[edit] Block 2
Date/Time of block: 23:21 on 21 March 2008
Article(s) involved: List of countries and outlying territories by total area
User(s) blocked: User:Tubesship[18] [19], User:70.49.152.70[20] [21]
Reason(s) for block: WP:3RR violation on List of countries and outlying territories by total area
Warning(s) given: None by User:Tango. Message on talk page of IP from User Tubesship at 23:05, 21 March 2008 requesting end to edit war[22]
Noticeboard info: From ANI-User:Tubesship requests help with anonymous IP on the article at 22:49, 21 March 2008; some discussion of dispute resolution occurs after both parties blocked for 3RR [23]
Subsequent actions by Tango: Extended conversation with User:Tubesship on user talk page[24]. Discussion of the 3RR rule, explanation of why IP's edit was not considered vandalism, Tubesship's request that autoblock be lifted as others use the same proxy, no offer to lift block once new user understood rule.
Subsequent actions by other admin(s): None
Additional Notes: (1) The edit war had started several hours earlier at 01:42 with edits by another IP, which were reverted by User:Polaron and User:Parsecboy; it could be considered a slow edit war, with 2 IPs and 3 registered regular editors. (2) User:Tubesship registered his account on 26 February 2008. Editing was in articles relating to Kosovo, a few miscellaneous articles, and a discussion with an experienced user with respect to image copyright ("Please help a greenhorn understand the difference between public domain and wiki commons").
[edit] Block 3
Date/Time of block: 17:35, 30 January 2008
Article(s) involved: Pure Reason Revolution Edit war over whether or not the references given supported the statements in the article. No talk page discussion. The edit war appears to have been the result of recent changes patrol, based on the contribution histories of the other editors involved. Blocked user reverted by four other editors, including Tango. [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36](Reversion by Tango)
User(s) blocked: User:Justpassinby[37], [38]
Reason(s) for block: Vandalism
Warning(s) given: 29 January (for different edits to article): Level 1[39], level 2[40]; 30 January: level 3[41], level 4[42]
Noticeboard info: None identified. Block appears to have occurred during RC patrolling
Subsequent actions by Tango: None identified
Subsequent actions by other admin(s): None identified
Additional Notes: 1) Blocked user appears to be a single purpose account, editing solely on this and one other related article, plus various user and project pages related to these articles. Prior to 29 January, he had only 16 edits since registration in March 2007. Signed his edits on the article. Consider possibility he was a member of, or related to, the subject band. 2) Blocked user has subsequently been blocked indefinitely by User:Jpgordon[43]. 3) The blocked account was correct, in that the reference sources did not support the content in the article. It appears the RC patrollers never actually checked the edits for correctness. 4)Blocked user had also edited the article the day before, and had communicated with editor reverting him on the second editor's talk page[44], at which point the second editor stopped reverting.
[edit] Block 4
Date/Time of block: 20:14, 1 September 2007
Article(s) involved: Subregion
User(s) blocked: User:67.71.251.74[45], [46], User:AlexCovarrubias [47], [48]. IP blocked 24 hours. AlexCovarrubias blocked one month.
Reason(s) for block: Three-revert rule violation: 3RR on Subregion
Warning(s) given: None on either user's talk page. None on talk page of article.
Noticeboard info: 3RR[49]; no discussions identified on ANI or AN.
Subsequent actions by Tango: User:AlexCovarrubias, posting as an anonymous IP, requests Tango to reconsider block length on 2 September on Tango's talk page. [50]. Tango deletes messsage[51]. Tango unblocks user then reblocks for 2 months[52].
Subsequent actions by other admin(s): RFCU report by User:Picaroon[53]. Unblock by Picaroon[54] on 19 September, identifying AlexCovarrubias agreed to limit himself to 1 revert per day.
Additional Notes: 1) AlexCovarrubias had a history of 3RR violations at the time of Tango's block, and his previous block for 3RR was for one month. The initial block was consistent with usual practice. 2) The block message left on the blocked user's talk page did not contain a link to the "unblock" template. 3)Additional exchanges on this case appear to have taken place via email with one or more administrators.
[edit] Block 5
Date/Time of block: 18:08, 27 August 2007
Article(s) involved: Stargate Atlantis
User(s) blocked: User:Andromeda[55] [56], User:88wolfmaster[57] [58]
Reason(s) for block: Edit warring on Stargate Atlantis
Warning(s) given: To User:Andromeda 15 Aug [59] to use edit summaries on Stargate Atlantis; 20 Aug[60], 3RR warning.
Noticeboard info: None identified.
Subsequent actions by Tango: Prior to blocks, protected page on 22 Aug[61]. Tango subsequently attempted to mediate on article's talk page, 2-3 Sep; one of the editors involved has not edited the article since (no suggestion Tango had anything to do with that).
Subsequent actions by other admin(s): None identified
Additional Notes: 1) Two editors with different visions of what the article should be, one more recalcitrant than the other. Slow edit war over several weeks, with other users identifying that one user's various attempts at consensus were preferred over the other's. Page history[62], talk page history[63]. 2) Neither editor had made any edits on the page for over 36 hours when they were blocked. 3) Tango is very involved in articles related to this subject, and mentioned his work in this topic during his RfA.

Additional Notes: 1) User:Deadriene16 has subsequently changed names to User:Poison the Well. 2) This is an edit war where one user (Arabic X) was making genuine improvements to the article, only to be constantly reverted by Deadriene to include an obviously inappropriate image. Arabic X had attempted to start a talk page conversation[69] and had reported to 3RR before violating the rule himself, made only 3 reverts. (Note: Description of incident is changed since short version).
