Comments:
This anonymous user owns the pageRichemont. They have persistently reversed my edits over 10 times in the last 10 days, refusing collaboration of discussion. Instead insisting on long, silly text. Their edits can be interpreted to convey factual information from the reference, but ones not necessary or appropriate in the context. The user changes IP frequently and does not reliably engage in (talk). IPs include 71.212.81.46, 71.212.81.249, 71.212.83.44, 71.212.89.226, 71.212.92.205, 97.113.119.99, 71.212.76.136, 71.212.89.17. Finally hit 3RR in 24 hours today.

  • Note. The IP didn't violate 3RR. Two of the edits you listed above are consecutive and therefore count only as one revert. My suggestion is that you discuss more of the content issues with the IP. They appear willing to talk. It would be better to do it on the article talk page so others can join in if anyone wants to. I'm not taking any action now; nor am I closing this. I'm about to go off-wiki, so another admin may choose to do something.--Bbb23 (talk)03:12, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
I've been engaging in discussion since November 16th. Modern.Jewelry.Historian's statement that I'm "finally engaging in" talk is an outright lie.71.212.89.17 (talk)05:56, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

A response from the "accussed"

I'm sorry Modern.Jewelry.Historian is upset. Over the last 18 days, I've repeatedly engaged MJH on MJH's talk page, explaining what I have been doing and why. There are now two topics on MJH's talk page with multiple entries from me. See [talk:Modern.Jewelry.Historian#Please keep citation styles consistent within existing articles.2C please do not over link] and [talk:Modern.Jewelry.Historian#Your changes must be supported by the reference]. MJH's statement that I haven't initiated and engaged in collaborative discussion is obviously incorrect.

Modern.Jewelry.Historian has done original research ("synthesis"), which I've removed and explained to her about that on her talk page. In another instance, MJH keeps stating that the company wanted "A" when the cited reference clearly states "A,B,C and D". (the cited article literally includes two direct quotes from a company executive Y listing a number of specifically enumerated goals, yet MJH keeps erasing evidence of three of them and has never explained why.) I've even added those direct quotes to the relevant reference to support my "ABCD" edit, and MJH responded by erasing the quotes from the citation!

I'm sorry MJH feels upset. I've been helpful and explanatory and she continues to make the same unsupported or inaccurate edits over and over again - I have no idea why. (She's confused about how dynamic IP's work - I don't change my IP, my ISP changes it without my input pretty much every time I boot up my computer. I don't see how that is relevant.)71.212.89.17 (talk)03:38, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

It is true that after repeatedly undoing my edits, you have used one of your 8 (by my brief count) anonymous IP accounts to leave misleading comments regarding citation style and reference matching on my talk page. The indisputable fact is that a paid editor undid good faith edits on this page 12 times, citing "knucklehead" and "vandalism", and in this case violated 3RR. I believe that violation is the focus of an Edit Warring claim, and you are welcome to resume your spin doctoring on my talk page.--Modern.Jewelry.Historian (talk)14:09, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Since you seek to deflect your use of IP. I mention your ever shifting identity because it is obvious that you avoid having an account in order to execute commercial edits, and enable ad hominem attacks that could get you banned from WP. --Modern.Jewelry.Historian (talk)14:20, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

The IP has made a series of edits to several articles using sometimes uncivil edit summaries. He/she seems to be experienced despite having had no edits on this account before 2 December. He/she believes that it is POV - and hence contrary to WP policy - to make any statements at all in article leads about what people are "best known" for, even when this is clearly explained in the article and essentially uncontentious. The edits have focussed particularly onKenny Everett and his occasional co-starCleo Rocos. He/she has not engaged in any talk page discussion on these edits, despite requests to do so, except at their own user talk page withthis edit.

Big fat section repeatedly added on the claimed influences of Alger & Park on theinduction motor. Removed by three independent editors. Some discussion at talk, but the re-adding continues despite. Warnings blanked and the content immediately re-added. Newish editor (1500 edits since 2010), seems to be based on a misunderstanding of significance and sourcing, let alone 3RR.Andy Dingley (talk)00:31, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Note. I agree with your analysis, and it's a clear violation of 3RR. However, the last comment in Cblambert's last contribution (to the article talk page) stated, "So goodbye for now", which may mean that the editor has given up editing/reverting on the article, despite their disagreement with other editors. As I write this, the editor has also stated on their talk page: "Sorry. I have bowed out of the issue, through I disagree completely." Although both statements are very recent, blocks should not be punitive; therefore, at this point, I'm taking no action. If the editor resumes warring in the article, please update this report.--Bbb23 (talk)00:58, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
Cblambert has continued to edit the article but he has not restoredthe contentious claim about Philip Alger being 'Mr Induction Motor'. Others hadrequested third-party sourcing for this claim.

The user has attempted to add the "Soul" genre to this page before, but following a discussion on the talk-page, she agreed not to. However, the user has recently decided to start adding back, and I decided to revert her edits with a edit summary notice and a talk page discussion. However, she persisted and didn't provide any reliable sources for the change, and continued to POV-push on the issue. I decided to warn the user after she reverted my removal twice, and from there we have been involved in an edit war. —Jennie |19:49, 5 December 2012 (UTC)


Hiya...Soul was originally included and this supported by lots of neutral and independent sources. e.ghttp://www.last.fm/music/Misha+B/+tags,http://www.dvdlyrics.com/lyrics-m-misha_b.htm,http://hmv.com/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?sku=484410,http://www.qxmagazine.com/feature/the-queen-b/ url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UlWJxY_49Yhttp://www.flavourmag.co.uk/sneak-peak-shots-from-misha-bs-debut-single-home-run/http://sosogay.co.uk/2012/singles-of-the-week-16-july-2012/http://www.dailystar.co.uk/playlist/view/263170/X-Factor-star-Misha-in-B-line-to-top/%7Caccessdate=21http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gu0AYRj7mxAhttp://www.last.fm/music/Misha+B

Unfortunately this artist has only released 2 singles so far, but has covered several dozen other tracks on youtube (not including xfactor).

The has been no discussion just threats byJennie and possible misuse of her rollback rights. I do not see why her opinion is more correct than mine, least i supply verifiable evidence. The are two sides to a 'edit war' ,I would welcome a third opinion....20:20, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

The full discussion went onhere in which I explained why I reverted your edits, you needreliable sources to support your view; blogs, YouTube, etc. don't form part of this. Also, there was no explicit mention of the artist being of the soul genre, rather, mentions of songs sounding "soulful" etc. —Jennie |20:10, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Note. Jennie, your initial comment "from there we have been involved in an edit war" is absolutely correct. So, is your request that you both be blocked because there's really no excuse for either of you. (Zoe, please remember to sign your contributions here.)--Bbb23 (talk)20:16, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
Which of the above are blogs?? (the are many many expert blogs, that i have not included, that put her in that genre. Youtube can be a crediable resource.

Bbb23: No, I'm trying to find a resolution to the issue. I tried to discuss it with Zoe and point her in the right direction of policy, but she chose to ignore it and added it anyway, that is why I reverted.
Zoeblackmore': Zoe, YouTube is a video sharing website and doesn't verify what genre an artist is or form part of reliable musical journalism. —Jennie |20:31, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
Jenny you engaged in no discussion, you simply said that you were correct and threatened me with tags. Youtube is used by many reputable sources as a medium, from the BBC to SB.TV. In fact my list of sources are from August 2012, the have been many supporting articles, and filmed interviews, since then which i have not included....20:48, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
The discussion (I started yesterday) ishere, I only warned you today. YouTube is used a video-sharing site for both of those, not as reliable secondary source. —Jennie |20:52, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
another unbiased source stumble uponhttp://www.allgigs.co.uk/view/artist/71723/Misha_B.html ...22:40, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
allgigs.co.uk is a website for ticket sales, not for supplying information about artists' style. It's going to be difficult to find sources to support soul as a genre, considering 1 mixtape and 2 single releases (and that is why I advised you to bring this up after the album release). If Bryan was active in this genre, there would be a wide variety of secondary sources saying so, and what I am trying to say is, at the moment, there isn't. —Jennie |23:13, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
Although it's great that the two of you are now discussing the content dispute, it's really not necessary to do ithere. My suggestion is you keep it all on the article talk page.--Bbb23 (talk)23:17, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
Just a quick reply to Jenny. The are indeed a wide variety sources which i have listed above. Yes Currently the are no major first division music sources that define this artist genre, just the ones we have got, so maybe we ought to remove all her genres, if Soul is removed, as the others have even less reputed sources? ...23:30, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

I can vouch for the fact that the input of the fan game has been resolved thanks to Izno, butUser:ArealFatRabbit is constantly reverting a vital point regarding the fan game's plagiarism, denying its placement despite the credible sources. The reverts that occur immediately after my own, makes me suspect the user has a bot doing it for him. I have been waiting for a discussion, but the lack of reply as Izno suggests is a definite conflict of interest, one of the reasons being to promote the game for advertisement sake.

I agree with the above. Most recentlyUser:YvelinesFrance ignored/spurned opportunity to engage in consensus building on the Gangnam District talk page and reverted with POV laden edit comments. His/her own talk page is not as clean as it looks because numerous advisories and warnings have been removed.

(The DRN discussion in question was closed prematurely based on ill-conceived arguments and is OBE by other resourced material.) I'd say YvelinesFrance exhibits 6 or 7 of the 14 characteristics of aWP:TENDENTIOUS editor. With a relatively short and limited edit history[66] that has engendered numerous messages and warnings, I'd say s/he is getting off to a very bad start as a contributor.--S.

This is a joke, I have already discussed the issue on the talk page of the articleGangnam District numerous times and the issue has even gone to the dispute resolution noticeboard as seen here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard/Archive_52#Gangnam_District.Despite the user A1candidate's content being deemed unsuitable for the article as per the DRN, he continues to put it in incessantly. His friend Srich happens to be a military man himself, according to his user page, and hence is completely biased in this matter and his opinion should not be of much value (since the issue is about irrelevant information of the military being put in the article).I have talked to this user A1candidate numerous times and he is uninterested in talk and only in promoting the military in an article that has nothing to do with it, if anyone should be blocked from editing, it's him.YvelinesFrance (talk)16:44, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

Comments:
User keeps reverting multiple users on multiple issues as long as their edits do not conform to his expectations. He also regularly insults his opponents calling them any combination of "nationalist", "biased" and "warriors", asin this example. What concerns me the most is the constant edit-warring of his editing style which seems not affected by his frequent edit-warring blocks. Also of concern are the constant attacks against his opponents including the use of edit-summaries to insult them. ClearWP:BATTLE mentality.

Previous version reverted to:[87]


Comments: I have inserted comments on my editorial policy on my talk page, which MrOllie has seen, because he left a long message there. However, that did not keep him from continuing deleting my contributions. I reported above only on the page Reptiles, but I have had similar problems with him on several other pages, such asTiktaalik,Mesosaur,Mesosaurus,Polydactyly in early tetrapods, and others. I would like to emphasize that I am a professional scientist (paleontologist and systematist), and that I thought that I was doing Wikipedia a favor by contributing discussions of recent developments in the fields in which I have an expertise. See my talk page for more details. MrOllie does not seem to realize that I can judge what is justified or not, on such pages; after all, I am Chief Editor of the Comptes Rendus Palevol, Associate Specialty Editor of Frontiers in Genetics, and I serve on several other editorial boards (Zoologica Scripta, Journal of Evolutionary Biology, Contributions to Zoology, etc.). One of the papers for which I have added reference is indeed mine, but I think that its inclusion is fully justified; since its publication in Early View version on theHistorical Biology web site, it has been the most downloaded paper. The other papers that I have added to various pages (whether mine or not) are similarly relevant papers. See myhome page for more details. I was going to give up working for Wikipedia altogether when another user told me that I could ask you to intervene to stop this systematic destruction of my work. Note that in the example above, Skeptical Raptor also undid my work a couple of times, but since then, he seems to have given up (for good, I hope). And others have helped me restore my work, for which I thank them (Peter M. Brown and Medeis, for instance).

Finally, I am sorry for the technical errors that this report surely contains; I am relatively new at contributing to Wikipedia and my knowledge of html code is rather elementary. If need be, I hope that others can fix this.Michel Laurin (talk)22:35, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

  • No violation. There has been no violation of 3RR or of edit-warring by MrOllie. He has reverted you twice; other editors have also reverted you. The problem appears to be your insistence in adding material cited by your own publications. If you want to contribute to Wikipedia as a self-claimed expert, you must follow Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. My suggestion is you either first explain what you want to add to an article on the article talk page OR you add the material, but as soon as you are reverted, you proceed to the article talk page to discuss it perWP:BRD. Otherwise, you may have significant disputes on Wikipedia. You've made only 83 edits since first registering in April 2011. Take it slow. Ask questions. Don't insist.--Bbb23 (talk)23:16, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

Insistence? Dr. Laurinis an expert, and theMichel Laurin article provides adequate backing for this. More can easily be provided. He is reporting work by the top experts in his field of which, as it happens, he is one. Wikipedia is very fortunate to have an editor so familiar with current research.
I can understand that you do not find MrOllie guilty of edit warring. Edit warring generally takes place when editors disagree strongly about an issue, and that is not what is going on here. Rather, MrOllie seems motivated by an antipathy toward Michel Laurin that manifests itself in reversions of his contributions to at least five different articles as well as in the deletion of his namehere from the list ofRobert R. Reisz's students. Theonly justification he has offered in edit summaries is that Michel Laurin's contribution reflect a conflict of interest, but Laurin has cited only work contained in highly-regarded peer-reviewed journals; WP:COI does not prohibit such a citation "if it is relevant and conforms to the content policies."
If you are going to accuse him of failing to conform to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, you owe him, at minimum, a specification of the policy or guideline he has failed to conform to! And if you are powerless to address harassment that is not technically edit warring, say so!
Peter Brown (talk)00:30, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
MrOllie may be being disruptive here. Weneed editors of Michel Laurin's calibre, we don't need to have them driven away. If MrOllie's behaviour is not technically edit-warring, then this dispute can be addressed atWikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. --Anthonyhcole (talk)03:55, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Comments:
User:Middayexpress always edits from the rigidWP:NPOV position that: Somali people are not black and that Somali people are fundamentally 'Asian' or 'Arab' rather than 'black' or 'African'. And, to that effectUser:Middayexpress suppresses as much reference to other black people with regard to Somalis as possible - replacing it with material emphasising difference, separation or conflict between Somalis and other black, and/or African people. This can mean, for example literally hiding the flags of other African countries who have contributed to the African Union peacekeeping force in Somalia. (My edits to that effect on the PageWar in Somalia (2009–present) page were themselves hidden by use ofWP:REVDEL.[127].)

User:Middayexpress has consequently advocated the position that Somalis in the UK identify as 'Arab' - even thoughhis/her own sources claimed that only 1% of Somali-born census respondents identified as Arab - the other 99% identifying as either 'black African' or 'other black background'. My position is not as simplistic as 'Somalis are black' - but is rather that Somalis are African (with cultural links to Arabia, like very many African countries), and, just as do many Africans self-identify as 'black', so too there is documented evidence of some Somalis identifying as both 'black' and as 'African' as can be seen from my talk page citations. Furthermore, I make no claims about 'black' identity deriving from a specific genealogy or a specific location. I do not assert, as doesUser:Middayexpress the existence of a 'race' called 'black' to which an individual either does or doesn't belong. I regard, black as fluid, non-exclusive social identity that some people sometimes accept, confer or reject. I do acknowledge that there is also evidence of some Somalis sometimes rejecting a black or African, or even Somali identity, and claiming an 'Arab' or 'Asian' identity. But, this is no reason to remove evidence that points the other way. However, Middayexpress's edit warring, often calculated to evade theWP:3RR rule is all about avoiding consensus and rigidly sticking to the line, at all times, and in all circumstances that 'Somalis are not black' – removing, reverting or replacing anything that seems to suggest a more nuanced, consensus based approach.Ackees (talk)17:19, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

Predictably, the situation is not at all asUser:Ackees has made it out to be (for the facts on the content dispute, please see the discussionhere andhere). I'm also not an administrator with access to the RevDel tool, so I don't see how I could've "hidden" this user's (clearly visible[128]) edits on the war article alluded to above or any other page. This is precisely the kind of absurdity, opportunism and dishonesty I have to deal with. Likewise, none of the above sets of difs are three revert violations; some are even spaced days apart, as the time stamps show. On the other hand, Ackees did actually violate 3RR within just 2 hours on theSomalis in the United Kingdom article (c.f[129],[130],[131],[132]). I opted to give him the benefit of the doubt and not report him for it, as I was hoping actual discussion -- which I had to start -- would be fruitful. I just casually informed him of it in passing (c.f.[133]). Clearly, this was a mistake. It would appear that Ackees is also unaware that this board is not the venue to carry on content disputes, and that "when reporting a user here, your own behavior will also be scrutinized", as stated at the top of this page.Middayexpress (talk)18:23, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Note. I see no clearly sanctionable conduct in any of the articles and one category listed. I am NOT going to get into the bias dispute; that is rarely relevant in this forum. Of the pages listed, Somalis in the United Kingdom is the worst, a slow, fairly long-lasting edit-war between the two editors, the last edit occurring about 10 hours ago. Rageh is stale, no editing since November 30. Nadifa Mohamed, no editing since December 3. The category has no edit-warring; Midday nominated it for deletion. Black British is closest to the Somalis article, but not as bad. You both need to spend less time in these articles. I'll leave this open for a bit in case anyone wants to say anythingconstructive, or if another admin wants to comment. (As an aside, I see no rev/dels, and Midday is right - they couldn't do it if they wanted to.)--Bbb23 (talk)23:47, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
It seems there is a long-running dispute between Middayexpress and Ackees which is most evident atTalk:Somalis in the United Kingdom, where the charges and countercharges have an unpleasant tone. Admins don't have a mandate to pick who is right about this dispute, but we could issue sanctions for anyone who continues to revert without following the steps ofWP:Dispute resolution. The best way to approach this would be a centralizedWP:RFC where somebody could present all the different questions about whether Somalis identify as black, or should be considered black for purposes of these articles and categories. We could close with a warning to both parties that any further reverts on the articles listed above which are not in accordance with an RFC would lead to a block.EdJohnston (talk)01:50, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
I'm impressed that you read that talk page discussion (I started to and thenstopped). I'll take your word for the "unpleasant tone"; given the obvious fact that these two editors don't get along, it doesn't surprise me. I have no problem with your suggestion as to how to close the report.--Bbb23 (talk)02:07, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
I suggest leaving this report open for a while to see if either party wants to comment. There is a glimmer of a negotiation at the bottom ofTalk:Somalis in the United Kingdom, beginning with a comment by Ackees dated 17:54, 6 December 2012 (UTC). It does appear that Middayexpress has rejected the proposal, though.EdJohnston (talk)02:45, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
I personally agree with Ackees. omalis are NOT arabs. The majority dont speak fluent arabic, and the majority have features differing from arabs. The main thing they have in common i the religion, but thats about it. I say Middayexpres should be cautioned.15:08, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
I left a response on the article's talk page, though the issue is best explained byUser:Abdirisak's post there. I should also point out thatUser:Pass a Method above, who did not participate in the discussion, nonetheless reverted back to the other version[134]. I contacted him on his talk page for an explanation, a message which he later deleted[135]. Instead, he left a short note on the article's discussion page asserting that he "explained some specific objections in [this] 3rr thread", and that he "specifically oppos[es] removal of content about Somali self-description". The irony is that his revert actually removed the only reliably sourced general description of Somali self-identification.Middayexpress (talk)16:29, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
Result: Middayexpress and Ackees are both warned. They may be blocked if they continue reverting on the question whether Somalis should be considered black, unless anWP:RFC or other talk page consensus has first reached a conclusion on that question.EdJohnston (talk)03:07, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Note. The article talk page is a ridiculous mess, and neither editor is blameless. The number of warnings Skeptical posted on Nernst's talk page is absurd. You both are treating the article talk page like your own battleground. @Skeptical, don't make inappropriate comments; you were reverted byan admin another editor and still restored your comment. Nernst, don't move comments from the article talk page to Skeptical's talk page. I don't know what to do with either of you.

  • Okay guys, I'm making allowances because yNernst is new enough to be allowed some rope. Your disruption of this talk page has ended? The next one to mess around gets a 24 hour break. Is that clear and reasonable?SpartazHumbug!10:39, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

It's reasonable but not clear. To be honest I'd prefer us both to be blocked together with a polite suggestion of how we can each edit better. More than anything i'd be grateful an explanation here or on my talk page as to what I'm being accused of. I think i'm entitled to that following the threat of a further block.

I get blocked for reverting so leave a gap and then try to do things properly while my requests for help are ignored. I'm asked to present a clear logical argument but no one else feels the need to do the same (except WLU on BLP noticeboard). I then get accused of being disruptive. I answer a question and get screamed at for making personal attacks. I move talk comments on behaviour to the user pages and but get reported for 3RR and get threatened with a block, I move them back and they get deleted (WTF!?).

I don't mind following the letter of rules or their spirit but dislike having the ground shifted under my feet or people telling me i'm "forum shopping" without saying what that is or what I should have done instead. I've learnt to telegraph my intentions far ahead but still can't seem to make anyone happy. I have made important, lasting and useful edits on medical articles before and respond well to positive feedback and am not deliberately trying to be 'thick' but would be the first to admit that my intervention on Andrew Wakefield and related pages has been nothing short of disastrous.

I realise that the Wakefield article arouses strong feeling. It would be nice to have someone reassure or confirm whether I'm being treated like this because my edits really were shockingly bad or because I'm supporting an unpopular point of view.Nernst (talk)17:46, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

I reverted their first two edits and placed a level-one warning regarding the addition of unsourced or improperly cited material at their talk page, pointing out that the references provided did not support the added stuff, followed by a second- and third-level warning, as s(he) reverted my reversions twice. There was no communication from the user at all, neither at their talk page nor at mine. I was expecting a third reversion from the user, but it did not occur. Maybe s(he) is aware ofWP:3RR.

Additionally, if does not fit the concept of an 'edit' war, as all of the changes are more-or-less separate changes. --Izno (talk)03:03, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
    The fact that there is not discussion is part of why this is an edit war (seeWP:EDITWAR). I am not sure I understand what you mean that the changes are separate and therefore this is not an edit war. --Odie5533 (talk)03:25, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
    The changes are fairly unrelated, to be more precise. Also, see the comment on this very page which basically requires talk page discussion in an attempt to fix the issue by either of the parties. I would not call this a case of edit warring, due to both of those reasons. --Izno (talk)04:06, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Not blocked. Yes, "unrelated edits" count to 3RR, and there is no requirement to have a discussion.

  • I don't agree with your decision to decline. Without supplying any reason for deletion, they three times removed cited content, leaving the article with hanging refs and an obsolete infobox template. I engaged them on their talk page to give a reasonfor deletion as I assume it is not common for a user togive a reason for adding cited content. They ignored all of my requests. He undid my additions three times, to which I added it back twice, and then I came here to file a report. -s t a r c a r (talk)16:45, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

User is continually reverting the removal of a table, the inclusion of which has no consensus. He refuses to enter discussion, and thinks that consensus is required toremove the table, notinclude it. As per BRD, the bold inclusion of the table was reverted, with valid reason (not by me, although I have used a similar IP) and thus inclusion of the table now requires discussion. Not its removal. 131.251.254.19 and 2.221.217.56 are me. Whilst I have reverted 3 times, I have also attempted to discuss, something this other user has failed to do. He is also reverting the same thing on2013 Six Nations Championship, again without discussion. As far as I can see, my removal of the table is supported by BRD , which suggests that after the first removal of a bold addition, then its inclusion must be discussed (but admit I should not have repeatedly reverted). Instead, this user seems intent on ignoring discussion and just reverting the removal of the table with no consensus for its inclusion.2.221.217.56 (talk)14:22, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

User Demir removed my refs claiming other users had already agreed upon his version of the article, but the problem is there were no other users. He then continured to remove refs from both articles with his interpretation of the lead as an explanation. Then he added some links of google books and used them as a source, even though links don't mention Humo as being Bosniak. --17:44, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Now, even though I informed him he is reported, he made reverts on theHasan Brkić article, explaining those refs are "lies" (seeTalk:Avdo Humo)

--18:10, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

And again, he is edit warring at theBosnia and Herzegovina article ([190]) leaving an explanation for me "Stick to Croatia and Serbia. leave Bosnia alone. provided sources before you revert edits", even though I returned the source (CIA Worldfactbook) which was removed previously. --18:41, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Wustenfuchs has a long history ofSerb-ifying andCroat-ifyingBosniak people. He's changedMesa Selimovic (a Bosniak) to 'Serb'.Avdo Humo andOsman Karabegovic (both Bosnian Muslims, born in Bosnia]] to Serb as well. I would suggest looking through his history -- he's been in a few edit wars -- I, however, have only been in edit wars with him. He gives 1 or 2 refs (books written by Serbs) which say the Bosniak person is a Serb. Also, he ignores the fact that the references I provided do state that Avdo Humo was a Bosniak (Bosnian Muslim); like this onehttp://books.google.com/books?id=NB_TCBY-jooC&pg=PA204&dq=avdo+humo+bosniak&hl=en&sa=X&ei=InbDUI3SOcqpqgHq9YC4Cg&ved=0CDkQ6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=avdo%20humo%20bosniak&f=false and this onehttp://books.google.com/books?id=IX5pAAAAMAAJ&q=avdo+humo+bosniak&dq=avdo+humo+bosniak&hl=en&sa=X&ei=3HbDUJPxKYH7qAHznYCwBw&ved=0CEIQ6AEwBzge --DemirBajraktarevic (talk)17:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Isaković isn't a Serb, and neither book I provided was writen by a Serb. It's about how those people declared themselves. In Bosnia and Herzegovina there are far more nationalities, there aren't only Bosniaks you know. --18:00, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

I would prefer if the user would finally try to discuss issues on talk page instead of constantly trying to silence people he disagrees with by creating admin requests against them(this is the third one today), for my part as an gesture of good faith I can stop editing the main page for 48 hours, although I have already moved to talk page only hours ago.--Questionentity (talk)22:55, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Given theArbcom sanctions forsimilar, past behavior. Perhaps those sanctions should be expanded toList of scientists opposing the mainstream scientific assessment of global warming as well. --Ronz (talk)22:45, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

That discussion has been going on - or actually, going nowhere - for days. Ronz against several other editors, arguing over an issue (notability of the article) that after 7 AfDs, has probably been entirely hashed out (even though it still remains unresolved). Hatting a pointless discussion like that is good page management, and it has been used quite successfully to manage long pointless arguments on climate change pages...Ronz's insistence on keeping the discussion going isn't doing anyone any good, and tempers seem to be getting frayed. (I have been watching the discussion for several days and saw no reason to get involved, since I still can't, after all this time, decide which side of the perennial deletion discussion I actually find more convincing.) Ronz's decision to unhat part of the argument seemed like a bad idea, and WMC's undo of the unhat struck me as a good decision.

In short, WMC's decision to undo the revert of his undo...strikes me as good page management. (Note that WMC is also uninvolved in the discussion.)Guettarda (talk)23:10, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Warned. Neither editor's conduct on the talk page is positive. I've warned William to stop collapsing, uncollapsing, and making snide comments. I'm warning Ronz to be more collaborative and responsive to other editors' concerns and not to file reports like this one. Requesting an extension of the ban for what William did is clearly disproportionate to his conduct. In addition, I note that Ronz did his own version of refactoring by adding section headers in front of other editors' comments, thereby injecting his opinion as to what the editor intended.--Bbb23 (talk)00:00, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Ronz fails to give the complete context. There is a larger context here (seehere,here, andhere); regarding the current event the complete chronology is thus:

Ronz presumably complains that event #5 was followed by event #7, but the complete story is that Ronz has been tendentiously resisting every attempt to close a stale, moribund discussion, where his stonewalling is the principal reason it has not gone anywhere. William is perhaps a bit exasperated, but so are the rest of us. ~J. Johnson (JJ) (talk)00:39, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

I appreciate the detail, but I actually did see all of it in the history. I've warned Ronz. If you later believe he's violated my warning, then feel free to bring it to my (or another admin's) attention.--Bbb23 (talk)00:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
I was concerned that if the record here is not complete a misleading impression would be created. Also, it might be noted Ronz did not come with exactly clean hands. But your warnings seem to have checked the immediate problem, so this incident appears to be settled. ~J. Johnson (JJ) (talk)20:51, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: Warned upon 2nd and 3rd reverts[262][263]

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Having no past history with this page whatsoever, but failing to find any truth in the IP's edit-summary claims, I asked them to bring up the matter on the talk page instead of reverting me, both in an edit summary[264] and on their talk page[265]. Asked them to respond to my messages in my third-revert edit summary[266] and told them once again to take it to the talk page in my already-linked-to final warning.


Comments:

What this otherwise clear-cut case comes down to is IP addresses: The first three edits are from one IP ("184.49"), and the fourth is from another ("8.22"). However, taking into consideration the almost identical revisions and the highly similar edit summaries (compare the third revert from 184.49 with 8.22's sole revert), and considering that the first IPgeolocates toPhiladelphia International Airport and the secondgeolocates toStanford, CA, and thatthis is a time of year when many college students travel home, coupled with the fact that a long plane ride would explain why an otherwise hot-blooded editor would disappear for 11 hours, it does not seem to me at all unreasonable to assume that this is the same user - not even intentionally sockpuppeting, but simply continuing to edit-war from a new location. Because unless I'm seriously missing something, there's nothing in that section that could lead two independent editors to remove it as "contentious material." — Francophonie&Androphilie(Je vous invite à me parler)12:05, 11 December 2012 (UTC)

More conclusively, when leaving noticeboard notifications just now, it came to my attention that 8.22 was previously blocked for disruptive editing on this article, of a similar nature to these edits.Here, the IP claims to be Hoxby.

The anonymous editor's edit is meritless. His final edit includes alink to a fansite that shows that the "Danny Craig" who has diabetes is in fact a fictional character in a video game calledDead Island who just happens to have a similar name to actor Daniel Craig. There is no need to discuss this on the article's talk page. Further, several experienced senior editors have reverted the anonymous editor's edits.

  • The IP's edits lacked merit, but no one took the time to tell this person why their edits were being repeatedly reverted (not even in edit summaries). That kind of communication is important. I've added an explanatory message on the user's talk page. --Orlady (talk)18:26, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Thanks again for warning the user. However I disagree with your claim that "no one took the time to tell this person why their edits were being repeatedly reverted (not even in edit summaries)." Here is a partial list of edit summaries reverting the anonymous editor's work:
18:45, 9 December 2012‎ Spanglej (talk | contribs)‎ . . (39,480 bytes) (-124)‎ . .(pls source)
14:44, 10 December 2012‎ Spanglej (talk | contribs)‎ . . (39,411 bytes) (-124)‎ . .(still unsourced)
23:56, 10 December 2012‎ Blethering Scot (talk | contribs)‎ . . (39,411 bytes) (-124)‎ . . Reverted good faith edits by 70.178.129.65 (talk):A reliable source is required for statements of a BLP nature.
As you can see two editors did explain in their edit summaries that the claim required sourcing. Blethering Scot even informed the user that it had to be a "reliable source". It was only on the anonymous editor's fifth try did he bother to include a citation. This citation, of course, disproved his own edit. -Fanthrillers (talk)19:15, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
My concern is that a Wikipedia newbie (which I need to assume this user to be) cannot be expected to understand the meaning of an edit summary that says "pls source" (the verb "source" is not widely used outside Wikipedia) or refers to "statements of a BLP nature" -- it's not even obvious that they will have seen the edit summaries. In this instance, the revert-warring seems to have ceased, at least for now. No intervention is needed unless the user decides to resume the war... --Orlady (talk)19:54, 11 December 2012 (UTC)

Comments: User was warned previously on their talk page (but not reported) about breaking 3RR:[281]. And I'm confident one could find more than 4 diffs. I suspectthis "jerk" comment (Charles35's undoing of the last diff, I think) is directed to me.Biosthmors (talk)01:50, 11 December 2012 (UTC)


Okay Biosthmors... This debate has been going on forweeks, even months. Every day for the past 6 or 7 weeks, all of us have gone over 3 reverts, probably exceeding 10 or 15. None of my reverts are edit warring. I am simply engaging in bold revert discuss. Since our debate is so ongoing, and it isn't like we are talking about one sentence in the article, but instead the article as a whole (with 10,000+) words, we have been going through a lot of material and thusly doing a lot of reverts. I always give justifications for my edits on the talk page and usually give an edit summary. If I don't, it was an accident and/or I extensively wrote about it on the talk page.
I'm sorry for this. I thought we all had the understanding that since we have been working on this page 1-5 hours a day and and working withSO much material, that we were all allowed to go over 3 reverts. None of us are edit warring. We are being bold, reverting, and discussing. In fact, many of them have encouraged me to be bold.
I went and reverted my last revert. My bad. I didn't realize I was at 3. I'd appreciate it if you just told me I was at 3, Biosthmors. I don't think this was necessary.Charles35 (talk)02:01, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
I'm kind of new to wikipedia, and I've seen the rules change now more than a few times. I've been trying to keep up and adapt, but there's only so much I can do...Charles35 (talk)02:05, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
As you can see from the last diff Biosthmors provided, in the previous edit, Biosthmors reverted a good edit, and asked me to edit the change my edit and edit the article to "preserve" a sentence that I rightly removed. I didn't think it was my responsibility to do so, and I didn't think that I would be able to do so in accordance to the rules of that page, so I reverted it. Honestly I feel like I've been lured into this. I will see if I can preserve it as Biosthmors asked. I didn't think there were any requirements for wikipedia editors, but I don't want to be blocked, so I will go take a look at that.
(ec) I don't think Charles35 will revert again. I think a block would be punitive and not preventative. Please only warn him thateveryone is subject to 3RRat all times. (And perhaps to avoid editing the article for 24 hours to encourage discussion on talk?) Thank you.Biosthmors (talk)02:07, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
  • (edit conflict) Charles, first, you were clearly edit-warring. Second, you only self-reverted part of the material. Thus, your last series of edits constituted a revert even after the self-revert. Third, you weren't at 3; you were at 5before your last series of consecutive edits. Fourth, your edit summary was uncivil when you self-reverted. Your allegations about others do not help you. I am not going to go back weeks or months. I am generally interested in recent history, and there's certainly no evidence that Biosthmors was edit-warring recently. Here's the deal. If you want to avoid a block - and that's only because you're a relatively new user and you at least discuss things on the article talk page - then you must agree not to touch the article for seven days. You're more than welcome to continue discussing the article, but you can't edit it. Then, after the 7 days are up, be very careful how you edit the article.--Bbb23 (talk)02:13, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
I really do not understand. I would gladly self revert more, I didn't realize I didn't do enough. I'm sorry. I don't see how I was edit warring. I was reverting their reverts? I will happily not touch the article for seven days, but that means that they will bring it back to the state that it was in before this all started. Could you please ensure that that does not happen? All of the changes that we have worked very hard to make and that all of them have agreed to will go to waste.Charles35 (talk)02:23, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
The promise not to edit must be unconditional. I am not going to become involved in the content disputes; that's not my role. I see you made two more edits to the article after I warned you. One was another self-revert, which was good, but the other, although not a revert, you should not have made. Nonetheless, just signal your agreement, and we're done here.--Bbb23 (talk)02:26, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
Are you serious? Please tell what about my edits was "war" like? They were no different than the ones by everyone else (although, I didn't, and am not, saying that Biosthmors was edit warring, I am saying that none of us were), except for the fact that mine numbered 4. The edits that I made just now were an attempt to preserve the material like Biosthmors had asked that I do!? The first was a deletion, but then as you can see I added that material right back to a different section! I didn't see what you had written here. If I had, I wouldn't have made those edits! I don't want them to change the article back to the state it was in 2 months ago. That's all that I want. I'm happy not to touch as long as they don't revert it back to an October edition.Charles35 (talk)02:29, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
You don't get to dictate content. You have a very poor understanding of howWP:EW andWP:3RR work. I have no problem discussing that with youafter you agree to the terms. (I accept your explanation of the the last edits you made, thanks.)--Bbb23 (talk)02:37, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
Sure, whatever, do what you gotta do I guess. But don't do anything because I'm new. Taking a glance at the other sections here, I find it disappointing that you don't take the approximately 1000 edits that I have made in the last month and a half into account, the endless amount of time I've spent on that article, and the fact that we have all been reverting in that fashion for a very long time. The other users here are either IPs or blatant edit warring 39 post newbies. Nothing I did was warlike. I gave good summaries in each and every one of those edits, and I've made extremely thorough and meticulous comments on the talk page detailing every single edit I've ever made.Charles35 (talk)06:39, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
Optimistically, I'm going to interpret "Sure, whatever, do what you gotta do I guess" as an agreement to the terms, as begrudging and unclear as it is. Thus, any edit to the article within 7 days of your last edit will result in a block. I'm disappointed that you're not interested in gaining a better understanding of policy, but perhaps that's just a function of your possible annoyance with me. You could always approach another admin with whom you might feel more comfortable - just a thought.--Bbb23 (talk)00:13, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

(outdent - I don't know the actual command for it)

I don't think there's much I don't understand, and I don't want the fact that I'm "new" to be taken into account. I'm not one to play cards like those.

I'm annoyed by the fact that you don't evenlook into their behavior. Notice how my first 2 reversions were of WhatamIdoing's edits, and the second 2 were Biosthmors'. Notice also that Biosthmors reverted my edits, and asked me to "preserve" the text. I said no, I don't care to do so. It's not my responsibility to incorporate poorly sourced text into the article. And for that, (s)he reported me. Thanks a lot, Biosthmors! You were asking me to do something for you. I said no. So you report me? Biosthmors reverted myGOOD edit for no good reason. Biosthmors could have preserved it him/herself too... Why did it depend on me?

I'm also annoyed by the fact that you didn't even bother to look into thereasons for my reversions. The first 2 were of WhatamIdoing's edits. If it even matters, WhatamIdoing made6 reversions in 17 hours:


reversion #1 @ 00:17 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=527303260&oldid=527303126
reversion #2 @ 00:18 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=527303363&oldid=527303260

reversion #4 @ 16:55 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=527420038&oldid=527419648
reversion #5 @ 17:15 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=527422957&oldid=527422655
reversion #6 @ 17:17 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=527423130&oldid=527422957

Biosthmors' original comment said:" All 4 diffs removed the same sentence." - Well, they were reversions of reversions split evenly between Biosthmors/WhatamIdoing that were alsoadding the same sentence, which, for the record, isnot supported by the source (I was removing original research). If you want to go check the page now, the original research has since been removed! My edits were protecting wikipedia!

2 of my reversions were reverting her edits. And then when she reaches the limit, Biosthmors steps in. Biothmors' first reversion had the edit summary "rv, seems like good text" (the second was "preserve"). What? How is " seems like good text" a reason for anything? So I reverted his/her edits as well, which had the nothing-points "seems like good text" and "please preserve it". This is nothing new:

On December 4th, when Biosthmors warned me the first time (mentioned above) I broke 3RR then. This also happened to be the last time Biosthmors was involved at the page (which is pretty rare):

My reversions (4 in 3hrs, 14mins):

reversion #4 @ 18:38 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=526426726&oldid=526426657

reversion 1 @ 18:09 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=526422580&oldid=526415098

WhatamIdoing's reversions (3 in 3 mins):

reversion 3 @ 20:23 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=526265666&oldid=526265458
reversion 2 @ 20:21 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=526265458&oldid=526265271
reversion 1 @ 20:20 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=526265271&oldid=526214248

WhatamIdoing makes 3 rvs in 3 minutes, and then less than 24 hours later, Biosthmors shows up. So from December 5-9, Biosthmors doesn't participate, and is only there the days when I reach 3 reversions. And don't forget thatevery time Biosthmors is involved, it's for the purpose of reverting my edits. Biosthmors didn't make asingle edit that was unrelated to my reversions. On the 4th, the same as on the 10th, my first 2 were WhatamIdoing, and the second 2 were Biosthmors. The ones on the 4th were frivolous reverts as well. The material that I was trying to delete was BLATANTLY not in the source, which had been shown many times over. Yet Biosthmors gave odd reasons for the reversions, which were (1) "isn't obesity an accepted risk factor?" which isobviouslyoriginal research, a rule that (s)he is well aware of, and (2) "accurately reflects the quote's intended meaning, in my opinion" when the quote means NOTHING of the sort. The DRN section I linked you to on your talk page, Bbb23, was for 2 sub-issues. One was this alcohol problem, which fell through as soon as I made the section with no contest. Nobody even commented. After making the dispute, I went ahead and fixed the sourced content in the article without a single question.

Biosthmors hadn't edited the page since November 30th, which was, quite coincidentally, the last time I had reached 3 reverts. And in accordance with the pattern, every single one of Biosthmors' edits was related to my reverts. (S)he didn't make a single edit that was on a different issue. And again, between Nov 30 and Dec 4, Biosthmors didn't make any edits. On each of those days, there was a lot of conversation. But Biosthmors was not involved. So on the 30th, (s)he made another frivolous edit with no summary but "ce" (not sure what that means). Do you expect me to not revert it? Especially since we have gone over, multiple times, the alcohol thing and how the material Biosthmors/WhatamIdoing were trying to push was NOT in the source.

Biosthmors' edit @ 21:36 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=525797762&oldid=525796829

My reverts:

reversion 3 @ 14:26 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=525744871&oldid=525689426
reversion 2 @ 1:41 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=525663766&oldid=525663626
reversion 1 @ 1:39 -http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breast_cancer_awareness&diff=525663626&oldid=525632054

To sum it up, on Nov 30, Dec 4, and Dec 10, I reached 3 reversions. Biosthmors made a total of 8 edits during this 11 day period. 6 of those edits involved my reversions. Biosthmorsonly made edits on those days - the days when I reached 3 reversions. On 2 of those days, WhatamIdoing, the main editor "against" me in the dispute, also reached 3 reversions. Her and I have been reverting each other on the same sentences. On both of those days, after WhatamIdoing reached 3 reversions in one case and 6 in the other, Biosthmors' reversions concerned the same sentences that WhatamIdoing was editing. And Biosthmors' participation on the talk pages during that period was limited. (S)he made 15 total comments from nov 26-dec 10 (2 weeks). In that same 2 week period, I made 119 comments. And again, 75% of Biosthmors edits were involving my reverts.Charles35 (talk)06:22, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

I'm going to address your wall of text above, and then I'm going to close this discussion permanently; the only person who can reopen it is another admin. First - and I can't stress this enough - with the exception of exemptions to 3RR, the content issues are irrelevant. Second, reverting another editor's revert (which you think is improper, not sourced, whatever) constitutes a revert for you. Third, Biosthmors didn't edit-war, so anything on that is a non-issue.
Fourth, the only point that has some validity is WhatamIdoing's behavior. She was edit-warring. I noticed that when I first reviewed the report. To be honest, I was on the fence as to what to do about it. Most admins always scrutinize the editor who is reported and the editor who is reporting, in this instance, you and Biosthmors. I'm sure many admins, including me, also look at other editor conduct. There were two reasons I chose not to do anything about WhatamIdoing. The first is she was never warned. Although a very experienced editor, many editors can forget how many times they've reverted, which is why a warning is, if not required, strongly favored. The second is my plan was not to block anyone, including you, so if I was going to let you off the hook, so to speak, I didn't see how I could sanction WhatamIdoing. In hindsight, it might have at least merited a warning, but not necessarily the conditions I asked you to agree to. Charles, you need to move on and spend your time more constructively than continued and persistent protests. As I said on my talk page, I'm willing later to reconsider the length of the time you are not permitted to edit the article, but you're really making it very hard for me to be sympathetic. BTW, "ce" means copy edit.--Bbb23 (talk)23:56, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

This user has been constantly reverting my edits--I give the three most recent examples--without meaningful discussion or explanation. He asserts that I'm violating wiki policy, and I feel that I am not. I have asked him to clarify and specify, but to no avail--he does not elaborate. He has done similar things earlier this year, but I didn't know wiki well enough to seek arbitration. He has also been uncivil about his disagreement with me at times--something I have tried my utmost not to reciprocate. If I've committed any mistakes, I wish for those to be pointed out too.

William M. Connelley has not broken the 3RR rule, but has repeatedly reverted content with the sole reason being that he is reverting to "pre-DMZR" content. "DMZR" is me, so does this reason not seem overtly personal? There is nothing in Talk Discussions about William's M. Connelley's reverts before or after the reverts. Hopefully this kind of personal behavior, which disrupts and undermines the quality of the encyclopedia, is made to end.

Further, this is an exact repeat of William M. Connolley's behavior from last week. In the related article, Vitamin B12 deficiency, William M. Connolley repeatedly reverted content even though discussion between users was in progress. Note, William M. Connelley chose not to take any substantial part in the discussion. Lol, I was blocked for those events. But look culpability of William M. Connolley in connection with the same events:

Connelley's absence means nothing when your edits were correctly contested by other editors. Will would have nothing to add to the discussion, and did not have add anything to it because your arguments were already countered. Arguing that he should be blocked because he didn't participate in the discussions is not only rules-lawyering, it is a bad job of rules-lawyering.Ian.thomson (talk)19:53, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

Lol, actually I'm not trying to get William Connolley blocked. I'm just tryingto put a stop to the personal warring against my contrabutions. Further, will I be punished further if I dare to put in a request to check if Wlliam Connolley and Ian.Thomson are the same user using a sockpuppet? Their identical use of the term "tendentious editing" in the course of a few days is suspicious. See the talk page of admin BB223 regarding users William M. Connolley and Ronz.— Precedingunsigned comment added byDavid Martin Zeegen Roth (talkcontribs)20:29, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

If you honestly have anyreal evidence of sockpuppetry (and not just bad-faith accussations) and want to file a sockpuppet investigation report, go toWP:SPI and follow the directions there. Also, we have a page onWP:Tendentious editing, that describes your behavior rather aptly, which is why Will and I have both used the phrase. He was just following site policies, which is not personal. Your accusations of him being personal about it goes againstWP:Assume good faith, a cornerstone of this website. Your focus on him is personal. Quit projecting your grudge onto him, quit projecting your sockpuppetry onto other people, quit projecting your generalWP:Tendentious editing onto others.Ian.thomson (talk)20:38, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
They aren't the same person. I suggest you drop that line of argument.Dougweller (talk)21:52, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

Lol, l'm not so sure about that. Activity always at diametrically opposite times of the day, similar turns of speech, identical bias. Not only that, a strikingly similar desire to use unreliable source to support a fringe view opposite to mainstream scientific evidence. I think I could put together quite a strong case. Whether it is acted upon is a different question.

WMC's into rather mathematical and scientific topics, while I watch over more occult, spiritual, and pseudoscientific topic (and foods I like). He also presents a link to his facebook page, which, with that and the information on my profile, there's enough to verify that we're completely different individuals. The reason we're on at different times is that we live on opposite sides of the planet. You've presented no actual similar speech patterns either, beyond proper English. You've provided no actual examples of similar language (beyond the obvious proper English), or bias (other being one of the several editors to undo your edits). He (according to the Facebook page he links to himself) is a Green party atheist, while I'm a left-wing neo-orthodox protestant.
Occam's razor, nay, even basic sanity, would favor the possibility that we're different people over the idea that we're socks.Ian.thomson (talk)23:25, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

David Martin Zeegen Roth (talk)23:31, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

Which won't happen soon. The context of the accusations seems to be Ian.Thomson's initiation of an SPI which concluded with Roth's sockpuppet being blocked. Roth wasn't blocked for sock puppetry.Dougweller (talk)06:34, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Following a RfC on the use of flags atWT:MMA#RFC on WP:MMA's use of Flag Icons in relation to MOS:FLAG and despite being told by three editorshere,here andhere that his view of the close was wrong and a warning of WP:3RRhere and a more textual onehere JonnyBonesJones made his fourth revert in little over 8 hours.Mtking 10:46, 13 December 2012 (UTC)—Mtking10:46, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

However, I was not wrong. I was following the consensus and RfC. It states that flags cant be used UNLESS the competition is between countries. Well the UFC is a competition between countries. Therefore I feel I have not violated the 3RR rule because I was editing in favor of the RFC. "Consensus is that per MOS:FLAG, flags are inappropriate for inclusion in results tables unless the competition is established as taking place between fighters as a representative of a particular country."JonnyBonesJones (talk)10:50, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

That's not obvious vandalism. Being "right" doesn't exempt you from 3rr. Also, given the number of editors you have reverted, you should have gone to Talk, and possibly even requested athird opinion, instead of trying to enforce your style by yourself. --Nouniquenames11:06, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
It was going against the RfC, so it was actually. I did go to talk, with MtKing and others and tryed to explain the RfC to them. Also "Third opinions must be neutral." So I would have to find someone who isnt a deletionist or an MMA editor.JonnyBonesJones (talk)11:09, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

The guy has made seven reverts of the same point since December 1 (whether the Coptic language should be described as 'extinct'). He reverted again since the last warning. A block may be the only way to get him to seek consensus. No opinion on the underlying issue, which could be a matter of semantics. Is Latin extinct?

He has responded to your warning with an apology and an explanation. He has left in place the last revert by Taivo and is discussing the issue on the talk page.

I'm not sure that this is the appropriate place to handle this situation, considering the average time of most blocks and the pace of this dispute. However, I'm not really sure how to proceed with this. I've tried raising my concerns in edit summaries and I've explained my edits on the user talk page as well as on the article talk page but have gotten absolutely no response fromUser:Pionalmusic - not even so much as an edit summary. After placing the edit-warring warning on the user talk page and commenting on the article talk page, I waited over 24 hours but received no response fromUser:Pionalmusic. At that point, I then reverted it one more time with an edit summary directing attention to the talk page.User:Pionalmusic reverted that but did not engage on the talk page nor even include an edit summary.

Also, one of the edits is from an IP that I'm pretty sure is the same account, based on edit history. Because it's a new account and I have no reason to think otherwise, I'm assuming good faith and not accusingUser:Pionalmusic of sock puppetry but rather simply not logging in. Of course, obviously from the username, it appears as thoughUser:Pionalmusic also has a conflict of interest. --Irn (talk)17:21, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

  • Warned. I've taken the following steps:
  1. I've reverted the last edit by Pionalmusic and restored the sourced material. I don't usually do that, but given the unusual circumstances, I decided it was reasonable.
  2. I've posted a warning to Pionalmusic's talk page that he must not edit the article directly because of his conflict and his disruptive editing. If he wishes to make changes, he must propose them on the article talk page. I've asked him to comment here that he agrees to this condition, but, regardless, if he makes another controversial edit to the article, I will block him.
  3. I've deleted Pionalmusic's user page as promotional (it's a copy of the article).
I have no comment on the possible sock puppetry. Although the IP geolocates to Madrid, I don't see their edits and Pionalmusic's edits being similar; perhaps I'm missing something. Feel free to add to this report if Pionalmusic edits the article again, or leave a message on my talk page.--Bbb23 (talk)20:18, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

I have intitiated the resolve dispute and I have not reverted any edits after being warned, so I am not sure what is the point of this "reporting".

First of all, "You must notify any user you report.". I have not received a report. Second, I'd like to draw your attention tothis dare, in which bitcoin subreddit is rallied towards modifying the article just because. Third,more people are rallied when his edit isn't sticking. Fourth, reporter has a vested interest, being an Bitcoin activist. Five, we've had decently active discussion in the talk page re: whether Bitcoin should be included or not, and this was mentioned to him (on an edit comment) but that has led to more editing and no discussion from his part. Until Bitcoin is decided to be included, trying to add some Bitcoin exchange rates as "cited facts" is disingenuous and as relevant to the article as "sun is hot".

It is not true that there is a set format within wikipedia for setting the "for" argument before the "against" argument.

Example, #1:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campaign_finance_reform

Notice how in the "Campaign Finance Law" article, there is section titled "Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission." In this section, the opposing viewpoint is listed immediately after the summary of the ruling and BEFORE the section listing Senator McCain and Mitch McConnell's pro viewpoints.

Example #2:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_penalty

Notice how in the "Brady Bill" article, there is section titled "Movements towards humane execution," followed by a section titled "Abolitionism." Both of these viewpoints sections are opposing viewpoints and are listed BEFORE any pro viewpoint.

Example #3:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euthanasia

Notice how in the "Euthanasia" article, there is a section titled "Euthanasia Debate." The very first sentence in this section is the viewpoint of euthanasia OPPONENT Ezekiel Emanuel. THEN, the viewpoint of Pro-euthanasia activists is listed.

Clearly, there is not a set format within wikipedia for setting the "for" argument before the "against" argument as I have clearly proven.

There is, however, is a pattern of listing opposing viewpoints first and then the pro viewpoint as a counterargument. THAT is the logical flow for an argument.— Precedingunsigned comment added byKomputerzrkool (talkcontribs)21:26, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
