Okay, bear with me, because this has gone pear-shaped very quickly. The last stable version of the article is dated September 14, 2014. 

On September 30, 2014, User:Jimharlow99 made an edit to the Judaism section of the article. ''This entry was prepared according to the Hebrew Babylonian Tradition. It reflects the core of Rabbinic Judaism which has been forfeited, by many sects of Judaism, in favor of "theological" positions outside Judaism.''


 * 1) User:Paul Barlow reverted this odd, but apparently good faith edit.  Undid revision 627696889 by Jimharlow99 (talk) oh please
 * 2) User:Jimharlow99 restored his edit.  Undid revision 627701818 by Paul Barlow (talk) Mr Barlow - the page you insist upon is a Christian View of the Judaic position. My edits reflect a Rabbinic Jewish Position; edited by Rabbis
 * 3) User:Fyrael reverted it.  Undid revision 627716099 by Jimharlow99 (talk) reverting unsourced edit that utterly fails WP:NPOV

As you can see, User:Jimharlow99 refuses to hear any objection to his edit, and although he's been on Wikipedia for at least 7 years, does not seem to be aware that his behavior is inappropriate. I'm hoping that a cooling-off period will give him some time to reflect. - Lisa (talk - contribs) 03:13, 1 October 2014 (UTC)


 * yep, I've been writing content on Wikipedia for a number of years and never have I met such an intransigent group intent upon misinforming as much as disinforming  Wikipedia readers.  I focus my energies of Jewish content- nothing else.  I am a resource for other Wikipedia authors in the area of Judaica, Halakha, monotheistic jurisprudence and localized customs; and am a curator of Jewish genealogy for a number of organizations.  I am a subject matter expert, whereas the reverters seem intent upon forcing a Jew to yield to their Christian consensus of what the Jewish view of "The Golden Rule"  should be.  Utter pedantic foolishness of the sort I've never witnessed on Wikipedia in all these years.  Lise and Mr Barlow have over-reached -- they are at once I'll-qualified to judge Jewish views on the topic, but worse, they insist that the authoritative references I cite are inferior to the mendacious content they continue to revert.  I am at best, underwhelmed...nonetheless gobsmacked that this is tolerated.  Cooling off period? Nonsense...the only cooling off period is incumbent upon editors who insist upon simultaneously censoring subject matter experts in favor of their own POV. Jaim Harlow 03:53, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

User being reported:

Reverting to this version or a similar version of the article. Regular pattern of editor more-or-less reverting to their last preferred version of the article before making any new edits, despite complaints on article and user talk page, and with no explanation beyond that version being "neutral" or having less "advertising". Editor is possibly attempting to insert a particular fact or link without having to justify doing so.

--McGeddon (talk) 19:15, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment:  has been making large reverts to this article since the beginning of September. I see removal of more than 1,000 bytes from the article on Sept 13, 18, 21, 22, 24, 25 and 26. This is a pattern of long-term edit warring. I recommend a block unless they will agree to stop. This article is under probation due to a 2007 Arbcom case. EdJohnston (talk) 23:53, 26 September 2014 (UTC)


 * I think before you over react to this complaint, you need to look closely at the problems in the topic before I started editing it and take into consideration that I have gone to great lengths to incorporate all of the subsequent edits by other editors.


 * The problems are serious, as I have pointed out, e.g. self-published material, links to blogspot, numerous insignificant links advertising the religion's retreat centres etc.


 * The problem is, the topic is being control by followers of the religion who keep reverting to their version.


 * By working together, the BK editors are able to avoid any one of them being accused of 3RR, although they are all reverting to their same version.


 * 1) Changeisconstant
 * 2) GreyWinterOwl
 * 3) Danh108


 * There are many more identical reversions of any changes, even changes inline with the rules.


 * As far as the accusation that I have not discussed the changes, that is not true. I have substantiated all of the changes and largely they have been accepted by others, and that the previous version not only read like an advert but contained numerous factual errors. For example, see here.


 * It seems to me that what is happening here is that a group of followers are working together to protect their religion's topic page and provoking such a conflict by continually reverting to a version that includes many changes which were not discussed when they were made.


 * It's worth pointing out that Brahma Kumari adherents are being coordinated off Wikipedia to work on and protect topics relating to their religion and working together as a group, e.g. Danh108, Changeisconstant, GreyWinterOwl.


 * I hope this clarifies matters. It's also worth pointing out that the BKs did not re-write the topic as it was by discussing it and so the accusation would seem to be unfairly and inaccurately onesided. --Truth is the only religion (talk) 13:40, 28 September 2014 (UTC)


 * I've tried to work out what the impressive list of 10 differences is supposed to show but it is too difficult or unclear to me. What is clear is that I have continued to work cleaning up the topic and combining neutral or beneficial textual edits by other users. I think it would be more usual to consider where the topic started and where it is now, and I would argue where it is now is a better foundation for development.


 * For example, from here to here  (differences ). I think you will agree it is cleaner and more according to the rules. --Truth is the only religion (talk) 14:07, 28 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Althouth this editor claims that 3 "BK editors" are reverting him, the reality is that 7 editors have already reverted his same mass deletion. Just for the record, I don´t like being called a "BK", nor to be referred to as "they" together with 2 editors to whom I never spoke outside wiki nor did I ever participate of any "team" or "plan" involving them. Although I am constantly insulted by this editor, I still try to work with him on the talk page, but his behavior never changes. GreyWinterOwl (talk) 17:43, 28 September 2014 (UTC)


 * If you are going to make broad accusations like "constantly insulted", you should really support them with evidence so others can decide how true they are. --Truth is the only religion (talk) 17:48, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Three more reverts since this report was raised:, ,. --McGeddon (talk) 18:21, 29 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Latest 2 identical reverts today are of the friendly long-term Wikipedians who are giving their time to try and help the page out ,. The edit summary after reverting User:McGeddon was just 'add belief' - doesn't even vaguely reflect what the User is actually changing. Danh108 (talk) 19:26, 29 September 2014 (UTC)


 * The evidence of your constant insults are your constant violations of WP:WIAPA and WP:TPG by constantly making personal remarks that WP:WIAPA characterizes as "personal attacks", specially because there is not a single evidence of them. I don't think I need to be more specific than that, each one just needs to read your posts on talk pages and noticeboards, including this one, read the guidelines and decide for themselves. GreyWinterOwl (talk) 01:04, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

If he does so again, he may be blocked without further notice. I already left a comment above about your repeated removals of text on seven days in September.

The user ElNiñoMonstruo reverts my edits without giving any reason. According to Template:Infobox television, The languages ​​and countries should be linked to articles.


 * Language: The original language or languages of the show. Do not link to a language article, e.g., English, per WP:OVERLINK.


 * Country: The show's country of origin. Do not use flag icons, as this places an unnecessary emphasis on nationality - see MOS:FLAG for a detailed rationale. Do not link to a country article, e.g., United States, per WP:OVERLINK.

Thing that the user does not care and continues as part tells me that these rules are invented myself. I'm trying to add a new template to the article that is linked to soap operas. but the user reverted my edits.

His only response was:
 * I AM PISSED OFF!!!
 * HEY DISRUPTER! YOU ARE FROM VENEZUELA RIGHT? YOU DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT THE PHILIPPINES AND YOU NEVER WATCHED ANY OF PHILIPPINE DRAMAS. I ALREADY STOPPED EDITING ON ALL OF YOUR SPANISH TELENOVELAS ARTICLES A LONG TIME AGO BY USING ALL OF YOUR "REVERTING/UNDO" POWERS. AND NOW YOU ARE BOTHERING ME AGAIN WITH THIS?!? HOW DARE YOU!!?

'The template "ABS-CBN Franchised" and "ABS-CBN Shows (current and upcoming)":

They are related to other programs that are not soap operas, which I created only contains the ABS-CBN soap operas. His other reason is this: The template that you created is unneccesary because it already has it's own article.--McVeigh (talk) 14:42, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

 * User:Drmies I'm of the opposite opinion, based on the ANI. It appears that McVeigh got into an argument with Monstruo ... and in order to "gain the upper hand", McVeigh changed his sig to make him "more superior" to ElNino ... it's not a positive either way though the panda ɛˢˡ”  17:31, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Problems with this user are for months, the first time that began with their personal attacks towards me was with my other account "Chema".

Now just reverts my edits and what it tells me is that these items are of him and I have no right to edit them..-- McVeigh  (talk)  16:19, 1 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Wait a second. So you are now saying that you are accusing me of sockpuppetry? Wow! you are also great at creating stories! For your information, I don't want to be and I will never be associated with you Mr. DJMalik/GeorgeMilan/Jorge Horan/Chema/Damian80/McVeigh/ElSeñordelosCielos.

 * Although these ips deny that vandalized my user page and now is being protected are yours.

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: (All are identical.)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: (non-existent as user Gaba (how he signs himself, but actually "Gaba p") was the instigator; see below)

Comments: The four edits listed above do not by-definition breach 3RR, and would normally not be considered wp:gaming the system either given they stretch to 48 hours, but other circumstances (leading to a maliciously-applied 24hr block of myself) compel me to report this abusive member.

BACKGROUND:

1) Beginning on August 29, there was, in the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis article, an attempt by several editors to prevent inclusion of a new peer-reviewed paper supporting aspects of the hypothesis. Arriving on the scene on Sept. 14, I supported inclusion because the paper (Kennet, 2014) was RS-sourced in a prestigious journal, and felt the "refuted" wording previously present in the article was not an accurate description. While pro/anti tallies are close and there have been sporadic attempts at reversion, inclusion has had consensus.

2) User Gaba( p) arrived on the 25th (he has no prior history of editing the article within viewable 500 edit history stretching back to January 2009), and began reverting to remove the Kennet reference and restore the "refuted" language in the lead of the article. Despite lacking consensus and being a late-arrival, he began admonishing (in his edit commentaries) other editors to explain themselves on the Talk page. (A thread entitled "Continued Removal of Primary References" already existed on the TP; Gaba's last contribution to it, and to the entire TP, dates from last February.)

3) On the 26th, Gaba initiated discussion on my user page (not the Dryas article TP, mind you), again admonishing me to open a topic on the Dryas TP and to revert my edits. (I recommend reading the link in the last sentence now.) Concluding that he was behaving disingenuously after failing to achieve consensus and noting his unwillingness to do what he demanded of other editors (i.e., comment on the TP), I declined. I also told him that I thought he'd followed me over from the Neil deGrasse Tyson article. I have reason to conclude at this point that this activity was to "set me up"/game-the-system to justify a waiting-in-the-wings admin cohort to levy a malicious block (see 5).

4) On 13:59, 27 September 2014, Gaba accused me of edit-warring on my talk page despite my last three edits to the Dryas article at that point being on the 19th, 25th and 26th. In no way, shape or form do three edits over a seven-day period to support consensus violate 3RR or constitute edit-warring (and since Gaba is not a "noob", I am quite sure that he was well aware of this). Defending himself from my stalking charge, he also maintained"...the TP proves I've been following the article for months..." (As noted previously, the TP shows no activity on his part for half a year.)

5) On 21:07, 27 September 2014, less than half a day after Gaba's accusation of edit-warring (and during which period of time from 13:59 to 21:07) I made *no* edits to the Dryas article, the admin 2over0 parachuted in out of the blue to levy a 24hr block on me. Note that no formal accusations (such as this one here) were performed (or if they have, I was not notified per regular procedure).

Conclusion: I would like a general block of greater-than-24hrs duration applied to Gaba for gaming the system and serial dishonesty. I want the malicious block applied to me stricken from the record. Lastly, I would like this whole sordid mess, apparently involving at least one editor and at least one admin, investigated for wolf-pack tactics pursuant to a campaign of intimidation of editors contributing to the Dryas article as well as other "climate change topics". (I can't fathom what the Dryas article has to do with contemporary climate wrangling, but it was Gaba's "Freudian slip" to mention it on my TP, so I am positing it here.)--Froglich (talk) 01:10, 29 September 2014 (UTC)


 * ____ COMMENTARY _____


 * Not sure why you would think mentioning "climate change topics" is a "Freudian slip". In any case, here's how climate change and the impact connect if you are really interested: Younger_Dryas. Regards. Gaba  (talk)  01:48, 29 September 2014 (UTC)


 * By conflating my allusion to "contemporary climate wrangling" (i.e., an obvious reference to anthropogenic global-warming theory) with the Younger Dryas Impact hypothesis (which you admonish me to read as if that weren't the very article under discussion), I am left with concluding you are either deliberating insulting everyone's intelligence here, or are you actually completely clueless.--Froglich (talk) 07:20, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * What? Froglich, the article I pointed you to is Younger Dryas the geological period, obviously connected to the "climate change topic" (which is precisely what I said). This is not the same article as Younger Dryas impact hypothesis as you appear to be implying above. Regards. Gaba  (talk)  11:20, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm sticking with my theory you stalked me over from the Tyson article. Your explanation of having been "following the article for months" while inexplicably sitting on your hands without a word on the TP since February or a single edit whatsoever in the article prior to late September ...rings hollow.--Froglich (talk) 20:57, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Uh-uh. So now that you've finally understood that the article is indeed related to climate change, as I told you before numerous times, and even after I presented the diff showing you I've been following it since last February, not only do you not apologize but instead are doubling down on your bad faith accusation that I followed you into the article a few days ago. Gaba  (talk)  21:13, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I will assume good faith on the part of editors when they're not leading with false accusations.--Froglich (talk) 10:01, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * The request that you assume good faith has long passed, since you clearly will not. You have chosen to keep accusing me of stalking you after I showed I've been following the article since the beginning of the year, you've been corrected on the relation between the article and climate change after commenting you couldn't "fathom" their relation (which you called a "freudian slip" on my part) and you've apologized for neither accusations (among many others, ie: "serial dishonesty", "wolf-pack tactics", etc). I've remained WP:CIVIL this whole time and I'm requesting you cease your attacks please. Regards. Gaba  (talk)  11:17, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * You had no contributions to the article's TP since last February and no edits whatever to the article itself as far back as 2009. While the content of the article seesawed, the consensus of the TP by September 1 was to include the new sources -- given a lack of response on the TP, it is only natural to expect that eventually the article will come to reflect most recent argumentation on the TP. In any event, the article didn't become your baby to own until the 25th of September, when you made your first appearance less than a week after my first appearance, during which time we had both been active in the Tyson article. -- I will stipulate that your explanation is possible if you will stipulate that my conclusion (stalking) is the logical one given that sequence.--Froglich (talk) 12:12, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Me having no contributions to the TP since February means absolutely nothing. For example, other that your comment two days ago you have no contributions to the TP since the article was created in 2008.
 * "the consensus of the TP by September 1 was to include the new sources" except it was absolutely not. If you believe this talk page points to any consensus whatsoever to include anything, you either haven't bothered to read the TP or do not understand what consensus means. The state of the article by Sep 1 BTW was the stable one and it remained that way until you changed it two weeks later after no TP contribution whatsoever (since 2008 I might add).
 * I made my "first appearance" in the article 7 months ago as I have shown over and over again. Your "conclusion" is only the bad faith and combative one, which is no wonder seeing how you behave towards other editors. Regards. Gaba  (talk)  14:04, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Obfuscation. The "article" is the article -- not its associated TP. You had no prior edit presence in the article prior to September 25. This is *easily* ascertained by bring up its history, setting maximum range of 500 edits (going back to 2009), selecting a search term to highlight ("Gaba" in this case), and performing a simple word find on the page. (Full link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Younger_Dryas_impact_hypothesis&offset=&limit=500&action=history ) ....You do not appear before 9/25.--Froglich (talk) 21:28, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * All my reverts on that article were done following WP:BRD attempting to restore the consensus stable version of late August. Since then, editors Froglich and Bkobres have been pushing to insert basically the same edit into the article with editors,  and  myself reverting back to the stable version. All my reverts mention explicitly in the summary the need that either of them follow WP:BRD and open a relevant section at the talk page to discuss the issue, which neither did. The section was finally opened by myself  (now removed by Froglich) after the latest revert pushing the edit into the article (currently up) by Bkobres.


 * Froglich's last revert before he was blocked yesterday was made with a summary of, pointing clearly to his non-willingness to discuss the matter in the talk page or even stating a reason of any kind. By the way, here is my attempt at resolving the matter with Froglich in his talk page after that reversal. His bad faith accusations of me following him to the article in the last few days are easily demonstrated to be false seeing that I commented on it back in February. He appears to be unable to comprehend that "consensus" isn't who gets to push an edit more but something that needs to be achieved through talk page discussion. Let me know if anything is unclear and I'll gladly expand on int. Regards. Gaba  (talk)  01:34, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Your serial hypocrisy and dishonesty continue, but this time in front of a wider audience. At no point recently (within half a year) have you followed your own demands of other editors. Your pace of reversion is greater, you had nothing to say on the TP since the inclusion of Kennet prior to this incident (and it's obvious to see why you didn't given the paper was properly cited to an RS), and you accused others of edit-warring for engaging in less of the same behavior you yourself were happily wallowing in.--Froglich (talk) 01:46, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, what demands have I not followed? To adhere to WP:BRD? Froglich, I believe I've told you this half a dozen times now: when you make an edit to an article and it gets reverted, you do not revert back as you did several times; that is considered edit-warring. What you do after your Bold edit was Reversed is Discuss the issue in the talk page opening a new section to do so, i.e: WP:BRD. In each of my reversals I urged you (and Bkobres) to follow WP:BRD and discuss the matter in the TP before continuing reverting, something neither of you did (the obvious proof of that is that the current version of the article is the one Bkobres' pushed with his last edit). I'm not sure I could make the bold, revert, discuss process any more clear than this. Regards. Gaba  (talk)  01:54, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * As you have been repeatedly reminded, the matter had already been discussed on the Dryas talk page in the thread "Continued Removal of Primary References". You should remember it, not only due to that fact that your one and only submission to the TP (prior to yesterday) was to that very thread, but also because of your claim (made on my TP) to have "been following the article for months".
 * Given your lacking consensus (established by cessation of response from the "anti-Kennet" faction, as I'll call them, in the aforementioned "Continued Removal of Primary References" thread), if you truly believed it was incumbent upon editors to jump through those BRD hoops when their bold edits were reverted, you would have jumped through them yourself. -- But you did not do so, and I have little reason at this point to believe your proffering of BRD rationales were anything other than a lot of specious gobbledegook on your part being tossed out to justify punitive action from a complicit admin. To wit: "gaming the system". --Froglich (talk) 07:09, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * The matter had in fact not been discussed in the TP, at least not by you. The comment made by Bkobres on Aug 31 was done after his revert against WP:BRD, to which  responded. At that point the state of the article was the stable one. Two weeks later you move in and revert to the non consensus version (adding two more edits in line with the revert) which gets immediately reverted. At that precise point the cycle was Bold edit + Revert. The next step by you should have been Discuss as per WP:BRD (eleventh time mentioned). Instead of going to the talk page what you did was revert, then revert, and revert again. There is no contribution made to the issue by you in the talk page of the article until yesterday. You asking me to "jump through those BRD hoops" is illogical since it was not me who made an edit away from the consensus stable version and was reverted, it was you . Thus the onus was and still is on you to discuss the matter in the TP and not revert anymore and the same goes for Bkobres, who is doing pretty much the same thing you did. Regards.  Gaba  (talk)  11:53, 29 September 2014 (UTC)


 * You should have named your "complicit Admin" if you are going to continue making personal attacks - User:2over0. After all, you asked in your unblock request that he be desysopped:"the administrator levying the block for that rationale is, at the best assessment, incompetent for failing to check before levying the block. I want this malicious block not only lifted but stricken from the record (as would be revealed when following the links below either now or in the future), and I want the obviously guilty punished for this blatant abuse of authority. Given the repellent behavior of my accusers, I request the tables be turned and that topic bans be handed out to those responsible, and that 2over0's administrator privileges be revoked." Are you still asking for the following: To third-party administrators: I am requesting that the user Gaba be disciplined in the following manner: 1) a three-month general block for 3RR "gaming the system" and for lying to administrators by accusing other editors of edit-warring when their pace of reversion is slower than his own, and 2) a one-year topic ban on "climate related" articles, to also include the Neil deGrasse Tyson article and the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis article.? And just for info, no one has blocks removed from the record, even those made accidentally (it happened to me but it can't be removed). Dougweller (talk) 09:17, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Doug, if you're going to weigh in, at least do the heavy lifting. (IOW, read everything first; which, if you do, you'll see that 2over0 is mentioned.) Onlookers will observe that Doug was giggling it up on 2over0's user TP yesterday, with neither one of them apparently the least concerned over Gaba's indiscretions (which are, as detailed above, worse than anything I was accused of and punished for). As far as whether "accidental" (malicious) blocks can be removed, I wouldn't know. (If they can't be, it would be a handy way of smearing an editor's permanent record, no? -- I would submit that such may have indeed been precisely the objective, and hence why deeper examination should be undertaken by non-partisan admins [which you are not] beyond dropping a temporary block on Gaba.)--Froglich (talk) 09:44, 29 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Dougweller, yellow text on a red background is really annoying. Please don't do that. --Guy Macon (talk) 22:21, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

05:59, 30 September 2014 (UTC) It is. I never user color. As I said, that's the color he used on his talk page. Sorry. Dougweller (talk) 05:59, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry, missed 2over's mention in your long screed, should have searched. I see once again though a personal attack. Unless you can prove these allegations you probably should be blocked for making them. Dougweller (talk) 10:35, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * That's what investigations are for, Doug; the in-part purpose of this foray being to request one. But your giddy excitement in hoping to secure sentence before the hearing is duly noted, as is your refusal to address the Gaba matter at all. (That's how real ad homina works, of course; changing the subject.)--Froglich (talk) 10:57, 29 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Comment by onlooker Disclaimer, Gaba and I periodically interact well in climate articles
 * (A) This vomitous mass appears to be a run-of-the-mill content disputed in which one side (Froglich) chose to assail the other party instead of using established WP:Dispute resolution procedures to reach WP:Consensus
 * (B) SUGGESTION, 1. Extend Froglich's block for personal attacks and disruption 2. Refuse action on claim Gaba "lied" to admins with instruction that if Froglich wishes he's free to file separate ANI on that specific point so long as he provides diffs to the evidence supporting these extraordinary claims, and cautioning that a claim based on further vomitous hype instead of clear evidence may result in further block extension per WP:BOOMERANG.
 * Overall impression.... yawn. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 13:59, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * PS, I might have taken away a different impression if this complaint had been made calmly with DIFFs and omitting the emotion. Not sure.  Anyone can seek page protection and initiate the DR process, after all, and it doesn't appear that Gaba did that either. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 14:08, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I agree that I should have seeked page protection or initiate a dispute resolution process after seeing neither Froglich nor Bkobres were willing to either do so or even stop their reverting long enough to discuss the matter in the TP as instructed by WP:BRD. I take full responsibility for that. Regards. Gaba  (talk)  14:56, 29 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Reply to (A): "appears to be" being shorthand for "I'm not going to bother to read it all, so I'll just guess what's going on." Well, thanks for your contribution, Sir! ...As stated repeatedly, it is Gaba who did not bother to seek consensus before embarking on a reversion campaign.--Froglich (talk) 20:50, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Reply to (B): Yes, by all means, let's extend sanctions for non-existent "personal attacks" (which we're not even going to bother nebulously defining) and "disruption" (which must refer to my three edits in seven days in support of consensus as opposed to Gaba's four in two against it). Ridiculous.--Froglich (talk) 20:50, 29 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Hypocrisy and fantasy. You don't have consensus in the Dryas article. Prior to this incident, the "anti-Kennet" side had ceased responding in the relevant TP thread for a couple weeks before my first edit (in support of then-established consensus) in the article in mid-September. You couldn't wrest control of the article back even with my absence (due to the recent 24hr block). You had no presence on the TP since last February.. You had yourself not undertaken one single action you "requested" of other editors. But now you're pretending to be accommodating and conciliatory when previously you were anything but.--Froglich (talk) 20:50, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * See my last comment on consensus and WP:BRD. I don't think it can be made any more clear than that. You edit-warred and so did Bkobres. If there's no extra input in the next few days from other editors I'm starting a DR process. Regards. Gaba  (talk)  21:13, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * To keep pushing this narrative that you ever enjoyed consensus is to tell a bald-faced lie. I also observe that this is now the second time you have falsely accused Bkobres of edit-warring for perfectly normal, indeed expected, behavior of an editor (restoring an article to consensus).--Froglich (talk) 21:27, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I never said I had consensus (I hardly could since I never added content to the article) I said you did not which is easily seen just looking at the history of the article: you made an edit, you were reverted (not by me mind you) and immediately you reverted back instead of going to the TP; that alone constitutes edit-warring and is obviously against WP:BRD (not even counting your next two reverts, the last one with a summary of "Blarg"). Can't be made any simpler.
 * Froglich: you've called me a liar among many other things numerous times now and I've remained civil. I'm now politely requesting you stop. Regards. Gaba  (talk)  11:17, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * You falsely accused two others of edit-warring. Retract your false accusations, and we're good.--Froglich (talk) 12:12, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * If anybody should retract anything here it is you Froglich. I remind you that you were blocked precisely for edit warring so it is not me the only one who feels that way. Gaba  (talk)  14:04, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Given that said malicious 24hr block has already been mentioned top, front and center by me by way of establishing background to this whole sordid mess, you are contributing absolutely nothing new by recycling the smear. Furthermore, you don't have exactly that clean of a nose yourself, with two blocks on your record for sock-puppetry and personal attacks: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=block&page=User:Gaba+p ...as the saying goes, people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.--Froglich (talk) 21:28, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

Note to closing admin
 * (A)Goal is producing good articles and sanctions are for prevention not punishment
 * (B)Yesterday Gaba posted 4-point criticism of the edit at article talk (Froglich hasn't replied yet)
 * (C)No obvious purpose served by leaving this open
 * (D)Suggest closing with warning to Gaba and instructing parties who feel further intervention will truly improve wikipedia file a separate complaint based on whatever the remaining behavior gripe(s) might be. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 12:37, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Onlookers note that the preceding urge to quick closure is being made by a Gaba partisan with a history of editing the Dryas impact article and its associated TP.--Froglich (talk) 21:28, 30 September 2014 (UTC)


 * . The commentary here indicates a far more complex problem than is in scope for this board. Please continue to discuss and seek dispute resolution as needed. Spike Wilbury (talk) 14:12, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Comments:

This is an unequivocal 3RR violation by Collect, with all four reverts occurring in less than 1 hour and violating both the letter and the spirit of the edit-warring and 3RR policies. Note that Collect has multiple prior blocks for edit-warring, was previously topic-banned by ArbCom from a subset of political articles for 6 months, and was recently let off with a warning after edit-warring on another political bio. MastCell Talk 18:45, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Note: No warning was given. MastCell is a very active participant in the BLP. The TPM "action" by ArbComwas widely contested at the time and included not a single claim of edit warring, but centered on my quoting Teddy Roosevelt in a talk page post, and has absolutely no relevance here. The edits made by MC included WP:BLP issue related material. And his bringing up my block history is inane - my last block over three years ago was quickly undone by AN/I consensus. And note that MastCell said it was wrong for me (even indirectly trouted me for daring to start an RfC of all thins!) to start RfCs on the edits which he now asserts means I was edit warring - even where one was directly contrary to an RfC closed a bare week ago in any event . In short, the OP is fully as culpable, has violated WP:CONSENSUS by making an edit directly contrary to a very recent RfC settle on BLP grounds, and is so involved in the topic that he fails to see his own shortcomings in violating WP:CONSENSUS. Cheers. Violation of WP:BLP as noted in the RfC which MC now wishes to abrogate by himself is sufficient cause for reverting. Collect (talk) 19:04, 1 October 2014 (UTC) Reverts 2 and 4 were specifically pursuant to an RfC decided on WP:BLP policy grounds on 25 September, Revert 3 is on the basis per WP:BLP the claim is not found in the source cited and is a contentious claim. One is simple revert. Cheers. Collect (talk) 19:09, 1 October 2014 (UTC)


 * The editor didn't assert in any of the edit summaries that there were BLP violations he/she was correcting -- so it won't be very plausible to rely on that sort of assertion now. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 19:07, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Where an RfC was settled on WP:BLP issues, the edit summary start an RfC - but one of the edits goes directly against an RfC for ONE WEEK AGO - this is absolutely contrary to WP:CONSENSUS is clear. read WP:CONSENSUS -- this is getting to be a problem here when contentious partisan claims get added to BLPs on any side) clearly invokes BLP as the consideration.   gaining consensus before making this into Braley's campaign brochure - I suggest you seek such before continuing such BOLD contentious edits on the BLP please also clearly invokes the rules about inserting contentious claims in any BLP.   I suggest that where such clear assertions are made, that it is clearly true that I was relying onWP:BLP here.   Cheers. Collect (talk) 19:13, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Note the responses to the RfCs which I properly started:
 * Sigh. Has anyone actually put such language into the article or pushed to re-insert it? If so, diffs please. If not, then why are we wasting time with an RfC? This is exceptionally WP:POINTy, a waste of editors' time, and a poorly conceived and phrased RfC. I would suggest closing the RfC and trouting Collect. After that, perhaps we could come back with a more serious discussion or RfC about the Social Security material. MastCell Talk 16:37, 1 October 2014 (UTC) 
 * If Cwobeel has made objectionable edits, then the discussion should be focused on those edits, not on his choice of words in a talkpage post. I'm not sure how to say that in a way that you'll understand, but nonetheless I'm not going to participate further in this improperly formed RfC. In the future, please use the process more responsibly. MastCell Talk 19:00, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * As another editor (Elaqueate) noted, the previous RfC was poorly formulated, and I don't think its results clearly endorsed or rejected a discussion of Ernst's comments on Agenda 21, but rather rejected the specific approach taken in previous edits. I think it is reasonable to include 2-3 sentences as this is a topic that attracted significant coverage in reliable sources and is relevant as a minor aspect of a politician's biography. The exact language of our coverage needs to be based on the best available reliable sources. The current wording in Collect's RfC does not appear in the article at present. I would favor the current language, although I'm biased since I wrote it. What are the actual arguments for and against here (noting that "it was added without prior discussion" is not an actual argument on the merits of the content)? MastCell Talk 18:15, 1 October 2014 (UTC) where MC seeks to undo a properly closed RfC from one week ago. He indicates here that he knows his edits are directly contrary to that RfC which was conducted onWP:BLP policy grounds.  Thus he knew the issue was WP:BLP   Collect (talk) 19:17, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't indicate anything of the sort, and this kind of tortured misrepresentation of other peoples' comments is a major part of the problem here. MastCell Talk 19:23, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * (ec)Lastly - MC, had you actually asked me to self-revert, I would have done so. I do not like the dramah boards and folks who bring up events from 3 and 4 years back.  Cheers. Collect (talk) 19:27, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * History suggests otherwise. The last time I asked you to self-revert for one of your repeated 3RR violations, you gave me a long, wikilawyering argument and questioned whether I was capable of counting to 4. You also charmingly removed my responses to give yourself the last word. Subsequently, when I came to your page about a different behavioral issue, you dismissed my concerns as "bullshit" and told me to "stay the hell off this page" (, bold in original, of course). I now avoid your talkpage&mdash;at your express demand&mdash;except for required notifications. MastCell Talk 19:43, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Collect is clearly aware of 3RR when it suits him. --Tryptofish (talk) 19:19, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes. Also, let's be clear. None of these edits which Collect reverted are remotely BLP violations. None. They are all properly sourced and relevant. None of them fall under the 3RR exemption for BLP, which is intended to defend people who are removing clear violations and which Collect has misused before. This is straight-up edit-warring over a content dispute, and 4RR in <1 hour isn't remotely acceptable. MastCell Talk 19:22, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * (ec) I agree that Tryptofish's "technical self-revert" was risible. (Bishonen) and the reportt was declined as you made no further reverts after the warning.   seems to indicate something quite interesting.    Cheers - but this has naught to do with the case at hand. And where an RfC states that something is contrary to policy, it is usually true that someone thinks the edit is contrary to policy.  Amazingly enough. Collect (talk) 19:27, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, if that's what you took away from it, I guess you aren't as aware as I gave you credit for. --Tryptofish (talk) 19:30, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * (ec) I've looked over the reverts, and to me, none of them seem to be justified by significant BLP issues. I've also taken a look at the RfCs on the talk page, and find no justification for violating WP:3RR there. Especially if a position has wide support via an RfC, it is not necessary for a single editor to edit-war on this issue - there will be others which have interest in the topic. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 19:28, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * IOW it is proper for an editor to unilaterally abrogate an RfC result from a week ago and make an edit against the WP:BLP policy - but improper for anyone to actually follow the WP:BLP policy? Tres interessant et tres amusant. Collect (talk) 19:40, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * No, IOW: don't edit war, period. If you're right, then another editor will agree with you. That's the basic tenet of editing here. Claiming that you're right still isn't justification for edit-warring. Only somebody who was unsure that anyone else would agree with them would feel the need to personally make four reverts in an hour. So why do it? --RexxS (talk) 20:14, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * As I noted, a warning as (reasonably ought to be) required would have brought a self-revert. Cheers. Collect (talk) 20:39, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * wait, you would have restored a "BLP violation"?? Nomoskedasticity (talk) 21:15, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Nonsense. First off, policy explicitly states: "A warning is not required" (they are recommended "if the user appears unaware that edit warring is prohibited"). One should read policy before making assertions about it. Your track record of responding to requests for self-reverts is poor. You also haven't responded to RexxS' question. MastCell Talk 20:46, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

I suggest the article (Joni Ernst) be locked (even to a "wrong version" and suggest further that the OP has an eensy bit of animus showing here, which does not redound in his favour. The goal is to prevent disputes,  and use of dispute resolution such as RfC is proper, not to invoke disputes from four and five years ago as part of the discussion, IMO.  Cheers to all. Collect (talk) 20:55, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment. I do not believe that edit #3 listed by the OP should be treated as a revert. It clarifies rather than undoes the previous edit, and does not (so far as I see) restore previous text. The text which Collect modified also appears to have been inaccurate (or improper OR/SYNTH); there are important differences between saying the federal government should not take a particular action, and that its powers should be limited to prevent it from taking that action. (Simple analogy: I don't believe my local government should prohibit on-street parking in my neighborhood, but it is quite appropriate for it to have the general power to do so.) This edit, therefore, would also appear to be a good faith attempt at BLP compliance. No opinion expressed on other specific edits. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 21:29, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * . Collect does indeed have multiple prior blocks for edit-warring, but it's been several years since the last time (and since any block), and that's the reason I don't give him a week. However, taking into account this warning in June 2014, as well as the battleground attitude he evinces, 48 hours seems right. Collect, you have so much editing experience, and indeed edit warring experience, including experience of posting vexatious litigation on this board, that it's unexpected to see you complain repeatedly about not getting a warning. The way you misuse a quote from my decline of your 3RR report here is more than unexpected, it takes my breath away, I'm awed. You take cherry-picking to a whole new level. Bishonen &#124; talk 22:13, 1 October 2014 (UTC).


 * I strongly disagree with this just-instituted block (in fact I was just composing the following in response to Hullaballoo Wolfowitz's comment above) -- as there are not four reverts here as claimed. In fact, I would hold that the claim that there are four in the notice arguably represents a knowingly specious submission. Here are the huge alterations of the "preceding edit" in question. By comparison, here is the tiny tweak of #3. -- That is not a "revert" in any way, shape or form unless every anthill is accounted a equal-height Himalaya.
 * Lastly, as Bishonen indicates, he is not a neutral onlooker given prior disputes with the editor, and hence ethically ought to have recused himself from this particular judgment. A negative comment would have been more appropriate.--Froglich (talk) 22:34, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I strongly agree with the action taken. You don't need four reverts to be edit-warring and everybody here is well aware of it. To edit-war is fundamentally antithetical to the whole ethos of collaborative editing and there's no excuse for it. As for Bishonen, she is an uninvolved admin by any definition of the word. Check WP:INVOLVED where you'll find the words "One important caveat is that an administrator who has interacted with an editor or topic area purely in an administrative role, or whose prior involvements are minor or obvious edits which do not speak to bias, is not involved and is not prevented from acting in an administrative capacity in relation to that editor or topic area." Collect could easily get unblocked by simply promising not to edit-war again, but chooses instead to insist that he's right. Relying on the so-called "exemption" for putative BLP violations is not a tenable defence. If it really is an indisputable BLP vio then somebody else will join in to revert the violation. The damage done to the encyclopedia by leaving a BLP vio an extra few minutes pales into insignificance compared to the damage that edit-warring wreaks on the encyclopedia every day on a such a large scale. --RexxS (talk) 22:55, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Disputes? How do you mean? I have had no disputes with Collect. I don't edit those articles, and I don't dispute with him or anyone else about them. I do however watch this board, in my capacity as an admin, and sometimes (rather infrequently, I'm not here that much) decline a complaint, sometimes block in response to it. Those are admin actions. Naturally, I don't take them w r t articles or areas where I'm involved, and a fortiori not w r t editors I have disputes with. My decline of this report wasn't a dispute. I was going to quote WP:INVOLVED, but RexxS already did. Bishonen &#124; talk 23:01, 1 October 2014 (UTC).
 * A "revert" means any edit (or administrative action) that reverses the actions of other editors, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material. [...] The rule is not an entitlement to revert a page a specific number of times (emphasis mine).--Stephan Schulz (talk) 23:17, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * (1. reply to Bishonen) You mentioned prior history involving a "misuse (of) a quote", lending the appearance of a conflict of interest. In any event, apologies for assuming you were a guy. (2. reply to Rexx5) Given that the #3 Collect edit in question doesn't restore the article sub-section to its same appearance prior to the voluminous "preceding edit" of Mastcell and amounts to a single sentence, it's really a shady call to assertively declare it a "revert". You folks gettin' down with strict interpretations arguably harms the encyclopedia by relegating hotly debated articles to a revolving series of gargantuan snowball edits (such as Mastcall's) to multiple sections at once because nobody dares to post more than three times day. (3. To the submitter) I really hope you're happy with yourself -- wear that crummy aluminum medallion pinned to your chest with pride; you've vanquished another opponent at the lists! (Is there a "Cheap Victory" Barnstar?)--Froglich (talk) 08:53, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * My dear Mr Lich I doubt very much that there is a such a thing as a "Cheap Victory" Barnstar." For if there were, surely you would be puffing up your manly chest with several of them. What is this dreadfully vulgar " " at poor, dear Mrs Bishonen? Do you imagine that she's leaning against a lamppost, wearing fish net stockings just so that some some socially inept oaf can pass by and wink at her? That may be acceptable in your part of the world, but I can assure you that it's not in mine. At the very least an apology and a bunch of flowers is called for. Then just pray that she doesn't hit you over the head with them. The Lady Catherine de Burgh (talk) 20:06, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * WP:NOT3RR is pretty clear What counts as exempt under BLP can be controversial. Consider reporting to the BLP noticeboard instead of relying on this exemption, and prudence dictates an editor claiming should clearly label it as such; Collect did not do that, stating instead [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Joni_Ernst&diff=627847001&oldid=627846825 "(start an RfC - but one of the edits goes directly against an RfC for ONE WEEK AGO - this is absolutely contrary to WP:CONSENSUS)"] Furthermore, the "three" is a standard to give clueless newbies some slack, per WP:AVOIDEDITWAR a savvy Wikipedian won't get anywhere close to 3 reverts in 24 hrs. Finally, a 48 hour block is hardly "vanquishing" NE Ent 10:03, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, it was sarcasm over a cheap kill. (BTW, Mastcell had 9 edits in one hour in this particular article on the 1st; I haven't examined them, but if it should transpire that any four of them even remotely revert anything any other editor has contributed, do you suppose he'd volunteer to fall on his sword?)--Froglich (talk) 11:28, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * A series of consecutive saved revert edits by one user with no intervening edits by another user counts as one revert. Please do your part to improve the S/N ratio here and elsewhere by doing a quick sanity check before you make snide remarks (yes, I know, bricks and glass houses - do as I say, not as I do ;-). --Stephan Schulz (talk) 12:35, 2 October 2014 (UTC)


 * You didn't look at MastCell's edits before commenting about how they might perhaps be reverts, and you can hardly have looked at this thread, let alone click on the link I'd provided, before having a vision that I might be "not a neutral onlooker given prior disputes with the editor". And upon learning I'm a woman, you wink roguishly. Are you intent on embarrassing yourself? Why do you talk at all? Bishonen &#124; talk 13:19, 2 October 2014 (UTC).
 * To WP:BATTLEGROUND here and at other forums. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 14:55, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * As if you're not? Gimme a break. And rather than accepting an apology, Bishonen is apparently on hair-trigger mode this morning as well. -- This character-trait of poking and goading to generate an imprudent (and actionable) response is one I have seen in action before, which is why I'll take my leave of this now.--Froglich (talk) 15:56, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I got a 3rd party with whom you were duking it out to specify content-oriented criticisms, and I invited your content-oriented response. If you think that is what "battleground mentality" means.... then nevermind. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 16:45, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Note that while the diffs I provided above link to edits made from IP addresses, they are clearly all made by this user.

 * The man has reverted edits which were actual improvements to the article, contrary to WP:ONLYREVERT. They keep doing total reverts which are not accepted by the editor and other people, instead of marking things they deny or doubt with the 'fact' template. According to WP:ONLYREVERT and the general rule of freedom of improvement and encouraging to edit, it is ImprovingWiki and his friend Goethian who are offending. 46.77.124.247 (talk) 09:48, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

You decided that your edits were improvements, and that therefore your views must prevail, no matter how many other editors disagreed with you. That is not how things are supposed to work here. It is really too bad if you don't like it. That essay which you keep citing, over and over, does not override actual policies such as WP:NOR. Goethean certainly seemed to think the material you added was original research.

There is a clear consensus at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Days of the year that my edits are constructive and a step in the right direction. Damn right I'm going to edit war and become aggressive if you insist on reverting sourced content which I took the time to write which complies with WP:MOS. This is pure vandalism, any decent editor here can see it is destructive. Arthur Rubin reverted more times, you didn't warn him did you?? Arthur Rubin is clueless how to build content and what articles require. ♦ Dr. Blofeld  19:27, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

 * You've been here long enough to know (1) you don't edit war even when correct, (2) Wikipedia is not a battleground, (3) not to become aggressive in your editing, and (4) never to make personal attacks. There is no consensus on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Days_of_the_year or Talk:September 1, and discussion has been going for a whole 2 days.

I don't understand your urgency here or why you refuse to allow a discussion to occur. Anyway, that Arthur or SchroCat had a back and forth yesterday does not excuse your behavior today. You started by calling Arthur a shitty editor and then proceeded to revert the edits. I reverted you once to remind you to discuss the issue, and then again since it was clear you wanted to edit war so I warned you. Upon your third revert, I initiated this post (stopping the ew and leaving your bold edit for someone else to deal with). Anyway I'm done trying to explain this to a seasoned editor.

The style and insistence that it doesn't need to be sourced is based on whatever convention has existed from as far back as when even Jimmy Wales was an editor here and that's saying something!!♦ Dr. Blofeld  19:54, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Arthur Rubin reverted three times earlier too. Did you template him and report him here Evergreen? No. ♦ Dr. Blofeld  19:32, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * No, SchroCat did (who was also templated). They both stopped and actually discussed the issue (without making multiple personal attacks). Again, the issue is WP:BRD... you refuse to respect the revert and discuss part and try to impose your edit.  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) Please &#123;&#123;re&#125;&#125; 19:40, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * "They both stopped and actually discussed the issue": Can I just correct you: I walked away from such close-minded intransigence. If you (and Rubin) could stop Wikilawyering and warring for more than 30 seconds, and ask yourself: "Does the addition of a lead improve the encyclopaedia". At the end of the day, that is all that counts, not running to 3RR when someone has not breached 3RR. - SchroCat (talk) 19:48, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I refuse to respect the revert because there is clear consensus here that the sourced lead is a desirable addition from at least four very respected regulars. Why on god's green earth would you ever think a non sourced article without a lead summary would be a superior article? ♦ Dr. Blofeld  19:42, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * EvergreenFir, as you've already pointed out: 1. Blofeld has not violated 3RR. 2. You have edit warred to the exact same equal degree as he has. 3. (to quote you): "you don't edit war even when correct". What exactly are you trying to achieve here. If you think Blofeld should be blocked for edit warring (which I presume is the basis of your visit here), then you are equally guilty as him, and should face exactly the same action. Is that really what you are after? As I have said elsewhere: neither you, Arthur Rubin, nor any project own the page. The page, as it stands, fails the MoS guidelines: a lead would make it so. The oft-repeated claims that it is impossible to summarise the page without falling into POV are spurious in the extreme, and can be easily overcome if people are try and open their minds for a change. - SchroCat (talk) 19:45, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * would ANI be better since this is a personal attack + edit warring? This is not about ownership, this is about consensus and discussion. 48 hours is fast even if everyone agreed, and not everyone does.  The number of edits are not the issue here, it's the timing, nature, and order of them. WP:EW makes it clear that 3rr is the bright line, but that it's not necessary to be edit warring. From WP:EW: An edit war occurs when editors who disagree about the content of a page repeatedly override each other's contributions, rather than trying to resolve the disagreement through discussion. I am not trying to override Blofeld, I'm trying (repeatedly) to get discussion going and have BRD followed. As I, I really don't care too much about the structure of the lead, but it clearly needs to be discussed (as I said ) as there is a project consensus to not have large leads and WP:STATUSQUO applies.  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) Please &#123;&#123;re&#125;&#125; 19:56, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * You've templated me about edit warring when you also were engaged in it and have reported me here when I could have also done the same thing to you. It's pathetic. That you even think ANI would be constructive illustrates how bloody clueless you are in dealing with content issues. "This is not about ownership, this is about consensus and discussion." -exactly, and there is already significant feeling that you're wrong to revertAny project which rejects basic editing procedures and goes against FA/FL requirements is clearly in need of being kicked into touch and brought out of the Wales-Sanger period into modern times.♦ Dr. Blofeld  19:58, 2 October 2014 (UTC)


 * No, opening of minds will never be achieved on any dramah board: I've rarely seen any actual improvements to the encylopaedia come from visits there. The PAs are also rather minor, and the civility pillar is something of a joke. I'm afraid it is about ownership: that of the project, and it's against any form of common sense that you may wish to apply. As I have said above, please stop wikilawyering: things never improve when people use the rules as weapons against others; it goes back to what will or will not improve the encyclopaedia, not over which forum to use, or which rules are the best weapons. - SchroCat (talk) 20:01, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment: A number of people are right on the edge of making four reverts. I hope they will pause for reflection. Can anyone suggest where the best place to work out an agreed solution would be? (You disagree on whether day-of-the-year articles can have leads). Someone could open an RfC at WT:DAYS. With enough publicity for the RfC you might be able to avoid having the thread 'captured' by a local project view. Or how about WT:MOS? Does anyone have a better idea? Continuing the war will probably force admins to do something that not everyone will be happy with. EdJohnston (talk) 20:51, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, Ed, Hoops can be jumped through, but when the MoS already states "List articles are encyclopedia pages consisting of a lead section followed by a list", then there isn't much more to be said that is worthwhile, to be honest. As for admins coming in, the last one that did edit warred to the point I templated him for 3RR. - SchroCat (talk) 20:55, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * The existing discussion on WT:DAYS is fairly new (less than 2 days) so it's not clear if a local consensus can be made yet or not. An RfC would be grand if no consensus is reached there. The whole reason I filed this notice was because discussion was being ignored and rushed (and the personal attacks didn't help... but sadly, as SchroCat said, a certain group of people see the civility pillar as a farce).  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) Please &#123;&#123;re&#125;&#125; 20:58, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * It's because the consensus is miles out of date (it's nine bloody years old, for crying out loud!), the entire page is unsourced, the page fails MoS in terms of sourcing, lead, quality and 101 other bits. If this was filed at WP:FLC today, I'd remove the nomination within seconds. There seems to be a large amount of straw clutching and wikilawyering going on here, not helped by edit-warring admins who are more keen to protect a mythical set of rules and a project's ownership, than in any thoughts of improving the encyclopaedia. EvergreenFir, you miscontrue what I have said slightly: it's not a "certain group of people" regarding civility - it's part and parcel of the modus operandi here - just read through the threads at AN and ANI. - SchroCat (talk) 21:04, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Now that everyone is so calm and happy this might be a good time to try to close in an agreeable way. If we can count on everyone who has commented above to *not* revert again for the next 48 hours this complaint might be closed with no action. If we have no hope of that then admins could put on the inevitable five days of full protection. Which is better? EdJohnston (talk) 21:14, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * If the same constraints also apply to Arthur Rubin, and to any other of the project members who try to "defend" their territory by deleting the only cited material on the page.... - SchroCat (talk) 21:17, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't mind it being restored to it's pre-bold status, but I'm fine so long as discussion is done. However those personal attacks really should be addressed... it seems to be a recurring problem for multiple commenters here.  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) Please &#123;&#123;re&#125;&#125; 22:02, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Another revert? Good grief! That would not be productive, constructive or an improvement, regardless of what policy or guideline you try and wikilawyering into the conversation. It's unlikely the PAs will be addressed: they are extremely minor and are not interfering with the discussion: just ignore them. - SchroCat (talk) 22:18, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

 * @Mark Nah. "You're full of shit, I did discuss the issue here..." was a (vulgar) refutation of Evergreenfir's claim that there was no consensus.  The good doctor could just have easily said "Your claim is unfounded, I did discuss the issue here..." which has the same exact meaning, but minus the vulgarity (and possibly minus the satisfying release).  And after a quick glance at the discussion, it does seem that EvergreenFir was being disingenuous.  On that talk page  who said At the moment, EvergreenFir you are offering nothing to the discussion and are simply hiding behind BRD. I appreciate that a consensus should be sought, but at the moment that consensus seems to be against you.  Others agreed the edit was an improvement.  Doc's version of events reflects what was written on the talk page.  EvergreenFir's, not-so-much.  EF cries "personal attack" every other edit.

 * Result: No action. Please use WT:DAYS or other suitable venue to discuss this. If there are more reverts about the lead of September 1 in the next 48 hours some admin will most likely apply blocks or protection to stop the war. EdJohnston (talk) 03:26, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

When he first come to AN3, it resulted in Talk:Nofel Izz; his trick is to rush to AN3 to get you who disputes him to stop contributing so that he can push on with his views even when majority clearly disagree. Ronz is reporting me now for correcting him by reverting a talk page section title contributed by another user which he changed for no just reason but (probably) to hide or suppress its critical view of the RfC he started.

Result: Both User:Ronz and User:Johnmoor are warned against any further changes to talk headers, before gaining an explicit consensus to make the change on the talk page. It is very tricky to change the parameters of an RfC once it is opened. It might be better to request that the current RfC be closed per WP:AN/RFC before raising new questions. Any closing admin who perceives that the headers were manipulated may hold that against the party responsible. Anyone who voted in a section whose header changed might need to revote. EdJohnston (talk) 16:41, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I've made no reverts, so if we want to address the other problems, we should do so in a proper venue.
 * I will refrain from making changes to section headers created by others. However, I think if we are concerned about the headers, that we block Johnmoor if he continues to use them to shift focus from improving the article to focusing on me, as he's been doing? I've been extremely patient with Johnmoor's ownership of the article and attacks against me. However, I don't think anyone should stop efforts to improve the article. As Johnmoor doesn't believe in consensus by any definition that fits our policies, I'm at a loss here. --Ronz (talk) 14:00, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Deplorably, the evidence at Talk:Nofel Izz, particularly Talk:Nofel Izz and Talk:Nofel Izz, supported by the differences above and the history of Nofel Izz with the many discussions on my talk page (some already archived) contradicts your claims, User:Ronz — just a classic case of being WP:POINTy and desperate to WP:WIN at all costs. —JOHNMOORofMOORLAND (talk) 20:49, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * So your edit-warring is justified because you assume bad faith and ownership of the article where you are a paid editor? Are you going to continue to edit-war or not? --Ronz (talk) 21:51, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Look at who wants to lay claim to WP:NPA!

I did not re-add the unreliable source in question, although I did add a new source which the user has not commented on. I explained my edits in the edit summary. Looking at the edit history for the article, the user has been very persistent in keeping the Genre field blank for a long time, regardless of whether sources were added or not. I did not revert or undo any edits on the page, and they only reverted mine once, and somehow it has already escalated to this. The accusing user has made no attempt to discuss the matter on the article's talk page. No edit war has taken place. I also never stated nor suggested that I was an administrator (?!?!?).

Comments:

I'm not sure how this should end up. I'm only reverting it because I believe that it is removing valuable information from the article. Riot, a long-established band recently had their oldest (founding) member Mark Reale pass away in 2012. In 2014 the band announced they would continue as Riot V, with members that were part of the band in the past. The user in question doesn't believe anything regarding the new version of the band, Riot V, belongs on the article for Riot. I personally believe that this is a case of a name change and continuation of the band, and doesn't warrant an entirely new article. The member in question claims it is disrespectful to discuss this new version of the band on the Riot page, since Mark Reale never approved of the continuation of the band (he can't at this point, as he has died). I don't see how information about Riot V is not relevant to enclose on the Riot page, as it is a direct continuation of the band, not an entirely different effort. I would prefer to keep the large amount of information about Riot V that had been previously compiled on the article. I discussed it on the talk page, but the member in question seems a bit adamant on the matter. I can definitely see where he/she's coming from, but I don't see how separating it into two articles would be sensible as the band is essentially the same group. They have the same website, the same facebook page, albeit with an added V everywhere since continuing with the same name without Mark Reale wouldn't really be polite. Vortiene (talk) 03:16, 3 October 2014 (UTC)


 * He/she went on to describe reasons he/she does not want discussion of the continuation on the article other than what I initially said, quoting the talk page: "Riot V is a NOT in any way a continuation of the band RIOT, they are just copying what has already been. No… they are trying to link there band to a band that has already been…thus trying to ride on some others history. When a user is looking for the band RIOT, they are looking for that band…not some other band that’s trying to sound like them and do not have any right to that bands name." Which seems to lend to the thought that his/her edits are based partially on opinion. He/she subsequently went on to discuss how the band Dio's article is not called Dio's Disciples (which is an extreme case), but made sense, and I said that this example does not justify completely removing any discussion of the continuation in Riot V, since the band Dio's article still goes on to discuss Dio's Disciples as well. If a name change of the article is what he/she's after, I'm fine with that, but voiding discussion of Riot V seems restrictive to providing accurate information on the article. Vortiene (talk) 05:34, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I Admit also that I previously did a move on this article, from Riot (band) to Riot V, which may have been a bit hasty and may have contributed to the formation of this edit war. I'm completely open to moving it back to Riot (band), but I believe completely avoiding discussion of the band's continuation in Riot V is a bit draconian, as it is recent, relevant information regarding the band. Vortiene (talk) 05:40, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Jacktrobe is also a long-time editor of the article on Mark Reale. I don't think it's out of the question that his edits removing content related to the band's development after the death of Mark Reale are based on the POV of a fan of Mark Reale, and not a neutral point of view. He adamantly believes that the band is nothing without Mark Reale, that it is a completely different venture, and should be discussed elsewhere. He believes this such that he refuses to discuss inclusion of Riot V at all, despite apparent similarity outside of the departure of Mark Reale. Vortiene (talk) 14:55, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

The user admits to changing the article title but he does not have that right does he or she?

The user has just come out of a week long block for edit warring and has simply picked up exactly where he/she left off - "a luta continua".

Given that none of the advice and warnings about proper editorial behaviour has had the slightest corrective effect at all, and the rather long record of problematic behaviour by this editor over more than a year, I'm of the opinion that an indefinite block may be in order. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 11:08, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

I am not the one who started this. Zarpboer has repeatedly reverted my edits and ignored my sources. I haven't even had time to add all of them before my edit was reverted. Placing the blame entirely on me isn't just. It is true that I have made mistakes in the past. I won't deny that, but I have worked to improve myself and to do better. If you punish me for this transgression, then it follows that you should punish the other guilty party, though in my opinion, the other party is to blame for this conflict. If one needs evidence of said conflict, look no further than the talk page of the article in question. I am not an instigator, nor was I the first person to add the information Zarpboer deleted. I merely set out to restore the information deleted by said user. Zarpboer deleted entire sections of the article without making any discernable attempt to find or verify sources for the information the user deleted. When said user deleted the edits again, I tried to discuss it with him on the talk page, where he not only criticized my work and sources, but also refused to reach a compromise. I eventually decided to simply preserve the dates in the infobox in order to satisfy the user, but they wouldn't even accept that. Around this time another user, going by the name of Mitsukorina (though I may have spelled it incorrectly, as the name looks Japanese, a language which I am not fluent in) took my side and joined the discussion, only to be met with criticism and a stubborn refusal to reach a consensus. I tried to keep the discussion civil, but the users constant criticism and accusations tried my patience. Mitsukorina also appears to have also lost his or her patience. I must apologize for not coming to you for help in the matter, but the last time I tried to report someone (after giving them a final warning), they beat me to it after and I got banned. Since then I have made no attempt to report other users. Now, in the face of such troubling accusations, and facing possibility of being indefinitly banned from a site I love and have contributed much to, I beg you to show some sympathy and mercy. Thank you. Toolen (talk) 19:54, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

Hello, you can verify that the edits do not violate the 3 reversion rule, as several of them (including 628259566|21:53, 4 October 2014) are not reversions at all, but addition of new content taking into account suggestions. This focused on the research contributions of professors, and added new citations. Also, there is active participation on the article's talk page, which can also be verified.

 * I would like to defend myself. I continually edited as I believe there is a legitimate anti-British bias that is affecting the quality of the page in question. Many other users back me up and I have evidence that only one day ago there was a blatantly inaccurate listing of the British contribution and all I did was tried to amend it to benefit the quality of the article. Why is that the people who kept putting Britain at the bottom of the rankings were not reported for bias and edit warring? It takes two to tango. VeryangryBrit (talk) 14:00, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

User Signedzzz seems to be owning the page by reverting and removing the edits that are not to his/her liking. Within a 24 hr period from 4/10 to 5/10, he/she had made more than 10 reverts. STSC (talk) 09:12, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

I guess I'm supposed to respond? I had 3 conflicts with this editor:
 * He kept adding this [US Openly Approves Hong Kong Chaos it Created to External links
 * He kept altering the infobox, removing protest sites (or, later, just marking them as "abandoned" or whatever it was he said):, note the edit summary, "Infobox - ce". Surely an experienced editor like him, who knows what "ce" means, also knows that removing the most vital information from an infobox (right at the top of the page, getting 20,000+ views per day) is nothing like "copyediting"? This was a particularly important revert, since Hong Kongers would have been just getting up, and wondering whether to go to work or to protest, quite plausibly - it did occur to me that it was his intention to convey false information for this very reason. Why else, I wonder, did he persist? Next one,  "According to the fact" (not a fact in any source, reliable or otherwise)  ES "ce"!.  ES "show us the sources"- like I have to prove the sites still exist !  here instead of removing 3 of the 6 sites, he inserts the text "cleared by 3 October" (ie the previous day) next to them. At this point, since no one else is noticing the problem with all the crowd of unimportant edits going on, instead of reverting I have the bright idea of adding "citation needed" in the infobox next to "cleared by 3 October". Eventually, someone removed the tag along with his uncited "cleared by 3 October" - and it was only after this that he opened the talk page section, where he implied that I had "no right to argue" because I was, in his opinion, "sitting in an armchair in Europe". (As a particularly ingenious editor pointed out, he is forced to endure a harsh existence in Adelaide, South Australia).
 * He, and the editor Dark Liberty, who you guys were meanwhile taking your time about blocking (see section, above) objected to:

"The People's Daily stated in a front page commentary on 4 October that the protests 'could lead to deaths and injuries and other grave consequences.'" The objection was to the word "stated". (the source, NYT, used "said"). He felt that this was POV, and insisted that "warned" or "warned the protestors" should replace it (although it wasn't addressed to the protestors, but rather mainland Chinese readers, as I patiently explained in edit summaries). Again, he only decided to discuss this particular issue on the talk page after he had given up. The most bizarre argument I have had yet, over my reason for thinking that "stated" is a neutral word. He accused me of having some dark ulterior motive, of course. I failed to get annoyed, since this was merely surreal after what had happened earlier.

I hope that's not too much detail. Let me know if it's not enough. I might be away for a while, now, though. zzz (talk) 13:52, 5 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Comment: User:Signedzzz was merely maintaining the page in the face of two editors pushing POV. User:Dark Liberty was suspended for edit warring. User:STSC has a long history of obfuscating potentially controversial edits within convoluted article restructuring (note "Treaty of Nanking" changed to "British occupation", for example), or as User:Signedzzz noted, through an innocuous-sounding "c/e" edit summary. Nearly all his/her edits on Hong Kong subjects ultimately serve to promote a specific political worldview. And it is pretty rich of him to try to shut up another editor by accusing them of "sitting in an armchair in Europe" and not knowing the local situation when he doesn't live in the city himself yet inexplicably holds an intense interest in imposing his politics (and little else) on Hong Kong-related articles (and other controversial subjects related to China). It is also hypocritical of STSC to accuse anyone of "owning" a page when STSC tends to enforce his/her political edits through blunt force reverting, for example on the Hong Kong and Occupy Central with Love and Peace pages. When I run into this sort of dispute with him, I usually give up. User:STSC appears to have reported User:Signedzzz here because User:Signedzzz didn't give up. The "US Openly Approves Hong Kong Chaos it Created" shouldn't be spammed on the protest pages unless it is reflected by a reliable source, which it presently isn't.

The four links are to versions, not to diffs. I see only 3 reverts, since the second and third versions are contiguous and the third is the result of a minor edit (removed one insignificant word). The reverts are #1 #2 #3. So 3RR was not broken even though this looks like an edit war in the making (Christophe Krief keeps removing a source that Serten keeps inserting). I'd prefer someone else handles this since I have editing interactions with Serten on other pages. Zerotalk 05:47, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I did my own study of the edit history (without relying on the four diffs offered by the submitter) and saw four removals of the German-language source on 4 October, starting with this removal. User:Serten reverted three times. User:Christophe Krief has now returned to editing but did not respond to my advice that he come to the noticeboard and promise to stop warring. Serten would be wise to wait for consensus before making any more controversial edits. If Christophe still won't respond here a block seems appropriate. Unless admins do something it seems that a fight on this article will continue. EdJohnston (talk) 16:35, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Thnx for the effort. Its my first turn here, so sorry if I misunderstood the procedure. With regard to the article, I provided some English sources beyound the University of Cologne study. User:Christophe Krief seems, in my eyes, to stay in a soapboxing mode, compare quote 'If too many cows are killed to make the beef that you eat, then there will be not enough milk for your breakfast and it could lead to extinction.' I think that needs to be adressed, as any fruitful cooperation better not involves my breakfast. Serten (talk) 17:04, 5 October 2014 (UTC) I assume that he could use a short break, but its more important to remind him that a) WP is not a Webforum and b) valid sources may have different origins. In the case of Talk:After_Saturday_Comes_Sunday, where Zero and I are involved an Arab 19th century study helped to improve an article lede. Serten (talk) 20:42, 5 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Hi there. First I must say that I have worked on this article for a while with other editors who already had problems with Serten regarding this article. Please note that Serten forced the article towards a very different definition of "Renewable Resource" without following any consensus and by removing important informations. Note that I am a long time editor and that I am not arguing for the sake of it. I understand that Serten has a point of view on the subject and I accept it. However, his position seems to be the only one that he accepts and understands. Note that I have not removed any of his insertion except for the lead reference which is fully in German. A reference that many of us cannot understand. This is the English version of Wikipedia and there is no need for a reference in German, especially in the lead. Researches should have been official translated prior to be used, unless the subject relates to a foreign matter.


 * I am trying to improve articles, I respect others' point of view when they are pertinent. I did not consider my action as an edit war. I was only working on the article. I was reinserting information with references that Serten had deliberately removed after imposing his point of view to other editors. I could bring some of these editors to this page if necessary, but I would prefer sparing their time for more important matters. There are 2 conflicts with Serten in relation to this article - 1) Serten is hijacking the article towards Non-Food Renewable Resources, I have worked on the article to provide a full definition of Renewable resources. - 2) Serten is using the article to promote a German point of view. I have no problem with that, but the use of a reference in German in the lead is misplaced. Even if Serten was right when he states that the German are leading in this field, many Americans, English, or translated foreign researches will be more appropriate in the English version of this article.


 * I may have broken a protocol on Wikipedia, and if so, I apologise. If I did, it was only for the sake of improving the article. To solve the present issue, I think that administrators should tell us if it is appropriate to have the first reference of the article, or a reference from the lead in German language which is understood only by a minority of English speakers, when the article has no particular relation with Germany or any German subject, while many references exist in English. Thanks in advance for your assistance. --Christophe Krief (talk) 22:03, 5 October 2014 (UTC)


 * We have a separate entry on Energy transition in Germany, the largest project of its kind world wide, in so far I doubt German and (often German driven) European current research should be left out. I m not hijacking the article towards Non-Food Renewable Resources, whoever wants to preach about Food can do that in the appropriate talk pages. I am confining this one article based on current studies, so my - of cause hvalbiff only - breakfast might be excluded. vennelig hilsen Serten (talk) 22:23, 5 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Serten, I have fully revised the article because it became incoherent due to your position which focuses on non-food renewable resources. The following insertion of yours that I preserved in the article: "Besides fresh meat and milk, which is as a food item not topic of the article" (see "historical role) is now included in a "non-food" sub-section. Please act and speak in good faith; you have hijacked the article. If you have something to say about the German position on this subject, and if it is really relevant (which I doubt), so create a sub-section about the German point of view which, if I believe what you are telling us, is so advanced compared to the rest of the world. I have lost enough time on this matter. I had a similar problem with the article on "Deconstruction" before... Unfortunately some articles cannot be saved. I leave it up to the administrators to decide about this one. --Christophe Krief (talk) 00:26, 6 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Result: Both editors warned. If either party reverts again without first getting a consensus on the talk page they may be blocked. User:Christophe Krief is advised to get an opinion at WP:Reliable sources/Noticeboard if he truly thinks a German-language source can't be used; he is unlikely to find any support there.

Despite explanations in edit summaries, on the user's talk page, and on the article talk page, the user is not understanding core Wikipedia policies of WP:NOR and WP:V (i.e. there are several cited sources saying certain bands belong on this list, but the user repeatedly removes them based on his/her view that sources don't matter if the bands simply don't belong. I have no stake in whether or not these bands are included, but this approach is purely disruptive. &mdash; <span style="font-family:monospace, monospace;"> Rhododendrites <sup style="font-size:80%;">talk  \\ 00:20, 6 October 2014 (UTC)


 * I have been removing bands that have failed to be proven to play Viking Metal and contradict the sourced definition of Viking Metal (Black Metal modeled after Bathory with influence from Nordic Folk music). I am trying to prevent the page being vandalized.


 * The 'sources' for Amon Amarth and Unleashed do not prove they play Viking Metal. Look over them. These bands are lazily labelled viking metal regarding lyrical content, where as Viking Metal is a musical genre, and musical genres are not defined by lyrical themes, if AA and Unleashed are to be accepted, a source must be provided that AA and Unleashed's musical style contains that of black metal and nordic folk influence, NOT because they have Viking lyrics. If these bands lyrics were not about Vikings, you would be laughed at if you called them 'viking metal'. Amon Amarth and Unleashed remain Melodic/Death Metal.


 * A 'source' described Falconer's 'Viking Metal origins', but what wasnt explained is that these origins were actually in a separate band, Mithotyn, This 'source' then stated that Falconer were returning to their origins as Viking Metal.... simply because the lyrics were in Swedish... I am sorry, but changing the language does NOT change the genre. This is like me calling Galneryus 'ninja metal' because their lyrics are in Japanese. Absolutely ridiculous. Falconer remain Folk/Power Metal.


 * Why the addition of Mortiis continues to plague this page is absolutely beyond ridiculous. Havard Ellefson formed an INDUSTRIAL ROCK/AMBIENT band Mortiis after he grew sick of playing Metal in Emperor. Yes, Mortiis arent even Metal, for a band to be Viking Metal, they must first at least be Metal, let alone Black Metal. This 'source' that somehow finds a way to sneak in the black metal/nordic folk tag into a band that possesses ZERO of these elements is ridiculous, and should not be considered a reliable source. After a decent search, i have found zero other sources that consider Mortiis 'viking metal'. I understand the 'no original research' policy, but surely this does not mean you are not allowed to use basic logic. No one with an understanding of both Viking Metal or Mortiis would label them 'viking metal'. It is simply ignorance.


 * The Viking Metal band page is an absolute mess, an embarrassment to Wikipedia's attempt at accuracy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.57.186.150 (talk) 04:41, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment - Beware of flying sticks comes to mind. Just check page history. -  Cwobeel   (talk)  22:43, 5 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Response:What User:Winkelvi hasn't mentioned is that he is simply engaged in revenge-harassment regarding the Talk:Chelsea Clinton and Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard/Archive208 discussions. Nor does he mention that he liked to drop unnecessary but purposely hostile warning tags on my user page related to those discussions.  Nor does he mention that when told to leave my talk page along, he rudely announced he planned to keep up his harassment tagging, and when some anon proved him a hypocrite complete with diff on his talk page, he reverted the anon and then reported the anon for vandalism/harassment, going so far as to cite a 2-year old edit by the anon as grounds for a possible checkuser.
 * Nor does User:Winkelvi understand what a "reversion" is. Adding content, in this case, 3 RS references, is not a reversion.  Nor is he aware of policy.  There is no requirement to footnote obsessively, or even footnote: WP:FNNR.  And he then comes rushing here to report me within minutes for not taking part in the discussion that very second.
 * It's pretty much bad faith harassment on his part. Choor monster (talk) 22:52, 5 October 2014 (UTC)


 * I can't mention something that isn't happening based on an accusation that is untrue. The accusations by Choor monster in his statements above don't even deserve to be addressed as they are rife with misrepresentation and untruth.  It appears to me, that rather than address his own edit warring behavior and refusal to discuss the matter on the article's talk page, he is trying to get this report dismissed by making something "stick" to me.  I will say in regard to his accusation that this report is based on disagreements we've had in the past: my edits and improvements to the Santmyer article have nothing to do with the Clinton article or Choor monster.  There is absolutely no harassment occurring.  If he truly believes what he is accusing me of to be accurate, he needs to either produce diffs as proof his non-AGF claims or stikeout his dishonest mis-characterizations and exaggerations.
 * The article in question has no inline citations to support claims made at the article, and there should be at least some. There was more than one instance of peacocking and claims made with no cites to support those claims.  These edits stood for quite some time before I worked on the article today.  For the betterment of the article, inline citations need to be placed within the article to improve the article's verifiability and standing as a biography.  As it was prior to my edits, the article was basically a puff-piece full of POV and unverified claims.  Choor monster's reverts and edit warring have now taken it (in part) back to that status. -- <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #0099FF, -4px -4px 15px #99FF00;">WV ● <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;">✉ ✓  22:59, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I will not bother with the liar-liar-pants-on-fire comments of Winkelvi. They are childish nonsense.  However, his characterization of the Helen Hooven Santmyer article at the time he found it is highly, grossly inaccurate.  It was a puff-piece before I started editing it, and I've been reducing it, slowly, while added new, more significant material.  His statement there were no inline citations is just a bald-faced lie, there were about 6 or 7.  Winkelvi is also ignorant of actual policy and guidelines: the citations were all there to support the claims, but not every phrase and sentence was tagged.
 * And I repeat, I do not believe for a moment Winkelvi was editing the article in order to improve it, but was looking for an edit-war and an excuse to revenge-harass. The discussion here on this noticeboard is simply a pointless waste of time, and a ridiculous bit of hypocrisy .  As I mentioned, he had (earlier that day or the previous day) abused the vandalism noticeboard, reporting an anon for posting snark on his talk page and calling for a checkuser.  This seems no different. Choor monster (talk) 18:30, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment: I see revert-warring by both parties here, and the logical outcome would be to block both editors. I urge both of them to respond to the complaint and promise not to revert again until consensus is found. Reverting article-improvement tags such as refimprove and original research is quite conspicuous and is likely to receive unfavorable attention from admins. A tag is not an emergency that justifies removing it before discussion can be held. EdJohnston (talk) 18:58, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I do not understand. A tag says please add references, and I have added 6 of them.  The tag has served its purpose.  What discussion is needed? Choor monster (talk) 19:06, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Tags need consensus. It's not in your sole discretion whether the article is adequately referenced. If the matter is controversial you should persuade others to agree with you that the referencing has been fixed. EdJohnston (talk) 19:15, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
 * But it is worth mentioning that some editors use these tags to perpetuate disputes and use them as badges of shame in articles. All articles can be improved. If there are a few statements that require sources, editors should use the inline cn template instead. -   Cwobeel   (talk)  19:21, 6 October 2014 (UTC)


 * To Ed: I still do not understand. There was no consensus to put in the tag in the first place, either.  Are tags exempt from WP: BRD, or at least its spirit?  And how can I achieve consensus regarding references with a person who claims that were no inline citations whatsoever, when there were NINE?  (The first two cites also cover most of the points in the main section, and both are linked and easily accessible.)  Cwobeel has instead made the objective claim that the main section has no in-line citations, and it would be improved by putting them there. Choor monster (talk) 20:06, 6 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Comment:Sorry, didn't see the Admin request/instructions prior to making reverts at the article today (the reverts were reasonable, and in no way edit warring behavior, just keeping the article on track and in accordance with the MOS). Glad to see the references needed tag in the Body of the article.  I believe it was needed. -- <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #0099FF, -4px -4px 15px #99FF00;">WV ● <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;">✉ ✓  20:59, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

Comments:

Pound Puppies, the 2010 cartoon, ended in 2013. This is a fact. The show is no longer airing any episodes on the Hub, or if that isn't true, then production definitely ended on it more than a year ago. This one user, Anonymous IP 67.181.254.125, started this revert war in May 2014, but I seem to remember identical edits coming in from other IPs before then. The disagreement about the show ending started back in December 2013. There was one other revert of this edit, before I came in with two tweets from a writer on the show and one of the directors. These tweets confirmed that no new episodes were planned to be made at the time. Seeing that no episodes have yet been made since then, it is logical to conclude the show has ended all production. I am asking for a mod or an administrator to either semi-protect the Pound Puppies (2010 TV series) page, or block this person's IP from editing it. Thank you. Dogman15 ( talk ) 05:56, 6 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Question about verifiability: Dogman15, you've reverted to say that November 16, 2013 was the last broadcast episode. Have you got a WP:Reliable source to that effect? Putting your own inferences into the article is not allowed under our WP:Original research policy. EdJohnston (talk) 19:44, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
 * First of all, are you implying that 72.129.141.161 is my IP address? Because it's not. I don't live in Wisconsin. Secondly, what kind of proof do you want? Dan Vs. is another show on The Hub that has most certainly ended its run. Is there a difference between "last brand new episode being aired" and "last episode aired on the channel ever"? If so, this was never clearly stated anywhere. And who does this Anonymous IP think he is? Do I have to contact The Hub directly through customer service to get an answer?

The anon IP (who has clearly also edited earlier under other IPs) is insistent on adding a particular perspective on the article topic to the lede, sourced only to what appears to be a personal website. I have tried to explain policy, and have explained that edit-warring is unacceptable, but the IP seems more concerned with bringing "confidence in the idea of the meaningfulness of existence brought about by the goodness of God" to readers than with conforming to policy, and is evidently going to edit-war until blocked.

Comments: Piotrniz has edit warred in an extremely aggressive and persistent manner, and presently appears to have absolutely no interest in discussing the content he added to the Nietzsche article with other users. He has reverted both myself and Goethean multiple times, sometimes editing while logged out or from multiple IP addresses. Note that while the diffs I provided above link to edits made from IP addresses, they are clearly all made by this user. Piotrniz has tried to justify his behavior by repeatedly referring to the essay WP:ONLYREVERT, as though it overruled policies against edit warring and original research.

ImprovingWiki (talk) 23:35, 1 October 2014 (UTC)


 * The man has reverted edits which were actual improvements to the article, contrary to WP:ONLYREVERT. They keep doing total reverts which are not accepted by the editor and other people, instead of marking things they deny or doubt with the 'fact' template. According to WP:ONLYREVERT and the general rule of freedom of improvement and encouraging to edit, it is ImprovingWiki and his friend Goethian who are offending. 46.77.124.247 (talk) 09:48, 2 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Apparently, there is disagreement over what constitutes an improvement to the article. You decided that your edits were improvements, and that therefore your views must prevail, no matter how many other editors disagreed with you. That is not how things are supposed to work here. It is really too bad if you don't like it. That essay which you keep citing, over and over, does not override actual policies such as WP:NOR. Goethean certainly seemed to think the material you added was original research. Note that although the IP above - who seems to be Piotrniz - says that my edits were not accepted by "other people", no one but Piotrniz ever restored the material he added to the article.

 * You filed an edit-warring report on October 1 but the incident occurred on September 20-21. This likely closed without action because the info was stale. After all, what good does it do to block now? There isn't a current edit war, right? I have semi-protected the article for one month and added PC1 indefinitely to curtail the obvious IP socking. Had you filed this report just after it happened, you would have likely gotten the results you were looking for.
 * I wouldn't be so sure that there is no edit war right now. Edit wars can be either fast or slow - sometimes users will revert each other only once per week or per month, for example. If it drags on for long enough, it's still an edit war, even though there is no day-to-day reverting. You're right of course that I should have moved more quickly. Thank you for at least protecting the article. ImprovingWiki (talk) 01:13, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
 * A collection of Warsaw-based IPs seem to be editing along with User:Piotrniz to force certain material to stay in the article. (, and ). Presumably there is one person using all these identities. The behavior is sufficiently blatant to justify sock enforcement. If User:Berean Hunter is leaving this open for closure by other admins, I suggest a one-month block for User:Piotrniz for abusing multiple accounts. EdJohnston (talk) 01:28, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Interesting. A block for actually what? For adding unwanted content (who knows why unwanted, perhaps money) or for using multiple accounts? I do not use multiple accounts. Some IPs you pointed were likely mine but perhaps not all in the article history. Besides, it is the ISP who keeps switching IPs of users (so called dynamic IP assignment). Perhaps you really mean another guilt(?). Piotrniz (talk) 01:36, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
