    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.

    User:Bkonrad reported by User:Élisée P. Bruneau (Result: Filer blocked as a sock)

    He has reverted a post 8 times in 24 hours. His reversions has been reverted by three users. Webpage: MGM (disambiguation). Still he is not stopping.--Élisée P. Bruneau (talk) 13:52, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    The edits do not comply with requirements for disambiguation. First, both links redirect to the same target. Second, there is no indication at the target that either are known by these initials. I don't care one way or the other about the subject matter, but unless there is some indication in the linked target that these are known by the initials, there is nothing to disambiguate. older ≠ wiser 14:00, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Just if anyone don't get it. older ≠ wiser IS User:Bkonrad.--Élisée P. Bruneau (talk) 14:07, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Exactly! He should get blocked! Here some sources who used MGM for male genital mutilation: The Atlantic, Disabled World, NCBI. So it's both used in PUBLIC MASS MEDIA and in ACADEMIC JOURNALS. Still, he is deleting it again and again.--Jack Jealine (talk) 14:06, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    — Jack Jealine (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

    Please add such references to the appropriate target of the links. Without any such indications in the target of the links, there is no basis for including on the disambiguation page.
    Also, is anyone missing a sock? older ≠ wiser 14:35, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Reverting vandalism ... is not edit warring;; persistently adding links which are not permitted by WP:MOSDAB is vandalism. PamD 15:49, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    You need to read about WP:Vandalism. Using the wrong terms doesn't make you seem clever. Sigh.--Élisée P. Bruneau (talk) 16:51, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment from uninvolved editor: Isn't it discouraged to use a sig that doesn't suggest your username in any way? Example: older ≠ wiser looks nothing at all like User:Bkonrad. Would such a complaint go to WP:UAA, or somewhere else? I'd appreciate either a talkback or a note on my talk page if you wouldn't mind. J♯m (talk | contribs) 02:47, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Bkonrad reported by User:Momo Monitor (Result: Filer blocked as a sock)

    9 reversions in 24 hours. Edit-warring against three users. --Momo Monitor (talk) 14:00, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Reverting vandalism ... is not edit warring;; persistently adding links which are not permitted by WP:MOSDAB is vandalism. PamD 15:50, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Read about vandalism before you risk a big lip;. Linking to academic journals isn't vandalism. WP:Vandalism.--Élisée P. Bruneau (talk) 16:50, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Note: This report is malformed. If you want it to be acted on please use the proper formatting. Next physical threats fall under WP:NPA EPB. You would do well to retract and apologize for it. Otherwise you risk a block. MarnetteD|Talk 17:17, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Linking to academic journals isn't vandalism - irrelevant comment. The vandalism consists of repeatedly adding links to MGM (disambiguation) which are not allowed under WP:MOSDAB. PamD 18:17, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    PamD, WP:NOTVANDALISM and PSGV (fancy acronyms). Even though it isn't vandalism, I strongly suggest to Elisee to stop these types of edit. They are certainly disruptive, especially the random warnings to uninvolved user's talk pages. Dat GuyTalkContribs 18:20, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    This guy (Momo Monitor/Élisée P. Bruneau/etc.) seems to be going for the "block me" record. False reporting of warring while guilty of vandalism and warring, false reporting of puppetry while engaged in puppetry, and threats of physical violence! ("Here it goes, I sped, I followed too closely, I ran a stop sign, I almost hit a Chevy, I sped some more, I failed to yield at a crosswalk, I sped some more, I changed lanes in the intersection, I changed lanes without signaling while running a red light, and speeding!!!") Go big or go home, I guess... —swpbT 18:40, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    User:64.71.171.68 reported by User:Adam the silly (Result: Range block)

    Stated user keeps on editing infobox image on Logan's Roadhouse to the wrong one.Adam the silly (talk) 18:37, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Adam the silly aside from this report not being formatted properly the person is rotating their IP. The way to deal with this is to file a report at WP:RFPP. I have taken care of this so, hopefully, the page will be protected soon. MarnetteD|Talk 19:17, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    edit summary very attacklike in nature WNYY98 (talk) 20:02, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    This user's edits have been relatively problematic lately – it seems to be a combination of language issues (i.e. ESL?) and a quasi-WP:BATTLEGROUND approach to editing. I'm not convinced that a block is the right way to go at this time, but if they don't knock off their recent approach to editing, blocking may be the only option, unfortunately. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 20:04, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Combative is right. Even when a date range issue is explained to them, they revert with a dismissive edit summary. clpo13(talk) 20:10, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    And now blocked by Finlay McWalter for WP:Vandalism (though edit warring would have been just as accurate). If Speedy135 doesn't alter their approach to editing, this is unlikely to be the only block they get. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 22:23, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Comments:

    I got here because I saw what looked like a bad-faith removal of content on the part of User:Ronz User:Richterer11111. I restored it without knowing the context, which was a mistake on my part. Sorry about that. It seems that there is an ongoing edit war about whether or not to blank a large part of the content and also some sources, I believe. J♯m (talk | contribs) 02:42, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    I had been using Huggle at the time, which is why I failed to notice any context. User:Ronz messaged me and asked me to undo my own edit, which I did, so I hope that that absolves me of any wrongdoing here. However, Hullaballoo Wolfowitz, presumably having seen the edit war, immediately undid my self-revert. J♯m (talk | contribs) 02:54, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Your general lack of care doesn't "absolve [you] of any wrongdoing here", because you're just making things harder for editors trying to clean up this mess. Two reverts in one day hardly amounts to edit warring -- especially when dealing with a vandalous editor who's been engaging in bad faith blanking, using multiple accounts, for at least two weeks.

    I actually started a discussion at the involved editor's user talk page [36] and noticed the third revert of me while preparing it. Considering there are BLP concerns, I was not sure the article talk page would be appropriate.

    Comments:
    OPTIONAL: It is also probably worth noting that the editor involved blanked the user page of User:Doug Weller here after Doug's first reversion of the material. That was actually what drew my attention to this matter in the first place. John Carter (talk) 15:27, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Srinjoy Mukherjee may be an autobiography. I removed unsourced material from that page which he restored. I then noticed the official Facebook page of the subject of the article is https://www.facebook.com/sarodsrinjoy, the editor's name reversed. Literally every edit except a couple of talk page edits requesting help have been promotional. See also Template:Daily Observer which isn't actually a template but a link to a newspaper article about the subject. Doug Weller talk 16:19, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    This person has continued to delete CSD's when it violates guidelines for the page being recreated multiple times, even landed him a block. He has also continued to delete templates instead of contesting, and he started the article. I'm not going to participate in a war against him. (4im also issued for the fact of a potential edit war) *Xyaena~* (talk) 16:40, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Additional Note He started the article, so deleting CSD templates is against the rules on his own created articles. *Xyaena~* (talk) 17:02, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    IP User is currently edit warring at Will Young, Deer Tick (band) etc. Also posting warnings on my talk page. Umair Aj (talk) 19:34, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Nonsense. Editor known (from their talk page) for edit warring and abusing multiple user accounts is engaging in further edit wars with no explanation. No justification or reason given for reverting my edits, and posting false vandalism warnings on my talk page. I would suggest that Umair Aj is investigated for making non-constructive edits, edit warring and using multiple accounts to evade 3RR. You may note that after he engaged in edit warring, he then stalked my other edits reverting them with no reason - then claims it's ME edit warring. No other editors have any issue with the edits I made, and their attempt to get me banned for vandalism was dismissed.

    Comment from uninvolved editor: I agree with you. The other party is edit warring. However, you are as well. I would advise both of you to knock it off before you both get blocked. J♯m (talk | contribs) 20:08, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Further, the edit war appears to be over things like whether Will Young is from Wokingham, Berkshire, England, or from Wokingham, England, United Kingdom. Is he styled William Robert "Will" Young or William "Will" Robert Young? Should he be in Category:English male film actors or Category:British male film actors? Only the Truth can decide!!

    Honestly, you guys, this is the definition of LAME. J♯m (talk | contribs) 20:11, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Update: The war over Deer Tick (band) appears to concern whether Robert Crowell is a current or former member of the band. I suppose there's truth somewhere, but I'd probably have to dip into celebrity gossip rags to find it, and frankly, I'd rather go dip myself in bees. J♯m (talk | contribs) 20:14, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    The last comment on either talk page dates from 2016. J♯m (talk | contribs) 20:23, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Oh, I know it's lame - but what kind of editor just mindlessly reverts edits all day without giving a legit reason - then stalks someones edits for no reason? My Edit/s are constructive - Most people wouldn't know where Wokingham is, so the county should be included as well as the country. Putting United Kingdom at the end is considered superfluous - see majority of article etc. It is standard for people from the UK to be described as English, Scottish etc instead of British - I might add I was merely reverting a previous explained change for the most part. The Deer Tick edit is based on a referenced statement on the article. Come on - this guy is just reverting for no reason and has no knowledge or interest of any of the subjects.

    You might want to look up the exceptions to the three revert rule. This doesn't qualify. So stop. Go to the talk page which has lain fallow since 2016 and till some new ground there. Put this page on your watchlist. Look for a third opinion. Anyway, there's many ways to resolve a dispute that don't involve edit warring. Yeah, that may not get it resolved today, but I promise that if you follow those steps you can get it done before deadline. Also, please remember to sign your posts with four tildes (~~~~).

    1st revert was here. He has also been reverting others including multiple times with this item. It is under discussion at the talk page and he was actually informed before going over 3RR on his talk page not to do it. That was ignored today. We'd like his input on the conversation on Nadals talk page, but not under the barrage of continued blanket removals. 4 reverts of this in 24 hours on this item, but he has also been reverting multiple editors on his addition to the lead here, here, here, and here. That's two different items on the same articles in a short span of days. And they are being discussed on the talk page. This has to stop, especially since he was given a direct pre-warning this time to stop reverting and join us. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:41, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    @Fyunck(click):, I notice that you went back and reverted the page after posting about the edit war here. Have you ever heard of the boomerang?
    Apparently this dispute revolves around whether some people[who?] consider Nadal to be the Greatest-Of-All-Time, or whether Andre Agassi's claim that Roger Federer is the GOAT is more legitimate. J♯m (talk | contribs) 20:29, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Some talk page discussion has happened, but not enough apparently in relation to the amount of edit warring that is going on. J♯m (talk | contribs) 20:30, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    @Jsharpminor: Wait a minute. He is reverting multiple editors not just me. And he's doing it in several places. I made 3 reverts total... and I hadn't edited the article since December (and that was to add a reference source). Before that, January of 2016. There is a protocol we tend to follow on wikipedia since you've been editing for quite awhile, I'm guessing you know it. You'll also note that he has made multiple reverts without engaging in the talk conversation since February 8! So Boomerang is the least of my concerns here. My concern is he's not letting the process work and is instead disruptive. I jumped into this fray because other editors were being overwhelmed. Certainly you have your opinion on the situation, but I think it's dead wrong. I expect a warning to be given, I expect him not to continue to revert multiple editors, and I expect him to join in the discussion to make the article better. Note something else. One of his concerns was the name of Agassi and McEnroe in the lead and the fact they often change their views. In my last edit I put back the lead but minus those two names. There hadn't been agreement to that yet on the talk page, but I thought it a good compromise while we discussed things. So if you don't think I'm being fair in this, and that you don't think I'm trying to reach some reasonable conclusions and he's not, and that your silly boomerang warning was warranted, then I guess you'll just have to do what you have to do.

    OK. Can we just agree that Inoki have to be grey on the Combined reigns table? So it makes 49, not 50 champs.
