Comments: The user has done SIX reverts within a 36 hour perdiod, logging out of their account to mask the 3R. The user does not get involved on the talkpage. Several other users have tried to stop their editwar but they keep on reverting and using only the word disruptive behaviour in the edit history. User has been informed but they have removed the {{subst:an3-notice}}tag from their talkpage here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bijdenhandje (talk • contribs) 20:36, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

Lengthy discussion. Click to view
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
I'm surprised this topic exists but here's my take. I noticed his disruptive edits which Youngforever reverted because he messed with the format of the page and believed him to be breaking MOS:ENTO and continued to revert, and did so five times in a short space of time. He then accused us of being the same person which is not true, I am from the UK while Youngforever is American. His claim of "several other users" is patently untrue because there was only one person who made the exact same edit as him out of nowhere which was reverted around 24 hours before he appeared today to make those very same edits. 81.96.245.175 (talk ) 20:42, 13 December 2020 (UTC) I have not violated any 3RR. Bijdenhandje accusations are baseless. The ip address is in Leicestershire, United Kingdom and I live in California, United States. That is two different countries. — YoungForever(talk) 20:43, 13 December 2020 (UTC) You're grasping at straws and have no evidence to back up these bogus claims. It's not possible for us to be the same person, the technology doesnt exist to teleport between countries within the space of minutes, this isn't Star Trek. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 20:52, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Above statement by the user from this IP is untrue as can be seen in the edit history. Evidence is here and here. As can be seen in the edit history user has a questionable history of reverting. Only telling other people in the edit summary to stop THEIR disruptive behaviour, rather than explaining what they are doing or participating on the TP of the article in question. Bijdenhandje (talk) 20:53, 13 December 2020 (UTC) You haven't provided evidence of anything to back up any of the claims you're making. This user [8] who made the same edit as you less than 24 hours ago appears to be under investigation for sock puppetry here [9]. I'd love to know why that account was dormant for over four years only to make the same edits as you. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 20:59, 13 December 2020 (UTC) You have provided no evidence for your location so it does not really matter what the location the IP you are using is. There are clear signs of quacking here. Last time I checked they didn't use tunneling aboard starships. Bijdenhandje (talk ) 21:02, 13 December 2020 (UTC) I'm using a static IP address which rarely changes, as my edit history shows. So far you've only brought false accusations and assumptions to the table. If this is all you're offering I'm done here and I'll leave it up to the admin. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 21:04, 13 December 2020 (UTC) MOS:DASH on their side. When inputting a range—for example, Monday–Friday—you use an en-dash, not a regular hyphen. The filer of the report should be the one warned or blocked here. Amaury • 21:09, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Agreed. They did two reverts in the span of 48 hours, which is not punishable at all. The reporting user, on the other hand, has been involved much more. D🐶ggy54321 (let's chat!) 21:10, 13 December 2020 (UTC) NO they have six reverts in 36 hours, read the history. They were involved in an editwar with multiple-users. The only thing they did was write:"stop being disruptive" (or simular words) in the edit summary. They were not involved on the articles talkpage. Bijdenhandje (talk) 21:13, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Goodness, why do you persist with this "They're the same person" nonsense? We've both told you we're different people, let it go already. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 21:15, 13 December 2020 (UTC) @Bijdenhandje: Why have you not started a discussion on the matter in question at the talk page? —C.Fred (talk) 21:21, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Just to bring this discussion back ontrack. Two of the quoted reverts were me reverting the reporting user because he was being disruptive, another was me making a WP:DUMMYEDIT to correct myself as at the time he reverted three times. Youngforever technically has only made two reverts of the user in question. The other two examples are bogus and aren't reverts whatsoever. I think we can all agree that this report never should have existed as its baseless and without merit. 81.96.245.175 (talk ) 21:15, 13 December 2020 (UTC) ( WP:3RR, though. To break 3RR, you need four or more reverts within the span of 24 hours. Amaury • 21:18, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Just on a side note: they are counting two different edit, I did withint about a minute, as two different reverts. I could have done them in a single edit but they are different issues. There are no reverts from other people in between the edits. So I don't see how its possible to count them, other than for the use of WP:POINT. Bijdenhandje (talk ) 21:25, 13 December 2020 (UTC) It's a good thing the edit history is not some kind of secret file. Anyone can look into it and confirm that they started editwaring with another user yesterday. Also there was no mention of a guideline in the edit summary. Only insults about being inconstructive. Bijdenhandje (talk) 21:20, 13 December 2020 (UTC) If you're going to make accusations of insults, then you need to provide specific diffs and not expect people to just look around and hope they know what you're talking about, as otherwise you're just making baseless claims without evidence. Now, I took a look at the history of Young Sheldon and can see no evidence of insults from YoungForever. Amaury • 21:25, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Lest we find edits that are adequately described in the edit summary and are bringing the article back into compliance with MOS.[10] —C.Fred (talk) 21:27, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Boomerang. The filer is both wrong on the merits, and is making a non- WP:AGF accusation of editing while logged out with zero proof. FTR, the IP acts nothing like YoungForever so there's almost no chance it's the same editor. --IJBall (contribs • talk ) 21:26, 13 December 2020 (UTC) The only person violating 3RR and edit warring is the filer of this report which can been seen on the history Young Sheldon, they were reverted by me, the ip address, and Schazjmd. — YoungForever(talk) 21:34, 13 December 2020 (UTC) They continued to accuse the other editors of disruptive behaviour, how it that not an insult? Bijdenhandje (talk) 21:27, 13 December 2020 (UTC) @Bijdenhandje: Breaking MOS once is a reasonable accident. Breaking it repeatedly can be deemed to be disruptive. —C.Fred (talk) 21:30, 13 December 2020 (UTC) What are the odds of some random IP-user stumbling across some random article and having knowledge of this guideline? There was no mention in the edit summary of this guideline, all they did was writing insults while reverting. Bijdenhandje (talk) 21:33, 13 December 2020 (UTC) You're leaving me little choice here. I used to edit here under this name [11]. I had a bad experience here and gave up using an account to go IP only after a few months had passed. That's your entire argument destroyed. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 21:36, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Arguments are destroyed by providing evidence not by linking a random user account. It could be you, it could be someone else, it could even be one of many accounts you own. And no I am not saying that you do. Just pointing out the flaws in your 'argument'. Bijdenhandje (talk) 21:38, 13 December 2020 (UTC) You can request that an admin geolocate the IP attached to the account. I haven't personally used the account since I gave up editing Wikipedia regularly. But they will see that we're both from the same town. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 21:42, 13 December 2020 (UTC) @ drop the stick and get back to productive editing. —C.Fred (talk ) 21:41, 13 December 2020 (UTC) @Bijdenhandje: Again I say, drop the stick. I'm willing to close this report with no action. On the other hand, if you keep going, I'll take a look at the article's edit history again and sanction the obvious 3RR violation. —C.Fred (talk) 21:45, 13 December 2020 (UTC) ( WP:DROPTHESTICK and move on. Focus on something more productive. Amaury • 21:47, 13 December 2020 (UTC) This and this is how you should handle situations like this. That's what prevents conflicts. Insults are what start conflicts. If they had done it Schazjmd's example then there would have been no editwar yesterday and there would have been no insults. Bijdenhandje (talk) 21:42, 13 December 2020 (UTC) I did not allege sockpuppetry. I never said YoungForever is using multiple useraccounts. Bijdenhandje (talk) 21:49, 13 December 2020 (UTC) This diff contradicts that statement. —C.Fred (talk) 21:53, 13 December 2020 (UTC) How does that contradict what I said? I did not say they logged into another account. Bijdenhandje (talk) 22:03, 13 December 2020 (UTC) ( sockpuppetry. Without evidence, to boot. Amaury • 21:54, 13 December 2020 (UTC) That is not an accusation of sock-puppetry. It's a response to the spaceship argument. What other username did I mention? Bijdenhandje (talk) 22:00, 13 December 2020 (UTC) You've accused us of being the same person multiple times on this report. You've even quoted edits I've made and placed alongside Youngforevers in your initial report. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 22:11, 13 December 2020 (UTC) @C.Fred: Using threats is very counter productive. Please don't do that again. A lot of this could have been avoided by not making insults and informing the users instead. They way Schazjmd did in their revert is the correct way. Threats or insults are not the way to de-escalate a situation. I am not aware of the english moderator guidelines but I don't think this is appropiate. Bijdenhandje (talk) 22:00, 13 December 2020 (UTC) For the last time, there were no insults. I acknowledge that YoungForever could have linked to the guidelines, but their reverts were still correct and he did not use insults anywhere. And I am failing to see the threats that C.Fred is allegedly making. Saying that he'll block you because you're refusing to drop the stick and move on to more production things is a warning, not a threat. I would seriously consider listening, unless you want to be blocked. Amaury • 22:11, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Amaury, I don't care if I am being blocked after being threatened, cause there is arb-com for that. A block does not change the situation, threats only escalate it. Apparently logging-out to use an IP-adress is seen as sockpuppetry on EN-wiki. On NL-wiki it requires logging into an actual second account, because an IP-adress is not an account. You can't sanction someone for not following an essasy. Even if I did intend to accuse them of sockpuppetry, which is clearly not the case. Schazjmd already resolved this issue ten minutes after I filled the disruption. So this entire discussion is irrelevant given their appropriate use of the edit summary. I do not agree with your opinion on insults, that's all I have to say. Bijdenhandje (talk) 23:05, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Even though I did not linked MOS:ENDASH on the warning as shown here [12] though. — YoungForever(talk) 22:45, 13 December 2020 (UTC) The initial insult on my talkpage here did not contain any reference to MOS:ENDASH what so ever. I removed it and explained in the edit summary that it was posted on the wrong talkpage. The second sjablon was even more insulting, I did not read orange sjablons or warnings when they look like a harrasment to me. In stead of an editwar, there should have been information on the talkpage of Young Sheldon or in the edit summary. Bijdenhandje (talk ) 23:05, 13 December 2020 (UTC) You really need to learn what the definition of insult actually is. YoungForever's message on your talk page is not an insult, it is a warning due to your disruptive editing. Warnings and insults are two very different things. Amaury • 23:21, 13 December 2020 (UTC) No, I don't need to 'learn' what your definition of an insult is. There was no disruptive editing from my part or the other person involved. Bijdenhandje (talk) 23:25, 13 December 2020 (UTC) It is not my definition, it is the literal definition of the word in dictionaries. 1) "speak to or treat with disrespect or scornful abuse" and 2) "a disrespectful or scornfully abusive remark or action," neither of which YoungForever did. Amaury • 23:32, 13 December 2020 (UTC) It is your opinion that I was not treated with disrespect. You are entitled to that opinion. Now can this please stop? Go make a seperate request if you want to feel good about something. I don't know what you want. I'm not going to respond this non-sense anymore. Bijdenhandje (talk) 23:37, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Here's a screenshot of Wikipedia notifications from my email address which will match up with my talkpage. [13] I haven't logged into the account in almost a year and have no intention of doing so(I don't feel comfortable doing so anymore). Here's another screenshot showing my account name and IP address which you can geolocate to the same location as my current IP. [14]. Can this we're the same person stuff be dropped now? That's not true. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 22:01, 13 December 2020 (UTC) The disruption at the article appears to have stopped. Perhaps everyone should take a breath (it's just a stupid hyphen/en dash that doesn't really matter to the reader) and get on with constructive editing. Schazjmd (talk) 22:14, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Alright, I guess the discussion can be closed. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 22:25, 13 December 2020 (UTC) The topic reporter is removing statements which implicate him in bad faith accusations, such as this one [15]. He made this in response to the posts made by myself and Youngforever. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 23:21, 13 December 2020 (UTC) @ WP:INVOLVED. Amaury • 23:23, 13 December 2020 (UTC) @C.Fred: Messed up on my ping above when I first posted it. Amaury • 23:24, 13 December 2020 (UTC) C.Fred, I agree with Amaury. Edit warring on the edit warring noticeboard is beyond ridiculous. Schazjmd (talk) 23:26, 13 December 2020 (UTC) If there is an editwar then the person who started it should be sanctioned if they continue. This is not the place for that request. The above accusation by the IP is false, I am considering requesting a sanction if it is not retracted. You can use CTRL-F and see for yourself that I removed MY OWN duplicate with the excact same contents. Bijdenhandje (talk) 23:30, 13 December 2020 (UTC) The content of both posts are clearly different. You removed the statement where you clearly accuse both myself and Youngforever of being the same person without evidence because you know that's a blockable offense. You should own up to your own mistakes instead of trying to bully users pointing out your actions. That's no way to treat people. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 23:37, 13 December 2020 (UTC) That's Bullshit I corrected the typo in the second post and removed the first post. Other than the letter 'T' there is no difference at all. Use CTRL-F and show me where I call you he or she. You know that I mistyped it. Are you just trying to make a point? I did not call you he or she anywhere in this entire discussion! Stop being dishonest, anyone can use CTRL-F and debunk this. Accusing someone of sockpuppetry, wich I did not, is not even a blockable offense. You got that from an essay. Please make a seperate request for that and stop this madness. Bijdenhandje (talk) 23:45, 13 December 2020 (UTC) You did not. You made the first post at 20:48(for me) where you accuse us of being the same person(And said you'd add links) and followed it up 5 minutes later with a lengthy post with a reworded opening line which includes the links and some more accusations. I'm not stupid, it's all there on the page. You then came back later and wiped out the 20:48 post claiming it was the "same". That's not true. Please at least have the honesty to just admit your mistakes when you've been caught trying to cover your tracks. And on your other point, your entire post is accusing us of being the same person. Your linked "evidence" in the report is revisions made by both myself and Youngforever. You were the one who started this whole issue and the problem seems to be your inability to just accept your mistakes and move on. Instead you repeat them and even edit war on the admin board. 81.96.245.175 (talk) 23:52, 13 December 2020 (UTC) Actually, you can get block for personal attacks. This was what you said above: The user has done SIX reverts within a 36 hour perdiod, logging out of their account to mask the 3R. This is clearly an accusation of sockpuppetry. — YoungForever(talk) 01:22, 14 December 2020 (UTC) Here are the duplicates, anyone can see that there is no substantive difference. Even the typo is still there. This edit has been removed: "Above statements by the user and (t)his IP are untrue as can be seen in the edit history. I will link them in a minute." Because it is a duplicate of: "Above statement by the user from (t)his IP is untrue as can be seen in the edit history. Evidence is" If you are accusing me of trying to cover something up you should explain how this is not a duplicate. This is not the place to do so. You should start your own request Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents. Don't forget to mention that I never asked for a bann or a check user. You are the one who was editwarring by putting the duplicates back. Bijdenhandje (talk) 00:23, 14 December 2020 (UTC) I would like to close this report with no action but instinct suggests that User:Bijdenhandje, who has already broken 3RR, is going to continue beating the dead horse until some admin decides that a block is necessary. EdJohnston (talk) 00:07, 14 December 2020 (UTC) I agree, this has gone beyond the topic of edit warring, the conversation can be moved elsewhere. D🐶ggy54321 (let's chat!) 00:10, 14 December 2020 (UTC) I am not the one beating a dead horse and was not the one voilating 3RR. This has been resolved hours ago, but the IP continues accusing me of hiding information while everything is still there. If they want to block me they should move their request elsewhere and stop doing it here. I wouldn't be bothered by a block at all. I hardly use the English Wikipedia and when I do I'm hardly ever on this account. So good luck IP, I'm going to bed. Bijdenhandje (talk) 00:30, 14 December 2020 (UTC) I am pretty sure the history of Young Sheldon shows you violated 3RR/edit warring. — YoungForever(talk) 00:37, 14 December 2020 (UTC) And I am pretty sure the history of Young Sheldon shows you violated 3RR/edit warring with two different users on two seperate days. All could have been prevented. But it does not look like you are willing to learn from your mistakes. Bijdenhandje (talk) 00:45, 14 December 2020 (UTC) The two admins above stated otherwise. Your accusations are completely baseless. — YoungForever(talk) 00:55, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

• Result: No action taken. It appears that the filer,
  MOS:ENTO prefers an endash to a hyphen for the phrase '18–21 minutes' in the Young Sheldon article. If warring continues admin action is likely. EdJohnston (talk

It was also previously observed by admin @EdJohnston: in a discussion on my talkpage. There may be some inability on his part too in this.

Andrew Ruggero has been warned after several times making inflammatory, false statements in the above article, including alleging (without a source) that it was an act of "black supremacy" and then further violated NPOV by adding the races of those involved to the lead, leading to undue weight and and an implication that this was a racially motivated crime, which has been discussed on the talk page over and over again.

It seems like he doesn't even care about the warning I and Curious gave. --► Sincerely: SolaVirum 17:31, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

The contents of the article have to apply to

WP:NOPV. The article in its version supported by CuriousGolden and Solavirum was indeed one-sided, as the arrest of the two persons was called "two people taken hostage". This is obviously one-sided. Vmakenas cannot be blamed for trying to find a more neutral version citing both sides. If there are 2 edit warriors on one side, this does not change the fact that they are themselves edit warriors. -- PhJ (talk

) 17:44, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Let me get this straight. Calling this incident a terrorist attack, making it look like the unrecognized NKR court had made the right decision, and that Azerbaijan was in the wrong is trying to find a more neutral version citing both sides for you? Nah mate. He could've had just changed hostage to arrest rather than showing this like some sort of a PKK-like raid on peaceful people. Vmakenas's disruptive behaviour is clearly visible here; edit warring, not caring about talk requests, removing warnings on his talk page, and so on. Being an apologist of him/her ain't a okay thing. --► Sincerely: SolaVirum 17:56, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Furthermore, that wasn't even POV. Armenia has acknowledged that these both were either hostages, or POWs. As they had returned them to Azerbaijan as part of the ceasefire agreement which stated that both sides must exchange hostages or POWs. --► Sincerely: SolaVirum 18:04, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

In reality there are different weights of evidence rather than the dichotomy of "conclusive" vs. "inconclusive", which could mean different things to different people anyway.

Nicoljaus, a user who has been blocked numerous times for edit warring, is up to his old behavior once again, deleting sources information from both the above mentioned page and the Taras Bulba-Borovets page, a page that he has committed edit warring on and been blocked several times before. He does not attempt to resolve his disputes in a civilized manner on talk pages, and resorts to personal attacks instead. Just so we do not have a further rehash of his past behaviors, I am reporting him here. Thanks.Corriganthe3rd (talk) 04:32, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

It appears a relatively new editor is showing up at the page and an edit war resulted. BazingaFountain42 appears to have made at least 4 reverts just today.

As I have previously stated, the vandalism was on accident. My computer had a browser extension that changed every instance of "Trump" to "Drumpf", and I realized that shortly after and removed the vandalism and corrected the article to have Blinken shown as the nominee. I can't believe I have to say that again. It's incredibly frustrating that you keep bringing that up because I have admitted my mistake, acknowledge the reason for it and am no longer making said mistake. Furthermore, the reason why there was the discussion on whether or not we should have Granholm listed as the nominee was because she hasn't been officially announced yet, whereas Blinken has been officially announced. It wasn't on whether or not we should have her listed as the nominee because Biden hasn't yet been inaugurated. Context is everything. Excluding Granholm (since her nomination has not yet been officially announced by the Biden transition team), literally every single on of Biden's nominees has the position for which they have been nominated and "Nominee" in their infobox. BazingaFountain42 (talk) 17:26, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

• As I have answered when threatened on my talk page: I’m sorry, but are you serious? You leave a threat for only one side of a disagreement but not the person that is adding unsourced material into an FAC, then using an unreliable source and a source that doesn’t back up what they are claiming? And yet you come to kick the IP editor, not a registered editor. It’s not a great surprise, but they are also edit warring, and they are damaging the article when they do so. What gives, exactly? I will repeat: a registered editor has added unsourced material which I removed. He edit warred it back in. Should it be left there in a featured article? Should we leave it there when he reverted again and added a source that doesn’t show what he claims and an unreliable source? According to Tbhotch, it’s ok to threaten the IP editor for edit warring, but the registered editor, despite their edit warring, doesn’t get the same treatment?

I'll just say my edits were doing different things: adding text, then adding a ref, then another, then removing the original sentence, which was misleading without the extra stuff I was trying to add, and hardly relevant (concerning events 150 years later).

Hi, I've requested arbitration by an admin, shirt58. But I don't mind any admin popping over and advising. I'd like to assume good faith by the above, it just seemed a tad suspicious to request for examples and then edit them.Halbared (talk) 22:08, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

I've also requested a look by AmandaNP, I'll abide by any third set of admin eyes, I may have gotten too close.Halbared (talk) 22:17, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Halbared self-reverted and we'll both accept third party opinion. This report can be closed as far as I am concerned. Vpab15 (talk) 22:51, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Comment the user is clearly trying to manipulate the guidelines. See my edit explanations and how PhJ voided discussing this and achieving any kind of a

, not even taking a look at my attempts to bring him to the talk page. 21:27, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

Finding consensus means, in an article about a conflict, giving all opinions of the parties involved in an appropriate manner. That is what Solavirum refuses to do. He wants to push the Azeris' POV. There were older, more neutral versions of the article, as well as versions tagged with the POV or Multiple Issues template. Reverting to a POV version is edit warring. -- PhJ (talk) 21:39, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

That version was established by Scottywong, an administrator and a third-party editor, and you reverted his edits too. The more neutral versions of the article you're referring to was making the topic look like a terrorist attack and the editor who added that is already blocked for violating the guidelines. What PhJ does is avoiding any kind of a discussion and edit warring. --► Sincerely: SolaVirum 22:36, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

And in any case, this report should be disregarded, as when the report was filed, I had reverted myself twenty minutes ago. --► Sincerely: SolaVirum 22:38, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

Comment Agree with PhJ, what SolaVirum is doing in that article is clearly POV-pushing, by removing ALL info from Armenian or neutral sources and adding only Azeri or Turkish sources.--HCPUNXKID 14:54, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

First of all, I'm not adding any Turkish sources, I've only added BBC article to the article. Secondly, no, I'm telling PhJ to achieve consensus before publishing such controversial edits. He's calling the incident a multiday terrorist attack (which is a laughable claim). In any case, even if your statement was true, this application is still a false flag. --► Sincerely: SolaVirum 16:02, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

The user has reverted their 4th revert, meaning they haven't broken

15:05, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Comment I agree with PhJ, Solavirum seems to have a big POV-pushing problem, simply deleting sources that confirm information he doesn't like. He removed multiple sources on the 2020 Ganja missile attacks article of Arayik Harutyunyan saying Azerbaijan was targeting civilians in the 2020 bombardment of Stepanakert, his reason simply being "happened right after first attack" even though the bombardment took place a week later. When @Sataralynd: added it back saying this is key information, Solavirum again removed it, saying "has no place in the background". He tried removing it again as it was being discussed on the talk page, and when Sataralynd there was no consensus for removing it and this violates NPOV, Solavirum didn't even bother to explain his continued edit warring. --Steverci (talk) 00:16, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Those were added without any kind of a consensus. We reached a consensus. And its there, though with additional information necessary to show that Artsakh authorities saying that they were afraid that even archaeologists will not be able to find the place of Ganja. However, is this even related to this application? --► Sincerely: SolaVirum 00:55, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Obviously, Solavirum has a very different understanding of "consensus" than general people in a democratic country. In the case of this article, the Ganja article and other article where Solavirum is "working" on, there is clearly NO consensus on the statements Solavirum is placing in the WP articles. -- PhJ (talk) 05:16, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

User Hugo.arg keeps malisiouly reverting obvious factual information for no reason. Name Kėdainiai is a Lithuanian name, which had transcriptions in other languages. This fact is maliciously and withour arguments deleted. -- Ke an (talk) 10:03, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

It is not transcription. Polish and Russian names were OFFICIAL writing forms of Lithuanian settlements prior 1918. Also, they are not a

Hradec Kralove) even if they are a product of short lived occupation. In this case, German, Polish and Russian names were used for Lithuanian toponyms for centuries, till 1918, and there standartized only c. 1950. Hugo.arg (talk

) 10:12, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

There were no OFFICIAL toponyms. Lithuania was occupied several times and that doesn't mean the derivative names in other languages were "official". Lithuanian form of Kėdainiai recorded at least in 17th century in written form. It should be clearly stated that form in which language is original, but Hug.arg defends a policy of cultural appropriation and places all names in all possible languages as equivalent and "official" and deletes all references to its original Lithuanian form. He executes this practise in his massive edits in almost all Lithuania towns and villages. I see it is a practise with a doubtfull unknown purpose defending point of view that Lithuania toponyms are somehow "invented" or even standartised in 1950 (!). 99 percent toponyms in Lithuania have Lithuanian (Baltic) origins and placing them as derivative or "standartised lately" with recorded forms in other languages is misguiding at least. French, Dutch and Spanish also have derivative names of Lithuanian toponyms and that doens't mean we should stuff everything into the English (particularly English) page. There are pages in the corresponding languages. The statement "German, Polish and Russian names were used for Lithuanian toponyms for centuries" is obviously wrong. Different nations used Lithuanian transcriptions (better or worse) for their needs, but that doens't mean those 3 languages were used especially for Lithuanian toponyms.
Also, Hugo.arg argues, that he puts toponyms in all possible languages in Wikipedia just beacause it is important for some reasearch he executes and it would be easier to find toponyms for him. I don't understand that selfish approach.
There is a page on Wikipedia for Lithuanian toponyms and their derivative forms and I think it works perfectly:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_Lithuanian_places_in_other_languages
The practise for putting toponyms in other languages as equivalent or even as "more historical" also violates the laws of Lithuania:

Regarding the notability - I have removed some representatives with a doubtfull notability (usually very local or notable in narrow communities) not matter their belonging.

-- Ke an (talk) 12:59, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

As far as I am concerned, Ke an got sufficient explanations at the talk page, and, given long-term problematic editing (pushing Lithuanian nationalist POV) it is best to block them, choosing the duration according to the previous blocks.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:15, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

@Ymblanter:, you are supposed to give arguments, not your nationalistic biased view.There is nothing nationalist in my explanations. It is very sad that such persons as Ymblanter, promoting and representing Russian chauvinism in every possible discussion related Lithuania and the Baltis tates are infiltrated into Wikipedia amdinistrators. So my objection to this type of "administrators". They do much harm to WIkipedia. -- Ke an (talk) 14:25, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Not sure where you see Russian chauvinism in my edits, but this is one more argument to get you blocked.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:48, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

@Ymblanter: Your bias and chauvinism, low discussion ethics disqualifies you from judging states previously occupied by Russia --- Ke an (talk) 14:51, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your opinion, but I obviously disagree with pretty much every word of it.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:54, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

@Renata3: any thoughts?

I see here just a clear promoting of his POV by the user:Ke an - not as it is or was but how it should be ignoring everything, as Lithuania in 1918 would had been created in an empty place. Rather of your stubborn promoting of your POV which will lead nowhere (except to your block) you could expand "etymology" sections for the Lithuanian settlements to prove their Baltic origin. But you are not concerned of scholar things (as I understand your knowledge of comparative and historical linguistics are close to zero) but just about promoting your propaganda which is kind of distorted view to the history imagining that Standard Lithuanian existed from the 10th century. There were, in fact, various dialects and no written form of them till the 19th century. The same toponym could be pronounced differently depending on dialect and even interpretation. During the interwar period and at the early Sovet era there were a long process of "re-Lithuanization" of these toponyms. Even the same toponym often were re-Lithuaized in different ways (ex. Polish: Malinowka at some cases there Lithuanized as "Malinovka", at some cases "translated" as "Avietynė" and at some cases as "Molynė"). Some toponyms were Lithuanized in such way that nobody uses them in spoken language (ex. a local village near Kėdainiai officialy is Paobelys but I heard it pronounced only as Padūbėlė, not counting the dialect forms as Utieka is in fact pronounced only as Ucieka). Russian, Polish and German forms are very useful information for historical linguistics and shoul not be removed just for an aim to run away from own past.

Would rather not bring the issue to AN, but RfC would not be a viable forum. The user's first revert's edit summary does not accurately describe the revert nor the RS. The second revert by user was performed before user replied at either of the two talk discussions, after being asked to bring the issues to both talks [57]. Please note that while this AN was being prepared, the user finally went to talk, but with statements which either don't address the reverts, or question RS, apparently based on their opinion. I'd add that ASPIRE applies to the reply at talk. Thanks for any help you can give. Pasdecomplot (talk) 01:07, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

An instant WP:BOOMERANG for the reporter is in order, based on the apparently based on their opinion remark alone, a violation of their editing restriction to not comment on the motivations of other editors outside of WP:AN/I, as formally logged by @

.

Not only is the report frivolous, the timeline suggested while this AN was being prepared is false as well. My initial talk page post in response occurred at 23:22, whereas PdC's latest revert occurred at 23:23. CaradhrasAiguo (leave language) 02:25, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

• Declined I see both parties have started a talk page discussion. That's good. More of that and less of discussion through edit summaries please. Also I see no violation of the editing restriction the filing party is under at this point. Barkeep49 (talk) 03:15, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

My response below was being prepared as Barkeep49 decided to decline:

• This is AN.
• The subject is Nyingchi.
• The talk discussions are factual and indicate this AN is definitely not "frivolous".
• Multiple APERSIONS are unfounded.
• RSNB discussion is being honored, even though the closing clearly states each source needs to be presented individually for separate discussions. That's why Tibetan Review and Tibetan Political Review are the RS.
• I know nothing about the author Smith's alleged affiliations with other media outlets. Tibetan Political Review is the RS, thus the characterization of "brazen attempt" and 'IDHT conduct" is not based on WP:AOGF.
• The "Tourism" talk discussion was posted hours before the 1st revert. No pings to me were made on either talk, and the 2nd revert was immediately after notice was given of both talks.
• The RS fully supports the edits, whereas the reasons for the reverts given in the edit summaries are definitely misleading.
• My original edits from more than a month ago have been re-edited since. Thus, I haven't been "caught distorting the source wording". For example, the RS in "Tourism" isn't from Radio Free Asia, yet someone added it as a link. In fact, I corrected misleading editing today on the political re-education RS. Pasdecomplot (talk) 03:20, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Concerned about the neutrality of the page and province-specific issues, I removed certain information and moved information to province-specific pages on COVID-19. User reverted my changes. I admittedly reverted these (which I should not of) and decided to refrain from edit warring and begin a discussion on the talk page. I have notified said user. Page is broken off from a protected page, but Timeline article is not protected.

Sorry CaffeinAddict. My reasoning is contained in my edit summaries, which are available here. I cannot be considered to have started an edit war because, as the material in question has been extant for many days if not months, the one who desires to change the wiki page must bring his/her arguments to the talk page before making changes.

Comments:

I find this all rather baffling. I edited the article Christmas controversies to include, er, a recent Christmas controversy. At first, this was reverted because my writing was "tabloid style"[75]. So I reverted because my writing seemed perfectly fine and this seemed a rather snobby thing to say (in particular, if you think the language of an edit isn't good enough, why not try *improving* it first, rather than just deleting it?).

This then got reverted by another editor, who said the problem was that the source was the headline.[76] So the problem was supposed to be the source itself, not the style. I then reverted again, because (as I explained in my edit) my source wasn't the headline, but the article I linked.

The same editor then reverted it back, this time explaining that my original edit (which said "cancelled Christmas") was an unfair summary of that article (which, in their words, said "effectively cancelled Christmas gatherings").[77] That response (different, or at least, differently explained to the other two reversions) seemed fair enough by me, so I took on board their criticism and edited a new summary that used the literal phrase they chose ("effectively cancelled Christmas gatherings") as part of my new edit instead. I corrected my mistake. I will point out here btw that again it seems like it would've been both friendly and a healthier form of editing if either of these two editors had made this edit themselves, rather than this lazy deletion. I'm not experienced with encyclopaedia editing but I reckon if you want to encourage noobs to join in and improve this place then improving their, often initially faulty, work would be better than just auto-deleting. But that's just my tuppence worth.

Anyway, I figured that would be that. Criticism taken on board and Wikipedia article improved. But instead, the editor who reverted my very first edit decided to revert this one too.[78] Let me quote their reasoning in full: "Christmas is not cancelled. Please re-write your edit in appropriate language". This is bizarre. I had already rewritten my edit in "appropriate language" - using the phrasing suggested by another editor! And my new edit didn't say that "Christmas was cancelled". My edit explicitly changed that phrasing and used new, better phrasing. I can only presume this editor, Timothy Titus, didn't bother to read the edit I made before reverting it, and so deleted it without thinking. Either they are gatekeeping the page, or they automatically assume that no lowly anon users can possibly have anything to contribute, or they think that users can't learn and take on board criticisms - which I had done. Either way this seems like bad editing to me.

Finally, I see this complaint page and see there's a link to a section on the talk page about this, posted by the second editor, which I'd previously been unaware of. This talk page section complains that the source I used doesn't describe it as a controversy. I have three responses to that. 1) It doesn't logically follow - whether or not people support the new restrictions doesn't relate to whether or not it's a controversy (for instance, someone might think they should've happened earlier, or that if other decisions had been made before then the country wouldn't have gotten to the stage of needing to cancel Christmas gatherings). Controversy has a wide meaning and the complaints and worries in the article are part of that. 2) Note that this is now the FOURTH differing objection to my edit that has been made. The editor had made no previous complaint that the source wasn't related to a controversy - they had only said before that the wording wasn't better and I then used their exact wording. I find it hard to feel like I'm being treated in good faith if editors keep finding new reasons that they don't mention before why an edit is bad. I did what they said and that still wasn't good enough. 3) It's just factually wrong - this had been the main story all day with outrage across the political spectrum, and a large controversy for several weeks leading up this. Anyone who is even slightly familiar with UK news and politics knows this. So imagine you're a noob editor who sees a huge controversy in your country and decides to add a brief summary on Wikipedia. You won't necessarily find the perfect source and you might only be able to give a very short description. But the hope would be that other editors would see your summary and feel inspired to flesh it out and/or find better sources. That is, after all, how a collaborative encyclopaedia is supposed to work. So I bring this back to my earlier point - perhaps the source isn't the best one to outline it as a controversy (though see pt 1). Ok, but why should this be brought up on a complaint page here? Surely the response to a well-meaning noob user making a ham-fisted edit is to improve it, find better sources etc, rather than say it should be reverted? Why is deletion the automatic first response of both of these two editors? 81.129.200.185 (talk) 02:46, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

You seem to assume that it's beholden on other editors not only to clean up your mistakes, but to invest a lot of time into cleaning them up in the way that you most want them cleaned up. That is not the case, you're dealing with volunteers here that are not beholden in any such way. You added a false claim (Christmas being cancelled) on a page where the source you gave did not support its presence. The quickest way to deal with that is to remove it; that doesn't prevent anyone who wished to create accurate and appropriate coverage of the same situation from doing so. Once any block for edit warring is passed, you are welcome - nay, encouraged - to join in on discussion on the talk page. You're apt to find that a better strategy than repeatedly adding content with insults to your fellow editors. --Nat Gertler (talk) 05:53, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

I don't believe it's "beholden" on other editors to clean up my mistakes, I merely pointed that *given you have already volunteered to clean up my mistakes* (which is what deleting people's contributions is a form of), it would have been just as easy to change the wording from "cancelled Christmas" to your own(!) suggested phrasing of "effectively cancelled Christmas gatherings" i.e. we're disagreeing over how best to clean up mistakes, not on whether or not you should clean up someone's mistakes. You're welcome to do what you want with your free time lol. Nor does the edit *you suggested* require investing "a lot of time", since to revert my edit you had to literally type in the edit you wanted done in the summary of the edit. If you had requested paragraphs and paragraphs of edits that would be another matter, but you didn't, it was one phrase you yourself typed out.

As for "You added a false claim (Christmas being cancelled) on a page where the source you gave did not support its presence", you seem to have missed the part where I literally took on board this criticism and re-edited the page to fit the phrasing *you* asked for. It does not explain why this has now gone to some complaint page after the other editor reverted this contribution and why you're still complaining about it. I literally changed the phrasing to the one you asked for and you're still unhappy. Bizarre.

Finally, not sure I've given any insults unless you mean factual stuff like "snob" - but it is, in fact, kinda snobby and insulting to steam in to call a noob editor's writing tabloid style. Moreover, in general the ever-shifting reasons for deleting my edit (4 differing reasons, as I say above) feels kinda passive aggressive to me. I suggest you pick a reason and stick to it if you don't want to someone to be annoyed at what appears to be gatekeeping. 81.129.200.185 (talk) 15:32, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

I've been an avid lurker of Wikipedia for quite sometime as well as a huge fan of the Olympic Games. Recently, an article caught my eye that seemed out of the ordinary in this subtopic. It seems like another user named Stonksboi also felt the same way too a few days prior. However, I was instantly reverted with a reasoning given as "Thats whole lot of misapplied technical knowledge about wikipedia for an IP with no edit history". I'm not sure how am I suppose to respond to that? I've always thought that anyone was welcome to make contributions on this website, and this immediate hostility that had been given by this user was truly disheartening. And so I looked around Wikipedia's policies knowing surely this is out of the ordinary and I came across on the topic of edit-warring. And I'm afraid here I am making a report against this user. 68.228.34.71 (talk) 19:32, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

• Their original edit summary was "Olympics articles almost never has its controversies slapped on the lead section, it's undue weight. There aren't any for Rio 2016, Tokyo 2020 and if you want a direct comparison, Beijing 2008. What makes this any different? The burden is on you to gather consensus for such an inclusion.” so I’m shocked to see them claim that they only learned about the concept of edit warring or this noticeboard today. This wouldn't be the first dedicated attack account to stack up the reverts and then report me spuriously, heck it wouldn't even be the fourth or fifth... The rest were related to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ineedtostopforgetting although I can’t say with any certainly that this one is. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 19:48, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Also a discussion was opened on the talk page [84] long before this report, the IP has not participated in it. I’m more than willing to hear them out, but we don’t currently have any sources in the article which backs up the assertion that the calls for boycott are primarily based on any one thing and our current text says the exact opposite with a wide variety of issues being invoked by the heterogeneous groups pushing for a boycott. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 19:49, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

I'm honestly not sure as to why you're doubling down on this, such as calling me an "attack account", when I don't even have an account. All I'm interested is on that one article and the Olympics in general, but you do you I guess... Yes, I also saw that talk page, but you only did that after reverting 5 times in total, including me and that other user, not "long before this report". Like come on dude, the timestamps show it. Last I read it's considered "edit warring" when it has been done more than 3 times on the 4th attempt... 68.228.34.71 (talk) 20:09, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

And If you wanna talk Olympics, sure. All Olympics since its inception has its controversies. There's never been an Olympics Games where certain individuals or groups want it cancelled or boycotted. I mean heck, the now postponed

Rio 2016...I hope other users understand the point I'm making now... Your continued hostility against me does not sound like wanting to "hear me out". 68.228.34.71 (talk

) 20:11, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Dude you still haven't commented on the talk page. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 20:11, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

I've already did. Dude chill out, I only have 2 hands, It's only been a few minutes. I also have to say yet again I do not appreciate your comment there accusing me of "pushing the CCP POV". I've mentioned my reasoning of controversies that included other Olympics Games located outside China, such as Brazil and Japan, which were strictly non-political. 68.228.34.71 (talk) 20:32, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Thank you! I look forward to finding an outcome we can both live with on the talk page. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 21:07, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

• You know what... Reviewing the history I F’d up, that is 4 reverts in 24 hours which I hadn’t intended to do. I thought there was a day between Stonksboi and the IP but it looks like less than that. Thats on me, sorry and it won’t happen again. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 20:15, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

• Result: No action, since User:Horse Eye's Back has apologized and has undone their last change. I hope that editors will join in the thread at Talk:2022 Winter Olympics#Changes to the last sentence of the lead. EdJohnston (talk) 01:16, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

I've pointed out that a strong claim in the article isn't supported by the articles cited, and changed the language to be more tentative. Snooganssnoogans is repeatedly and aggressively reverting my change without engaging properly on the talk page (despite multiple invitations to discuss).

• No violation – there must be four or more reverts within a 24 hour period for the

Hello, This user/IP 86.42.255.134 has repeatedly vandalised the article COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland for many weeks now and fellow editors of this article, including myself and 51.171.196.150 have warned the above IP to stop vandalising. This IP has repeatedly reverted my good faith edits for no particular reason. Please look at the talk page to see the discussion at Talk:COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland#Restore Active cases. This IP repeatedly says that his/her's edits are "right" and mine are "wrong". This IP only does this because this IP wants statistics of this pandemic on his/her's "forum site". I'm only just an editor of Wikipedia, trying to do my job, but I don't think Wikipedia is supposed to be used for a forum site. This IP repeatedly demands me to restore the so called "correct" figure of active cases on the pandemic artilce which is incorrect because Ireland's pandemic's active cases figure has not been updates since July and this IP thinks that Ireland has 55k+ active cases of COVID-19 in Ireland which is clearly incorrect. 51.171.196.150 and myself have repeatedly told this IP to stop and this IP just does not listen. I don't know what to do other than reporting this IP. Thank you so much. Edl-irishboy (talk) 19:18, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

I haven't edited the page for weeks now, check back through the page history, see if I made any edits that go back weeks. I undid my last change after I saw the warning, so I did listen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.42.255.134 (talk) 22:55, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

I mentioned "weeks" as an exaggeration. Just please don't keep reverting my edits of active cases and recoveries on the article, then it will be fine. This whole issue has been discussed already on the talk page of the article, which resulted in the re-removal of the active cases and the re-revert of the recoveries figure, and so I don't know why you still reverted my edit for active cases & recoveries yesterday evening... Edl-irishboy (talk) 01:14, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Well just a piece of advice, maybe you shouldn't make exaggerations like that in the future, some people might take that the wrong way. I haven't made any edits to the page since I myself undid my previous edit hours ago. That should send a message I won't be editing that page anymore. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.42.255.134 (talk) 01:53, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

As for why that last edit happened. I didn't see your warning until after I edited the page, once I saw that, I undid my edit myself. I don't do much editing on this site or ever been in a situation like this before in my many years of visiting this site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.42.255.134 (talk) 01:55, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Greetings! Committee. This report is on the editor above's continuous reverting of changes made in the above article. I attempted attaching a statement in one of my edit summaries, but it seemed to have no effect as the editor went ahead to revert the changes I made. I didn't want to confront him directly as that might lead to hot exchanges, so I decided reporting to an admin who referred me here. Even now, I fear he would go ahead to revert the changes I made last. Please, help us out. Thanks. Kambai Akau (talk) 22:54, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

This user started this edit-warring behavior yesterday and continued to ignore suggestions to discuss first on the talk page before making any reversion. Normchou ^💬 18:02, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

I have warned the editor for the edit summaries, either they don't understand the concept of consensus or they’re falsely claiming consensus where none exists. Also adding the first discussion about this to the Diffs of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page, Stonksboi and the IP’s edits were identical. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 18:09, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

• Projection? I have discussed with you that boycotts and controversial related matters belong in the appropriate subsection rather than the lead section as in all other past and future Olympic articles. I asked you why the 2022 games deserved to be treated differently to which you ignored and accused me of disruptive editing which frankly isn't true. Do not make false reports again. Stonksboi (talk) 18:15, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

Yes you did ask me about this topic on my talk page [119][120] I responded promptly [121], you never responded to me. You have not participated in the discussion on the article talk page so I’m not really sure what you’re talking about. I also didn't report you. I also want to note that while you talked about parts of this issue in your post on my talk page the only one who has ever actually "asked you why the 2022 games deserved to be treated differently” on a talk page was the IP. Are you also the IP? Horse Eye's Back (talk) 18:21, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

My comment was meant for Normchou. Also, no I am not the "IP" person who made those edits. I did see his comments though and he is correct. The most recent changes I made to the article did not change the controversy subsection at all, but rather kept the main section of the article in line as with other Olympic articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stonksboi (talk • contribs) 18:35, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

Nobody has ever taken issue with your edits to the subsection because as far as I can tell you have never edited that subsection despite multiple claims in edit summaries and elsewhere to have “moved” something to that subsection. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 18:41, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: Edit Summary Warning and User Talk Page Warning

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: I told the editor in the edit summaries to take the issue to the talk page but he ignored that and kept reverting. I then posted a warning to his talk page and he ignored that too.

Comments:
This editor keeps reverting on the basis that the article contains a spoiler (a title change was taped on December 22 for the episode airing on December 25). A couple of editors, including myself, have reverted this editor, informing him of how Wikipedia handles this content. Instead of listening, he kept reverting. I warned him about 3RR, yet he continued to revert. I then posted a warning on his talk page, yet he continued to revert. --JDC808 ♫ 10:25, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

@User:Normchou I didn't revert your editing three times in a day. Instead, I'm completing contents in WP to avoid one-sided narrative. All my completion comes Most of the sections I completed come from the same source already existed, yet they original ones are referred with bias or unbalanced.

@TranscendentMe: I asked you to discuss at 19:27 [155] and at 19:43 [156]. Your revert started at 19:32 and you kept adding/removing stuff at 20:06, 20:14, and 20:35. Only after that, at 20:36, you "discussed" on the talk page. Normchou ^💬 20:59, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello admins, the editor has been trying to add non-notable awards to the table of awards received by GFriend. They have been warned twice about edit warring, reverted by three different editors: Paper9oll, EN-Jungwon, and myself. I even opened a talk page discussion [203] to discuss and resolve the changes, to which they haven't responded and have continued to behave in the same manner.

• Blocked for 31h--Ymblanter (talk) 15:34, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

Dear

CuriousGolden notified Haydar Pamuk about 3RR violation only at 14:40, 26 December 2020 - at the same time when reporting him here at 14:40, 26 December 2020 (does not look like Haydar Pamuk had a chance to reflect on his actions before the block), while making 4 reverts in 24 hours himself - please see my report below. Regards, Armatura (talk

) 15:42, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

The whole talk page of Haydar Pamuk is full of warnings and in fact does not contain anything else. For a user with 14 edits this is not a good Wikipedia start, and they should be happy that they were only blocked for 31 hours. I often block such users indefinitely per

WP:NOTHERE.--Ymblanter (talk

) 15:47, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Thank you, Ymblanter. While not arguing that there are warnings on his page (although 4 out 5 being by a single user - himself actively reverting) , the 3RR violation warning was given at the same time as reporting him on noticeboard per 3RR, which, to a user with only 14 edits, might not be the kindest approach - he simply might not have been aware of the 3RR, he did not get a warning about 3RR rule before being reported and hence he might not have had a chance to familiarize himself with 3RR and reflect on his activity violating it. He might have made those edits in good faith, as he volunteered to GA review the article. What do you think? Regards Armatura (talk) 18:01, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

As I already mentioned, I think that the user is

not here to built an encyclopedia and must feel happy that tomorrow they can continue editing. Probably not for long though unless they radically change their attitude.--Ymblanter (talk

The editor keeps reverting attempts to return to the status quo ante while the issue is discussed on the Talk page (I have added the latest reversion to the list above) and accuses anyone who attempts to return to the last stable version of the article of being anti-Turkish bigots. He does not wish to discuss the subject matter (and has said so in the Talk page, as CMD pointed out) and does not appear to

More appropriately, the user is tried to fool us more times, since invented various fake reasons to revert, first he stated on the edit log we should discuss on the talk page when already a discussion was opened which he ignored then, another time he claimed he is restoring the original content, which was not the status quo ante version, but the version he pushed. The status quo version is what I reset (and equals with the last stable version as well). The user already breached 3RR earlier, however just because of Christmas I did not report him immediately, but contrary the warnings and discussions, the disruptive editing continued.(KIENGIR (talk) 15:13, 27 December 2020 (UTC))

• Comment by uninvolved editor. As far as I can see, there is no 3RR breach. In any case, nobody should rush to block Bato who is an established editor with clear block and AE logs. He even did not get warned for edit warring. Instead, I would like to have an admin keep an eye on the article, as it is having many edits and some reverts by several editors. As for the "friends" comment made by the filer, well he is the one here sanctioned at AE as part of a group of disruptive editors. I suggest everyone focus on improving content rather than on accusations and redundant disagreements.

@Bato: It's really sad you pretend that the quotes were already included into the relevant parts of the article.

Here's a similar failed report against another editor with whom he was in a dispute [239] for "maxing out 3RR"; he likewise supports another report against an editor he had a dispute with[240]. Noticeboards shouldn't be instrumentalized to win disputes. Now, Khirurg and Alexikoua whose report he recently supported have a total of 4 reverts and Khirurg is attacking other editors even when fixing minor edits ("fixed incompetent editing

  ").

  Alexikoua was recently reported for a crystal clear violation of 3RR which nobody disputed [241]. Khirurg then argued that Alexikoua shouldn't be blocked because of "tagteaming" (not withstanding the fact that constantly they and Alexikoua find themselves on the same side of every dispute I've observed, which shows a much more consistent pattern than the collection of editors he's ever made this claim against). One can see highly representative behavior on that thread: although Khirurg claims the most minor of edits are sanctionable when put forward by editors he disagrees with, when an editor he constantly finds himself on the same side of the aisle is reported for obvious edit-warring, Khirurg barrages the filing editor and others with personal attacks and bewildering claims that they are "motivated by a desire for revenge".

  If we as a community are serious about fixing the problems that are glaringly evident here, the obvious fix is at the very least a reprimand for Khirurg to stop using reports in this manner. But at the very least, the

  WP:GAMING of noticeboards should stop.--Maleschreiber (talk

As expected with the filibuster and spin. Your friend Βατο breached 3RR. There is no requirement that he be warned beforehand. He has been warned plenty of times in the past [242] [243], to little effect. He recently has been edit-warring like mad all over these articles on Epirus/Illyria, especially here [244]. Τhat article is now a cluttered, unreadable mess, largely due to the badly written, ham-fisted, additions of Βατο. This topic area has spun out of control. If we as a community are serious about fixing this, violations of 3RR should be dealt with promptly.

It's actually not the first time Bato misunderstands the use of citations and the placing of tags. In general this instant reverting pattern is highly disruptive not to mention that he new that he would breach 3rr. He has been warned in his tp a couple of times recently but in vain.Alexikoua (talk) 01:05, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

You should warn editors whom you consider to be edit-warring (Warn the user if you have not already done so.). Now, I think that you didn't warn Bato because there was nothing to warn him about. Despite your claims that he has been "edit-warring like mad" you are asking from the community to count as a particularly disruptive revert an edit by Bato which changed Apollonia was an Ancient Greek trade colony in Illyria to Apollonia in Illyria was an Ancient Greek trade colony [245]. It really highlights the instrumentalization of the report function and the very bad use of community discussions. Editors are reported in order to stop an active disruption. Such minor edits are neither disruptive or worthy of any discussion at ANI. You can't ask for anyone to be blocked or even warned about something like that. --Maleschreiber (talk) 01:52, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Oh, so it went from "it's not a 3RR violation", to "it was just a minor change". What's "minor" to one user is not minor to another. Βατο has been pushing a very strong "Illyrian" POV for years now. In the diffs from today alone, he removed a reliable source (Stocker) and misrepresented another (Cabanes). For that alone he should be blocked.

There was no 3RR violation and the change of Apollonia was an Ancient Greek trade colony in Illyria to Apollonia in Illyria was an Ancient Greek trade colony is not a particularly disruptive edit/revert in any way, shape or form. I don't think that anyone should be blocked about anything if there is no disruption. I'm not even fond of blocks per se. And I am of the opinion that no editor should be dragged through a report which hypes minor edits as something which they're not. --Maleschreiber (talk) 02:28, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

You're not fond of blocks, eh? That's why just recently you wrote 10 kb of text in a futile attempt to get another editor blocked [246]? Yeah, you're not fond of blocks, but only if it's from editors that share your POV. The "minor edit" was mine [247]. The fact that Βατο reverted even that, shows strong

Because they were using bibliography in a very bad way and had made 4 clear content reverts. The lesson from that discussion was that many issues should probably be discussed at AE.--Maleschreiber (talk) 17:53, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

The one who is guilty of source misuse is Βατο, who in one of the reverts above used a source to make a claim not backed by the source. And it doesn't matter if "you are not fond of blocks". You are not an admin around here. Why are you trying to sound like one?

Khirurg (talk

) 19:30, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Source misuse with original research interpretation is Alexikoua's pattern, not mine. The false statement misrepresented another (Cabanes) highlights your unconstructive pattern in Wikipedia, you haven't even checked the sources. Kyle et al. and McIlvaine et al. are not commenting on Hammond's suggestions, they used them along with Cabanes' and other scholars' proposals to make their own conclusions, it can be easily seen if you read the sources, but for you it is better to

WP:CHERRYPICK sources and to add only what you like, ignoring other scholars' considerations. In that specific edit I added further quotes from the sources because Alexikoua used them incorrectly as considering the information supported only by Hammond, when actually it was not the case. Anyway, that is just one of the edits, and it is content dispute that should be discussed in the article's talk page, not here. Returning to this discussion, there is not 3rr violation, one of the presumed reverts was actually a source fix with the use of Harv-style reference. Also I fail to see a warning in my talk page, which clearly shows that there was not edit war. – Βατο (talk

You have the nerve to break 3RR and then claim "there was not edit war", because of a technicality. Speaks for itself.

Khirurg (talk

But there is no 3RR disruption and you shouldn't have filed a report which asks from the community to block someone you disagree with because they changed Apollonia was an Ancient Greek trade colony in Illyria to Apollonia in Illyria was an Ancient Greek trade colony. As we're getting close to a day after the supposed "disruptive editing" nothing has happened in terms of editing. If there was disruptive editing which required for anyone to be blocked, where is the continued disruption? The fact that you're still trying to put forward a narrative that requires for Bato to be blocked even though nothing has actually happened in my book looks like instrumentalization of the report in order to score points against another editor. Such use of community noticeboards lowers the quality of the project and makes collaboration very difficult.--Maleschreiber (talk) 17:53, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Page protected – 5 days. Please air these disagreements more fully on the talk page.

WP:ARBEE sanctions. If the quality of discussion doesn't improve, admins ought to consider indefinite full protection of the article, with changes being put in only through edit requests. EdJohnston (talk

) 22:14, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Note: As soon as the specific article was protected a new round of revert-warring by the same editor has been launched in similar articles:

• Amantia: 2rvs: [[248]][[249]] (erasing a specific part about Greek-Latin bilingualism)
• Bylliones: 1rv: [[250]], accompanied by commentsthat reveal complete lack of AFG [[251]].

It's really sad that instead of a providing some kind of apology or explanation above Bato preferred to launch a new round of disruption without even waiting for this report to close.Alexikoua (talk) 19:53, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Editors must stop characterising as disruption their disagreements with other editors. Khirurg has two reverts at Bylliones, but you don't consider that disruptive since his reverts are supporting edits which you have put forward. I don't consider any revert(s) to be "disruptive" per se, but I do consider disruptive the instrumentalization of reports as a tool for content disputes.--Maleschreiber (talk) 23:09, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Um...the third and fourth reverts were cleaning up vandalism. The page was semi-protected to prevent vandalism (I was out for a walk as this was all happening), and after I came back, I saw the page was protected because of vandalism. I went to check the edit history to see if there was any vandalism needing to be cleaned up (there was), so that is what the third/fourth reverts are for. Please keep in mind that those two reverts are exempt to 3RR per

@GngZack: you can open a talk discussion on the talk page, as it is not semi-protected. Talk pages usually are never protected. D🎅ggy54321 ^(ho-ho-ho) 15:02, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

I don't know why the user claims the third and fourth reverts are due to vandalism when they're reverting the same changes that the first two were reverting. All four reverts are reverting edits made to help the wiki article adhere to the guidelines. GngZack (talk) 07:13, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

The page was protected to prevent vandalism because there was persistent vandalism that was being added to the page. Per

WP:VAND, an example of vandalism is illegitimately blanking pages. The user in reverts 3/4 was blanking parts of the page out, so I reverted it. I would have used the rollback tool/the "restore this version" Twinkle tool to revert their edits in one go, but there had already been more edits to the page (such as more vandalism being reverted and the page being protected), which I couldn’t revert.

No violation – Successive edits count as at most one revert. Even so, the IAR defence is not convincing and I't suggest it not be relied on in the future. The claim by User:Doggy54321 that they were reverting vandalism is not credible. Many content removals are done in good faith. Removal of content is only considered vandalism when it is done for the purpose of damaging the article, which was not the case here. EdJohnston (talk) 17:38, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
