User:Srnec violated the rule of three reversions and this is not the first timethat he do it.--EeuHP (talk)11:43, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
Remarks: In defense ofSrnec , just checkthe history onPeter III of Aragón. I suspect that the IP88.21.38 is the same as the party reporting this incident who is bent on imposing his criteria. See also discussion page of the respective article on an attempt to reach a consensus. --Maragm (talk) 11:53, 30 May 2014 (UTC) pd. Perhaps a checkuser can confirm or disavow my suspicions. --Maragm (talk)12:13, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- You can suspect all that you wish, but I know that I'm not the IP. AndSrnec violated the rule by third time and it's time for him to be apperceived.--EeuHP (talk)12:07, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
I've semi-protected the article so that the IP can no longer disrupt the article before consensus is reached on the talk page.DrKiernan (talk)12:39, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- And with regard to the violation of the rule of three reversals?--EeuHP (talk)12:59, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- Semi-protection will prevent further disruption. Any further action would be punitive rather than preventative.DrKiernan (talk)13:14, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- Excuse me, but this is thethird time that this user violate the rule. Three violations and zero warning is a very bad example.--EeuHP (talk)13:30, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- Remarks The above user has been blocked several timesfor edit warring.--Maragm (talk)13:41, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- The reported user has a clean block log and has not technically breached the rule since there are no more than 3 reverts in each 24-hour period. The IP, however, has broken the rule.DrKiernan (talk)13:45, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, the rule say this but also sayAny appearance of gaming the system by reverting a fourth time just outside the 24-hour slot is likely to be treated as an edit-warring violation. Let's see his recent history.

- The time difference between 21:06 25 January and 04:58 27 January is obviously more than 24 hours. Besides which, Srnec undid his own revert anyway[7], so there is no violation. On the Petronilla example, as you were told when you reported it in February 2014, that matter is stale[8][9]. Besides which I see you reverting at 14:32, 20:53, 21:40,and 21:51 on 6 October 2013 and 13:38 on 7 October 2013: 5 reverts in 24 hours, immediately after you came off a block for edit-warring on Nicholas II. The matter is closed, move on.DrKiernan (talk)15:35, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- Any appearance of gaming the system by reverting a fourth time just outside the 24-hour slot is likely to be treated as an edit-warring violation. Three reversions in 24 hours (with the help of others users of his gang that replace him in the reversal task when he approached the limit) and other after the limit. When the offense is clear, it is not seen and expires. When the offense is interpretable, it is interpreted in his favor. The strong language is not necessary. This situation speaks for itself.

Note. Overlapping administrators. I was troubled by what appeared to me as an edit war by both users and was about to say that here. At the same time, another user (probable sock of the reported user) came along to support the probable master. Not quite prepared to block both accounts, I locked the article. MeanwhileFavonian blocked both accounts as sock puppets, a reasonable conclusion. I've since unlocked the article as no longer needed, which puts it back in PC 1 status.--Bbb23 (talk)21:07, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Comments:
User is holding firm to his preferred phrasing of "Macedonian (Greek Latin)" as the identification of Simona Halep's ethnicity, as opposed to how others have identified her as being "Aromanian". Even after I provided a source where it is clear that she self-identifies as Aromanian he still reverts back to his preferred identification. Additionally, he has been rather abusive on the article talk page, with statements such as "Be CALM and RESPECT the OTHERS!! You are not the Master of Europe and the wiki-romanians dont have the right to command the people's name in the ENGLISH language". And just to note: I havezero connection with the Romanian Wikipedia.Tabercil (talk)17:22, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
- Nevermind, situation has changed. I'd placed the warning here about his edits as I was the other party involved in the warring and wanted a fresh set of eyes to see what has occured. But since then the user has made additional edits elsewhere which were purely disruptive in an attempt to make his point (namely moving the articles onAromanians,Aromanian language,Greeks andRomanians). That makes it a different matter altogether.Tabercil (talk)18:05, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

It was actually 3 reverts from 2 different editors before this report. My "reverts" are being used as a way to block me from commenting on the issues with the page.

An SPI reverting and restoring exits of another SPI who is trying to weigh too heavily on what he thinks instead of what they say.

Riiighhht. A user account created a week ago with about ten edits, who knows about NPOV, Wikiquette, 3RR, and to go running to Wikipedia:Edit filter/False positives/Reports to get their sketchy edits restored. And oh yeah, named "Patriot Donbassa", which is mangled Polish. Whose talk page comments and edits appear to be intended to start fights between people.
It's an obvious sockpuppet created for the purposes of trolling.Volunteer Marek (talk)10:02, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- Patriot Donbassa (Патриот Донбасса) means 'Donbass Patriot' in Russian. Neither Polish nor mangled, my friend. One should take a closer look at Volunteer's edits accross Eastern Europe topics. He's constantly edit warring and being disruptive:[34],[35],[36]. How long can this circus go on?Patriot Donbassa (talk)10:11, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

- ...and not even bothering to deny it. And arguing about "old stuff".Volunteer Marek (talk)10:28, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
What Volunteer Marek said. It's clearly a case of a trolling sock. First, this report has no merit (3RR rule was not broken). I became aware of this when on the article I created (poverty in Poland) I saw a problematic edit summary[37] that clearly implies that the editor's sole reason for reverting was that he followed another editor with the intent to undo his edits (the followed editor was Volunteer Marek). I reverted that inconstructive edit, and repeated it twice more as Patriot Donbass did not provide any reasonable argument for restoring it (I agree with VM that the edit is problematic, as I explained on talk). His edits to that article and talk page seem to fit the description of VM as being disruptive and aiming at creating battleground atmosphere; his edits there are neither neutral or well sources (after running out of reverts, he added another baiting, non-neutral edit -[38]). Further indication that Patriot Donbass is not an innocent newbie can be gleamed from the fact that less than 25 edits and in about one week since creating his new account, this user knows how to file a proper 3RR report, is familiar with the template warning system to issuea {{uw-ew}} warning (in his 22nd edit ever), and shows further familiarity with Wikipedia policies ([39]) as well as (and that's a clincher here) indicates familiarity with my edit history at least as far back as Feb/March when I stood for adminship. I think this is enough to see that we are dealing with a disruptive account, a sock of a more experienced user, in all likelyhood a banned one (or one created to avoid getting the puppetmaster account banned). I'd suggest blocking this account, and if one needs to look for a specific bureacratic justification, please note that this sock is primarily active in topics related to Eastern Europe, thus falling withinWikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here10:30, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- My edits to the Ukrainian topic are all neutrally worded and explained at talk. Unlike Volunteer Marek's, that add loaded language and biased claims. Compare:[40],[41]. It's clear who's following NPOV and who's adding cheap agitprop. And as far asstalking is concerned, it's Marek, who's following my edits, such as the ones I made toNew Russia Party. Gubarev was a communist party member before founding the New Russia Party - what kind of a clown would seriously call him a 'far-right figure' anno 2014? It's stupid and I removed it, after a filter had prevented me from arguing the point at talk.Patriot Donbassa (talk)10:36, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- Your edits to Ukrainian topics are not relevant here; we are talking about you following Volunteer Marek topoverty in Poland article, edit warring there, and adding baiting, disruptive content to the article and its talk.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here10:49, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- (ec) SeeNational Bolshevism. Yes there's a faction of "Communist neo-Nazis" in Russia. And that's in the article. And it's well sourced. And you're removing well sourced info to push a POV. And you probably already know all this. But all that is beside the point.
- BTW, in regard to that edit filter thing preventing some of your edits - you don't happen to be using a proxy to edit are you? That's what could be causing you problems.Volunteer Marek (talk)10:52, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: The content I added toPoverty in Poland was not disruptive. It was and is adequately sourced. If Marek promises not to follow my edits to the Ukrainian topic like he did today[42], then I'll avoid articles related to Poland that he edits just to avoid angering him. But I stand by my words that Marek's edits to Ukrainian topics are practically all highly one-sided. An experienced user should really have at least a pretense of following NPOV.
- @VM: where is the source saying Progressive Socialist Party of Ukraine is 'national bolshevik' or 'far-right'? Riiight. There aren't any. at least in the respective article. Avoiding emotionally loaded labels in disputed topics is really elementary. And no, I'm not using proxies.Patriot Donbassa (talk)10:58, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- Btw, it's getting besides the point here, but yes, national Bolshevism does exist but it is exactly what it is called: National Bolshevism. It's not fascism. And it's not 'far-right' either. Calling everyone you disagree with a Nazi or a fascist or far-right is a cheap rhetorical trick.Patriot Donbassa (talk)11:01, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- "If Marek promises not to follow my edits to the Ukrainian topic like he did today, then I'll avoid articles related to Poland that he edits just to avoid angering him" - I don't think this admission of stalking needs further clarification. Wikipedia is not a place were editors are invited to operate using the attitude "if you leave my articles alone I will not disrupt your articles". If you have disputes with VM on some Ukrainian articles, discuss it there, DO NOT follow him to others just to revert him because you have a dispute with him somewhere else. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here11:21, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- I'm a newby and I made a mistake. A single mistake, as I got angry. How about asking VM politely not to follow dozens of his perceived enemies around Wikipedia, too? Did you see e.g. complaint by B01010100:It is somewhat hard not to focus on someone who keeps following you around reverting your edits while simply refusing to even read the sources or by Joe Bodacious:Within minutes he followed me to another article. Over the next few days, VM followed me to a variety of other articles and talk pages, initiating edit wars at two of them /.../ I believe that this may be an example of WP:HOUNDING. Or by Lokalkosmopolit:Just a few hours after my comment here, Volunteer Marek proceeded to revert my changes to an article he had never edited before. Tell me, Marek, is it your habit to perform 'revenge' edits against everyone who happens to disagree with you?.
What about that? Shall you discuss the issue on Gadu-Gadu?Patriot Donbassa (talk)11:32, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
Just for even-handedness let us include the other reverts:
--Toddy1 (talk)11:29, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- Agreed, no-one is blameless here. For the record, VM's two reverts against me on an article unrelated toPoverty in Poland:
I explained the problem with those reverts above in detail.Patriot Donbassa (talk)11:35, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
Another revert, this time atAlexander Prokhanov.
My previous ES explaining my changes:fixed lead - Zavtra is: stalinist, nationalist, antisemitic. in a word - right-wing is misleading. Republican Party is right-wing. PiS is right-wing. Are they close to Zavtra (toilet) paper? Nope
VM chose to revert blindly an obvious improvement.Patriot Donbassa (talk)11:41, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
(ec) The reference by Patriot Donbassa to "discussing on Gadu-Gadu" (a Polish IRC client) as well asthis edit summary (that whole comment is an obvious troll) are both thinly veiled references to stuff from long time ago and Wikipedia history. One references an ArbCase from something like 2007, the other one the fact that MyMoloboaccount and Piotrus have known each other on Wikipedia for a long time (it's from Goethe's "Sorcerer Apprentice"). So this Patriot Donbassa person is NOT JUST sockpuppeting, trolling and stalking, they actually WANT certain editors (like myself and Piotrus) to KNOW that they are a sockpuppet and that they're engaging inWP:HARASSMENT by making these thinly veiled references which are not immediately obvious to uinvolved editors.
His little "no-one's blameless here" schtick above is just another way of saying "sure, block my throwaway account I just created a few days ago, what do I care, just please block these people I don't like to". It's a cynical piece of dishonesty. I'm sure whatever differences MyMoloboaccount and I have about the articles in question we can work them out fine without their pouring of gasoline on the fire. Note that the issue was already being addressed anyway asthis discussion on my talk indicates (note the involvement of outside parties, including at least one admin)
Can someone please block this jerk already?Volunteer Marek (talk)11:53, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, the trolling is obvious to us. But for an uninvolved admin, it would require at least a few minutes of investigation. Not something that is likely to happen. I recommend asking for a block at AE or ANI citing the above policies and rationale. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here12:52, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
Page protectedCallanecc (talk •contribs •logs)11:47, 1 June 2014 (UTC)- User:Callanecc: Would you mind rethinking this? This is not a case of an edit war between two parties who are not talking to one another and need to be forced to talk; it's the case of a trolling sock with <50 edits disrupting an article. Me and Volunteer Marek have between us something like 300,000 edits, fifteen years of Wikipedia editing experience, and thousands of articles created, many of them on the topics of Polish economy. In other words, when we call an editor a trolling sock, which I, for once, don't do often then every two or three years, there's a chance we may know what we are talking about. Would you do us the courtesy or looking at our arguments, presented above, a bit more closely? This article doesn't need protection, it needs a single disruptive troll who started edit warring there not to improve it but to harass another editor banned from it (if not blocked from this project entirely). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here12:52, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- I'm also not happy with the result, but protecting a page in case of a content dispute for settling the issue is common practice. I would appreciate if Callaneck took a look at all those diffs concerningVolunteer Marek (talk ·contribs ·deleted contribs ·logs ·filter log ·block user ·block log) user conduct. At least 3 users have recently claimed Marek was harassing them, I presented diffs of VM revenge edit warring against me on a number of articles today. I have justified my edits in the Ukrainian/Russian topics, see:Talk:New_Russia_Party,Talk:Alexander Prokhanov. Marek just reverts his perceived enemies until you're blue in the face. It's him trolling, not me! Just read my arguments at those 2 talk pages! I'm not the only one complaining about his daily misconduct.Donbass Patriot Man (talk)13:07, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- One of those three accounts you are saying had concerns about VM editing has been indef'ed (Lokalkosmopolit (talk ·contribs)), so it appears VM was quite right in his view of them. 95% of contribution of another one is (this year at least) limited to discussion space and AN(I), a good sign of another troublemaker. Not the best character witnesses you could call upon... --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here13:16, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, I noticed that Local was banned for comments concerning Islam. VM and Local however had disputes concerning the Ukraine/Russia matter, so VM was hardly correct in 'prophesying' Local's problems. The fact is: VM is the real troublemaker in Eastern European topics, Ukraine/Russia in particular and should be banned from editing this topic. And drop please those edit count things, shall you? Editcountitis can be fatal. No-one has the right to treat constructive users like garbage just because they edit WP less often.Donbass Patriot Man (talk)13:21, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- Patriot Donbassa - you probably do not know this, but making personal battles out of Wikipedia discussions goes directly against Wikipedia policies and goals. Unless you have specific evidence that Marek has "enemies", you should not be making such statements. please readWP:NOTBATTLEGROUND.--Toddy1 (talk)13:24, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- I provided 3 diffs from 3 different users (I admit that I don't know them personally of course!) that had recently demonstrably (diffs available!) complained of harassment by a user, whose today's conduct I also characterized as harassing me and disrupting totally constructive work I was doing in Ukraine/Russia-related articles. Diffs are there. Explanations are here and at talk pages. How is that not 'evidence'? What else is needed?Donbass Patriot Man (talk)13:31, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- If you search through any long-standing and very active editor's history you can easily find complaints about him/her. This is especially true if you accept at face-value complaints from editors who were later blocked as a result of their conduct. My perception is that Patriot Donbassa is clutching at straws.--Toddy1 (talk)13:42, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- All right, let us concentrate on today and leave the older complaints aside, as I have neither the time nor desire to dig myself into all those details. What VM was doing today can be seen here ([43]) and here[44]. He reached the first of those by following my edits (no previous edits by him to this article). He initiated an edit war against totally legitimate improvements in terms of BLP, NPOV and encyclopedic style. I explained my views ingreat detail. VM was unable to offer any explanation for his revert warring, any substantiated objection to my edits. And now he claims I should be banned ASAP! Also, his lastedit (revert of Lokalkosmopolit's months old edit) is similarly 'illiterate' from the political science/NPOV perspective. I'm willing to explain this really minor but telling thing in detail, but what's the point? None of you wants to get your hands tied by reprimanding a user whose block log looks like it does but who has lots of powerful allies on-Wiki.Donbass Patriot Man (talk)13:53, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- This edit that Patriot Donbassa referred to above certainly was not a legitimate edit. The information was an accurate reflection of what the source said, and Patriot Donbassa changed it to say something quite different.--Toddy1 (talk)15:35, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

- Didn't mean to start edit warring, & the reverted edits were before the recent ones where more constructive edits have been made by both Walter and I. Sources have been added and comments have been left onSteven Beitashour's talk page.--Bowser2500 (talk)02:05, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
- So, how exactly areboth not edit warring, Walter? --Spike Wilbury (talk)12:23, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
- Perhaps when asking for information from another editor, you could actually{{ping}} that editor, use feedback, or inform them of the question in some other way.
- I was edit warring, but did not go past three reverts. My reverts were all done withing editing guidelines. When I realized that I might break 3RR, I started added templates to gain consensus from a larger community: no reverting there, which were removed, which is clearly disruptive editing. I started the discussions to attempt to resolve. I sought input from the football project to seek greater discussion.Walter Görlitz (talk)21:50, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- Another instance where an editor reverts five times, clearly breaking 3RR and it's declined because some bureaucrat decides some question is more important than editing guidelines.Walter Görlitz (talk)21:51, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- I assumed you would keep an eye on your own report and not have to be pinged to go back and answer a question. And yes, getting questions answered is often pertinent before just handing out blocks. I would have declined it anyway, because you were both edit warring no matter how you paint it. Better to protect the page and allow for discussion, which can't occur at all if both parties are blocked. I'm not sure what you wish to accomplish by calling me names. --Spike Wilbury (talk)22:08, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

EWing User is anWP:SPA set toWP:RGW.Ian.thomson (talk)20:31, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- (Non-administrator comment)WP:RGW andWP:SPA, while relevant essays, are not policy. I acknowledge that the user edit warred and that's what this discussion is primarily about. I have left a notice on their talk stating for themselves to self revert, at the advice ofWP:3RR, in a move to hopefully have the reviewing admin become more lenient on them.Tutelary (talk)20:39, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- I will refrain from editing on misandry or related topics in the nearby future. (Snuffie18 (talk)20:45, 1 June 2014 (UTC))
- @Snuffie18: It's not so much that you're editing them that's the problem. The reason of this noticeboard is foredit warring, and breaking of the bright line ofthree revert rule, which states that an editor should perform no more than three reverts on an article, no matter if they were different content, per day. Why I noticed on your talk page for you to self revert, is that self reverting, even though you're already on the noticeboard, demonstrates that you acknowledged that you broke the rule, and are hoping for leniency from the reviewing admin as it shows that you understand what you did wrong, and won't do it again. It doesn't guarantee a non-block, but it will be acknowledged and put into the equation on whether this behavior merits a block. As well,being a single purpose account doesnot mean you're not allowed to edit those topics. In fact, as long as you don't edit war, performNeutral point of view contributions, and act with civility, among abiding by Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to edit those topics.Tutelary (talk)20:52, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
In my opinion politics should be kept as far away from information and facts as possible. That's what led to the frustration with the misandry page in the first place, because I felt there it was pushed away from npov by two users. And that's why I won't edit on it for at least a while, nor on anyhting related. As for the 3 revert rule, I believe that I didn't make more than 3 reverts within 24 hours. (Snuffie18 (talk)21:15, 1 June 2014 (UTC))
Note. The article has been fully protected four a month byMike V.Snuffie18, I'm not going to block you, but I srongly urge you to readWP:3RR carefully. You in fact made four reverts in 24 hours as revert is defined in the policy. Your first edit at 7:47 UTC is a revert. The other three are obvious.--Bbb23 (talk)22:42, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

Constant edit warring on the page. The user was warned on their talk page about WP:3RR and are fully familiar with it, since they posted a 3RR warning onUser_talk:Sfs90#Union.2C_Progress_and_Democracy_2.

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: Not given, since it's not a 3RR yet and is unlikely to become one, because the same person seems to be reverting from different IPs, so no single IP is likely to violate 3RR. I, however, have reverted the IPs twice already, and will soon be in violation of 3RR if I continue reverting.
Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: None, since I don't understand how it is a BLP issue, and the AfD template was malformed, without any deletion rationale. Also, I have a CoI with Suburban Express, so I would rather not engage directly with this person and let others deal with this.

Stlrbrt is engaged in an edit war atRightscorp, Inc. and continues to remove sourced material from the article, even after a notice on histalk page fromkelapstick. He claims in his edit summaries to be removing vandalism. The editor with which he has primarily been engaged isFoxbarking, who started a discussion atWikipedia:Requests for comment/Request board#Rightscorp editor continuously removing good faith comments on criticism and labeling good faith efforts as vandalism. I got involved because of that post; I reviewed the article and cleaned up the citations, removed some language that wasn't supported by the sources, and added additional sourced material. My edit was reverted with the edit summary "removing vandalism" (diff 1). Several of the edit summaries reverting Stlrbrt's reversions have specifically stated that the edit he reverted was not vandalism. He doesn't seem to be getting the message.—D'Ranged 1 VTalk06:43, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
Blocked – for a period ofone week. It's clear that Stlrbrt has aWP:COI and is using Wikipedia to promote and to protect the company with whom he is probably affiliated. In addition to his own reverts, he is using IP addresses to make the same reverts, all of which geolocate to Santa Monica, California, where the corporation is located. He has also created at least one article that is about an attorney who is involved with the company. I have also semi-protected the article for one week because of the IP edits.--Bbb23 (talk)07:18, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you. Until you included "with whom he is probably affiliated" I hadn't thought of a connection. The name of the company's CTO/COO is Robert Steele; that's a lot like Stlrbrt. Coincidence?—D'Ranged 1 VTalk08:45, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

Comments:
The user has blanked several basic facts about this building complex under the guise ofWikipedia:Verifiability. Really basic things: the geographic location of the structure, the description of the building complex as "large", and other content which is not "likely to be challenged".
I reverted and pointed out this view in my edit summary. The user then blanked half the page again and stated that HE was challenging the content. At this point I came to believe he was not acting in good faith but was simply being spiteful, because the content to which he objected is very ordinary, general statements about the building complex like "it is beside the Cogswell Interchange" which nobody else is likely to ever challenge.
I reverted again, but found references for most of the content. However, in reverting it also restored some things like the word "large", which I guess I didn't reference because it's really not necessary. For an issue like this, anyone could look on Google Maps and see the basic physical form of the structure. It dominates downtown Halifax. And besides, the term "large" is subjective. At this,User:Epeefleche placed a warning template on my talk page admonishing me for adding unsourced content and warning that I would be blocked for such action. I don't think this is the intended use of the warning template. If I post on his talk page, he immediately deletes my messages.
The user is usingWikipedia:Verifiability as grounds for being disruptive as means to spite me for contesting his initial edit.Citobun (talk)21:40, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria. There is no violation. Furthermore, Epeefleche is within his rights and WIkipedia policy to request references: it is not being "spiteful", nor is removing uncited material disruptive. Please use the article talkpage to work this out (which you have not done so far), and please assume good faith. He has previously explained that removal of a notice from one's own talkpage is considered evidence of reading it: re-adding it is not necessary.Acroterion(talk)21:55, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

- There is only 1 revert here, the second one. The first diff is not a revert at all. The user reporting me has a habit of running around undoing all my edits, often without any explanation[114], or using false claims that I am banned or a sock[115][116]. This last tactic seems to be applied to other editors who disagree with him[117][118][119] - needless to say, none of the editors he has reverted alleging they are socks are blocked socks.

A couple of times, the editor did start discussing these issues (either on the article's talk page or more often on mine), but in the case ofHeritage (Opeth album), the editor went ahead with their preferred edits despite not waiting enough time for other editors to weigh in.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:Talk:Heritage (Opeth album)#Genres (lasted about a day)
Comments:
I tried to help the editor learn about Wikipedia policy. Mainly, usingreliable sources perWP:V. I provided links to useful pages (WP:MOSALBUM,WP:ALBUM/SOURCES,WP:BRD,WP:CONSENSUS, etc), but instead of reading them, the editor continued to argue with me on my talk page, and continued to edit war. I tried being patient, Iassumed good faith (this user clearly isn't a vandal), I tried to explain to this editor thatWP:V is a very important policy on Wikipedia, but they constantly pushed their own opinions as fact:
"Listen, just listen and try and understand what I am saying and my point of view as a massive fan"; "unsourced or sourced I don't give a shit"; "Most of Wikipedia is unsourced" (as justification for adding more unsourced information); "anyone who knows Opeth knows that all of there albums are labelled prog rock"; "there are exceptions to those rules [on Wikipedia] and this [adding unsourced genres] should be one of them".
This editor is a classicWP:GENREWARRIOR (essay, I know, used just as a convenient description), who thinks they are the leading authority on whatever it is they are editing, and how could another editorpossibly disagree with them? Thing is, occasionally the editor makes some good points and/or good edits, but they don't wait long enough to allow discussion to change consensus, or they make a dozen or more edits across multiple articles, and it's hard to keep up with the few good edits among the large number of undiscussed/unsourced changes or removal of sourced info or whatever. Even earlier today, I thought the user was going to start working within WP policy, but instead they went and made a bunch more of those poor edits across another set of articles. At this point I realised that I was being pulled into the same edit war spiral, so I decided to stop and come here instead. And just to show that I'm not the only editor who has had issues with this editor's work:[142][143][144][145][146][147].
Anyway, sorry for the long write-up, but I wanted to make sure I had provided enough information. I'm hoping a temporary block will help this user slow down, and not be so impatient to get their edits made, and give them time to read important pages likeWP:V. Maybe it won't, and we'll be back here again soon, but it's worth a try.MrMoustacheMM (talk)05:17, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
I already explained to him that, when he said I had issues with previous editors it wasn't true 68 I removed a template and apologised after, 70 the user never disagreed with me and we are currently sorting it out via the albums talk page, 71 wasn't a disagreement he was giving me advice which I listened to, 72 me and bretonbrequet spent hours sorting out 3 major discographies, and 73 was me just trying to add a referenced genre.I am not a genre warrior or whatever he is branding me as up until the last couple of days I haven't even edited genres on Wikipedia.On the meshuggah pages I removed extreme metal because it isn't a genre as I spoke to him on his talk page which he gave me a 4 word answer before telling me to stop bothering him and on the opeth pages some pages have unsourced genres on there which he seems fine about but others he doesn't. He has tried to quote me and tried to make me look bad when my intentions were nothing but good. I never pushed my own opinion as fact if you look on any opeth related site you will see there albums are labelled as progressive rock calling some of the albums progressive rock and not others is misleading to readers.Lukejordan02 (talk)08:02, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
"Listen, just listen and try and understand what I am saying and my point of view as a massive fan"; "unsourced or sourced I don't give a shit"; "Most of Wikipedia is unsourced" (as justification for adding more unsourced information); "anyone who knows Opeth knows that all of there albums are labelled prog rock"; "there are exceptions to those rules [on Wikipedia] and this [adding unsourced genres] should be one of them".
Regarding this I never meant it that it is ok to add unsourced info I know how important referencing your work is I was trying to break the conversation into bits when I said that I never said adding unsourced info should be an exception to the rules I meant in cases where it is quiet obvious through listening to what it is.This user seems happy to have certain pages labelled progressive rock but not others when they are all of the same genre plus he is happy to have heritage to be listed as progressive metal even though the so called reference backing it up isn't referring to the album but just a song on the album which I mentioned to him twice on different occasions to no reply.Lukejordan02 (talk)08:12, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
The comment above and a ton more unfortunately is referring to all the meshuggah pages which I changed them all free removing extreme metal as a genre as it is not a genre. I am here trying to cooperate because blocking me isn't going to solve the problem as the problems with these pages will remain and I am a useful editor as I have removed multiple vandalism from WWE pages this past week and always try to update with reliable sources.Lukejordan02 (talk)08:26, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
Note. What sticks out like a very sore thumb when looking at the revision history of the listed pages is that both the filer and the reported user are edit warring. Maybe if both users stop editing the articles things might get better, but at this point the only action I would take is to block them both. I'm not going to sort out who's "worse" when both have mishandled the content disputes.--Bbb23 (talk)15:47, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
- In my defense, I'm not removing sourced material, I'm not adding unsourced material (ie I'm followingWP:V), and when I realised I was starting to get involved in constant edit warring, that's when I stopped and came here. I've tried going through the usualWP:BRD procedure with the other editor, but the other editor is the one who refuses to participate in it. Anyway, I'm already leaving the contested articles alone until some sort of resolution comes from here, but would it be better to move this to the mainWP:ANI and go from there?MrMoustacheMM (talk)16:28, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
- I think this is bound forWP:ANI unfortunately. The last time this user was reported here it wasn't acted on either, and what you've outlined above is only the tip of the iceberg. Lukejordan02's editing style is to make (usually massive) changes to discographies, immediately revert back if anyone reverts him, tell people they're wrong, and delete any warnings/discussion from his Talk page. I've spent about 20 minutes looking through his edit history, and he's edit warred with at least a dozen unique editors across many discographies. The only time hedoesn't get in an edit war is if no one notices his edits. --Spike Wilbury (talk)16:34, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

No violation.WP:3RR has not been breached. In fact, Goethean has reverted only twice in a 24-hour window.

I have been reverted 4 times. I give my point that there are several reliable scholarly reference agreeing on one interpretation and the other interpretation is minor so does not deserve mention. I get reverted unconditionally without even an edit summary two times. In discussion also I don't get direct replies except that my request is silly and I haven't read or such comments which I have ignored. Should there be not direct discussion on the content? I have not forced my content but there is no effective discussion there. It effectively feels like I should abandon my line of thought. I know going by the letter it is notWP:3RR but even if I revert now it will not be so! But I don't intend to revert, I do want a discussion!

Tell me at least one example, at least ONE example when I revert the valueable edit in theAquiline nose section. I was the person who was attacked. There is a mass-attack of multiple accounts all aimed on me. Give me one example of edit war performed by me in this case, of course excluding the IP addresses who were performing vandalism and I restored the article.Yatzhek (talk)17:17, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- It was the simplest solution given so many reverts. Since the lock, I have warned Yatzhek for their spurious accusations, andAcroterion has warned the user about edit warring. I think you're smart enough to know you can't edit through the lock. However, I'm willing to lift it early if other administrators think it's warranted. In fact, if any uninvolved administrator wants to lift it, that's fine with me.--Bbb23 (talk)17:35, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thing is, even if we get protection lifted, there is nothing in your report that confirms to Yatzhek thatthey were indeed edit warring. Now, it may be that there is nothing that will make them see that (see above, on incompetence), but it seems to me that Dougweller's (extensive) report (thank you Doug) makes a very reasonable case that the editor is warring. Sure, I saw the note you left on their talk page, but that's on another matter, and it's their behavior in the article and the current lock that makes it difficult to work on it--I got JSTOR and a ton of articles open, and I started making drafts on the talk page.Drmies (talk)18:15, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- {ec}} I've returned the protection to semi, as it was before (on account of IP disruption/socking). I agree with the user/s Drmies/Dougweller, whether they're one or two, that the article shouldn't be held in thrall because of Yatzhek's disruptiveness. Yatzek, please read the warnings on your page carefully, you're very close to a block right now. I'm removing the result "Locked", since I've rescinded it, but I'm not closing this yet, as other uninvolved admins may have something to add, for instance a block of Yatzek for edit warring (I don't have enough time to look at the history as a whole to make that call myself).Bishonen |talk18:24, 5 June 2014 (UTC).
- In retrospect, my action was too hasty. I have this habit of not looking at diffs in a report unless I need to. So, I didn't go back far enough to see that Yatzhek had indeed breachedWP:3RR. Too any users who feel impugned by my action, I apologize. As for blocking Yatzhek now for the previous breach, I feel uncomfortable doing that and will leave to it to other admins. Obviously, if he resumes the war, he will be blocked (I will do it if no one else does), if for no other reason based on Acroterion's warning.--Bbb23 (talk)18:29, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks Bbb: I appreciate your scrutiny and that you don't play favorites. Bish has unprotected. As for Yatzhek, if they stop reverting on that article I'm fine with them not getting blocked, though it's pretty clear that a handful of editors have grave doubts about them. Again, thanks, and happy Boniface day everyone.Drmies (talk)18:41, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

It's not constructive to bring this here is it? Please sort out disputes on the talk page.♦Dr. Blofeld09:22, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- As far as I know, 3RR rule is very strict. Even if you are right, 4th revert invite sure block. The old image, which was there for 2 years, is restored on the suggestion of another user. IfUser:Krimuk90 has no objection to that image, I would like to end this matter.Abhi (talk)15:03, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
- This is when I was blocked after 4th revert. An editor took admin decision, concluded that image will be deleted, and even before admin decision kept reverting my edits. Obviously, admins have different standards for same rule. Rampant favoritism, lawlessness. It force editors to leave wikipedia. That's why I have reduced my presence on wikipedia. Almost quit.Abhi (talk)15:24, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
- Result:User:Abhi andUser:Krimuk90 are both warned. A further revert by either of you may lead to a block. You are now discussing on the talk page; try to reach a conclusion there. SeeWP:DR if there is no result. The fact the prior image was there for 2 years is no guarantee of consensus.

Editor was previously warned, and deleted the warning from his talk page (which is his right to do). Also this is aWP:BLP, so we must be extra careful inserting controversial material that has no consensus.VictoriaGrayson (talk)16:53, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- Hi there!
- I'm a little surprised about being 'reported', and thought I'd mention a few of points that I hope are taken into consideration.
- I was more than happy to discuss the prospect of including a section on the Dorje Shugden controversy on the talk page as you can see. VictoriaGrayson on the other hand contributed very little to this discussion. Clearly consensus was reached to include a section on the Dorje Shugden controversy on the Dalai Lama's page. However, the precise wording of the section was not agreed upon.
- @CFynn: made a good suggestion and I made a few small uncontroversial changes (at least I thought they were uncontroversial at the time!) and added his suggestion. I openly said on the talk page that I had made some small changes to this section, and later explained the reasons for these changes.
- One of the edits I made to@CFynn:'s suggestion was for a typo.
- Another change I made was to do with changing Dholgyal to Dorje - which has also been addressed (we cannot redirect to a link that then redirects again (i.e. Dholgyal Shugden redirects to Dorje Shugden).
- However, the important point is that VictoriaGrayson, did not revert my version to Chris' version. Nor did this editor make any attempt at editing the section on the Dorje Shugden controversy to try and improve it. Nor did they express their concerns with my specific changes on the talk page (e.g. deity vs spirit etc). Instead the entire section was simply removed! And this happened a number of times. Personally I would question this approach, especially since it was so clear that consensus had been reached at including a section on the Dorje Shugden controversy in this article. Perhaps one of the moderators could offer some advice here (for both of us)? Thanks in advance :)Kjangdom (talk)18:53, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- Kjangdom admits"However, the precise wording of the section was not agreed upon." I rest my case.VictoriaGrayson (talk)19:11, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- That is irrelevant! There are no Wikipedia guideline that say that the precise wording of a section has to be agreed on on a talk page before an edit is made. This approach would clearly stifle editing across the board. I don't really want to get drawn into any more debate here. I will however keep an eye out for when a moderator replies. Thanks again.Kjangdom (talk)19:26, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
- Result: Kjangdom iswarned that they may be blocked if they revert the article again. I count four reverts on 5 June but it is now too late to issue a block for that. People have been claiming talk page consensus but I don't see it; I recommend a more thorough discussion and briefer statements.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:[178][179][180]
Comments:
I asked a question on the Fargo TV talk page, after a previous discussion wound up driving away another editor for supposedly policy-based reasons that no one could seem to actually verify. Drmargi then[181] deleted my questions, then announced on a talk page that he wasn't going to comment. With neither of the original editors commenting, Drmargi tried several times to hat the discussion with a snarky note, then did so again while using an obvious IP. The IP's edits are an obvious sock, her only previous edits are to ER-related articles and a discussion[182] on Spooks, which are topics that Drmargi also edits regularly[183].
In the middle of all this, I realized I wasn't going to get any answers from Drmargi on the policy question I had asked, so I hatted the whole thing myself (eventually AussieLegend explained it to me, which was quite helpful)[184] and again here[185] with even more neutral language. However, Drmargi and the IPs continue to push for their hat edit summary, which is actually kind of insulting.
This one is admittedly fairlyWP:LAME, and at this point, all I'd like to do is walk away from the whole matter with a neutral hat summary left behind me. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
(Updated material) I see now where Drmargi has claimed not to be online all day[186], even though she was definitely editing here[187] within minutes of the first IP edit to the page[188]. That's the only time frame of the day when the first IP was editing, and Drmargi was online at the same time. By some wacky coincidence.

Straight forward violation of 3RR and POV pushing.Volunteer Marek (talk)03:49, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

- I'd request that the sysop that reviews this fellow's case look at his whole edit history. He has a strong history of tendentious editing in areas relating to the conflict in Ukraine, and has been repeatedly disruptive across many articles for a few months now. This is only the latest of his many spates of disruptive editing.RGloucester —☎04:48, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
Blocked – for a period of72 hours. The reported user was blocked for violating 3RR and for agenda-driven editing.RGloucester, with your last edit reverting to "talk page consensus" you violated 3RR. Consider this awarning that if you revert again at the article for up to three days from now, you risk being blocked.

- While the activities ofRichey90211 can be considered as long term edit warring. I still don't think that a block will help at all. User hardly gets on, and whenever he is online he maybe editing the page. There maybe a need to protect this page, for about 1 month or more. Page itself has no recent events, or it has to be updated or daily/weekly basis. Protection will prompt Richey90211 to discuss.OccultZone (Talk)12:45, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

- @Ian.thomson: I second that, because I had reverted the user yesterday. But you can inform us if user has carried out same behavior on multiple pages. Apparently, topic ban is for abusing the edit privileges on multiple pages, or having the long history of blocks after conflicting on same wikiproject(quality is not a criteria here).OccultZone (Talk)03:37, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

This has the potential to cross over into pages such asSlavery andIndentured servant (though it hasn't yet). I've seen topic bans (even recently) for editors who have been focused on a single article. But, it would be morebetter to protect the page and try to get him to talk about it first.Ian.thomson (talk)15:14, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
I have communicated with you guys several times and there has been no change and I will get many people to protest against this article because its racist... I have provided several credible sources that state indentured servitude is NOT slavery yet you refuse to change this in the article. You have etymology of coolie completely wrong. You put a whole bunch of hypotheticals instead of what the word actually means. The word means unskilled laborer or hireling.http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/coolie

Wikipedia has not done anything wrong to coolies. The writers of the article coolie has. Wikipedia is a site that is open to the public and you do not have the right to compose history the way you want to. You have disregarded my credible facts to serve your own racist agenda.

- Well, not to be too obvious about it, because the editors who are reverting your changes have a track record which you cannot duplicate.
NeilN, for instance, has been here since 2005, and has almost 60,000 edit to articles and to almost 23,000 pages, while I have around 144,000 edits to about 29,000 pages. If you want to make the argument that we are under the control of King and Baring, you go right ahead and do so, only I think you had better wear ear protection for tne disdainful response you'll receive.BMK (talk)10:38, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Previous warning on talk page concerning personal attacks[239].
This user could potentially be the same person as[240] who made essentially the same edit earlier and then reverted three times before AzraeL9128 jumped in. The rhetoric in the personal attacks that the user was previously warned about resembles the comments by 2A02 on the talk page of this article. Regardless, even if not, there's a 3RR violation here.

Comments:
I wasn't initially involved in this, but got drawn in seeing a thread onWT:VG. Information about the subject has been leaked, and it has been picked up by reliable sources, who are reporting the contents of said leak as fact.User:Artichoker added the content on 8th June, and every time was reverted by Ryulong. After clarifying thatGameSpot is a reliable source and making sure that the facts were referenced, I attempted to re-add the information, only to get Ryulong's insistence thathis own amateur judgements trump those of a industry standard professional publication. -hahnchen15:27, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- Don't make a retaliatory report. There has been plenty of discussion to say that in this situation GameSpot's reliability is non-existant. You and Artichoker have just ignored and argued against it.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)15:28, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- It's not in retaliation, I was writing the report and you fired first, I thought it best to just copy and paste what I had into this one. I wasn't quick enough to compile that inthree minutes. Let's keep it together. -hahnchen15:32, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- "Being right" doesn't make you immune to breaking 3RR yourself. If a dispute is taking place, both parties should stop. There is no "right version" and both parties are at fault for edit warring during that time. There was never really substantial consensus to back up your reasoning Ryulong, and either version was both just as right and wrong as the other.Blake(Talk·Edits)15:37, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- No, Hahnchen. Reports aren't combined like this and this is definitely retaliatory. If you had evidence for 6 reverts as you have here you could have reported already but you only did it after I sent you the AN3 warning. These should be separate as all reports are. And Blake, there was no consensus for the inclusion. Two people being unimpressed by two other people's arguments doesn't cancel one out and validate the other, even though status quo was exclusion.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)15:40, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- (Man, I've got like 5 edit conflicts trying to post this...) There was no consensus for the exclusion either. And as I said, "being right" doesn't give you divine power to break the rules. Both of you edit warred. The reasoning behind this is thatif you were really right, and had consensus,SOMEONE ELSE would have reverted it to the "right version" and you wouldn't have had to. I was going to revert you myself, but Hanchen was too quick, so it is a little disappointing he got an additional strike because I was too slow.Blake(Talk·Edits)15:44, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- I don't know. I attemptWP:BRD every god damn time but people just edit war the content back in again. I have done everything I can to engage in discussion on this matter for the past 48 hours but everyone wants this stupid unsubstantiated but probably 100% true rumor that will be verified within the next hour posted two days ago.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)15:49, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- Comment - I wanted to keep this together with the report above, but got reverted several times and thought that the 3RR noticeboard was probably the worst place to have an edit war. -hahnchen15:41, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- Again, reports are never combined as you wanted these two to be.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)15:49, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- That's fine, although given the current edits atPokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, it looks like you've gotten over it and no longer using edit summaries as shouting exhibitions. -hahnchen15:53, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, I've thrown in the towel even though I totally intend to rewrite the section based on reliable sources that do not mention CoroCoro but rather Nintendo's digital E3 conference which goes live in 5 minutes.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)15:56, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
Both of these have been resolved so can we just withdraw both of them and be done with, because any block after this point would be punitive which isn't what blocks are for.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)20:07, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- I'm fine with whatever, I'm expecting a trout. -hahnchen20:17, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not as optimistic.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)20:24, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- I don't know what the process is here, but I'm fine with these being closed without further action. -hahnchen21:21, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah. The more important thing now is trying to figure out what to do with these situations in the future, which just requires more discussion at WT:VG.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)21:41, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
Comment: My suggestion would be to block Ryulong for 72 hours and Hahnchen for 24 hours. Someone with Ryulong's block history ought to be more careful. Hahnchen should not be trying to join him in the pantheon of edit warriors. Ryulong's revert war against the game announcement has no obvious justification in policy. A block woud be preventive in this case because Ryulong is otherwise likely to continue this pattern indefinitely. The real question is whether the block should be much longer. Ryulong has nine past blocks that appear correct.User:Blake's comments above are noteworthy.EdJohnston (talk)21:46, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- FWIW,WP:NEWSORG specifically warns against reporting on rumor, which (until as of this morning when Nintendo actually confirmed the details) was the information being attempted to be inserted into the article. I can't speak to the actions, since this is not a case covered under the exceptions toWP:3RR. --MASEM (t)21:53, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- WP:NEWSORG is a guideline whileWP:V is a policy. It's true that neither one provides an exemption from edit warring underWP:3RRNO. Ryulong recommends more discussion atWT:WikiProject Video games. While discussion is good, the videogame project can't issue exemptions from the edit warring policy either.EdJohnston (talk)22:05, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- I did agree that 3RRNO has no applicable exemptions here and can't justify the action, but I stand by that Ryulong has a very valid argument against inclusion. --MASEM (t)22:14, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- Result: Both partieswarned per the above discussion. Premature announcement of a video game (if that's what it was) is not vandalism and is not a BLP violation. There is no excuse for this underWP:3RRNO. Both parties opened complaints here and both had already broken 3RR, so it's unclear what they expected to happen. It would be better to take the to issue to admins *before* you go over the limit. If you can't control your own reverts you will face unpredictable consequences.EdJohnston (talk)02:29, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

Comments:
For the past couple of days, there has been an ongoing discussion atTalk:Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire#"CoroCoro leaks" as well asWikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games#Request for outside input on Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire regarding the nature of websites posting information from published material that is currently not available to the general public. Arguments have been put forward by myself and other editors sayingWP:V requires that anyone can independently verify the content which is not possible as the print material is not yet available, while Hahnchen and another editor argue that being posted on this particular website which is normally considered a reliable source automatically grants it verifiable status. Despite no general consensus about the issue, Hahnchen decided to restore the contested content despite my present disagreement. I made all attempts to engage in discussion this issue but Hahnchen simply disagrees with all the points presented by multiple editors and is instead siding with another editor and restoring the content of questionable sourcing. He has also not engaged in any other arguments, other than comparing this whole situation about Pokémon fansites posting illegally obtained photographs to Edward Snowden's whistleblowing on the NSA.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)15:24, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
Also in his retaliatory report below, it shows how he effectively gamed me into breaking 3RR on this instance despite being repeatedly told that consensus is against his additions.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)15:31, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- Note how even Ryulong'sDiff of attempted resolution shows him trying to discredit GameSpot's editorial process just becausehe too does not have access to the sources. A reliable source can certify information that would otherwise be unreliable through their professional editorial processes, that's the definition of a reliable source. I am trying to add reliably sourced information relevant to the subject, and it is consistently being reverted. Here is the source -http://www.gamespot.com/articles/pokemon-omega-ruby-alpha-sapphire-remakes-add-new-mega-evolutions/1100-6420187/ -hahnchen15:47, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- It's the only diff I could find when I was doing the whole automated thing that didn't work. The source is problematic andMasem and I have been saying that for the past two days but you just want the content to be posted because you think GameSpot staff members bless anything that they post.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)15:51, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- And GameSpot doesn't have access to the source either. They're posting content originally from the unreliable source Serebii.net where they say they found photos on 2chan or some other Japanese website of pages from the magazine. Serebii is unreliable and anyone who reports on them in a chain is unreliable. This is fact and supported byWP:V, as is the argument that because no one can go get the magazine to know if it's correct (with as what happened with IGN's reporting onThe Last Guardian over the weekend) we may have completely incorrect information. At least until they make the announcement at E3 in 5 minutes.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)15:54, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- You are not in a position to override the judgment of a reliable source. I value the professional editorial processes at GameSpot over your judgment. I'm not interested in playing source-sleuth with you, and I don't like the game you've tried to impose on everyone else. There are times that reliable sources are wrong, and when they're wrong, they issue a retraction, and we can edit the article to reflect that. But for the last two days, you have been suppressing relevant, reliably sourced information from Wikipedia, because you don't like it. -hahnchen15:58, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not the only person to point out that in this situation this website cannot be considered a reliable source because they're reporting on rumors posted on a fansite. Yeah it's probably 100% true but when we are 100% aware that the content is not available to the general publicyet we should use discretion when discussing it on Wikipedia.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)16:00, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- The thing is, consensus on WT:VG seemed to be that "If rumors are notable enough to post, this is good to go". Stating the leak as true information "confirmed by CoroCoro" was wrong, and correct to remove. However, changing the content to "Leaks of CoroCoro said this" changed the discussion to a whole new ballgame. We are no longer trying to assertWP:V because we aren't verifying that the content is true, nobody can do that, as you said. We are verifying the existence of the rumor, and then debating on whether or not it is within content guidelines for us to include reports of rumors. However, you became blind and never saw the discussion change, and continued to argue for the variability of the rumor as fact.Blake(Talk·Edits)16:05, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- There's nothing that says this rumor is really notable to discuss. And rumor mongering isn't something Wikipedia should do.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)16:09, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- The fact that multiple reliable sources reported on it makes it notable. They wouldn't have made whole articles about it if the information was like a leak of a single name. That the leak contained such substantial information made it notable enough for multiple reliable sources to report on, thus allowing us to report on it. But like I said, that is what the WT:VG discussion was trying to move towards, whether the information was allowed under content guidelines, as it metWP:V andWP:N just fine. But it got distracted by the fact that "the information can't be verified" because the articles are sourcing Serebii, which makes no sense. We don't need to verify the information as fact if the content was rewritten to not treat it as such.Blake(Talk·Edits)16:25, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- The whole issue is that their known source isn't reliable so why should they be reliable? But now it's all moot because of the Pokémon trailer that was just shown.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)16:27, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- You don't get it. It doesn't need to be reliable, because we should treat it as a rumor and not fact. We can verify the fact that a rumor existed, by the numerous reliable sources that reported on it. However, as I am just now discovering,WP:VGSCOPE states that rumors should not be included in our articles. That is the guideline you should be throwing around from now on, not WP:V or WP:RS. If the content says "Leaks of CoroCoro contained this", we canverify that withreliable sources. The question is, "should we?"Blake(Talk·Edits)16:40, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- No. None of the sources have treated the content as a "rumor". They've presented everything as fact. Just look atGameSpot's piece. They say that information from CoroCoro has shown up online (from Serebii) and are just presenting the information as fact because none of them are aware that CoroCoro won't be out for 3 more days.—Ryūlóng (琉竜)16:56, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- You may have a point there. If all the sources treat the leak as fact, we can't treat it as a leak, because the sources treat it as fact. I am sure that at least one of those sources said it was unconfirmed information from a leak.... right?Blake(Talk·Edits)17:02, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- The only website out of the 4 that were posted by Artichoker, myself, and yourself that refers to any of this as a "leak" was Slashgear. Gamespot, Siliconera, and Kotaku just present it as is, as did Serebii. None of them acknowledge the fact that the CoroCoro issue isn't out yet. Not to mention that official information following the E3 conference proves some of the content posted by the websites factually incorrect (the new forms are translated as "Primal").—Ryūlóng (琉竜)17:09, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
- Note that Ryulong has edited the report to include diffs from other editors (in this caseUser:Artichoker). When I reinserted the information into the article, I also made clear of the sourcing and removed the factual inaccuracy that Ryulong complained about inthis edit. -hahnchen16:07, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

Further background: I have tried to explain to the IP through edit summaries, contacting the editor attheir talk page and initiating discussion on the article talk page. There is never any response from them other than a revert. I think my good faith has stretched as far as it can go now and I am being dragged deeper and deeper into an edit war, so I'm turning it over to ANI. If the editor won't discuss the issue or stop inserting the content there is nothing further I can do anyway.
There are some other concerns. Initially I thought it was just a case of the editor correcting something and not providing a source, but the editormade a further edit that I categorically know is not true. There are a wealth of sources documenting the film's premiere in Atlanta, so I am beginning to suspect the editor is deliberately inserting false information.
It is also worth noting that this IP address has been blocked five times already and has just come off a year long block (see[286]).Betty Logan (talk)04:01, 11 June 2014 (UTC)

I have continuously undone edits which users have repeatedly deleted and vandalized. Originally I had received an email from "Doc James" stating to post reliable sources. I took his advice into consideration and re-posted my section with a reliable source from "PubMed.gov". According to "Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine)"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable_sources_(medicine), "Pubmed" is a reliable and legitimate source which I used for my edit.~~enlightened_one088~~

User:Mdann52 I don't think this is the right noticeboard to report this.WP:BLANKING prohibits the deletion of a notice regarding an active sanction. It is a violation to remove that text once (or let's say twice, supposing that the editor does not know the rule the first time), it is not necessary to count 4 deletions in 24h (3RR).Avpop (talk)16:35, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- Result: Blocked one week. I'll discuss a possible compromise with Jaqeli on his talk page. If the community thinks that the advice about ban notices inWP:UP#CMT is too strict, they should change the advice. Until then we should enforce it. The advice forbids removing "any other notice regarding an active sanction".EdJohnston (talk)16:42, 12 June 2014 (UTC)

Comments:
Collect is repeatedly reverting changes to this article, reaching 4RR within less than 3 hours. There seems to belittle or no support for his contention that this is a BLP issue. Even in a best case, the issue is sufficiently borderline that he should be soliciting feedback rather than edit-warring.MastCell Talk22:26, 11 June 2014 (UTC)
- Note the last edit was simply regarding a WTA where Wikipedia's voice clearly stated that a person is "labelled a climate change denier". , and that I started a proper discussion at BLP/N. In shortI HAVE ASKED FOR FEEDBACK. Is that sufficiently clear? And I do regard using "climate change denier" as a descriptive word for a living person to be "contentious" and further I have noted that such edits are subject to the BLP strictures placed on such articles at the Climate Change Arbitration decision, which I cited. Calling a person a "climate change denier" on its face falls under the ArbCom rules. This "report" is clearly not valid at this point, and the fact the OP seems not to regardWP:BLP/N to be proper feedback, nor my use of the article talk page as "proper feedback" seems rather the actual problem. As far as the outre claim that the SYNTH was not SYNTH -- MastCell actuallyremoved that part of the edit -- meaning that he clearly agreed it was improper. BTW, MastCell -- the "warning" is supposed to be given before you let both barrels loose.Collect (talk)22:52, 11 June 2014 (UTC)
- The thing is, you're supposed to ask for feedbackand then stop edit-warring. This looks like a content dispute where you've failed to convince anyone that there's a BLP issue, but edit-warred nonetheless. Your consistent failure to provide actual diffs to back your constant BLP accusations should be raising red flags by now, in terms of taking your statements at face value. This is edit-warring, plain and simple.
As for "warning" you... I tried that the last time you edit-warred and violated 3RR, just a month or two ago. I gave you a heads-up rather than reporting you. And youresponded aggressively and gave me a bunch of shit about it—even thoughyou were the one violating policy, and I was going out of my way to be courteous and give you a chance to self-revert. I'm past the point in my wiki-career where I keep doing the same thing and expecting different results. I gave you a courtesy notice when I posted this report, as per our best practices, and now it's up to someone else to decide how to handle your 4 reverts.MastCell Talk00:44, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- Oh -- you mean the time I self-reverted?[296]? I had not realized you wereso angry that I hadSELF-REVERTED then. Meanwhile, would you care to decry this edit there[297]? I would love to see you say that was against BLP. Cheers.Collect (talk)05:51, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- Excuse me for interrupting while the two of you are bickering, but it's been a while,MastCell, since I read the The Cynic's Guide to Wikipedia on your user page. I thought it was great the first time, and it hasn't lost any of its punch. It lightens my day in a twisted sort of way.--Bbb23 (talk)00:53, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. As you can see, I'm getting more cynical by the minute. Eight years is probably too long for anyone to spend here. You're messing with my bickering momentum, though. :PMastCell Talk03:11, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- I endorse this report. The "proper discussion" was started by him on BLP/N without even a courtesy note to let other editors know he had taken the issue elsewhere instead of using the article's talk page. The threads on theMarco Rubio talk page regarding recent edits (three) have all been opened by my, none by him. Hisfirst comment addressed at me in the TP contained two completelyunfounded attacks not only failingWP:AGF,WP:FOC andWP:NPA but even accusing me of an editI had not done. The term "climate change denier" is used bynumerousWP:RS (just check the article). Today Collect removed twice[298][299] the same content, first claiming "OR, SYNTH", then changing the reason to "political purposes" and afterwards re-affirming his removal now claiming a supposed incorrect use of the word "although" when that word wasnowhere to be found. Being an experienced editor, some action should be taken. Regards.Gaba(talk)05:01, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- bumped into this, American political topics are very partisan here, I see good work here by Collect, thishttps://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Marco_Rubio&diff=612542743&oldid=612537336 edit removes a "labeling" and was a total correct take down - looking at the story prior to Collect's edits, the content has been improved in respect to Neutrality. The complainant above GABA is still reverting the storyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Marco_Rubio&diff=612590741&oldid=612554185 he made a revert two mins after posting his desire to have action taken against the COLLECT editorMosfetfaser (talk)05:16, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
FWIW, it was ArbCom which ruled that bandying "climate change denier" etc. falls under BLP, and this was in an official ArbCom case. The charges that I am doing anything other thanfollowing the requirements of that case are not quite accurate at all, as are the self-serving arguments that changing "labelled" to "called" is in any iota of sense improper, while the complainant continues to revert.[300] is, IMO, a blatantWP:BLP violation on its own. Calling for action against me at that point is simply, again IMO, grossly improper. Now back to bed.Collect (talk)05:42, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- The edit which put Collect in violation of 3RR changed "labelled" to "called". A large number of editors work on the Rubio BLP, and it was entirely unnecessary for Collect to edit-war on this particular issue: if it is a BLP problem, then other editors can take care of it -- and if it's only Collect who feels this way then consensus is against him. The inclination to edit-war in circumstances like this needs to be controlled, and since Collect can't seem to control it himself…Nomoskedasticity (talk)08:47, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
It's been over three years since Collect was last blocked, though it's somewhat striking thatall of his six blocks in the 2008 — 2011 period were for reverting too much (3RR or edit warring or breaching 1RR or 0RR restrictions). Collect, keeping your nose clean for three years builds up a kind of reluctance to block, at least in me, similar to the way one doesn't like to sully a completely clean block log. Youwere edit warring, and I don't find your arguments above especially convincing. But thereare arguments, there exist certain possible complications, so I won't block at this time. But please be aware that I was within a whisker of doing it, so if you'd like your 2012 — 2014 (incidentally almost all of 2011, too) block log to continue looking good, don't act like this again. I'm pretty offended by your tone in much of the above, also. For an editor as experienced as you to pick on the lack of a formal 3RR warning "before you let both barrels loose", doesn't do you any favours either. Another admin may make a different call, so I'm leaving the "result" field open.Bishonen |talk10:01, 12 June 2014 (UTC).
- Actually three of the blocksmore than three years ago were for 1RR - and 2 were quickly reversed by AN discussion (in one case, the block was found to be by a specifically involved admin of all things). Cheers -- but now Nomo has commented, my life is complete <g>.Collect (talk)11:28, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- I see one block that was overturned; in the remaining cases where a block was lifted, it appears to have been after commitments by you to go forth and sin no more—often under additional editing restrictions which aren't always immediately apparent from the block log. For instance, when King of Hearts lifted his block on you in 2010 ([301]), the (un)block log entry just says "By mutual consent". The discussion on your talk page with the blocking administrator, however, notes that you were placed under a 1-revert-per-week restriction on two articles as a condition of unblocking:[302].
- I would say that you definitely exhibited more skill than most at reading the writing on the wall when you were blocked, and were able to formulate or agree to community-acceptable unblock terms with credible alacrity. I further don't think that judgement errors you made years ago should be considered with the same weight they might if they had happened more recently—though they should not be ignored entirely, either. However, you do yourself no favors when you invite readers here to incorrectly infer that many of your previous blocks were not appropriately placed.TenOfAllTrades(talk)14:37, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
- 2/0 was involved, and clearly told so. KofH was actually per AN reversal and saving face on his part, Tiptoe was for a "clear notification" which was placedafter the block which I find amusing. Gwen was for an edit more than two weeks prior to the block. All of which is well documented, and an indication why blindly reading a block log is asinine.
