This page is for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule.

• See this guide for instructions on creating diffs for this report.
• If you see that a user may be about to violate the three-revert rule, consider warning them by placing {{subst:uw-3rr}} on their user talk page.

You must notify any user you have reported.

You may use {{subst:An3-notice}} ~~~~ to do so.

You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

Additional notes

• When reporting a user here, your own behavior will also be scrutinized. Be sure you understand WP:REVERT and the definitions below first.
• The format and contents of a 3RR/1RR report are important, use the "Click here to create a new report" button below to have a report template with the necessary fields to work from.
• Possible alternatives to filing here are dispute resolution, or a request for page protection.
• Violations of other restrictions, like WP:1RR violations, may also be brought here. Your report should include two reverts that occurred within a 24-hour period, and a link to where the 1RR restriction was imposed.

• Diff of 3RR warning:

New admin here, looking for some guidance. This user has been posting that the subject was insane based on his own suppositions. He reverted before I insisted he bring it to talk, reverted me, and after a warning from myself and another admin he reverted yet again without further discussion. BOZ (talk) 00:50, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

He didn't receive an adequate final warning. I have left him one now. Let's see if he continues to revert. This is both edit warring and BLP nonsense, so he shouldn't get much slack. EdJohnston (talk) 01:08, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks; I don't have my warnings down yet and was looking for the templates when I stumbled across this page. :) Fortunately it is not actually a BLP since the subject is deceased, but that doesn't make it any less wrong to make bald assertions about a person without any verifiable sources to reference. BOZ (talk) 01:11, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Warning removed, but so far no further vandalism (unless you count an IP who did something different). BOZ (talk) 00:07, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Result - No action for now. Consider a block if the 'insane' comment is restored again. EdJohnston (talk) 03:56, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Charles Harrelson (result: warned)

• User: Ltpas2009 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

• User Ltpas2009 is a well-known cyber-bully, who is adept at starting and prolonging flame wars on several internet sites with several users. User Ltpas2009 has also engaged Mr. Pascal in a documented argument on his official site (adampascalmusic.COM Note the similarities in URL to the flame site), and has gone so far as to impersonate Mr. Pascal on Twitter.

KeltieMartinFan reported by 87.69.176.81 (Result: No violation)

• Page: Katie Couric (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
• User: KeltieMartinFan (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

• Previous version reverted to:

• 1st revert:
• 2nd revert:
• 3rd revert:

Please notice that while I've been trying to engage this user in a constructive dialogue, all they have done in return was to either try and dismiss my points as "ridiculous nonsense" or outright spew as many insults at me as they could (see below in "reaction to the {{3RR}} template"), not to mention several reverts with empty edit summaries on other pages...

• Diff of 3RR warning:

I'd like to point out this user's reaction to my {{3RR}} template, which can be found here. I've reported it to the main admin board – figured you guys here could give it a glance or two. Thank you so much in advance. 87.69.176.81 (talk) 14:05, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

(non-admin comment): This specific reversion just says that 87.69.176.81 is the vandal. ESpublic013 (talk) 14:08, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Not really. If you look closely, it was KeltieMartinFan (talk · contribs) who reversed "unit" to "until," because I simply made a typo in my initial addition and fixed it right afterward. 87.69.176.81 (talk) 14:18, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Result - The information that the IP editor is warring to insert is:

In the South Park episode More Crap, her name is used to create a fictional measure unit for weighing fecal matter.

Obviously our article on Couric will be seriously incomplete without this important information. Sorry for the sarcasm, but there are only three reverts here, so WP:3RR is not violated. You've managed to submit the same complaint at two different noticeboards, ANI and AN3. See WP:FORUMSHOP. You've not made any effort at Talk:Katie Couric to get support for including this key fact, which I imagine will not be easy to get. No violation. EdJohnston (talk) 17:29, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

...and obviously, adding this information will utterly ruin the article and Misplaced Pages in whole. Better hide your internets 'cuz it will burn all your hard drives and rape your goldfish... alright, enough with the sarcasm, you catch my drift. Obviously, you have not been particularly helpful. There was no WP:FORUMSHOPPING because I have two separate issues with this user: edit warring with mostly empty edit summaries (which I've reported here) and particularly aggressive personal attacks (which I've reported on WP:ANI). You have obviously chosen to turn a blind eye to some facts here, so I am requesting a review by another admin. 87.69.176.81 (talk) 22:43, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

As another uninvolved administrator - No, sorry, this is junk, and if you keep trying to add it you'll be blocked. Don't do it again. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 22:51, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Blocked for what exactly? Please remember to be wp:civil. 87.69.176.81 (talk) 22:55, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

• While the user in question has not reverted since the warning was issued, its editing behavior stinks like a sock. I will note that what they are re-adding to the article is a image uploaded by a now banned Rex Germanus (talk · contribs). That said, I am not sure that calling a user a Nazi in a edit summary is the best way to go about things either Piotrus (see this RFAR remedy). Tiptoety 05:57, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

I don't think Piotrus or anyone else called the user a Nazi, rather just noted that the map that is being discussed was 1) used as Nazi propaganda and 2) (this one by me) was uploaded by a user who, in my understanding, got blocked for pushing Nazi POV. It may very well have been that Npovshark was not aware of the history of the map and the edit summaries were meant to explain that (of course this is assuming that this user is not independently aware of the history of the map here). Still, he kept going.radek (talk) 06:03, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Per Radek, I was referring to a map, not an editor, who btw shows no signs of remorse, and responded to the 3rr warning with a personal attack/"I am innocent, you are bad" claim. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 15:19, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

I find your attitude towards this map and the way you went about raising an objection to it repuslive. "Oh, I don't like it, I'll just delete it without conversation" As for reverting three times, that is a lie. You deleted pictoral content on the site without a discussion, and that is vandalism. Editing vandalism does not count as 3RR. Then, after finding out what your problem was with the map, which took two vandalism reverts (you made no mention of the problem with a vague statement like "it is nazi propaganda/user was banned") I went and found the original map, which gives a source -- Dr. V. Schmidt and Dr. J. Metelka - and changed the subtitle to reflect that this was not a map of 1925, but 1910. It also appears that the "work" of Rex Germanicus, the banned user, is not his work at all. He only made a copy of the file, which comes from a Dutch user, HP1740-B. So it appears you did not do your homework. Then, I added the map that was uploaded by HP1740, not the banned user. I have contacted the original creator of the map for clarification on the file, such as its source, validity, etc.

Thanks for telling me this discussion was going on, too. Nothing you are doing is right here, so you better believe I will come here with the "I am innocent, you are bad claim".--Npovshark (talk) 15:45, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Piotrus, this is completely unacceptable: . You remove mention of Poland bombing Silesia, which means the statement of "these were the first few bombings of the war" is no longer accurate, and an article about bombings during world war II has false information. Good job.

Then, you add that the purpose of bombing Wielun was not to test bombing but to "simply" test bombing. Don't you dare cry to me about me pushing pov with this kind of garbage.

Then, you added an unsourced and actually untrue statement about Germany "leading the bombing" early on, although the facts suggest otherwise. Britain attacked many many sites in Germany before Germany opened up the air war over Britain. This is a FACT. Scroll down further in the article and you can read the summary of attacks, month by month.

Also, your edits, buried deeeeeeeeeep in the article history, have totally messed up the text, and I refuse to sort through them.

For you to run here and complain about me trying to get down to the bottom of things regarding this map is completely absurd.--Npovshark (talk) 15:52, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

In history article about strategic bombing in WW2 the above user Npovshark removes information about nazi atrocities and presents Germany as being attacked first by Britain: --Gwinndeith (talk) 16:34, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Gwinndeith...I explained my reversion of "your" edits. I say "your" because you have merely taken the recent edit attempts of Piotus (see here for Piotus' edits and here for Gwinndeith's , which I have commented on in the edit summary MORE THAN ONCE and also done here on this Administration discussion (see above). I also asked that you explain your changes on the page's talk and you never responded. I have left you a message on your page and you have not responded. Your edits are all to push a POV and you have had little consideration for facts, how your edits fit into the article (not just because they are unsourced, but also because they include bad English, show little consideration for the flow of the article and change previously sourced statements so that they say something that they actually do not source, such as is the case in your version of the intro).--Npovshark (talk) 16:54, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

No action - Npovshark did go over 3RR but he has stopped reverting this article. His last edit was 22 hours hours ago, and someone else has undone his last change. In such a case it is quite uncommon to issue a 3RR block. Some people have been making a case that he is a POV warrior, but the present discussion is not for that. If you want to continue discussing this, do so either in the current ANI thread about Npovshark or on a talk page. But if Npovshark comes back to revert this article again it's a whole new ball game and he may be blocked. EdJohnston (talk) 17:15, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

• Page: Coptic history
• User: User:Falastine fee Qalby

• 1st revert:
• 2nd revert:

• In addition, the user is harassing me on my talk page: I attempted to initiate a respectful discussion with him/her here and all I got was more harassment on my talk page. --Lanternix (talk) 02:08, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

As you can see, Lanternix (talk · contribs) changed the link to a redirect (to Arab invasion of Egypt), and I am reverting his edit to avoid a redirect (back to Muslim conquest of Egypt). That edit of Lanternix is part of a series of edits that show his hostility towards Arabs. Here he deletes a large amount of text from Arab Christians with the edit summary (Egyptians / Copts are NOT Arabs and have nothing to do with an article called "Arab Christians") Here is another series of edits in which he replaces words like Abu Bakr and Rashidun with Arabs . If it was one or two edits, I would not have mind, but it appears to be the same with the majority of his recent edits. I don't see any other purpose to his editing than to incite. -Falastine fee Qalby (talk) 02:18, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Azazilsgoat (talk · contribs), who registered just a few hours ago, reverted my edit on that page back to Lanternix's really useless change. That was Azazilsgoat's second of only two edits. Could this be Lanternix (talk · contribs) trying to get the version he wants without appearing to be edit warring? Or could this be Lanternix trying to get me to make a 4th revert, thus violating 3rr? I don't see why this 'newly' registered editor would undo my revert as you all can note, Lanternix changed the link to a redirect for POV reasons. It is highly likely that this user is Lanternix, do I have to open an SPI, or can someone do a checkuser now? -Falastine fee Qalby (talk) 20:32, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Also, his first edit was uploading a map whose author is Lanternix. -Falastine fee Qalby (talk) 20:38, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

• Diff of warning: here

This user is edit-warring some pretty serious BLP violations into the article - basically unreferenced controversial information about a living person. The user was warned for edit-warring, but he/she deleted the warning and reverted again. — Scjessey (talk) 06:19, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

The information is sourced on CNN, MSNBC, People Magazine, E!, US Weekly, and the Vancouver Sun, and there are pictures. Those sources are neutral, the assertions verifiable, and the research is not my own. The page in question has been drawing criticism for several months for the horrendous amount of whitewashing that has gone on there.Pink-thunderbolt (talk) 06:28, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

I feel I should also point out that Scjessey has previously been blocked for an edit war, I have not, that he intimated a legal threat by "warning" me that my edit was defamatory, and that all previous attempts to include information deemed in any way critical of the subject of the article has been summarily reverted by a small group of people. The article in question is for some reason being treated differently than any other reality tv family show article, and unless the serial deletion of this information is halted, the quality of the article will continue to suffer. Also, one of the alleged reverts is actually the initial addition to the article.Pink-thunderbolt (talk) 07:03, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

There is edit warring, and to have a proper dispute there needs to be two parties. Both the reporter and reportee are advised to discuss their content dispute on talk pages or seek dispute resolution. Continuation of disruptive editing by either of them will result in blocks. Nja 09:08, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Warning scjessey looks like a bad call - Scjessey and one other editor are reverting poorly sourced material on BLP grounds, and Scjessey has taken the dispute here for resolution. Pink-thunderbolt broke 3RR trying to insert it. The proper content resolution is that the material stays out unless and until there is both consensus for inclusion, and a reasonable determination that it isn't a BLP violation. Wikidemon (talk) 09:58, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

PT only appears to have 3R: the first edit isn't William M. Connolley (talk) 10:52, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

The issue here is that PT inserted controversial information about a living person into an article without any referencing, and then thrice restored it despite being warned after the second revert. Whether it was 3 or 4 reversions isn't really important - it was still edit-warring BLP violations into the article. -- Scjessey (talk) 15:40, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

I referenced it, anyone who looks at the disputed text will see that. There is a consensus for inclusion, many people over a long period of time have proposed that there be a section on criticism of the show, or that at least, information like the information provided by CNN, MSNBC, E!, US Weekly, and People Magazine be included, and over and over again, Scjessey has tried to weasel around it, sometimes by saying that the article is about the show, not the family, even though it is a show about a family, or that things are poorly sourced when they are not. I have been to the page twice, once several months ago, and both times I came looking for information on the reports of serious unhappiness of Jon or controlling behavior by Kate, because I saw something about it on Television, and in a magazine, and both times there was nothing here. So I added the information. When I was at the page several months ago, I mentioned that I would be putting in the information if more news sources began to cover the issue, and they did, so I did.Pink-thunderbolt (talk) 16:00, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

I count 4RR for Pink Thunderbolt - the first edit re-inserted this claim, albeit in different words, that Jon Gosselin was partying in clubs with other women. Pink Thunderbolt was clearly edit warring and, with two editors objecting, there was not a clear consensus for it. Content changes that are not accepted should be discussed on the talk page, not edit warred. So even though the question is now moot -- the report is resolved with a warning rather than block and the editors are no longer reverting each other -- I raised this only to point out that Scjessey was not doing the same thing. He was joining a second editor in making a BLP reversion to the newly added material - if another party tries to add it again, I don't want this report to have a chilling effect on watchful editors who would otherwise correctly remove it again pending a full discussion. Scandalous rumors cited to gossip columns is a classic and frequently misunderstood BLP situation. That the rumors form the WP:PLOT of a reality show is a less common twist best discussed at WP:BLP/N. Wikidemon (talk) 16:26, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

I will also throw in that, while I haven't been around for the bulk of this warring, I went to pink's talkpage and saw pink has replaced all warnings with a rant that starts with this: "Some fruitcake from the Jon and Kate Plus 8 fanclub made a comment here about me putting gossip on the page for the show." They have also said several things like we're "whitewashing" the page of negative material. At the very least, the user is not assuming good faith and is acting in a less than civil manner. It is disruptive to the project. Before Pink came back to the page, we were having a decent discussion about the issue on the talk page (which included finding decent sources and we started to discuss its merits for inclusion). Now it's turned back into a rant-fest by Pink. --13 16:45, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Persistend adding of non-information after having been warned several times on editor's talk page. — Edokter • Talk • 12:16, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

• 24h each The first of the reverts above is stale, and the 3rd and 7th appear not to be reverts but tweaks to the previous edit. That still leaves five reverts in 24 hours for the reportee, of course. However, I also count five reverts by the reporter here (Version reverted to - Rev1 (15:34 2 May).. Rev 2 (16:31 2 May).. Rev 3 (13:02 3 May).. Rev 4 (13:06 3 May).. Rev 5 (13:09 3 May). That doesn't leave a lot of choice here. Black Kite 16:14, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Now that this article is protected, I believe it can improve, especially the "Critical reviews" section which does not meet WP quality guidelines. Sardath refuses to abide by those guidelines and doesn't accept that others rewrite this section in order to lessen the number of quotes and their length. As soon as someone edits the section, this (seemingly) single purpose account pops up and reverts their edit. He doesn't even agree with the {{Quotefarm}} banner that merely reflects an undeniable fact. Despite my warning on his talk page, he has just made his fourth revert in less than 24h. — Xavier, 14:05, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

• Diff of 3RR warning:

This editor wants to split of large parts of the history of Alitalia from the main article; as this is the case on the Italian Misplaced Pages. This has been discussed before and there was no consensus to do so. The user however places the Italian situation/ point of view, without any discussion beyond the international point of view.
In spite of my urging not to remove this information the user has done so anyway, and called my reverts "vandalism" from the start (although I actively defended the user from accusations that his removal was vandalism e.g. here). The editor instead repeatedly calls my (talk page supported edits) vandalism and reverts as such. It seems clear to me this editor is not even trying to listen to others.

Note that the above edits only deal with one specific paragraph that Theo789 has been adding while 3 other users have deleted it. This is the specific violation of 3RR, but there are many other issues on which he(?) has been edit warring. For example, deleting sourced material , adding specious NPOV tags , adding poorly sourced info - he sourced a Facebook discussion here: . Generally POV pushing, while claiming that the well sourced consensus version is POV. Also note that anonymous user user:63.215.27.57 was warned for making very similar edits, but seems to have gone away since Theo789 showed up - it's likely the same person. See the anon edits here: , , , etc.

Also note that Theo789 has been engaging in the same type of edit warring at Caylee Anthony homicide - changing sourced material , , , adding poorly sourced or irrelevant material to push a POV .

• Diff of 3RR warning: , .

• No action - While the user in question did violate WP:3RR, they have since ceased edit warring after they were warned and taken to discussing the issue on the talk page. Should they continue to edit war, a block will be necessary. Tiptoety 03:54, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
