Hello. The user who initiated the initial edit ( 23:11, 3 December 2014‎ 71.235.154.73) after a long period of quiet on this article, and subsequently as user NotTechimo, is an online retailer. He has COI and is adding negative spin to a previously neutral (edited by 45 editors over 7 years) article about a merchant ratings site to serve his personal agenda, which is that he does not like the site (see his initial edit comment where he stated, "Because this article is nothing more than an advertisement for this business, and leaves out many of the facts of the dark side of this company." I (and apparently other people from several IPs) have been undoing his edits. Today, I am attempting to work with his latest edit despite his COI, by allowing edits minus the hyperbole/negative spin. So far, he is insisting on adding a poorly sourced negative section called Controversy which appears to be at the heart of his agenda, to support his cause. In any case, I don't think he should be editing the page and I think that all of his edits should be reverted for COI. 99% of my edits have been reversions to his added text until today. I understand WIkipedia's policies regarding edit warring and I am attempting to resolve the conflict with civil edits and collaboration. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Techimo (talk • contribs)

Normally one would show each of the reverts, but in this incidence I really cannot be bothered as there are soooooooo many. Instead I will just show the revision history [5]. I mean just look at the revision history, it is ridiculous. I am aware that two other editors were involved in this edit war, however I fairly warned all users on the article talk page and tried to resolve this dispute on the talk page instead [6]. After I warned them, one editor told me "Don't be ignorant" before continuing to edit war. I find this behaviour completely unacceptable and disruptive to Wikipedia. I think Wikipedia is a better off without an editor like this. Also this user has unilaterally moved the article title without consensus an with the proper WP:RM procedure. Whilst other editors may have violated Wikipedia policy, I think this particular editor deserves a more severe punishment. Kind regards IJA (talk) 21:33, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

• Warned The user is new. I've warned the user. Come back if the disruption restarts. Wifione ^Message 23:55, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

Allow me to weigh in. When I came across the B-theory of time, it was in extremely poor condition, it mostly contained information regarding A-series of time (despite there being a page on A-series and B-series), additionally there was a single paragraph on the physics support B-theory has (which is where is had become popular recently) as opposed to A-thoery which is less scientific and popular with other groups, and the physics potentially behind B-theory. The remaining (50%) writing on the page was several paragraphs on William Craig a somewhat Christian fundamentalist, theologian philosopher. The article described his opinions on the theory, and there are a number of problems with that.

The first problem is that most of the paragraphs did not even state that those beliefs were Craig or even that they were beliefs, for example, "B theory suffers a incoherence as all other theories, that time is illusionary. The Buddhist can consistently deny the reality of the physical world, since the illusion of physicality does not entail physicality, but this is not the case with temporal becoming", except this was not stated as a belief of Craig but or as opinion/belief at all, but as a fact outright, (note Craig (a Christian) making a dig at Buddhist philosophy).

The second is much more fundamental, the problem is that this type of writing does not belong on this type of page. The page is an academic page on Physics and scientific philosophy. The theme of the views (which were Craig's) were aggressive, they were also written in a format that mislead the reader into thinking this was by far the general consensus, or a major position on the matter (to give you an idea what I',m talking about, Craig views (though some not even stated as views) were placed in the description of B-theory section as opposed to a new section on opposition). The 'philosophy' certainly wasn't worth any recognition in the academic community, and hence hasn't been. Reword the paragraphs you say? Well, most of it was even beyond that, it was just babble that had no academic founding, it was mostly juts random ranting. Craig has also been criticised by the academic community for pushing A-theory. The fact is the page was not much philosophy but a collection of Craig's religous-oriented rants and opinions (for lack of a better word). It was the type of information that belonged Craig biographical page under 'views and opinion' rather than a academic page. I should note that there was perhaps one small paragraph potentially worth keeping which I kept, however after further reading the statements contracted themselves, Craig argued against yet his quotes supported the theory, additionally the book where these views were from was a book, was won theories of time but also on the physics behind them. The book was completely rejected by the community and labelled pseudoscientific (books reviews also tell of this, particularly Craig completely misunderstanding relativity).

User:TMDrew had continuously reverted these edits, time and time again, he was also responsible, I believe, for putting the Craig information in, in the first place. Despite me giving reasons for removing the content, User:TMDrew continuously undid my edits. It was then I noticed that User:TMDrew is a Christian, and I do believe he may have some sort of personal conflict or personal agenda with the article.

After continuously undoing edits, and after me giving reasons, and warning him, on the edit description, talk page AND his user page, he has continued. He is continuously adding information (Craig's ranting) onto the page that does not belong, he has worded it in ways that mislead the reader into thinking they were facts supported by the community, and in his most recent edit HE REMOVED THE ONLY SCIENTIFIC PARAGRAPH on the page. The page was left them with a bunch of information A-theory and ranting by Craig written in a misleading way. Hence my reason for issuing said warning.

Finally it should be noted from looking talk page he has had numerous disputes over this with User:Mojowiha, where User:TMDrew has removed previously vandalised the page demoing physics information, removing information telling the reader that the theory was supported by physics when it was. User:Mojowiha also had problems with User:TMDrew's editing in regards to his favorability of Craig. From what I have seen User:TMDrew is serving personal agenda.

Editor insists on adding improper sources to substantiate unsourced claim in article, despite an active RFC that has not reached consensus. He has now accused me of PoV pushing so I do not believe that this is something that can be resolved through non-admin channels ReformedArsenal (talk) 12:50, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

I have not been edit warring with ReformedArsenal, ReformedArsenal has been edit warring with everyone in the article/discussion. I have not edit the article since November 21 [10] as I reverted a IP then unitil now: [11] This was my first time reverting ReformedArsenal with the edit summary: RfC support/reverting POV pusher. ReformedArsenal is the only one actually reverting multiple editors in the article God the Son: Revision history: [12]. I and In ictu oculi have been arguing with ReformedArsenal in the discussion as all disputes go about proper sources which was provided. ReformedArsenal did not approve of anything we offered, so ReformedArsenal requested RfC on November 24: [13]. Majority RfC volunteers suggested sources were required, which the main argument of the discussion was sources provided. It wasn't until editor Elmmapleoakpine tried to place sources in the article that support my side of the argument today: [14]. ReformedArsenal reverted. That is when my revert came in via RfC support/reverting POV pusher. Like always in the article, ReformedArsenal revered me back today: [15], then reported me here to AN3. In my opinion through the edit history of the article and discussion, through the multiple reverts done in the article by ReformedArsenal, the arguments against some of the RfC volunteers by ReformedArsenal, and now me on AN3, I believe ReformedArsenal is trying to avoid general consensus via WP:GAME. — JudeccaXIII (talk) 18:21, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

• Comment this could WP:BOOMERANG. Does WP:ANI really need notifying of a consensus of editors retaining "Paris is the capital of France" style blindingly obvious content because not many modern sources state the blindingly obvious. Reformed Arsenal (well named, apparently) is taking not taking issue with the truthfulness of longstanding content in the article (namely that the Latin formula Deus Filius "God the Son" is a term from the Athanasian Creed etc rather than the Bible) but merely with the 19th century sources that bother to state what was in the 19th century still a surprise to some people. Reformed Arsenals RFC was already timewasting enough. As before, let Reformed Arsenal indicate which of dozens 19th Century source he accepts for the ref he demands for the article content he accepts is truthful factual and obvious, but which he was challened, and close this waste of ANI time with a trout.

Comments: User is attempting to restore an incomplete plot synopsis simply because a complete, concise synopsis was put in its' place without being discussed on the talk page. Prior to the changes made, the article had not been edited for a significant period of time and the poorly written, incomplete synopsis was left in place without any due attention.76.31.249.221 (talk) 18:47, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

• Uninvolved editor's comment; FelixRosch has not violated 3RR. They have only reverted three times over the last couple of days, with the previous revert being on the 15th. Your diffs are also not correct, since some of them point to your own reverts. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 18:54, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
• IP editor has edited from what appears to be a single purpose account. The IP editor was not answering any Talk requests or BRD requests and I left a message inviting the IP editor to open an account and stop reverting without Talk. I tried to restore the text to the original version from November as being more accurate. Eventual one message was left by the IP editor, and then another editor contacted my Talk page apparently to support the IP editor. If reviewing Administrator feels that the single purpose IP account edit is justified then it can stand as is, otherwise someone else can have it restored to the previous November version. I can be reached on my Talk page for further information as required. FelixRosch (TALK) 16:28, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

The user also received a warning previously for uncivil behaviour and is biased and is seemingly anti-Islamic. He/She has not listened to discussing it on the talk page and continues to revert and argue Luxure Σ 12:25, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

• Both editors blocked – for a period of 24 hours It is clear that User:Luxure is well aware of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring, but has nevertheless continually edit-warred. (Apart from anything else, this report demonstrates awareness of the policy.) On the other hand, User:Yezohtz2 has never been warned about edit warring (the edits linked above under "Diffs of edit warring / 3RR warning" mention "unconstructive edits", "edits that appear disruptive", "reports that ... are UNCONFIRMED by law agencies", "remains unconfirmed", etc etc, but not edit warring) and I therefore would have merely warned Yezohtz2 had it not been for this edit in which he or she indicates an awareness of the fact that edit warring is unacceptable. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:16, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

JamesBWatson (talk) thank you for overseeing this complaint and I profusely apologise for any inconvience User:Luxure and I caused by this silly, trivial (I'm a maths guy too!) matter. We should have known better but it escalated quickly. Yezohtz2 (talk) 16:28, 17 December 2014 (UTC)4

@JamesBWatson: Do you see how this editor is being uncivil and insults me? He accuses me of being a Jihadi (both [here] and on my talk page, saying that it is his business that I state my religion and nationality. I think (I'm not entirely sure) Wikipedia has a policy about good faith and no personal attacks. The editor has also been uncivil in the past. The user is also anti-Islamic. In 2 weeks it will be 2015. There is no place in today's world for people like this. I have had past experiences with editors like this before, even though it says on my userpage that I am Australian, I was accused of being a completely different ethnicity because I believed that the addition of one word made the paragraph POV. This escalated into a full edit war of personal attacks (in this instance I stopped after 3, I was a wary new editor.) If you really want to see what it escalated to, [here]. Please note, it takes a while to load (Australian Internet). I was first accused of being a sockpuppet of another editor because I agreed with them, then another editor came and I was the puppeteer, and then I got reported to ArbCom for a technical mistake, and the editor who reported me didn't even consult me! I do not like to be insulted like this, and I can see this editor in the previous editors, claiming things with no evidence at all. Sorry for the rant, but you may want to consider what the user has said. Luxure Σ 00:16, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

I love being ignored. Luxure Σ 01:00, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

@Luxure: Luxure Σ I am neither pro-Islam or anti. I care about reliable sources and updating articles. Do you also? Or you are dictated in your editing by a pro-Islamic agenda? Refute the claim then. If you are not a Jihadi, why don't you refute the claim? You have had ample opportunity now to do so. And I withdrew calling you a Jihadi (see edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Edit_warring&diff=638511719&oldid=638510067) after consulting with Wikipedia's community and valuing the need for civil conversation. But personally, you have demonstrated a clear pro-Mohammedan agenda. Even after your nation of Australia was ruthlessly attacked by Islamic State, you have the nerve to demand pro-Islamism??? It can be argued that you have blood on your hands for whitewashing the Islamic terrorist 2014 Sydney hostage crisis. Yezohtz2 π 20:13, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

@Yezohtz2:You are delusional, if you truly think that. I don't want to know what gremlins hide under your bed. Also, thanks for copying my signature! You even included my particular affinity for Hellenic lettering. At least you like the signature of an apparent (to you) Jihadi! Luxure Σ 11:20, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:This user insists on posting pictures of celebrities and claiming they are "whitr" not bringing any source To confirm his claims. I tried To discuss the issue on the article's talk page but now he is edit-warring. He is doing the same on Pardo article

almost every, if not every ethnic/race page has an unsourced gallery with pictures of individuals belonging to that group in it. i think this issue is him/her cherry picking particular articles and editing/blanking it with malicious intent. NBAkid (talk) 12:30, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

@NBAkid: Yesterday, I reviewed your editing at this and other articles, as well as your history, and you have a disturbing pattern of aggression and edit warring. Comments like "malicious intent" don't help. The only reason I didn't block you was because you didn't breach WP:3RR, although you came close and you don't have to breach 3RR to be blocked. You also appear to have stopped battling, at least for the moment. Nonetheless, you are Warned that if you edit-war at this or any other article (you seem to distribute your battles), you may be blocked without notice.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:42, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

User being reported:

There is an edit war by several users going on at Visa policy of the United Arab Emirates, so I guess it should be protected. Thank you.--Twofortnights (talk) 11:55, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

• Declined The report here is malformed. You might want to go to WP:RFPP to request page protection. only (talk) 12:47, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Even if the request is malformed you can't decline it for what is a purely technical issue because the edit warring is taking place there and this IS a noticeboard for edit warring - diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff - all in 24 hours. If you think protecting this page will take too much of your free time then just ignore this notice, don't decline it.
  • Also I see a few decisions on this page saying "page protected" so I don't think you are right that such a decision can't be made here. Is this a typical bureaucratic sending off of a good Samaritan to another window? I mean why don't you go to WP:RFPP and report it there? Or at least move my request to the appropriate place? Because I only noticed it, I didn't take part in it, so I am as obliged to go around Wikipedia chasing the right bureaucratic window as you are.--Twofortnights (talk) 13:02, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
    • Anyway, thanks User:Bbb23 for protecting the article.--Twofortnights (talk) 17:13, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
      • (edit conflict) Twofortnights, you created a report here without following the instructions. You didn't report a particular user. You didn't include diffs until after the fact, and then you lash out at the admin for not doing your work for you. Yes, nothing obliges you to report this, but if you're going to report it, then do it right. Some leeway may be given for malformed reports, but that is up to the administrator evaluating the report, and in this instance the administrator's decision was completely in process. In any event, I've semi-protected the article for 10 days because more than one IP is involved in the battle. I'm also closing this report to further comments.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:19, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
        • You criticize me for "lashing out" by literally lashing out at me? And then closing the discussion you've just started? Anyway - my work? How exactly is it my work? I didn't have any obligation whatsoever. Aren't we supposed to always have our actions here directed at improving Wikipedia? How exactly does it serve Wikipedia to ignore a serious ongoing issue because the report wasn't filed the right way per whatever bureaucratic rule? In my book, even if the report was filed in a completely wrong place it should be addressed, and this was like calling the police by accident and telling them about a heart attack and them coldly saying "The number you have dialed is of the police service. Please dial 123 for the emergency medical service". How can respect for the procedure take precedent over the respect for the purpose of those procedures? All these bureaucratic procedures are in place to make functioning easier, but if they sometimes slow it all down or make it harder, then they should be ignored.
        • Anyway, all rhetoric questions above, as you've closed the discussion, but please, I really beg you to read this - [54] so you can find out why this attitude is not appreciated to the extent it is destroying Wikipedia. I know I am not conveying the message, I am not good at it at all, I've had many issues before with people who would take offense, but that above is a piece by a professional journalist, so please ignore me, and read that. Thank you.--Twofortnights (talk) 17:47, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Problem editor gaming the system and flying under the radar for years, pushing POV, disrespecting consensus guidelines, talk guidelines, and edit warring with numerous editors repeatedly. For ultima ratio will alter any content claiming WP:PA --Wuerzele (talk) 10:40, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

This is a warning related to November 30 edit warring: [87]

The current problem worth noting also is that since 9 December 2014 there is an ongoing NPOV dispute related to the lead section of the Bitcoin article, during which User:Fleetham made several edits to the lead section.

As an example, take [88]. This edit is particularly interesting in that it disrespects the consensus built in Talk:Bitcoin#Synthesis in the lead section. Ladislav Mecir (talk) 12:21, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Note also that the editwarring is observable at both the Talk:Bitcoin page as well as at the Bitcoin page. Ladislav Mecir (talk) 17:33, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

• Declined. If Fleetham were edit warring in the article, that would be different, but he's reverting inclusion of material that is, in my view, unnecessarily personally attacking. If you want to complain about resolution of the content dispute, Wuerzele, you can do so without your history of Fleetham's "disruption"; indeed, in one part you even called it vandalism.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:37, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Bbb23, I dont understand why you say "If Fleetham were edit warring in the article, that would be different". Fleetham is edit warring on Bitcoin per the diffs from 16 Dec, 10 Dec, 30 Nov. He had been warned by admin EdJohnston in the December ANI that he was editwarring, and yet he did it again.

I am sorry to involve you in a situation that is quite multilayered and protracted, but I chose this the 3RR noticeboard, because 3RR seems the most straightforward to prove to someone, who is not participating on the Bitcoin page and seeing the dynamics day to day.--Wuerzele (talk) 20:12, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Following no rules.

• First edit was not a revert, I would've tagged the last source as {{dubious}} as well, but the user may not be aware of it. While none of these concerns about the sources have been resolved, I would say that they must remain and the page should be protected as per my request on WP:RFPP that I had made half an hour ago. OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 01:01, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Can you tell Justice if you are not edit warring? You are also using the most absurd references like blogspot. VandVictory (talk) 01:11, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

• 5 edits [94] by VandVictory. Maybe new reference need more debate other references are part of RFC dispute why is he not discussion in RFC why is he tagwarring. ---TheSawTooth (talk) 01:20, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Justice has also made 5 edits and made false edit summaries, his intention was to remove tags so that these sources may sound real. RFC is not about the sources, it is about the validity of result. Discussion is there and you have equally failed to provide any explanations. VandVictory (talk) 01:25, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Justice has not done 5 revisions. You are making revision edits my friend. ---TheSawTooth (talk) 01:29, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

• 8 of Justice, and he is still using fake edit summaries. VandVictory (talk) 01:36, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

• This is unbelievable editwar VaV is into with the IP and three editors; having done 15 reverts (he has also reverted my singleton restore of pre-edit war stable version). Blatantly against WP:EW... discussing or not, he and the IP have crossed all limits. FYI, justice did only two reverts and an unrelated new addition (not rv) and does not even live in Pakistan for the IP to be his.. atleast do some homework. I also suggest that VaV's version be plain out reverted before locking the page under IAR just to not give him the satisfaction of getting his version locked in (an obvious thing to happen with so many editors involved), though a block of VaV and the IP will make an equal, perhaps better, argument. To note further in favour of the latter option, the article wasn't under editwar anymore even with contentious disagreement rather an RFC was being pursued now, and VaV's silly tag editwar tends to disrupt the process by stirring things up likely even creating hostility between editors engaged in discussion. --lTopGunl (talk) 02:07, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

• Block becomes unnecessary if the page is going to be protected. It is less of a matter that how many people have edit warred for removing maintenance templates. URLs of blogspots are particularly removed on sight. OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 02:18, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

• Page protected now. OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 02:25, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

I "wondered" whether the IP 223.29.225.35 was actually a logged out but involved editor... _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 17:25, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

Can't tell. But I've blocked one two editors already out there. Watching further and keeping this open. Wifione ^Message 00:31, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

223.29.225.35 was also TheSawTooth. Because his last one[97] removed issue tags just like he did with the IP all the time. Now he is not able to abuse that ip because he is blocked now. VandVictory (talk) 09:37, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

There's no need to make allegations and connect IPs to real users. If you have issues about socking, take it to SPI. Other than that, you are close to getting blocked yourself, given the history of your edit warring. Do be careful and stop reverting. I don't want to invoke sanctions on the page unless the edit warring again gets over the top. Wifione ^Message 11:03, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

Victory You accuse Justice now me. I have "remember password" option check in my computer I do not log out. Do not accuse every one turn by turn people use IPs it is not necessary to create account. @Wifione: he revised me that I am blocked but no other reason of revision he is at 16RR revision. I was not blocked when I made edit. It is part of editwar to revise legitimate revision of blocked editor. I move that you review him. Thank you. ---TheSawTooth (talk) 11:26, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

Although Jimjilin appears to be engaging in edit warring now at the noted article, I'm less concerned about this article and more concerned about the pattern she/he has established. I'm requesting advice specifically about that. There is a lengthy record (going back about 2 1/2 years) of reports of edit warring and blocks from the same on Jimjilin's user page. If Jimjilin doesn't understand the policies regarding edit warring and 3RR at this point, no one does. Yet Jimjilin continues to engage in edit warring. Is there a longer-term solution for this? Perhaps a longer block with a request to review Wikipedia's policies and a stronger warning to cease future edit warring? Thanks. Airborne84 (talk) 19:16, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

@Airborne84: I saw the notice about this thread on Jimjilin's talk page when I went to leave a message about removing text based only on a dead link. Looking through the talk page/edit history (and recalling past interactions at satanic ritual abuse and elsewhere), the overwhelming number of POV edits and ensuing edit wars over a period of years -- most of which stop short of 3RR violations -- suggest a pattern that may be better addressed via WP:ANI. --— Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 21:08, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

User is repeatedly changing the colors in the series overview table of the TV episode list article, without discussing such changes on the article's talk page first; several other editors have warned the user on the user's talk page regarding this matter; I have also warned the user for separate issues in the same article, more than a week ago, but this user exhibits a pattern of disruptive editing. The user has also performed similar disruptive edits (color changes) at List of Austin & Ally episodes and List of Dog with a Blog episodes. MPFitz1968 (talk) 22:13, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

As explained by MPFitz1968, the user has been changing colours without explanation or discussion at multiple pages. Despite the fact that he had been given a final warning for this,[125] I noticed that nobody had actually discussed the problem with him, which is why I posted this to his talk page. However, he chose not to discuss the matter and again changed colours at List of Jessie episodes, several hours after my post.[126] The change may seem minor, but the editor doesn't seem to want to collaborate, insisting on his, incorrect, change. --AussieLegend (✉) 23:43, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:

This user has been warned by administrators before regarding precisely this page. The user continues to edit contrary to consensus, continues to harass and now accuses me of sockpuppetry. Previous issue handled by Wifione TMD Talk Page. 11:28, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

You are persistently vandalising, I have reported you, but until you are blocked, you will continue to remove content and vandalise the page, hence my need for reverting your edits. There is no war as there is no dispute. DocHeuh (talk) 22:44, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Full story & full examples of persistent vandalism:

When I came across the B-theory of time, it was in extremely poor condition, it mostly contained information regarding A-series of time (despite there being a page on A-series and B-series), additionally there was a single paragraph on the physics support B-theory has (which is where is had become popular recently) as opposed to A-thoery which is less scientific and popular with other groups, and the physics potentially behind B-theory. The remaining (50%) writing on the page was several paragraphs on William Craig a somewhat Christian fundamentalist, theologian philosopher. The article described his opinions on the theory, and there are a number of problems with that.

The first problem is that most of the paragraphs did not even state that those beliefs were Craig or even that they were beliefs, for example, "B theory suffers a incoherence as all other theories, that time is illusionary. The Buddhist can consistently deny the reality of the physical world, since the illusion of physicality does not entail physicality, but this is not the case with temporal becoming", except this was not stated as a belief of Craig but or as opinion/belief at all, but as a fact outright, (note Craig (a Christian) making a dig at Buddhist philosophy).

The second is much more fundamental, the problem is that this type of writing does not belong on this type of page. The page is an academic page on Physics and scientific philosophy. The theme of the views (which were Craig's) were aggressive, they were also written in a format that mislead the reader into thinking this was by far the general consensus, or a major position on the matter (to give you an idea what I',m talking about, Craig views (though some not even stated as views) were placed in the description of B-theory section as opposed to a new section on opposition). The 'philosophy' certainly wasn't worth any recognition in the academic community, and hence hasn't been. Reword the paragraphs you say? Well, most of it was even beyond that, it was just babble that had no academic founding, it was mostly juts random ranting (read it yourself). Craig has also been criticised by the academic community for pushing A-theory. The fact is the page was not much philosophy but a collection of Craig's religous-oriented rants and opinions (for lack of a better word). It was the type of information that belonged Craig biographical page under 'views and opinion' rather than a academic page. I should note that there was perhaps one small paragraph potentially worth keeping which I kept, however after further reading the statements contracted themselves, Craig argued against yet his quotes supported the theory, additionally the book where these views were from was a book, was won theories of time but also on the physics behind them. The book was completely rejected by the community and labelled pseudoscientific (books reviews also tell of this, particularly Craig completely misunderstanding relativity).

User:TMDrew had continuously reverted these edits, time and time again, he was also responsible, for putting the Craig information in, in the first place.

I have given reason for said edits on his talk page, the B-thoery of time talk page, and on edit 'reasons'. I placed a vandalism warning on his page which he then took to an admin board, which I then had to explain his vandalisation there (admittedly I was wrong, and somewhat guilty in entering an edit war).

Despite me giving reasons for removing the content, User:TMDrew continuously undid my edits. It was then I noticed that User:TMDrew is a Christian, and I do believe he may have some sort of personal conflict or personal agenda with the article. He is continuously adding information (Craig's ranting) onto the page that does not belong, he has worded it in ways that mislead the reader into thinking they were facts supported by the community, and (here's the kicker) in his one of his most recent edit HE REMOVED THE ONLY SCIENTIFIC PARAGRAPH on the page. Leaving only ranting by a religious philosopher and a small section on A-thoery. This is obvious vandalism and he is clearly serving a personal agenda. After the vandalisation warning it had seemed to have solved itself, however, a short while ago, an IP address, undid the edits changing the page back to its original form, removing scientific content, adding religious babble, and portraying Craig's views a the consensus and sometimes stated as facts. It should be noted the IP address immediately commented on the conversation on the talk page between myself (Heuh) and User:TMDrew, commenting in a fashion and opinion extremely similar to TMDrew, he undid the edits in a very similar way to TMDrew, and his contribution list also records only the edit we are talking about now. It is clear this is TMDrew trying to appear as a third opinion. This is clearly disruptive behaviour.

Since this happened I have considerably tidied up the article and creating an article of a quality much higher than it was before. However, TMDrew keeps returning the article to its original state containing only babble about A-theory and religious and aggressive rants from Craig. Despite the fact that Craig's material doesn't belong, it demonstrates this users obvious vandalism, as a productive (but still wrong) user would edit the page to include Craig's views instead of reverting days of work entirely. I have since tried to edit the page to include some of Craig's views, though worded correctly, as quoted opinions, and not including the obvious religious rants about why Buddhism philosophies of time are inferior to the Christian version.

You merely need to read the version that user:TMDrew put in on Craig, to understand how awful it really is (be sure to notice the deliberate degrading of the rest of the article aswell). There is no dispute going on here, just someone vandalising, and someone trying there best to keep the vandalisation under control.

It should be noted from looking talk page he has had numerous disputes over this with User:Mojowiha, where User:TMDrew has removed previously vandalised the page, removing the physics information behind the theory, telling the reader that the theory wasn't supported by physics when it was. User:Mojowiha also had problems with User:TMDrew's editing in regards to Craig, and has to post vandalisation warning on his page (from the looks of it, User:Mojowiha from desperation. From what I have seen User:TMDrew is serving personal agenda.

To get a grasp of what kind of user User:TMDrew is, he regularly wipes his talk page to not show his conitnous vandalisation warnings and seeming obsession over Craig. He has fraudulently awarded himself a Barnstar of Diligence (you can see this by viewing his user page edit history), posing as a user named 'Bobby' (obviously with no linked profile). The reason I am telling you all of this is because I want to demonstrate that this is obvious vandalism. He has also (in this same argument) logged out to appear as his IP address, and I believe operates an alternate account User:Apologeticsaurus Rex. The reason or which is User:TMDrew awarded User:Apologeticsaurus Rex with a barnstar BEFORE HE MADE A SINGLE EDIT. THIS is the type of user you are dealing with here.

I realise this is not a page to report vandalism, but I believe the full story is needed to show you what is really going on. The report in general is ridiculous since the last report (which I will admit I was in the wrong, I should have reported him straight away, instead of edit warring), but since the last report, there has been ONE, only one revert, a revert of a case of obvious vandalism (adding opinions as fact, highly bias POV (removing information showing majority support for B-theory), removing some scientific information, and degrading quality of article in other areas.) There simply HASN'T BEEN AN EDIT WAR. Thanks. DocHeuh (talk) 17:28, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Edit warring a section merge with false claims of consensus, offering no contribution to the talk thread on the subject beyond some bad-faith/paranoia about Reddit and Wikipedia users who "deliberately want to sabotage the game by blowing this offline thing out of proportion".

User:BGWhite will NOT talk on article page. Only has discussions on his personal page. But with me he does not answer period. He doesn't make any reference to changes he makes. I thought I was making mistakes in editing. All of a sudden I'm attacked early this morning about everything.

Comments:Only has discussions on his personal page. But with me he does not answer period. He doesn't make any reference to changes he makes. These things just disappear. Or the formatting is deleted. And this is a major restructuring. I thought I was making mistakes in editing. All of a sudden I'm attacked verbally early this morning about everything. He does this with others to get them blocked. I'm thinking it has to do with subject matter he doesn't like.
VersoArts (talk) 15:21, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

In addition now I recall that the first time I was in TALK on the article he came along and attacked me verbally when I suggested the infobox, but has since deleted that entry. VersoArts (talk) 15:24, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

• Exactly how is Bgwhite edit-warring with you? They have made a grand total of six edits to the article; four or five of which are to remove HTML formatting and replace it with wikicode, one of those edits removed an unnecessary section, and the other edit was to remove that section again. Meanwhile, you have made a mediocre article even worse in my opinion, with a huge amount of unsourced stuff being added, in a poorly formatted and unencyclopedic way. Quite why this article needs a timeline with every tiny thing on it is beyond me. It is also very poorly formatted, despite Bgwhite's efforts. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 15:57, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

• I haven't edited on the article's talk page, so I don't know how I could in TALK on the article he came along and attacked me verbally when I suggested the infobox, but has since deleted that entry. Entries can't be deleted.
• I left a discussion on VersoArts talk page (User talk:VersoArts#Movement for the Survival of the Ogoni People) before they filed this ANI report. Message was on why I reverted. Not sure how that means I'm not talking. I also don't know what they are trying to say in their response to my message.
• They left six message on my talk page after I left a message on their talk page. The six message came within a two hour time period. The last one states, Again you chose to make the edits without responding. And I see that you get into warring positions outside of any involvement you have with articles. This may be done for blocking editors from articles you don't prefer. I am making a request for mediation before you entrap. Sigh, I guess if I'm sleeping I must respond or I'll entrap them.

    • I didn't say that he's making edits I don't agree with. He's making edits that are based on his limited knowledge of what's allowed on Wiki as MarkUp. And he's making COI a part of an edit on content. Also as me being a newbie, he's stepping on the toes of policy in Wiki about behavior. This is what he does. Goes and picks on newbies on Wiki as an administrator/editor making the issue muddled. He has no right to state he won't talk on Article TALK pages so he can be abusive on people's personal pages.

I came upon this user late last night. He is involved in edit war on several articles. I also strongly believe, looking from the edit history on several articles that this user has at least two registered accounts -> Lackope (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) and Mitrale89 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log).

User being reported: Deku-shrub (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Editor has continually added content I believe to be non-neutral and poorly-sourced since the article's creation in September. A look at the edit-history[137] shows large deletions of his content first by user:Schematica, then user:Wikidemon, then myself, but in each case similar content is restored shortly afterwards. I've asked the editor repeatedly to discuss their edits first, especially given a history of them being removed by myself and others[138], but the editor has continued posting similar content using guest blogs, forums, primary sources and sites with sketchy RS/NPOV and an edit-war seems to be emerging between the two of us.

I think it would be useful if the page was protected, so that consensus can be established before further edits are made to prevent the emerging edit-war (I was about to revert again, but I think we're probably verging on a 3RR type situation). CorporateM (Talk) 12:57, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

This is a new tier of Wiki-bureaucracy than I'm used to. Obviously you know what my goal is and I suppose I'm not doing it the correct format.

He's also reintroducing wrong information as he's cherry-picking information to include. I had corrected the type of short work on various titles (short story, novelette, novella), and that's been undone as well. Caidh participated a little in trying to keep the updates and changes I made, but his edit was reverted, too (it's one of the diffs above). ···日本穣^? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 18:24, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

I don't see your point of "why you had to correct the type of short work". I know what a short story and novella is, and added those to the titles like it has to be. And is a novelette not the same as a novella? By the way, all your edits on the article are present, I think, no? I don't really see the reason for all this chaos. Add whatever you want, as is your right, but do it good. Wikipedia makes use of references for a reason, so why include lines of text in a bibliography on a book which will only be published in like... 5 years?--J.A.R. Huygebaert (talk) 18:33, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:

The editor has been edit warring on various articles related to Ukrainian subject matter and refuses to engage in discussion on the corresponding talk pages. While he has breached 3RR on two articles, this is a slow and determined edit war.

Where he does introduce sources, they are WP:CHERRY in order to shoehorn Russification of the subject-matter. Generic volumes without peer reviews and blatantly WP:BIASED sources are not WP:RS and the editor has been reverted by various other editors insisting that his sources must be refuted (which they have been). Further discussions and warning have been left by me on his talk page for some time. Despite my request that he take the discussions of content refactoring to the relevant talk page, the user continues to treat it as a personal dispute with me in ES and challenges on his own talk page, thereby not providing an opportunity for other editors to determine and comment on what is going on.

I orginally reported the user roughly a month ago [149] but had withdrawn as he stopped, Well once again he prefers to edit war over discussing, I've twice left (admittingly not the most perfect!) edit summaries as well as left him a message which fully explains the issue [150] but instead of discussing the issue he prefers to edit war [151], Looking at his talkpage I'm not the only person to have had issues with his behaviour and to some extent it seems he has some WP:OWNERSHIP with the article.

The issue is I converted the entire programme list to 3 columns as well as delinked the redlinked programmes which he's reverted 3 times without any explanation, Thanks, –Davey2010 ^{Merry Xmas / Happy New Year} 07:25, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

The_Drovers_Wife is re-verting my edits using a BOT called TM BT80 (talk) 13:27, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

This user is essentially vandalising: he's spamming completely contextless tags across tons of articles without edit summaries or explanations, he's been pulled up by at least five editors on his own talk page, and his behaviour so far has been to ignore everyone and keep on going. The tags need to be removed unless he adds some kind of explanation as to why he thinks they have the issues they have (because it isn't obvious in any way), and if he keeps going he really needs to be blocked for vandalism. The Drover's Wife (talk) 21:04, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

• Note @BT80: At this point, I'm seeing your edits as clearly becoming disruptive in nature and in several instances blankly edit warring, both of which are problematic, and, if you continue, it will result in your being blocked. Typically, the cycle of dispute resolution involves a cycle of bold-revert-discuss. At this point, several editors have reverted your initial changes and have now asked you to discuss instead of en masse tagging articles. You now need to discuss instead of continuing in order to gain consensus for your actions. Otherwise, the assumption is going to be that you have no intent to discuss or adhering to our other guidelines and policies. --slakr^\ talk / 23:39, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:
The user was just created and its only activity is the removal of sourced text from two articles.
The arguments from the revert summaries are on the level of "I don't like it." There was no attempt to initiate any discussion.
I warned MiGR25 about 3RR and suggested to start a discussion before reverting.[180] MiGR25's response was to copy and paste my warning word for word on my talk page (not only the template, but the comments I added after).[181]
The use of links to wiki policies in revert summaries indicates that this is not a genuinely new user who is not aware of the rules.
So the user is highly disruptive and it looks like someone created a SPA to remove specific text from the two articles. -YMB29 (talk) 18:10, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

"There was no attempt to initiate any discussion"

There was a dissucsion:Talk:Battle_of_Berlin#Need_to_obtain_actual_consensus_for_controversial_edits yet, you still continuing to widespreed the contested source to the webpages: Soviet_war_crimes, Rape_during_the_occupation_of_Germany; Berlin:_The_Downfall_1945 without any acknowledge to the consensus of an WP:NPOV just because (you) I don't like it

• YMB29, please stop bickering about process. You have been edit-warring to insert your preferred text but it is disputed by every other editor who has commented or acted to revert it. You have no consensus to make the changes you want to make. Binksternet (talk) 18:24, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

• [Y]ou have implied Beevor is the only one by your edit. I have stated valid reasons as to the problems as has PBS; it appears it is you YMB29 who "don't like it." Kierzek (talk) 18:54, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

• I am categorically opposed to statements implying that mass rape did not happen in Berlin. A ten-minute search on Google Scholar will show multiple independent historians reporting that Red Army forces committed mass rapes. The scale of the rapes is up for contention, using scholarly or academically sound sources, but YMB29, you are warned (a) not to imply that these rapes did not take place, and (b) not to edit war. I encourage anyone to report instances of WP:3RR to me. Buckshot06 (talk) 20:15, 19 January 2014 (UTC) (User:Buckshot06)

So MONTHS LATER when other editors are tired of your contentious, tendentious editing approach and take a break, that doesn’t mean you’ve suddenly “won.” Even after another editor who is also an admin. told you to disengage, you’re still at it using the same tired m.o.

It’s really time to add a few additional strings to the instrument you’re playing. And a good way would be to familiarize yourself with the WP policies that have been cited to you seemingly ad infinitum to no effect. "Outlasting" other editors who tire of your behavior does not mean you’ve suddenly arrived at consensus. On the contrary. Another suggestion would be to read Wikipedia:Tendentious editing, an IMO excellent essay that, although it is not black-letter WP policy, has a lot of valuable info.

MiGR25 (talk) 20:37, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Digging up an old discussion (a lot has changed since) from another article, where you did not even participate, does not count as an attempt at discussion on your part.

For a completely new user, you sure seem to know a lot about my history... -YMB29 (talk) 21:06, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

The above is also mostly a copy-paste from a post on a talk page made in May.[182] -YMB29 (talk) 15:18, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

• This report is ironic given YMB29 (talk · contribs) own propensity in engaging in slow burn edit wars to push dubious viewpoints while attempting to exhaust opponents with long intractable discussion on the article talk pages. For example, recently in the article Winter War (with discussion on Talk:Winter_War#Changes_to_intro):

Seems WP:Boomerang would apply here. --Nug (talk) 21:38, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

You are trying to switch attention from the issue here. What is wrong with my reverts above?

Are you wikistalking me? How do you explain your sudden interest in the Winter War article[188]?

You also followed MiGR25's reverts and made a similar revert to his in the Berlin: The Downfall 1945 article (using a similar revert summary)[189] even before MiGR25 got to the page. This leads me to think that you are working together with him/her or MiGR25 is your SPA and you signed into the wrong username to make that revert...

How am I pushing "dubious" viewpoints if the other users come in and revert well sourced text that has been in the articles for a long time? WP:BRD applies there.

The Winter War article had the same problem with a user reverting existing text that he did not like. However, he stopped reverting and decided to discuss. -YMB29 (talk) 22:04, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Yes, extremely dubious, the source you are pushing from a Russian government website claims only 72 German women were raped in total by Soviet forces in the entire campaign to conquer Germany in 1945, that's right, seventy two. Editors strongly objected back in May, just because you were able to sneak it into other articles doesn't mean the consensus against it has changed. --Nug (talk) 06:15, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

Sneak it in? You and others have edited the articles many times since. Users have even reworded that specific text. If something was wrong with the source, it would have been reverted by now and not by this "new" user. So are you still going to claim that you only noticed this text now, when this SPA started reverting it?

The source does not claim that "only 72 German women were raped in total." This is not mentioned in the articles, so you are just repeating MiGR25's dubious statement from a revert summary.

Anyway, you are simply trying to turn this into a content dispute and divert attention from the actions of this "new" user, whom you support. I hope that admins will note this. -YMB29 (talk) 06:37, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

The source you claim is reliable [190] states:

"Я привожу цифры, характеризующие это положение по 7 армиям нашего фронта: общее количество бесчинств со стороны военнослужащих в отношении местного населения, зафиксированных по этим 7 армиям, 124, из них: изнасилований немецких женщин – 72, грабежей -38, убийств – 3, прочих незаконных действий – 11»"

which translates to:

"I quote figures on this position for seven armies of our front: the total number of atrocities committed by the military against the local population, recorded by these 7 armies, 124 of them: rape of German women - 72, 38 robberies, murders - 3, other illegal activities - 11."

Such a bogus claim calls into question the general reliability of the source. --Nug (talk) 08:31, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

The only thing bogus about that is your interpretation. She is talking about documented cases only for the 1st Belorussian Front in a two week span in Berlin.

A historian can't cite documents? Again, where were you before with your criticism? You need to stop trolling. This is off topic. -YMB29 (talk) 14:49, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

You are welcome to belive whatever is on your distorted mind, but keep any false accusation and personal attacks WP:NPA out of the disscusion. I'm neither an alt account, nor an advanced wikiuser and definitely not a SPA. Anyone with a objective and impartially WP:NPV would acknowledge the consensus how biased and one sided Yelena Senyavskaya scathing hypothesis is. Starting with the first source give at Battle_of_Berlin and the disscuion Talk:Battle_of_Berlin#Need_to_obtain_actual_consensus_for_controversial_edits where She not only criticise Beevor, Bellamy and Grossmann studies, but giving dubious remarks. First source: The Red Army "Rape of Germany" was Invented by Goebbels I want to qoute same figure as you: "the total number of atrocities committed by the military against the local population, recorded by these 7 armies, 124 of them: rape of German women - 72, 38 robberies, murders - 3, other illegal activities - 11" and giving following date: from 22 April to 5 May 1945.

During the last days of the downfall and the weeks after, around 2,5 Million Red Army Soldiers and Personell where involved in the occupation of Berlin. How you can you receive an objective and unbiased analysis by examining solely 7 armies? For example, the 2nd Belorussian front, had 8 Armies under command filded around 319'000 mens, and a army per se, is given as a troop strenght of 50'000. Also, the same source indicates, that the approx. number of 2 million of all the raped womans during the whole conquer of Germany are just lies and invented by the Reichspropagandaminister Joseph Goebbels. The other source of Yelena Senyavskaya is not any better in the case, even when it consider a more analytical investigation: The Red Army in Europe in 1945 in the Context of Information War

You also contravened against the WP:3RR here: Berlin: The Downfall 1945: Revision history. Looks like a WP:BOOMERANG MiGR25 (talk) 17:08, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

If you don't agree with a source, use the talk page. There is no excuse for just reverting text you don't agree with.

As for your claim that you are not someone's alternate account, your actions speak for themselves. -YMB29 (talk) 17:28, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

Comment to YMB29:

"If you don't agree with a source, use the talk page. There is no excuse for just reverting text you don't agree with." Listen, there was already a discussion ongoing on the talk page of Battle of Berlin with the acknowledged consensus by multiple User, except you, that the cited source of Yelena Senyavskaya, is heavy biased. Yet, months after a fanatical tug of war, you decided to hoodwink the disscusion and to widespred the same contested source to the following webpages: 1 ; 2 ; 3 ; 4 This can be verified by reviewing your contributions. That's surely not in the sense of the Wiki netiquette of co-educational behavior.

Its tremendous to demand a new Talk-Page for each wikipage I numerated above, just because you did not like how the disscusion turned out for you. Yes, I did removed the content of the following pages: 1 ; 2 but I did not initiate the revert warring. It was you, because you dont like the removal of the contested scoure, even it was considered as heavy biased. MiGR25 (talk) 20:02, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

You started reverting just after registering and you accuse me of edit warring...

And again, for a new user you are too well aware of my editing history. -YMB29 (talk) 20:14, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

Once again, this is not about content dispute, but edit warring and disruptive behavior by a user who just recently registered. MiGR25 and Nug are trying to switch the topic to confuse others. -YMB29 (talk) 17:34, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

The discussion was already held at Talk:Battle_of_Berlin#Need_to_obtain_actual_consensus_for_controversial_edits and Paavo273 (talk · contribs) and PBS (talk · contribs) opposed your dubious source at the time, but you still persisted in spraying your text across multiple articles. Nothing has changed, MiGR25 and I also oppose it today, that's four editors opposing your controversial text, but you are continuing your slow burn edit war even while this case is open here [191], [192]. --Nug (talk) 19:45, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

How are discussions back from May relevant? A lot has changed since. The source was used in multiple articles since and has been there for months with other users modifying the text cited to it. If you want to change something the burden is now on you, see WP:BRD.

Again, there are a lot of questions about your involvement here. Why did you all of a sudden wake up to complain about the source now? Why did you follow me to the Winter War article? Why did you make that revert following MiGR25's lead [193]? Is MiGR25 your SPA? -YMB29 (talk) 20:04, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

Rather than abusing this board to get the upper hand in a content dispute and WP:PA claims that people are either stalking you or are some kind of SPA, perhaps you could accept that your controversial edits that give WP:UNDUE weight to a minority opinion are opposed by many editors and cease and desist in attempting to sneak it under the radar into every article tangentially associated with the topic of the rape of German women. That would help. --Nug (talk) 20:36, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

It would help if you don't try to remove valid text you simply don't like because of your specific POV. Colluding with a random "new" user (who you know is not behaving in a correct wiki way) to achieve this is especially low on your part.

The text and the source is in the articles. The view is significant, not a fringe one that can be excluded. You don't like it and want to remove it? Use the talk pages and go through dispute resolution. -YMB29 (talk) 20:47, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

"And again, for a new user you are too well aware of my editing history." You can't be serious, any User who is willing to spend time and revewing your and the contributions made at those site: 1 ; 2 ; 3 ; 4 can see, that you hoodwink the previous disscusion to widespread the contested hypothesis on these sites. My removal of the contested content is legitimate, you still dont accept the outcome of the disscusion which why you have reverted my removals - which started the edit warring. MiGR25 (talk) 20:48, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

You are still referring to an outdated discussion from May? We are not even talking about the Battle of Berlin article here. The dispute there was mostly about the wording, not that the source does not belong in the article.

Ok, so I guess you spent a long time reviewing my contributions for fun and then decided to register to revert some of them... -YMB29 (talk) 20:55, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

What ever consensus you imagined you had back in May clearly didn't exist then. Please accept that your edit which give way to much weight to a minority viewpoint has no consensus. --Nug (talk) 06:37, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

Please understand that you can't backtrack and claim that the edits I made half a year ago don't have consensus. The source and the text associated with it is present in all the mentioned articles, and no one was against it until MiGR25 started his reverting. I think you need to read WP:CONACHIEVE carefully to understand how consensus is achieved. -YMB29 (talk) 06:52, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

I'm going to close this since nobody wants this shit on Christmas eve. Walter, you were wrong, and I will revert, since the IP gave a perfectly valid explanation and your edit summary, "revert unexplained removal of content", was thus completely incorrect. So, on the one hand, I will revert you, and on the other I will not block you so you can take the matter up on the talk page, if you feel thusly inclined. Merry Christmas to all.

Comments: This user operates a single purpose account dedicated to building credibility for the "Islamic State" and its structure and leadership. Wikipedia editors have widely rejected calling the group a state, or using "Islamic State", "Caliph" and "Caliphate" without qualification, but this editor refuses to follow this consensus. The consensus is reflected in the naming of all major ISIL articles and many talk discussions. It is reflected in the name of the Active Community Sanctions as well.

Comments:

User is exhibiting issues with WP:AGF and WP:OWN, taking the reversions personally, and not listening to any explanations for the reversions. Multiple editors have tried explain on the discussion page why they did the edits they did. His behaviour so far has been to ignore everyone and keep on going. He has also narrowly avoided the 3 revert rule multiple times (which is considered gaming the system per WP:EDITWARRING). He's also been editing out other sourced material.

EDIT: While consulting the User's history I discovered he also permanently hogs and reverts on the same articles. In multiple instances he inexplicably removes sourced material.—Mentoroso (talk) 01:52, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

Please don't list edits that are consecutive.--Bbb23 (talk) 05:58, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

User reverted my edit and told me to read the sources. Reading user's sources, I found those sources tell quite the opposite of what user writes in article. When I told them so the user accused me of harassment.

Unlike user I linked sources that do not contradict my edits but support them. Then an IP reverted my edits, called them "unsourced" and "vandalism".

On the talk page the user contradicts themselves and when being told so they accuse others of misinforming.

User puts words in my mouth I haven't said - I said quite the opposite.

What the user does not say is that consensus had been achieved among 3 editors that we would make Kyrgyzstan (country in question) an "acceding member". Support for this by everyone but Knisfo had been achieved. He instead decided to vandalize and revert every possible edit to render the article incapable of any improvement—Mentoroso (talk) 13:12, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

• Result: Article protected three days. More than one person seems to be edit warring. Why not get an agreement on the talk page? EdJohnston (talk) 16:27, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

An agreement was achieved on the talk page. That the country in question would be considered an acceding state. However Knisfo keeps reverting edits. Also a very highly reliable source, the Financial Times, recently stated that the country IS a member now although its treaty comes fully into force in May. [212]. I still think Knisfo's history of edit warring needs to be considered as he has not been held accountable for any of it.—Mentoroso (talk) 17:07, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

User is displaying issues with WP:AGF and pedantry, making draconian reversions, and not listening to any reasoning or explanations for the reversions. I have tried patiently to explain things, but he clearly has no interest in cooperation or collaboration and, keeps deleting statements that are obvious reasoning, while he refers to WP:OR, without understanding that WP allows deductive reasoning within an article such as stating the obvious and, that reliable sources were provided directly supporting the material being presented according to WP:OR, so there is no original research, and what the sources implied was explained using basic logic and common sense and, not by combining material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion according to WP:ORIGINALSYN, so there is no synthesis of published material as he accuses me of. The point is that there is no need to verify statements that are patently obvious, as explained here. Thank you 98.217.155.45 (talk) 06:31, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

This user operates a single purpose account focusing on historical subject matter to contrive an All-Russian nation rendering of Eastern Slavic history. The user has broken the 3 Revert Rule immediately after his previous block (regarding the same article) expired.

Editor refuses to accept the consensus at the talk page. Multiple users, including myself, have patiently reasoned with him on the talk page for days. Discussion there falls on deaf ears, as he ignores the sources agreed upon by the consensus, reverting them to his own. The sources have been continuously refuted, which he as cherry picked to follow his WP:POV. Several of his sources actually confirm the majority consensus. Ignores WP:MOS for the WP:Lede. The user has been warned routinely on the article talk page, edit summarizes, as well as his user talk page.--BoguSlav 22:31, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: I opened discussion regarding one edit war and Faissaloo opened one about another edit war.

Comments:
On his talk page, Faissaloo acknowledge the edit war and agreed to stop in favor of discussion. He also mentioned at the article talk page the edit that Dizzyzane made. It seems like restrain was attempted, but he was not able to disengage and insisted on reverting the 4th time; marking that edit as minor and yelling in all caps about it didn't help either. only (talk) 12:10, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

I don't think he read the talk page, it's been like that for more than 12 hours now and he hasn't replied, also I wasn't edit warring with Dizzyzane, I only reverted 1 of his changes. I've only been involved in an edit war with 1 user (I believe it was regarding the FBI stuff), and I stopped when I was warned. Faissaloo (talk) 12:44, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

THat was your 3rd revert related to the infobox, though. You reverted ThePowerofX twice and Dizzyzane once regarding the infobox (twice to restore when ThePowerofX removed it, once to change the "type" in it). Then, yes, a second edit war related to the FBI section with myself. only (talk) 12:57, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

I spoke to ThePowerofX in the talk page and we came to the conclusion that Lizard Squad are a hacker group, he just didn't see the section regarding the Machinima.com hack, so the revert was agreed upon: "I was unaware of the earlier attack on Machinima Inc. That said, I have removed the Lizard avatar from the infobox until a reliable source identifies this as their official logo. — TPX 19:56, 26 December 2014 (UTC)", also, I did not revert the logo, someone else did Faissaloo (talk) 13:03, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Faissaloo, if you came to an agreement, the other user ought to have self-reverted, instead of you reverting them. I'm not sure you understand what edit warring is. It's defined as repeatedly reverting to your own preferred version (whole or in part) of an article, not as warring with somebody in particular. It doesn't make any difference which other editor you were reverting. You might be blocked right now, if it wasn't for the fact that you're new (I'm discounting your first few edits a while back) and you misunderstood the policy. As it is, I won't block you, and I don't recommend anybody else to do it either. But I'm warning you : don't perform any reverts on Lizard Squad again, at least for the next few days (in fact, you might be safer not editing it at all in 2014, but that's just advice), and do have a good read of the edit warring policy. Bishonen | talk 13:09, 27 December 2014 (UTC).

Very well then, I won't edit Lizard Squad until 2015, I don't think the article will need me for a while anyways since I've got most of the stuff I know about already in there, thanks! Faissaloo (talk) 13:20, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:

This is a clear case when one editor adds controversial content, is opposed by editors, and then with a help of a friend edit-wars intensively in order to win the edit. The edit summary directing opposing editors like myself to the talk-page is clearly provocative as per BRD he is the one that added content and against any consensus is edit-warring to keep it in the article. I know he didn't made 4 reverts in less than 24 hours but it is not a new editor, and he is well aware of the rules, and he just abuses the revert button. I already saw that in that same article they bullied one senior editor, and I decided to intervene and they just keep on pushing the revert button, so I am asking here please here to block the user in order to show him that such behavior is not tolerated here. FkpCascais (talk) 05:11, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Please note that the user needs to make "more than three reverts within a 24 hour period", meaning 4 or more edits....did the user only make three edits? Adlhgeo1990 (talk) 05:23, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

@Adlhgeo1990 - That's not necessarily true. 3RR is a bright-line rule. It's like a barrier that's a few meters down a forbidden path. You don't have to break through the barrier to be on the path, but it's clear that if you have, you're indisputably where you should not be. The correct procedure is bold, revert, discuss. You boldly make an edit, and when someone reverts your edit you don't revert it back — you go to the talk page. Jsharpminor (talk) 06:24, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

I've dropped an "official" DS warning ({{alert}}) on a few talk pages just in case they didn't get the memo the first time around (also because it adds an edit-filter tag so that other admins know down the line without having to dig into page history :P). --slakr^\ talk / 09:29, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

User:FkpCascais Re your remark: "This is a clear case when one editor adds controversial content, is opposed by editors, and then with a help of a friend edit-wars intensively in order to win the edit", firstly 'editors' is plural, until yesterday when YOU made an edit, only ONE editor has opposed the content, others have supported it. If the wording is inappropriate or 'synth', then let us discuss it on talk, which I will do when I have time over the next few days. You have failed to inform or even mention the other editor (whom I was reverting), failed to inform Bobrayner and failed to attempt to resolve this on talk, but brought the matter here immediately after your own edit was reverted. Pincrete (talk) 13:29, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Bbb23, I have already said (on talk), that if present wording is 'synth', I am happy to change it. However, what exactly is being objected to ? Are you saying that mention of the magazine/website's nationality is ITSELF inappropriate? That seems strange, especially as the film is intimately concerned with FYR and policies of US/UK/EEC. BTW 'reviews' are positive first, negative later, though negative are more numerous and more 'authoritive'. Pincrete (talk) 14:39, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments:
Im not sure why, but this user seems to be making it his/her business to revert all my edits. And for tiny little reasons too. I feel that my edits are constructive edits, yet this person seems to think that destroying other peoples work is the best way for him to deal with things.

Adlhgeo1990 (talk) 02:32, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Adlhgeo1990, lacks understanding of WP:BLP policy about adding contentious material. What this User has been adding here[236][237][238][239] (the first instance is I believe when not logged in) is their interpretation of raw source material. It is not stated explicitly in the cited reference. If my interpretation is wrong, I am more than willing to apologize, but given that it involves a BLP article, I was erring on the side of caution and on behalf of the site and the subject. I am claiming a 3RR BLP exception. --Scalhotrod (Talk) ☮ღ☺ 02:38, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

• May I just point out that, at first blush, this seems like the pot calling the kettle black? Your user history shows that your very first edit was to revert Scalhotrod. In fact, of your 9 edits, 44% of them have been to revert Scalhotrod. Can you say that 44% of Scalhotrod's edits have been to revert you? I think not. Jsharpminor (talk) 02:40, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

I suppose it would appear that way, but I made this account earlier today to try and defend my work from this user, I usually browse and edit from various IP addresses, and have been editing Wikipedia for several years anonymously. 02:51, 27 December 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adlhgeo1990 (talk • contribs)

The relevant policies here, and I would strongly suggest both parties review them, can be found here: WP:PS, WP:BLPPRIMARY Jsharpminor (talk) 02:54, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

The actual relevant question here is this: is Adlhgeo drawing his own conclusions? It's a fact that these emails exist, and have been credited to Evan Spiegel. The only remaining question is if Adlhgeo is doing OR by stating succinctly what is contained in them. I tend to think that, upon reviewing the content and comparing it with PS and BLPPRIMARY, it's probably a tough call. Even so, Adlhgeo, there is no cause to continually restore this material time and again. Take it to the talk page, and no, edit summaries don't count as talk pages. Jsharpminor (talk) 03:00, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Jsharpminor, I appreciate your comments and analysis. What I was going by is the usage of "contentious" used in WP:BLP. Its bad enough that there is a "Controversy" section in the subject's article, but I've seen far lesser claims not only deleted, but blocks handed out for their repeated addition when the source does not explicitly or directly support a claim. This is far from an instance of Wikipedia:You don't need to cite that the sky is blue. --Scalhotrod (Talk) ☮ღ☺ 03:17, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Scalhotrod: Indeed. Jsharpminor (talk) 03:21, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

• Adlhgeo1990, you are Warned that if you violate WP:BLP in any article in the future, you risk being blocked without notice. Scalhotrod is correct in their assessment that you are interpreting primary sources (the e-mails) and then characterizing them. This is impermissible, particularly in an article about a living person. I might add that it doesn't help that the section is sourced to a blog in the first instance. @Scalhotrod, in the future, it is best to claim the BLP exemption in your edit summaries when you get into this kind of battle.--Bbb23 (talk) 06:12, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Bbb23, thank you for the advice. The characterization was my assessment from the begining including when I started a discussion on talk page[240]. But this was the first time that the need for WP:3RRBLP exemption presented itself. Regards, --Scalhotrod (Talk) ☮ღ☺ 18:06, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your assistance and time, and sorry to have wasted everyone's time here. The BLP exemption was only added by the user after he was busy trying to figure out a way to avoid being blocked. Parts of the article regarding the blog were already there and sourced as such, so I simply expanded by informing people as to the contents of the email without them needing to read the entire article. Best regards to everyone. Adlhgeo1990 (talk) 07:17, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

In an edit summary, I asked Антон патріот to raise the matter in Talk before reverting again, but he just reverted again. A third editor started a Talk section about this, but Антон патріот has not made any comments in it.
If one looks at Антон патріот's global account information, one finds that he is blocked in commons.wikimedia.org, es.wikipedia.org, and www.wikidata.org. – Herzen (talk) 05:05, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

Blocked – 24 hours. The blocks on other Wikipedias do suggest that the user is not open to persuasion, so the future is not bright. EdJohnston (talk) 05:46, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

EdJohnston, as soon as the block was over, this editor resumed his edit warring. He made the same revert two times within few hours after the block was over [241][242]. Vanjagenije (talk) 02:47, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments: This article is under Syrian Civil War 1RR - something the bunny should know about as someone with a very full understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines.

Clearly this is not an "edit war". Those diffs show unrelated edits. I am happy to discuss them. Igor the facetious xmas bunny (talk) 07:04, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

P.S. I was totally unaware (prior to right-now, when I saved this and read above), that "This article is under Syrian Civil War 1RR". I will now look up what that means, and act accordingly. Igor the facetious xmas bunny (talk) 07:06, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

"An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Violations of the this rule normally attract blocks of at least 24 hours." Note this is a 1RR page. You have not discussed any of your edits. And your last post is disingenuous. Legacypac (talk) 07:09, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

Will this discussion include an explanation as to why you tagged an 11-minute-old sourced article (Citing The Guardian and The Daily Telegraph) for speedy deletion? AndyTheGrump (talk) 07:07, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

With 7 sources from 6 major news sites, plus two links as unsourced? Legacypac (talk) 07:14, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

I doubt it, because this is the 'edit warring' noticeboard, so a possibly-probably-incorrect CSD tagging (since removed) is unlikely to be relevent. Feel free to discuss it if you want, though. As long as you are just not trying to find a reason to persecute me.

As I understand Wikipedia, the point of any requests to admins - such as here, or ANI, or whatever - are to prevent disruption. I think, in this case, you are causing disruption through your complaints.

Maybe you can stop now, and let us all go about our content editing business? Best, Igor the facetious xmas bunny (talk) 07:24, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

I will note this user is also edit warring on User talk:Jimbo Wales: [248][249][250][251][252]. I might have missed some. Chillum 08:48, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

Sure sounds like edit-warring when you post a bunch of diffs like that...unless people actually look at them. If they do, they'll see 2 attempts at hatting a side-discussion, 1 revert due to the unblock to reinstate the sensible edit, and a couple of edits entirely unrelated, in a separate thread, attempting to DENY.

Hence, your post above is entirely misleading.

This isn't a case for EW. If you really want to continue to persecute me (which apparently you do, merely because I've edited before and thus surely am a sock), I suggest you try making a case from it.

There is no simple reason to block me. And if you do, it really won't help anything.

I suggest you stop harassing me, and let me get on with editing articles. Igor the facetious xmas bunny (talk) 09:14, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

• No violation I hope some admin will take stock of the other report of the same user below, which seems to have more meat to it, because I don't have the time, but I'm closing this one as no violation. It's about all sorts of stuff, that can perhaps be raised elsewhere — the speedy tag was ridiculous, for example — but by no stretch of the imagination has the user edit warred on Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently. Posting something, such as a speedy tag, which is then reverted by somebody else is not a "revert", for crying out loud, Legacypak. I can't see where the xmas bunny has reverted even once on the Raqqa article, so the 1RR restriction is moot, if it were even a proper complaint for this board, which it isn't.
