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

• See this guide for instructions on creating diffs for this report.
• If you see that a user may be about to violate the three-revert rule, consider warning them by placing {{subst:uw-3rr}} on their user talk page.

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.

Comments:

This article is sanctioned under the Syrian Civil War topic, allowing one revert per 24 hours.

• This user has a very long edit-warring record. In addition, the user resorts to personal attacks when their argument fails such as here, here, here, here, here and here, and here. Another personal attack on another user here.
• This user removes mass amounts of sourced, relevant content because it simply goes against their POV (WP:IDONTLIKEIT). Examples are:
• Here, which is part of the complaint above
• Other pages: Here, here,
• Konli is edit-warring here, 4 reverts in less than 48 hours.
• This user uses fake edit-summaries to sneak in their significant changes to the meanings by simple tweaking such as this one and removal of sensitive words that fake/change/reverse the meaning (such as 'at most', 'no more than') or changing 'encourage' to 'allow', 'many' to 'some', etc.
• This user has tried to block every effort at reaching consensus on the page in question. Look at this message here to another (more reasonable, neutral) user on their side.
• This user was blocked back in June for edit-warring. It is about time for this user to see a topic ban or a indefinite block given their constant disruptive behavior and sabotage of many articles. Thanks Amr ibn Kulthoumعمرو بن كلثوم (talk) 22:10, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

That page was quiet for months until Konli17 returned from his long break and decided to push their POV. He changes Southern and eastern Turkey into Turkish Kurdistan, tries renaming every city in Northeastern Syria to its Kurdish name, constantly starts edit wars with other users, and manipulates sources to get them what they want him to say. Here's a recent example on the Hulusi Akar page of how he fakes content from sources: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12. This user is clearly WP:NOTHERE and is just here to push his agenda and should be blocked. Thepharoah17 (talk) 23:08, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Even a pro-Kurdish editor doesn't agree with his edits: 13 Thepharoah17 (talk) 02:10, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

One more example where Konli faked the content of al-Jazeera story that they used. Konli claimed: "in order to prevent the SDF linking Afrin Canton with the rest of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria". However, neither the page name (Shahba Canton) nor the other names (Afrin, Autonomous Administration) claimed were mentioned in that story. Amr ibn Kulthoumعمرو بن كلثوم (talk) 02:59, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

There are other users who have witnessed the edit-warring behavior of this user. Is it appropriate to ping them or that would be considered canvassing? Thanks, Amr ibn Kulthoumعمرو بن كلثوم (talk) 04:14, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

@EdJohnston: Could you please look into this case here? The page you protected has seen major vandalism by this user since it was partially-protected. Thanks, Amr ibn Kulthoumعمرو بن كلثوم (talk) 06:38, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

A decision for this case is over due and the user in question is taking advantage of this by continuing their edit-warring. See what they call "clean-up! They have deleted half an article that is well-sourced (neutral, Western sources) and very relevant to the area in question. All this happened while an RfC is open and against advice on the Talk page by user @Sixula:. If all the edit-warring is not enough for an indef banning then the many personal attacks identified above should be the straw to do it. Thanks, Amr ibn Kulthoumعمرو بن كلثوم (talk) 00:17, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi, the conflict between Konli and the other three could really use an admin looking into it. The complaining editors SD, Amr Ibn and ThePharoah17 have all shown a very surprising tolerance to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) which appears not to be on the radar of the Admins. SD and Amr Ibn, both wanted to move Syrian Kurdistan to Kurdish occupied regions of Syria in the midst of an Siege of Kobane by ISIL in 2015. The pinged admin EdJohnston closed the discussion at the time. ThePharoah17 has shown similar views after I have made that public just a few days ago arguing that the YPG is just a terrorist organization as ISIL. The YPG is only designated a terrorist organization by Turkey, and supported by a global coalition of 83 countries including the USA and most of the countries of the European Countries, which is formed specifically to fight ISIS. ISIL is probably the most designated terrorist organization in the world. That they now want to oust Konli17, who really improved many articles is not very Misplaced Pages. Amr Ibn and SD are also involved in a long edit war about the existence of Syrian Kurdistan, in which they deny its existence and dismiss any academic sources which mention a Syrian Kurdistan. The dispute is currently raging at the ANI and also at an RfC at the Syrian Kurdistan Talk page.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 09:03, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Paradise Chronicle, you are accusing me of being "tolerant" to ISIS is extremely offensive. You can not show one single comment I have made that comes even close to what you are claiming. No one on the planet hates them more then me. You should be banned from wikipedia for your words. Also, what academic sources have I dismissed? --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 10:31, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

@Admins, this is a very serious accusation and personal attack by user Paradise chronicle. Standing against YPG militias does not mean one is supporting ISIL. It's not black and white. See this Human Rights Watch story about PYD/YPG human rights violations. Your argument just shows that you are here to push a pro-PKK/PYD POV agenda.

Discussion on abortion rights in Poland, after an attempted constitutional change by the Polish government. User has been previously c-banned from "Christianity and European secular politics, broadly construed." Repeated PAs and refusal to self-revert. François Robere (talk) 11:57, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

@E-960: The "sports" diff was an oversight. I filed using Twinkle, and it automatically lists all edits from the last 25 or so hours. Regarding your diffs - only two of them are mine and they're spaced 20 hours apart (with discussion in between), so why you keep attacking me as "disruptive" is unclear. Note the second of the two collapses edits by four other editors, which could give a false impression about my edits. François Robere (talk) 13:21, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

• Comment by E-960

This is a down right manipulation of reality. I think user François Robere thinks that if he files an admin complaint report first it will divert the attention from the fact that it's him and user HQGG who repeatably violated the Misplaced Pages:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle, and despite an ongoing discussion on the article's talk page, have re-inserted the disputed text, here: , , , , , and . Also, I would like to point out that other users have reverted those edits not just me, including Oliszydlowski and Snowded, also during the ongoing talk page discussion GizzyCatBella and NeonFor criticized François Robere and HQGG for their Misplaced Pages:Tendentious editing, yet François Robere did not refrain form his disruptive editing, and now cries wolf, when I reverted the text back to the original long-standing version. --E-960 (talk) 12:47, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Also, why is user François Robere, listing a completely unrelated edit (10:08, 16 November 2020 (UTC) "/* Sports */ trim") about Formula 1 and Robert Kubica, as proof of a content dispute against me in the Law section of the Poland article? Another point regarding the ban, it's scope relates to religion and secularism (separation of religion from civic affairs and the state, anti-clericalism, atheism, religious symbols, etc.), not law or general politics. This is just silly. This complaint should be dropped, as it's only purpose was to entrap someone and divert attention from François Robere own disruptive behavior. --E-960 (talk) 12:54, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

I put a 3RR warning on HQCG's talk page over this. Its fairly clear that this account and François Robere are edit warring, and agressively so. I'd suggest that the behaviour of François Robere is reviewed given the matter has been raised here. I should make it clear that I supported the community ban on E-960 and it not 100% clear to me if this topic comes under that. However this is about proccess and the editors concerned have not raised an RfC or similar. They may be right but edit warring is not the way to resolve this -----Snowded 17:57, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

• E-960 and HQGG are both edit warring. More concerning is the topic ban, which is broken outright (I participated in that discussion), and E-960's combatative behaviour here and from the looks of it on his talk page and article talk. E-960 is banned from Christianity and European secular politics, broadly construed, precisely due to this combatative behaviour, and examining the first diff in the sequence it discusses the legality of abortion in Poland which is within the remit of the ban, driving the point home is the first source cited titled Killing ‘Unborn Children’? The Catholic Church and Abortion Law in Poland Since 1989 from Social & Legal Studies which has Catholic Church in the title. Flaunting a community ban should have consequences.--Astral Leap (talk) 18:30, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
• The most worrisome here is the fact that the account just above has been registered in February and did not start being active until June, yet knows the system very well. WP:NOTBATTLEGROUND, and returning accouts of people who most likely are not allowed to be here should not be allowed to fan the flames. Flaunting this in the community's face should have consequences. SPI, anyone? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:34, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

It appears that User:E-960 and User:HQGG have both broken 3RR, based on reverts that began on 15 November and continued into 16 November. Can anyone see a better alternative than blocking those two editors for 3RR violation? For example, general agreement to wait for an RfC? EdJohnston (talk) 04:07, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

EdJohnston and Astral Leap, pls consider the Misplaced Pages:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle, I don't think it's correct when you label everyone involved as "edit warring" even those who revert the new text and ask for a discussion. Misplaced Pages rules are clear, if you add new text and it gets reverted, you move to the talk page, not keep re-adding the text. This is precisely why these disputes explode, because some folks justify the editor who adds the new content and then aggressively keeps re-adding it, by saying something to the effect that everyone is edit warring - I disagree, restoring the original text and asking the editor who added the new content to discuss is not disruptive behavior, and in the past the Poland article was flooded with questionable additions. --E-960 (talk) 07:24, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

• Also, Astral Leap, the point you raised only lends more support to my claim that François Robere is just trying to entrap someone with this admin complaint. See, the original edit on abortion did not make any reference to the Church, the only debate at that time was about the use of the word "restrictive" (as it implied value), the original text was more neutral in its wording, see here . This reference only appeared at the very last edit — the one added during the talk page discussion without consensus (and without being presented) and the same one where François Robere removed an entire paragraph on legal history in Poland, then immediately François Robere initiated this complain. Hmm... why would François Robere make such massive changes to the article and sneak a short reference to the Church then file a complaint for restoring the long-standing text. If the talk page discussion was in progress, editors should refrain form making disruptive edits to the text in question until consensus is reached, not make even more changes, and then cry foul. --E-960 (talk) 07:45, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

E-960, outlawing or restricting abortion in Poland is square in the middle of your topic ban. How can you not see this? Abortion legality is one of the central issues in secular or religious politics and is connected to the church. All of your edits there run contrary to the ban.--Astral Leap (talk) 08:29, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Per my understanding, as I was banned for a dispute on the Religion in the European Union on an issue related to the treatment Christians. I would highlight that the ban is related to topics of Christianity and secular politics (Secularism), which relates to (separation of religion from civic affairs and the state, anti-clericalism, atheism, religious symbols in government institutions, etc.). Issues, like abortion, LGBT or the death penalty are not necessarily connected, as there are many liberal Christian denominations, who support such issues (or ultra-conservatives in the case of the death penalty). So, it's difficult to argue that being for or against abortion means you are a Christian or you are not a Christian, these issues cut across various segments of the population. My initial issue was the use of the word "restrictive". I though it tilted the statement to one side, the original text just said what the law prescribes in Poland. As I mentioned before this is a high-level article so subsequently adding various points of view, would just expand the Law section and in the future create more disputes (and the issue can be described in detail in the topic specific articles like Abortion in Poland, which by the way, I'm not going to get involved in, as my focus for quite some time was the clean-up of the Poland article, everything form image selection, grammar, reference clean-up and trimming the text). --E-960 (talk) 09:32, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

All of the sources I added link this to the Church and its dominant position in Polish politics. François Robere (talk) 11:10, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Any non-governmental organization what ever it is, can voice its views or ideology and get involved in politicking — separation of church and state is more related to something like Iran and the Islamic Republic, etc. In any case, the original issue was the wording ("restrictive"), and then the disruptive editing, not who holds which position and why. --E-960 (talk) 16:00, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Also, I'd like to point out that François Robere engaged in these type of crude tactics against other editors before, example here: . Perhaps, some kind of a sanction should be imposed on François Robere, because this keeps reoccurring, He periodically keeps filing frivolous complaints against other editors, all the while engaging in disruptive editing himself. --E-960 (talk) 15:47, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Though I haven't closed this edit warring report, I've alerted both User:E-960 and User:François Robere to the discretionary sanctions under the abortion decision. I'm still hoping that any of the participants will offer a proposal for resolving the dispute. For instance, there was a suggestion by User:Snowded at Talk:Poland#Reset for an RfC. Anybody want to open one? EdJohnston (talk) 16:20, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for that. I've engaged and agreed to compromise on both TP threads (Talk:Poland#Abortion and Talk:Poland#Reset), and my edits reflect that. If you filter out the edit warring between E-960 and HQGG, and the former's aggressive comments, there doesn't seem to be much of a problem. François Robere (talk) 17:01, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

• I agree, no need in keeping this claim open, however I would like to raise one final point regarding François Robere behavior. I do hope that this is noticed by the Administrators, as it shows why some editors question his approach. In the past on the Poland talk page, François Robere advocated for the inclusion of a of a text which stated that Jesus Christ was the king of Poland, here: , the original title of the thread was provacitivley titled "Jesus Christ King of Poland?" (later changed to "Christianity in Poland") . The issue kicked off in a surprisingly similar manner, some anonymous IP and/or newly created user account started things off, then when the talk page discussion ensued, François Robere gets involved and makes his edits, here: , with the support of a newly created account (User:Volodya's song in that instance) who also makes similar edits, here: (going so far as to change the Poland infobox to include Christ as king of Poland). So, this is a similar patter as in this most recent discussion where user François Robere and user HQGG edited in tandem. --E-960 (talk) 08:33, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

I reported the user at ANI weeks ago, but there wasn't an action. I invited him to go to WP:DRN, in which the user didn't participate. I even started the RfC discussion, in which the user hasn't yet participated. The reverts have been done for weeks. Seems that the user aggressively favors labelling the living person, especially by using his way of language toward others (), including me. George Ho (talk) 20:56, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

GH has accused other people of not being likeable. He was told by an admin that one's own Insta is a reliable source. He's on a crusade to make this site into something he approves of. He is removing news without looking for secondary sources as seen in his Cold War edit. Howdoesitgo1 (talk) 21:02, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Untrue. You were using this source, which reproduces or uses as a source the post-2013 Newsweek. Then you use another source, which is using RT, which is deprecated per WP:RSP. I didn't notice that you were using different sources to cite the same info. --George Ho (talk) 21:26, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

I don't know how or why the user is interested in another article, but the user is still reinserting the post-2013 Newsweek (initially done by another user Tobby72) as a source, which is considered unreliable per WP:RSP. George Ho (talk) 21:08, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

From GH's own user page before he deleted it. This notes most of my wrongful deeds in the past. I'm doing my best to resist the temptations below right now. They are not rules but just self-notes. I might bend any of them only if it obstructs me from doing something beneficial to Misplaced Pages. However, bending it must be discreet.

Not go near pages about songs by Madonna until US cover arts are accepted. This oath shall not include verified free images, which shall possibly replace non-free images. It shall also not include songs sung by original artists. Not making any more protection requests on templates until ECP is allowed for protection on them. Close to opposition per Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Extended confirmed protection policy 2, temporarily no ECP on high-risk templates Toning down ideas until all else fails. Staying out of politics of images Toning down non-free image requests and/or additions and/or changes for now until... I become more open-minded than now on people's opinions. Mainly applicable to: Images of regional editions/releases and offensive material, especially if free material might exist and an article subject is well understood without NFC. Images of recently deceased subjects. Might request undeletion for no less than three or six months after that particular subject's death. Toning down requests on title changes until I learn how to handle the heat. For now, refraining from changing or requesting change on: The casing of "Like/like" in titles indefinitely. Titles containing common punctuations, like periods and commas. You may engage in RM discussions at discretion. This includes titles like "X, wife of Y" and "X (wife of Y)" Note to self: You can vote and comment, but that's it! Rebuttals must be discretional at all costs! If edit warring happens, request protection. If the method is either rejected or ineffective, you may request such a change at discretion! Toning down my ideals and then becoming more realistic Focus less on editors and more on major content disputes, though often content disputes come with user conducts. Be careful!! Feel free to add infoboxes if necessary. If someone else removes your addition of the infobox, please discuss. If not necessary, don't add it! However, generally stay away from RfC case-by-case debates about infoboxes unless you are compelled to say something about them. Be careful starting one; you may face backlash. Also, if a Good or Featured Article lacks an infobox, please discuss first. Same goes for well-detailed articles. Generally, avoid canvassing. Instead, take Stanton McCandlish's and HighInBC's advices. Notify anybody and/or community at the minimum and without excess. Do not start a RM discussion on an article that has maintenance issues! If urged to do mass requests for protection, use caution. Otherwise, don't do it. Instead, inspect history logs and do individual requests but mostly at discretion.

Article Chris Krebs — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yousef Raz (talk • contribs) 03:08, 18 November 2020 (UTC) Chris Krebs was the first and currently the only Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. This is well cite by multiple sources including the Washington Post. Users continue to change the article to reflect his previous position in a now defunct federal agency. I have made attempts to discuss this with the initial user that was altering the article. He has not responded to my discussion attempts. Another user has now changed it back to the incorrect information. How do I get it back to reflect correctly without violating the rules? Do I wait for a fourth user to change it back? This seems pretty simple and straight forward.05:53, 18 November 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yousef Raz (talk • contribs)

While this has extended beyond a 24 hour period, I think you will see that there is no attempt to find a solution to the issue by the user. In fact, they have not made a clear case for what it is that they object to in the content. They have only raised the claim that it conflicts with the article Hellenistic period, which it does not, and in any case that's WP:CIRCULAR. Furthermore, the rest of the content that is being reverted is not explained by this. As you can see, they have not responded to a discussion on the talk page. You will also see from the other talk page discussions that this user is in general not at all constructive, often appealing to their own expertise or other articles against content with academic sources, as well as engaging in extremely petty fights over interpretation of individuals words, etc. Keepcalmandchill (talk) 04:11, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Keepcalmandchill has previously had to withdraw two previous accusations against me of edit warring. This third one is similarly unfounded. As with Keepcalmandchill's edits on the subject of Hellenistic philosophy, this complaint is also based on factually incorrect information. It should be clear to any reader of Talk:Hellenistic_philosophy that extensive conversation is happening and that Keepcalmandchill's comments have been responded to. Keepcalmandchill is correct that I have pointed out that I have made over 1,000 edits on detail pages regarding Hellenistic philosophy and that Keepcalmandchill has made none. Keepcalmandchill is similarly correct that I have pointed out that their edits on Hellenistic philosophy contradict sourced claims made on other, more-detailed pages regarding Hellenistic philosophy, typically sourced from various specialized academic sources rather than the two introductions to philosophy that Keepcalmandchill repeatedly cites for all claims. Keepcalmandchill is also correct that I repeatedly point out that this area of philosophy (like all of the others) involves specialized terminology which needs to be used with precision. Keepcalmandchill is again correct that the 3 reversions in 24 hour rule has not actually been broken. But, as one can see, they have decided to post a complaint anyway. I suggest that this matter would be better addressed by availing of some form of third-party intervention.

I apologize that the volunteers who deal with edit warring issues have to spend time addressing this matter, as all parties are in agreement about the fact that the reversion rule has not been broken. It should be noted that shortly prior to Keepcalmandchill raised this complaint I had asked for help on this matter at the Help Desk as it had become clear to me that an impasse was looming. Teishin (talk) 04:56, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

I did not "have to withdraw" the previous complaints. I did so as a gesture of goodwill after you responded with some degree of positivity to constructive compromise proposals that I made in the relevant discussions. As both of those complaints involved an outright violation of 3RR, I think it is safe to say that this user has little respect for the rule. Keepcalmandchill (talk) 05:08, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

I do suggest reading their Help Desk comment, it is... interesting. Keepcalmandchill (talk) 05:12, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

This is an article that is sanctioned under the Syrian Civil War theme (1RR). The user reported here has a long history of edit-warring, and there is another case open against them in the noticeboard. This user has an extremist nationalistic POV agenda they are trying to push in many articles, as witnessed in the other complaint. Look at their revert history and edit warring behavior that warranted many warnings and complaints by several users on their Talk page and related articles Talk pages.

This user is extremely POV pushing, and doing long lasting edit wars with other users. He is thinking Turkey or Iran is occupying Kurdistan. He got ridiculous edits such as changing short description into "Iranian-controlled part of Kurdistan" or such as "the portion of Kurdistan under the jurisdiction of Turkey", as if Iran or Turkey is occupying a foreign country. As for Western Armenia, claiming an Armenian irredentist concept is "Turkish irredentism". This user has clearly no idea about distinguishing an geocultural region or a political region.

Beside that, insisting about a map made by a blocked user, which is clearly controversial. Also adding here a wrong reference, you can control yourself.
