Statement of the dispute
1. Abuse of reverts. The 3RR specifically states that 3 reverts are a maximum and not a privilege. 2. Open declaration of denying any form of consensus. The user has repeatedly said he will not seek consensus. 3. Lying on the talk page about the source of the dispute. User claims that documentation that surrealists call themselves revolutionary is, ipso facto proof that his means of stating this is correct. 4. Incivility and personal attacks over the course of months. 5. False accusations of violating the 3RR.

Description
The history of surrealism pages and Surrealism itself is very troubled, it has been the repository for self-promotion and POV pushing by individuals who take themselves to be the inheritors, and arbiters, of the Surrealist tradition. Because of the value of the term "surrealism" in the marketplace, there is incentive to do this.

User:Classicjupiter2 originally editted as an IP address, since creating an account his incivility and POV pushing have only continued. He openly runs revert wars, threatens to revert, and has made a false accusation of my violating the "three revert rule". The personal attacks against me have gone on for months on the talk page.

Attempts to deal with this problem run back months, the page was protected for a time, the user agreed, and then violated, good faith on the page. This recurrance indicates that further attempts to deal with the problem without invoking formal mechanisms will be ineffective at best.

Evidence of disputed behavior
(provide diffs and links)
 * False accusation of reverts.
 * False revert report.
 * Open declaration of a revert war without any pretense of seeking consensus.
 * Example of non-responsive and argumentative attacks.
 * personal attack.
 * Continued revert warring.

In addition people can look at IP edits from the 24.168 block to see how this user simply cannot engage in meaningful and good faith editting going back to February of this year.
 * Using revert war for blackmail to stop revert war.
 * Continued demands for article ownership.
