Diff of ANEW notice posted to user's talk page: [8]

Comments: User adding unreferenced content and WP:OR. No response to any warnings in talk page or edit summaries and persisted on reverting without comment. Qiushufang (talk) 05:36, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Note that in the below comments by the user, they do not address the fact that none of their additions are backed up by sources. Nor did they respond to any of the previous warning on their talk page prior to this report, including edit warring, unconstructive editing, copyviolations, and unsourced content. I see now that this is not the first time and they habitually add unsourced content and OR but they usually let it go when reverted. ex. [9] [10] [11] [12]. Reverts at Yakuts adding unsourced content without comment: [13] [14] [15] Qiushufang (talk) 07:21, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

This is not the user's first encounter with requests for sources. See Talk:Turkic_languages#Tatar_in_Romania, where source attribution was explained to them. Here they explained that they kept reverting because the other side did not explain why they were reverted. Yet at Mirza Muhammad Haidar Dughlat, I explicitly stated content not found in source multiple times ([16] [17]) without comment from the user in each of their following reverts. Qiushufang (talk) 07:52, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

You are accusing me of two very different cases: 1. With regard to Romanian Tatars, that was a wholly different issue which was settled constructively, so no need to cherry-pick from past cases. Yokubjon Juraev (talk) 07:59, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

2. With regard to sources, I was only correcting erroneous information and/or expanding on some very briefly related historical facts. All of those expansions are taken from those same sources indicated in the references. I would have added references if I were taking my info from different sources not indicated in the References/Sources. Yokubjon Juraev (talk) 08:04, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Wiki policy on WP:CITE and WP:VERIFY requires inline citations for material that is challenged or likely to be challenged. I could not find the additions in the pre-existing sources here. The WP:BURDEN is on the user (you) adding the material to provide inline citations that directly support the added material. Multiple users have reverted you based on this policy and no adequate response, in the form of a source, page number, or quotation has ever been provided. Qiushufang (talk) 09:46, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Ok, I understood you. I will add the corresponding reference. Yokubjon Juraev (talk) 11:55, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

I think I have added all the necessary sources to Mirza Muhammad Haidar Dughlat page. All other fixes are related to typos. Let me know if something is missing. Yokubjon Juraev (talk) 14:44, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

The only source added so far has been from a primary source. According to WP:PTS, Wikipedia should be based primarily on secondary sources as I have described here, the part about rarefied air seems to be WP:OR. The entire section here you added to has no citations at all and the parts added about East Turkistan seem particularly dubious considering the name was not used until the 19th century. Qiushufang (talk) 14:53, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

I am very much appalled by user @Qiushufang’s bahaviour. I have corrected several typos and historically erroneous material in Yarkent Khanate and Mirza Muhammad Haidar Dughlat pages. These two pages include serious mistakes. Whenever I correct them @Qiushufang is reverting them under the pretext of unsourced material. The user is persisting in his/her behavior. For example, in Yarkent Khanate page, the above mentioned user is erasing the native Uyghur name (Sai’diyya, transliterated from Arabic script) of the khanate and moving to upper position the chinese variant. Moreover, after my adding of translated material from Arabic script and adding proper links, that material and the links are also being reverted unreasonably. It appears that @Qiushufang doesn’t research the topics before deciding whether to revert. Furthermore in another page (Xiongnu), that user has reverted my addition commenting that that is unnecessary addition. I wonder how the user decides upon unnecessity of an entry. Yokubjon Juraev (talk) 05:54, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

In short, Whenever I correct errors @Qiushufang accuses me of unsourced addition Yokubjon Juraev (talk) 06:23, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

The claim by Yokubjon Juraev that they are merely expanding by adding information that is already in the references is false. I took me a while to find the right page (the citation in the article is incorrect and the article text already takes liberties with the source), but this edit, that information is not found in the source. Drmies (talk) 14:52, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

I have rolled back your edits: you are indeed edit warring, and the information you are adding is unsourced. If you revert again, you may find yourself blocked--possibly indefinitely, since you seem to have a history of edit warring and/or adding unverified info. Drmies (talk) 14:55, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

I have included all the sources for the part. Take a closer look. That was from a primary source. Yokubjon Juraev (talk) 14:57, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Nonsense. There are no "climactic condition" in Bell's book, or dying horses, or whatever. I don't know what you mean with primary sources, and at any rate that would be inappropriate. The stuff you added is supposed to be verified by Bell, because that is how footnotes work; there comes a time when you can perhaps choose whether WP:CIR or WP:EW applies. Drmies (talk) 15:05, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Well you are also engaging in nonsense, you have reverted my typo fixes. Regarding the death of horses and other weather/climactic conditions, I see that you haven’t read the source. Yokubjon Juraev (talk) 15:14, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Each of these removes the information that the WHO is potentially reclassifying aspartame into a different hazard category, i.e., possibly carcinogenic. The second edit has been erased, but I read it before that time and it stated that the WHO was in the process of considering reclassifying aspartame, mentioning the committees involved.

Less relevant is that there are also other reverts, many of much I strongly support or do not seem to be edit warring, that have the same theme of removing references to aspartame causing cancer:

1. here,
2. here,
3. here,

I don't have a problem with these edits/agree with most of them, but they are useful for context.

Diff of ANEW notice posted to user's talk page: I don't think there was a violation so I didn't post it. I can if needed.

Comments:

Three of the first five reverts in "Diffs of the user's reverts" occurred within a ~12-hour time period. I tried to start a conversation on the talk page/user page instead of bringing this here. I would like guidance on what to do and how to proceed from here. I searched the archive and it looks like Zefr has a tendency to revert content even after other editors repeatedly include it, and has had troubles with edit warring. Because of this, I believe that if I, or another user, happen to add the WHO information, Zefr will likely revert it which might then break a rule. To avoid this, I'm preemptively asking what to do. In the meantime, I will restore the POV tag added by a previous editor and/or the other significant viewpoints tag.

Let me know if there is a different noticeboard or page that is better suited for this, or if I've made a mistake in my own editing. Chamaemelum (talk) 03:52, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Comments:
I want to start with two admissions. First, when @100.36.106.199: made their first change, I saw this block made by @Bbb23: and figured I was dealing with a vandal and didn't make a lot of effort to resolve this. Second, I made four reverts today. That said ... the user seems to be on a mission to modify "aggressive archiving". The user is driving an edit war, and to quote our ip friend, "why don't you report me and see how it goes?" I am making this report. --evrik ^(talk) 03:43, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

• Note Because of the IP's pblock, they cannot comment here. Bbb23 (talk) 13:21, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

  IP blocked for one year by ToBeFree.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:25, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

  nah, give me a moment please ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:26, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

  I have undone that and restored your original block settings. Looking at what led to the current partial block and why we're now here on this noticeboard made me jump to the conclusion that 100.36.106.199 primarily disruptively pushes unnecessary meta contributions against others' concerns. That's not the case, though. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:36, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

Evrik, this is something rarely discussed on the edit warring noticeboard because in 99% of the cases, the administrative position is "edit warring is disruptive even if you're right" and just blocking those engaging in it independently of their arguments. If I applied that principle here, you both would now be partially blocked from... editing a talk page... to prevent further edit warring about its archival settings.

Do we really need that? Could what 100.36.106.199 wrote perhaps simply be correct? Why did you revert at all? The new archival settings are close to the default provided by Help:Archiving_a_talk_page#Sequentially_numbered_archives; is there a specific reason why you want different ones? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:41, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

I looked at the history of edits made by the IP, and the block, and surmised that the person behind the edits was acting in a disruptive manner. Also, the editor is being rather aggressive with their edit summaries. All in all, I care less about the changes made then there’s somebody hiding behind the IP, and being disruptive. --evrik ^(talk) 02:10, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Evrik, "hiding behind the IP" is an oxymoron or at least a meaningless statement, not something you can genuinely complain about with such a static IP address that stays the same even through a namespace-wide block. If you suspect sockpuppetry, create an investigation at WP:SPI with your evidence.

I specifically find it confusing that you chose to keep reverting in response to Special:Diff/1162674117 without providing a reason for your preferred revision and – if I understand your message correctly – without even preferring your preferred revision. (?!)

Will you stop, provide a proper reason or need a block? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 02:43, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

(That talk page aside, the best place to seek a community consensus about someone's general behavior being disruptive is WP:ANI, but opening an ANI thread without evidence of actual issues doesn't work either. If the archive parameter changes were an actual issue, you should be able to explain where in Special:Diff/1162674117 that issue could be found.) ~ ToBeFree (talk) 03:11, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

I guess I'll close this as stale with the expectation that Evrik won't continue reverting without even providing a reason. I understand the general idea behind the report – the quickly-undone block might illustrate similar thoughts – but my position has changed since. Yours can too. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:25, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Two editors, Anonymous345123 and Filetime, are engaged in an edit war at Juris Doctor. Neither has attempted to communicate with the other except for some kind of sockpuppetry warning that Filetime left on Anonymous345123's User talk page (which I subsequently removed because Filetime hasn't opened an SPI investigation). I am only reporting Anonymous345123 and not Filetime because they have continued edit warring after being warned. I further acknowledge that Anonymous345123 has only made three reversions and thus has not technically violated 3RR but the edit warring is unambiguous and persistent despite a clear warning and an open section in the article's Talk page explicitly asking them to participate. ElKevbo (talk) 03:52, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

I should note I made the reversion before learning about the edit war warning -- I only saw the other user's reversion. Immediately after realizing it, I promptly communicated to the other user my reasons for the reversions. The other user has made absolutely no attempts to communicate with me, however. Anonymous345123 (talk) 03:56, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

Comments:

I maintain that all four edits removed a violation of the biographies of living persons policy (i.e., the depth of detail and juxtaposition of statements makes the claim, created via improper synthesis, undue). There is a consensus from a 2017 RfC that near-unanimously favors excluding the Erdős–Bacon number "mainly due to a lack of WP:RS covering it". This claim was re-added in May 2023 without the RS coverage necessary for a consensus change. Due to this, I was not only removing a BLP vio but also preserving an overwhelming consensus. I've asked Sundayclose, who acknowledged in 2021 that this consensus exists, to provide RS that "highlight [the number] as uniquely meaningful and correlate it to a specific project". They never did. KyleJoan^talk 07:05, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

• Result: Both User:Sundayclose and User:KyleJoan are warned. Either may be blocked if they add or remove material about the Erdos-Bacon number without getting a prior consensus for their change on the article talk page. People agree that restoring this material is against a prior RfC from 2017. Both Sundayclose and KyleJoan were edit warring on this article but KyleJoan claims to have a BLP justification. Recall that fixing WP:UNDUE weight does not grant you an exemption under WP:NOT3RR. This actress is surely not defamed by mention of her Erdos number, whether the number is correct or not. Removing the number is not an emergency that calls for immediate action. This dispute is a plain old edit war. EdJohnston (talk) 03:07, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

Both editors blocked from the article for the remainder of the 2-week partial block from CBS Broadcast Center they were already under. Since that block expires tomorrow (North American EDT), it is shorter and less extensive than would have been imposed had no block been in place. Once again, this is because of the software ... we cannot layer (or toll as I would also like to be able to do) a short sitewide block over a longer partial block, or even partial blocks on two separate pages (i.e., different two-week periods, say), so this is the only thing I can do without upsetting the existing block.

Declined Ordinarily I'd consider this blockable even though the fourth revert happened just outside 24 hours. However, the above comment and Gamo having moved on to other articles mitigates against that. But if it resumes, any admin may take any action they see fit without consulting me. @Gamowebbed:, I would also remind you that "proper sourcing", since it is always so debatable, is not by itself an accepted reason to revert without limit ... only where it relates to a living person.

single purpose account who does nothing else than genre changes and will go to war with anyone who dares to revert. previously blocked already FMSky (talk) 21:14, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

But I'm still right and you can check this out SpaceHelmetX1 (talk) 21:16, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

The reported user User:SpaceHelmetX1 has engaged in long term genre warring. They were previously blocked 24h on June 24 by User:Daniel Case. Since their pattern of genre warring continues (with no usage of article talk pages) I think it is time for another block of SpaceHelmetX1. It is not much of a defense for them to say (above) "I'm still right". Here at the edit warring noticeboard everybody always thinks they are right. Welcome to the club! EdJohnston (talk) 01:11, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Most of my edits are rollbacks, rollbacks of unsourced content added by IPs. And about the mess that got me here, I'll try to explain calmly what my intention was: Initially, I reverted an IP genre change, right? Soon, the other user reverted my edit, so I provided an extra sourced material, for 2 of the 3 genres present in the infobox, thus getting 2 sources for two different genres using as a ref a website usually used by the other user who wants to block me... This is the order: (2), (2) and (1). SpaceHelmetX1 (talk) 01:45, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

• Blocked – 48 hours. These defenses don't make sense. Check out WP:NOT3RR and see if it allows you to revert IPs without penalty, or if it gives you any special tolerance for rollbacks. Though elsewhere we do have special mention of genre warring. If controversial genres need to be changed, it should be done by agreement. EdJohnston (talk) 12:25, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

User committed edit warring on article Sikh Empire, removing existing information and source and even though he is aware of edit warring policy. User reverted 4 times in a span of 24 hrs going against multiple editors and without starting a discussion on a talk page to try to resolve the dispute. User is not new to edit warring.208.184.20.226 (talk) 18:23, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Defense:The first diff which IP has provided[61] is not a revert; while in the other two the IPs (which I suspect are same as that of the reporter) clearly violated WP:HONORIFICS by adding them after the name of certain figures. Multiple editors restored the pre-IP disruption version[62] and ultimately page got protected by Ponyo[63] due to unsourced additions by the IP.

As the page history shows, the restoring was only due to the IP vandalism and was not in any case, edit warring. Sutyarashi (talk) 18:36, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

• User's comment about reverting due to IP was adding WP:HONORIFICS is blatant lie. The IP 50.*.*.* looks to have actually removed the honorifics as can be seen here [64]. And Sutyarashi reverted the change with misleading description.208.184.20.226 (talk) 18:42, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

I've blocked the IP for block evasion (see User talk:73.236.210.215.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 18:47, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks @Ponyo! Sutyarashi (talk) 18:53, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

The IP managed to remove only a few honorifics, there were still many more left out added by other IPs that's why the page was restored to the last pre-disruption version. There is also nothing misleading in the edit summaries or "blatant lie"; everything was explained.

The IP vandalism was the reason that the page ultimately got protected. Sutyarashi (talk) 18:52, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

• Talk:Stockton Rush#Unlicensed Engineer

Comments:

Hr5accsaz is a single-purpose account, focused solely on getting Wikipedia to say that Stockton Rush was not an engineer. Despite a lengthy section on the talk page where they insisted that someone needed to provide proof of Rush's engineering licence, which no one agreed was necessary, they continue to remove the word engineer from Rush's article. – bradv 01:34, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

The latest edit, rather than removing the word "engineer", changes it to "unlicensed engineer". This is technically even worse, as there are no sources that call him an unlicensed engineer, but many that call him an engineer. Hr5accsaz, however, holds to a rather unique definition of the word engineer that no one else appears to share, and isn't willing to accept either the sources or the consensus of the other editors. – bradv 01:48, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

Given that the reverts and BLP violations are ongoing and this hasn't received attention from an uninvolved admin, I've reported this at AIV in hopes of getting some eyes on this. — SamX [talk · contribs] 04:21, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

They're clearly WP:NOTHERE—their eight reverts today have included edit summaries and changes that are intended to be disruptive and targeted at other editors (not readers in general). May be worth noting their behavior on the Talk page was also disruptive, as anyone looking at the linked discussion can see; they proceeded to bludgeon every editor who disagreed with them and even began putting comments about it in other unrelated discussions on the talk page (e.g. [65], see collapsed section in "Occupation" on the same page).

Well, it's not within a 24-hour period, but it's during the same period. There is an ongoing discussion, which Jadidjw disregards by continuing their edit warring (WP:CONSENSUS and WP:ONUS). I've lost count on how many times there have been attempts to remove/decrease the Mongol component of the Hazaras in that article. Speaking of which, their behaviour is extremely similar to that of past socks, I'll be filing an SPI in a bit if someone is interested Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Iampharzad. --HistoryofIran (talk) 23:36, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Please do not link my account with another account. I don't know what's wrong with my editing, maybe it doesn't match your mood and desire. Jadidjw (talk) 23:53, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

That edit where I added information and sources was not an edit war.

Also, I did not remove the Mongolian component of Hazaras, but corrected it accurately and in detail. Jadidjw (talk) 00:39, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

Comments:
Carter00000 has been edit warring multiple times with multiple editors on the current events portal in recent times. Most notably on June 26 but again on July 5. He keeps citing WP:ONUS and then using that to remove whatever he wants without regard for others opinions, and ignores WP:PRESERVE. I've been editing the portal now for nine years and he's one of the most prolific edit warring editors I've encountered. I know he's edit war'd with other users as well such as User:IJBall. It's really just a pattern of behaviour which is tantamount to my way or the highway on the current events portal. Even after a discussion was started on the talk page that clearly established consensus he continued reverting it citing WP:ONUS again, making the discussion he started pointless. I don't see him changing this behaviour so I would recommend a block on the current events portal. GWA88 (talk) 12:18, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

I would also note that Carter00000 appears to have been involved in historical edit war disputes such as here in June 2022 as well as accusations of harassment from another user who has edited the portal in December 2022. GWA88 (talk) 19:10, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

On the June 2022 diff, I note that I did edit war, but did not exceed 3RR. That being said, edit warring does not require a user to exceed 3RR. I only started editing WP substantively in June 2022 and this was the first time I had a content dispute with other editors. While my conduct was admittedly not up to standard, I think it being my first time, is understandable to an extent.

On the December 2022 diff, I'd note that the allegations evidently unwarranted, given that the user withdrew the allegations just fifteen days later. I would like to express my concern that you presented this as evidence against me. As a long-term contributor to Portal:Current events, you are well aware that this user has disputed the portal over a long period, and my efforts to stop that disruption. You yourself have presented evidence at a ANI filing previously on this user, started by myself.

As a regular contributor to the portal, you are one of those who understands this issue the most, and has benefitted the most from the reduction of disruption from the user. For you to now come here and present these efforts as misconduct on my part is intentionally misleading and could be considered to be casting aspersions.

In closing, I note that the links which you have presented seem to link directly to the editing function, I'm not sure how you managed to do that. After nine years on WP, linking properly should not be a issue for you. Carter00000 (talk) 10:13, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

Firstly, please stop templating the regulars. Secondly, it's not battleground behaviour, I'm trying to establish a pattern of behaviour here, and yes that means looking through your past disputes. I'm sure you do make a lot of good faith edits but recently I haven't seen that. In nine years of editing the portal, I've had content disputes for sure but I've never been warned for edit warring until you left me a warning, which I didn't even break the 3RR. Finally, I did accidentally link to the editing function as you pointed out, I was rushing the edit as I had to go out and do something. I apologize. Mistakes happen. GWA88 (talk) 17:42, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

WP:DTTR is a essay, which is not WP:PAG. I also don't agree with the sprit which you have quoted this guideline. I have every right to warn you, and this right is not diminished simply because you have been on WP longer then me.

On "I'm sure you do make a lot of good faith edits but recently I haven't seen that" you seem to accusing me of making bad faith edits. Please note that making allegations of bad faith edits on WP is a serious action which requires evidence, otherwise it is simply casting aspersions. Carter00000 (talk) 18:01, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

I admit that my conduct on June 26 was unacceptable. I went past 3RR, and could have rightly been blocked. However, I did stop edit warring and apologized to those I edit warred with. As a sign of good faith, I added a section to the material to increase its notability [88], my original removal being based on concerns on whether the entry met the notability standard for inclusion.

I would like to note that I started the discussion for that entry [89], and attempted to discuss the notability of the material, based on the information presented in the sources [90]. While I was overruled 3-1, I note it was not a consensus.

Consensus is not a vote. Consensus is formed after through discussion of the content and based on the strength of the arguments. This did not happen here, as none of the participants actually engaged in the discussion, but simply forced the matter through, refusing to discuss the matter further [91]. It was frustration at this which led me to revert beyond 3RR. Carter00000 (talk) 12:46, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

"This did not happen here, as none of the participants actually eneged in the discussion, but simply forced the matter through, refusing to discuss the matter further.". Well, that just absolutely didn't happen. I argued for its inclusion based on its international coverage and the context of the story within the wider Ukrainian counteroffensive happening at the time. As did, @IJBall while @The Kip noted that previous captures of villages/towns have been included before. How is that "forcing the matter through"? We made our arguments and you just rejected them because you assume your opinion is the right one. And while you did apologize on this occasion, you have continued edit warring and continuing the same behaviour on the portal. GWA88 (talk) 12:59, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

I think any reasonable person would agree that making a single round of replies to a person's initial opening argument, then moving straight to restoring [92] the entry, without even waiting for a reply, would not be considered to be a discussion. Carter00000 (talk) 13:14, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Yes. it is a discussion. It's also ironic when you say you were frustrated at the content being restored without discussing the matter further because you do exactly the same thing when you revert content. You just revert then say "see talk page" in the edit summary ect.. GWA88 (talk) 13:21, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Yes, because WP:ONUS states that it is your responsibility for achieving consensus for inclusion. The fact that I have to start the talk page discussion and direct you to it, is already contrary to policy. It should have been you who started the talk page discussion, being the one who first added the entry. Carter00000 (talk) 13:25, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Ridiculous. So you have to start a discussion on the talk page for everything you post on the current events portal? You were the only one with an issue with those highlighted stories. Anyway, I have made my argument. You have been edit warring, awkward and disruptive on multiple occasions on the current events portal. I will now leave this matter to the administrators. GWA88 (talk) 13:29, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Please do not make straw-man arguments. I've only said that you should be the one to open the discussion if you additions are opposed. I have not said that you need to start a discussion for everything you post. Carter00000 (talk) 13:34, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

I stand by my application of WP:ONUS. The responsibility for achieving consensus for inclusion is on those seeking to include disputed content. This basic policy is something that GWA88 does not seem to understand, despite his tenure editing for nine years. In fact, GWA88 has at times asserted [93], [94], [95], that it is consensus for removal of information which is needed, which is simply not WP:PAG.

I note that I've also had to explain to GWA88 what WP:NOCONSENSUS is today [96], another basic concept, his interpretation being incorrect. Previously, I also explained WP:PRESERVE [97], noting that while some issues can be fixed, a lack of notability of an entry is a violation of core WP policies, and cannot simply be fixed, per WP:CANTFIX. Notability is again a core concept, a concept which GWA88 does not seem to fully understand.

GWA88 frequently reverts those who remove his additions to the portal [98], without starting a discussion. This is edit warring. Each time I've had a content disagreement with GWA88, I have had to be one to start the discussion on the talk page [99], [100], [101]. In this discussion, I made an effort to compromise [102]. It is GWA88's behavior, who constantly reverts other editors with no effort to start a talk page discussion, despite WP:ONUS, which is tantamount to my way or the highway.

Taking into account the WP:CIR, WP:BATTLEGROUND & WP:IDHT issues illustrated above, I feel that it is GWA88 who may benefit from a block. Carter00000 (talk) 14:05, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Of course I don't treat Wikipedia like a battleground. On the contrary, I'll admit when I'm wrong. For example, on Portal:Current events/2023 April 19 I got it wrong and admitted it here [103] as soon as the story was corrected. Nice try at deflecting away from your own bad behaviour on the current events portal though. GWA88 (talk) 18:59, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Looking at the diff you have presented, it seems there is no difference to those cases I have presented previously.

You posted an entry, and was reverted by a second editor. You immediately reverted that revert without starting a discussion, as is your responsibility per WP:ONUS. Like each of cases I have presented, the reverting user had to come to you and start the discussion, when it should have been the other way round.

I also find this line "Nice try at deflecting away from your own bad behaviour on the current events portal though" to be quite interesting. I think it is you who is now trying to deflect attention from your own behavior, going through my talk page and looking for anything that will stick, including non-edit war related allegations like "harassment" , especially when you know it's not true. I note these actions also constitute WP:BATTLEGROUND behavior. Carter00000 (talk) 11:01, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

I also note that this part of what GWA88 has written "I've been editing the portal now for nine years and he's one of the most prolific edit warring editors I've encountered. I know he's edit war'd with other users as well such as User:IJBall" seems to be casting WP:ASPERSIONS. No evidence or diffs have been provided for his statements. I further note that I have not previously edit warred with IJball, having only encountered the editor briefly on this Portal and one other page. Carter00000 (talk) 14:11, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

I've self-reverted and re-added the entry [104] which was the focus of the content dispute for July 5, given the through and convincing rationale [105] put forward by a third editor. Carter00000 (talk) 15:14, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

I would support, at the very last, a partial block from portal-related pages, per GWA88, and, if necessary, a sitewide block. I only encountered this user the other day when they were, for lack of a better word, harassing IJBall with warnings and violating WP:DTTR and then violated DTTR again and templated me with a bogus final warning—yeah, straight to a final warning. I also find it hypocritical to report IJBall or any user for alleged edit warring, which I didn't see anything that technically violated either 3RR or EW, when from what I've seen and what GWA88 has said above, this user has a history of edit warring, so dragging another user to ANEW over some supposed technical violation seems to me like it was just done out of spite. People who have an active history of edit warring shouldn't be reporting others for allegedly doing the same thing. I know there's no actual guideline or policy against it, I just don't think it's a good idea. Amaury • 17:52, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

As I've mentioned in my reply to GWA88 above, WP:DTTR is a essay, which is not WP:PAG. Similarly, I don't agree with the sprit which you have quoted this guideline. I have every right to warn any user which I deem fit, and this right is not diminished simply because a user has been on WP longer then me.

Referring to the diff you have presented, let's look at the facts. I posted a message on IJball's talk page warning against making personal attacks, which is clearly not harassment, but a legitimate warning made in good faith. You reverted this message twice [106], [107], falsely claiming the message was illegitimate. I note that you also quoted WP:DTTR, when I didn't actually use a template. Given that I'd reverted you twice and warned you in the edit summaries, I posted a warning to your page. I further note that IJball has now been blocked, in part due to the personal attacks which I warned him for.

I want to reiterate that difference in tenure does not prevent me from warning or talking to another editor. I found you reverts to be a clear disruption of conflict resolution process, hence my warning. Given your extensive block log, I would say this attitude of simply blocking a less senior users attempts at conflict resolution to be potentially be grounds for further blocking.

I further note that you've accused me of having "a history of edit warring" and "dragging another user to ANEW over some supposed technical violation seems to me like it was just done out of spite. Both of these accusations are simply casting aspersions. Additionally, saying "I also find it hypocritical to report IJBall or any user for alleged edit warring, which I didn't see anything that technically violated either 3RR or EW" seems to be WP:IDHT, when the user has actually been blocked for the violation. Carter00000 (talk) 18:21, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

I note that GWA88 has again reverted an removal of an entry he has made, without any attempts at starting a discussion per WP:ONUS, despite the discussions over the past few days. Carter00000 (talk) 18:23, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

First, it doesn't matter whether a page is an essay or not. It doesn't give you the right to go around slapping warnings on people's talk pages just because you don't agree with them. Some things are also just common sense, whether here on Wikipedia or outside in the world. We don't need everything written out to the nth degree, as per WP:CREEP. And even without DTTR, your warnings were completely inappropriate. But let's put DTTR aside for a moment. Let's say your warnings were appropriate, which they weren't. You don't escalate straight to a level 4 warning; instead, you should have started out with a general note. Second, I personally don't think the block was warranted to begin with, nor do I agree with the rationale given for the block, especially considering he wasn't given the chance to respond to the ANEW report, but IJBall was not blocked for personal attacks. Factually speaking, according to the block log, he was blocked for edit warring and incivility in edit summaries, and it should be noted that incivility and personal attacks are not the same thing. He was also blocked for 31 hours. IJBall is the one who requested an indefinite block. Third, my block log here is irrelevant. Like GWA88, I have made my own mistakes and was even blocked indefinitely at one point, but I don't have an active history or pattern of it. You, on the other hand, appear to. Amaury • 18:51, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

I find it interesting Carter00000 accuses me of WP:BATTLEGROUND behavior because I brought up his previous disputes (as to establish a pattern of behaviour) but he has no issue with bringing up your block log to discredit you, and most of those blocks were over a decade ago. GWA88 (talk) 19:05, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

Come on. I included my rationale for its inclusion in the edit summary, as you can see [108]. That's always been standard procedure on the Current Events portal. GWA88 (talk) 18:56, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

Agreed. It seems that anyone they disagree with gets accused of casting aspersions or personal attacks. In other words, they have no issue accusing other users of things, but if someone else says something about them that can be taken negatively, such as them edit warring, they accuse those people of making personal attacks or casting aspersions. Amaury • 20:19, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

I should note that the reported party here has gone to the talk pages of users Beeblebrox and NinjaRobotPirate in an attempt to have some sort of action taken against me. That, in my opinion, seems to be some type of WP:CANVASSING, especially considering I never violated anything. Amaury • 19:27, 9 July 2023 (UTC)

Okay, I've watched this for long enough. The usual resolution would have been marking this report as stale and pointing to WP:ANI in case there are long-term behavioral issues to be discussed. This noticeboard is "for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule" and it would have been easy to archive this without action. Both Carter00000's and GWA88's demonstrated unwillingness or inability to disengage from the conflict seem to require a closure that goes further than just warning both, though: Words failed above already.

Both editors blocked – for a period of 2 weeks from editing pages in the Portal namespace.

I strongly encourage Carter00000 and GWA88 to self-impose the following restriction: If something you add is reverted, seek a consensus and try to convince others to re-add it for you through pure discussion, not a single revert. And if something you revert is re-added, try to convince others to re-remove it by starting a discussion on the talk page yourself. If a legitimate report about edit warring in the Portal namespace reoccurs in the near future, the next administrative step won't be limited to two weeks. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:36, 9 July 2023 (UTC)

Obviously a single-purpose account attempting to whitewash the article in question in this report. Multiple reliable sources seem to indeed call TruNews a fake news website, but it seems like Jazz0005 doesn't want to understand that. LilianaUwU ^{(talk / contributions)} 03:25, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

Multiple reliable sources show that it's a news website, what sources say that "They are intentionally posting fake news and TruNews is 100% sure that all they post is fake". TruNews doesn't believe their news is fake, for it to be a fake news website they have to post news that is deliberately fake. The most reliable source is their website itself "https://www.trunews.com/", they don't present themselves as a hoax website in any way other than what other sources are saying.

The IP user is back to adding his edits without bothering to start a discussion. They've been making such disruptive edits without consensus at multiple. Each time they're reverted by any user they just put their edit back. I've been unable to keep track of all of their edits since they just keep restoring them on multiple pages.

The past two times I complained and their IP range was blocked [137] [138], they didn't try to discuss after the block expired. The IP is dynamic so trying to talk to them on the IP seems useless, regardless I've sent a warning on one of their IP talk pages and have recently opened a discussion at one of the articles [139].

I've posted a talk message to seek consensus for their edits on their talk page just today too a few minutes after they restored their edits. [140]. But I doubt they'll be responding to messages or stop after short blocks, please at least consider placing a 6 months block on their anon editing so they're forced to discuss.

• Blocked - 2 weeks to Special:Contributions/2600:4040:2800::/38. EdJohnston (talk) 17:36, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

Thank you EdJohnston. Although that might not be sufficient, it's better than nothing and I hope they will be forced to discuss.

They've now been told to discuss and warned on their talk page within a few minutes of making their edits, have been blocked with links to the complaints explaining why, and an article discussion has been opened for them.

If the user instead goes right back to restoring their edits without discussing or seeking a consensus after the block expires, I hope the block can be made lengthier. Linkin Prankster (talk) 18:33, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

A /38 is a wide range and we cannot block it for a long time, since it might interfere with other editors who are working in good faith. Perhaps you can work out a smaller range that would also do the job. EdJohnston (talk) 21:19, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

This user as ignored requests to leave WP:STATUSQUO material during a dispute, and has consistently reverted edits on this page during a discussion (which is occurring at Talk:List of Marvel Cinematic Universe television series#Helstrom). They also have been performing similar edits/warring at Adventure into Fear (planned franchise), again against using discussions to resolve the dispute (that discussion is occurring at Talk:Adventure into Fear (franchise)#Reviving potential merger into Helstrom. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:13, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Diffs for Adventure into Fear: 1, 2, 3, 4. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:16, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

It can be said that Adventure into Fear’s changes are based on the status quo that was proposed (and accepted) on Talk:Helstrom (TV series) after consensus was reached on how to treat the state of its relationship to the MCU. ChimaFan12 (talk) 16:23, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

The material you wanted added, was adjusted by myself here to better integrate it into the article. You continued to revert/war after that on that article. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:49, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

I added it to the lead because it is important for clarification. Considering the outdated MCU status is included in the lead, the current also belongs there. You are removing it simply because you deem it unnecessary, and it’s a clear example of Wikipedia:Ownership of content, points 1-3. ChimaFan12 (talk) 16:52, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

the material was not outright removed from the lead, but moved to a more natural spot in the second paragraph (as seen in the diff I linked) to satisfy WP:LEADCITE and then sourced and added to the body. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:08, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Okay, I can abide by that being there. I can’t abide by the rest of my edits to the body (including referring to the rightly-named Defenders Saga series as such, and removing redundancies from the development section) being reverted out of hand. ChimaFan12 (talk) 17:14, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

I admit my previous edits (which were all well-sourced and in good faith) may have become part of an edit war. However, I have since read the rules regarding the 3RR and have been obliging by them. The edit I am being reported for today was nearly 2 days after the previous one and after discussion on the talk page went dry. I admit to being frustrated at the engagement on the talk page appearing to be reliant on inconsistent reasoning that seems conveniently designed to stop any progress. For instance, I make an edit in the lead paragraph of the Adventure into Fear to add clarification that was based on the consensus we’d reached on Talk:Helstrom (TV series) under the RFC (show was allowed to be acknowledged as developed for the MCU but by release it was no longer considered to be connected) and it’s constantly reverted, with editors feigning redundancy, yet on Adventure into Fear (franchise), when I literally just remove things in one section that have already been stated in that section, I’m told off for “changing the article drastically”. The discussion we’re having is not sustainable and nobody is showing up to it in good faith. There are Wikipedia:Ownership of content concerns regarding how a select few users, including Favre, are treating any changes that are well-sourced and based on fact. The unfortunate effect is that progress is not allowed to happen as a result. It’s too soon for me to open RFCs on the article, but we really need intervention. ChimaFan12 (talk) 16:21, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Also, I have to explain the consecutive edits at 22:06, 22:07, and 22:10 on 10 July. This is an issue that has only shown up twice at most, but as I am on mobile it seems I had technical difficulties with the page. I accidentally reverted my own edit at 22:07, and restored it at 22:10. No bad faith or edit warring was intended. The only definitive time I can say edit warring transpired was 11 July when myself and the other editors each reverted edits more than 3 times, and I apologize. Again, this is based on confusion over what the WP:STATUSQUO is for these articles based on previous consensus. ChimaFan12 (talk) 16:30, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Despite the claims of certain editors’, it is acknowledged here here following my proposal that consensus had been reached. The only issue at the time (per Infinite Nexus) was that the way I was implementing the changes without adding sources to the exact edits at the time (they acknowledged the presence of the sources on the talk page), at which time I thanked them and took a pause on implementing them as I am predominantly a mobile user. The consensus we reached is still the consensus. ChimaFan12 (talk) 16:41, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

It should also be noted that on every talk page discussion I currently have the last message. The most recent of which was nearly 20 hours ago. This includes Template:Marvel Cinematic Universe, which was last engaged with on the Talk Page almost 48 hours ago. Favre did not attempt to continue in the discussion, yet almost promptly reverted my edit today (nearly two days after my last one on the page). This does not seem to be a situation where all parties are attempting to resolve the dispute, but rather to shut down any edits. ChimaFan12 (talk) 17:06, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the 3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria. And it seems to me that no one really has clean hands here. If this continues perhaps full protection for a few days while it gets worked out on the talk page is the best option.

This user repeatedly reverted my changes, to be exact they deleted the information that was correctly referenced in the T-90 article. Although I have repeatedly warned and also left a notice on their talk page that their source is invalid and unreliable and asked them to use the article's talk page to reach consensus, however they seem disinterested in discussion and intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Annh07 (talk) 02:25, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

• Annh07, why did you not open up talk page discussions on the particular article to discuss this issue? Also, the IP seems to be mentioning that you are using primary interviews of Ukrainian officials to write statements as facts within the said article. The particular edit that you have quoted here also somehow shows the same thing -- you are trying to re-insert a factual claim but the reference is an interview and some person's opinions. Please do respond on the logic behind this? Lourdes 06:08, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

  Content that the IP wants to remove was previously posted by a user on May 15, 2023 with the source. I checked their sources and other outside sources and the fact that some major newspapers also mentioned that some T-90s were destroyed or captured by Ukraine. However, I will make some minor edits to make the content more neutral as well as change the current reference with a more reputable source of statistics. Annh07 (talk) 08:36, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

• 31.5.165.140, your long-term style of edit warring will get you blocked (if you escape blocking right now, that would be fortunate). Please stop reverting. Please go to the talk page and discuss these issues. I understand your point of view but you simply cannot edit war. Read up on our dispute resolution process and follow that, and avoid edit warring at all costs. Thank you, Lourdes 06:08, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

• If only to not muddy the waters for the related ongoing ArbCom case, I won't act here, but my take is that
  1. Neither has violated 3RR, but both have edit-warred more broadly.
  2. Veverve's reverts are arguably exempt under WP:3RRNO #5 (per copyvio concerns raised on talk by AndyTheGrump) but also a very bad idea given the recent informal warnings by multiple arbitrators.
  3. PPP's conduct, however, seems inexcusable, especially given the recent revert in which they said discussing on talk wouldn't go anywhere.
• My recommendation would be a temp-siteblock for PPP and a long p-block for Veverve. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 18:32, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

You sent a warning. Then you opened an ANE 6 minutes later. I did not edit during those 6 minutes. What was the point of sending it, then?

I have explained at the talk page why your edits were not policy-compliant, but you have refused to listen to me. Instead, you belittled me and tried to explain that you had the right vision of the policy. You decided to state that you suspected talk page discussion with this guy.would be pointless, and was correct. You have also stated that me quoting policies was me clearly trying to mislead others by removing sentences from context, that I deliberately omitt[ed] the last word in the sentence, which constituted an use of exaggeration and deceit [which] is not acceptable. I even proposed a compromise, to which you responded by opening this ANE.

Also, sidenote, indeed putting a text online, even if you are the author, does not imply you have the publisher's approval to do so. But this was not my point in the disagreement. Veverve (talk) 18:40, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

• Tamzin oh, if it's so inexcusable, do act now. This reminds me how much I loathe this site, and these people. As for Veverve, you really are one arrogant POS. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PorkyPowerPeanut (talk • contribs) 19:17, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

• I would have considered partially blocking Veverve if the reverts hadn't removed links to a page that can be reasonably expected to violate copyrights. As this clearly and admittedly wasn't the reason for Veverve's reverts, I hope for them to feel rather blocked than just warned for edit warring as far as a non-block can cause that feeling. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:04, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

  @ToBeFree: ah, it is a content guideline. I tend to use "policy" interchangeably for policies, content guidelines, and MOS pages. Sorry, I will try to change this behaviour of mine. Veverve (talk) 20:11, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

  ToBeFree thanks for saving me the timesink of an ANI for NOTHERE and disruptive editing. In addition to everything else noted from Bath school disaster, including editwarring, after I mentioned to Porky on 5 July that some editors insert inoffensive spaces around ref names for eyesight reasons, they followed me to an article 90% authored by me, a week later, to do just that (remove spaces I had inserted). Poking, hounding, whatever ... small stuff, but editor NOTHERE. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:36, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

  Yup. I was rapidly forming a 'here to poke' opinion regarding PPP's behaviour at Metatron, and the 'how much I loathe this site, and these people' comment above seems to confirm it. I'd be extremely surprised if PPP was the new user they purport to be, rather than a returning one with a grudge over something-or-other. AndyTheGrump (talk) 21:31, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

  Yes, I had a similar thought. If I had a nickel for every truly new user who got into FAC drama before hitting 500 edits, I reckon I'd have about 0¢. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 01:22, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Filetime has claimed that the editor with whom they are edit warring - an editor who stopped edit-warring after being warned over a week ago - is a sockpuppet. They have not provided substantive evidence or, more importantly, opened an investigation. ElKevbo (talk) 21:44, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the 3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria. This seems like it would be better discussed at other fora. Am I mistaken, or is this not the first time edit-warring by these two has been reported here?

Comments:

This is an instance of someone pushing a political/cultural viewpoint and changing the name of an event/details to make it more inflammatory without WP:CONSENSUS to do so in violation of WP:NPOV, WP:MOS, etc. The general information contained here has been in place for over a decade. If other reliable sources claim otherwise, it is certainly reasonable to include clarification that the account of the situation is disputed, but should be presented in a WP:NPOV and in a balanced manner. Bold claims "this is a massacre"/"none of these are reliable"/"this statement from a source is unreliable" (paraphrased) should be backed by clear evidence, not a POV push via edits alone to avoid discussion. Other users concur as well: [187]. Misleading edit summaries are a related issue and seem to be an intent to deceive or downplay (none of these are "minor" edits and the summaries do not reflect the contents of the actions taken, just samples): [188] [189] [190]. This dispute has spilled over into other pages (listed above)

It is notable that, despite differences of opinion here, I believe many of the ABT's contributions are a benefit. Most can easily be included and would support a more recent revision to incorporate such changes. But pushing "this is a massacre" and "Benner is wrong" based on the assessment of 1-2 academics vs the body of published knowledge on the subject is inappropriate; WP is not a forum to WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS. Such information can certainly be included as a "It is disputed..." or "Historians disagree..." caveat.

If ABT agrees to discuss such changes, I will be happy to rescind this request. Buffs (talk) 21:51, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Not long ago, myself and other editors experienced similar issues with this editor at the Huey Long article. Two examples I can think of include possible edit warring and a possible WP:TPO Violation. I might've been wrong, so I tried contacting an admin for guidance but there was no response, so I just stopped editing at that article altogether as a result. DN (talk) 22:46, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

This was posted one hour and twenty two minutes after their post on Talk:Lawrence Sullivan Ross#Battle_or_Massacre_+_associated_points. A number of the diffs are incorrect or not reverts. Please review the history of the articles mentioned, this user may have issues with WP:COMPETENCE regarding citations. Several of the claims made are misleading and/or outright inaccurate. This user has attempted to defend a demeaning misquote in all the articles mentioned. Unlike in the opposite case, proper sources have been added in my edits. The article titled "Battle of Pease River" had its title in quotes in the infobox for quite some time. It was known as the "Pease River fight" during its time and was later labeled a "Battle" sometime in the 20th century. None of my additions are violations of NPOV. Others have concurred with my edits to the pages mentioned as well, see Talk:Lawrence Sullivan Ross#Featured_status?, and I have been thanked for them (I've also been thanked in the past by the user who is the author of this report). They failed to mention their first message on my talk page, possibly because they were casting an WP:ASPERSION.

as for DN's claim, it is self-explanatory if you read Huey Long's talk page in its entirety Aquabluetesla (talk) 01:07, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

I've also been thanked in the past by the user who is the author of this report Indeed you have. Not all of your changes are problematic; a warning is just that (see also below). Let's discuss and build a consensus. Buffs (talk) 16:41, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

• Result: User:Aquabluetesla is warned to make no further reverts at any of the three articles until such time as they obtain a talk page consensus in their favor. Whether to describe the Battle of Pease River as a massacre needs agreement of editors and can't be decided unilaterally by Aquabluetesla. EdJohnston (talk) 04:10, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

  Such disruption continues:

  BPR

  • Other user's edit
  • ABT's reversion ~10 hours after warning

  LSR

  • ABT misleading tags
  • ABT's explanation in the edit summary doesn't really hold water

  In the interests of transparency, not all of these violate "no reverts" or adding "massacre", but demonstrate further disruptive editing since the warning. This is mostly for documentation purposes. Buffs (talk) 18:53, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

  This user is continuing with "quibbling", and selectively and incorrectly choosing diffs. This seems to be very personal & political to them (please review their essay on their user talk page). It is a far stretch to call my recent edits "disruptive". My edits are not "disruptive" nor have I made any 3RR violations. I changed what I originally added, the "Pease River Massacre" to the "Massacre of Pease River", because I was temporarily misled by an edit summary. I later acknowledged that it was a mistake and it was correct when I originally added it to the lead. The user will likely have their own report very soon if disruption such as this continues.

4 reverts within a window just over 24 hours. This was preceded by rapid-fire revert warring at Ali Pasha of Yanina yesterday [192] [193] [194] . Diff #2 is a rv of this addition [195], so it counts as an rv. Khirurg (talk) 14:27, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

• Comment: I did not break the three revert rule. I am improving the article when Khirurg continously changes my edits removing sourced material while adding unsourced original research. – Βατο (talk) 14:34, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

  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. It's apparent the addition of the material by Alexikoua was not to your liking, and you waited till the 24 hour window had just expired to revert it. Khirurg (talk) 14:39, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

  It is not a revert, I expanded the information providing relevant clarification according to the sources, and you immediately changed it adding original research, and making this report although I did not break the 3rr. – Βατο (talk) 14:43, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

  You completely undid [196] Alexikoua's edit [[197]] in the process of adding material, which counts as a revert. Read WP:REVERT. Khirurg (talk) 14:46, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

  With this edit 14:07, 14 July 2023 (UTC) I added content, and Alexikoua's information is still included, but expanded and clarified. In the process of editing some parts may change slightly, but even if it is counted as a revert, still, I did not break the three revert rule. – Βατο (talk) 15:01, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

  It's not "expanded" and "clarified", the meaning is completely changed. You didn't change it "slightly", you changed it almost completely. And you did it just minutes after the 24 hour window expired. Khirurg (talk) 15:13, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

  Even if this content addition 14:07, 14 July 2023 (UTC) is counted as a revert, it would be the second revert in 24 hours, not the fourth one. I have not made edit warring. – Βατο (talk) 15:30, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

• Comment by uninvolved editor Since the diffs above concern different parts of the article, it is not clear if all the diffs are reverts. The evaluation becomes even harder when one takes into account that Bato is not an edit-warrior. Indeed, Bato is one of those rare Balkan editors who do not have any sanctions in their logs after 8 years of editing. So my advice to both editors is to open RfCs to sort out their content disputes, instead of wasting time with pointless discussions of the kind "This was a revert, that was not a revert". Ktrimi991 (talk) 18:47, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

I took a closer look at the diffs. The second one is something between a revert and a non-revert. Bato made some rewording of the content. The first diff is a removal of Khirurg's original research. One can even go as far as to ask if Khirurg added the unsourced content there to make Bato revert and have a justification to report. Anyways, that is pointless to discuss and we should not make assumptions. In this situation I think that all what an admin should do is to remind people of WP:RFC. Blocking a long-term editor with a clear record for making an unclear number of reverts and for removing unsourced content is not a good idea. Ktrimi991 (talk) 19:29, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Comment by uninvolved editor: Agreed. AlexBachmann (talk) 20:08, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

• Comment by uninvolved editor Although it can be argued that not every single revert of Bατο are considered "full reverts", his edit warring at that article did break the 3RR. --Azor (talk). 21:33, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

• Comment: The report claims that this edit 14:07, 14 July 2023 (UTC) (diff #2) by Bato constitutes a revert of this edit which added the sentence while his subject population was by vast majority Greek. Bato didn't remove this sentence. It's inaccurate and potentially misleading - for editors who will not check each edit carefully - that the report claims something which the editor never did. He expanded it per the cited source and other publications: In central Greece and the Peloponnese Greek-speakers constituted the vast majority. This just isn't a revert. As such, there's no 3RR breach.--Maleschreiber (talk) 21:50, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Declined per discussion as it's not clear that this qualifies and that both editors would be better advised to find some formal way to work this out (there's also DR/N, and various project talk pages). My sole action in response to this will be putting a CTOPS notice on the article talk page, since it qualifies. Daniel Case (talk) 22:08, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Has made 5 reverts today on Miloš Obilić. Also has made around 11 reverts on Andrea II Muzaka since July 8 ("slow edit warring"). Today resumed edit warring on Rozafa Castle, where they have made 9 reverts since July 6. The editor gets involved in edit warring, stays one or two days away, and then resumes the edit warring. They do so probably to avoid breaching the 3RR, though today they breached it. Ktrimi991 (talk) 15:17, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

In the Miloš Obilić. The first one was done in order to stabilize the article so we could find a middle ground. Previous editor "Malescreiber" already did this revert 1 minute previously to me, but it got added back by an accident I believe. The second one isn't even a revert. I did not count the 4th one as a revert, as It partially got removed to reach consensus as you can tell. However, to avoid future edit warring it was taken to the TP.

Comments:

My contributions on Andrea II Muzaka are not an attempt to avoid 3RR. It's because I'm studying the sources continuously - take a look at the Talkpage for that article. I did not "resume any edit warring" on Rozafa Castle, I did one revert and stopped even though it got added quickly after. This report is a stretch and takes stuff very out of context. --Azor (talk). 15:34, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

your first revert on Milos Obilic was here [200], here you removed content that had been readded in a revert by another user. Then ktrimi991 readded the content you had removed which you again reverted here [201], this is your second revert. you then reverted my additions [202], here you reached 3rv. then you removed the content you disagreed with from the lead [203] which had been restored by another user making this your 4th revert. then since i readded the content, but kept the images as you had said they were fine. then you reverted[204] the images making you have 5RVs in less than 24 hours. Durraz0 (talk) 15:58, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

the [59] was not me directly attempting to revert. I was editing the old picture you removed just further down while letting your edit of the new pic stay, but since the editor Malescreiber and I was editing at the same time - it caused his edit to vanish. Malescreiber was actually, in fact, reverting your edit - where my edit crashed with his where just I attempted to move the old lead picture further down in the picture.

Then we all parts agreed to take to the talkpage, and since I saw that my [59] edit accidently crashed with Malescreiber's attempt to WP:STABLE, I went on to finish his edit. [60]

The last two "reverts" was not intended to actually revert anyone's new edits, which you could obviously tell if you actually studied the edits. --Azor (talk). 16:19, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Comment: Azorzal is a relatively new editor, and this report has an element of WP:BITE and "gotcha" to it. The warning by Ktrimi991 is totally inadequate as it was from 5 days ago at another article. They could have warned Azorzal over today's edits at Milos Obilic, but apparently chose not to, so as to make it more likely to "get" him.

But there is another far deeper problem here that this report leaves out. As the history of Milos Obilic, Andrea II Muzaka, Rozafa Castle, and many other articles show, there is a group of editors of the same POV that "shares" reverts as a way to game 3RR. They either take turns reverting against a lone editor, as is the case here, or, as soon as one editor exhausts their 3RR limit, another steps in to take their place, as can be seen here. This has been going on for a very long time and has resulted in these editors having a de-facto veto over any edits to the Balkan topic area. I have compiled a massive amount of evidence regarding this behavior [205], which needs to be looked at in depth (I do need to update it with the latest examples, of which there are so many I haven't had the time to do so yet). Khirurg (talk) 16:37, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

They could have warned Azorzal over today's edits at Milos Obilic, but apparently chose not to, so as to make it more likely to "get" him. I will not warn the same person every day, there is no rule that I should warn him the same day I report him. And given your recent AE-logged warning for personal attacks, you should refrain from making unconstructive assumptions about other editors. Ktrimi991 (talk) 16:48, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

That doesn't answer the question of why you didn't warn them. Clearly you could have, so why didn't you? Khirurg (talk) 16:51, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Please refrain from casting WP:ASPERSIONS. you have been warned for such many times in the past, and it has been made clear to you that this counts as a personal attack, something which you have been blocked for. Durraz0 (talk) 17:06, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

• AzorzaI, should you wish to self-revert your last revert on the article, this would be a good time to do it and to show your intent to not edit war. If you don't do it, your first block will come very soon. All the rest editors, and Azor, please go ahead and continue your discussions on the article talk page. Try to not write every statement as if you're throwing a knife at the other person. Thanks, Lourdes 17:19, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

  @Lourdes I have of course no problem doing that, but me self-reverting my last edit will indirectly revert Malescreiber's edit , as my last revert was me fixing up my accidental removal of his WP:STABLE edit. I do believe the page should stay as it is now because that is, in fact, how the page was prior to me and the other editor's involvement. If my revert is still wished upon, I will do it. --Azor (talk). 17:43, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

  Thank you for the response. Please self-revert. Best, Lourdes 17:51, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Note: 3RR has not been broken. However this user has returned several times over the past month to continually re-add unsourced material that has been disputed by two editors — Czello ^(music) 07:06, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

As an experienced user, why have you not opened up talk page discussions on the relevant article talk page Czello? That might be a good step forward. If the IP doesn't respond to the article talk page discussions, (or if some other administrator wishes to act on this) then we can move ahead with further action here.

@Daniel Case: The user has once again reverted. They are refusing to communicate in the thread I started on the talk page (I have directed them to it via their talk page and have pinged them at the discussion).

This new user with around 10-20 edits have been posting non-reliable sources (self-made maps on Malaysian history articles). After being warned, editor continuously reverts. Also, this IP [222] is most likely the same editor due to similar reverts, might be good to block this IP too. If left unchecked, editor will ruin pages with amateur non-reliable sourced maps. Also, editor later on does includes sources but this doesn't corroborate the maps. Danial Bass (talk) 18:29, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

This user, also known as Livioandronico2013, keeps evading his block via multiple IPs, making long time edit warring for impose the same images –all created and uploades by himself– among other good quality photographs without any reasonable argument –or, sometimes, without any argument in absolute– or prior to obtain community consensus in Diana of Versailles and Paul III and his Grandsons articles' talk pages. In that reverts he also removes other constructive editions such as addition of references, improvement of existent references' format or addition of categories according to Wikidata's information, all of that with any reasonable argument for revert those edits, giving only that in which he calls me a "Spanish vandal" or that in which he claims his images as "Quality image".

I was initially involved in this but I stopped reverting at 3RR and asked advice from Isabelle Belato (talk · contribs) as I didn't want to go over the 3 reverting rule.

I did leave a message on KentHaaChe (talk · contribs) talk page as I thought they might have missed the section on the article that states "This is specifically on broadcast television and not on other television sources such as YouTube, Twitter or other online sources." See talk page contribution here [248].

The only edit I made after my 3 reverts was to reinstate the statement about TV broadcasts only. I stopped counting after KentHaaChe (talk · contribs) reverted past 10 times.

I did also leave a message about edit warring after their 4th revert. Many thanks, Knitsey (talk) 08:01, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Comments:
User Mydust has been edit warring on the Bahmani Sultanate page to agenda push. This has started after I added sourced content about the origins of the first ruler of the Bahmani Sultanate off its main page, Ala-ud-Din Bahman Shah which was expanded upon. Mydust has edit warred and agenda pushed on the Bahmani sultanate page and after I opened up a talk page, they responded once and then didn't respond further, only continuing to edit on the page. They have refused much of the sources especially later categorizing Andre wink's source, who calls him "probably an Afghan", in the same category as Kulke calling Zafar Khan a "Turk or Afghan soldier of unknown descent", while other sources such as according to Firishta, Zafar Khan was an Afghan. I was then pushing for this: [268] of him being either Turk of Afghan origin. You can read the talk page for my presented points and how some of the sources he disregards. Noorullah (talk) 03:46, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

This is also not the first time Mydust has engaged in an edit war. On the Khalji dynasty page, they engaged in a similar edit war over whether they were Indianized, and the edit war only ended after a consensus was reached on the talk page from editors to not include Indianized. Here are the diffs of the former edit war back then:

Here is the talk page for the former, Khalji dynasty. "Indianized" (in the subheading of Indianized) Noorullah (talk) 03:53, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

• Mydust would you wish to stop your reverts and join talk page discussions? You have been here for about three years with a clean block log. If you don't join talk page discussions, and if you continue reverting, it will be considered edit warring. Where do you want to go from here? Thanks, Lourdes 04:05, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

  Lastly, the user only conciliated to add his Afghan or Turk origins (though still improperly done as explained) after I said that any further reverts would be put up at ANI. Noorullah (talk) 04:15, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Blocked – for a period of 48 hours I will also be taking the step of logging this short block as a CTOPS action, since it's evident from the user's talk page that they have:

• Been a constant PITA all over the IPA topic area, for exactly the sort of reasons that have made it a contentious topic,
• Been advised that they are editing in a contentious topic area (and note their uncivil response)
• Ignored most attempts to communicate with them (see above as well), except to indulge in further incivility, and
• Received more than a few final warnings.

The block is 48 hours because a) it's a CTOPS action and b) because it's only the user's first block ever, albeit one that seems to have been a long time coming. Daniel Case (talk) 04:59, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

I have now extended the block to a month after the apparent use of 147.124.67.110 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) to evade the block (that IP has similarly been blocked). Daniel Case (talk) 20:29, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Comments:

Hi, this IP editor is repeatedly adding the same bunch of extra external links on the I'm Alive song article, against WP:ELNO guideline. The user seems to not be acknowledging the warnings on their talk page at all, let alone discussing the addition of these external links with other editors on the talk page.

They are also making the same kind of disruptive edits to several other articles too like the following:

• Ashes (Celine Dion song)
• The Prayer (Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli song)
• A New Day Has Come (song)
• That's the Way It Is (Celine Dion song)
• Immortality (Celine Dion song)

and not just the I'm Alive article. I'm noting that article because it has the most extensive history of edit warring / disruptive editing from this user.

Presumably they are the same user as the previous 82.51.12.168 IP, given that the edits are pretty much the same between them.

See also this archived ANI thread. — AP 499D25 (talk) 10:25, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Update: From 16:47 to 18:05 UTC, this IP user just made another wave of the same disruptive edits again today! Example diff 1 (I'm Alive (Celine Dion song)), diff 2, diff 3, diff 4. They seem to not be noticing this ANEW discussion, while happily doing another round of these disruptive edits again. I think a block is warranted here. — AP 499D25 (talk) 23:18, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

@AP 499D25: They've also been targeting articles relating to Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé, but those edits generally involve adding one video link to the infobox, which I don't see a problem with other than the fact that some videos they add can't be accessed from my location. While I'm at it, looking at the page history of Left Outside Alone, it looks like 79.47.17.39 and 79.18.74.229 are two more involved IPs. ResPM (T🔈🎵C) 23:29, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

I looked at the contribs of the four IPs listed here overall, and it doesn't look like they are using multiple IPs simultaneously to disrupt articles. Rather, they're moving from one IP, over to the next on a basis of one to two weeks. Here's a timeline:

• 79.47.17.39: Active from 18–26 April 2023
• 79.18.74.229: Active from 28 April – 8 May 2023
• 82.51.12.168: Active from 21 June – 4 July 2023
• 62.211.233.175: Active from 15 July 2023 – present as of typing this.

If I'm not mistaken, in a situation like this, common Wikipedia practice is to just block the latest IP address (or IP range) involved in the disruption and not just all of them. — AP 499D25 (talk) 02:02, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

They've done it again ([275]). It's pretty clear they aren't going to stop. They need to be dealt with right now. ResPM (T🔈🎵C) 10:33, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

I've created a talk page discussion at Talk:I'm Alive (Celine Dion song)#External links and invited the IP editor to it via their user talk page. Hopefully they stop edit warring and discuss with me and other editors why these external links should be included in these articles.

Thinking more about it, I probably should've done this before proceeding to an ANEW report. One possibility I have in my mind is that they might not know how to start talk page discussions.

...

Anyways, to the IP editor, I encourage you to discuss with me and other editors on that talk page about the inclusion of these external links.

However, if you continue to repeat these edits again without getting to a conclusion / consensus on the talk page thread linked above in favour of those edits first, you will very likely be blocked from editing. — AP 499D25 (talk) 12:48, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Update 2: In spite of the talk page discussion created above, the IP editor just made another wave of edits/reverts to the articles, failing to notice the talk thread and respond to it at all: diff on I'm Alive.

Honestly, when I think more and more about this, it seems that some 'damage' has been done here already. The Wikipedia:Edit warring page states that one of the problems edit warring causes is that it creates animosity between editors. Indeed, I feel that's what's happened here. So really I think both sides of the dispute are at fault here. ResolutionsPerMinute should have started a discussion at the talk page like I did above and invited the other editor to it, rather than revert their edits a total of five times in a row (three times consecutively).

Even I take a little blame in this, in that I should've checked for a talk page discussion and created one if not present before proceeding to reverts (though I only made one wave of reverts), let alone an ANEW thread.

Anyways, I honestly have no idea what is the situation here now, whether the IP editor really is disruptive and not listening at all, is inexperienced to Wikipedia and does not know what a consensus and a talk page are, or maybe doesn't feel good that their edits keep getting rejected by other editors...

Anyhow, I think the appropriate action to take here will be to block the 62.211.233.175 IP address from article space for maybe one week, in which hopefully things do cool down and they become aware of the talk page discussion, eventually participating in it. — AP 499D25 (talk) 08:45, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

So I reverted them a lot, but if I didn't, it was clear someone else would have eventually, talk page discussion or not. At least I warned them on their talk page(s) multiple times. That counts for something. One thing is for certain: the IP is on the opposing viewpoint of 3+ editors, ignoring us entirely, and being purposely disruptive.

Comments:
This specific edit warring started from 4 June, when I provided articles in a move discussion as examples of alternative titles (1). The Venezuelan outlets cited were Runrunes, El Pitazo, El Nacional, Tal Cual and La Patilla. WMrapids would proceed to insist in labelling all as "opposition" sources, including in related articles such as Efecto Cocuyo and Nelson Bocaranda. Issues in the changes include but are not limited to personal interpretation of the sources and, in some instances, removal of referenced content (2).

However, the main problem with the edits (and reverts) is that the user has insisted in changing the articles stable versions to their preferred versions, even after they have been disputed and important issues have been mentioned about them, acting against WP:BRD and at times simply not engaging in the article's talk page (3, 4). The pattern has been slow enough just to avoid violating WP:3RR and ended at WP:VENRS after it was clear in a related RfC that the community rejected the labels unless they were discussed on a case to case basis (Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Venezuela/Reliable and unreliable sources#Source description dispute), but instead it has simply shifted to the other aforementioned articles, even after warnings against edit warring. This has not been limited to Venezuelan related articles or myself, and I'm putting forward the 2022 Peruvian self-coup attempt article has an example of this.

There are many other behavior issues at hand, but I have tried focusing in the main and latest edit warring. The situation is already complex enough and admin intervention is probable needed to prevent further edit wars. NoonIcarus (talk) 11:52, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

• I've glanced at the six pages listed, and it looks to me like both users are edit-warring, and I don't see any current 3RR violations by either. If this is about an overall conduct issue, I suggest NoonIcarus take this to WP:ANI, but that they will have to find a way to justify their conduct as well.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:27, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

• No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the 3-Revert Rule to apply; the links you have provided do not meet these criteria. PhilKnight (talk) 11:55, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

  @PhilKnight, I’m well aware that there is no strict 3RR violation in those particular edits and I never claimed there was. Edit-warring is not synonymous with breaking the 3RR. The policy you linked to clearly states that one can edit-war without breaking the rule. There is also no obligation whatsoever here to list links showing a 3RR violation in a report. It’s the edit-warring noticeboard here, not the exclusive 3RR noticeboard, and any serious case can be reported here. And this case this user has been seriously edit-warring on this article for nearly four weeks. Please actually look at the article‘s history. This is a very serious case. Tvx1 14:03, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

  Also if you do want an example of a 3RR violation during the mention period. On 9 July: 1, 2, 3, 4.Tvx1 15:11, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

  Just curious, why I was the one you nominated for edits made to that article? Do you not believe the edits of Bakermann in the last day are a violation of the 3RR rule you are reporting me for? Were Lorry Gunderson's edits not a violation? And yet you scrolled to 9 July where I made, count them, two reverts (count Lorry's that day for a laugh) I'll save you the bother and link them myself: 1 and 2. Also, do you believe somebody shouldn't be able to revert edits which are demonstrably against consensus and therefore deemed to be vandalism? All my warmest wishes, ItsKesha (talk) 18:16, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

The 9 July report is now stale. I am not going to block. PhilKnight (talk) 20:01, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

PhilKnight, well yeah the 9 July string of reverts is technically stale, but the four weeks of continuous edit warring isn’t. Are you honestly going to ignore that?? What dou you keep falsely implying that only a 3RR violation is disruptive and thus santionable? Tvx1 01:21, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

See WP:NOTTHEM. Also actually read WP:VANDALISM, edits you perceive to be against consensus don’t fit that that definition and don’t give you the right to edit war. Tvx1 01:17, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

User Neverrainy has continued to remove the TV ratings section from Hunted (2015 TV series), despite there being consensus though the MOS for TV series articles to include them. They have also made continued misrepresentations of Wikipedia guidelines, including WP:NOTSTATS.

The user is frequently reluctant to discuss their reasoning for their reversions and makes edit summaries which only include shortcut links to guidelines, which they incorrectly apply as they only seem to read the simplistic shortcut name. Their talk page also seems to have evidence of continued previous instances of edit warring. Happily888 (talk) 05:28, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

• Diff #4 was vandalism. Diff #5 reverted an obviously disruptive edit, even if it wasn't technically vandalism. No violation.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:37, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

  Sorry, but #4 was not vandalism. The article of the stadium shows the capacity the IP changed to. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 12:52, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

  Hmm. It certainly looks like vandalism to someone who hadn't done the digging. The capacity of 18,009 is supported by the cited source, so anyone inspecting that diff might have reasonably assumed that it was random stats-changing vandalism. You're right though - the stadium's article does give a figure that agrees with the IP - it was probably a well-meaning but lazy edit, since they didn't check the ref. (Why it has different capacity figures, I don't know. The source supporting the figure in the stadium's article seems to be a deadlink, but their current website gives a figure of about 25,000. Perhaps the FIFA regs require more spacing than the rugby regs). Girth Summit _(blether) 13:14, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

  Or maybe 7,000 fans are allowed to hover over the stadium in hot air balloons.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:21, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

  Look, I've had a great day so I'll say, first, if we're going to continue editing in some of the same areas let's try to get on. Diff #3 also wasn't a revert as I was just moving as a compromise attempt content that three editors had added before me, and which you had non-3RR edit warred over, and yet you haven't complained about any of those other users. I don't know why, but can you try and work with me rather than with friction. Second, as the diff in your comment shows, I suggested you check what edits constitute 3RR when you flew in with a template - I have to assume you didn't since you still decided to open this (hours later, after I hadn't been editing, so what the aim of the report was is also unclear), and would like to suggest you do again. Misunderstanding policy and subsequently going after editors for it will not do you any good. Kingsif (talk) 21:39, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

Update: 103.110.142.70 now also blocked by Alexf, though I'm not sure if this'll stop the disruption, as only another individual IP has been blocked, rather than the range.

I looked at the contribs of the /24 range, and there haven't been any other edits from the entireity of the range from the last three months, besides the edit warring on three articles, meaning no collateral if the range were to be blocked.

Anyways, to top it off, since there is a suspicion of sockpuppetry here, I have created an SPI report over here for confirmation, and it would also add to the user's record if the evidence is strong.

One more note: I forgot to put this out in the initial ANEW report above, but Squared.Circle.Boxing did also technically cross 3RR on the three articles, though I'm going to guess they made the reverts under WP:3RRNO exemption #3 (sockpuppetry). They were actually informed on their talk page by Lemonaka not to edit war with trolls, instead go by WP:BRI when dealing with such users in the future, which they acknowledged: permalink. — AP 499D25 (talk) 23:20, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

Declined I just dealt with the report on the IP placing the tag over at AIV and declined to block them since it seemed they might be editing legitimately. So for the same reason this could plausibly, to me, come under 3RRNO. But I also note the lack of any demonstrated efforts above to resolve this informally before coming here. Daniel Case (talk) 18:41, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

@BangJan1999 and Daniel Case: I'm the anon editor that was bot-reported over at AIV, for blanking sections of unsourced puffery at a BLP.

That aside, User:Rodagonda is an obvious sockpuppet of Pitarobertz. A few minutes after account creation, Rodagonda immediately started removing G4 speedy tags from Savitha Nambrath, as shown in those diffs above. And today, they're at it again: [298], [299], [300], minutes after Pitarobertz removed the salt template:[301]. No response yet at User talk:Pitarobertz to my warning about sockpuppetry.

It's worth noting that while anonymous users and non-confirmed can't create SPI reports, they can however make a request that an SPI report be made. To do this, on the WP:SPI page, open the box that says "How to open an investigation", then expand the green box within it that starts with "If you are not auto-confirmed", type in the sockmaster's username there (without User:), and press submit. You will be presented with an edit request window that looks like a normal SPI report creation page, where you can fill in the blanks as though you were creating the report, and press submit. Soon after, a confirmed or autoconfirmed volunteer will come and create that report according to the request.

Anyways, I've already created an SPI report for you over here. Feel free to add your comments under the "Comments by other users" section (don't forget to sign with four tildes as it is not signed automatically). — AP 499D25 (talk) 23:55, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

SPA solely aiming to remove image not liked by the subject. It has already been explained that WP does not follow the Japanese folk belief that permission is required to photograph someone in a public place. Imaginatorium (talk) 11:09, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

• The editor was made aware of edit warring policy using the standard warning template, and given a specific note explaining the need to discuss disputed changes by more than one person. They chose not to participate, and after a month had passed with no new comments from any editors, the image was restored per Talk:Lisa Nakazono-Węgłowska#Persistent removal of image by user Elleyu92. -- Whpq (talk) 11:59, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Blocked indefinitely Account was created a month ago and has only edited this article, only removing this image through an incorrect understanding of enwiki image use policy. Daniel Case (talk) 18:07, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Comments:
IP is repeatedly removing reliable sources from the lead. This seems to be POV editing as the IP wants reliable sources removed that criticize Arnold Ehret's pseudoscientic views. The IP is making false edit summaries such as claiming "false information" and "vandalism". The IP does not engage on the talk-page. Psychologist Guy (talk) 11:04, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

IP user consistently making disruptive edits to the regional power article, was already previously blocked under a different IP for the exact same behaviour, after getting his actions reversed the IP then proceeds to edit my talk page, which I revert and the IP reverts back and a loop begins.
