    Welcome to the edit warring noticeboard Shortcuts Update this page

    This page is for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule.

    You must notify any user you have reported.

    You may use {{subst:An3-notice}} ~~~~ to do so.

    You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

    Additional notes
    • When reporting a user here, your own behavior will also be scrutinized. Be sure you understand WP:REVERT and the definitions below first.
    • The format and contents of a 3RR/1RR report are important, use the "Click here to create a new report" button below to have a report template with the necessary fields to work from.
    • Possible alternatives to filing here are dispute resolution, or a request for page protection.
    • Violations of other restrictions, like WP:1RR violations, may also be brought here. Your report should include two reverts that occurred within a 24-hour period, and a link to where the 1RR restriction was imposed.
    Definition of edit warring
    Edit warring is a behavior, typically exemplified by the use of repeated edits to "win" a content dispute. It is different from a bold, revert, discuss (BRD) cycle. Reverting vandalism and banned users is not edit warring; at the same time, content disputes, even egregious point of view edits and other good-faith changes do not constitute vandalism. Administrators often must make a judgment call to identify edit warring when cooling disputes. Administrators currently use several measures to determine if a user is edit warring.
    Definition of the three-revert rule (3RR)
    An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Violations of this rule normally attract blocks of at least 24 hours. Any appearance of gaming the system by reverting a fourth time just outside the 24-hour slot is likely to be treated as a 3RR violation. See here for exemptions.

    Sections older than 48 hours are archived by Lowercase sigmabot III.

    Twinkle's ARV can be used on the user's page to more easily report their behavior, including automatic handling of diffs.

    User:Derek.cashman reported by User:bkonrad (Result:warning both)

    Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Cities/Guideline (edit | ] | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Derek.cashman (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log): Time reported: 17:33, 17 February 2008 (UTC)


    • Diff of 3RR warning: DIFFTIME (Derek.cashman is not a new user)

    A short explanation of the incident. Derek.cashman finds general references to be unacceptable and has attempted to force this dictate into the WP:City Guidelines, despite there being no such explicit deprecation on WP:CITE. He has demonstrated no support for this change and others have expressed disagreement. In addition, he has accused me of being a sock puppet (on what basis I have no idea). While I object to Derek.cashman edits, I have no problem with the suggestion proposed by Maclean25 here and Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Cities/Guideline. older ≠ wiser 17:33, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

    Both sides are edit warring. Bkonrad has not technically violated 3RR, but has reverted four times in the past two days. Not willing to block only one, but have watchlisted the article and will block either one if he continues the edit war. Heimstern Läufer (talk) 20:36, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
    Fair enough. I'm not exactly proud of having the course this has taken. WP:BRD suggests that further discussion is needed before a controversial new dictate is added to the project guidelines that, at present, far overreaches the general guidance at WP:CITE. older ≠ wiser 20:46, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

    Hate to point this out to you, but I don't see that as a violation of 3RR, since the first edit and the third edit is just outside of a 24-hour period (see above). However, irregardless, I have decided not to continue edit-warring anyway, and instead have initiated a discussion regarding my position on "general references" here. I did make a minor modification to Bkonrad's wording today, to streamline the text a bit and make it a bit more readable, but I don't think that qualifies as a revert because it doesn't really change the spirit of what he wrote. Dr. Cash (talk) 15:15, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    It is indisputable that you (and I) were edit-warring over that page, which is what 3RR is about. Getting legalistic about technicalities is a poor excuse for continuing to revert without any clear support for your change. I think we both went over the line in this interaction, which is unfortunate because I can see that you are a good editor and valuable contributor to the Misplaced Pages. I don't agree with you about general references, but that is a matter for further discussion. I have commented at Misplaced Pages talk:Citing sources‎. BTW, the "wording" you revised is not mine -- in the initial instances I was restoring the text that had been there for quite a long time, and in the later instances the new text was by Maclean25. older ≠ wiser 15:52, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    User:AerospaceM reported by Fut.Perf. (Result: no violation, but 8 hour block for edit warring)

    n parallel on second article:

    Warning given:

    Repeated removal of contested map previously added by User:Polibiush . Sterile reverting, no participation in discussion on talk (unlike his main opponent, User:Polibiush, who discusses constructively and stopped reverting after warning.) Identity of IP and named account seems obvious from behaviour and style. Fut.Perf. ☼ 08:52, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    • Not all of the edits are within a 24-hour period nor are they by the same user, but it's enough to justify an 8-hour block for general edit warring. Stifle (talk) 11:03, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
      • Just for the record, yes, the first four items in the first set are within 24h, if you follow the reasonable assumption that these are in fact the same user, as I argued. Fut.Perf. ☼ 11:05, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    User:Akhamenehpour reported by User:Zedla (Result: 24h)

    Not a strict 24h/3rr but long term constant reinsertion of unsourced pov statement and reverting all removals or fact tags with inappropriate 'removing vandalism' edit summary. Zedla (talk) 10:11, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    User warned. I didn't see any previous attempt at engaging this new user in talk or warn him, so I think an immediate block would not be warranted at this point. However, I'd be for blocking immediately if he resumes. Fut.Perf. ☼ 10:33, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
    Strike that. Blocking 24h. My bad for not checking his talk page history. He was indeed warned, removed the warning, and went on edit-warring. Fut.Perf. ☼ 11:01, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    RESUBMIT wasn't blocked properly before and continues to edit war despite all warnings, call for discussion. Has threatened to puppet disrupt these articles. Zedla (talk) 08:17, 21 February 2008 (UTC) Zedla (talk) 11:13, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

    4 identical reverts against consensus of other editors. Also incivility against me and other users in this edit commentary.Ultramarine (talk) 15:11, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    Blocked 72 hrs for 3RR and incivility (which declined even further after this report was listed.) CIreland (talk) 16:29, 18 February 2008 (UTC)


    User:Bramlet Abercrombie reported by 65.96.171.231 (Result: 48 hours; reporter blocked 12 hours)

    Rogers Cadenhead (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Bramlet Abercrombie (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log): Time reported: 19:01, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    • Previous version reverted to:


    Established user, clearly well aware of 3RR given three previous revert blocks (see block log). Was clearly advised twice in edit summaries that the material re-added in the revert was removed on BLP grounds. While Bramlet disputed BLP applicability in his 4th revert edit summary (wrongly in my view), that doesn't justify a 3RR violation, particularly when all I requested was a reliable source. (btw, I'm not a sock. am a former named editor, inactive for almost a year, scrambled password, and prefer to ip my few one-off edits now.). 65.96.171.231 (talk) 19:01, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    Clear troll who himself violated 3RR. Single-purpose account trying to remove "co-founder" references, and then making up nonsensical BLP claim to remove entire paragraph where the "co-founder" occurs. Bramlet Abercrombie (talk) 19:15, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Bramlet Abercrombie has three previous blocks for edit warring, 48 hour block. The IP reporting has violated 3RR as well, but with no block history gets 12 hours. Stifle (talk) 19:28, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    The recent anon Stifle blocked may already have an account and has been deleting cited text for months.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/Special:Contributions/Trulexicon troll/sockpuppet account

    http://en.wikipedia.org/Special:Contributions/65.96.171.231 suspected IP sock

    Take a look at the similarities of both the anon and logged in account.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:Bramlet_Abercrombie#Three-revert_rule

    By the way, the three revert rules does not apply to reverting a troll/sockpuppet account IMHO.

    Regards, QuackGuru (talk) 01:38, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

    Ironically enough, I didn't realize I had also crossed 3, so my block was also in order. However, Quack I am neither sock nor troll. Nor have I even been editing "for months" (try 2 days) as you obviously know perfectly well by having look at my contribs. I gave well-reasoned edits and edit summaries grounded in policy with citations to the same. Bramlet simply repeatedly punched rollback without comment or discussion. I'd ask you to assume good faith Quack; it's hardly shocking that two people disagree with you and Bramlet -- indeed many other editors including slimvirgin and jimmy wales himself are on record disagreeing with you -- or perhaps jimbo is also a troll sock of truelexicon? by your logic, you and bramlet must also be sock-buddies since you two share the same opinion and edits? Regards, 65.96.171.231 (talk) 16:47, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

    User:Zzalzzal reported by User:Bobblehead (Result: 24 hours)

    Hillary Rodham Clinton (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Zzalzzal (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log): Time reported: 19:30, 18 February 2008 (UTC)


    The user has been attempting to add the percentage of the Iowa Caucuses to Hillary Rodham Clinton down to two decimal points since January 19. Previously he's done hit and runs, but today he seems intent upon having his version included and has done 4 reversions back to his preferred version in less than an hour. Bobblehead 19:30, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    Decision: Although the warning indicated above was issued only two minutes before the final revert, and may not have been seen by the user until after that revert, the user was also warned at 19:03. Blocked for 24 hours. TigerShark (talk) 21:26, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    User:Walter Mellon Head reported by User:Parent5446 (Result: Blocked indefinitely via separate process)

    Resolved

    Aang (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Walter Mellon Head (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log): Time reported: 21:35, 18 February 2008 (UTC)


    The user is continuously adding speculative unsourced information to the article even after his edits have been reverted. In addition, he continued to edit even though there were hidden comments warning editors to discuss changes on the talk page due to the controversial status of his edits. Parent5446 21:35, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

    In addition, he is tried to escape WP:3RR by waiting until the end of the day (February 18). But his edits are still within the same 24-hour period. He has been warned twice. Parent5446 01:24, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

    User:Chriscohen reported by User:Jheald (Result: 24 hours)

    Y-chromosomal Aaron (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views). Chriscohen (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log): Time reported: 09:59, 19 February 2008 (UTC)



    The user insists on putting the same misconceived material into the article Y-chromosomal Aaron, against the protests of several editors, and eventually 3RR warnings.

    I know we have to be gentle with him, because he's a new to Misplaced Pages, and also because English may not be his first language, but this can't go on.

    In scientific terms, what he's trying to add is as wrong as saying 2+2 = 6. I have tried to explain why it's wrong in talk, and he puts it back. User:Iris-J2 tried to explain why it was wrong, and he put it back. User:AdrianTM tried to take it out for the sourcing not being sufficient, but he put it back. User:Jfdwolff asked him to take it to talk and stop edit warring, , but back it comes. User:Shoessss tried to get in a mediator, and left an edit summary specifically warning about 3RR, but now Chris has reverted that too.

    In his latest response on the talk page, he seems to finally accept ( - see "(2)") that the CMH is not a Unique Event Polymorphism - one of the fundamental scientific points. And yet the material he puts back in uses the phrase "Cohen Unique-Event Polymorphism" no fewer than seven times.

    I don't want to see the page locked down and protected - there are other areas there that needs to be corrected, with cites to more up to date material. And, per User:Shoessss's latest edit summary, I guess it shouldn't be me that tries to put the page back to rights any more myself, because I really don't want to be seen as edit warring.

    But this misconceived material shouldn't be allowed to stand on Misplaced Pages, just because one editor insists on reinserting it. Jheald (talk) 09:59, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

    • Diff of 3RR warning: DIFFTIME – This editor has a block log as long as your arm – more than a dozen 3rr violations, the last one just a week ago. I’m surprised that he is still editong,and don;t belive a “warning” is need here.

    User edit wars to add information which the consensus judged to be undue weight. Canadian Monkey (talk) 16:56, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

    Given that:
    • The page in question is now protected for a couple of days.
    • Talk page discussions have been ongoing throughout.
    • Whilst there was a violation of the 3RR, there were only 5 minutes in it.
    I would be inclined to see a block as unnecessary and essentially punitive. I will, however, leave this report open for any other comments. CIreland (talk) 21:17, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
    The editor committed 3RR despite multiple requests from different editors to discuss on the talk page; given his 14-or-so previous offences, I've decided to hand him a 1 week block. Hopefully the point gets sent across... Master of Puppets Call me MoP!☺ 01:52, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

    Basically Rschen7754 thinks he can do what he wants because he's an admin (see Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard#Is it valid to semiprotect an IP talk page to keep the IP from removing warnings?). He wrote up a little essay that's factually inaccurate. NE2 02:36, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

    A 3RR on a user's sandbox page? Mmmm... Not applicable, NE2. If and when he moves it to the Misplaced Pages namespace, then yes. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 02:42, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

    This anonymous user keeps on deleting referenced information (see discussion page: lyrics from songs are provided which show explicit sexism; links to newsmedia with complaints to women´s right councils; internal links to wikipedia musical definitions are also provided to define the lacks of this music. Seeing his historial, I realize he´s a reggaeton fan which cannot admit the less criticism to his loved music. --Xareu bs (talk) 08:07, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

    I'll get straight to the point. Xareau_bs was vandalizing that wiki on a daily basis with critical POV statements. He refuses to include a single reference. I reported him for 3RR last week, and an admin protected the page to prevent further vandalism by him. Take 10 seconds to look at the talk page and the wiki history, his additions are noticeably POV, and he has yet to actually reference anything. He isn't even trying to source anything. I also think he just inadvertantly butchered the 3RR noticeboard coding. 74.228.158.68 (talk) 08:15, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
    The three-revert rule prohibits more than three reverts in a 24-hour period. You have provided only three. No violation made out. Stifle (talk) 09:28, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
    This is ridiculous! Don't start a revert war on this page. Wait for an admin to follow-up. - oahiyeel 10:30, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

    There were also two reverts extending back to 18 February.

    User continues to add in spam links regarding Oink's Pink Palace. Claims that he is an "ex-Moderator of OiNK Member of OiNKv2" and states that " have seen the new site at the new url with the old data so I can confirm it is real." But the primary web-site states otherwise. It's been previously reported to WP:ANI, seen here. Seicer (talk) (contribs) 14:11, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

    After being warned of the 3RR the user responded by posting a vandalism template to my talk page, in addition to calling me a liar in violation of WP:NPA. Then the user decided to simply ignore the warning and revert the article for the 4th time in 3 hours. This user has no other history of editing and appears to be primarily interested in trying to start an edit war over a topic that has been covered in the article already. I have reason to believe the user is also using sockpuppets for this purpose, as this edit was made by an IP user just before this user started making the same edit, please consider blocking 64.234.75.220 and 209.221.240.193 simultaneous to this user. In fact, semi-protection might be in order for this article until this user gets bored and moves on. ViperNerd (talk) 16:46, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

    Note: These are all the Amon Amarth edits, I'm not sure if I got all of them, though. I can also provide the diffs for Dissection, but that would just take me even longer. The later edits are more interesting, if you care.


    User has been warring on both of those pages long before I took up the issue with him. The user has been warned repeatedly by a handful of users and has made it clear that they don't care. Though, for the past few months, it has been mostly me reverting the user, if you look through both pages' histories you will see that many other users have reverted Twsx as well. I'm sure some of my past indisgressions may be brought up (I have been blocked for edit warring myself a couple times, though I still believe I was in the right on my latest one), but I assure you that I've changed and I do mean to help wikipedia and this kind of nonsense only makes us all go crazy and not focus on good editing. I also admit that when this edit warring started between me and Twsx it was mostly a comma break vs line break issue, but as I said, I only want the edit warring to stop now. I'm asking for a block to teach the user a lesson and stop edit warring. Blizzard Beast 23:58, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

    Interesting that i have never thought of this before. Please note that I could make the very same list with this editors revisions (which usually take place within, say, 12 hours after my edit). More argumentation and referencing concerning the issue can be found at User:Twsx/CVL, (so yes, I had to deal with this before, kinda :-)). As far as my humble judgement goes (partially based on the history of this editors behavoir, as seen on the page linked above) I have to assume that he is placing this report in bad faith. ~ | twsx | cont | ~ 00:26, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
