Welcome to the edit warring noticeboard |
---|
This page is for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule.
You must notify any user you have reported. You may use You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.
Edit warring is a behavior, typically exemplified by the use of repeated edits to "win" a content dispute. It is different from a bold, revert, discuss (BRD) cycle. Reverting vandalism and banned users is not edit warring; at the same time, content disputes, even egregious point of view edits and other good-faith changes do not constitute vandalism. Administrators often must make a judgment call to identify edit warring when cooling disputes. Administrators currently use several measures to determine if a user is edit warring.
An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Violations of this rule normally attract blocks of at least 24 hours. Any appearance of gaming the system by reverting a fourth time just outside the 24-hour slot is likely to be treated as a 3RR violation. See here for exemptions.
Sections older than 48 hours are archived by Lowercase sigmabot III. |

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: There has been extensive discussion of the content the user is disputing at Talk:Tom_Brady#Greatest_QB_in_NFL_history
Comments:
After I warned the user about edit warring, they left a defiant message on my talk page that they were only doing what [they] think is best.
[10]—Bagumba (talk) 05:15, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- I'll comment that outside of the merits of this particular edit warring case, I think the article itself needs some kind of administrator attention. 1RR? Locking? I don't know. The subject of the discussion (is Brady the Greatest of All Time? Can we report that he's widely regarded as such without a cite stating specifically how widely regarded and by whom?) is one which which arouses tremendous passions, and many editors (at least a dozen, including myself) on both sides are engaging in a protracted edit war - this iteration going back a month. I suspect Bagumba being WP:INVOLVED in the edits would prevent him from being seen as a neutral party shutting this down. Regards, Tarl N. (discuss) 06:34, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- I'm not particularly involved in this article, but that's because I hate Tom Brady and can't be neutral about him. This edit summary by Mk8mlyb, "I just don't like that". is an argument to avoid on discussion pages. I recommend an impartial admin lock it further as they choose. – Muboshgu (talk) 07:09, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- Another post at my talk page After this case was opened, Mk8mlyb posted again at my talk page:
Hey, why'd you do that? Okay, I'm not innocent here, I won't deny that, but I'm just one of the guys who's getting drawn up in this, and I'm the one who's taking the brunt of all this? I'll meet you at the other talk page.

Absolutely wants to publish bad quality pictures. Doesn't understand. -- Vacuasword (talk) 09:02, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
it is your opinion, that those pictures are bad and again your opionion is very subjective, what makes your opinion better then mine...., did not hear an answer yet — Preceding unsigned comment added by SpaceMusk (talk • contribs) 13:42, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- SpaceMusk The same goes for you; you can't edit war to preserve a picture that you feel is better. If you change a picture and others disagree, you must obtain consensus that your favored picture is the one that should be present. 331dot (talk) 13:45, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) @SpaceMusk: I'm seeing that multiple users have pointed out technical issues with the photos, issues other than "I just don't like it." Acting like they have not is just disruptive and only going to get you in trouble. Repeatedly dismissing those technical issues as "just their opinion" and asking to hear another reason is also disruptive and not going to help you.
- Also, multiple editors have asked you to stop trying to add those photos. It seems pretty clear that you're taking the removal of your photos personally -- don't. No editor owns their contributions here.
- In short: knock it off. Find a different way to contribute for now besides photos, until you learn to properly take criticism. Ian.thomson (talk) 13:49, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
so you are saying i can not take critisism, i think that's an attack but ok.... SpaceMusk (talk) 14:31, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- Your behavior has so far demonstrated an inability to take criticism. Saying that you view that as an attack rather proves it. You are more than welcome to change your behavior. Trying to "win" this "fight" is only going to dig a deeper hole. Ian.thomson (talk) 14:36, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

I don’t know how this works, but me and Dimsar01 are in an edit war. Instead of going in, I just would like a non biased person to have a look at the page. It involves the high ticket prices of this year’s contest. I reckon it should be mentioned, others, however, don’t want it in the article. Is there anyone who could give us some guidance? 「Robster1983」☞ Life's short, talk fast ☜ 11:11, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

IP 90.43.10.244 has been constantly edit warring on the BMW 3 Series article by replacing the infobox image despite the fact we already reached a consensus of what image to use on the infobox and is getting out of control. They already been warned for their behaviour. The motive as they stated: "As anonymous wiki user,i won't let this unacceptable image represent the BMW E36" --Vauxford (talk) 23:29, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
- While I support a block for the IP, Vauxford needs to be advised that their handling of the situation was wrong. I tried doing that when they posted at AN, but they appeared not to accept what I said.[16] When both sides are in the wrong, both sides need to be addressed; not just one who was more in the wrong. ―Mandruss ☎ 00:20, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- Mandruss I simply fumbled up with the report, technically I did not edit warring as the diffs you showed me are about 2 weeks apart and I done no more then 3 today which I then stopped and tried to get assistant, I could of address this problem better in the future but I personally don't think I'm in the wrong here as well. --Vauxford (talk) 00:55, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- @Vauxford: See the very first sentence at Wikipedia:Edit warring. "An edit war occurs when editors who disagree about the content of a page repeatedly override each other's contributions." It says nothing about the amount of time between the reverts. The essential point is that it was a single dispute over a single bit of content, the infobox image. So yes, you were a participant in the edit war, and there is no "good" edit warring. You have now reverted six times in that dispute, and one should have been your limit. Wikipedia:Dispute resolution describes how to handle content disputes and I don't see your actions described there. I am not suggesting a block in your case, but I would if you acted in the same manner in a future dispute. ―Mandruss ☎ 01:08, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- Mandruss I simply fumbled up with the report, technically I did not edit warring as the diffs you showed me are about 2 weeks apart and I done no more then 3 today which I then stopped and tried to get assistant, I could of address this problem better in the future but I personally don't think I'm in the wrong here as well. --Vauxford (talk) 00:55, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- Mandruss Goodness cut me some slacks... Whatever happened to the three-revert rule? They are within more than 24 hours, you're taking this far out of proportion just because I made some mistake, if what your saying is the case then you should inform others who been reverting this user's edits as well. --Vauxford (talk) 01:30, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- Blocked – for a period of 2 weeks Longer than normal block duration set as the editor stated they would continue using an IP account to edit war. A SPA registered account like this would be blocked for an indefinite period. I don't see anything particularly problematic with Vauxford's conduct, especially given the unpleasant way the IP editor has chosen to conduct themselves - which included making the above threat in the attempt to discuss this matter. This report was malformed though - please fill in all the standard fields in the future. Nick-D (talk) 03:56, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

Relentless edit-warring against multiple editors. PAs on edit-summaries. Use of socks, article had to be semi-protected, but despite that, these confirmed new accounts are still edit-warring adding cruft into the article.

- 3GFRIENDSNSD (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) is almost certainly a sock of 9W 3937, not only it posted the identical message at my talk page (sock dif, 3GFRIENDSNSD dif), it also re-inserted the same fancruft and "article is outdated" maintenance template at Gugudan, same as 9W 3937 did. Snowflake91 (talk) 12:19, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- I just CU-blocked User talk:3GFRIENDSNSD, User talk:MTR 553890, User talk:9W 3937. Pretty revolting how the one account claimed to be neutral. In addition, there is a huge amount of IP editing going on--some of it possibly just logged-out editing, but not all of it. Drmies (talk) 18:16, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- You know, there is so much of it, on a variety of IPs--I suggest someone start an SPI, and ask a CU (who knows ranges well) to see if any ranges need closer scrutiny, or maybe a block. And it may be there's some older accounts we can call a master. Right now, at lunchtime, this is more than I can handle without a notepad and some food. Drmies (talk) 18:18, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

He was also subjected to a topic ban in the recent past for being WP:TENDENTIOUS in the very same topic area.[41] Most of MehrdadFR's edits involve promoting the narrative of the current Iranian regime and downplaying everything else. Looking at the compelling evidence, in combination with the stuff he writes here on this talk page ("Your edits are pure WP:FRINGE garbage"), I'm wondering whether this user is actually here to build this encyclopedia.

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: [45] (I will note I had never participated in conflicts such as this one before and did not know what the appropriate reaction would be. I have, however, mentioned three times that not following a consensus will incur consequences, even if I did not at that moment know which those would be.)
Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [46]
Comments: According to WP:Edit warring, "it is perfectly possible to edit war without breaking the three-revert rule, or even coming close to doing so," and it appears to me this refers to cases such as this one. Events unfolded as follows:
One day, DePiep comes over the said article and changes all spellings of "aluminum" to "aluminium," arguing that this would be in compliance with WP:ALUM. I undid that revert, explaining on the talk page why I thought WP:ALUM was not applicable for that particular article. Twenty minutes after, I was accused of not applying the rule instead of arguing for its inapplicability in this case (which was the opposite of what I had said), and fifteen minutes later, without giving me a chance to respond, they revert my revert. I reiterated my point that WP:ALUM was not applicable for that article and instead of succumbing to an edit war myself, called for the relevant WikiProjects to provide more opinions. All these opinions were in favor of inapplicability of WP:ALUM for the target article (there were four of them, and three of these four were beyond mere yeas). Over the course of discussion, DePiep has made a couple more accusations that were denied and did not return any sympathy at all. In the end, there was a clear consensus: WP:ALUM is not applicable here. I have a few times suggested that if DePiep were unhappy with this outcome, they may ask for some external judgment (at the time, I thought it would be the Arbitration Committee, but now it seems it should have been Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard).
I decided to take advice from one of the editors who had participated in the discussion, expanding the part on how Hall shaped how the name of the metal is spelled in the United States (essentially, adding more content). Yet I was undone with the comment "per talk: let's not overdo that "alumnium" WP:ALUM thing" (which is funny because none of this is true: a) nobody, including DePiep, had argued that such expansion was undesirable and thus there would be nothing relevant on the talk page, b) WP:ALUM was found to be inapplicable, and c) even if it were applicable, it has nothing with what content should or should not be in an article; it merely regulates how one word (or, if you count the other elements as well, three) should be spelled in certain articles). What I see is that DePiep is failing to recognize the outcome of the discussion (which revolves around the statement that WP:ALUM is not applicable) and keeps making edits despite the said outcome, even if it takes them to remove content without any actual explanation other than a reference to an argument that was never made and a clearly irrelevant rule. I was unfortunately unable to find a rule that would specifically say that not following a consensus was in its scope, and I presumed the situation would be regarded as edit warring (that's the impression I got from the last paragraph of Wikipedia:Edit warring#What to do if you see edit-warring behavior), even if the other party does not succumb to excessive reverting to match opponent's ambitions.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure what should be done as a result. A 24-hour block wouldn't do anything given the pace of the dispute; a two-week block would seem excessive. (Then again, I'm not a huge fan of blocks in general and you may judge otherwise.) I would normally prefer to resolve this via discussion, but I'm afraid discussion won't get us anywhere as there is not a possibility DePiep might suppose they could possibly be wrong or at least accept they're in severe minority. I see one of the previous discussions on this page ended with a warning; I'd be happy with that outcome.--R8R (talk) 17:21, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- Whatever. I'll have to read the guidelines and so to make a complete, well crafted comment, having all the dots and commas right, so maybe later more. Anyway: NO, the "3rd R" reported here is not to be judged as such. It followed the talkpage discussion (es even referred to it), it did not reinstate a previous version I have promoted, it did not contradict the consensus (as concluded by R8R themselves btw [to clarify: that is, R8R concluded the 'consensus' themselves in the discussion R8R had opened. To that, I have not complained nor did I revert any pre-state in any way (I left it to be "aluminum"). This does not state that the concluding process was correct]), etcetera. -DePiep (talk) 20:53, 10 March 2019 a(UTC)
- As for the timeline: original BRD started 2019-02-23 [47] (talk opened by R8R, good). It was concluded by R8R on 2019-03-01 [48], nine days ago. So I did not revert to previous, non-consensus (my preferred) version, and not in a "24h" or time-stressed order. -DePiep (talk) 22:13, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- Even worse: the first two edits brought in here are from Feb 23, the "3rd offence" is from Mar 8. That is thirteen days between. -DePiep (talk) 00:24, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
- Quick notice: I'm very busy at the moment but I will respond in 12 hours. If I don't, then consider that I have fallen powerless after what promises to be a very hard day as soon as I got home and be sure to see me respond tomorrow. In the meantime, I'm only asking not to take a word that DePiep says (or, for that matter, that I say) about the consensus that I pointed out. Check the discussion and observe it for yourselves; feel free to reprimand me if you don't find one.--R8R (talk) 08:14, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk:Pashtuns#Disputed:Hindu Pashtuns
Comments:
Just a disruptive WP:SPA who himself admits that he "don't want to edit other page" than Pashtuns.[51] He is here only for engaging in edit warring and WP:BATTLE. All he does is spew his ethnicity based stories by spewing what he believes in and accuse all other editors of socking,[52][53][54][ while he engages in canvassing to recruit editors for supporting his ethnic POV.[55][56][57] I recommend a WP:NOTHERE block. Shashank5988 (talk) 19:12, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- This is just threatening a newbie on Wikipedia. I was Directed by User:Dough Weller to make a talk page, and ask for third party opnion. Which is in my right. You can read what I wrote to those Pashtun wiki project experts. see: WP:ACCUSE and WP:SEEKHELP.The talk page Where we should discuss the 1 source given on Wikipedia for the Pashtun Hindus. As anyone can read, I did not give a point of view but dozen sources that explain the fact. I debunked on 9 March the 1 source and you guys are stilling reverting me without showing me why. I even saw 2 VPN that was used for this, I do not claim it was you but it makes the situation more untrustable. Everyone can see I did not give any opinion. Only sources I gave. It is in Wikipedia's interest to discuss. We shouldn't blindly accept something that was edited on 23 march 2018 and no-one is in the right to change that. Every admin can read the talkpage and see that I am not throwing an opinion but real scientific sources and documentaries/books of the Hindus themselves. Shashank5988 please stop Threatening me. I even said if I don't find a proper source it can stand. But I showed you everything and you are still not giving any source to debunk me. Just join the discussion. The only thing you did was attacking me and showing that 1 source of that Filmmaker over and over again. I have always requested help for an admin for this matter. Please admins, help us to find third parties who know a lot about the Pashtuns. (btw dont accuse things like ethnic POV, like I said i'm a Persian speaking Tajik). You just want to censor me. Admin there is really many third parties needed that chose no sides (so non-Hindu/Indians or Afghan, Pashtun expert). Or if there is an Afghan-Hindu editor that would be the best. That would be the best scennarios. So admin help is indeed needed Casperti (talk) 21:48, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- Page protected Another admin has fully-protected the article, so I don't think any further action is needed at this time. Casperti is free to continue to discuss the matter on the talk page and work toward building a consensus among editors for their changes. Only after new consensus is reached should the page be changed, not before. —C.Fred (talk) 21:53, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
Thank you, this is what we needed. Now, we have to discuss what we can agree upon (consensus) without edit reverting without reason.Casperti (talk) 21:59, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- Sorry User:Casperti, but given the multiple voices who have chimed in the discussion, we already have consensus to retain the information. Continuing to state that WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT isn't helpful, but rather, disregards others who all feel that the information should be retained. You've been asked not to change the article until a new consensus is reached and you should respect that. As you were nearly blocked for edit warring (I requested that the article be protected so that it would not come down to this), my personal recommendation is that you WP:DROPTHESTICK and edit other articles. Remember that the threshold for including items on Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth. We have multiple references that support the information in the article and will thus keep it. I hope this helps. With regards, AnupamTalk 02:03, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

A user has reverted my edits four times in 1h28m. My edits included removing an image gallery (Wikipedia's image use policy says that image galleries are appropriate if the images, as a collection, illustrate some aspect of the topic. Simple arbitrary collections of images are what the Wikimedia Commons is for) and creating stubs to replace redirects. 46.208.152.52 (talk) 20:53, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- I do not see four reverts. Unless the IP is implying that they have (also) broken WP:3RR and should be sanctioned? —C.Fred (talk) 21:59, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- I listed the four reverts, together with their times, under the heading "diffs of the user's reverts".
- [ec] Well, the most recent version seems to be a median between the two y'all were fighting over. Happy now? And you, IP, are just as guilty of edit warring as Imzadi. Happy days. Drmies (talk) 22:01, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- I edited in accordance with policy, and did not break the 3RR. The user I am reporting did not edit in accordance with policy, and they did break the 3RR. The sourced content which I added, and they deleted, is still deleted. But apparently I'm as guilty as they are, and should feel happy right now?

User is clearly not here to build an encyclopedia. He has already in his short time spammed various talk pages with his rants and aggressive behaviour. HistoryofIran (talk) 23:25, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- I have to agree with HistoryofIran. I have had no interaction with "Ted hamiltun" yet their rantings of "Persian users Community"[77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84], can be seen throughout their editing. Clearly this editor, who has edited sporadically since Dec. 2017, is here to Wikipedia:RIGHTGREATWRONGS and not here to build an encyclopedia. --Kansas Bear (talk) 23:48, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
- I will also agree with the above points, and bring to attention another aspect of his behavior too.
- If you check the log of the Agal article here [85], you can see that a few days ago, he started swapping between multiple different IP addresses (with the same commenting style) to change the same article. Not sure if that's disallowed or not, but it seems suspect to me, especially since it's seemed to result in temporary protection of said article [86]. -- Qahramani44 (talk) 03:54, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
- The reported user is a WP:NOTHERE and WP:BATTLEGROUND case. His edit history shows non-stop edit warring, ignoring other editors' messages and edit summaries, IP-hopping, and nationalistic rants. He even deleted and manipulated this report.[87] So I support indefinite block for him. --Wario-Man (talk) 08:48, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

This user even reverted the information on naming of the Gulf,which was a Middle Persian sasanian text with reliable sources wich Names the Gulf, Arabian Gulf
User:HistoryofIran removed this Information
How ever one of the oldest documented refrence to Gulf may be the one mentioned in Middle Persian text on geography "Šahrestānīhā ī Ērānšahr" (literally "The Provincial Capitals of Iran"), which is a source of historical records concerning names of the Sasanian kings as the builder of the various cities, It is in this Persian document that sasanias make the unique reference to gulf as "Daryay Taziyan" (In Persian : دریای تازیان) which literally means "Arabian Gulf or The Gulf of The Arabs"[1][2]
Now what was wrong with this information with reliable source that user User:HistoryofIran removed it from Persian Gulf article, This is clear act of abusing of Wikipedia meant to Boycott other opinions and POV pushes
