Wikipedia:Lamest edit wars/User pages

PLEASE include two or three edit history links about the lame edit war. It would be also useful to list the date the edit war was added.

User:Axmann8
After an impostor of this user had been revealed (it was before suspected that the impostor's sock puppets were Axmann8's), several users (including administrators) revert-warred over whether this user should be tagged as banned or indef-blocked, since Axmann8 was initially banned due to a community discussion. The revert war can be seen in the.

User:Certified.Gangsta
A user's fake "you have new messages" banner, after remaining on their userpage for months without trouble, is removed as "disruptive" by an administrator in February 2007. A quick revert war leads to a block of the user by the administrator and a giant thread on the administrator's noticeboard (now preserved in its very own page; also here) over whether the fake banner, which simply links to practical joke, "takes away from contributing to the encyclopedia". Many users admonish the administrator's actions with some calling for desysoping of the admin. The edit war was revived for a short time in January 2008, and in April 2009 a similar banner by a different user also precipitated a brief user block.

User:COOL CAT ON WHEELS!!!!
Should this indef-blocked user with no edits have an impostor tag, WoW, or pagemovevandal? Edit warring had to end, unfortunately, when the userpage and eventually all three templates were deleted.

User:CorenSearchBot vs. User:Polbot
CorenSearchBot, a Wikipedia bot, alleges PolBot (another bot) of multiple copyright violations, leaving template warnings all over the "vandal's" Talkpage until human editors intervene.

User:Jimbo Wales
Edit war over background color of various parts of user page. Jimbo himself never made his color preferences known, but the war ended nonetheless.

Part 2 – Edit war over whether it should be noted on Jimbo's userpage that he was either a co-founder or sole founder. Several users reverted each other, and one was blocked for WP:3RR; however, after he was unblocked, he was at it again, careful not to violate WP:3RR.

User:R/Single Letter Group
Should people be allowed to edit this page if they have more than one letter in their username? What about numbers? Symbols? Warring involves sysops deleting and restoring the page to remove "unwanted" contributions to the page. It culminated in the Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:R/Single Letter Group MFD listing.

User:The Trolls of Navarone
Two sysops in a revert war over the user page of a blocked sockpuppet of banned user:142. Then, a month later, a user takes one of them to Quickpolls over the revert war.

User talk:66.167.235.16
User:Arminius left the Template:test message on the anonymous user's talk page. The anonymous user removed the test message. A three hour, 25-edit war followed over whether or not the talk page should include such inflammatory messages as and welcome notices. Edit warring about this edit war then proceeded onto this very page. Other admins were called in to look at the situation, and, after careful analysis and fact-checking, it was determined to be a very lame edit war indeed.

User talk:Ned Scott
An anonymous user copied and re-posted an attack originally posted by another anonymous user in 2008. It was subsequently reverted by others and then restored by the user a total of 22 times in 10 minutes.

User talk:2602:30A:C06E:EDC0:80B3:5D9:F53D:BBB1
The blocked IP removed a block message, multiple users added it back, talk page access was revoked, socking began, with the page ending up being fully protected indefinitely. User:Bishonen ended up stating:"I've fullprotected this page to stop the edit warring. I hope everybody realizes all the IPs posting here are one individual, who is thereby entitled to remove (not refactor) comments here. There's little point in fighting on one of their many talkpages anyway. Who's gonna know?"
