On September 2nd, Kadribistrica added ethnic percentages to the infobox. I removed these, explaining my reasoning in the talkpage (see above). Kosovo is under a 1RR restriction. Kadribistrica has since then performed 3 reverts in the last 24 hours and shows no sign of stopping. Not only that, but users are required to discuss each and every revert on the talkpage, which he has only done once. He appears unwilling or unable to abide by the article's restrictions. A block is necessary to prevent further edit-warring, as is a warning of ARBMAC sanctions. Athenean (talk) 17:14, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

I take the time to update the Filmography of the actress, but obviously Nyanchoka that gives equal, his only reason for reverting is "that is updating the article Leticia Calderón". And I am in fact not preventing that the make their contributions, but because it does not want to accept my contribution?. I have the article Leticia Calderón a year on my watchlist, and I know who is the actress. But I do not understand what happens with Nyanchoka. I leave you a message about this, but the user does not want to understand.  Philip J Fry  • ( talk ) 22:13, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The U|Philip,J Fry is actually lying about having the page Leticia Calderón on his watchlist.The article was very outdated and it almost took me a whole day constructing it ranging from grammar errors,cited the page had a templete of very few sources.What is actually frustrating me is that this user often makes changes on pages that he does not want anyone to edit.The edit war started early September 10 among other users U|Philip J Fry inclusive.So I decided to check my watchlist and found what was a page has become a battlefield.On the issue am accused of, I decided to distance myself  so that I can make improvements on pages that had minimal  attention.Now comes this U|Philip J Fry who thinks that is always correct.I asked the concerned administrator to also scrutinize User:Philip J Fry behavior on the Leticia Calderón's edit history and see the messages he was leaving me.U|Nyanchokanyanchy 23:35, 10 September 2015 (UTC)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nyanchoka (talk • contribs)
 * And how you can say that I'm lying?, place that article on my watchlist last year, since I saw this actress in the telenovela "En nombre del amor" last year. And regarding the war's editions, that is a user coming from days ago doing the same thing in other articles, although we are you warned that stop, not want to. And I have not really done anything wrong, simply update the filmography, since clearly missing projects by link and mention some episodes where came the actress. I do not see in that part that interrupted its other editions. Simply don't want to accept my edit, because I like to want to impose your point of view.--  Philip J Fry  • ( talk ) 00:08, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

Please also look at:

When I was getting the messages I did self-revert, look.

Now please take note of the following:
 * Revert, plain and simple, say no more, see summary
 * 2nd, wiping out stacks of cleanup edits and new information
 * 3rd, same as above - bogus claim of vandalism
 * BREACH.

He is accusing me of being a sockpuppet and I agree to an investigation to prove I am not. While nothing is being proven, he cannot say he is "reverting sock". Thomas W is in breach of policy, full stop. Chewers Meat (talk) 10:31, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * A: the first edit claimed to be a revert was me updating the article with the recently released latest census data, not a revert of anyone's edits...
 * B: see Sockpuppet investigations/Evlekis where the evidence has been presented.
 * C: as you can clearly see in the page history of Uttar Pradesh and Demographics of Uttar Pradesh I haven't reverted Chewers Meat because I suspect them of being a sock but because they have repeatedly replaced the latest official government data (from Census 2011) with older and/or unreliable sources, with bogus edit summaries such as "unsourced, unfounded", and continued doing so even after I told them why they should stop. Thomas.W talk 10:40, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

Both "first edits" involved removing information and are as such "reverts". Thomas W is an experienced enough editor and one who we see is heavily involved in "policy issues" so I beg of the admins please do not fall for his pretending to be "ignorant" and he is still at this point in time in a situation to be reverting himself on Demographics of Uttar Pradesh. This is not the page for me to be defending myself from claims of sockpuppetry. And his claim of the "right version" in his "C" explanation does not place him above policy of WP:3RR, he is in breach and he refuses to self-revert. full stop. Chewers Meat (talk) 10:49, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Updating articles with the latest census data as it is being released, as I did when I replaced the older data directly sourced to or derived from Census 2001 with data sourced to the official Census 2011 web site, is normal article maintenance, not edit-warring. But repeatedly removing the updated information, as you did, is. Thomas.W talk 10:54, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Chewers Meat indefinitely as sock.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:00, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: (already removed from talk page by Graemp)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:

Comments:

Graemp is simply trying to frustrate routine NFCC enforcement. The article mentions the person depicted in the image only in passing; the main point it illustrates, that Clement Davies was the leader of the Liberal Party in this election, is so plainly conveyed by text alone that it is hard to see how a reasonable editor could argue otherwise. I've cleaned up scores of infoboxes with similar NFCC failures, and none have proved controversial before )despite the occasional recalcitrant editor who's ended up blocked). Graemp is taking the position that a nonfree image can be used to identify a deceased person in any article which mentions that person, which is hopelessly inconsistent with governing NFC policy. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 18:13, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
 * User:Hullaballoo Wolfowitz overlooked referencing the discussion that I initiated on his talkpage here, which is is easier to follow https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Hullaballoo_Wolfowitz#File:Clement_Davies_c1955.jpg
 * The infobox is a standard infobox that is designed to host the pictures of contextually significant people to the article. I did not put the infobox in this article, merely placed the image into the available space. I am not arguing anything about the use of non free images, merely arguing that this image is being used validly. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz has been persistently deleting this image on one occasion because there was no fair use rationale when in fact there was one. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz was only moved to go to the article talkpage after I had opened a full discusion on his talkpage. Graemp (talk) 18:42, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Graemp is not telling the truth here, and doing so so crudely and blatantly that their good faith must be questioned. I posted to the article talk page at 17:03 . I posted to Graemp's talk page at 17:09 . Rather than responding to my posts directly, Graemp posted to my talk page several minutes later, at 17:14 . Even if, in Graempworld, 17:03 comes "after" 17:14, that's not the world reasonable editors live in. Trying to muddle the watersw like this in order to prevent NFCC violations from being removed it itself disruptive behavior. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 20:44, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

So what are you going to do now? Please keep in mind that technically speaking, we typically err on the side of caution with it comes to copyright issues. Do you intend to continue edit warring? Are you both aware we have a noticeboard dedicated to issues like this, as well as an actual process for deleting files where people can give input? -- slakr \ talk / 10:11, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Of course I'm aware. I've also been doing NFCC enforcement for years, and have cleaned up scores if not hundreds of similar violations. I don't believe a single one has proved controversial before. For good reason, as this is an open-and-shut matter. There's no reason to take settled matter to an overcrowded, backlogged noticeboard. Graemp hasn't provided any policy-based justification for including the nonfree image -- the existence of an infobox doesn't itself justify placing a nonfree image in it; that argument is so preposterous that I've never seen it advanced before. Good faith disputes are one thing, but here we simply have an editor trying to frustrate NFCC enforcement by repreated and tendentious obstructionism.

The user has then gone on to show their low level of maturity by attempting to display the same edit-warring on my own talk page after I've reverted to STATUSQUO, and then once I've removed it, has gone on to continuously revert it to display once more. The user has been reverted on the main article by other users previously, though this didn't stop them at all. Alex &#124; The &#124; Whovian 02:31, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * The article in question, Mr. Robot (TV series), is a derivative work based on David Fincher's 1999 film Fight Club. This fact has been widely commented on by critics at every level, from bloggers and message board users, to mainstream critics at major media outlets like Vanity Fair. It has become such a prevalent mode of commenting on the show, that it warranted its own section in the article. I created a succinct, well-sourced section which documented the parallels between the two artworks. Most importantly, I provided a substantial quote from the creator of the series explaining that he deliberately modeled the show on Fight Club, and he is proud of that fact.


 * If Fincher's movie were merely a model for the show, it might merit a mention in a sentence or two. However, comparing the show to Fight Club has become a standard way for critics to engage with the show. Therefore, a somewhat broader explanation was warranted.


 * After the first deletion of this section, which made spurious claims of original research and improper synthesis. I reverted to the original version and responded to the charges on the Talk page. I immediately asked other editors for a consensus on the matter. Alex The Whovian and another editor ignored this plea for consensus, and kept deleting the section with objections that moved beyond the original ones, which had been disproven, to the tautological 3x revision rule. As I undid their edits, I realized that I was breaking a rather big rule around Wikipedia, and I apologize for that. However, my rationale was to call their attention to the discussion on the Talk page and to engage them in a search for consensus. Their unwillingness to reach consensus on this point is actually the bigger no-no at Wikipedia, as far as I understand the guidelines.


 * My edits have been done in good faith. I don't think the same can be said for theirs. Both of their talk pages have sections on Mr. Robot with users complaining about their heavy-handed tactics on the page. See: User_talk:Drmargi/Archive_5 and User_talk:AlexTheWhovian. Moreover, on the substance of the matter, no one can claim that the section that I created was poorly sourced, represented original research, or did not belong in an article about a work that explicitly derives from a previous work. This is standard encyclopedic material that should be included in the article. Trumpetrep (talk) 02:46, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * The editor has been reverted by three editors, and is unwilling to stop reverting. He does not see the difference between his long-winded, synthetic analysis of the one influence on an element of the show being drawn from a film and the discussion of a film adapting a piece of classic literature.  Moreover, the piece has a strong WP:POV slant.  It's too long, too biased, and makes too much of the discussion of an influence, one of many, the producer has acknowledged.  It's content for the Mr. Robot wiki, maybe, but not here.  --Drmargi (talk) 02:50, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * The assertion of a strong POV is incorrect on the face of the original language of the section, which is archived on the article's talk page. Drmargi demonstrably misread the section, attributing words to me that were direct quotes from the creator of the show. It seems that both Drmargi and AlextheWhovian have been overly hasty in their efforts to purge this page of any material related to its primary source material.Trumpetrep (talk) 03:31, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Trumpetrep and Drmargi 48 hours each.--Bbb23 (talk) 04:38, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * The blocking of Drmargi is exceptionally unfair on him. He was merely following the rules, guidelines and policies for consensus and material on articles. If the block is required, there is certainly no need to make it the same length of time as the original troublesome editor. Alex &#124; The &#124; Whovian  04:43, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * The blocking of Drmargi was exceptionally in line with WP:3RR, the exemptions to which are objective and explicit. S warm   ♠  05:02, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment I'm wondering if a topic ban may be in order. User:Burst of unj is a single-purpose editor; last time I checked he'd made no edits outside of this topic. He's highly combative and borders on harassing editors who disagree with him. Now that the AFD has been closed, appropriately as keep, User:Burst of unj will either disappear or will continue to push his POV in the article.

 * This is a poorly argued and then messed up request. I find this unfortunate as the subject of the complaint has edit-warred on so many articles, so many times, and needs to be reined it. I say this because I believe he can be a valuable editor. But, he doesn’t appear to want to collaborate in any sense of the word. In one case, he reverted seven times all attempts to fix an WP:ELBURDEN violation during an RfC, including reverts of at least one (I think two) admins, all the while claiming that all the other editors were edit-warring; but somehow he wasn’t. That’s but one example. Days ago, he reverted all my attempts to remove an unsourced blatant falsehood, again claiming I’m edit-warring; but he isn’t, and threatening me. All the while refusing to discuss. Minor case – but one of so many and a pattern of declaring ownership of articles. You won’t find all the edit-warring warnings on his Talk Page, because he removes them claiming they are vandalism and, at times, threatening the editors that post them. Indeed, he deleted the notification of this complaint. I know that I have not framed this statement with refs, et.al. But, I, and other editors, have lives, and simply do not have the time to deal with people like this.

 * It's unclear whether User:CFCF was properly notified of this report. (The 3RR alert was placed on his talk before anything was added to AN3). I've studied the edit history of some of these articles. I didn't see any 3RR violations but there have been a series of borderline cases. There is a pattern of tenacious reverting that causes concern. I've left a more explicit notice on CFCF's talk page and hope that he will respond. EdJohnston (talk) 04:10, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

Several editors have expressed concern at editing patterns at, , , – with seemingly no improvement. He's been asked to stop adding: images with irrelevant captions, poor sources and drive-by tags (often mcn after each sentence with one edit/tag) by a number of editors with no change. I reverted the additions on account they were poor quality and used both old and primary sources as well as inserting falsehoods or misinterpretations of source. Reverts on the Pirate bay article were made over a period of several months–see the RfC on that talk page. -- CFCF  🍌 (email) 11:03, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

EdJohnston...the refs (answered below) really are not reverts, one was taken to Doc James by me, the other, eventually agreed, the other was about "edit count",,,and the other is CFCF again.

In one case, he reverted seven times all attempts to fix an WP:ELBURDEN violation during an RfC, including reverts of at least one (I think two) admins, all the while claiming that all the other editors were edit-warring; but somehow he wasn’t. That’s but one example. Days ago, he reverted all my attempts to remove an unsourced blatant falsehood, again claiming I’m edit-warring; but he isn’t, and threatening me. All the while refusing to discuss. Minor case – but one of so many and a pattern

 * Result: The parties who've been reverting at Hypocalcaemia and Fat embolism are warned not to continue without a talk page consensus. When people fight over medical content, you have to assume that at least the issues are important. But The Pirate Bay and Paul Signac are not medical, and CFCF has engaged in revert wars there. I'm having trouble seeing the need for User:CFCF to make nine reverts at Paul Signac between August 4 and September 2. If you think someone is inappropriately making changes while an RfC is running, report it to admins immediately. A relentless pattern of reverting over many weeks just makes you look stubborn.

 * I am attempting to boldly overhaul the page, and despite template, I continue to be reverted.
 * If I was an established editor on wikipedia, this would never happen. But since my user name and talk page is new, I cannot edit this page without constant reversion.
 * The irony is this edit dispute is on the Article Rescue Squadron page, and this edit war behavior by editors is the reason why the Article Rescue Squadron exists in the first place. Headtransplant (talk) 02:27, 14 September 2015 (UTC)


 * It should be noted that the Headtransplant account's only other editing history consists of creating an unsourced stub article, reading in full "The Hypomanic Edge is a book by John D. Gartner.", and in adding a 'see also' Wikilink to the 'article'. This is clearly someone who doesn't understand how Wikipedia works, and shouldn't be messing around with Rescue Squadron instruction pages. AndyTheGrump (talk) 02:28, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

, WP:BOLD does not apply after editors have reverted your edits. We certainly encourage you to be bold in introducing changes to benefit the wiki, but when there's disagreement about whether they actually benefit the wiki, you need to follow the bold, revert, discuss cycle and talk out the problems with editors before continuing your changes. The fact that the page was "under construction" doesn't give you the right to unilaterally introduce changes to a wikiproject's main operating procedures. Consensus is needed for such large changes before you carry them out, but especially when someone opposes the change. Can you see where you went wrong here, and do you have a plan on how to act in this situation going forward? ~ RobTalk 03:38, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Rob: I see that you also supported my template for deletion.
 * Templates for discussion/Log/2015 September 14
 * Again, underneath the quoting of policy is extremely passive aggressive behavior.
 * You will aggressively support the deletion of a template that was barely made. There is policy about this too.  You all never gave me a chance to create what I wanted to create.
 * Of course, Rob, you will call my behavior wrong, but will you ignore the 3RR violations of the editor below?
 * WP:BOLD applies. I attempted to tell this to  User:AndyTheGrump and he was adment about not even giving me an hour of time to edit the article.
 * I can quote policy too, What about WP:BITE, WP:NEWBIE or WP:CIVIL?
 * And of course, you ignore template:underconstruction.
 * I am not going to get in a protracted policy argument with you.
 * Your like an aggressive pastor, you know the Bible like the back of your hand, and you selectively call sinners to repentance with your amazing ability to quote scripture, but that doesn't make the pastor any less passive aggressive.

 * Also, I have had over 200,000 edits to wikis. Mostly to wikia.
 * I host my own 20 wikis.
 * What about Assume good faith? Again, you created this edit war.  You refuse to compromise, you call for my indefinite ban, you delete my comments on your talk page. Multiple violations of WP:CIVIL and Dispute resolution.  Headtransplant (talk) 04:02, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Ok. I will bite. Lets play the policy game:
 * Negotiation and Dispute resolution:
 * Talking to other parties is not a mere formality, but an integral part of writing the encyclopedia. Discussing heatedly or poorly – or not at all – will make other editors less sympathetic to your position, and prevent you from effectively using later stages in dispute resolution.
 * Andy violated Dispute resolution.
 * WP:stalking
 * By putting up my template for deletion, User:ToonLucas22 and Andy violated WP:stalking. Wikihounding is the singling out of one or more editors, and joining discussions on multiple pages or topics they may edit or multiple debates where they contribute, in order to repeatedly confront or inhibit their work. This is with an apparent aim of creating irritation, annoyance or distress to the other editor. Wikihounding usually involves following the target from place to place on Wikipedia.

 * For the context, see 'User:Headtransplant reported by User:ToonLucas22' above - we have a new account messing around with an instruction page - and if it isn't simple trolling, it is a competence issue.

SuperCarnivore591 (talk) 03:08, 14 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Like I said above, if this isn't trolling, it is a competence issue - Headtransplant repeatedly claims to be 'boldly' editing, but either hasn't read BOLD, revert, discuss cycle, has read it but doesn't understand it, or understands it, but refuses to comply with the instruction to discuss after being reverted.

[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Popular_Republican_Union_%282007%29&diff=679387582&oldid=prev My modification] was perfectly justified in the edit summary and goes against no dispute resolution, since the WP:AN/3 case mentioned only blocked the one infringing R3R and did not conclude as to which version is "WP:WRONG". Now [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Popular_Republican_Union_%282007%29&diff=680159002&oldid=prev the last modification by D0kkaebi], falsely stating in its edit summary that my modification had no justification except private attacks and that he is restoring the state of things to the previous resolution of an edit war, undoes my removal of POV in the article, so the question is: should I or somebody else undo it? Oliv0 (talk) 06:26, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Your diff mentions half a sentence and your comments on the talk page about personal attacks is 4 lines + 20 from your crew. You justified your revert on several topics and summarized by " addition of "gaullism", "centrist" and removal of section about Internet activism certainly goes against NPOV, article improved by undoing this". Just to discuss one claim, Centrism has been extensively discussed on the talk page here and the only undoubtedly neutral user participating in the page,   Ravenswing  , concluded that the proper translation for English native is "centrist". I did not agree neither as I preferred "syncretic" but since Ravenswing is neutral, I apply his proposal as a proper consensus. I do not understand why your opinion should prevail on previous discussions and consensus reached on the talk page.
 * By the way, on a side note to admin, User:Francis Le français did not wait the result of this new Edit Warring incident to revert the page to his own version. D0kkaebi (talk) 01:47, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
 * This is a copy of your answer at WP:AN/I, see [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=680188923&oldid=prev mine there]: your assertion is false, in the link you mention Ravenswing did not say that "centrist" is a good English word for what the micro-party calls "neither left nor right / above left and right" (that is, focusing on anti-europeanism and not on left-right divisions). Oliv0 (talk) 06:09, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
 * So you say Ravenswing did not say "centrist" is the proper word to describe UPR's political positioning? It does not look like you even checked the link. Rather than interpretation, I'll just quote his words "We need pay no attention to what a Frenchman would call "centrist" -- what matters is what your average English-speaker would think of as "centrist".". This is the best evidence that you just impose your POV without even checking prior discussions and even ignoring others' input. I did not agree with him, but I agree on the logic he brought for the sake of the consensus. This is his input. So who is not neutral here? D0kkaebi (talk) 08:30, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
 * This is also a copy of your answer at WP:AN/I (please stop, this is getting off topic), see mine there: here you are being non neutral, Ravenswing only said that the English word is not to be avoided because of the French meaning, which does not say it is the appropriate word in English. In fact, "centrist" and "gaullism" mentioned in my edit summary quoted above and probably even "syncretic" are all a POV attempt at a more positive vocabulary than the sources. Oliv0 (talk) 08:44, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
 * It is not off-topic here. Admin needs to understand why you keep reverting and make a war edit supporting the changes of Francis le Francais that had been banished a day for that. If Ravenswing did not think it was the appropriate word, he would not have made this change. It is him who made the change, then I tried to discuss this change as I did not agree that "centrism" would be the proper word. Since I failed to convince him, I accepted the term for the sake of the consensus instead of making an edit war imposing my point of view. You see the difference between me and you? You think you are right and that is not questionable. If someone neutral brings a change, I discuss it calmly. By the way, note that "syncretic" was not my idea neither but a contribution of someone else. I guess everything is said, admins have all info to judge the case. D0kkaebi (talk) 23:12, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
 * So far you did not mention Ravenswing wrote "centrism" in the article, the talk page is more important and does not conclude "centrism". Stick to the independent sources, they do not mention centrism for this party. And the "difference between me and you" is that I am neutral and you are the POV-pusher with a WP:COI as a well-known local official of the party who wants to control the article that you think your WP:OWN, while accusing everybody else to do so.

 * So you finally admit you were wrong to revert without discussion. Yes, I can not mention in the revert summary all the 20 reasons why Francis Le Francais revert is wrong. That is why I keep driving you to the talk page, that you refuse to do and stick to your revert. Refusing the discussion assuming that anyway you are right is a POV and has no justification for Edit warring. I think the case can be judged, everything is said. D0kkaebi (talk) 01:20, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

 * 4) WP:OR

 * 6) addition of bad sources (one doesn't speak of the subject)

 * 8) lie and POV about the source + false explanation cause no consensus on talk/discussion page = second lie

 * Hello, everything was already answered to Francis le Francais, but the answers are always considered weak and/or endless answered with same claim, if it does not valid his point of view. If an Admin needs me to answer point by point to his claim, I can do it upon request. Otherwise, you can just refer to the explanation on the Edit War case where he was blocked for a day.

Comments: user has an undated statement on his talk page, that he is "currently experiencing mental health issues". I found no evidence that this was put up "recently", so I feel this sends an odd message. he should not editwar when having mental health issues, or take off the sign, if he is okay. the page is under attack by several tendentious editors, so action is needed.

Response by Jerod
First, shows I have been trying to have any and all changes discussed before Wuerzele even came across the page. I asked at that any removal of cited material be discussed at the talk page. As per the warning, Wuerzele placed it nearly an hour after my last edit

For the discussion, I replied, and felt there was no need to continue arguing once I saw the emotions in play with Wuerzele and Seren. After Wuerzele was warned they made at least two reversions:  and. I've included a list of reversions below. I'm not the only editor that had to revert stuff Wuerzele did. While one of us should have reported them we kept reverting, WP:IGNOREing the 3RR in an attempt to keep the article neutral. Wuerzele did make some constructive edits too. Jerod Lycett (talk) 01:43, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

Comment by
This has been raised as an COI issue at WP:COIN. There appears to be a COI issue, a BLP issue, edit warring, personal attacks, a huge number of recent edits starting Sep. 13, 2015, and a surprising number of involved editors who haven't been editing much else recently. I don't think we can do much for this at WP:COIN, and there are too many editors involved for simple 3RR blocks to help much. This article is going to need some form of dispute resolution. I suggest mediation. John Nagle (talk) 07:08, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Wuerzele for 31 hours for violating WP:3RR. As far as I can tell, Wuerzele is the only editor among the many that are editing the article to do so. I've also reviewed the discussions at the talk page, and my sense is that Wuerzele's remarks are the least constructive to resolving the issues. Even with Wuerzele blocked, the article may need to be locked if disputes at the article continue without Wuerzele.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:37, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

 * The warring editor is MFIreland (see: Sockpuppet investigations/MFIreland/Archive). As evidenced by this quite obvious restoration of exactly the same copyvio content. This content was added by one of his confirmed socks 3 years ago and reverted/restored by the IP editor last week. This verbatim pattern of warring edits is not something one would expect from an unrelated anon. Ultimately should be dealt with under WP:LTA, but for now this IP should ideally be blocked. It's getting tedious. And while WP:3RRNO exemptions may apply (for restoring content removed/reverted by socks), until a block is applied this pattern of warring is likely to continue. (The same type of editwarring in the past has resulted in a volume of his other IPs being blocked . He'll probably pop-up again later - but with an LTA mandate, we'll just have to deal with that when it happens...). Guliolopez (talk) 14:34, 15 September 2015 (UTC)


 * His first revert of the infobox at Irish Volunteers actually led me to open a discussion, where there was a concerted effort to agree a format. But 109.148.57.243 just reverted again and again, ignoring an invitation to join the discussion. As a result the article needed to be semi-protected.

Both and myself have tried to explain to him that production codes basically mean nothing. What matters is how episodes are packaged, and some episodes of Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, Disney XD, and other channels are packaged as one episode that's double the length of a normal episode. For example, the finale of Degrassi season 14 was four production codes, but it was packaged as a two-hour movie (including commercials).

Josepth fails to listen and keeps using the same arguments, such as, "That's how other articles have them." Whether that's correct or not doesn't matter (because some episodes do air as an hour special and such, but are actually two separate episodes). How things are done on other articles shouldn't take precedence over other articles, especially if those other articles are incorrect.

On top of that, Josepth keeps reverting the article to his preferred version without waiting for a consensus to be reached and is being extremely hostile toward those who disagree with him. Amaury (talk) 15:51, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:

Comments:

The editor has been attempting in each diff, to insert their own original research that the chemical sulfoxalfor is in a different class of insecticides called neonicotinoids instead of what scientific sources currently describe it as (sulfoximine) and later using newspapers not reliable for scientific claims to do so. Additionally, they have been inserting completely unsourced content claiming, "Dow had been attempting to evade classifying the chemical as a neonicotinoid since neonicotinoids are harmful to bees." while also adding while commenting that future approvals, "are expected to be quashed in the near future." completely unsourced and highly editorialized POV. They have also moved over to Sulfilimine doing much of the same.

As of this time, Abuductive has not even attempted to use the article talk page, even after being asked in edit summaries and the talk page itself rather than edit war the content back in (I've run myself up to 3RR trying to get them there):
 * "(Undo editorializing language and misstatement that these are neonicotinoids per source. These are different a different class.)"
 * "(Undid revision 680478982 by Abductive (talk) still incorrect according to source. Please discuss on talk page per WP:BRD if that isn't clear.)"
 * "(Remove WP:OR (please read source and again discuss per WP:BRD instead of edit warring), Also removed editorializing again. Consensus is needed through discussion at this point for these removed edits."

I'm asking for a short block at this point as the editor seems to be coming in with an extremely strong point of view and is attempting to edit war their unsourced views in across articles. In addition to not using the talk page, they have resorted to personal attacks and WP:ASPERSIONS calling me a corporate shill on their talk page. Regardless, bringing the pages back to their last stable version would be preferable, especially if page protection is done on either page., This currently is not in the scope of the current GMO arbcom case since we're only dealing with an insecticide here. I can't work with the behavior issues, but the sourcing issues could have been handled if they used the talk page rather than continue to edit war. It looks like there are more behavior issues associated with edit warring with this editor though as opposed to a regular content dispute, so I'm looking for some help here. Kingofaces43 (talk) 13:32, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * This chumly knows full well that I have provided sources. The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit made a legal finding that the pesticide is in fact a neonicotinoid. This I have backed up with sources. I strongly suspect that User:Kingofaces43 is editing for Dow Chemical Company. Of course, I can't prove it, but I note that User:Kingofaces43 is at arbcom for similar problems. Abductive  (reasoning) 16:30, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Comments like the above are why I'm go so far to look for a block in clear violation of WP:ASPERSIONS while using it as a justification for edit warring. While it's true we're definitely trying to weed out some of this behavior at ArbCom in GMOs, we definitely don't allow that in other topics either. The source currently used says nothing of this specific claim for content made here (not to mention not being reliable for scientific claims and in clear opposition to previously cited sources). The problematic behavior related to edit warring should be clear in the diffs though as this editor is personalizing content and edit warring it in. Kingofaces43 (talk) 16:41, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * All the wikilawyering in the world isn't going to stop the articles from reflecting the court's finding. Abductive  (reasoning) 19:13, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * You're here because you've demonstrated clear edit warring behavior and refusing to use the talk page to resolve any content issues, but on top of that you're making up content that isn't in the sources you are using against WP:VERIFY in additional to violating conduct policy regarding other editors. I'm normally one to just opt for page protection and move on to discussion, but the lack of acknowledgement of the various problem behaviors by Abductive seems to indicate something else is needed to prevent this in the future. Kingofaces43 (talk) 23:05, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * this dispute can probably be resolved quickly if only you pursue dispute resolution rather than edit war over this.  S warm   ♠  05:09, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Swarm, could you clarify a bit more on your above comment? I'm seeing four distinct times Abductive tried to insert the content within about a 6 hour period, not to mention completely avoiding the talk page when asked to go there multiple times even if one is going to ignore the other behavior issues such as personal attacks associated with the edit warring. That's only on one page, and they went over to another to insert similar content after they got the edit war warning. Even if WP:3RR isn't broken, it also clearly states that it's possible to edit war without breaking it, and we have a pretty blatant case of that here no matter how you cut it. This is serious edit warring behavior that I'm concerned might be emboldened if not addressed directly, and that's all I'm really asking at this point even though I've seen people blocked for less than this here in the past. Kingofaces43 (talk) 22:43, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Because I keep improving the articles and adding sources, which you can't see. Abductive  (reasoning) 04:49, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Still no attempt by Abductive to use the talk page at this time to discuss the sourcing problems after two more reverts. This is starting to get really sloppy with their attempts to only communicate through edit summary, so I really need to ask an admin to step in at this point. I've more than done my part to get things rolling on the talk page to hammer out some finer details, yet we're seeing a very one-sided problem with respect to edit warring here from Abductive. Kingofaces43 (talk) 05:35, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Looks like they've bumped up to 3RR again. . Could someone at least just return the article to the status quo version before this all started and set up page protection for awhile to at least close this case here for awhile? Kingofaces43 (talk) 15:14, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

Violation of 3RR (Result: )
3RR has been breeched by Abductive (in about 4 hours), so can we please either get a block or a return to the status quo version with page protection to stop this constant disruption?

My original edit that was reverted each time:


 * 1)  23:51, September 13, 2015
 * 2)  00:28, September 14, 2015
 * 3)  01:12, September 14, 2015
 * 4)  02:07, September 14, 2015

Thanks to Ebyabe for attempting to bring this back to the status quo before being reverted by Abductive. I'm not going to be able to do it, so we need someone to get it across to Abductive that this is extremely inappropriate edit warring. Others have referred to these actions as vandal-like contributions. Kingofaces43 (talk) 13:32, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I change my contributions each time to add more sources and clarifications. Meanwhile, as can be seen on the talk page, User:Kingofaces43 insists that the NYT is a bad source, and that an industry group sponsored by Dow Chemical Company is somehow independent. Abductive  (reasoning) 16:39, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * As has been shown to you many times WP:BRD is not WP:NBRD. It's possible to gain consensus on certain areas, but one needs to work on that at the talk page first before re-adding content after it's clear the initial edit isn't sticking. That's why you are currently sitting at four reverts today. It's extremely clear this user is completely ignoring WP:3RR looking at all the edits they've continued to make after their fourth revert rather than self-revert. It does appear to be a method of gaming WP:3RR by inserting all these edits at this time. I'm not going to get drug into the behavior side of things any further though, so I'll let others here address your behavior at this point. Kingofaces43 (talk) 18:11, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Adding sources that back up my position isn't reverting, it's building the encyclopedia. Abductive  (reasoning) 22:57, 14 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Looking at the above comments, this user is intentionally ignoring 3RR after being warned by EdJohnston they can face a block if they don't self-revert. Instead, they went on and kept adding more content, and used this chance to readd similar content in other areas they previously wanted in. I've already asked Abductive five different times to stop edit warring and reach consensus on the talk page first, but they keep reverting. This tactic of running other editors up to 3RR and continuing the make edits after reaching four reverts is highly disruptive and supposed to be prevented by WP:3RR.


 * Can someone please lock the page down and return it to the status quo version at least? It seems this edit warring behavior is systemic looking at their block log, so could someone straighten out their behavior issue here with a straightforward warning? They just don't seem to get the issue with edit warring here and how it's derailing attempt to work in nuanced content. I'm not going to push for a block, but this amount of edit warring could have easily resulted in one a long time ago already. Kingofaces43 (talk) 16:02, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

As you'll note above, I included actual discussion with each edit, but just to be sure, I add the following on the talk page:

As you can see, the version reverted to had two very different assessments, one a mention in an introductory level diet text, and one an actual study. The study was largely positive on serious health gains, while the text emphasized...farting. Fails NPOV just on the face of it. When you add in the real question of equivocation -not all sources use "fad diet" to u|Alexbrn's preferred meaning of "fad diet"- it really is up to him to justify this reversion, not just assert the old version was good.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:

Comments:

I anticipate that User:Beyond My Ken will try to excuse their behavior by invoking WP:BLP policy and argue that the 3RR restriction does not apply to them. This is not the case. The BLP exemption is for cases where the possibility of BLP violation is fairly unambiguous. Here half a dozen reliable sources, including books by scholars, have been provided to support the text under dispute. Beyond My Ken is just choosing to ignore them. Likewise, in the talk page discussion they stated that they will no longer discuss the matter but just revert others. This is unacceptable and BMK should know better.

Since the article has been protected, at this time a block is not necessary. Beyond My Ken does need to be warned however to ensure that this behavior does not resume once protection expires.  Volunteer Marek  00:30, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

I should note that the 3RR page is pretty explicit about this: " What counts as exempt under BLP can be controversial. Consider reporting to the BLP noticeboard instead of relying on this exemption.". BMK has not heeded this advice.  Volunteer Marek  00:33, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

Actually looking at the situation in more depth, there's a bit more disruptive here. Immediately after violating 3RR with their 4th revert, Beyond My Ken ran to the Requests for Protection page and asked to have his preferred version protected. This shows that the user is not interested in resolving the dispute but rather in "winning". It's also a pretty transparent attempt at WP:GAMEing the rules.  Volunteer Marek  00:40, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Reverting BLP violations is an absolute defense against edit warring. VM and another editor are attempting to add information connecting Vladimir Putin to a murder, because the murder occurred on Putin's birthday, and the murdered woman was a political opponent of Putin.  The evidence they present does not show any causal connection between them, it merely shows that some people suspect that there may be a connection, or that conspiracy theorist believe there is be a connection.  It is thus unsourced innuendo about a living person, and therefore completely disallowed by BLP policy.I have explained this numerous times to them on the article's talk page, until I got tired of repeating myself, but they seem not to understand the difference between sourcing the existence of the suspicions, which they have done more than adequately, and sourcing the actual connection between Putin and the murder.  Without a source for an actual connection, the material is in direct violation of BLP and may be removed from the article on sight by any editor -- indeed, it is the duty of a conscientious editor to do so.I'd also like to note that page protection was granted by Callanec, an Oversighter and Arbitration clerk, who surely must be familiar with BLP policy.  It was not my "preferred version" that was protected, it was the version without the blatant BLP violation. BMK (talk) 01:42, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * You are not "defending against edit warring". You ARE edit warring. You are the only person to break 3RR on this article.
 * There is no "unsourced innuendo". The text says exactly what more than a dozen sources say. We could quote DIRECTLY from reliable secondary sources and it would be exactly the same thing. You are just using WP:BLP as a bullshit excuse. And yes, it was, "your version" which you tried to get protected. Which evidences bad faith.  Volunteer Marek   01:53, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Please read more carefully. I did not say I was "defending against edit warring", I said exactly what I said to you on the article talk page, that edits which remove BLP violations are immune from 3RR, so that is an "absolute defense against [the charge of] edit warring". What I was defending the article from was unequivocal BLP violations by you and the other editor. Since BLP-violation-removing edits are immune from 3RR, I cannot, by definition, have been "edit warring". As for innuendo, the mention of Putin's birthday in relation to the murder most certainly is innuendo, as it implies some connection between them - or else why mention it at all.  I am sorry that you cannot, or do not want to, understand this, but it is absolutely so, per Drmies' argument regarding Desmond Tutu on the talk page. That's all I will say here, since this is not the place for the continuation of talk page disputes. BMK (talk) 03:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * There was no "unequivocal BLP violations" except in your mind. Over half a dozen sources were presented to support the text. The policy explicitly states: " What counts as exempt under BLP can be controversial. Consider reporting to the BLP noticeboard instead of relying on this exemption." You did not choose to pursue that option but instead engaged in edit warring. The mention of Putin's birthday is made in pretty much. Every. Single. Source. On. The. Subject. For you to demand that we ignore what sources say is about as twisted, backwards-ass, reading of WP:BLP as one could possibly come up with. For you to use that to excuse your edit warring and breaking 3RR merits at the very least a stern warning.  Volunteer Marek   03:22, 14 September 2015 (UTC)


 * I don't want to see anyone blocked, and I haven't looked at the history of who reverted who when and how many times. But I do have to say that I believe that the basic statement that "Mrs. X was murdered on Putin's birthday", even if expanded to "Many sources note that Mrs. X was murdered on Putin's birthday", is a BLP violation since it asks the reader to speculate on what the meaning of that possible coincidence might be. I am more interested in an admin acquainted with the BLP confirming this fact (that innuendo like this is a BLP violation) than I am in anyone getting blocked. The talk page section is a bit long by now, but you can skip the parts that I didn't write, haha. (I didn't come up with Desmond Tutu--another editor did that and actually stuck it in the article, as a very POINTy point.) Thanks, Drmies (talk) 03:17, 14 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Here is my edit on this page. As should be clear from the text, authors of every book claim about 'an actual connection and explain why the date of murder was important. However, these sources served only to justify inclusion of the fact noted as extremely important in a vast majority of RS on the subject. There is no way the reverts by BMK can be justified as removal of poorly sourced materials per BLP rules. The books are written by professional historians who are experts on the history of assassinations in Russia, among other things. Unless BMK admits that he did it wrong (including gaming the system and refusal to talk on article talk page after loosing the argument), he is going to repeat the same on other similar occasions in a future. My very best wishes (talk) 03:19, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Gentlemen, there will be no fighting in the war room. Marek, My very best wishes, it seems to be obvious that there is edit warring here. (The claim that BMK is gaming the system by asking for protection is silly--if BMK is right that this is a BLP violation, they are doing the right thing.) The only thing, then, that matters is whether BMK can reasonably argue that he can invoke BLP. I think that he can, and I am speaking through my administrative mouth piece. It's for that reason that I earlier removed the claim from the article, an edit reverted by, well, someone. Why this is a BLP violation, I have explained this a few times already. You can disagree, of course, but what matters here is whether an uninvolved admin (who's not being paid by the Kremlin, of course) thinks that BMK reasonably invoked the BLP. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 03:27, 14 September 2015 (UTC)


 * I agree that this is a very well-grounded BLP concern. Thinly-veiled innuendo such as this that obviously implicates Putin in a murder of one of his opponents is entirely non-neutral and out of line with BLP. If reliable sources directly discuss his connection, there's nothing wrong with including it, but the contested phrase is horribly passive-aggressive innuendo that implies much more than is written, and that's not appropriate for a neutral article. S warm   ♠  04:26, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Pretty much every single source which discusses the murders states that it happened on Putin's birthday. The fact that it happened when it did is a central and key aspect of this topic. Which is why almost every single source mentions it. You can't just omit something that every single reliable source talks about - that's a straight up misrepresentation of sources.  Volunteer Marek   15:06, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Here I've listed over thirty sources which mention the fact. I can easily list thirty more. Like I said, almost every single source on the topic talks about it.  Volunteer Marek   15:08, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

The following map File:Concentration of whites in the American Continent.png was improved since the old one had some errors on it. It was improved with official sources. Between the errors on this map is that Venezuelan concentration of white people were located on the old map on the Eastern side (something it's not true since the white population in Venezuela are in the andean, western, central and capital region), and it's sourced to be below 20% when offical data for the entire country is 43,3%. Colombia is shown as an homogeneous country, while official data shown that white population are mostly concentrated in Andean states, and some coastal and amazonian states are less this.

User:Garageland66 reported by User:Andy Dingley (Result: Protected for a week)
Page:

User being reported:

Persistent edit-warring over articles on UK left-wing politics. See Talk:Communist_Party_of_Britain and particularly. They've now switched to Hard left, a term that is widely applied (usually pejoratively from the right wing press) to a few left wing UK politicians, particularly in the '80s and '90s. This is hardly even a contentious term: those to whom it was applied have proudly embraced it. Garageland disagrees and, as we saw at Communist Party of Britain, only his version is the one true correct version. This is refuted by several other editors.

Diffs of the user's reverts:
 * 1)
 * 2)
 * 3)
 * 4)

As first stated, these claims were unsourced. That's not a problem to any reader familiar with UK politics (there is no credible challenge that "Red Ken" hasn't regularly been described as hard left). However policy wants sources, so I added sources to each one. Garageland has now seen fit to remove those too, with the utter nonsense claim, "Put these references on their Wiki profile pages first. If they're accepted there, then they can go here. Unlikely to be successful. Wikipedia should not be smearing current politicians." That is not how sourcing works on WP, even when Garageland disagrees. Any discussion at Talk:Hard_left has just seen Garageland stone-walling.

I'm suspecting that a topic ban might start to be considered (certainly a topic ban on undiscussed POV page moves, such as ), given what an ongoing and topic-focussed problem this is. Garageland certainly has no appreciation for collegial editing and consensus. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:32, 13 September 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm not engaged in edit-warring I'm trying to achieve a consensus. I'm not sure why there should be a topic ban for me when I have been trying to reach a compromise. Each attempt at this has been responded to with flat rejection. I don't know what it is that gives Andy Dingley the power to respond to my request for compromise with a flat "no". Please read the Talk Page, to see his inflexible approach.


 * On other pages my contributions HAVE achieved a consensus. For example on the Communist Party of Britain page it was finally agreed to compromise with Left-wing/Far-left as a compromise.
 * After you wore everyone else down with your intransigence and you were blocked for edit-warring. Do not mistake exhaustion for agreement. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:15, 14 September 2015 (UTC)


 * I asked that the reference for Jeremy Corbyn as hard left be removed because the source is a very partisan right-wing newspaper - hardly in keeping with Wikipedia's impartial reputation. I've also asked that the leader of the United Kingdom's opposition, Jeremy Corbyn, be removed from the Hard Left page as it is a smear on a high profile political figure. His Wiki profile page makes no reference to him being Hard left. But Andy Dingley is acting as judge and jury on this and deciding that no change can be made.


 * I have tried the compromise of leaving Ken Livingstone on (or 'Red Ken' as Andy Dingley chooses to disrespectfully call him) because Ken Livingstone's page DOES list him as hard left. And then take the other names off. But again Andy Dingley has acted as judge and jury and flatly rejected such a compromise with a "no".


 * Can somebody intervene and try to arbitrate? To leave some high profile names on the Hard left page (while Wikipedia does not describe Nigel Farage or other such figures as Hard right) is to smear those names. (Garageland66 (talk) 11:19, 14 September 2015 (UTC))

 * Someone needs to deal with Garageland66 -- he's stripping out parts he doesn't like, again;
 * (.. continue) he has gone ahead and stripped the parts which he doesn't like, yet again, although he's a complete one-man band minority on the talk page. We didn't reach a consensus, yet he went ahead and edited out names which he doesn't like because he thinks it's "slander" when it's not. He's clearly only removing the names that have recently become a lot more popular in UK politics. He seems to forget that he's the one who decided to go ahead and remove names years after they were put onto the article - yet he believes his copies are the ones which should be live whilst we 'talk' - although no one reached a consensus. He has removed them at least a minimum of 4 times, now. Attractel (talk) 21:43, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: (if this counts)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: (The edit summaries in the above diffs contain the conversation, but it stems from here.)

Comments: While I can respect that enough users don't appear to agree with my side of the situation, what I don't condone is Cassianto's way of handling things. He first appeared to have an attitude in his comments earlier in the discussion (albeit those weren't directed toward me); but things really came to a head when he deleted my entire comment by claiming that it was off-topic. I clearly explained that the comment was not off-topic (as well as warned him for violating WP:TPO); still, he wouldn't let up. I then told him that if he reverted a third time, I would start a thread here; after which he not only archived the thread, but he also left a message on my talk page stating that he didn't "give a shit" if I made a report.

I really don't think edit-warring by closing a discussion that he not only participated in but also categorized incorrectly was appropriate. Wouldn't it have been better if someone uninvolved closed the discussion if they felt the need to? (I didn't revert the close because I didn't want to violate WP:3RR myself.)  Erpert  blah, blah, blah... 04:32, 17 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Erpert was sprawling for a fight with and despite being told on the Grande talk page to "keep to the topic", Erpert still decided to pursue their conquest by engaging in an unproductive argument.  The thread header was "Navbox" and the topic of that conversation should remain at "Navbox". If the user wanted to change that subject, by talking about another improvement-based topic they should've built a sub-header or started a different subject altogether. However, if they felt the need to discuss the conduct of another user, they should've approached that user on their talk page to discuss things, not conduct a public argument to the detriment of that article's talk page. Bringing an edit war argument to an article talk page, which is designed for article improvement, is disruptive and does not benefit the article in the least. I closed the discussion, which I'm permitted to do as an uninvolved party, as a productive way to end the dispute before things got worse.  And guess what,  it worked!   Cassianto <sup style="font-family:Papyrus;">Talk   07:11, 17 September 2015 (UTC)


 * As an semi-involved editor (involved in the thread, not the reversions), there has been no breach of 3RR here. It requires four reversions to breach 3RR, not the two that Cassianto has undertaken. The third diff provided above was Cassianto closing the discussion leaving Erpert's comments in place, and not edit warring - or even coming close to it. (A reminder that WP:3RR states "An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page—whether involving the same or different material—within a 24-hour period").
 * As there has been no breach of WP:3RR here, I suggest this is speedily closed. - SchroCat (talk) 07:20, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

 * If I got 3RR incorrect, I apologize because I always thought it couldn't be three reverts&mdash;although it is still edit-warring. And maybe Cassianto has a different definition of "fight" than I have (I refer to fighting as battling, which I do not engage in; also, if SchroCat thought I was fighting with him/her, wouldn't s/he have said that?) because I was calmly answering the questions given to me; at any rate, IMO, closing the thread when he was already involved (despite his claims to the contrary) seemed like a clever way of saying: "Well, technically that isn't edit-warring because I didn't do exactly the same thing." (And no one bothered to give an opinion on the WP:TPO violation?)  Erpert  blah, blah, blah... 00:28, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

 * This is ridiculous. Almost 29 hours expired before I made the edit MrX is referring to.  Mr.X has refused to address the issues with the content in dispute at the article Talk, despite the fact that I raised substantive policy issues there (regarding synth and undue) over 33 hours ago.  (And despite the fact that he/she has been quite active on the project during that time.) Is s/he exempt from engaging in Talk?  Instead MrX waited until I posted the edit I proposed in Talk and then almost immediately ran here to complain.  S/he has been engaged in a persistent campaign to insert POV content in that article, and more than one editor has expressed concerns with the content. I'll also note that Mr.X did not notify me of his/her post here, despite the fact that the original complaint has already been addressed by an admin.  In my opinion, that is definitely outside the bounds of good faith behavior.CFredkin (talk) 02:00, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Interesting. Here are my talk page edits in for the past few days . Actually no less than three editors support the content that you have removed five times. I don't know how the content could be "POV" since it's almost a direct quote from a reputable source, but of course, that's not an excuse to edit war anyway. Also, you have been heavy handed with reverting at Carly Fiorina, even after being warned about edit warring.- MrX 02:49, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
 * A review of the actual edits you've made to the Talk page in the last ~34 hours indicates that you've made no attempt to address the issues I've raised there.  And as I stated above at least 2 editors have objected to your edits to the article.  Content can be POV when you engage in synth to make a point and insist that it appear multiple times in the article to emphasize that point.CFredkin (talk) 03:03, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

User:Nomoskedasticity seems to feel that an image multiple editors have tried to put into the infobox at Jeremy Corbyn violates WP:BLP. He has unilaterally taken upon himself to revert all attempts to add the image. NickCT (talk) 14:36, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * It was also addressed on his TP here. He has never actually expanded his proposition of a BLPVIO, merely repeated that it not the case. He has been advised that it is not taken 'out of context to present a person in a false or disparaging light,' and the consensus on the article TP reflects this. <sub style="color:green;">Fortuna <sup style="color:red;">Imperatrix Mundi  14:46, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I asserted in good faith the sincere view that the image being restored was a BLP violation, for disparaging the subject (it truly looks awful), and I’m disappointed to see that NictCT is pursuing things in this way. I contributed to the talk page discussions in several sections, making this view entirely clear.  In my last edit, I removed the picture entirely rather than again restoring the one I had been restoring; I did this because NickCT drew attention to his own view (which I had not noticed previously) that he thought the one I was inserting was a violation of WP:MUG – in other words, I did not try to override his own BLP objection (once I was aware of it), while the reverse is plainly not true.  The current situation of no image can stay as is until we can find an image that does not raise these concerns and gains consensus. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 14:43, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The picture is on Commons - and is not a police "mug shot" which appears to be the only specific type of image of a living person generally deemed to be a BLP issue. Thus it is a matter of consensus among the editors there entirely.  If it were actually remotely near a BLP issue, I would assert that it should be removed for sure.   I do think "who keeps fucking with the photo" appears to be a tad less than civil, and might be deemed a personal attack, possibly actionable per se.   For matters of editorial discretion, the only proper recourse is to the article talk page. Collect (talk) 14:57, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

 * I'm also a little confused by User:CambridgeBayWeather protecting the page. Seems like overkill. The entire page is locked down over a dispute regarding the infobox image.
 * And saying someone has a "sincere" WP:BLP concern seems like poor rationale. I have a sincere WP:BLP concern that not using the image I was trying to add constitutes a violation. Does that mean I can edit war? NickCT (talk) 15:58, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

 * No it is not permission to edit war. How can you when the page is protected? The thing is that if the page is protected then a discussion can be continued on the talk page with the possibility of it being resolved. As long as one, and sometimes more, editors are blocked then the edit war is only postponed and no discussion gets held. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 16:12, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

 * (ec) - Not sure what you're on about. CambridgeBayWeather didn't change the image. Regardless, still not sure page protection was a great call here. There was clearly an ongoing discussion at the point the page was protected, and the actual warring had stopped. NickCT (talk) 17:04, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

, I made two edits, this and this. Which of those two edits changed the image from this version? If you still think I changed the image then I suggest you report me for abusing my admin tools. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 16:50, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

I have struck my inaccurate comment, and apologise to Cambriweather. -Roxy the inaccurate dog™ (Resonate) 16:59, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * - re "No it is not permission to edit war." - But you're effectively saying it is permission to edit war by forgiving User:Nomoskedasticity's obvious edit warring by saying simply that you believed him to be "sincere". NickCT (talk) 17:09, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

, go read Edit warring, #7 and Biographies of living persons. Thanks. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 17:15, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Edit warring specifically says Removal of libelous, biased, unsourced, or poorly sourced contentious material that violates the policy on biographies of living persons (BLP). What counts as exempt under BLP can be controversial. Consider reporting to the BLP noticeboard instead of relying on this exemption. Why not expect people to go to the BLP noticeboard instead of relying on the exemption? NickCT (talk) 17:17, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The Edit warring makes no allowance for such editwarring. And if one of those exemptions was relevant, then this would also apply: "If you are claiming an exemption, make sure there is a clearly visible edit summary or separate section of the talk page that explains the exemption. When in doubt, do not revert"... that seems pretty clear. <sub style="color:green;">Fortuna <sup style="color:red;">Imperatrix Mundi  17:22, 17 September 2015 (UTC)


 * "to go to the BLP noticeboard" because people react. When it comes to BLP almost all editors, that I have seen, will revert rather than make a proper report. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 17:29, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * - "almost all editors, that I have seen, will revert rather than make a proper report" - And you condone that? NickCT (talk) 17:34, 17 September 2015 (UTC)


 * I never said that I did condone it. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 17:39, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, dismissing edit warring by saying it was done with "sincerity" seems to condone it. NickCT (talk) 17:49, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Regardless, it's probably time to move this debate forward. Any chance you could un-protect? I think there is little risk of the infobox picture being subject to continued warring. NickCT (talk) 17:50, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I normally avoid heavily-edited articles, and if I do touch them, it's only to fix minor formatting and spelling mistakes and the like. Above all, I try to stay out of edit wars (I'd rather spend my time on productive work). But I have to say that I agree with Nomoskedasticity that the image was tantamount to a BLP violation, and I commend CambridgeBayWeather for a good admin call. I think NickCT errs in thinking that the absence of commments implies that no-one supports Nomoskedasticity. --NSH001 (talk) 17:52, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * - re "the image was tantamount to a BLP violation" - Great. It's good that you thought that. If you read the talk page, it's clear that many others didn't. The point is, it wasn't an undisputed BLP violation (as evidenced by the support the image garnered on the talk page). If it isn't an undisputed BLP violation, you shouldn't edit war it. NickCT (talk) 17:58, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * perhaps Nick might have more correctly said "you shouldn't edit war it in" -Roxy the dog™ (Resonate) 18:11, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * And of course, how can an absence of comments imply such a thing. Consensus is, I'm afraid, built on the slightly more tangiible presence of commentary and opinion. Slightly misleading interpretation of policy I fancy. <sub style="color:green;">Fortuna <sup style="color:red;">Imperatrix Mundi  18:23, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * No, you haven't understood what I said. On the talk page, NickCT wrote "Snow Image 2", which you then promptly implemented, when there was absolutely no consensus to do so. made exactly the right call here, as this is the sort of disagreement that is obviously going to take some time to sort out on the talk page, and should wait for a clear consensus to emerge. If the process is done properly, I expect it to take several days, unless a suitable photo becomes available from the Labour Party or Corbyn's team in the meantime. FWIW, I think all the images are pretty bad, but the said "Image 2" is by far the least suitable for the infobox. --NSH001 (talk) 20:47, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I have understood you perfectly. You, however, have not understood what you are citing. Yes: that was implemented: and it was continually reimplemented by a body of editors. That = a form of consensus. Waiting for people to arrive: NOT consensus. <sub style="color:green;">Fortuna <sup style="color:red;">Imperatrix Mundi  20:53, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
 * - re "which you then promptly implemented" - I didn't actually, but that's OK. Regardless, I had a "sincere" concern that the image I was replacing presented a BLP concern. So you'd support that move, right?
 * We all think all the images are pretty bad, which I why I encouraged everyone to be constructive and look for new images instead of edit warring. NickCT (talk) 12:57, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

Unsigned edit warrior at Garage rock article

There is an unsigned editor engaged in an edit war (from different IP addresses) at the Garage rock, who has now done it three times. I don't know whether his/her intensions are sincerely misguided or if it should be regarded as a case of vandalism. But the situation should be monitored.

I've never reported an incident before, so I'm not and expert at this kind of notice. Above, I have printed out a log of incidents above. You will notice that both Ghmyrtle and I have tried to appeal to the unsigned editor to stop the warring and discuss the issue on the talk page. We would be very open-minded about hearing that editor's perspective, and even consider finding sources to justify any of his/her proposed changes--if it is done in a civil way according to protocol. But, right now that editor is not going about it in a constructive way. I want to believe that the his/her actions are sincere and well-intended, but with an unsigned editor, we can never rule out the possibility of vandalism.

Not just 3RR, but also copying entire article subsection (6000 bytes) to another article hence breaking edit history, and using deliberately-misleading edit summaries. Week-old editor, has even requested adminship! Clearly does not know how WP works. Jeh (talk) 19:52, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Well I cannot exactly self-revert because a bonehead that calls himself C Fred has lately entered the edit war and has misused his admin powers to join in the battle.
