User has repeatedly reverted other users' edits. Considering how active they are on the page, I suspect there might be a case of WP:OWN here. The Grand Delusion (Send a message) 01:53, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

. Outside a 24 hours span. And several parameters were left blank in this report. Also, your dates don't match the history for some reason, which is strange. Anyway, please feel free to relist if further reverting (even ones falling short of 3RR) by the user persist in the immediate future — but it's possible for ownership to be conflated with simple stewardship.

This user has been involved in an ongoing edit warring since August. There has been several attempts at the talk page to try gain consensus with the user, however due to among other pov-pushing, lack of knowledge of wikipedian policies and language barrier, have consensus not been reached. The user has already been banned before. However, the ban has not changed anything with the users edit warring approach.Xenani (talk) 21:25, 18 February 2020 (UTC)


 * @Xenani: When was the ban? I see a DS warning and a 24-hour block for edit warring, but I don't see a ban. —C.Fred (talk) 22:05, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

 * And I'm apparently a "petty troll" for reporting and notifying the editor. Walter Görlitz (talk) 17:03, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Walter was incorrect with their report, and it was malformed, but that's still no reason to take WP:ABF seriously. Please keep that in mind. (Whoops. Seems the Reply script broke. Moved.) —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 19:16, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks Moony; I do take it seriously but, as I've outlined before, when there has been disruption by an editor over three talk pages including untruths told about me and explanations of my actions being completely ignored because of a trifling grudge, my reservoir of GF runs a little dry. - SchroCat (talk) 19:21, 20 February 2020 (UTC)


 * No, you're a petty little troll for being disruptive on my talk page, the article talk page and the lies you wrote on MelanieN's talk page.
 * A couple of things I already mentioned on 's page: 1. Well done, this is a list of edits to the page, not reverts. I have no idea why you thought it necessary to list all my edits, but it's clear you're grasping at straws and don't understand diddly sqaut. 2. reverts on BLPs are sometimes exempt from 3RR (and I have pointed you to WP:NOT3RR already, but it looks like you've ignored it entirely). Many of the actual reverts I have done have been because the sourcing is missing, or it is claiming something that is untrue - it is entirely acceptable to revert such breaches of the BLP policy. Once you take that on board, you will see that there are a few true reversions, and these are spread over an extended period. Many of these are for breaches of WP:ENGVAR or because of woeful grammar. 3. As I've said before, I cannot take someone like you seriously after you edit warred over adding spaces (and bringing in some awful formatting too): you have been extremely petty and disruptive in your approach since then. If anyone wants me for anything useful, you'll have to ping me, because I won't be watching this. - SchroCat (talk) 17:09, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Any change to another editor's content is a revert. See WP:3RR. You've made four more since the report. Walter Görlitz (talk) 17:40, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * By that logic any edit made to existing text is a revert, is that really your argument here? MPJ-DK (talk) 18:07, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , Yeek. Hate to say this, Walter, but you should withdraw this, take a careful moment to think this over, clean up your argument, and not present every single one of 's edits, and very carefully decide if this is even a valid report at all. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 18:27, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * No, the following are exceptions:
 * # Reverting your own actions ("self-reverting").
 * # Reverting edits to pages in your own user space, so long as you are respecting the user page guidelines.
 * # Reverting actions performed by banned users in violation of their ban, and sockpuppets of banned or blocked users.
 * # Reverting obvious vandalism—edits that any well-intentioned user would agree constitute vandalism, such as page blanking and adding offensive language.
 * # Removal of clear copyright violations or content that unquestionably violates the non-free content policy (NFCC). What counts as exempt under NFCC can be controversial, and should be established as a violation first.
 * # Removal of other content that is clearly illegal under U.S. law, such as child pornography and links to pirated software.
 * # Removing contentious material that is libelous, biased, unsourced, or poorly sourced according to our biographies of living persons (BLP) policy. What counts as exempt under BLP can be controversial.
 * Are you suggesting the multiple edits made by SchroCat are exempt based on one or more of this criteria? Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:31, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * "Any change to another editor's content is a revert"? Ouch. I have already explained on several occasions that many of the reverts (the real reverts, not the things you think are reverts) were because of the BLP violations. I have explained this to you FOUR times (1, 2, 3 and 4) and I hope the message is now getting through. - SchroCat (talk) 18:36, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , I am, by not being reverts in the first place. No 3RR occured. Alongside that, it looks like you're attempting to "inflate" the charge against them by filling it with edits. I'm not going to review every single one, so how about you pick out the ones you feel are actually edit warring. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 18:38, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * If you won't do the work, I will assist. I have removed the trivial and unnecessary edits. What now remains are changes to other editors' work. Despite what SchroCat's understanding is the criteria is clear, that a change to another editor's work is a revert. Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:52, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

. A change to another editor's work is not automatically a revert. There needs to be a Previous version reverted to shown —a parameter that was left blank in this report— to demonstrate that an edit constitutes a revert. El_C 18:58, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, that list of "reverts" includes typo fixes, correcting bad English, MOS fixes, moving text from one place to another, and even removing a BLP violation. We can't look at an EW report on the basis of that. Black Kite (talk) 19:01, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Gosh darn it, El C, For some dumb reason, I spent way too much time reviewing each of the diffs from the original poorly-formed report, only to find that (a) it had been shortened, and (b) you've just closed it. For what it's worth, here's my intended post:
 * ''The report is malformed, and I probably should have closed it without reviewing all of the diffs to discourage future reports like this. Walter Görlitz is encouraged to review WP:reverting to better understand what a revert is; changing a previous edit is not a revert, it's just incremental improvement.  You need to substantially undo someone else's edit, going back to a previous version, to be considered a revert.  However, I went ahead and reviewed all of the edits. It appears there were only 4 or 5 actual reverts that weren't subject to a BLP exemption, spread over 2 or 3 days. In a page with such high-frequency changes, this doesn't come close to "edit warring", much less a violation of WP:3RR. I also note that, unless I missed one, it does not appear any of them were repeats of a previous revert. No violation.
 * --Floquenbeam (talk) 19:06, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Sure. In the future, I will link to this exact link if I'm ever brought here again. Walter Görlitz (talk) 19:11, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Or indeed if you ever bring something here again - I mean you were "brought here" by you logging the complaint. MPJ-DK (talk) 04:17, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Comments:

This has been an ongoing edit war since August of 2019. Multiple editors have pointed out the same facts using different reliable references, yet their edits are quickly reverted. An RFC was published and the results were split but there seems to have been instances where reference articles were using the Wiki article as one of their sources. I am trying to make the band's page current and accurate (including using all caps for their name which is accurate) using many different and reliable references, including the official announcement by their previous label where the band was said to be "Alternative", and nothing else. Examples of other band pages that fit this exact issue were given to make a point that references used in their pages seemed to not be allowed on this page. One major reference discrepancy is that other pages used band interviews as references yet it seems that this page cannot use similar articles. Some of these examples are listed in the talk page. I understand the need for accurate references and multiple editors, including myself, have provided many accurate articles in support of the correction I am trying to make. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MJC8104 (talk • contribs) 04:43, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * – This page is for recent edit warring; Walter has made only one revert so far in 2020. It takes four reverts in a 24 hour period to break the 3RR rule. Consider the steps of WP:Dispute resolution. By the way, the question of putting VERIDIA in all caps was considered in a move discussion. There was consensus to use lower case per the Wikipedia WP:Manual of style. EdJohnston (talk) 05:08, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Refuses to seek consensus for a multitude of changes (some of which I support and would have happily helped him implement after a talk page discussion) to the article on the talk page. In response to reversion they escalated their revisions of the page. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 19:48, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * First three edits were not reverts, they were changes regarding image over usage per:WP:Image dos and don'ts. last two were information update(s) adding content, I left the image issue alone. Editors adding content or update(s) with sources, shouldn’t need to open a discussion on the talk page. That’s what I thought edit summaries are for. - FOX 52 (talk) 20:04, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Its not the added content which was questioned, it was the considerable amount of removed content. The point about picture over use is a good one, what needs to be discussed on the talk page are which images are to be removed. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 20:10, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Also don’t know if you noticed but your edit resulted in a near duplication of the armaments section (as well as the Air Defense section), one of which had the TC-2 picture you keep insisting on removing removed. A review of  suggests that you've been using WP:IMAGEMOS as the justification to remove that image of a 737 since 2015. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 20:15, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes noticed and repaired on my last revision - and all information in the table is still the same, just placed trainers in their proper sections i.e.: F-16B / F-5F per the source – variants are horizontal as opposed to the vertical like the way it was, back you edited (May of 2019) - FOX 52 (talk) 20:33, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Just a point of order, it was my reversion which repaired the damage caused by your edit. Your most recent edit which moved the F-CK-1 Ds to “conversion trainer” is factually incorrect, which is something we should be discussing on the talk page rather than on a noticeboard. You have not demonstrated the necessary competence (e.g. basic knowledge about Taiwan’s munitions and platforms) to make such sweeping changes to the ROCAF page. In addition if you want to use paywalled sources be prepared to explain what those sources say on the talk page. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 20:47, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

From his own admission, HEJ is more concerned with reverting than content creation. Recommend immediate WP:BOOMERANG in light of HEJ finding themselves at the center of yet another noticeboard thread in the span of less than two weeks. The continued cheeky comments (derogatory), as admonished by others, are but an attempt at WP:GAMEing by circumventing outright violations of WP:CIVIL / WP:NPA while acting in a condescending manner, and must stop. Caradhras Aiguo ( leave language ) 20:53, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Is that supposed to be worse than outright violations of WP:NPA and persistent refusal to abide by basic standards of civility? If you want to invoke the most dangerous of weapons, the WP:BOOMERANG, be wary of its sting. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 21:08, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * You are the one who filed this report on a third user; by definition, the only WP:BOOMERANG that could be applied here would be against you. Your filibustering cannot alter that immutable definition, which is as basic as arithmetic.
 * That is inaccurate, per WP:BOOMERANG “Anyone who participated in the dispute or discussions might find their actions under scrutiny.” You brought up WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL, that wasn’t part of the original discussion. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 21:21, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * The dispute central to this thread is about content at Republic of China Air Force. Yet another example of an "over-the-top irrelevancy" designed to derail discussion. Caradhras Aiguo ( leave language ) 21:28, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Again a desperate attempt at WP:NOTTHEM-style deflection...this thread is about the conduct of and yourself, who has been admonished by an WP:UNINVOLVED editor as reverting for the sake of it, not myself. Caradhras Aiguo ( leave language ) 21:15, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * WP:NOTTHEM only applies to blocked users. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 21:21, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

 * No, its part of "an explanatory supplement to the appealing a block guideline page.” Its “spirit" can not be applied outside of an extremely specific contextHorse Eye Jack (talk) 21:35, 21 February 2020 (UTC)


 * You obviously can both talk and engage on the talkpage, because your doing it. Do that so I don't have to use my tools. This page is on my watchlist, and I'll intervene if the edit war continues. -- Amanda  (aka DQ) 05:21, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

I've been waging an edit war with user:Editor1377 in the page pupusa for about a month now. The question doesn't seem very serious at first sight but you should consider all this: For all that, I think that user:Editor1377 can clearly be defined as a disruptive user, and some kind of measure should be taken about him/her. Jotamar (talk) 18:03, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
 * The first edition by user:Editor1377 was a deletion that I immediately spotted as an attempt to hide the name of the country Honduras from the page, and consequently I reverted it, with an explanation in the edit summary.
 * Since that moment, user:Editor1377 has systematically unreverted my edition, typically with just a few hours of delay.
 * In his/her edition summaries, user:Editor1377 tries to conceal the fact that the editions are (un)reversions.
 * user:Editor1377 has only ever made one single edition that is not related to this edit war in pupusa or to his/her user page.
 * Waging an edit war, especially for this long is not appropriate regardless of the content. You never warned the user or attempted to engage in dialogue with them. Try that instead of trying to get the editor blocked or WP:BOOMERANG may apply. -- Amanda  (aka DQ) 05:27, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

 * I've been an edit war with user:Jotamar in the page pupusa. He has been uploading claims with no factual base.


 * user:Jotamar claims the origin of the pupusa is also from another country which is clearly incorrect. The correct orgin of the pupusa is the country of El Salvador with no facts to back his claim he submits revisions.


 * user:Jotamar makes edits as an assumption without any supporting evidence whatsoever should not be allowed and that is why his claims are reverted.

Sulfurboy (talk) 16:53, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Alright, I'll try to keep this concise. There's been a conflict/misunderstanding around this article involving Wikipedians such as Sulfurboy, ArnabSaha, JLAN and Barkeep49. Original article about Dr. Tkachuk has been in place on Ukrainian Wikipedia for over a year - uk:Ткачук Марина Леонідівна ; I used that, as well as the openly available information at the university website to create a similarly fashioned article here on English Wikipedia. Please mind the Ukrainian article has never had any issues with notability, validity of information or otherwise. It was very amusing to find out people from India and Texas know much more on the subject than them. Since this is already turning into more text than it should, I'll just point out the chain of events:

1) I present the draft, which, after some tweaks, is approved by Sulfuboy. The article is created. 2) ArnabSaha flags is for G12 speedy deletion because of assumed/suspected copyright infringement of NaUKMA website materials. JLAN deletes the article and flags the Commons photograph for deletion as well. 3) Following the necessary declarations, both the photo and the materials are verified, and the article is undeleted. 4) I start working on it in order to improve it, add citations and the like. 5) I face the article being vandalised by Sulfurboy, the information outright deleted, although being perfectly cited etc.

Throughout this experience I faced lots of frustration with how English Wikipedia operates already. There were unbacked claims that the person isn't notable, unbacked claims that I am paid for writing this article. I am tired of all this and of how bureaucratic your enviroinment is. My aim is improving Wikipedia and making Ukrainian educational and scientific enviroinment better known to outside world. I am not a hired editor or paid employee, I just want people to leave me alone and let me make a decent article. I am open to criticism and advice, but when in a couple of hours someone deletes it based on a wild assumption - that's not advice, that's spit in the face.

So, at this point, because I'm tired of all this story and furthermore just to prove the point I am not paid for this or anything - you can go ahead and delete the article alltogether, forever. Shame that English Wikipedia is not an accumulation of humanity's knowledge where people are equal and can work together, but instead is merely a bunch of bureaucrats feeding their egos. Peace. Flchans (talk) 17:25, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I've requested G7 on the page as the author has requested deletion and they look to be the only one that has made any significant contribution to the page.Sulfurboy (talk) 17:36, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Dear Sulfurboy, there is a world of difference between "You can go ahead and delete" and "You should delete" or "Please delete". BUT, I honestly have nothing against you viewing my words as such and placing your G7 or whatever you call it. By all means. Would be a great victory for Wikipedian bureaucracy. Best. Flchans (talk) 17:58, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello User:Sulfurboy. The creator of the article, Flchans, placed a db-author tag on the article but the tag was removed by User:Pigsonthewing in the belief that the subject is notable. After reading the discussion above, are you OK with closing this AN3 complaint with no further action? EdJohnston (talk) 01:41, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

I warned both parties making edits to Dan Lam about the three revert rule. I even attempted to mediate the conflict over the infobox image on the pages talk page. Yet, user User:MB has persisted with yet another revert. I don't like reporting an experienced editor as he seems to be, but I'm afraid if his actions on the page continue to go unchecked it will further discourage the original page creator User:WriteIncunabula who is a new editor to Wikipedia from continuing to contribute. Sulfurboy (talk) 03:21, 26 February 2020 (UTC)


 * , I don't follow this. The issue on the infobox image was resolved after you rendered your opinion that the image did not belong in the infobox. I have made some other unrelated changes to the article after that. I restored the orphan tag and explained on the other user's talk page that the article was still an orphan, contrary to their belief, and explained to them how to check that. MB 03:29, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * As you should be aware MB, there is no valid excuse to edit war, especially with AWB, the restoration of orphan. Hell, there is a tool linked directly in the box that shows two other articles. Continue to revert, and a block will be issued. For now, your AWB access is revoked. -- Amanda  (aka DQ) 07:20, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Am I seeing this right? We blocked someone for editing there own user page?-- Moxy 🍁 23:48, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
 * The blocked user edit warred to keep in place a comment that its author withdrew before it was replied to. 331dot (talk) 23:49, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , how many times did the OP do the same? This block is not a good block. You don't go to someone's user talk page and then keep reverting. You blocked Debresser but not the OP, why? Sir Joseph (talk) 00:01, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * So you seem to be saying that a user is not permitted to withdraw their un-replied to comment? 331dot (talk) 00:03, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , I didn't say any of that. Sir Joseph (talk) 00:07, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * OK this looks very odd.....the user was restoring a post so they could reply to it but it was removed over and over again by original poster? Why cant the user reply to the post....what gives the poster the right to comment but not have to deal with a reply?.You can see how this looks backwards right. Odd an edit war on a user page ends up with the page owner being blocked.-- Moxy 🍁 23:56, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Yeah kind of odd. I count at least 5 reverts by SchroCat. PackMecEng (talk) 00:00, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Most of which I will note have replies to them. PackMecEng (talk) 00:02, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's a grey area between the right to withdraw comments and the desire of some users to keep all material that's been on their own user talk page. I'm not sure if there's a policy governing that. But to block one edit warrior and not the other, when both broke the 3RR, looks a bit like taking sides in the dispute. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 00:03, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I am not taking a side. I am respecting the desire to attempt to deescalate a situation.  331dot (talk) 00:05, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Generally reverting on your own page is exempt per WP:3RR point 2. Closest I could find to a policy on this. PackMecEng (talk) 00:07, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * But reverting to keep a comment withdrawn by its author on the page to carry on a dispute is okay? I'm genuinely asking. 331dot (talk) 00:12, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * At this point once it was reverted and replied to I would say yes. The over 4 reverts from SchroCat become less de-escalation and more just rubbing it in. PackMecEng (talk) 00:15, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * , right, OP could have brought this to EW a few edits ago, but to only block one person is wrong when the OP violated 3RR on someone else's talk page. Sir Joseph (talk) 00:17, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * (ec) So once a user posts something to another's user talk page, if that user removes it, the page's owner can restore it and reply to it against the poster's wishes? 331dot (talk) 00:18, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * From what I see, technically yes. Is there a policy that goes against the 3RR exemption? Because from what I see Debresser gets the exemption and SchoCat does not. Perhaps they should be more careful what they post on other peoples talk page and then not edit war with them about it? That could probably go for both people honestly. PackMecEng (talk) 00:20, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * So SchoCat gets penalized for attempting to deescalate a situation because he made the error of posting something he would like to take back on to someone else's user talk page? Talk about a way to discourage communication between editors on their user talk pages. 331dot (talk) 00:23, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

After the first or second revert I would agree with you, they are trying to deescalate. After the fifth and it was replied too? Hard to say with a straight face they were trying to deescalate isn't it? PackMecEng (talk) 00:25, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I would disagree as I don't feel the persistence of the person desiring to carry on a dispute should be rewarded. 331dot (talk) 00:30, 26 February 2020 (UTC)


 * As this is proving to be controversial, I have reversed my action pending further discussion. 331dot (talk) 00:26, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * No way should an editor be able to go to a user page..... insult them or make any comment then remove it and subsequently get the user blocked for wishing to reply. Baiting and Block is not a precedent we should set-- Moxy 🍁 00:30, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * What evidence do you have of deliberate baiting on the part of SchoCat? 331dot (talk) 00:31, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * It's a precedent in behavior.....just imagine I go to your talk page insult you then remove it knowing there's going to be an edit war... because you (as most would) want to reply and because of that the user will be blocked. This is not what we want to see happen....in my view  the OP should be blocked for messing about in another user space.-- Moxy 🍁 00:37, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * It's clear to me this is much more complicated than it initially seemed to be to me, I'm going to hit the sack soon for the night and re look at this tomorrow; I apologize to all for causing difficulty. 331dot (talk) 00:43, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * If other reviewers wish to do something here, they may without waiting for me. 331dot (talk) 00:44, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I would suggest a WP:TROUT to both users for escalating the dispute into a five-way revert war, rather than taking it to a forum such as this one ealier. But there's no need for blocks over this. On balance, per Moxy's comments above, I'd also suggest that the user talk page comment by the OP and the reply should be restored to the user talk page if that's what Debresser really wants. Withdrawn or not, they obviously saw the comment and wished to reply to it, on what is their own talk page. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 00:55, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Agree no need for Block in this case. Both users have the same history and one more block probably won't make a difference here.-- Moxy 🍁 01:09, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, kudos to for withdrawing their earlier block. I think that was the right decision.  &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 01:13, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes   decision shows a willingness to see other people's point of view and great maturity in an administrator that is lacking in many talks.-- Moxy 🍁 01:21, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Debresser didn't just re-add SchroCat's comment. What Debresser did was re-add and at the same time reply to SchroCat's comment. It is understandable that a person would want to reply if they were called "arrogant". Bus stop (talk) 05:10, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I'll add it for you again,, and maybe you could take the time to read it more carefully. What SchroCat did was to call the actions of Debresser "arrogant". Still, never let a little thing like the truth get in the way of a bit of axe grinding.   Cassianto Talk  07:29, 26 February 2020 (UTC)


 * "The truth" encompasses the whole post,, which reads: "You call someone insolent for presuming you were shouting because you made an error in keeping your Capslock on, but you throw accusations of incompetence because someone erred in something they did? Can you see how that looks staggering arrogant, Debresser?" It was responded to. Simultaneously it was restored. Bus stop (talk) 11:29, 26 February 2020 (UTC)


 * I think the only thing I have to add is that it would be good if we all(including me) moved on from this and I think this will serve as a good reminder to us all to consider our edits carefully before making them. 331dot (talk) 08:22, 26 February 2020 (UTC)


 * It is a good thing I was unblocked, because I think I should have the right to say something before being blocked. I am familiar with the idea that a user should be able to remove a comment he regrets having made, as long as no other edit has resulted from it. Frankly speaking, I don't much agree with that rule, even if the reason is to deescalate a conflict, because the real way to deescalate a conflict is to think before posting. In any case, I can respect it on other talkpages. Not so however on my own user talkpage. I think it is my right to restore something that was posted on my talkpage. After all, I received a notification of it, so one can't say nothing happened.
 * What I probably should have done right away, and have done in the mean time, is restore is with  code, that is, as something that was strikken. I hope that compromise will satisfy all involved.
 * On a sidenote, I strongly reject the WP:BATTLEFIELD accusation, and regret that editors start WP:WIKILAWYERING as soon as something happens they don't like.
 * Also on a sidenote, I don't see the mandatory warning regarding this discussion on my talkpage.
 * And on a further sidenote, I agree with the editors above commending User:331dot for undoing his block when he saw that it was disputed. Debresser (talk) 15:07, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

Note, my own last revert was only made after it seemed that Gleamian2 had decided to abandon his objection: "Whatever. I'm out. See ya.", and I wouldn't have otherwise. Also note he had removed old discussion from the article's talk page that was also about this same subject. Appears unwilling to discuss rationally, and only interested in whitewashing the article. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon &bull; videos) 01:04, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
 * All of you, including consider yourself warned.    user didn't violate, but came close to, you both violated WP:3RR and can be blocked. Deacon, you didn't even try and join the discussion on the talkpage , but decided to avoid 3RR and just edit war. None of this is appropriate. Either contribute like civil editors, or if it continues, i'll be issuing blocks after the protection ends. --  Amanda  (aka DQ) 07:38, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Noted and thank you for the ping. For the record, and I absolutely should have been more clear about this on talk or in the edit summary, my last revert on that page was attempting to give a clean edit for reversion if it was decided to remove the content in question (the removals were also removing a ref we needed for other content on the page and a sentence that should be easy enough to source.  I didn't want the material we actually needed to get lost in a blind deletion. But again, I absolutely should have said something about that being my intent. Millahnna (talk) 07:53, 26 February 2020 (UTC)


 * OK wait a second. I just looked at my edit history on that page and I'm now confused as to how I 3rrd.  I first reverted the edit in its entirety because it broke something in the ref list and said such here.  Glemian did not respond to my concernes about breaking the code and reverted. After the content was removed again, I left the removal in place but edited to restore the reference that had been removed but is used elsewhere in the article here.  My final edit was the one I detailed above (and I have now dropped a note on the talk page to be more specific about my intent there) but here is is again for consistency.  I have 3 edits on the page and they aren't even flat reverts of Gleamian's ideas, save the first.  THe other two are both attempts to rescue a reference that was needed.  Millahnna (talk) 08:18, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, Deacon is in the talk page discussion. They absolutely participated. Has yet to specifically answer the questions. I'm concerned by this ANI; the facts don't seem to match the interpretations.  Millahnna (talk) 08:23, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * You are correct about the talkpage part, I missed that. That said, your correct you didn't BREAK 3RR, but you were on the very edge of breaking it. It required 4 reverts, and I must of missed that. Even then though it still doesn't justify this. Any revert, regardless of it being the same content or not, counts as 3RR. 21:42 Feb 24, 22:06 Feb 24, 07:10 Feb 25. These three reverts count towards your 3RR. Had you reverted again you would have broke it. -- Amanda  (aka DQ) 18:50, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Well shoot. I only did anything because of the broken ref in that first removal. I'm not sure what I could have done different to make sure the ref got retained then.  I tried keeping it both with and without the contested material but since that's being viewed as part of the content dispute, I guess I should have left it broken.  I'm really confuddled by this.

 * The content is a clear WP:BLP violation because it is stating allegations as fact in Wikipedia's voice. Even if the other issue of whether WP:BLPCRIME and "public figure" could be interpreted differently, that would require actually engaging in the discussion on the talk page or reopening the discussion at WP:BLPN, which already reached a consensus regarding the use of primary sources. Also, note that the filing editor is continuing to restore this content. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 22:49, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

Edit warring against long-standing WP:CONSENSUS. See talk page and its archives. Amaury • 04:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Ironically, Amaury who reported me for adding dual citizenship in the lead has his own nationality in his own profile as Mexican-American. oh... the hypocrisy. Anyway, my reasoning:


 * Bulgaria allows dual citizenship. As you can see |here. Nina Dobrev is a Bulgarian citizen by birth and has not renounced her citizenship. She even stated she resides for a time in the country every year. As you can see |here. She's a dual national. Consensus was made on faulty information, therefore needs to be updated. Quenreerer (talk) 22:43, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
 * She is stated not to be a big deal in Bulgaria, which is false. She is a big celebrity in her home country. Source: |here
 * There is no information that Dobrev ever rescinded her Bulgarian citizenship. And given Bulgarian citizenship law, as you can see in the link i posted above, the burden of proof is on proving Bodbrev not being a Bulgarian citizen, not that she is. As for WP:ETHNICITY, it doesn't apply here, since that is referring to a persons ethnicity, which is different from a persons citizenship. Example, we don't specify someone being a Hispanic and Latino Americans or african american in the lead, we just write American. Same applies here, only there is an issue of dual citizenship, which apparently is not a problem on any other article, besides this as I gave the example off Sienna Miller being of both British and American citizenship.Quenreerer (talk) 04:21, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
 * The talkpage is the place for that discussion, and it should take place without edit-warring in the meantime. An aggravating factor is the personal attack against Amaury.  Acroterion   (talk)   04:27, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Warning 2 (20.01.20)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:
 * Andrew Lancaster has recently flooded Talk:Goths with sections and arguments, and i have replied to most of them. The section most relevant to the reverts is at Talk:Goths.

Comments:
 * One month ago, Andrew Lancaster and i had an intense edit war at the article Germanic peoples. As a result, we were on 17 January 2020 both warned by Fram about future edit warring.


 * Edit warring continued, and on 20 January 2020, Dougweller protected the article for 2 weeks, and warned us both that future edit warring would result in a block.


 * As soon as the protection of Germanic peoples ended, Andrew Lancaster resumed his aggressive editing, entirely rewriting the lead at Germanic peoples. I refrained from any more editing warring, but instead tried to discuss the issues at the talk page. Several editors openly agreed with my concerns. Several other editors have only dared to express their concerns with me privately, as they are afraid of Andrew Lancaster. My attempts to resolve the situation at the talk page were ignored by Andrew Lancaster, who because of my refusal to engage in more editing warring, has exploited the situation to completely rewrite the article.


 * I significantly improved the article Goths in September 2019, and nominated it for WP:GA in December the same year. On 3 February 2020, Jens Lallensack began reviewing the article, stating that it was in good shape. Almost immediately afterwards, Andrew Lancaster becomes active at Talk:Goths, complaining about the quality of the article. Over the next days he starts making numerous drastic, unsourced and unhelpful edits to the article. He had never edited the article before noticing that i had put it up for for a GA review. This is clear WP:HOUNDING.


 * Andrew Lancaster's strategy of aggressive edit warring and flooding talk pages with incoherent walls of text paid off at Germanic peoples, and inspired by his success he is now utilizing the same disruptive strategy at Goths to cause me frustration. Andrew Lancaster's aggressive editing has already succeeded in driving numerous productive editors away from important articles, and i'm about there myself. This kind of behavior is harmful to Wikipedia. Krakkos (talk) 22:22, 26 February 2020 (UTC)


 * What edit war? An extremely dishonest summary by, who continues to surprise. Krakkos is the main editor. My edits have very detailed edit summaries, and come with lots of attempts to get pre-discussion on the talk page.
 * I suppose that technically revert 4 is a revert and maybe 5, But as the edsums show, with 4 I thought the book publication year "errors" of Krakkos would be accepted as straightforward mistakes! And 5 (cn template removal) was after a talk page discussion which showed there was no sourcing concern . However, it turns out these are not mistakes, and Krakkos is routinely making preferred sources look more recent than they are. Krakkos now wants disruption. I have seen a few cases before in the editing of Krakkos, but the pattern and the insistence did not strike me. As this became clear I did no more reverts after the 1st and started a talk page discussion . Very soon after Krakkos suddenly initiated drama and smokescreens, posting an extremely dishonest explanation on the talk page of an admin . I suppose this here is the next step.
 * As the talk pages of various articles show, Krakkos is desperately doing anything (such as this) to avoid meaningful discussion, and is consistently unable to show an empathy with our policy and norms, with the sources, or other editors. It makes things very messy. This is because Krakkos does not want to talk about things like why these publication years keep getting switched in the same direction, and only for authors Krakkos wants "promoted". How could I have expected Krakkos to say this was not a mistake?
 * Behind all the patterns in the edits one desire can be defined which is central at least to the recent cases I have contended with, and that is that Krakkos wants no mention of any of the newer more critical scholars such as Walter Goffart to be used in Wikipedia, and if they are to be used, Krakkos wants POV forking and walled gardens within articles and/or between articles, in order to quarantine them away from material based purely on sources with the "good old" theories with nice simple Germanic categories. Krakkos also can not explain how this can fit with our policies.
 * Further in the background is the whole career of Krakkos as a Wikipedian which mainly involves categorizing people and things by a language family (Slavic warriors, Germanic warriors, Germanic religion, etc.) The problem with the highly respected new criticism in the Germanic subject area is that people like Goffart are saying this way of categorizing has basic methodological problems. Categorising people as Germanic is VERY important to Krakkos!
 * I think the summary by Krakkos already makes it clear, anyway, that there are lots of things going on, but "edit war" does not quite capture it. --Andrew Lancaster (talk) 23:19, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * BTW this is not the first time Krakkos has tried to use this forum against me in recent months, and perhaps the past cases should also be looked at. In my opinion there is a pattern of deliberate efforts to make life awkward for other editors, and abuse the system's flexibilities against them. With Krakkos AGF is difficult, but if you manage it, the alternative is that Krakkos has an incredibly incompetent understanding of how most Wikipedians think we should work.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 23:32, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * He usually adopts these attrition tactics against those who get in his way, often with success. You got in his way, resisting his attempts to impose his grand ethnic scheme. Johnbod (talk) 23:46, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I recommend a month of full protection for our Goths article. This protection might be lifted just as soon as somebody opens an WP:RFC on the talk page (about any of the matters in dispute) and both User:Andrew Lancaster and User:Krakkos engage in a good-faith discussion there, without attacking one another. The filing of a report here represents a sort of escalation from the earlier dispute about Germanic peoples which led to two weeks of full protection on 20 January by User:Doug Weller. As Doug said the last time around, . It would be logical to block both of you at this time, but you have no prior blocks so it may be worth offering a last chance. Reading the talk discussions, it is hard to feel sympathy for either party ('aggressive', 'drastic' and 'incoherent' from one of the parties and 'dishonest' from the other). You aren't supposed to be solving your problems here, you are supposed to be solving them yourselves with RfCs and other methods. EdJohnston (talk) 01:31, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * but is this an edit war at all? I certainly agree that this is not the place for the discussion, and I have tried incredibly hard to maintain some level of functioning talk page discussion, and have not given up. The sudden rush of efforts to depict me as edit warring when I discovered the systematic falsification of source information is obviously a strategy trying to make that impossible, so certainly nothing to do with my approach. And not for the first time. Discussion should be happening somewhere else. Locking the article up is fine by me, but honestly in this particular case there is a history of clear community consensus and actions having no impact on the long term editing patterns. I believe:
 * The history of Krakkos needs to be looked at more. I think sometimes we need to go beyond saying that "dishonest" is a word to avoid. Other editors over the years, including me, have tried hard to AGF, and developed similar concerns about such systematic patterns of problems.
 * Discussion on the talk page about such edits as the ones mentioned above could also benefit from having more experienced editors give comment there. Many of the positions Krakkos takes there are problematic in a clear-cut way (insisting on wrong publication years would be justified how?), and so participation by others would make it clear that this is not a simple POV dispute between two individuals. See the comment of Johnbod.
 * Concerning Germanic peoples I have summarized some of the extraordinary events here, but note that bit by bit the article has been improved by me. (Krakkos says it has been ruined, but refuses to explain how. No one else has supported this position. I believe other editors all agree the article is improved.)
 * ...But in terms of what this forum is for, do you say I was edit warring? Please help me out with how you and others would define the above described edits as edit warring, and I'll try to take that one board. Not all editing is an edit war though, obviously, so can you explain your remarks about potentially blocking me? Let me know any advice about edits I should not have done and why? NOTE: I didn't see my edits of yesterday as particularly controversial, and despite everything else the reaction of Krakkos surprised me.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 07:21, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * As soon as the two-week protection imposed by Dougweller at Germanic peoples expired, Andrew Lancaster resumed edit warring. I refrained from further warring, and Andrew Lancaster thus rewrote the entire article. In the meantime, i have been working to improve the article Goths. Andrew Lancaster has now exported the edit warring to Goths, an article which he has NEVER edited before. I'm not the one primarily responsible for the escalation. Krakkos (talk) 07:31, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * ...BTW, Krakkos started this complaint supposedly about edit warring but then did a new real revert (which my edit was not) of one of the edits described above. No discussion about the concerns with this paragraph I raised in detail, in this case, and in past editing. (On Germanic peoples, relatively uncontroversial sentences by Krakkos had up to 14 long footnotes, all with long un-needed quotes not relevant to the sentence, often identical or near-identical.) So for Krakkos it is always only a question of whatever you think you can get away with, and this edit warring complaint was only part of a strategy of constantly working on the edge of community rules. Krakkos very rarely accepts any advice or gets into any constructive discussion. --Andrew Lancaster (talk) 07:40, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * In the last few days you have flooded Talk:Goths with more than ten sections and huge amounts of text. I have engaged in "constructive discussion" in almost all of them, as can easily be verified. Please stop with these misrepresentations of the facts. Krakkos (talk) 10:43, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Like this one which is still open, unbelievably? Normally you do not expect other editors, even in a dispute, to be so insistent that even a wrong publication date must stay, and that if someone tries to change it, they will claim an edit war. Normally also, even in a dispute, constructive editors might even say thanks when their interlocutor says that a statement with lots of footnotes is not controversial and can do with a simpler footnote. In your case, this too, is brought into an edit warring claim, and so on. I guess it is good that since this discussion here started you have answered a couple of talk page issues today but these are not really exemplary discussions either. You never come to a clear point, and you insist on even the most obvious problems like the publishing dates and your argument that a dictionary article not mentioning something is all we need to justify not mentioning large parts of the field. I am really not wanting to edit this article, but you make it hard to avoid by taking such irrational positions. (And if not me, someone else will eventually change the article if you insist on such things. That is why I keep advising you to aim for something "stable" and lasting which means in agreement with other editors, and more sensitive to the concerns of others.)--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 12:26, 27 February 2020 (UTC)


 * As the GA reviewer, this fight sadly makes it impossible for me to finish the review right now. Please note that 1) content never gets perfect and 2) opinions differ largely what to consider best. If there is no clear error or violation against Wikipedia policies, the main author is usually is given the last word. I would like to give it one last try and make the following suggestion: finishes listing his suggestions to the talk page. When done, he promises to stay away from the article, and I will check and take those points into account for my GA review. Could you both life with that? --Jens Lallensack (talk) 18:05, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I think there is some confusion about the situation, coming from the dramatic style of description my interlocutor likes to use.
 * Krakkos has been changing the article quite a lot before any of this, and I think Krakkos and I would agree that much of what is being done is really needed.
 * This means the article was not really ready for GA, and I am presuming Krakkos is not really used to GA norms in that respect? So it was always going to involve some delays. This has nothing to do with me, or any "edit war".
 * Indeed I am trying to mainly just comment on the talk page. OTOH there are policy-related concerns, which Krakkos should give some priority to, and I presume that is also something for a GA reviewer to watch. Hopefully Krakkos will not continue to react in pointy or stubborn ways to that. Indeed some third party advice on basic policies such as WP:RS, publication dates in citations, etc etc, could be helpful.
 * At this stage I see no "killer" disagreement which needs a special community RFC. There are lots of smaller issues which could eventually go to WP:RSN for example if they don't get clearer up. A background theme to watch is bias towards one author, which sometimes seems to be getting worse.
 * Actually the article is improving, bit by bit! I just wish it were not so hard to discuss every little concern.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 18:19, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you yet again for your constructive suggestions. I'm sorry for the frustration this has caused you. I'm perfectly willing to comply with this solution. Krakkos (talk) 18:33, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * It is good to see Andrew Lancaster and Krakkos having a discussion here. But if this report is closed with no action, we should have some assurance that the previous disputes won't just keep going. For example, how are the two of you going to decide the question of 'wrong publication dates'? Will User:Jens Lallensack try to resolve that himself? And User:Andrew Lancaster has said With no RfCs, and with Andrew and Krakkos on opposite sides of so many issues, how will you gather and summarize opinions on the disputed matters? Will the two or you agree to wait for consensus? If so, how will a consensus be determined? If you had said 'hold RfCs' we would at least have some idea. EdJohnston (talk) 01:12, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, yes the article may or may not have future problems, but is/was there an edit war, and if not then is this the correct place to discuss? The fact is that Krakkos came here with many complaints including that I should not edit on the article because I do not have a past record there, and that I have posted too many things on the talk page, but I still see no two-party edit war unless you define edit warring so broadly that you literally accept almost any editing is edit warring? As far as normal tasks for this noticeboard, I do see a case for a pattern of inappropriate abuse of it by Krakkos.
 * But I am interested to hear any proposal about RFCs, or different ways or working. Please explain any such ideas you have. I presume you looked at the examples given by Krakkos? (But that direction of discussion would be more suitable for the article talk page?) I am not being sarcastic here. I can surely always do better.
 * In case you did not check the original complaint independently though, it is very twisted. I did some small rounds of carefully explained edits which were largely reverted very rapidly, and with misleading edsums (E.g., which I suppose Krakkos counted out as 3 clear reverts), and then I stopped and focussed on talk, and then Krakkos started forum-shopping to try to keep me away from the article. So there were no rounds of tit-for-tat editing from me, except in the two special cases I explained above, one of which I honestly understood (at that time) as a typing error or something similar. So I am apparently missing something.
 * The article talk page could certainly do with some more experienced editors giving considered feedback, preferably on an on-going basis, because there will be on-going problems when Krakkos is interested in a topic. Of course there can be problems when even obvious publication date concerns are (still) impossible to resolve on the talk page. See the post of Johnbod above. My point about an RFC was only that I don't know of any honest question which an RFC would help right now, and in this respect it perhaps helps to look at the history of Germanic peoples mentioned above which involved the use of tendentiously defined "surprise" RFCs. ( Summary.) Such formal steps are not always neutral and can be "gamed". OTOH you seem not to have noticed that I mentioned one major issue that is on-going might eventually be addressed at WP:RSN. But even then the main reason to need to go there would be behavioural, as per Johnbod, and clearly not necessarily best described as an "edit war" or a real policy misunderstanding. It would just be one possible example of the need to go through many steps to get even simple corrections made, on anything. I don't see any simple formal solution - only a case where discussion is awkward. Lots of WP:IDNHT etc. on the talk page, but that is not what this noticeboard normally discusses I guess.
 * Sorry for the long response!--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 08:46, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
 * BTW I hope noticeboard commenters consider the diffs given in the "Warnings" section? (Hint: there were no warnings, so diffs from old cases have apparently been filled in.) As mentioned above, deliberately "tricky" patterns of behavior, and inappropriate abuse of this noticeboard should be considered. In the meantime, to be clear, I am open to clear contextually-relevant feedback on anything I should do, or not do, but for now I am just doing my best according to my own judgement. (To be honest though, editors doing things like faking publications dates don't usually get as much of a hearing here as this one? I guess there are some assumptions being made?)--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 11:41, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Now that the 24 hour limit on 3RR at Goths has expired, Andrew Lancaster is back at it with his reverting. He does not appear to be abiding with Jens Lallensack's compromise solution. He is removing, against consensus, a citation from Professor Joshua J. Mark, which was added by me.

Why is he continuing with this behavior one might ask? Because it works. At Germanic peoples, Andrew Lancaster flagrantly violated 3RR, and got away with a warning. After continuing the edit war, he simply received another warning, and the article was protected for two weeks. As soon as that protection expired, he escalated the edit warring even further. I refrained from edit warring and tried to resolve the situation at the talk page, and my concerns were shared by several other editors. Andrew Lancaster meanwhile flooded the talk with dozens of long sections, thereby creating confusion and discouraging other editors from participating in the discussion. My concerns were ignored and the article was completely rewritten to its present poor state. The lesson learned from the Germanic peoples dispute is clear and simple: Edit warring, stonewalling and gaslighting works.

Andrew Lancaster is applying this lesson flawlessly at Goths. As soon as the GA-review on Goths started, he began complaining about the quality of the article, and made fundamental rewrites of key parts of the article. He had never edited the article before becoming aware that i had nominated it for GA. This is obviously WP:HOUNDING. In the last few days, he has started more than a dozen new sections at Talk:Goths, posting long walls of text containing the same arguments and attacks over and over again. He has yet again violated 3RR.

Because of his habit of completely rewriting quality articles, and apparent immunity from sanctions, many productive members of the community are afraid of him. His editing style has already successfully driven away a number of long-time productive contributors. As long Wikipedia continues to reward his edit warring (as happened at Germanic peoples), he will grow even bolder, and additional productive editors will be driven away. Something needs to be done about this, but adding a protection template (as happened at Germanic peoples), will only give him more encouragement and make the situation even worse. Krakkos (talk) 14:31, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Result: Both parties are warned for edit warring. From here on, if either of you makes any change at all on the Goths article without a prior consensus on the talk page, you may be blocked. Both of you are free to make arguments on the Talk page. I would particularly like to see an RfC on the issue of source dating, since changes of source publication date were made in three of the diffs cited above (#2, 4 and 7). If Krakkos's changes of the publication dates are indeed an example of poor behavior, as claimed by Andrew on Talk ('insistence on this silliness'), then Andrew should find it easy to get support from others in an RfC. EdJohnston (talk) 15:22, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I will work with any ruling of course. (I was already avoiding the article itself, though such good faith efforts now appear to be pointless.) But my request before for advice about whether I did any "edit warring" was quite honest, and I would like a good faith reply. One obvious reason is that I don't want future misunderstandings.
 * Another honest reason, which I hope will not be taken as argumentative, is that, in all honestly, it looks like Krakkos just had to say there were reverts, place any diff at all, and that was enough. Obviously I would think that you might also be interested in making sure you have an answer to that. BTW, I think the post of Krakkos above is, well, yes, dishonest in many ways. I know most of us can't believe someone would shamelessly place a diff which does not lead to what they say it leads to, but, can you please just check and help me understand?
 * As context BTW, I am quite an transparent editor, constantly explaining my ideas, and I suppose Krakkos also knows very well that I've been editing many Germanic related articles for years - far more actual content and source editing than Krakkos who normally edit categories, see also lists and such. The Goths and Germanic peoples articles themselves were big projects for a rainy day, and the rainy day came. There are also some other connected articles. Krakkos clearly moved to Goths because of the work I started on Germanic peoples. He knows very well it is a related article.
 * Concerning RFCs I guess you are just saying you don't care what I tried to explain about RFCs not being obviously useful. I am disappointed in that part of your comment. We are dealing here IMHO with an editor who makes masses and masses of small edits to footnotes, categories, extra words here and there, key words removed, distorting what authors, works and fields have published. It is very difficult for any editor to follow, even though many editors have noticed this, and so RFCs would be about what? A footnote? Please look at the talk page of Goths? In that case I have spent hours typing out what sources said and tabulating them to show the distortions. That is for a small selection of sentences! How to work like this for the whole article? For that matter please look at the long term history of the talk page of Krakkos. I will refer again to the comment of Johnbod above. --Andrew Lancaster (talk) 16:06, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
 * TLDR version. Block or no block, registering the events correctly seems important, especially given the wording chosen by : I really feel the whole case has been posted based on diffs which, when you look at them, do not show edit wars, and strikingly often do not match their descriptions at all. (Also in the comment texts.) I am asking for some type of cross-check of the evidence, based on my concern. To me the whole case appears to be triggered by talk page discussions, specifically two about wrong publication dates (still in the article) and new posts showing source misrepresentation (still in the article). Immediately before posting here, this editor demanded I should stop all activity related to that article because they have been editing it longer. and that is also a repeated topic in comments above. The noticeboard is, it seems, being used as a tool, and the diffs were not looked at, or at least that is my honest impression for now. This editor has also been criticized for using this noticeboard wrongly in the past. I would be very happy to be shown that I am mistaken.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 07:32, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

IP is repeatedly altering the lede and trying to add questionable sources. Alexbrn (talk) 07:57, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * This is a false claim. I will explain in a minute. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.161.148.196 (talk) 08:07, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * That fourth 'revert' never took place. NorthBySouthBaranof wrote: "Neither of these are reliable sources for facts." That editor intended to remove my sources but accidently removed all of my other edits as well. I did not revert NorthBySouthBaranof's edit. The edit intended by NorthBySouthBaranof is still there (removal of my sources). Rather than reverting NorthBySouthBaranof I have put my sources on the talkpage.


 * Please investigate User:Alexbrn's behaviour, accusing me of spamming and instantly reverting without explaining. Now also puts in false 3RR reports. Alexbrn is removing reliable sources and pushing a view. The lead is properly sourced however, none of the sources claim that there is no evidence. 31.161.148.196 (talk) 08:12, 3 March 2020 (UTC)


 * The system shows you (for the fifth time in an hour) editing the lede to try and force your edit. The system does not lie. Alexbrn (talk) 08:16, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * The above statement by Alexbrn, clearly trying to trick an admin into banning me, should be enough to investigate this user. The reverts where Alexbrn and I are involved do not exceed three. No other editors are involved. That so called 'fith 'revert' was not a revert either. An author removed Canada because it was not in the given source. I did not change that either. A revert is me putting something back when it was removed on purpose. This only happend between me and Alexbrn. There is no dispute with multiple editors here. 31.161.148.196 (talk) 08:23, 3 March 2020 (UTC)


 * For the record I have only moved the order of sources in the lead. Alexbrn seems to be claiming that I have removed them . I'm not sure what the problem is, other than me using a public wifi. Could it be prejudice? 31.161.148.196 (talk) 08:33, 3 March 2020 (UTC)


 * - the IP did indeed perform four reverts, and is hereby warned for breaking the 3RR and edit warring. However, I notice that they have desisted from edit warring on this article since the report here, and they are engaging in a discussion with the OP at Talk:Cannabidiol, so I don't think any further action is required at this point. If the IP resumes the edit war, then they will be blocked. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 10:00, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I have reverted only three times. Alexbrn claims I reverted five times. Please check again or explain how you have come up with the number of four (rather than three or five). 31.161.148.196 (talk) 10:05, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * This was not a revert, it was in response to this . As you can see they are from the same author but cover a different subject. Rather than removing only my sources, the user accidently removed all of my edits. 31.161.148.196 (talk) 10:10, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I never claimed you reverted 5 times (you made 5 distinct edits). As says, you reverted 4 times. Saying a revert isn't a revert because you somehow knew the other editor didn't mean what they did is not a very convincing argument. There are very few contexts in which repeat reversion is justified, and guesswork about intent ain't one of them! Alexbrn (talk) 10:13, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * The other user had nothing to do with this and their edit has nothing to do with your report. There is no guesswork. It says literally in the edit summary that the user was removing my sources and why. The reason why is further explained here . Please stop ignoring the evidence. 31.161.148.196 (talk) 10:25, 3 March 2020 (UTC)


 * If there was an edit war, please note that it started with the user calling me a spammer in a blatant revert . I do not think there was an edit war since nobody voilated 3RR, but the user should at least be warned for this personal attack. If you don't then there is no guarantee that the user won't approach people differently in the future. 31.161.148.196 (talk) 10:21, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Alexbrn is correct. The four links above are clear reverts of the edits of two different editors. Whether you think the reverts are justified or not, and whether they remove text or simply move it around the article, is irrelevant. It is still an edit war. Rather than attempt to re-litigate this, please continue discussing the best way forward and finding consensus on the talk page. Thanks &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 10:37, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

NorthBySouthBaranof LITERALLY wrote in the edit summary: "Neither of these are reliable sources for facts". I did not revert that. If I reverted their edit than how is it posibble that the part they removed is no longer in the article? Would you have come to the same conclusion if I was not on a public wifi network? 31.161.148.196 (talk) 10:54, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, the edit summary you link above is not a personal attack - the "spam" comment is referring to the website, leafly.com, which most likely doesn't constitute a WP:Reliable source, particularly for the high standards required for a medical article. It doesn't look like a comment directed at you personally. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 10:39, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

My source was a legal source that has nothing to do with health. It clearly was a personal attack, but since it was against an IP it probably does not matter. By not warning the user you are only encouraging his agressive style of reverting. No reason to be polite to an IP user, right? 31.161.148.196 (talk) 10:54, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Link to attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page:

Comments:

For at least ten years we have created an article each year describing the current Australian bushfire season, which peaks in summer, but begins and ends in various parts of Australia at different dates. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology has a graphic showing this here. Note that they show the season ending in autumn, which in Australia runs from March to May.

With this edit an IP editor changed the end date to March 2020, giving the explanation that as the fires had ceased, the season could hardly be said to be "ongoing".. This argument resonated with me and when the edit was reverted, I changed it back to March 2020 on the grounds that no user had a crystal ball.

Discussion ensued - probably best to read though it to get an idea of the arguments advanced and sources quoted - and it emerged that we had an official bushfire season extending until May and that we had used the same end date in the template box for each of the ten previous articles in the series, always well in advance of the end date, and on at least two occasions nine months before May. There was none of this "ongoing" speculation. This looked like a longstanding consensus to me. Ten years is pretty good around here. See the list here. (Scroll right down to the bottom to get it in a readable format with bolding and everything.)

On that basis I changed the end date to reflect longstanding consensus, noting this in my edit summary. Previously I had supported the IP editor's view that the bushfires were out and consequently the season was over in March, but after researching the situation and presenting my results I felt that if we'd always used May as the end date in the template, we should continue to do so. No other editor could advance a reason to change, but Bidgee wanted to edit war over this. There was some discussion, and that's where it stands as I write these words. I'm done. --Pete (talk) 04:35, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

Comments:

Unfortunately, good-faith attempts to engage with the editor at Talk:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 have not been effective. Symphony Regalia is a newer editor but is aware of the violations of 3RR and does not recognize that a different pattern of behavior would have yielded a different result. (There is a claim that other editors are "also" in violation of 3RR, but none is.) This seems to be headed toward WP:NOTHERE. Dekimasu よ! 10:40, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry I was probably too dismissive and insulting of him initially, but ultimately I don't think changing my behaviour would have significantly changed the outcome. Reverting to your preferred content as if your reasons are automatically right and other people's objections are automatically erroneous were never a good sign, and if they had continued editing in this fashion they would probably have been blocked sooner or later. Given their editing history and username I would suspect that the user is a teenager, which explains some of it. Dekimasu, I really admire your restraint in dealing and with trying to reason with him, but he seemed to completely ignore you for the most part. Hemiauchenia (talk) 12:18, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

Mclarenfan17 (talk) 09:40, 6 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Administrators also need to watch the article for severe OWNership behaviour. I have walked away from the article after Mclarenfan17 called me "an arrogant, entitled know-it-all" and not "a decent human being". I don't put up with shit like that from anyone, particularly an article OWNer who is intent on driving away others. - SchroCat (talk) 09:44, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
 * You're the one who referred to other editors' comments as "dross" and "nonsense". You're the one who sees nothing wrong with his attitude. You're the one with the bad attitude towards other editors. You're the one who thinks he can't be taken to ANI. You're the one who has resorted to foul language. I'm not going to apologise for calling out WP:UNCIVIL behaviour. Mclarenfan17 (talk) 09:54, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I called people's comments dross, not questioned whether they were "a decent human being". And please try not to lie: I did not say I cannot be taken to ANI, I said that if you thought my comment was "worthy of ANI, you'll find out it's a long way off". If you keep misrepresenting the actions of others, it's no surprise you can't see the flaws in your own approach in telling someone to be civil and, in the same comment say they are "an arrogant, entitled know-it-all" and not "a decent human being". That's a really sub-standard and shitty approach to dealing with people. Yes, it will fuck people off, and yes, people will fuck off pages, but as you seem intent on driving people away from the page so you can continue OWNership. Your deep-seated ownership is the reason I have done so little on the article. It's a shame you can't honestly see what your own actions are, or the repercussions of those actions. - SchroCat (talk)
 * I don't know what it means where you come from, but where I come from, "dross" is somewhere between "trash" and "shit". All those editors wanted to do was improve the article, and then you blew in there and dumped on everything they had to say when they didn't immediately agree with you. No decent person does that. Mclarenfan17 (talk) 10:50, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Obviously I'm not a decent person. I'm "an arrogant, entitled know-it-all" and not "a decent human being". (And no, it started when one editor tried to keep stamping their personal preference to introduce the serial comma, despite it not being in the the article. All that individual does is carpet-bomb articles with commas, regardless of the fact they don't grasp the difference between the varieties of English). Still. I'm "an arrogant, entitled know-it-all" to point out the flaws in their and your MoS breaches, and not "a decent human being" to point out just how poor the edits were. How nasty of me. And how nice of you to tell me to be civil and and say I'm not "a decent human being". At some point your hypocrisy-monitor may kick into action and you'll realise just how fucking crass your comments and actions are. Mind you, I don't see any such enlightenment from any of your previous actions in driving people off articles here and in the motor-racing sphere, but your time will come when telling people they are and "an arrogant, entitled know-it-all" and not "a decent human being" will bite you in the arse, and my sympathy levels will not even flicker. I'm off. I know just how much you love to have The Last Word, so the floor is all yours to give us the depth of your wisdom... - SchroCat (talk) 11:09, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
 * At least in the English speaking regions I'm familiar with, it means something trivial, or unimportant. A quick dictionary consultation shows it also means the scum that forms on molten metal due to oxidation. Making up your own inflammatory definitions doesn't really help anyone.

 * ''I'm "an arrogant, entitled know-it-all" to point out the flaws in their and your MoS breaches, and not "a decent human being" to point out just how poor the edits were.

My problem isn't that you tried to point out the issue. My problem is in the way you did it, unless there's a policy out there that I don't know about which says that calling someone's comments "dross" is acceptable. You didn't "point out just how poor the edits were", you likened them to "trash" or "shit". And then you went on the offensive the moment someone called you out for being a bully. The fact that you can't even conceive of doing things differently, much less better, just proves what I said was true. Mclarenfan17 (talk) 12:01, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

Week long edit pushing to revert passage to a presumably preferred style. Previous warnings and contrib history along with lack of willingness to participate in WP:BRD implies an attitude of WP:NOTHERE. Two good faith discussions opened on the article's Talk have been made and were ineffective. The first went unresponded, the second saw a response but conversation abruptly ended after my latest response. An assumption that it meant a possible agreement were eschewed when they reverted to the passage they've been pushing for again anyways days after, with no attention to the issues that were brought up nor any further response to the Talk.

I was recently reported for this, but I want to point out that the editor who reported me failed to point out that he was actively involved in the editing dispute himself, did not point out the violations from the other side of the dispute that I am doing now, and additionally did not point out that the person he was siding with (Hemiauchenia) personally insulted me and called me insulting names multiple times in edit summaries, on the talk page, and on this very noticeboard itself. I attempted to engage on the talk page to come to an agreement, and Hemiauchenia's very first comment before he started reverting was "... You talk good game for somebody with less than 10 edits across your entire account history. 'Dereliction of duty'? Give a break. what's next, proclaiming yourself persecuted like Gallileo?" . I do not believe he attempted to engage with me in good faith at all before he started reverting my edits over and over. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Symphony Regalia (talk • contribs) 08:04, 7 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Perhaps I was too antagonistic to you at the beginning, but your subsequent behaviour shows that you have deserved every word. To summarise what actually happened Symphony Regalia was engaging in repeated WP:POVNAME pushing, insisting that the term "China Virus" was a widely used term for SARS-CoV-2, when neither me and agreed with this, with both of us agreeing that this was a misleading use of sources. Symphony Regalia repeatedly re-added the content after it was removed so it could be discussed on the talk page, as part of the widely followed BOLD,_revert,_discuss_cycle. Thereby engaging in WP:OWN. (Symphony Regalia was blocked for 31 hours for edit warring). The article is currently high traffic getting around ~ 60,000 views a day due to the current outbreak, and so therefore removal of low quality information is a priority. Subsequent edit summaries by this user have accused me of being an agent of the Chinese Government and attemption to "censor" information, completely ignoring the valid arguments against his position on the talk page. Attempts were made to compromise with the editor, including removal of the informal name section of the article entirely, which was subsequently adopted. It's very clear that the users case is completely baseless and is merely seeking to use the Administrators noticeboard to exact revenge. Hemiauchenia (talk) 14:26, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
 * – No new reverts by Hemiauchenia since 5 March. The previous AN3 complaint about this dispute was already dealt with. If User:Symphony Regalia continues to claim on talk pages (and in edit summaries) that others are trying to censor the article on behalf of the Chinese government they are risking a block.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Diff discussing why he made these edits. He responded on my talk and I explained how the relevant WikiProject guidelines allow for multiple styles, not just his preferred one, and his response was "lol". I asked him if he's willing to self-revert and post to talk and he ignored that, proceeding to add unsourced information (which he sourced after I asked him to provide one) and he then added it in his preferred style, rather than the existing style of the page. It seems obvious to me that he's not interested in either discussing to seek consensus nor respecting existing styles that he doesn't like but will keep on reverting to whatever he feels like. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:28, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

Comments:


 * - the first diff presented above is not a revert, is is a new WP:BOLD change to the article. As such there was no violation of the 3RR on either side as both reverted three times, not counting 's fresh revert today, which was outside the 24-hour window. hasn't edited the article since this notice was filed, so it doesn't seem like protection is required at the moment, but if this dispute resurfaces, it is vital that both parties discuss it on the talk page and seek outside opinions if necessary, because even reverting up to three times is still edit warring.  &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 13:14, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
 * , I'm confused by "no violation... [but] reverting up to three times a day is still edit warring". Which one is it? ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 14:52, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
 * what I mean is that there was no violation of the three-revert rule, which (if you'll forgive my reminding you, as the second-most prolific editor on the project) is an explicit bright-line rule saying that the fourth revert in 24 hours is a violation. Neither you nor CMR violated that, and we usually wouldn't apply sanctions when there's no 3RR violation. But as the 3RR page notes, "The rule is not an entitlement to revert a page a specific number of times" and there's no doubt that an edit war did take place and that both yourself and CMR were active participants. Please just discuss next time, and seek outside opinions, even if you think you're obviously the one in the right! &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 15:14, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
 * , I posted here because WP:3RR states "any user may report edit warring with or without 3RR being breached". It seems clear to me from our interaction (tho I am obviously biased as a participant) that I am willing to discuss and appeal to guidelines whereas CMR is not and doesn't particularly care about WP:BRD or attempting to reach consensus. I figured that this would be a good place to solicit someone else, not that this is explicitly an example of contravening the bright line. Am I wrong? ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:19, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
 * well the user has not been active on Wikipedia at all since this report was opened, so it's not as if they're ignoring the whole thing and refusing to engage. And it seems from the discussion that took place on your talk page, that they were quite willing to engage in discussion on the formatting of the track listing while the dispute was still ongoing yesterday morning. The last comment in that thread offered a rationale for their edits (consistency with other albums by the same artist), a comment you didn't actually respond to. Your final comment was a complaint that they had "undone" your work, and saying that they had violated 3RR when actually I don't think they had. If someone is being obviously disruptive, posting nonsense, or breaking civility policy, that would be a different story. But I don't see it here. It just looks like a straight content dispute, and not one with a clear-cut answer, and this isn't the venue for resolving that. Cheers &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 15:54, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk:Roadside_Picnic # Annihilation (Doctorhawkes initiated TP discussion, which was a brief exchange, ending it on pretty categorical note.)

Comments:

The editor reverts a meaningful and relevant edit backed up by valid and relevant sources, claiming three different reasons each time a previous came up short, ending a relatively brief and unproductive discussion with "I don't intend to do anything else besides revert anything that isn't properly reffed", where he clearly imposes himself as an authority for "proper refs" in this case. From that point on, the 24h time-table regarding "3/4RR" became obviously irrelevant, as I could have continued to test his determination to pursue his threat on minute to minute basis, but I think this is a better option than making the circus out of that article.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  06:10, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi. I don't have much to add that hasn't already been said. It's clear there are many refs supplied. I don't believe any of them show, as claimed, any "cultural influence". I believe taking a bunch references that talk about similarities and trying to make them into something else is WP:OR or WP:SYN. I'm happy to abide by whatever others think and thank User:Santasa99 for bringing matters to a head. Doctorhawkes (talk) 06:24, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Like Doctorhawkes, i wouldn't mind summoning WP:3O or any editor previously involved with the article willing to check this matter up - i was reluctant with an idea to come here in the first place, but after all, it was editor who, beside being quite categorical in his reverts and rejection of my edits and reasoning, in a way suggested exactly this course of action in his last statement on TP. Prior to that, I suggested leaving my edits for a time being, unless some semblance of consensus for eventual removal could be registered, I would also accept that even if it's just one more voice added to his, but to no avail.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  07:00, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning:

I stated my reasons for reverting to the last stable version in my edit summaries. In addition I reminded him of WP:BRD. Pigsonthewing has acknowledged that he has read these edit summaries in his replies, but he prefers to edit war rather than discussing why he thinks the new edit should be supported. Only after his fourth revert did he open a discussion, which almost exclusively consists of personal attacks. There is no reason to suppose he will desist from edit warring till such time as consensus becomes clear, and since his version is the new one, that burden clearly lies on him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Debresser (talk • contribs) 20:37, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

Comments:

Rank hypocrisy from Debresser, who has reverted as much as I have, and who cites WP:BRD while failing to abide by it. The first diff they give above is not a revert. Unlike them, I started a discussion - which contains no personal attacks - on the article's talk page. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:46, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Contrary to you, my reverts where not within a one-day period. I first reverted the original edit, and only after you came along a day later and started edit warring without discussing, did I revert again. Please also note, that I did not revert your fourth edit. In the mean time I did this, more than 12 hours after I filed this report
 * And well you did that you opened a discussion. That is precisely what you should have done, but without the 4 reverts in a one-day period. You should have awaited consensus, not edit war. Debresser (talk) 21:05, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

Debresser has just reverted me there again; that's his fourth revert in a row (the first three of which were, contrary to the claim above, well within a one-day period), and by being four minutes over 24 hours since his last, may be an attempt to game 3RR.

As we've established on the article talk page, the text he's removing is both correct and well-cited. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:10, 11 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Three reverts is allowed, please review WP:3RR. My fourth revert was made more than 24 hours after the last, all the more so not within 24 hours of the previous reverts. This forum is not for the content issue itself, so please don't tell me what you think you have established on the talkpage.

In any case, I want to add that Pigsonthewing has serious civility issues, and posts many personal attacks. That despite my repeated requests to be civil and remove personal attacks. Together with the edit warring, this makes a clear picture of an editor who needs a temporary forced retirement from Wikipedia.
 * 1) "as amusing as any indicator of either blind cluelessness or wilful ignorance can be"

 * 3) "I really don't appreciate you making damaging edits regarding a quote basic issue that you clearly do not understand" Debresser (talk) 13:53, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I would have just blocked both for the same duration, but I am involved with one of the parties.--Ymblanter (talk) 13:53, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * @Ymblanter And why would you block two editors for the same amount of time, when one of them has violated 3RR and the other not, one of them has a serious civility issues and makes personal attacks and the other not? Debresser (talk) 13:58, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I would have blocked for edit-warring, not specifically for 3RR. Both of you have been here enough to know rhat edit-warring is not a valid dispute resolution avenue.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:00, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * You're basically saying that the rules are stricter for veteran editors. Not something I think we should endorse, since that would leave us without any clear rules. The reason we have rules, to show us the red lines that may not be crossed. Otherwise, what is the reason of having rules in the first place? Debresser (talk) 14:04, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * As requested I have reviewed WP:3RR, where I found this text: Fourth reverts just outside the 24-hour period may also be taken as evidence of edit-warring. HTH. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:17, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, may. In any case, to do so you would need a bad faith assumption. You can check when I logged on today and started editing. Debresser (talk) 14:26, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Can either User:Pigsonthewing or User:Debresser propose a way of resolving the dispute? For instance by following one of the steps listed in WP:Dispute resolution? An RfC is something you might consider. This looks like a fight over the exact wording that would be used to describe the result of a court decision. Pigsonthewing wants the words included and Debresser opposes that wording. PotW's first addition of this wording was not a revert, and after that I only see a total of three reverts. I assume that PotW realizes, in spite of his comment above, that even content that is 'correct and well-cited' also needs editor consensus to be included in an article. EdJohnston (talk) 16:57, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * User:Pigsonthewing is certainly correct on the substance of the edit, and User:Debresser certainly wrong. But it is never at all easy to get himn to accept that. Johnbod (talk) 17:19, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * The solution is for the correct, cited wording to be restored [update: as indeed I see now that Johnbod had already and kindly done], in line with our BLP policy, and Debresser to stop - or to be stopped from - edit warring to remove it, based on his fundamentally flawed misunderstanding of the basic nature of the judgement to which it refers. The latter is not an issue on which there can be compromise, any more than we can compromise by saying that the Earth is half flat, or that the moon landings only half happened. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 18:14, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Debresser's latest edit to the talk shows how little he has grasped the issue] (if anyone doesn't understand why - see Potw's reply). Johnbod (talk) 19:08, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I think the opposite is true. In any case, I find it rather inappropriate that you restored a controversial edit without even considering that there is an ongoing discussion. Not to mention, that you have been against anything I do for over 10 years, which hardly makes you objective. Debresser (talk) 21:02, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Not quite 10 years, or everything. But I'm also "against" most things Potw does too, so objective enough! Johnbod (talk) 04:04, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I am fine with dispute resolution, but only after Johnbod's revert is undone. Talk about escalating... Debresser (talk) 21:02, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Please note that Jphnbod was reported here himself just now... Debresser (talk) 10:55, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * That report is clearly bogus. In any case, please avoid making such ad hominem comments.  Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:30, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * The parties are lecturing each other about good behavior while each one has a block log as long as your arm. I prefer that another admin close this one. For the record I note that Debresser continued to revert while this report was open. Formally speaking, nobody broke 3RR though it is a long-term edit war. The apparent lack of interest (from either party) in a negotiated solution does impress me. Debresser (above) will accept dispute resolution once Johnbod's edit is undone, i.e. as soon as the article is reverted to the version he prefers. Debresser's edit summary for his last revert was: Nobody has a sense of irony any more. According to Debresser, it is apparently OK to keep on reverting so long as you first report the other party at AN3 and then do your revert. No wonder User:Ymblanter (above) wanted to block both parties. EdJohnston (talk) 03:19, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * "apparent lack of interest (from either party) in a negotiated solution" Remind me who it was who started a discussion on the article's talk page? I note also that my last question there, referred to by Johnbod, above, has been ignored. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:05, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I am fine with dispute resolution. I added that I think that Johnbod's revert should be undone, as the last stable version was before his edit and the addition is controversial, and such is indeed common practice here in such cases. Debresser (talk) 10:58, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * It's not "controversial", just because you - and you alone - don't like it. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:31, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Please, you are being WP:BATTLEFIELD again. It is not that I "don't like it". I have provided two arguments. I repeat that as long as you keep up this attitude, I think you should be blocked to avoid further disruption. Debresser (talk) 16:46, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
