Comments:

Ankurc.17 keeps adding a tournament to the above page, which fails the inclusion critera that was agreed by the Cricket Project last year. I explained this here on their talkpage and have offered to help discuss this further.

However, they've just simply ignored the WP:CONSENSUS that was reached, and my offer to discuss this further was also ignored. The only comms I've had is via their edit summaries, such as this one that ends with "Also stay away from my user page" and this personal attack calling me a bully.

For every instance of the text being added, I went to the user's talkpage to explain why it should not be added, before removing it myslef. I'd forgotten until now, but I've had a previous similar experience with this editor (March 2018) about edit-warring where the user was warned about edit-warring AND to stop with the personal attacks.

Blah blah blah.... The user is a bully and can't stand when some one else stands up to him.... Ban me or block me... but this so called bully cant be allowed to get away... I am not the first person with whom he has had issues... It should be noted that this guy has had issues earlier as well with many other people....

--Ankurc.17 (talk) 19:16, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

It's true, I've been blocked before, however since my last unblock early last year, I have had zero problems with anyone. If you can find any evidence to contradict this, then you are more than welcome to supply it here. I'm not sure how explaining a project consensus, in polite terms with the offer to discuss further is "bullying". You edit summaries and reply here suggest you don't want to be helped in this matter, with your continued edit-wars and personal attacks, despite being told not to do this previously. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 19:22, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

Discussing something before deleting is not an offer for discussion.... And since there is no written proof about not adding any tournaments with International status.. Dont really get your objections... --Ankurc.17 (talk) 19:28, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

The enemies of god never tried to discuss the point in article talk page nor in my talk page. He did not answer to my post on his talk page, although the use of an IP login for his last revert (with edit summary "No nedd D.Lazard) is an indication that he has read my posts. Also, he edits regularly since 2007. So, he is not a new user who may ignore Wikipedia rules. D.Lazard (talk) 14:58, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [15]

Comments:

This page is constantly suffering from edit-warring from IPs and most recently wikipuffery which resulted in a ban to those users and requiring auto-confirmed or confirmed access. Now this IP user is constantly reverting the revert of his/her/their initial change. There is a discussion on the talk page (where it becomes clear of the same user's IPV6 address usage, same subnet in reverts and reply). I noticed that when another user challenged this user to provide credible information/source on the claim, and asked why he/she/they are warring, the reply was "listen to your own advice hypocrite." in the revert message. 14:03, 18 January 2019.

The funny part is the change that they are trying to make despite the complete opposite being written in the first line of the same paragraph! It states - "Columbia has three official undergraduate colleges." - accurately from the source. The user adds "The fourth undergraduate college, Barnard College..." and proceeds to add it to the dropdown list, clearly not even reading the paragraph they are editing. Which can be easily nullified from Columbia's Official website [16] "three undergraduate schools". It's hard but I will still want to assume good faith, that the user is confused about the distinction of schools from the "greater Columbia University community" - where there are many (20 total from all affiliates), including undergraduate and graduate schools, and "Undergraduate schools from Columbia University", where there are 3 - as stated by Columbia itself. The article is about Columbia University and it should follow the official sources from Columbia University to maintain this distinction. I have included this information from the official sources with the hope that the user now understands the change and follows WP:POINT. (TF Munat (talk) 20:48, 18 January 2019 (UTC))

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [diff]

1. On the user's talk page

Comments:

• I have already explained to the editor that a discussion at Talk:New York City dictated that the primary name for the City of New York, except in circumstances where it could be confused with the state, is "New York". The user has failed to accept this, saying that the discussion related only to the infobox of the New York City page. While true, it was decided to change the title of that infobox because the name "New York City", both in real life and in Wikipedia, is primarily a disambiguator; the primary, and most common name is "New York". In these circumstances on the New York (state) article, there is no possible confusion due to mention of city nearby or, in one case, a list of cities. They have violated the 3 revert rule also, and failed to properly listen to me. IWI (chat) 13:25, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

Response: Once IWI was reverted for inappropriately extrapolating a discussion's outcome to other articles (which he admits above) and was first reverted, he should have just stopped. Instead he has continued to revert, both in the above article and at Los Angeles, where he's been reverted by multiple editors. He really needs to stop acting as though his extrapolation has any consensus and just walk away from the idea. But as seen by the refusal to stop after he was first reverted he does seem to have an issue with that. oknazevad (talk) 13:34, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

I don’t quite understand how that is inappropriate; since people agreed that the primary name is "New York" (no not just in the infobox but generally), saying "Largest city: New York City" is nonsenseical as nobody is going to think that Largest city in New York State – is New York State. Therefore, the disambiguating word "city" can be removed. Like I said, another conclusion in that discussion was that "New York City" is primarily a disambiguator. Also, that isn’t an adequate reason to break the three-revert rule, Oknazevad. IWI (chat) 13:42, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

While some contributors explained that as their reason for supporting the shorter infobox header, not all did, and more importantly that was not the topic of discussion. The discussion was exclusively about the infobox. It is inappropriate extrapolation to assume that just because someone might agree with displaying an infobox header one way that they would support removing the use to the word "city" in every instance where the word "city" is nearby.

PS, I didn't break 3RR. The first two edits above are considered one revert, not two, as there were no intervening edits.

PPS, don't need to ping me here. It's on my watchlist. oknazevad (talk) 13:50, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

You did break the 3 revert rule, you made 3 reverts. IWI (chat) 14:56, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

The 3RR is more than three reverts. oknazevad (talk) 15:03, 19 January 2019 (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. Generally, please discuss this rather than continuing to revert each other. ∰Bellezzasolo✡ Discuss 15:18, 19 January 2019 (UTC)
  • @Bellezzasolo: Yes but reverting repeatedly against consensus violates policy, even if he thinks it doesn’t apply; it does. IWI (chat) 18:22, 19 January 2019 (UTC)
    • A consensus over a narrow discussion at one article is not a universally applicable consensus, despite your repeated assertions. And reverting during discussion is still edit warring. oknazevad (talk) 19:28, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

• No violation – You need an admin to close this report, though the result is the same. The first two diffs are consecutive, so 3RR was not broken. Please get consensus on the talk page instead of going on indefinitely. EdJohnston (talk) 02:59, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

User:Dilidor reported by User:Andy Dingley (Result: Agreement)

This started as 3RR on Los Angeles-class submarine a few days ago, with bulk stripping of wikilinks, reverted by @Thewolfchild:. I warned them on user talk:, which was blanked immediately, indicating that they had read this and were aware of the issue. It continued today though, with reversions against @BilCat:, who also issued a warning and was reverted.

Mostly though, this is about a long-running pattern of edits from someone who describes themselves as "a professional editor". Clearly other editors are a lesser species, and our views count for nothing. After all "This user can do no wrong, especially when it comes to editing Wikipedia.". Particularly when we disagree with Dillidor's editing style, which mostly seems to consist of stripping wls (including removing all links from one article to another, even when it's a significant relationship). There is long-standing opposition to this, from a range of editors, relating to a range of articles. See User talk:Dilidor#"Overlinking" and other comments there. But the response has been "dismissive" to say the least, and they'te happy to >3RR edit-war to push their viewpoint, which makes it impossible for policy-observing editors to do anything about. Thus ANEW. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andy Dingley (talk • contribs) 13:51, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

• Also see User talk:Dilidor#Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion Andy Dingley (talk) 19:44, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

Comments:
I will point out that a "war" requires at least two parties, yet Thewolfchild was not warned for his or her part in the conflict. But the bigger issue here is the hypocritical charges being leveled by Andy Dingley. He is incensed by a perceived supercilious attitude in me—while he snidely foists upon me his own attitude that "other editors are a lesser species". He quotes my humorous use of a meme that is used widely on Wikipedia, choosing to ignore its tongue-in-cheek intention in order to build up his straw man portrayal of my character. He claims that my editorial contributions "consist of stripping" wikilinks; this demonstrates either a gross ignorance of my edits around Wikipedia, or else a deliberately false statement. I will offer the benefit of the doubt and assume that Andy Dingley is simply ignorant.

I object to Andy Dingley's persistently abusive tone, both here and on my talk page. It is this tone which has brought me to the point of choosing to cease my participation in this discussion. If others wish to discuss it in a civil and respectful fashion, I will be happy to respond. Otherwise, I'm done. –Dilidor (talk) 17:17, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

User:Dilidor is risking a block if he continues with what appears to be aggressive stripping of wikilinks. These removals are often reverted, and it seems that many editors disagree with his practices. One way he could address the criticism is to accept a 1RR restriction on his link removals. That is, he could agree not to restore any of his link changes if someone else reverts it. Dilidor was previously warned at ANI about his copyediting practices. At that time, User:Swarm said "Dilidor is strongly warned that any future reversions that contradict WP:COPYEDIT or WP:MOS will likely result in a block without further notice or warning." It is natural to see the conduct reported in this AN3 complaint as a violation of the previous warning. But if Dilidor would agree to the proposed 1RR on link removals, I think the edit warring complaint could be closed without other action. EdJohnston (talk) 17:54, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

Certainly I will agree to that. Permit me to reiterate it, however, so that it is clear what I believe to be agreeing to: I will not unrevert another editor's reversion of my reduction of wikilinking. I want to be clear here because there have been issues in this conflict where I had not understood details concerning terminology and expectations. For example, I had no idea that I was expected to adhere to "3RR"; indeed, I did not clearly understand what that shorthand term meant. I have already been excoriated by Andy Dingley for the fact that I did not fully understand these things, and so do not need to be told such again. But if I have clearly comprehended your proposal, I am happy to comply with it.

Please also clarify the timeframe of these expectations. —Dilidor (talk) 18:07, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

You were first warned for edit warring, with the appropriate warning template and links to 3RR etc., in March 2017. You have been repeatedly warned since. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:16, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

Dilidor's claim that they are unaware of what 3RR means is laughable. They have been warned about violating the three-reverts guideline (and linked to the guideline) on multiple occasions, and have even reported users for violating the guideline! Dilidor has a long history of edit-warring, almost always over removal of links and other MOS issues. Note especially the formal warning here which has been totally ignored. If anything the behaviour has gotten worse since then. Based on the user talk page Dilidor is coming into conflict every few weeks with other editors over the same issues, and has done zero self-reflection despite editors repeatedly explaining Wikipedia policies. Ivar the Boneful (talk) 18:39, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

I suggest that the restriction will be 'Dilidor will not revert any editor who undoes their removal of a wikilink'. This means they will stop doing any of the kinds of edits listed at the head of this report as diffs #1-5. The restriction will be indefinite unless it is successfully appealed at WP:AN. EdJohnston (talk) 18:47, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

This type of behaviour can apply to any edit or revert they disagree with, not just edits involving wikilinks. A 24 hour block for edit-warring, followed by 6 months of 1RR across the board will certainly be more effective, and it's a restriction they shouldn't have too much difficulty understanding. - wolf 03:15, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

• Result: Agreement. I'm recording here that User:Dilidor is accepting the above proposal for a 1RR restriction on unlinking: 'Dilidor will not revert any editor who undoes their removal of a wikilink'. As they said above: Certainly I will agree to that. Permit me to reiterate it, however, so that it is clear what I believe to be agreeing to: I will not unrevert another editor's reversion of my reduction of wikilinking.

I never once said there was a consensus, In fact I challenge Bastun to quote me where I said that. I simply stated there was a lack of consensus for the inclusion of a sentence (there was) and so invoking WP:BRD I reverted. WP:ONUS states those who wish to make the new changes must gain a consensus if challenged. Bastun was challenged and he failed to gain a consensus and was thus reverted in compliance with wikipedia policy.213.65.195.254 (talk) 22:49, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

Not much to discuss here, with the IP at 10RR. General Ization ^Talk 02:08, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

You may note that

1. User:William Harris reverted four times within half an hour. Some kind of oversight not to mention that, was it?
2. The edit war happened 14 hours ago.
3. It resulted in the creation of a stub, to replace a link to a German-language article, and the replacement of unsourced non-free text with proper encyclopaedic content.
4. The user filing this report has nothing, apparently, to do with the situation, having made no recent edits to the article nor contributed to the talk page discussion which, although laced with insults against me (eg User:Oknazevad your attitude sucks, Get the eff off your high horse, your edits are pissant little powder trips, User:Cygnis insignis I would prefer that you piss off) at least brought the necessary improvements to bear.

. 146.198.193.75 (talk) 02:14, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

1. We are here to discuss your edits, not those of William Harris.
2. The fact that 14 (actually less than 10) hours have elapsed since the last salvo in the edit war doesn't absolve you of responsibility for edit warring.
3. Not at all sure what your point is, especially since you played no role in the creation of that stub.
4. The fact that I am an uninvolved party is one of the reasons I am entirely qualified to file this report.

Anything else? General Ization ^Talk 02:22, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

1. Does William Harris get a free pass, then? Why aren't you worried about his rule breaking?
2. It makes it pointless to do anything. So an edit war happened in the past, and now everybody is happy with the article. What's your interest in stirring? Also, in fact 15 hours have passed since my last edit at 11.30 UTC on 20th. It's now 02.30 UTC on 21st. What's the point of claiming that interval is "less than 10" hours? That's just bizarre
3. I made the necessity of its creation obvious. It was a positive outcome to the situation.
4. You're obviously just looking to stir up trouble. Try improving articles instead, it's better for the encyclopaedia. 146.198.193.75 (talk) 02:29, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

• Violation of the 1RR, in force for all articles related to the Syrian Civil War. He was blocked for violating the 1RR just a day ago, and returned to the familiar pattern mere hours after the block expired. He reported another user for the exact same thing just a few hours ago, so he is definitely familiar with what 1RR means. Mikrobølgeovn (talk) 23:41, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

I have self reverted before this report was posted. Jim7049 (talk) 23:42, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

He appears to have self-reverted before I reported him, so perhaps I was a bit quick on this one. I don't know whether a report is carved in stone once it has been posted, but I hope an administrator will take this into consideration. Mikrobølgeovn (talk) 00:03, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: No one warned Jorm

I came before the fourth revert was performed, and at the time unaware that he had already done three revisions. [diff]

Comments:

While these aren't actual diff links, I suppose yes, I 3RRD, as the 3rd revert was to fix the sixth(?) revert by a now-blocked editor who was engaged in drive-by tagging edit wars. It should be noted that this page is under full protection now because it is being brigaded by outside editors and SPAs, of which OP is one.--Jorm (talk) 04:22, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Shouldn't somebody have notified you when you were at your third revert? I am not super familiar with the process but it seems SOP to warn someone before the fourth revert was made. AKA Casey Rollins Talk With Casey 04:24, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

First, dude, the fourth link there isn't a revert of the same thing, so it's out of pocket for your argument. The first three are about the same content (not the fourth). My third revert was to fix the SIX REVERTS of the now-blocked editor. No one warned me because I didn't do anything wrong. --Jorm (talk) 04:27, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Also, wtf you're all "no one warned you, and I can't be bothered to have a discussion, but let's just jump to the noticeboard"? Please.--Jorm (talk) 04:35, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

• This will in all certainty be a WP:BOOMERANG. User:Michael.suede is a chronic warrior blocked for a month for trying to unwarrantedly insert Template:Overcoverage to undermine the article's sourced content. Both the filer and User:Ginjuice4445 inserted blatant promotional/synthetic language onto the page, with the latter using falsified refs and made WP:IDONTLIKEIT removals. Filer and the two editors are likely here today in response to the article subject's fourth canvassing call that targeted Jorm and me personally, so this report is transparently not opened in good faith. Tsumikiria (T/C) 04:29, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

I totally understand where you're coming from, but I'm reporting Jorm because of the reverts, not because of his edits on the Gab article, of which I do not approve. We disagree, but he should have the right to make those edits. Additionally, at this point I've also come to realize that Jorm didn't actually do anything wrong and I misread both the reverts and the terms of 3RRD, so I no longer believe he should be punished for anything. AKA Casey Rollins Talk With Casey 04:46, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

The fourth edit in this edit war reverted a bona fide contribution to the article. My edits to that page are always summarily reverted by Jorm or Tsumikiria on a summary basis without explanation. I have taken this up on the talk page where my well-sourced objections to the current management of the Gab page were met by Jorm with a "cool story, bro." This followed yet another, fifth revert of another good faith contribution I made to the page earlier in the day. The objective was to keep the page as he prefers it without regard for others' contributions. Jorm knew what he was doing and should not, frankly, have needed a warning, so I support a ban. Ginjuice4445 (talk) 04:52, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

My edits to that page are always summarily reverted by Jorm or Tsumikiria on a summary basis without explanation. What? GorillaWarfare (talk) 04:58, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Regulars on the page are frankly quite tired of Ginjuice's incessant sealioning and POV pushing that filled up the entire talk page. At least 7 editors, with 3 of them admins, have told them no. Per policy, blocks and bans are preventative rather than punitive, and the only editor who should be reprimanded, at the very least, would be Ginjuice. Tsumikiria (T/C) 05:00, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

None of that really has anything to do with this complaint. If you have different issues with Jorm, take that somewhere else, not here. AKA Casey Rollins Talk With Casey 05:05, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

This is Wikipedia, not a private members' club. As far as the Gab page is concerned, "regulars" have maintained a stranglehold on the page and now feel free to revert changes of alternative viewpoints - however minor or major - with total impunity. I've been attempting to introduce some balance to the article, as have others; all these attempts, however minor, get reverted by the "regulars." As long as we're on the topic, here's a sixth revert from Jorm today. Ginjuice4445 (talk) 05:06, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

The "balance" you were trying to bring is WP:FALSEBALANCE supported only by your idiosyncratic interpretation of sources. Since you're in a WP:1AM situation, you can open another RfC, escalate using dispute resolution, or just take it to WP:ANI, and finally, WP:ARBCOM, if you truly believe that people opposing you are at fault. No one is stopping you at this point. Tsumikiria (T/C) 05:17, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

I'm not the first person to complain about that page, just the most recent and the one willing to do the most work on the talk page to show how the article is being mismanaged. My position is set out on the talk page for anyone who cares to read it. In any case, that has nothing to do with this, which is about one of the "regulars" reverting a half-dozen or more good faith edits to the page that were adequately cited. I'm following Wikipedia's rules. Jorm isn't, which is why the article reflects Jorm's opinions and not the opinions of the three other editors who were trying to contribute to the article today and whose changes he reverted. Ginjuice4445 (talk) 05:22, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Look, I'm not super familiar with how the proceedings work, but I've done my duty; I saw something, I said something. I don't know if he needs to be punished or not, after all there have been a lot of "pro Gab" users making retaliatory edits due to Andrew Torba's social media posts. I want a balance between the anti-Gabbers and the pro-Gabbers. You're actually part of the problem because not only did you take my balanced edit too far, your description is inaccurate, as some of the content that breaks TOS (thus causing a Gab ban) is political, and users like Patrick Little have been banned from the site after they were pressured by hosting companies. This caused Tsumikiria to remove both your edit and mine. [[59]] And it's not like you didn't undo any of his edits, you're not totally innocent in this matter. Anyways, I'm not here to argue with you, we can do that somewhere else. I made a report. People will follow up. Until then, you should probably just relax Ginjuice4445. 1) Jorm had a right to make the edits that he made, even if they're biased 2) the page is locked anyways, so it's not like your kicking and screaming is going to change anything.

Comments:

This user has had two previous reports filed that lead first to a 24 hour block then a 4 day block. [78][79] It is clear that this user is not here for consensus based editing as each time they resume their previous pattern of editing that resulted in two blocks. They never explain their edits on talk pages. To me this has gone beyond edit warring and is now disruptive editing and WP:OWN. Alucard 16_{❯❯❯ chat?} 23:30, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Went back to self-revert, saw that it was done. Participating in the talk. Won't edit again until we can reach an agreement.CordialGreenery (talk) 05:13, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Also worth noting, every revert was not the same. I made attempts to add more citations in an effort to better source the claims. That being said, I'm not planning on doing it again. CordialGreenery (talk) 05:24, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

There were two 3RR notices left, which were both removed. I took the time to post a hand-written note instead asking them to please discuss instead of revert, which they have now removed as well. These notices were each left after the third, fourth, and fifth reverts respectively. Bradv🍁 05:37, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

The user obviously has an “Ariana Grande only” agenda, as the contribution history obviously shows. I get that we like who we like, but that doesn’t mean defy neutrality rules by continuing to remove reliably sourced information that you don’t like or changing the narrative of it when on the Talk page users are coming to a consensus that we include it because it’s widely reported. This is not about “other stuff exists” whataboutism regarding completely unrelated artist Kali Uchis. This is about the multiple allegations of Ariana Grande’s song 7 Rings. Despite notes reminding people to stop removing reliably sourced content, users such as this one continue to remove the entire section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trillfendi (talk • contribs)

Obviously it's not a 3RR case but edit warring. --Wario-Man (talk) 17:03, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

Wario-Man is indeed editwarring and putting harrassing insertions on my talk page. He will not engage in discussion and ignores my repeated assertions that these are (a) spelling corrections as well as (b) additions based on sources already provided in the article by other editors in previous editsXoltron (talk) 20:48, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

I) You just continued your edit warring even after I submitted this report.[95] II) When did I harass you on your talk page?![96][97] Even another user has warned you for writing inaccurate or inappropriate edit summaries.[98] III) Wow... I didn't participate in discussion?![99] It was you who ignored my comment and didn't reply to it. 8 Jan was your last activity and you just started edit warring on 24 Jan again! IV) Not only you have done edit warring, but you posted false accusation here instead of posting relevant stuff. --Wario-Man (talk) 21:31, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

• I suggest that administrators should revisit this report, because Xoltron reverted the article yet again after User:MSGJ's closure. And here, Xoltron removes a standard edit warring notice from his talk page, saying he was 'removing harrassment by User:Wario-Man', surely an overreaction. On the talk page you can see arguments about the Persian versus Arabic origins of various things; possibly the present dispute is related to that. EdJohnston (talk) 22:20, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

"Brand new" account (created 2 days ago), trying to change long-standing well sourced content on numerous articles through sheer edit-warring. Even though I and others (@HistoryofIran:) have requested him, on numerous occassions, to refer to the talk page (per WP:BRD and WP:BURDEN]), he does not care at all. Looking at the evidence, in combination with the fact that he instantly removed the 3RR warning from his talk page,[124] I think its safe to say that this account is here on a tendentious single purpose mission. - LouisAragon (talk) 18:58, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

Your absolute first interaction with me consisted in deleting everything that I've written, dismissing it as "historical revisionism" (despite me actually attempting to correct early twentieth-century historical revisionism with modern-day research) and attacking me for being a new user. I only deleted the "warnings" that you posted on my talk page, because you deleted those that I put on yours. I am here to complement outdated and disproven content with new, academically-backed material. Please try to be civil, and don't be of bad faith. Pikermerle (talk) 19:06, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

It appears that Pikermerle has already broken WP:3RR at Safavid dynasty family tree. Their version of the article always includes the unqualified claim that 'the Safavids were sayyids', while the prior version used more cautious language. They have now made this replacement five times, which gives them a total of four reverts. They may be able to avoid a block if they will agree to wait for consensus before making any more edits about the Safavids. EdJohnston (talk) 19:48, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

Unfortunately Pikermerle went on to make a further revert, even after this olive branch. I have blocked for 24 hours. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 22:54, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

What "further revert" and which "olive branch" are you referring to? I stopped editing these articles the moment I received a warning about the 3rd revert rule. The fact that you would block me after I stopped editing the articles and moved the discussion to the talk page is either a stupid mistake or highly ill-intentioned.

Due to the vandalism and BLP vio I did not bother issuing a 3RR notice before filing this report. I did, however, leave a DS alert about Climate change on the user's talk page. I don't think they have any contribs after I left the DS notice. DONTBITE is great when inexperienced users make oopsies but this case presents abundant objective evidence of bad faith, so I skipped the handholding. After posting the DS alert, this user added an inflammatory comment in this thread (see below, or if it later disappears see DIFF here). NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 13:17, 26 January 2019 (UTC)

1) You have violated 3RR rule and involved in edit warring. 2) You just restored older revision when you saw three other editors didn't agree with you and you failed to push your desired changes. And you did it after breaking 3RR and reverting other editors' edits. 3) Your edits were problematic. Even the part you call the sourced one; was just your personal opinion citing a random book that did not support it. You just don't like Michael Witzel and Christopher I. Beckwith's opinions and tried to discredit them by using odd wording and adding your very own POV. That's all. --Wario-Man (talk) 14:51, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

There is no instances of the word saka denoting a race in Pali Canon. The two authors are just publishing their own opinion pieces without providing any evidences from Buddhist scriptures themselves. You are presenting them as facts on the article. It is you who are being biased. The source I added clarifies that buddha's clan were never called saka in any of the buddhist scriptures.SureshK 67 (talk) 15:47, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

Perhaps useful to this discussion is this discussion on the same topic, on another page, that went into arbitration. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Shakya#Ethnicity The first edit of user:SureshK 67 I changed was because the syntax of the sentence was so faulty as to have unclear meaning.

• As a footnote to a necessary block, I'd observe that Sofia Airport has been a trouble spot for edit warring. It was fully protected 8 times in 2018. It might be helpful if editors would open discussion at WT:AIRPORTS when they find themselves repeatedly in disagreement on the airport's own talk page. The WP:AIRPORTS project has a few guidelines but I notice lots of repeated disputes. For example, about upcoming flight schedules that have been announced but haven't yet started. So, perhaps the WikiProject could add some more guidelines. EdJohnston (talk) 19:26, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

Comments:

Article was put under ECP and 1RR by EdJohnston because of edit warring by DBigXray. This is a clear violation of that 1RR as disruptive revert (by adding misleading edit summaries) concerned same thing at least 2 times under 55 hours. One can clearly see that DBigXray is removing content what he falsely claims to be a copyright violation when the content in question was properly attributed to Ministry of Law and Justice of India and is freely available.[170] He is removing more than what he claims as copyright violation which speaks of the recklessness. He has been also misrepresenting the references per discussion on talk page. 39.33.42.140 (talk) 03:28, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

I don't recall putting this article under a WP:1RR restriction. Please link to any evidence of this. EdJohnston (talk) 04:06, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

IP probably mistaken you with El C who put this article under 1RR restriction[171] and the page notice is also clear about it.[172] FWIW, you had warned DBigXray earlier for violating the 1RR back in July,[173] over this same article when he was edit warring by falsely claiming edits as "vandalism". This time he is falsely claiming them to be copyright violation to justify edit warring.  MehrajMir (talk) 04:26, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

• EdJohnston with the replies above it should be pretty obvious that we are dealing here with an elaborate sock/meat farm, who seem to be passing notes off-wiki and even then they are botching up what they should say and what they should not. Also I note that no one is explaining how this is a 1RR violation. --DBigXrayᗙ 05:19, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

• This is a content dispute, but clearly there has been no violation of 1RR as there was more than 48 hours between those two reverts. Please continue to discuss and do not replace the disputed material until there is consensus on the talk page. If protection is needed, please use WP:RFPP — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 13:24, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

• I think WP:GAMING clarifies how this was a 1RR violation. After being reverted you have to get consensus especially when your edits are problematic but that is not what DBigXray. He is just gaming 1RR to retain his problematic version. DBigXray is removing more content than what he falsely claims to be a copyright violation. He is misrepresenting references yet claiming the opposite on talk page. Also see the personal attacks he has made here. Do you really call this a content dispute? For now I hope Diannaa can clarify if there are concerns with copyright violations in the recent edits. 39.33.43.213 (talk) 14:04, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

• Properly attributed quotations are not a violation of the copyright policy. Excessive use of quotations can be a violation of the Non-free content guideline. Content must unquestionalby be a violation of the non-fre content guideline before it becomes an exemption to the edit warring rule. See WP:3RRNO for more details. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:19, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

• @Diannaa: Thanks. The question is if the deleted content in question really violates copyvio or violates WP:NFCC? The content is properly attributed to Ministry of Law and Justice of India and is freely available.[174] 39.33.43.213 (talk) 14:26, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

• Properly attributed quotations are not a violation of the copyright policy. What constitutes a violation of the non-free content guideline is a judgement call. It is recommended at WP:3RRNO that a discussion should take place on the article talk page to establish what counts as an exemption. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:32, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [182]

Comments:

The user has made substantial changes to various Airport articles, by removing the formatting and information of the Airport articles that a layman would consider useful information. I made a objection to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport in particular. He has provided some guidelines in edit summaries such as WP:NOTTRAVEL and WP:NOTGUIDE which I disagree with and would be more than happy to make a case against. I have asked the user multiple times in edit summaries to discuss changes in the article's talk page to resolve any kind of dispute. We have unfortunately engaged in an edit war and the user has seemingly refused to take me up on my offer and has decided to revert instead. I think a third party to resolve this dispute is essential. I mean no harm and do not in any way mean to be hostile, I would just like this to be resolved in a positive manner. If any admin feels we both need to be blocked, I will accept that. 76.183.136.144 (talk) 18:45, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

Per Discretionary Sanctions on all matters pertaining to the Syrian Civil War, which Khalek has written about, Flickotown is in blatant violation of WP:1RR. CaradhrasAiguo (leave language) 23:59, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

This hysterically malformed edit warring complaint is a gross and despicable attempt at battlegrounding, especially as I have had no prior interaction with this particular user before. There is no edit warring User:Philip Cross and I are basically in agreement with the changes (which explains why there is none of the back-and-forth undoing of revert pattern that you see in a legitimate case of edit warring) and an edit similar to the one which User:Rafe87 made was almost instantaneously reverted by another user, thus proving the validity of my edit summary that there had already been extensive discussion on the material in question on the talk page and in the edit summaries. The discretionary sanctions argument would not apply either as neither the Khalek article nor any of my contributions to it has had anything to do with the Syrian Civil War; I would have adhered to them had I known that they applied. Administrators should note that there was no attempt by this user to resolve the so-called dispute first and also be aware that this user is wikihounding some of my edits. Flickotown (talk) 00:44, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

Typical WP:WIKILAWYERING response: in the case of the discretionary sanctions, it matters not the purpose of your reverts. You clearly crossed the line. And citing this edit (the edit summary of which is typically used by IP vandals), reverted by Huggle, does not prove your claim that there was "extensive discussion" on Khalek's talk page. A brief examination of the talk page history reveals there have only been substantial edits made there today, mostly involving yourself. No one is going to be fooled by the Trump-like claim you made.

As to Xi Jinping, which is on my watchlist, my edit there actually incorporated the reference you added. Yet another typical distortion in a vain display of WP:NOTTHEM. CaradhrasAiguo (leave language) 00:53, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

Comment Nevertheless, you have made a significant number of reverts over the last 24 hours - apart from the four mentioned above, there are further ones at 19:18, 17:22 and also at 21:32 yesterday. I can't see that any of them are covered by WP:3RRNO, either. Not to mention that this is an account with 84 edits that appears not to be a new editor. As far as I can see, there is no reason not to apply a 3RR block here. Blocked for 31h. Black Kite (talk) 00:59, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

There is also this gem. I read Chinese, and all the user quoted was saying was that they lamented a lack of Chinese media sources to gauge the response of the Chinese public. Idiotically using Google Translate to distort it as "ethnonationalism" (and there is no evidence the user even is of Chinese descent; anyone can concoct a username in any language) indicates the only user in that instance with a WP:NOTHERE mentality is Flickotown.

User: 76.183.136.144 (Result: See later report)

This user keeps reverting the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport page back to how he thinks it should be. A while back, I cleaned up and streamlined sections of the page (particularly the Terminal section) to remove excessive information, some of which violates policies such as WP:NOTEVERYTHING, WP:NOTTRAVEL, etc. However, this user came back a month later and reverted it back because he claims I did not have “consensus” to make the changes. However, no one is objecting but him. I have done similar things to other airport articles and have had little issue. The airport pages are often cluttered with excessive information put in by aviation enthusiasts and some of it could be condensed and summarized. He has yet to demonstrate how my edits violate anything. Please deal with him. Arnoboro (talk) 18:27, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

• Sorry, this is a big pile of spoiled hummus. Others have stepped in and edited the article along the lines I favored, and if you look to the talk pages, the reporter has not engaged in substantive discussion. Neither the reporter nor I have crossed 3rr. This should be closed, as the article appears to now be stable. John from Idegon (talk) 04:23, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

Comments:
The same user was reported for edit warring on the same page less than a week ago, [188]. They conveniently space out their reverts through the course of several days to avoid violating 3RR directly. In my opinion that is WP:GAMING the system and should result in a block. They are constantly pushing fan agenda on the 7 Rings article and removing the reliably sourced criticism people add, [189]. Regards--NØ 16:23, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

The report for edit warrring last week is irrelevant as it was decided that there was no violation. I don't "conveniently space out" my reverts, that's just when I happen to edit, and I'm not WP:GAMING the system. At no point was there any attempt to resolve the dispute that I was aware of, I was told to take my dispute over the plagiarism accusations to the talk page and I did, but that wasn't the case with the dispute over the article from The Atlantic. I'm not trying to be disruptive or push a "fan agenda", I just genuinely thought that having an entire section for the plagiarism accusations when there's not been any legal action taken is excessive and isn't being neutral, and I honestly think that the article from The Atlantic shouldn't be included as it's a takedown not a review and therefore including it is being negative towards Ariana rather than neutral. I backed down over the plagiarism accusations and I plan to back down on this, I'll even take a break from editing the page if necessary to avoid a block. Fan4Life (talk) 20:46, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

WP:GAMING of the system does not necessarily need to be intentional. Waiting two days and removing a source which you were told not to remove again, and that too twice in succession is exactly that. It's not co-operative and is disruptive. Not to mention you've also been edit warring on other Grande articles here and here, and have also added an unsourced writing credit for "NASA" which does not appear on iTunes and have still refused to remove it: [190]. You're a textbook definition edit warrior and do it most of the times to push fancruft and I see no reason you should be let off without at least a formal warning or short block.--NØ 07:41, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

I am not being disruptive. The writing credit on NASA is sourced, Joan Grande is a reliable source. Don't make false accusations against me. Fan4Life (talk) 19:50, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

I literally linked the diff so it’s not a “false” accusation. Obviously a singer’s mother and best friend’s twitter accounts are not reliable sources for a writing credit which doesn’t actually show up on iTunes. Besides, this is about your edit warring which you have done on multiple Grande articles, including one more recent instance of several consecutive reverts at Sweetener World Tour which I haven’t linked here. Stop trying to make a strawman argument and save face.—NØ 20:38, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

What you linked to proves nothing. Saying that Joan and Victoria aren't reliable sources is ridiculous, you're suggesting that they're lying, but that's not even relevant to this incident and neither are the things you're bringing up from my editing history. You are making false accusations as you have made baseless claims against me. Fan4Life (talk) 19:55, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

discussion in the talk page: [198]

Comments:

Skylax30 has been too eager to insert to the text the word "Macedonia" next to "Stagira", the place Aristotle was born. There is a huge discussion in the Talk Page of the article, (permalink) where various users have contributed their opinion, consensus has not yet been reached but Skylax30 is insisting to add his choice of words. Cinadon36 (talk) 11:16, 30 January 2019 (UTC) PS:Worth mentioning that in the Talk Page, he keeps commenting on me [199], [200], [201] despite other users asked him to stop. [202](latest:[203])Cinadon36 (talk) 14:53, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

It seems that user Cinadon36, influenced by the cyrrebt political affairs in Greece, decided to erase "Macedonia" from articles. Today I added in the article half a dozen of academic publications about Aristotle, mentioning Macedonia after Stagira, to inform their readers where Stagira is (are). Toponym "Chalkidiki" is also used, but is unknown to most WP readers. Cinadon36's contribution to the discussion is what we call "the ball out of the field". He is insisting on the historicity of "Macedonia" as a political entity in Aristotle's time, which is irrelevant. Actually, HE is warring.--Skylax30 (talk) 11:24, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

• Result: User:Skylax30 is warned they may be blocked if they revert again at Aristotle without getting a prior consensus in their favor on the talk page.

Comments:
This edit war began with an 18 January simplification of references via AWB. Other than a brief discussion here (with reply by PeeJay2K3 here), no discussion has taken place (and none involving The Rambling Man). I asked both these longtime users to stop the edit war and discuss, but the reverting has now continued. S.A. Julio (talk) 17:46, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

As you can see from my edit summaries, I have repeatedly asked TheRamblingMan to bring his objections to some suitable forum, but he neither states his objections nor discusses them. I explained my changes in some detail on the talk page of PeeJay2K3 (here), who did not respond further, so I presume he at least found my explanation acceptable. Colonies Chris (talk) 17:58, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

And yet you continued edit warring against consensus, even after being warned by this independent party? How odd. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:40, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

• Neither editor comes out of this well I'm afraid. 12 reverts each? And over such a trivial issue too. This may merit an entry in the infamous WP:LAME gallery.  — Amakuru (talk) 21:54, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

  That much is true, but only one editor was editing against consensus, and only one editor continued to edit thus after the friendly warning from S. A. Julio. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:58, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

• There is still no resolution to this because TheRamblingMan refuses to discuss the issues which appear to concern him so much. He says my edits are 'against consensus' but the only objector is himself. My changes to that article include well over 100 separate gnoming edits - does he object to all of them? If not, which ones, and why? I fully agree that this dispute needs to be solved by discussion - I've said that over and over again - but it takes two to have a discussion. Colonies Chris (talk) 22:35, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

  I've lost count of the number of times I've told you that if consensus is against your edits, then you should move on. Yet you refuse to do so and continue to implement your semi-automated edits at will, and in this case, numerous times despite being told to leave the consensus-based version in place, worse in fact, once again today after being told to stop edit-warring. Now it's come to this, hopefully you will learn from it and not repeat the same mistakes. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:41, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Still not a single word actually identifying, let alone discussing, the underlying issues. Colonies Chris (talk) 23:06, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Yes, you continue to edit against consensus, imposing your own preferred style, despite being warned not to do so. You must stop edit warring, and revert your most recent edit warring edit. You were asked to stop by an independent editor. Please stop repeating the mistake. Incidentally, Amakuru, this is also a contender for lame edit war trophy, and has been going on on the same article a while longer! The Rambling Man (talk) 23:27, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Perhaps you could point out where this consensus was set, if it's not too much trouble, instead of issuing orders. --Calton | Talk 05:12, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

It was reviewed in that form as a GA, and has had multiple editors restoring the consensus. I'm sure you already are aware that consensus isn't always set by someone writing it in stone. And no, I'm not "issuing orders", I'm just stating that the other user has continually edit-warred to get his preferred version, even after being told to stop by a third party. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:30, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

This statement about "multiple editors restoring the consensus" is just not true. Only one other editor has raised any issues, and as I mentioned above, my explanation appears to have satisfied his concerns (explanation link here, again). The Rambling Man is the only objector, and he keeps avoiding any discussion of the reasons for his objection. Colonies Chris (talk) 09:29, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

As requested, and as I have already noted above, I have noted edited the article once I was asked to desist, unlike Colonies Chris who continued to edit war to get his preferred version in place. As also noted, Colonies Chris did not have any consensus at all and was reverted by at least two editors. In fact, if you go back over the history of the article, you'll see this isn't the first time Colonies Chris has engaged in edit warring on this specific article. I am walking away from it now, as it appears some others are looking for consensus from some other place, but do note that there is no consensus for the version that Colonies Chris continued to edit war even after being asked to stop. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:25, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

Despite my repeated requests, TRM has at no point explained what his objections are to my changes. The claim that "at least two editors have reverted" is intentionally misleading. In fact it is exactly two, one of them (repeatedly) himself, the other PeeJay2K3 who appears to have accepted my changes, as noted above. Without any explanation of TRM's objection, this is not discussion, it is bullying. Far from punishing me for edit warning, (which I accept this was), I would like the admins to prohibit TRM from continuing this bizarre personal vendetta against me; he should only revert when he's prepared to have an open discussion about his objections. Colonies Chris (talk) 16:57, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

I’m not edit warring any longer, are you? I won’t touch your edits again but you need to learn they aren’t welcome. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:07, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

• Result: Both User:Colonies Chris and User:The Rambling Man are warned. Each one could be blocked if they edit the article again without getting a prior consensus on the talk page for their change. EdJohnston (talk) 17:41, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

Comments:

Technically, there is not yet a 3RR violation, but the rules of why his edits are disruptive have been explained to the user, and he refuses to take part in the discussion beyond insisting that he is "fixing" the article to the "correct" information in the edit summaries. He also insults other users as "downies", "monkeys" and "donkeys" in the edit summaries, even after exhortations to remain civil. Even his choice of a user name seems to be intended to insult the other users.

It appears that the user first made his edits on this page with an IP-address, see the following diffs:

1. [232]
2. [233]
3. [234]
4. [235]
5. [236]
6. [237]

There was only a short overlap between this range of IP addresses and the first use of the proper user name, so this is probably not a valid case of a sockpuppet. This is clearly the same user, judging from his choice of insults in the edit summary.

Two more edits from a different range of IP addresses may also go back to the same user:

1. [238]
2. [239]

Finally, at the end of December 74.14.152.246 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) was also active on the page Eritrea, where he apparently also took on a real username, Pawnye (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), which was only used once for this purpose, pursuing the same agenda as on Languages of Ethiopia. If this was really the same user, this probably constitutes a case of sockpuppetry. Landroving Linguist (talk) 23:04, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

After being informed of this report, the user now for the first time engaged on the talk page, but only by repeating his usual insults, without addressing the points brought up by other editors:

1. [240]

Otherwise, he continues in his ongoing reverting just outside the 3RR parameters. Landroving Linguist (talk) 09:31, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

• I have been getting put through the stocks at VPP and ANI since yesterday. I proposed protection from closure debate, for WP:RD. I suggested that propriety should not be discussed in situ (on the same page). War ensued. My proposal has been destroyed and I have been experiencing a continuous and outnumbered attack since. All I did was propose the VPP and respond to the comments. Closure templates were applied within 90 minutes and a rouge attack began which I approached with good faith. Once I felt completely obstructed, I asked for help of an administrator. The rouge attack continued and increased greatly on ANI where it spilled out from. I breached no civility. I have not threatened the site. I reverted edits which are altering the nature of my talk page contributions. It is obvious why there is some urgency to control your talk page comments. I am well aware of the rules. This has been allowed to go on at ANI for hours. I made my fourth revert because it is directly about controlling my own statements. I've asked for help. ~ R.T.G 17:33, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

• There's been no attempt by this user to respond to the other editors who have been cleaning up his edits and trying to communicate on his talk page. Some of his edits are POV, others are unsourced, while still others are often bizarre. There may be a language barrier -- I've told him repeatedly that Betty White is not Canadian but he kept inserting the name in a list of Danish Canadians. There are other examples as well. As he doesn't communicate, it's impossible to tell if it's a competence issue or deliberate disruption. Some edits appear straight vandalism. freshacconci (✉) 01:27, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Cascorrin has constantly been changing an image to theres at Iveco Daily and has been edit warring over it, They tried editing as an IP[255] which ofcourse got them blocked, They've repeatedly been told to go the talkpage and get consensus however instead of doing that they've just been edit warring over it,

They've also edit warred across various projects where I'm now having to report them for edit warring on those respective projects so this isn't just an isolated problem,

Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 19:30, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

• The edit warring has spanned over a few days to weeks however given a block didn't solve anything I don't see how locking the article would be better, A block should've forced them to go the talkpage upon the block expiring, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 19:56, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

• Cascorrin has now decided to create another account and then revert me[256], SPI filed, Cheers, –Davey2010^Talk 23:15, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

• Cascorrin was previously blocked one week for the same thing back in January and the socking is obvious. I've warned Cascorrin they are risking an indefinite block, and invited them to respond here. If no response, a cross-wiki block should also be considered. EdJohnston (talk) 03:26, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

• Hi EdJohnston, Well apparently the other account is unrelated to Cascorrin although it was noted it could be them or another sock, Anyway given naff all's been done on those other projects I'm beginning to wonder if a cross-wiki block may be the best thing here, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 18:49, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

• See a previous discussion on the admin board of the French Wikipedia. Cascorrin made his own complaint in the section just below that. It seems Cascorrin also used 80.36.251.222 (talk · contribs) over there. Cascorrin has been making similar edits to the leading image of Iveco Daily on the English, French, German and Portuguese Wikipedias. EdJohnston (talk) 19:08, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

(edit conflict) I've since asked for a cross-wiki block as although the issues would stop here they wouldn't stop on the 3/4 other projects, Given the respective projects haven't even replied to the reports I'd made there I don't see any other option than a global block,

EdJohnston - Given the edits here are not all that frequent I would have no objections if this was declined, Many thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 19:10, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

It is likely that other projects (or the stewards) would pay more attention if an indef block is issued here. So I'll still consider doing that, but wait a bit to see if User:Cascorrin will respond. User:Seedsleds is not Cascorrin per the SPI. An apparent joe-job rather than meatpuppetry. EdJohnston (talk) 19:40, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

• Result: User:Cascorrin is warned they may be indefinitely blocked if they continue their revert war about the lead image of the Iveco Daily article. EdJohnston (talk) 16:55, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

A response by Ajraddatz over at Meta was enlightening. I'll keep that in mind for the future when noticing problematic edits being made by the same user at multiple Wikis. EdJohnston (talk) 16:00, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Oops sorry EdJohnston I was meant to have returned here after the discussion over there, Yeah it seems other than outright banning them from all projects there's not really much else that can be done, Anyway thank you for dealing with this it's much appreciated, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 16:14, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Because this situation involves so many pages, I've opted to explain the pattern in the Comments below, which has example diffs. My apologies to anyone used to the normal format for reports of edit warring.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [257]

Comments:

This is a case where the edit warring is across several dozen articles. The pattern goes as follows. An IP user (likely Iuscaogdan (talk · contribs)) edited the article to include the symbol ⟨ɱ⟩ in the IPA transcriptions of Italian. Ohnoitsjamie then used Rollback to revert this change, perhaps assuming that it's a contentious edit because of the "Non-autoconfirmed user rapidly reverting edits" tag. But then Iuscaogdan restored their edit with an edit summary that links explicitly to this discussion that establishes that their edit is consistent with consensus on the issue. This should have been sufficient for Ohnoitsjamie to see that there was consensus behind the edits. However, Ohnoitsjamie instead used Rollback] again, clearly not having read the link.

What makes the matter worse is that Ohnoitsjamie issued a spurious edit warring notice and then deleted Iuscaogdan's response that explained how their edits had consensus before issing a block notification.

This seems like a breach of the rollback feature that shows a problematic misunderstanding of when it should be used and possibly a violation of WP:INVOLVED if Ohnoitsjamie really blocked someone they were edit warring with. — Ƶ§œš¹ _{[lɛts b̥iː pʰəˈlaɪˀt]} 21:33, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

I don't understand why you're reporting this; I was rolling back anon reverts of your edits, back to what I thought was your version. An edit filter in WP:AIV detected a new anon IP doing a series of reverts. Your edit summary indicated that the version I thought I was rolling back to was based on some consensus editors had reached on an IPA talk page, a discussion I'm not involved with. Regarding your assertion that the IP (who you assume is User:Iuscaogdan) tried to explain that their edit was consistent with the conensus, I assume you're referring to this attack? I would've happily acknowledged a mistake if either of you had bothered to explain to me in a civil fashion that I was misunderstanding what was going on. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 23:53, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

• The easy stuff first: @Ohnoitsjamie: was not WP:INVOLVED, since they were enforcing what they (mistakenly) thought was consensus on a subject they weren't involved in. They were sort of edit warring, but the "accidental, remind to be careful" kind, not the "sanction" kind. Furthermore, it is clear that the IP editor is User:Iuscaogdan: see here and here, editing while logged out. Which is not a problem if people are editing non-disruptively (which they were, at the time).

The harder call: It would have been fantastic if Jamie had followed the link in the edit summary before reverting. After Jamie's first revert of the IP, it would have been fantastic if Iuscaogdan had explained what was going on. But do we punish the person who's been wronged for not reacting the way we want them to? I also really wish Iuscaogdan hadn't left this charming comment. I also wish Jamie hadn't blocked the IP and then the range for 1 week and 3 days, respectively, after that.

So this is an imperfect solution, but I'm going to (a) remind Jamie to be careful; if an IP editor is explaining what they're doing in an edit summary, you have an obligation to at least check that out. I'm also going to (b) unblock the IP range; while their douchy comment was unnecessary, enough went wrong on both sides that I think keeping the block in place is unfair. Finally I'm going to (c) remind Iuscaogdan about personal attacks, and that having an account, but editing while logged out and getting into fights in the same subject area as that account, can get you in serious trouble. I fear this will be considered unfair by both Jamie and Iuscaogdan, but it seems the best thing to do. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:09, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

I am happy to own up to my mistakes, but in this case I don't feel like any good-faith effort was made to alert me of them prior to reporting them here. I'm fine with the IP being unblocked along with your cautions to all involved. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 01:15, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Yes, I should have mentioned, @Aeusoes1:, if there's a similar situation in the future, please take the extra step of explaining what is going on before reporting them to a noticeboard. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:19, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

I had initially done that before I took a closer look and came to the conclusion that Ohnoitsjamie, by not looking at the edit summaries and talk page comments, was abusing Rollback. My gut told me that Ohnoitsjamie needed the teeth of a noticeboard to listen and I feel like my instincts were right. I'm satisfied with a warning. — Ƶ§œš¹ _{[lɛts b̥iː pʰəˈlaɪˀt]} 03:35, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

I feel like my instincts were right

aeusoes1. If your instincts are to use to use the noticeboards as a way to tattle on other editors in hopes of getting authority figures on your side as opposed to simply communicating with said editors, then I'll say that your instincts are dead wrong. --Calton | Talk 16:29, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

You're twisting my words to have a completely different meaning from what I said, which was that Ohnoitsjamie wouldn't listen if it was just me. Look at their above initial responses, as well as this edit summary where they admit no wrongdoing and act as if no one notified them of their mistake before they continued on when this is most clearly false.

If you think this is tattling or some sort of moral dependency, then you've apparently never seen an accused edit warrior attempt to weasel their way out of sanctions by arguing that they don't have a history of edit warring. I don't have a "side" in the matter beyond what looks like an abuse of administrator tools. The standards are high for administrators because the tools they have are powerful. I'm not going to be browbeaten for using the noticeboard appropriately. — Ƶ§œš¹ _{[lɛts b̥iː pʰəˈlaɪˀt]} 17:02, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Comments:

Editor in question is battling against numerous users and trying to push his desired revision into the article through edit-warring without having reached a WP:CONSENSUS. Numerous users have objected against his POV (incl. on the talk page), and have told him to build consensus first, but he does not care and keeps on hitting that revert button. Bear in mind that said user also tried to remove a long-standing consensus note from the talk page (calling it "undue, clean up"), so there are definitely deeper issues in relation to Redthoreau's editorial pattern on this page, other than just sheer disruptive edit-warring. - LouisAragon (talk) 13:19, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

• Redthoreau has not edited since your warning at 13:11. I agree that they are edit warring but (i) they have never been warned about this before and (ii) they have not yet breached 3RR and (iii) they are now using the talk page. So I think we should put this on hold and see how they respond and if they will now stop edit warring. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 15:20, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

I would dispute nearly every mischaracterization in this report, which conveniently leaves out all of the context of what occurred. For starters, [1] I have not done 3RR in the last 24 hours. Those edits are varying and not reverts. [2] I am using the talk page --> seen here. [3] I looked up the utilized reference for the claim he wants to preserve and found that is in fact INCORRECT, thus all I am guilty of is correcting it. [4] The dispute began because I believed Kurds should be referred to as “Iranic” rather than “Iranian”, for the same reason we semantically delineate between German / Germanic, Turkish / Turkic, Italian / Italic etc. In disagreement, LouisAragon then goes and pings (i.e. recruits) 6 other editors (@Doug Weller: @Meganesia: @Wikaviani: @Wario-Man: @HistoryofIran: @Khirurg) that I would suspect he believed would agree with his position (against Wiki polcy) and to give him an artificial consensus. [5] However, setting that aside, I decided to look up the reference that was being used for the claim in dispute. The article is utilizing Professor Mehrdad R. Izady’s work The Kurds: A Concise Handbook as the reference to say Kurds are “Iranian” in the very first sentence. So I looked at the work itself, and found that actually it was falsely being used, and that on pg. 37, “Kurds were and are Iranic” and pg. 198 (the pg # used in the 2 instance in the lead) “The Kurdish culture and language are indeed Iranic”. Thus, Izady actually states my desired wording! That “Iranic” is the correct term. So I notify everyone on the talk page that in fact the article is making a false claim utilizing that reference, and adjust the information to be accurate to Izady’s utilized reference. However, after doing that, one of LouisAragon’s formerly pinged people HistoryofIran, begins reverting me 1RR & 2RR, saying I need consensus and to use the talk page. Despite the fact I am the only one even using the talk page see -->here in relation to the Izady claim as they are making a false claim about a referenced work by a living person. Essentially, the article currently is claiming that Izady’s work makes a claim that it DOES NOT in fact make. [6] As for the talk page note which I never even reverted, LouisAragon knows that this exact issue arises over and over as his desired wording is incorrect. So to stifle debate and keep people from repeatedly bringing it up, he feels it’s justified to have a note on the talk page essentially saying “don’t dispute this incorrect material, it's settled”. That is why I also believed it was given undue weight, and removed it. Ironically, the note LouisAragon wants to preserve states "... please familiarize yourself with the cited sources", which is exactly what I did, and why I am being reverted by his recruited users.  Redthoreau -- (talk) 15:30, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

I was pinged because I edit the page a lot. Redthoreau attacked User:HistoryofIran a few minutes ago saying that " This is actually worse than vandalism, as you are mischaracterizing the cited work of a living person (Izady)." Yes, RedThoreau has found a source, a good one, that says Iranic. But as you can see at Talk:Kurds#Izady reference I've shown that in Google Scholar and Google Books the term "Iranian" as applied at least specifically to "West Iranian" which is what the source is about, is used much more than "Iranic", up to 10:1. Redthoreau is treating one source as though it's a trump card. Doug Weller talk 16:12, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

I just noticed that Redthoreau evidently meant to ping several editors but did it in plain text. I'll ping them: @Wikaviani, Wario-Man, Meganesia, and Khirurg: as they've been mentioned above and should know that. Doug Weller talk 16:19, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

@Doug Weller:, yes, LouisAragon pinged you, and 5 others, none of whom disagreed with his position. Thus it’s fair to ask if he’s merely calling on people he knows or suspects will give him consensus, which is against Wiki policy. And it’s not that I ‘found a source’. I am merely using the source which the article is currently relying on! In the very first sentence of the article, Izady’s book is falsely cited for a claim he does not make. It is in fact the ONLY reference given! So I looked up the work used and found that it is incorrectly used. And I corrected the word to exactly MATCH what Izady says, and I gave the page numbers and citations in the references. This is how Wikipedia works. I am actually genuinely puzzled how this is complicated? As I stated on the talk page, if a book says the sky is blue, you can’t utilize and reference it to say the sky is green.  Redthoreau -- (talk) 16:38, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

@Redthoreau: what happened is that you found that the source says "Iranic". As for it now being the only reference, at one point in the last few days the second sentence had 3 references including Izady, now it basically says the same thing in the first paragraph and the 2nd, with the 3 sources being distributed between them. Your version got rid of the sourced statement "they are culturally and linguistically classified as belonging to the Iranian peoples." The fact is that you are arguing on the talk page that we should only use "Iranic" and editwarring to get your way by deleting sources that use "Iranian". The fact that Izady is among a minority that use "Iranic" isn't sufficient reason to deleted the term used by most reliable sources. But this discussion really doesn't belong here. Doug Weller talk 16:54, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

FYI, I have disagreed with all those "recruited" editors on numerous occassions.(e.g. [259]-[260]-[261]) The only reason I pinged them is because they are veteran editors with tons of experience on the West Asia topic area, and all of them have edited numerous Kurd-related articles. - LouisAragon (talk) 17:15, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

@Doug Weller: I disagree. There are 3 references used in the lead currently dealing with the “Iranian” issue, the same 3 as before. 2 of those 3 are the same i.e. Izady’s book, the reference I am trying to ensure is correct as used. The 3rd, is also incorrect, as it’s cited as 2014 Encyclopedia, but is in fact linked to a --> 1996 one, that doesn’t say Kurds are an Iranian ethnic group, but rather oddly that “Soviet Kurds” speak a dialect that belongs to the “Northwestern Subgroup of the Iranian Group of the Indo-European Family.” Again, every time I check a source from the article it is incorrectly used.  Redthoreau -- (talk) 17:45, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

@LouisAragon:, The issue isn’t whether you have disagreed with them in the past on other matters. The issue is on this specific topic, and whether you just pinged people you felt would agree with you. But actually you shouldn’t have pinged anyone, as it alters the organic process of consensus, if one party gets to invite editors of their choice to chime in on the matter and the other doesn’t. I am supposed to rely on those randomly reading the talk page, but you get to call in 6 people of your choice? How is that fair?  Redthoreau -- (talk) 17:50, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Doug Weller is an admin since a very long time and a CheckUser/Oversight as well. Why on earth would I ping an admin if I wanted to gather "support"?! Your words don't match up. No, I know very well what this is about. We all do. You were caught red-handed edit warring and trying to change long-standing content without WP:CONSENSUS i.e. being WP:TENDENTIOUS. The diffs are there for everyone to see. You only stopped reverting other editors when this case was opened. Its truly mind-boggling that an editor (supposedly around since 2007) is completely oblivious of the fact that he's been disruptive, and still doesn't want to acknowledge any wrongdoing. Its disturbing to say the least. - LouisAragon (talk) 18:04, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Note to the closing admin: You might be interested in this WP:BATTLEGROUND-loaded edit summary.[262] - LouisAragon (talk) 18:11, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

@LouisAragon:, why are you pinging anyone? That isn't how a talkpage is supposed to work when 2 people have a disagreement. One doesn't get to invite a bunch of people they know or are familiar with. And the real 'battleground' is you opening up a report for 3RR when I didn’t in fact commit 3RR, and then leaving a comment on my own talk page warning me about it, in a dispute where you are in violation of Wiki policy not me. You are trying to game the system to your benefit, meanwhile I am the only one looking up all the incorrectly used sources you’re relying on, pointing it out on the article's talk page, and actually attempting to write the lead correctly.  Redthoreau -- (talk) 18:24, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

I don't understand your point Redthoreau, really. Why are you focusing on the fact that LouisAragon pinged some users ? This is a community encyclopedia, we are supposed to work together, this is why he pinged us. Also, as far as i can see, there is no Wiki rule against that. If you're referring to WP:CAN, this is perfectly irrelevant here. Doug Weller is a veteran admin, are you seriously charging him with bias ?! Come on ! And, as LouisAragon said above, we are far from being a team here and have disagreed on numerous occasions. You seem to try to divert this thread from the main point, i.e. your edit warring behaviour and refusal to achieve WP:CONSENSUS on the talk page. Doug's point about the number of hits on Google scholar is perfectly valid, since there are at least ten times more "Iranian" than "Iranic" and we use common names on this encyclopedia. Best regards.---Wikaviani ^{(talk) (contribs)} 19:13, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

@Wikaviani:, My main point is very simple, that we should follow the wording of the utilized reference. I'm being reverted for doing that. To your other points, of course we work together, but if two people are having a disagreement and thus in a deadlock, and one of the users then invites 6 users they are familiar with, that potentially slants the consensus in their favor. Consensus is supposed to be related to those who are reading the talk page at the time on their own volition, not a matter of each side bringing in their own potential group of supporters. Any “consensus” that takes place after one side invites in people, isn’t real consensus for all intents and purposes. You are one of those he pinged, as are all those who have agreed with him on this report. Of note, not a single unpinged person has reverted me or replied in disagreement to me on the article talk page, only those LouisAragon invited. And no the bias isn’t related to Doug Weller, he was pinged and responded, so did nothing wrong. What I am saying is its wrong for LouisAragon to have pinged a bunch of people into the debate. As for Google Scholar, that isn’t the way to judge the claim. Of course the term “Iranian” is more common than “Iranic”, in the same way “German” is more common than “Germanic”, but that doesn’t mean Danes are German, despite the fact that they are Germanic. Likewise, the disputed claim is whether that Kurds are Iranian or Iranic, so that is what should be searched, not merely which word appears most in any context.  Redthoreau -- (talk) 20:02, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

@Redthoreau:, You seem to be conviced that if we reverted your version, it's only because we support LouisAragon, but personally, it's not the case. I reverted to "Iranian" because we have to use WP:COMMON names here, and as you agreed above, "Iranian" actually is the common name. This has nothing to do with the modern country of Iran, this is only used in an ethno-linguistic sense, nothing more, nothing less (just like Pashtuns, Tajiks, etc ... who are not Iranian citizens but ethnic Iranians). Anyway, this discussion does not belong to this place, but to the article's talk page. Also, while you used the talk page, you kept edit-warring on the main space without having achieved any consensus and, worse, against numerous editors. You're a veteran user, right ? you certainly know that things don't work like that here, don't you ? ---Wikaviani ^{(talk) (contribs)} 20:25, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

@Wikaviani:, If you are concerned with common terminology, then you should know that Iranian and Iranic are two different things in the common parlance. The former is commonly seen as a citizen of the nation of Iran, while the latter is used for ethno-linguistic issues. Just like other instances (Turkish/Turkic etc). And it is only “edit-warring” because LouisAragon went and pinged a bunch of people that he has worked with before on similar articles. There is a edit history of him working with several of the editors he pinged on articles and of him even messaging them and telling them they have private emails from him in the past etc (so off site communication as well). Around 2 weeks ago, I even noticed on an article I’ve edited that LouisAragon again --> pinged 3 of the same users as this occasion “for their opinions” in a dispute on the Iraqi Kurdistan page. That proverbial stacking of the deck is not how Wiki is supposed to operate. Because it would be very easy for someone to form a ‘team’ of 4-5 like-minded users and use coordination to basically go article by article and create the appearance of consensus, and revert others, and then report for 3RR if they revert back.  Redthoreau -- (talk) 21:04, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

It appears Redthoreau is only interested in masking his disruption by casting ungrounded aspersions. He's trying to blame the fact that everyone disagrees with him on them being supposedly "canvassed". Also, why did he attack another user, as demonstrated by Doug Weller?[263]-[264] He also never responded to that, even though Doug Weller mentioned it on two occassions. Even though Wikaviani and a certain "Qahramani44" were the first ones to revert Redthoreau,[265][266] Redthoreau's still accusing me of "canvassing" (?!) other veteran editors into this, when I just asked for opinions. There's no Wikipedia policy that states that other users can't be invited to comment through a neutral message. His assertion that I only pinged those that were my "buddies" is disproven, as I have demonstrated that I have had numerous arguments/clashes with the same users as well. My message on the talk page was as neutral as it could be. Heck, I even invited Doug Weller to comment, a seasoned admin. I don't think I've even ever interacted with Meganesia before pinging him on the Talk:Kurds and Talk:Iraqi Kurdistan page. This is pure banter. I believe its time for admins to step in and close this case. I'm done here. - LouisAragon (talk) 23:37, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Redthoreau, if what you said above was true about asking other users' opinion, then WP:RFC or WP:THIRD would be useless. Asking for other editors' opinion is clearly not gaming the system or trying to achieve a fake consensus. at some point, you just need to trust other people's opinion, i don't say everything is perfect with this, but whether you like it or not, this is how this stuff works.---Wikaviani ^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:06, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

• Result: User:Redthoreau is warned for edit warring. They may be blocked if they revert again at Kurds unless they have obtained a prior consensus in their favor on the talk page. The steps of WP:Dispute resolution are open to you. EdJohnston (talk) 04:16, 7 February 2019 (UTC)
