[edit] User:207.195.254.141 reported by User: (aeropagitica)   (talk)  (Result:24 hours (already blocked))

Three revert rule violation on Controversy over racial characteristics of Ancient Egyptians (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs). 207.195.254.141 (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log):

Time report made: 21:30, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Comments
  • I had begun to revert this user when I saw his massive blankings through RC patrolling in the IRC channels, when I looked through the history of the page it appears that this user had removed several sections in the past, and is "attacking" the article, because he feels that there is not a neutral point of view being expressed (an Afrocentric vs. Eurocentric view of the controversy). However, his edits have gone past any sort of "I'm making this article a neutral POV" when it appears he is trying to eliminate the other POV in this cituation. I endorse the block that aero imposed on this user, and possibly a longer block for consistent blankings of the page. Ryūlóng 21:26, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
  • It appears you've already blocked him for this, aeropagitica? i'm fine with that, for one. --heah 21:41, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:Asbl reported by User:Lou Sander (Result:no block)

Three revert rule violation on Ann Coulter (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs). Asbl (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log):

Asbl made many changes to this section, undoing the edits of others, changing them, etc. As I read WP:3RR, these are "complex partial reverts."


Three revert rule warning diff from before this report was filed here (if applicable) :

Time report made: Lou Sander 20:43, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Comments: After Asbl made these reverts, another editor posted a comment about 3RR on User talk:Asbl. Asbl dismissed it. A similar dismissive attitude exists, in my opinion, throughout Asbl's talk page and Edit summaries, and in Asbl's contributions to Talk:Ann Coulter, when other editors, acting with reasoned good faith, disagree with Ashl.

No Block. These don't seem to me to qualify as "complex partial reverts." the majority are simple edits; some may violate npov, but that doesn't mean they are reverts. work it out, find a mediator if you have to. (If another admin cares to review, please feel more than welcome to do so.) --heah 21:50, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
Thank you. For the record, Lou is misrepresenting my edits. The first diff contains edits that 2 other editors made. One of the edits was by Lou himself. This is further proof that this was a frivolous report. --Asbl 23:18, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Also, this 3RR event occured just after the article is semi-protected. Before that semi-protection 2 ips are reverting this page to same version and both edit in same edit patter. If applicable, they seem to be obvious sock puppets. They are: User:82.168.59.236 and User:82.92.94.108, if need ed their similar reverts on Galatasaray article, 22:56, 26 August 2006 and 21:32, 26 August 2006.

Allways this guy comes when i'm offline:) As you say, he came back and revert the article 3 times as seen on history of the article. Also as i report previously those ip's edit pattern (reverting to same version), they can be blocked as obvious sockpuppets. --Ugur Basak 20:59, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Time report made: 19:08, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Comments: This has been going on for quite a while, both as user pvcblue and as anonimous IP's. This has been discussed at the talk page, and a suspected sockpuppet case has been opened and closed as well. The user has been reverted by multiple editors, but keeps on adding the link to his own site. I would propose to block pvcblue as well, but I have n o proof that the IPs and this user are the same person (only string suspicions). The two IPs involved and a few others from further back in the editing history are clearly the same users though. 8 edits in 24 hours is clearly enough to break the 3RR, and two warnings have been given today.

Comments: User vandalized the photo, then kept re-uploading the same version after it was reverted to the original.

  • To render a decision (personally, not for other admins) I need diffs in the standard format presented below. alphaChimp laudare 03:46, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
    • There doesn't seem to be any difs for the page, but he is reverting the image. Car Pix 14:47, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
Objection to my editing of image being called vandalism. The image in question is that of an automobile, intended to illustrate an automobile article. I had cropped the image in order to better frame the automobile, as the surroundings were irrelevant to the subject at hand. User:Car Pix seemed to be miffed that I edited his image and reverted my edit, while at the same time calling me a vandal on my talk page. I submit that my edits to the image improved the image for its purposes on Wikipedia. I also suggest that User:Car Pix better familiarize himself with the definitions of "vandalism" and "public domain." DonIncognito 17:13, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
Furthermore, Car Pix's objection came several months after my first edit of the image. Prior to his objection (which was probably based on his poorly conceived assumption that no one Wikipedia has the right to edit his images) there was absolutely no problems whatsoever with my edit of the image. Car Pix is reverting the image to a poorer state, and therefore I submit that it is he who is in fact violating the 3RR rule. DonIncognito 17:16, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

User was blocked for 3rr one year and 3 weeks ago, but not three weeks ago. Liftarn seems to beleive that he is editing in good faith according to WP:BLP policy, which states that removing libelous content from a blp article does not count for 3rr, so just 6 hours for now, and maybe we can work this out on Liftarn's talk page??--heah 19:44, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

At worst, Ohnoitsjamie went one over while restoring warnings being removed by a user who had not been blocked for even a day before deleting them.

I'm following WP:IAR here. I also didn't report the vandal on here when he broke 3RR because I consider him a friend, and I don't want him to get blocked. If the page can be protected, all I need is a little time and I'm sure can reach a compramise with him. However, if you are going to block us, only block me.

[edit] User:Synthe reported by User:deeceevoice (Result: 24h)

[[WP:3RR}Three revert rule]] violation on

Mr. Popo (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs). Synthe (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log):

User:Synthe has deleted wholesale a block of text to which he/she objects without providing any substantive reason, other than that he/she disagrees with what it states. I provided an additional source and repeatedly have remonstrated with him/her on the talk page. They are not a new user, and I've warned him/her twice regarding the 3RR. This count is since the addition of another source only, given that, to be fair, the user may have felt that there was insufficient documentation for the text. Further, the user repeatedly has refused to sign his/her posts in the discussion -- an exchange which has been totally useless, because Synthe still refuses to be rational, responding with barely intelligible comments and acusatory or abusive language such as, "djinns aren't africans, hey reverned deeceevoice stop doing this, if your a black supremist and i suggest you stop" and "you sound like one of those idiots who cry on what you "THINK" is racism...." (FYI, I was totally unfamiliar with Mr. Popo and did not write the original text regarding racism, but simply added information regarding the cultural context of the phenomenon and another source.) The edit notes accompanying Synthe's repeated blanking of text are either nonexistent or purely argumentative, rather than substantive.

  • Is the user aware of the existence of the 3RR policy? El_C 19:50, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
I warned the Synthe repreatedly about his/her behavior and explained several times that it was in violation of Wiki policy. And I provided a link to Wikipedia:3RR.[54] Synthe never responded, indicating seemingly a willful disregard of the policy. Further, a check of Synthe's block history indicates similar obtuse, disruptive behavior in the past involving altering other people's posts, profanity and copyright violations. Finally, Synthe has been a registered editor under the same name since December 31, 2005. It is virtually impossible that he/she would ahve been unaware of the 3RR rule -- even without my repeated warnings and the provided link. deeceevoice 20:09, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
I see. Next time, please follow the standard 3RR format; that is, one which includes the warning from the outset. Also, your link above failed to reveal this, I had to look for it myself, it was here. Thanks. User blocked for 24 hours. El_C 20:26, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
Sorry about that. I had the right link the first time and cut and pasted it in -- but guess what? It was blanked because I'm blocked from editing in my AOL web browser by the umpty-ump collateral damage block of the freaking day. Annoying as hell!!!! I'm crunching a deadline and thought I'd selected the same diff in my Internet Explorer window -- but obviously not. Thanks. deeceevoice 20:55, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Time report made: 23:28, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Comments:I disagree that I broke the 3RR. We were in the middle of a content dispute where my well sourced contribution was deleted by Panonian 3 times. After that an anonymous user appeared from the nowhere with 0 edit history and deleted the disputed section. There were only 2 possibilites for me: 1, a new vandal appeared or 2, Panonian are using a sockpuppet to evade the 3RR. I hoped that only a vandal a not the later so I reverted. The anonymous user didn't communicated on the talk page where the dispute was going. Zello 00:16, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

First of all, the anonymous user was not a vandal (the content dispute is not a vandalism). He did not agreed with your edits to the article, so he reverted you, and you reverted back, so you broke 3rr. Second, the anonymous user was not my sockpuppet (you can check my IP adress, I have a statical one), but anyway he is somebody whom I know and who edit Wikipedia from time to time. Interestingly, another anonymous IP appeared that reverted article to last version by Zello: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ba%C4%8D&diff=73129685&oldid=73129095 Anyway, the fact is that Zello violated 3rr, and that he should be blocked for 24 hours. PANONIAN (talk) 00:38, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Calling a friend from IRC who hasn't got any user name and edit history IS evading the 3RR from your side. He wasn't another independent wikipedia user. Zello 00:40, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

ps. Also I ask a Checkuser about that anonymous user who appeared after that incident, because I would like to prove that he is not my sockpuppet. Zello 00:41, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, I did not called him. As I said, he edit Wikipedia, and had a registered nick (I cannot say who he is, he forbid that to me), and we both hang on irc chat too. He also watch my Wiki contributions (like you do, by the way), so he saw that I have a problems with "certain user" and became involved in whole story. That however does not change the fact that you reverted four times. PANONIAN (talk) 00:52, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Why he didn't used his user name then? An anon who deletes a sourced section without any comment and 0 edit history is only a vandal. And 3RR is not applied to vandalism. Zello 00:54, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, Greater Hungarian nationalist propaganda that you want to impose here is certainly not "sourced section". Besides, you did not reverted his second edit where he removed entire section (which I proposed on the talk page by the way), but you reverted his first edit that was only content dispute. As for why he didn't used his user name, let say that he has his reasons (he do not want to be seen involved in such content disputes), but as I say, I cannot reveal his identity even if that mean that you will not be blocked for 3rr. :) PANONIAN (talk) 01:04, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Don't present here your accusations about the dispute itself because that's not the right place. You can call it anything, it was relevant info backed by two reliable sources. Zello 01:12, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, but is it claim that "it was relevant info backed by two reliable sources" an example of talking about the dispute itself? :) PANONIAN (talk) 01:14, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
And by the way, Zello, this is clearly your sockpuppet (he also reverted my edit in Árpád dynasty article, how interesting): http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=195.56.12.45 PANONIAN (talk) 01:52, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

I noticed, I'm not able to do anything with him, he followed my contribs. I already asked for Checkuser here. Your "friend" appeared also under a new nick... Zello 02:00, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

I didn't have to watch your contribs because we disputed about the same question on the talk page of another article. After I found sources in that dispute I decided to add this new information to the town-article.

Comment

I left a warning, [65] thinking this was a new anon, but then learned it was user:Germen editing again for the first time since he was blocked for a month in April by Dmcdevit for sockpuppetry and block evasion. [66] He's been blocked several times before for 3RR, including on this article. Here is Germen leaving a post on his talk page from the same IP range. [67] SlimVirgin (talk) 14:53, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Because of my low opinion of Wikipedia maintenance of rules, I decided to edit as an anonymous account. I did not revert, but re-inserted information which was deleted by this controversial administrator, whose controversial administration and editing patterns have drawn considerable interest (at least three forum threads) at wikipediareview.com (which I do not believe to be an attack site, but a necessary addendum to the Wikipedia community). Several attempts from my side to discuss the matter were ignored. The textual changes I made were not identical to the previous versions, so they do not qualify as a revert. Germen (Talk | Contribs ) 15:00, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
  • You were reverting against four or five editors, and you're very familiar with 3RR having been blocked for it so often. SlimVirgin (talk) 15:04, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
  • I did not revert, just tried to cooperatively add and improve information. There is an editing conflict, so the POV tag is justified. So according to my knowledge I did not violate 3RR. Any attempts to negotiate a solution of the conflict with her failed, see the talk page of the Talk:Islamophobia article. I would like she heeds the worries of several people at e.g. wikipediareview.com and changes her administrative pattern. Germen (Talk | Contribs ) 15:06, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Detailed refutation

  • As an administrator, SlimVirgin should be aware that in the case of an editing conflict the POV tag is in place.
  • She should be aware as well that reverts are to be used mainly in order to stop vandalism. Adding an important critic of the Islamophobia concept (Robert Spencer, a bestselling author whose book The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam and the Crusades ranked at #14 of Amazon sales at a certain point) and adding a much-needed POV label cannot be qualified as vandalism, hence reverting was inappropriate, see WP:3RR.
  • My attempts to discuss the differences in opinion with her failed, even so resulting in deleting entries in her guest book.

Comments: LaszloWalrus has been on an edit-war campaign to excise Objectivism from this article; he is currently gaming the system, ignoring the extensive responses and sources provided on the Talk:Pseudoreligion page, as well as the citations listed in the article itself (which he has removed). This editor has an self-avowed interest in Objectivism and has run into a number 3RR warnings and blocks when adding/removing material from other articles. In this case, since May, he has reverted the article over a dozen times. Initially he claimed "unsourced"; but when provided sources, claimed "unsupported" or "biased", and now claims "non-consensus" (although only a single other Objectivist has concurred with him).--LeflymanTalk 17:07, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Its 4R *in 24h* - which this isn't William M. Connolley 18:54, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

From WP:3RR:
  • "This does not imply that reverting three times or fewer is acceptable. In excessive cases, people can be blocked for edit warring or disruption even if they do not revert more than three times per day."
  • And, under Intent of the policy: "Equally, reverting fewer than four times may result in a block depending on context."
This user is edit-warring and gaming the 3RR policy, which qualifies as an "excessive case".--LeflymanTalk 20:48, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

  • I will certainly not object to it if someone blocks here, because it is four reverts within 24 hours of something which is not simple vandalism. Still, keep in mind that 3RR was not intended to be "I can make this edit exactly four times, and if you revert me all these times, you will be blocked, not me." I will leave a note on Rebecca's talkpage asking her to self-revert and hence remove the fourth revert. Sjakkalle (Check!) 09:27, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
    • Since it is now 24 hours since the last revert, I'll just call this one an amnesty. Try to discuss using the user-talk or article-talk pages if there are still ongoing disputes, and a civil and reasonable resolution should be possible. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:42, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

It was within 25 hours. Given your past block record you'll give the admins if they think that looks like gaming 3RR. JoshuaZ 00:56, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
Look at CAIR. There is a link to criticism article - should it have redirected back? You tell me. Only one of my past blocks was actually a 3rr violation. BhaiSaab talk 01:01, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
Do you mean to say you were editing something that constituted vandalism? This was still essentially a content issue. If you think a user's action is borderline vandalism or such you should get an uninvoled user to step in. 3RR can only be ignored for the most blatant forms of vandalism. And in any event, changing your argument from it wasn't in 24 hours to calling on the vandalism exception is hardly persuasive. JoshuaZ 01:11, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
I never called it vandalism; it's obviously a content dispute where one editor believes that an article on an organization should be 75% criticism, which I don't see to be supported by policy or guidelines anywhere. The adherence to procedure over that of quality on Wikipedia is quite disturbing. BhaiSaab talk 01:24, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
If it has been within 25 hours, then it means that the user does follows the rules. The purpose of this policy is to prevent edit warring, it is NOT punitive. Furthermore, the length of the block :"48 Hours" is strange? --Reza1 01:44, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
Who unblocked BhaiSaab? He violated 3RR and the policy needs to be applied consistently. I violated the 3 RR rules and I was blocked for 48 hours. So what's up with that?--CltFn 02:03, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
You violated 3rr 3 times on three seperate articles (all under 24 hours). I did not. BhaiSaab talk 02:05, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

The user was also blocked in the past for a 3RR violation [108] for 24 hours, and then , warned twice again [109] about 3RR violations [110] and again [111] and was blocked again for 48 hours for a violation [112] Amoruso 10:30, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

note the revison is not on the sourced material, and it also doesn't matter on what it is. pages could have been asked and would have been provided anyway. Amoruso 10:32, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Reverts include 3RR violations both on the terrorist-underground reversion (direct) and blanking of sourced information. 10:15, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Derex. In reality. there are only three actual reverts. The rest are mischaracterized by a user who is pissed at me for trying to get rid of his POV in the article. --SpinyNorman 10:26, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
SpinyNorman is a serial reverter and this is a clear 3RR violation. He restored the word "terrorist" four times in just over nine hours, [113] [114] [115] [116] and his first edit was a revert to a previous version of his, where he also added the word "terrorist." [117] He has been blocked four times for 3RR, and there have been other occasions where he was warned, not reported, or the page was protected. There is also a current RfAr in part because of his reverting. Most of the editing Spiny does is reverting, and most of the reverting involves trying to game 3RR, with occasional miscalculations such as this one. SlimVirgin (talk) 10:47, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
I see SV still hasn't learned to grasp the concept of a good-faith edit. Maybe one day she will... --SpinyNorman 10:59, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Reviewed: Uninvolved party. I do not think this is gaming the system on the part of the reporter. The issue of "terrorism" with respect to Lehi (group) is being discussed at Talk:Lehi (group), was discussed with respect to this article at Talk:Folke Bernadotte and on SpinyNorman's talk page. I tend to be lenient with 3RR in established users, but this is one situation where discussion should have continued before choosing to revert. I've also taken into account the previous blocks for 3RR on User:SpinyNorman. I think that a 24 hour block is appropriate, but I'm also protecting Folke Bernadotte for 24 hours to let cooler heads prevail when making further edits. -- Samir धर्म 11:44, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

As 3RR should not be rewarded, and the violation resulted in the removal of sourced information regarding Bernadotte, I have restored the version prior to Norman's changes, while maintaining the protect for now. Briangotts (Talk) (Contrib) 20:08, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment

Spiny was engaged in this series of reverts even as the 3RR report above was being made, which indicates a lack of respect for our policies and procedures. SlimVirgin (talk) 11:27, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Reviewed: I'm lumping this one in with the previous one for a total of 24 hours. I agree that the intent of each of the edits above was akin to reversion. I'm going to ask that SpinyNorman discuss the issue on the talk page before further edits. Thanks -- Samir धर्म 11:50, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
so this is the 6th time he will be blocked because of WP:3RR. Amoruso 12:03, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
  • This one is baloney. These are not reverts -- the content removed and inserted is different each time as anyone who clicks on the links will see. "Slim Virgin" (this username is borderline offensive), is smackdab in the middle of this edit war. The "lack of respect for our procedures" comment "virgin" levels is uncivil and smells disingenuous. Is it respectful to delete a users edits three times then report him for 3RR? If "Spiny" is blocked "Virgin" should also be blocked -- for edit warring.

[118] [119] [120] Justforasecond 16:34, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

It makes no difference whether the content was the same or different — and in this case, it was the same content he kept removing or altering. I see you're in the process of trying to have the 3RR policy changed because you were blocked. You might want to try reading it first. SlimVirgin (talk) 16:41, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
Of course it makes a difference what the content is. It isn't a reversion if the content changes on both sides, its called hammering out a consensus. In any case, you haven't explained your edit warring and why it should go unnoticed while Spiny is blocked for not "respecing our policies". Your edit summaries, accusing Spiny of "POV pushing" are also uncivil. From all I can see, he removed a derrogatory and speculatory use of a living person that you kept re-inserting "press speculation that Prince Charles pressured so-and-so to resign" changed which he changed to "amid controversy surrounding so-and-so's resignation". Now maybe this is sourced well enough to meet BLP and maybe not. But it's definitely not a matter of "POV pushing"
The final "revert" you reported is nothing of the sort[121]. He changed
Amid press speculation
to
Amid unsourced speculation by a member of the British press
How is this a reversion at all? How can you presume to take the high ground in asking someone to be blocked for "reversion" when his edit is protecting a living person?
I don't even know Spiny, I just happened to click on this case and found it an obviously poor use of 3RR. Justforasecond 17:28, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
If you don't know Spiny, and you don't understand the 3RR policy, you shouldn't be commenting. (1) SpinyNorman is an inveterate POV pusher and serial reverter; most of what he does on Wikipedia is revert, revert, revert all the lifelong day; (2) on this particular article, he was reverting sourced material; (3) I reverted him because he stalks me to articles I'm editing and reverts for no reason other than to be irritating; he has been doing it for about nine months; I wasn't "edit warring," I was "Spiny warring"; (4) 3RR violations do not depend on content; (5) it makes no difference whether the same or different material is involved; any undoing of another editor's work is a revert. That's my last comment about this. SlimVirgin (talk) 17:38, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
So now you admit to warring with another user, yet you remain unblocked. How is this reasonable? And how is this a revert?
Amid press speculation
changed to
Amid unsourced speculation by a member of the British press
This seems like a pretty clear-cut consensus attempt to me. He didn't alter your edit or remove any words or punctuation.
If someone is wikistalking you, we can create a policy for that. I have a couple of stalkers myself and I would be happy to craft language with you prohibiting wikistalking. But, until then you've been warring and its not fair to report someone for not "respecting our policies" when you are flaunting them yourself. Justforasecond 17:55, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Three revert rule violation on

2006 Israel-Lebanon War (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs). Kosmopolis (talk • contribs • logs • block user • block log):


15:27 September 5, the third paragraph is the one at issue.


Time report made: 18:55, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment Kosmopolis is adding lots of detail to the intro about how many tanks were used, how many on each side killed, making the lead too detailed and long. He was warned about 3RR and was offered the opportunity to revert himself [122] but did so only partially, [123] leaving some of the figures in place. TewfikTalk 18:55, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Clarification
I was in the process of shortening the intro when User:SlimVirgin indiscriminately and repeatedly reverted multiple edits of mine regarding the whole article, while the subject of dispute was only the lead. It was impossible not to commit my pending changes without losing edits. After I had committed, I immediately started shortening the lead to meet consensus.
The lead as it was before had been under User:Tewfik's constant watch and contained gibberish phrasing and non-NPOV information as well as imprecise estimates and unsourced claims [124]. What we wanted to add (and what User:Tewfik calls lots of details) is a concise summary of human and material costs of the war. The section he kept deleting deals with casualties, Israeli efforts, Hezbollah efforts, Israeli IDPs, Lebanese IDPs, environmental damage and political implications, all backed up exclusively by reputable sources. Note that the lead was copy-edited and fleshened out by other editors as well and that it conforms to WP:LEAD in that it is capable of standing alone as a concise overview of the article (see [125]). As soon as well-sourced information started pouring in, User:Tewfik kept reverting to unsourced information, calling the statistics one-sided and prevented the lead from being changed to NPOV. Please note especially his questionable stance on the issue of Lebanese and Israeli refugees. The revision now looks like this [126]. User:Tewfik calls this only a partial revert and would like to have it back to this: [127]. I guess this would not only be a reversal by means of revisions, but also by means of NPOV policies, by means of precise language and by means of conforming to WP:LEAD.
Please note that User:SlimVirgin appeared out of nowhere and took part in the edit war before threatening to report me and that User:Tewfik (who reported me), had been critisized earlier for his behaviour by other editors of the lemma (see [128]). Kosmopolis 20:44, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Being that this is clearly a content dispute, and the user reverted four times, I don't think there is any issue. If it is at all relevant though, an independent and neutral user has also since reverted the WP:Lead. TewfikTalk 02:30, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Clearly there is a content dispute here. As this is his first violation I will be blocking for 13 hours. --PinchasC | £€åV€ m€ å m€§§åg€ 03:23, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Time report made: 23:16, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments:

McPhail has reverted the article every time an edit is made. He clearly does not assume good faith in the contributions of editors such as me and TJ Spyke. Every time an edit is made to improve the article, McPhail returns and reverts the article claiming it as being "Cleaned Up" [129]. This is the version that TJ Spyke and I worked on [130]. We based the whole format of the article on these two articles (WrestleMania XX and WrestleMania 21) and this isn't the first time McPhail has reverted the article to his own liking. See the article's history here [131] every single "Clean Up" he has made have only been reverts to his previous version. This is really getting frustrating to users like me and TJ Spyke who have worked so hard to improve the article's quality. He has been referred to WP:OWN several times before but has simply ignored it. -- bulletproof 3:16 23:16, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
My response: my initial edit to the article after several weeks was reverted with no explanation by 3BulletProof [132]. My subsequent edits - which were not all reverts to the same version - were all similarly reverted with little or no explanation. It should be noted that 3BulletProof has also reverted the article on more than three occasions - [133][134] [135] [136], in several cases without any edit summary whatsoever. 23:50, 5 September 2006 (UTC) McPhail 23:51, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

I looked into this. Humus has been edit warring on this article for some time. He called others "crusading liars" but I haven't seen any namecalling from others, inc ParadoxTom (Where are the diffs for "namecalling", Humus?) "Slim Virgin" myseteriously joined the fray and began warring immediately, gaming this new user into a 3RR. If any, all three should be sanctioned, the more experienced receiving longer blocks. It may be worth noting that Humus has been warring to insert the POV phrasing "All mainstream jewish groups (religious and secular) are strongly opposed to Jews for Jesus". ParadoxTom has been working to remove this (and other) inappropriate wordings. Justforasecond 02:09, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Time report made: 18:59

Comments: The second complaint I would like to file against 3bulletproof16 for violating WP:3RR refers to User talk:3bulletproof16. He reverted the User talk:3bulletproof16 page to EXACTLY as it was at a previous time on not one, not two, not three, but OVER TWENTY (20) times on September 5. They all fall directly under the wording of WP:REVERT (see paragraph 2 above) and therefore constitute a violation of WP:3RR that was not dealt with. This user’s belligerent reversion vandalism of his own user page is clearly visible at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:3bulletproof16&action=history, where he constantly reverts constructive comments despite being told repeatedly not to do so, and told again not to do so…and told again not to do so…and told again…and told again…and again…and again…and so on. This user is belligerent and should be dealt with accordingly.

Exported from JB196's Talk Page:
Okay, please stop editing 3bulletproof16's talk page: period. It's not helping matters. Let's take it up here. I think 3BP16 is warranted in wanting to remove the large chunk of text from his talk page - there's no good reason to keep it as it's clearly just copied text from another talk page. So it should be no problem to remove it, as it's preserved elsewhere. The only comment that is unique to 3BP16's talk page will be preserved - all duplicate information will be removed. I'll perform the removal myself. Objections? --PeruvianLlama(spit) 05:21, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
...
I just saw your (JB196) comment on my talk page. The comment under Extraordinary Machine is no longer relevant if there isn't the issue of who should be revert who any more - once we resolve this, it will no longer be needed. --PeruvianLlama(spit) 05:24, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
...I was asking you to stop so we could get on with resolving things. Which brings us to this: it is Wikipedia policy that users should not remove warnings from their talk pages regarding their disruptive behaviour or simple vandalism. 3bulletproof16's edits do not fall under either of these categories, and so while it may be frustrating, he is free to remove your comments from his talk page. Since the content dispute is regarding the Vic Grimes article anyway, the conversation can be continued on its related talk page. --PeruvianLlama(spit) 05:50, 5 September 2006 (UTC)


For myself, I suggest you heed his advice, and I suggest that this report be dropped without action. --Calton | Talk 00:11, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Note that the text in question is in the section of the article titled "Celebrity". User has also made many reverts in other sections in the past 24 hours[168]. --- Hong Qi Gong 16:25, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Hong has made a false report. If you check carefully, I have not made four reverts at all. I have merely been trying to find suitable edits to meet the concerns of several editors. Edits made previously were accepted by editors after discussion.[169] Also Hong has not indicated what version I previously reverted to. John Smith's 16:32, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    That is still not four-plus reverts of the same kind - they are merely different edits. John Smith's 19:12, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    Edits of the same sentence, if I might add. They were all reverts of what other editors did on the same sentence. --- Hong Qi Gong 19:20, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    Where there were any conflicts over that sentence, in each case they have been resolved. You yourself said that you would accept comprimise I suggested. And yet you think I should be blocked for 3RR? The rule is there when people can't agree. In both cases I have reached a solution - and I should point out that you disagreed with Sumple's agreement over "outside Asia". So really I think your argument is invalid. John Smith's 19:51, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    I "accepted the compromise" because I didn't want to do any more reverts and turn our edits into edit-warring[170]. Whether or not I disagreed with User:Sumple and whether or not I've come to a "compromise" is irrelevant to the fact that you violated 3RR. --- Hong Qi Gong 20:02, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    3RR is not trying to find new edits that are acceptable to other parties! John Smith's 20:06, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    So you mean if I actually reverted your edits again, then you would have violated 3RR? Because that would be evidence that we have not come to a compromise. In fact, why don't I do that, then. There. We have no compromise. --- Hong Qi Gong 20:09, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    Dude, what the hell is wrong with you?! You're reverting again after you said you wouldn't. The fact you've changed your mind because by that logic you can get me blocked shows your own bad faith. John Smith's 20:16, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    Dude... "Trying to find a compromise" does not mean reverting other editors' edits more than 5 times. Regardless of my own edits, you have violated 3RR. And please remain civil. There's "nothing the hell wrong with me". --- Hong Qi Gong 20:20, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    A revert is not if you're making different edits. Just because I am not agreeing that "English" is correct does not mean that it is anti-3RR. It would be anti-3RR if I was pushing the same edit. You have demonstrated bad faith by withdrawing your own agreement not to edit more, just because I tried to argue that reaching a comprimise meant there wasn't 3RR. You're really silly for showing that you want to get me blocked. John Smith's 20:24, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    Again, please remain civil. Your edits were all made to revert other edits made by various editors on the same sentence. We may disagree on how to apply 3RR violations here, but I'm done with this discussion because of your inability to remain civil. I'll let the admins decide. --- Hong Qi Gong 20:29, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
    Well your determined effort to get me blocked when I haven't broken 3RR rules is enough to drive anyone around the bend! As Goebells said, "If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it." Unfortunately that does work sometimes, so I have to fight my case to ensure no one is fooled into believing you. John Smith's 20:31, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Last note - In the context of 3RR, reverting means undoing the actions of another editor or other editors in whole or part, and that's exactly what User:John Smith's has done. --- Hong Qi Gong 20:40, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

My judgement is that JS's has technically broken 3RR, although was probably striving in good faith to find an acceptable wording. But its perfectly clear its a 2-sided war so HQG gets a similar length block for edit warring too William M. Connolley 21:02, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

This edit by IP 69.156.83.143, this edit by IP 69.156.80.134, this edit by IP 64.230.66.198, and this edit by IP 64.230.69.196 have all been the same reversion on the same day (September 8, 2006). They all come from the same Ottawa Ontario Canada area as checked by Domain Name Test. I suspect these four reverts are all the same person, meaning they have broken Wikipedia's three-revert rule. Three of the IPs have half their edits on Caucasoid, Negroid, Mongoloid, Australoid, pushing that genetic races exist. The other IP is connected to the previous three other than its Ottawa Ontario Canada location, because his/her edits on the Black people article have been pushing that the Black race is determined by genetics. --Dark Tichondrias 22:25, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments: The user in question seems to be coming from a dynamic IP address that are all from the same ISP. All the posts to the talk page have followed a similar style so I have concluded that this is a 3RR violation. In an attempt not to bite, I posted a warning to the articles talk page and suggested a cooling off periode which was later broken in a 5th revert in 24hrs. I'm sure that this is a matter of a new editor not knowing the policies (they have finally started signing their posts) but this is a senetive issue and these actions have been disrupting the efforts to make improvements to the material in question; CP/M comm |Wikipedia Neutrality Project has been helping in this regard.

Time report made: 14:36, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments: Continuation of a months-old revert war. Frankly, I don't know why User:Huaiwei seems to deliberately keep targetting me for reverts. He originally objected to the additions on the basis that Hong Kong isn't a nation. When pointed to him that other countries appear on the list, he shifts is argument that Hong Kong-style milk tea et al doesn't exist. Long discussions and lists on links on the talk page shows that it does. He then disputes their prominence, which is shown through another list of external links. All throughout, he keeps on claiming I'm conducting original research, despite me providing links. He also keeps claiming none of my sources are valid, despite the fact that he seems quite intent on adding long lists of entries himself, without the same standard he sets for me (but no one else). [193] [194] [195] He has not responded to requests by me to confirm any of his own additions yet keeps demanding them from me. If you'll note the history page, you'll see that many of my entries were added or readded at some point or another by Instantnood, McyJerry, Novacatz, and Terence ong, while he seems to be the only one deleting them. If you'll see on the page, he's made whopping 46 reverts on this page. The lastest reverts stem from me adding a government postal stamp depicting of my entries. He reverted me, contending I'm still conducting original research, so I added more external links from government websites and a documentary to try to appease him, and he still kept reverting me a couple more times. Frankly, I think because of the fact that he's setting the standard of evidence, and seems to have declared himself both judge and jury, there'll be no standard he'll ever accept, and he just wants to keep reverting me to be difficult. Also, I think he might still be on a revert-war probation that stemmed from his countless revert wars. --Yuje 14:36, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

As such, it is not a BLP violation: as stated directly in BLP policy, If an allegation or incident is notable, relevant, and well-documented by reliable published sources, it belongs in the article — even if it's negative and the subject dislikes all mention of it.

Comments: It believed that this IP address is a sock puppet for 69.196.61.55, who was reported previously for violation of the 3RR and received both an 8-hour and 48-hour block within the last few days. This belief is based on the nature of the edits, which are identical. In all cases, the user is posting commercial material about "Commando Krav Maga" copied directly from a website that is selling products and services. Despite the similar names "Commando Krav Maga" is not the same thing as Krav Maga, although this user is attempting to sell their system as an "improved" version of Krav Maga. I have been reverting their edits for a while now and have repeatedly attempted to engage them in a dialog with no success. Perseverantia 00:06, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

As soon as I warned 216.193.146.206 that the user was close to 3RRV Mycats made the first of the edits listed above. Furthermore, both Mycats and 206 have made similar threats to the image talk page [264] [265] [266] [267] I would therefore recommend that both these IPs be blocked as well.

I have protected the page to prevent the edit warring from continuing. Given that this user is engaging in significant talk page discussion, doesn't appear to be editing or interacting with other users in a combative way, and appears to be removing unverifiable speculation from the article, in my judgment a warning will be sufficient for this first offense.

Comments:User does not seem to understand that comments on talkpages may be refactored if consensus determines the comments to be unrelated to improving the article per talk page guidelines. User has already been blocked before for 3RR. --ScienceApologist 00:24, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

I do understand refactoring of the talk page but it states in the policy that this is only if it is "entirely and unmistakably" irrelevant. Yet the large section being removed by ScienceApology contains many points by various editors. Nor was there any consensus to remove it from the talk page though there was some agreement about reverting the article itself and which I did not revert further and about which I instead went to the talk page.--Lucas 01:07, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

The two sections were your critique of an unrelated issue: the Big Bang and cosmic inflation. Despite the misleading title you gave these sections, they were clearly not about the article in question and therefore "entirely and unmistakably" irrelevant. I refactored them to your talkpage and you removed them, they have just recently been restored by another user. --ScienceApologist 02:54, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
Other users also discussed this in the section removed (one did quite alot research for it). The discussion itself was also about whether or not Big Bang, Inflation were or were not related to the scientific section of this article entitled "There is no special position". Your edit assumed the outcome of the discussion and declared by fiat that they were not related and then went on to remove the entire discussion that occured over some days with multiple editors! Lucas 13:36, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
All other editors involved in the issue agreed that the discussion was not relevant to improving the article and should not be held on its talk page. --LambiamTalk 19:12, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Time report made: 05:10, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments: I've never made such a report before - hope I'm getting it approximately right. The anon user is repeatedly deleting external links on various pages while accusing the links of being "spammy". That may be somewhat true, but the list of reference citations is also getting deleted from the Yoga page and the user is doing it over and over rather rudely.

When making one of these edits, the anon user asserted that "I have already discuss this issue to the Arbitration Committee". Although this person is anon, I think it is clear that they are not a naive new user.

Another vague reference asserting "This issue is been forwarded to Arbitration Committee" was made in a subsequent edit. I don't know what this refers to - I suspect it is misinformation.

Note that the list of reference citations, not just the external links, is getting repeatedly removed from the article.

The user has been informed of this report.

Due to the high number of reverts and the lack of civility displayed, I have blocked the anon for 1 week.--Konstable 06:26, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Time report made: 21:29, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments: After doing some work on double redirects, I warned this user against undoing the work of others by purposefully recreating a double redirect. I linked him to WP:2R and asked him to review the policy. He reverted the work again. His message on my talk page said that he believes he should be deliberately introducing a double redirect, and I left a message on his talk page that this was in violation of WP policy. He reverted again. I realize that I myself edited this article three times in 24 hours, and I understand that I am also responsible for violating 3RR. I will be more cautious in the future, and will follow protocol more closely.

I would also like to note that this is not the only article he is reverting to create double redirects. A look at his contributions will show a number of edits creating double redirects after I had left a message asking him to stop.

Other recent violations of the 3RR rule include:

-- Merope Talk/Review 21:29, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

This isn't 3RR, because its not within 24h or even close. But it does seem to be a rather pointless campaign against policy and several other users, so I think a short block to point that out is probably a good idea. 8h William M. Connolley 21:40, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

There can be different ways to hide sicjpuppetry, asking your friends to do it for you. This is even worse than doing it yourself--Axam 00:07, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
User:Jeff3000 seems to not understand that when we refer to Iranian people, all ethnic groups are included. In Tehran, the capital, the people are not only persian but turks, kurds, gilkais, mazandaranis, lurs etc. Thus the correct link should be toward Iranian people and not Iran, since it is not the country that acts but its citizen.--Axam 00:07, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Another badly formatted report, which I've partly fixed. At least one of your reverts listed is a removal of pure vandalism [363]. I suggest that you go through and remove the junk from your report, and put the times in as you are supposed to. Better still, examine your own actions in this William M. Connolley 09:20, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

  • Reverting vandalism does not count as a revert (!). El_C 09:23, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
  • I beleive this should be posted at WP:ANI (Stick to the Facts had posted the other user at WP:AIV already, which I just happened to be watching at the time). This seems to be a content dispute of some kind, and administrator intervention would really help.--KojiDude (viva la BAM!) 09:22, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
In my defense, only two of these edits are genuine reversions, relevant to the content dispute that's on-going.
  • The 1st & 4th edits cited here were reversions of simple vandalism by an anonymous IP user.
  • The 2nd edit restored material that had been inadvertantly deleted.
  • The 3rd edit restored material that had been deleted for being uncited, and provided citation for that material.
The 5th and 6th edits ARE genuine reversions, resulting from a content dispute. User:Stick to the facts has added this material repeatedly. Four different users have deleted it, and it has been extensively discussed on talk.
I sincerely believe I have acted in good faith, and I have great respect for Wikipedia policies. If my edits violated policy (or even if you just feel they were inappropriate), let me know, and I will immediately self-revert and apologize.
--Alecmconroy
  • Even after WMC fixed the report, your diffs remain unclear. While I did notice he made a few reverts today, I'm willing to overlook these in light of the potential for my recent edits to resolve the dispute, and providing no further reverts are made by the editor in the next 24 hours. El_C 11:48, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
But is it a matter of 'overlooking it in the interests of peace', or did I not do anything wrong? In my mind, I made two edits which consciously reverted the page in question, to prevent the insertion of material which, after much discussion, had a pretty substantial (4-1) consensus against it. I did this based on the understanding that my other edits were not reversions, and that the appropriate thing to do in the situation was to make the edits I did.
Blocking aside-- should I not have done what I did? This edit war seems to be have concluded, but for the future-- DID I do anything wrong, such that you're willing to overlook it? Or did I do what you're supposed to do? --Alecmconroy 23:43, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments:This user has been blocked for 3rr violations before (see block log). Plus, if one looks at his edit summaries, he has clearly not observed WP:Civility and has made accusatory attacks both against myself and the other involved user User:Gamesmasterg9. While technically, the first and last reverts are 26 hours apart (not 24), it seems to me that he is clearly violated the spirit of WP:3RR by engaging in persistent revert-warring with User:Gamesmasterg9 over the issue of merging the article in question with another article.As a reference to his attitudes, I point the admin to the talk page Talk:Votebank where Gamesmasterg9 has provided what seems to me to be adequate reasons for his position, and Ikonoblast (formerly User:Holywarrior) has responded pejoratively to him and with persistent incivility, lending weight to the point that he intends to revert-war further.Hkelkar 10:48, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

I agree with User:Hkelkar on the need to block User:Ikonoblast. This is not the first time he has engaged in egregious edit wars. Previously, he violated the 3RR on the article Mamta Kulkarni [386], but he gave up on that issue, so I let is slide. He has an unfortunate habit of treating edits to pages created by him as personal violations, and I have no doubt that he will indulge in such behaviour again, if unchecked.Gamesmaster G-9 20:57, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments: Several editors, including User:Bayerischermann, User:CovenantD and and User:Charlesknight have left posts on this anon-IP's talk page, to no avail. He was temporarily blocked by User:Steel359 at 21:24, 17 September 2006, but came right back when his 48 hours were up. He is a non-stop vandal, clearly dismissive of the rules, with the only intent being to spread links to his personal blog. Since blocking only made him so obstinate that he's 3RR'd, and since he doesn't seem to have any interest in making worthwhile contributions, it might be time to think about banning this IP. -- Tenebrae 13:53, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Slightly dodgy, this. I've blocked, but not CovenantD, although C has broken 3RR too, not too sure of the immunity status of rm linkspam William M. Connolley 20:51, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments:

  • User has been harassing me with bogus sock-puppetry allegations for several days. (I have no idea why; I don't know this user at all and I haven't been editing often for the last few months). S/he opened a sock-puppet case against me [447]; the case was closed, so I removed the sockpuppet template from my user page. The case page doesn't actually include any evidence against me; it appears to be targeting three other users. Frankly, I'm just sick of the harassment. | Mr. Darcy talk 20:28, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
Note - At the current time, MrDarcy's userpage is protected by me. Mykungfu is blocked 24 h for restoring the templates after I asked him not to (pending RFCU).

Comments:

User has been blocked for 3RR in the past. The first two reverts are partial. A.J.A. 06:12, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

The date and times reported above are not accurate. These 4 reverts span over two days, most being the 22nd, today (three) , and the others from the previous day, and part of compromise that was solved, with another editor. I'd happy self-revert if this is a 3RR violation. And please look at talk which I have relied in in order to work out editing issues. In anycase, I happy refrain from reverting (see how I did not revert and used the talk), and I will impose on myself a self-ban from making any further reverts this week to show that I indeed wish to follow the 3RR rule. Therefore given my pledge to self revert and to abstain from reversions, and given that the purpose of block on editors is strictly for prevention of edit warring and not to be punitive, I ask that no block be issued, even if I did slip in this case. Thanks.Giovanni33 06:48, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
You probably have your time zone set differently. Posting on Talk is hardly a license to violate the 3RR, even if you are dealing with a permanently shamed "repudiated person". A.J.A. 07:05, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
That might explain it. I show these 4 reverts span over two days. Also, I do not make an excuse; there is no liscence to violate 3RR. I state it was an accident if it did occure, and my intention is clear that I do not intend to revert, which is why I left it your 3rd revert in the condition you left it and argued my case on talk, instead. There is no danger of me contining to revert here, and I say if I did go over 3 reverts it was an accident that I'd gladly self-revert on. Blocks, which you seek, are to be used as prevention, not punishment.Giovanni33 07:10, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Since I am apparently that "another editor", I won't take an action but will comment here. Giovanni33 (talk • contribs) have clearly violated WP:3RR (within 24 hours) and denying this fact does not look good. He generally misbehaved there (mass solicitations, insisting on unreliable sources, trolling, etc). I am sorry to see his history of disruptive edits go on. ←Humus sapiens ну? 07:10, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
I did not deny the fact, I said if I did do it, it was an accident. I do deny any alleged "misbehaving" as my only goal is to improve the article in question, for which I have support of other editors and for which there has been progress in improving the article to conform to NPOV guidelines--but this is not a place to talk about article content, its about 3RR rule. Since I pledge not to revert on my own accord no block is necessary against me. Block are to be preventive not punitive. I can continue to improve other articles and stick to the talk page for this article.Giovanni33 07:14, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments:User insists on having the template set up according to his tastes (repeatedly stating that his way looks best "for everyone"). I've tried to make the page look better aesthetically by justifying some of the names, and separating their E.P. into its own section, and properly use full album names. The user will not even discuss the issue democratically, and when he does, he responds with patronizing language (see [480]) that is not suitable for this type of forum, forcing me to use to similar words but to no avail. I do believe he thinks he own the R.E.M. pages. At least, this one.

Comments: Note that the first edit came from an IP address, but it is fairly obvious it's the same person. It would also appear from the username that the user is, in fact, the creator of the theory in question (Donald Wortzman). They were warned on their talk page. Unfortunately I cannot revert their changes myself, or I would be in violation of this rule...but it is obvious that the material is original research which is not wanted in the article (there is already a discussion on the talk page to remove other pseudoscience theories which are far more longstanding in the article than this one).

The first edit wasn't a revert, so a 3RR violation hasn't occurred. I'll leave the user a warning, though. Extraordinary Machine 22:13, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
