. Bishonen | talk 21:45, 18 February 2020 (UTC).

Bishonen - It was my understanding that the 1RR sanction was for articles about post-1932 politics, not an article about a news source. GlassBones (talk) 21:50, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

The 1RR sanction is for post-1932 politics anywhere. Also, that article is under AP discretionary sanctions as can be seen on the article talk page. O3000 (talk) 22:02, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

That article falls squarely under post-1932 American politics. Can you really read any part of it and not see that it's a highly political "news source"? See also the AE template about it on the talkpage. Your own reverts were also notably political. Another time, please ask before you revert if you're in any doubt at all.

Comments:

• Reversion # 1 was February 3. The others were reverts to Editgram's attempts to restore their preferred version. This editor has not properly warned me, nor posted to any talk pages before now. Neither of us has violated WP:3RR. Grayfell (talk) 21:51, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
• Yes, reversion one doesn't count. The changes by Editgram should have been reverted and they have the onus to gain consensus. I see no 3RR violation for anyone. O3000 (talk) 21:59, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
• No violation Both editors should take this matter to the talk page and discuss the situation there—something neither of them have done. —C.Fred (talk) 22:03, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

• Yes sir, we've both begun a discussion on the talk page. Please also note that AzureCitizen just reverted the page back to Grayfell's original which looks like a workaround to 3RR, and Grayfell posted "You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions" and various other official-looking messages to my personal talk board. We'll update you as this progresses. Thank you.

@C.Fred:

Off-topic and not appropriate here. --Calton | Talk 15:26, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
I apologize if this is a little long. I just wanted you to have organized and thorough information on this issue. Introduction: Taken directly from the “Edit warring” page: (1) an edit war occurs when editors who disagree about the content of a page repeatedly override each other's contributions; and (2) it is perfectly possible to engage in an edit war without breaking the three-revert rule, or even coming close to doing so. Although Grayfell may not have broken 3RR, he has definitely engaged in edit warring. He disagrees about the content of the page and has repeatedly overridden my contributions. I have attempted to engage him on the talk page as advised by administrator, but again, it does not seem like he’s interested in finding consensus. (Please read the talk page, it will be obvious.) I have modified my edits several times and support them with sources to satisfy his alleged concerns, but nothing seems to satisfy him. He does not listen to reason. His motivations are not concerned with Wikipedia policy. His motivations are purely political. Proof of Grayfell’s Badfaith 1. Several of the initial reversions were made with the explanation “white washing.” Period. 2. Regardless of how many of his concerns I addressed, he refused consensus. Example: He didn’t want me to interpret primary sources and rely on secondary sources. I did, then suddenly my reliance on secondary sources was a problem. (See Talk page) 3. He uses Strawman arguments. Example: I proposed an edit that dropped “altercation,” an edit he didn’t like. His next comment was entirely based on how “altercation” invalidated my edit. Note the dates and times. 4. He uses double standards. Example: He thinks “punched Du in the face” is evocative, but “shot in the head” is not evocative. 5. He literally said, quote “The idea that having a "political motivation" somehow disqualifies me, or anyone else, from editing is misguided. We all have opinions, and we all have biases. It is pointless to pretend otherwise.” 6. He posted phony, official-looking warnings on my user Talk page, which is directly against advice on the edit-warring wiki page. “Avoid posting a generic warning template if you are actively involved in the edit war yourself.” 7. He said I violated the 3RR policy, quote “you have already surpassed WP:3RR.” This is logically impossible without an initial violation by him, since I can only revert/restore his reversions. 3 reversions = 3 restorations. It’s impossible to restore four times without four initial reversions. Wikipedia’s policy on Ideological bias As taken directly from the “Ideological bias on Wikipedia” page. “Questions about ideological bias on Wikipedia are reflected in academic analysis and public criticism of Wikipedia . . . in relation to whether or not its content is biased due to the political, religious, or other ideology of its volunteer Wikipedia editors and any effect it may have on the reliability of the online encyclopedia. Wikipedia has an internal policy which states that articles must be written from a neutral point of view, which means representing fairly, proportionately, and as far as possible, without editorial bias, all significant points of view that have been verifiably published by reliable sources on a topic.” Conclusion Until my final comment on the talk page, I stuck to content. But all of the above hinted to me that Grayfell was not interested in truth, or consensus. I stated and he confirmed that he is engaging in politics. Thus no edits are acceptable unless they correspond to his politics, which he is the judge of. As far as I can tell, not only does an editor not have this power, this sort of political editing violates both the Edit Warring and Ideological bias prohibitions in Wikipedia policy. If you require further evidence, please start from my comment on the talk page posted 11:52, 19 February 2020. It seems like a perfect microcosm of our entire conversation. But I think an overview of the entire interaction in the edit-history, Death of Latasha Harlins talk page, my personal talk page, and my prior attempt at administrator-led edit-warring/3RR dispute-resolution would lead you to the same conclusions.

Please let me know how to proceed.

1) You can take the content dispute where it belongs -- the article talk page -- not here.

2) You could actually discuss the CONTENT, instead of attempting to use this noticeboard as weapon as you did or attacking the the other editor as you are doing now. --Calton | Talk 15:26, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

The topic was being discussed, when the reverts begin. Tried to maintain the WP:status quo until the discussion is over and tried to guide him to the talk page and show him the rules, but was ignored. Coltsfan (talk) 18:23, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

A simple comment on the situation: Life of Colors said that Coltsfan was wrong to add the shooter's name because Wikipedia supposedly has a policy of not naming suspects until they are convicted. However, multiple pages about mass shootings, such as Sandy Hook elementary school shooting, 2017 Las Vegas shooting, and Orlando nightclub shooting, name the suspect, even though none were convicted (couldn't be convicted, since they died). I'm pretty sure that Life of Colors is in the wrong on that one. MrThunderbolt1000T (talk) 18:46, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
