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.

Please see previous reports, no matter how I and others have tried user keeps reverting legitimate citations and factual evidence, seems to think they 'own' page., user insists an international co production is 'American', has reverted a total of 27 times:

• Really need some guidance here please. Twobells (talk) 16:05, 13 January 2015 (UTC) -->

I was reverting the incorrect changes you made of "is an American TV series" to "was an..."; it's always "is" per WP:TVLEAD, which then you reverted several times, which was wrong. I collaborated with you for several edits, cleaning up your additions (fixing grammar and citations), I don't understand what your problem is. Your continued assertion that the UK is also country of origin is incorrect; I provided you with 100% proof (the series itself from a UK version of the episode) that states in the end credits, "Country of first publication: United States of America" and below "©2004 USA Cable Productions LLC" and per the Berne Convention (which the series is copyrighted under) confirms "country of origin" as the country of first publication. Also, there is no " and others, it's just you. Another editor, Drmargi is also reverting your changes. You've provided a citation that states "co-production", which I have never been against, that does not equal "country or origin". My reference 100% confirms "country or origin" as the proof is the the series' end credits along with copyright laws. Drovethrughosts (talk) 16:15, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

No, you weren't admin please check page history, you've proceeded to revert four times in one hour, not only that you altered the page chronology for some reason. User Drovethrughosts proceeded to produce '100 proof evidence' (NOR anyone?) that the show according to a pirated video tape (which no-one has seen) was 'American' while I edited in actual citations from tv industry experts referring to the UK's collaboration with Universal on Battlestar Galactica (2004) from Google Books. If administration care to check talk history they will find other editors who both edited the article (reverted immediately) and discussed adding the fact that the UK co-funded the show so no, it isn't just me, although I have been the one most recently having to put up with this crazy page 'ownership'. Twobells (talk) 17:27, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

The only editor edit warring here is Twobells. He is determined to force in an edit, based on one iffy and one unreliable source that he feels somehow makes the American TV series Battlestar Galactica a US/UK (with UK primacy) television production, despite the only foundation for his claim is limited contributed funding of the mini-series and first season by the UK network Sky1 (along with the Canadian network Space, which doesn't seem to interest him); the principle source of funding was NBC Universal, which produced and funded the mini-series and five season series for the SciFi/Syfy Network. His whole argument hangs on the mistaken notion that the country of the source of funding, not the country of the production company is somehow the country of origin, in opposition to the standard established by consensus at Project:Television. Worse, he's filed one prior case here against myself and Drovethrughosts (the latter case was malformed and mistakenly removed by the closing admin, but wasn't worth pursuing), and is back at it today, but persists in edit warring and restarting the edit war, oblivious to the face he is the instigator of these edit wars. He is long past editing to improve the article. This has become some sort of cause (possibly based on anti-American sentiment, if a conversation with another editor and some past editing patterns are to be believed) he has taken up, not only on this article, but on a couple others as well, and he's determined to continue to edit war, engage in pointy editing (see some recent edits) and harassment via these noticeboards to have his way. Meanwhile, he has no foundation for his changes, despite his loud claims of so-called "legitimate" sources, both of which have been challenged as unreliable. His engagement on the show's talk page is not designed to reach consensus, but rather to dominate the discourse and tell other editors what is and is not correct, yet demonstrates a significant lack of understanding of (or blindness to) a range of policies he claims are being "violated." It seems abundantly apparent to me that he is not editing in good faith, but rather to win at any costs. --Drmargi (talk) 16:32, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• Admin, please see both history and the previous 3RR report regarding editor Drmargi to see who is doing the reverting and edit warring, the sources are completely legitimate cited from Google Books. I have no interest in UK being 'primary' whatsoever, I have no idea where that came from. Editor Drmargi is confused as to how production credits work and was himself previously reported for reverting 7 edits in 24 hours (see 3RR archive 367). To be honest both users Dmargi and DroveThrughosts seem to think they 'own' the article and jointly rush to attack anyone who might edit the article which is completely unacceptable and what is worse user Drmargi states that in editing the article that flies in the face of their wishes it is somehow pointy editing which is frankly ludicrous in that they have a nice comfy albeit incorrect article and nothing is going to change that. He goes on to suggest that there seems to be some sort of 'anti-americanism' going on which is frankly ludicrous and reflects a increasing sense of desperation considering I am Anglo-American. I have tried to explain how co-production articles work citing examples such as Gravity and Guardians of the Galaxy but it seems to have fallen on deaf ears. In closing, the article reached consensus (when you calculate the numbers) on adding the UK contribution back In December; however neither editor seems to accept that consensus as it flies in the face of their beliefs pertaining to this tv show. Twobells (talk) 16:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• "I have no interest in UK being 'primary' whatsoever, I have no idea where that came from" — then why did you put it as "UK-USA" and "Sky1 (UK)-Universal TV (US)" then, when clearly the US is the primary producer of the series. Drovethrughosts (talk) 17:24, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
• "To be honest both users Dmargi and DroveThrughosts seem to think they 'own' the article and jointly rush to attack anyone who might edit the article which is completely unacceptable." — how are our edits any different than yours? You were the one to start the edit war twice now. And no, it's not "anyone", it's just you making these edits. Drovethrughosts (talk) 17:24, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
• "The article reached consensus (when you calculate the numbers)" — what are you talking about? You refer to things that have never happened, the article did not read consensus and what numbers did you calculate? I'm sorry, but I think copyright laws which define country of origin is a better source than someone on Google Books. Drovethrughosts (talk) 17:24, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
• "I have tried to explain how co-production articles work citing examples such as Gravity and Guardians of the Galaxy but it seems to have fallen on deaf ears — as far as I see, it states "Guardians of the Galaxy is a 2014 American superhero film..." Also, see WP:OTHER. Drovethrughosts (talk) 18:06, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

This article was the subject of a previous 3RR complaint on 30 December. The result was 5 days of full protection. It appears that User:Twobells has a theory about the nationality of this TV show: "it is the country that funds a production that defines ownership", but he seems to be the only one who believes this. Unless Twobells will make a promise to accept consensus from now on, a block may be necessary. Twobells has five previous blocks. Both Drmargi and Twobells would strengthen their case if they would give links to the policies they mention about TV shows and to the prior 3RRs. EdJohnston (talk) 17:09, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

I don't know, Ed. I can throw in a few links when I have time, but any admin doing due diligence will have to look at the article edit history and talk page, which paints a vivid picture of what's gone on. I think the real issues underlying the edit war are Twobells's disruptive editing, constant restarting of this edit war, abuse of this noticeboard, and lack of willingness to work toward consensus. He stirs the pot, goes away for a while, apparently until he thinks things have calmed down, and then is back again, starting all over. Meanwhile, a quick glance at his edit history shows he's not editing anywhere else. Make of it what you will. I'm heartily weary of the whole situation. Drmargi (talk) 20:39, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Result: Twobells is blocked 48 hours. User:Drovethrughosts is warned for edit warring. This dispute happened before, on 30 December. That time the 3RR was closed with protection. It seems that Twobells just isn't going to stop, no matter what anyone says. Twobells doesn't appear to have any support from other editors but he keeps reverting anyway.

Comments:

I'm adding only one IP for the title, but as you can see, it's probably an user with multiple IPs. Due to his edits, he might have a Portuguese profile, but didn't create an English one. Also based on those edits, I believe he's Brazilian and that his edits are only based on the fact that he is a supporter of Atlético Mineiro. Tried to reason with the person via article's edit summary and reached each IP with a talk page for discussion as well. I used to deal with it only via edit summary, but now I decided to follow the standard path and report cases instead of just reverting them in a loop at the articles. Thanks Gsfelipe94 (talk) 16:42, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Comments:

An IP and this user appear to have been in an edit war for a while before I came across it today (note: I am not the IP, and welcome any checkuser to verify if there is any question on this whatsoever).

I have attempted to discuss the issue on the user's talk page at User talk:Scsu76#Charleston Armed Forces, but they have refused to respond - simply reverting. Their argument seems to be that because the base is called "Joint Base Charleston" (and not "Joint Base North Charleston", or "Joint Base Charleston Metro Area"), and because Charleston owes its development to the military, that the military section needs to be expanded to cover all military units in the metro area. This despite the fact that most of those units are actually not within the borders of Charleston itself, but instead are located in the greater Charleston, South Carolina metropolitan area, mostly in the cities of North Charleston, South Carolina, Goose Creek, South Carolina, and Hanahan, South Carolina. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 22:20, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Sardanaphalus has a habit of reinstating his edits, even if they are reverted for good reason; In this case, half the section of the linked template became unreadable, so I reverted. But he takes it personally, so I warned him to not to do so, or I would report him to 3RR, even after one revert. Minutes later, he does it anyway. By doing so, he is damaging legibility of templates (not only this one). He has been instructed be several editors (and admins) to show restraint and test his edits before implementing them, but it falls on deaf ears. -- ] {{talk}} 23:44, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

And again, yet the other editor was not warned for violations. The only reason I'm always on here is because every time there is an edit war like this, I am always the ONLY one who get reported, even though others edit war as well. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 02:45, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

The user was reverting a perfectly legit and cited update because he did find the source (Republic Records' official website) to appear "official" enough, and stated that Big Machine is her label. I informed him that Republic handled her releases to pop radio (and is listed on Republic Records as one of their artists) but he continued reverting. I then took the matter to his talk page to discuss but he was non-compliant. Afireinside27 (talk) 03:28, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Comments: The user has made 4 reverts in less than 24-hours. I recall reverting the user only 2 times, meaning the other 2 times the user has edit-warred with some other user. The user doesn't seem to have engaged in any discussion during the first 3 reverts. Even though during that time, I had posted messages on the talk page. (Here's the section: Talk:Charlie_Hebdo_shooting#Condemnation_higher_than_support). I posted a message to the user's talk page, pointing out to them that they had been reverting without discussing. After that Andiar.rohnds did post on the talk page, but immediately after that reverted me again (making it the 4th revert in <24hours). I also found their comment on the talk page somewhat unhelpful, esp since they started off with "Misplaced Pages is not your personal agenda device..." Since then, another user has posted on the talk page, and seems to also disagree with Andiar.rohnds. Coupled with the fact that others have reverted Andiar.rohnds' reverts, it seems clear to me that Andiar.rohnds' position is in the minority here.

After the 4th revert, I warned the user and asked them to self-revert. The user responded back by saying I was "confused" and I should go read Misplaced Pages:Policies and guidelines

I'll gladly take this report back if Andiar.rohnds self-reverts and agrees to resolve this matter through discussion.VR _talk 06:52, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Discussions were had, and previously archived. Discussion still continues on main talk page. User simply will not listen and is reporting falsehoods. --Andiar.rohnds (talk) 15:05, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

• Since I reported the user, they are continuing to make the exact same reverts. Andiar.rohnds didn't revert me, but rather someone else. It seems Andiar.rohnds is not willing to stop reverting.VR _talk 17:29, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

• Andiar.rohnds' usual revert is to simply swap the order of Islamic sources supporting the attack versus those condemning the attack, to put those supporting the attack first. Andiar.rohnds often cites Talk:Charlie Hebdo shooting/Archive 2#Muslim response as his reason for reverting, but I am unclear on whether that talk thread reached any conclusion. Maybe the submitter of this 3RR, User:Vice regent, wants to comment? I confess that Andiar.rohnds comment at the beginning of the thread suggests that his motivation is personal POV and does not show a desire to reflect what reliable sources have written: "This information is not relevant to the current event and serves an extraneous social agenda, and should be removed immediately. --Andiar.rohnds (talk)" It is unclear how Misplaced Pages policy justifies Andiar.rohnds' reasoning. EdJohnston (talk) 18:24, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

At no point in the section (Talk:Charlie Hebdo shooting/Archive 2#Muslim response) does Andiar.rohnds give an explanation for changing the order of the Muslim sources, except for one comment on 13:52, 10 January 2015. Whereas the edit-warring happened Jan 13-14. By the time the edit-warring happened, that one comment had been archived anyway. On the other hand, 5 minutes after the edit-warring above started, I posted a comment. Andiar.rhonds didn't discuss at that section while continuing to edit-war, until much later.

You're absolutely right that it is unclear how their reasoning is in line with wikipedia policies. I actually have a hard time understanding Andiar.rhonds' arguments at all, which are often aimed at attacking a particular user (like myself or someone else) than at justifying their edits.VR _talk 01:35, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Ryulong on the ANI board (Result: declined)

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Ryulong has far surpassed 3RR on the AN/I board. The underlying argument he seems to put forth is that the user in question is (probably) banned. What he doesn't seem to appreciate is that he is the subject of the complaint and that at least two other users consider the merits of the complaint to worth at least a cursory notice.

WP:3RRNO says that reverts to edits by banned editors or their sockpuppets and meatpuppets are exempt from 3RR. Whether or not I am the subject of the thread that this banned editor started is immaterial.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 08:57, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I find your general demeanor to be reprehensible. That this user may (or may not) be banned but they have become peripheral to your conduct at this point. GraniteSand (talk) 09:01, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Unless the edits made by this user are beneficial to the project (which the baseless complaints I was violating WP:BITE or whatever else he was going to pull up) do not qualify.

I have ceased removing the section on ANI as it wasn't getting anywhere. Clearly, these two editors strongly dislike each other, and while Ryulong may or may not be removing these comments due to "I don't like them there" wikipedia is not a battleground. That being said, I do think that, while Ryulong may not be the right person for removing these comments since they're about him, his comments about WP:BANREVERT are valid, which is part of the reason why I ceased reverting him. Reviewing admins may also want to take a look at the note left on my talk page. — kikichugirl  09:24, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Declined per WP:BANBLOCKDIFF. Ideally Ryulong would not be the one removing these posts by an indef-blocked editor, given they were about Ryulong in the first place. But removal of what is basically a trolling by an indef-blocked editor is not the basis for a 3RR sanction. -- Euryalus (talk) 09:27, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

"Trolling" suggests that there is not inherently valid commentary to be had. Were to Ryulong to have treated any other editor this way he'd be in line for consequence. GraniteSand (talk) 09:36, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Editors in good standing have every right to lodge ANI complaints and have them considered. That right is not routinely extended to the sock puppets of indef-blocked editors. I would add in passing that I also reviewed the actual complaint, and it lacked merit on the evidence provided. Had the material not been removed, I would have declined and closed the thread. -- Euryalus (talk) 09:49, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I don't mean to interject, but where does it say the user was banned? Aren't bans different from being blocked? TL565 (talk) 09:41, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

The master account is indef blocked. There are a fair few similarities between indef blocks and bans, but practical differences are outlined at WP:BLOCKBANDIFF. -- Euryalus (talk) 09:53, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I see, but does the 3RR apply because multiple non-blocked users were also reverted? TL565 (talk) 09:59, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Ya can't fault a guy for knowing the loopholes and how to exploit them. You can, however, fault the loopholes. ―Mandruss ☎ 09:45, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

It's genuinely disgusting and people are beginning to take notice. GraniteSand (talk) 09:58, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

This is not a loophole. Banned editors and indefinitely blocked editors are not allowed to edit Misplaced Pages and other users are not allowed to proxy for them. GraniteSand seems to want the report there because he feels I am somehow toxic to the project and must be punished, even when those complaints are brought up by someone who blatantly admits they are evading a ban by saying they are totally not, obviously being a banned editor, and is definitely not someone in good standing. You are also heavily mistaken how these threads are supposed to operate because once it is declined that is the end of it. If you actually believe there are violations of policy that I have performed then you are perfectly free as an editor in good standing to report me for them but this situation here is not the case.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 10:09, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

You were clearly within the letter of policy. You could have stepped aside and let another editor revert, with the same outcome. Instead you chose to make a battle of it. Almost as if you enjoy battles, especially when you know you'll win. I think we could do with less of that. ―Mandruss ☎ 10:16, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

GraniteSand is a user in good standing, and free to post the concern if they feel it is meritous (bearing in mind they're then liable for the contents of it). I count three reversions there (unless I'm mistaken), and reverting the banned editor is a non-consideration, so it falls slightly short of being actionable. But reverting GraniteSand (or any other user in good standing) is not 3RR exempt. WilyD 10:48, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Even if the content is originally by a user not in good standing? Because I'm pretty sure there was just a whole arbitration case concerning this to some extent.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 10:58, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Banned users are not allowed to edit in any way, shape or form, regardless of the alleged quality of their edits. And standing up for banned users is not a good thing to be doing. ←Baseball Bugs carrots→ 10:14, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

No one is "standing up for a banned user". ―Mandruss ☎ 10:16, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

If you restore a banned editor's edits after they were deleted, then you're standing up for the banned editor. ←Baseball Bugs carrots→ 10:31, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Not necessarily. His edits were not restored because they were seen to be proper. They were restored because multiple editors felt it was (ethically) wrong for Ryulong to be the one removing them. ―Mandruss ☎ 10:33, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

And yet we have multiple attempts to explain that according to policy this was wrong to assume. Simply because the editor was complaining about me is immaterial to the fact that he should not have been editing anyway.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 10:47, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I put "ethically" in parens for emphasis and clarity. You do know the difference between legal and ethical? ―Mandruss ☎ 11:01, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Diff #3, while it looks like a minor copy edit, reverts Midnightblueowl's partial reversion of WWGB's edit here.- MrX 13:26, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I acknowledge the exercise of strong involvement in this article, however, my edit history shows that my edits were spread across a range of issues within the article, rather than just an edit war. I did not exceed three edits on any one issue (while acknowledging my understanding of WP:3RR). If it assists the resolution of this matter, I will stand aside from further edits of this article for 24 hours. Regards, WWGB (talk) 13:42, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

(edit conflict)I'm sorry, but you don't get three reverts per issue. I can't help but think that you may have been trying to WP:GAME the system. You certainly don't offer any assurances that you will stop edit warring after 24 hours, or that you will adhere to WP:BRD. You also ignored a warning and continued to edit war.- MrX 13:59, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I second MrX's concerns, and have felt WWGB's edits to be disruptive (albeit perhaps well-meaning) in this context. Particularly problematic for me has been their decision to refer to those making edits which they disagree with as "pathetic", in doing so showing no regard for Misplaced Pages:Civility. Midnightblueowl (talk) 13:50, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

There is a talk thread here where there seems to be a 4:1 verdict in favor of saying the parents were 'publicly accused of pushing her to suicide.' Can WWGB respond here to answer the talk thread? Is there any WP:BLP argument regarding the parents to show that WWGB's reverts were justifiable? Usually BLP is satisfied if a reliable source is linked, though I notice that there is no inline cite for 'publicly accused'. If WWGB won't accept the result of the talk thread, can they say if there are any conditions under which they would stop reverting? EdJohnston (talk) 18:50, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Just to provide an update, the talk page verdict is now at 5:1. Midnightblueowl (talk) 19:56, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

• Comment: There is no way this should have been reported here. Many (most?) of these reverts were undoing clear BLP violations: controversial claims about to living people linked to unreliable sources. WWGB was completely justified with this edit, for example, even if the edit summary was inappropriate. StAnselm (talk) 19:49, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
  • With due respect to StAnselm, I disagree completely. This was entirely the appropriate place for WWGB's behaviour to be discussed; they may be exonerated of any criticism, but it was the appropriate place for it to be discussed nonetheless. There were no BLP violations present, as the 5:1 consensus at the talk page appears to have vindicated. Midnightblueowl (talk) 19:56, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I don't know what "5:1 consensus" you mean - in any case, consensus is not determined by counting votes. According to our policy and long-standing consensus about reliable sources, WWGB was reverting a clear BLP violation. StAnselm (talk) 20:09, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Are you talking about Talk:Death of Leelah Alcorn#Disputed information regarding Alcorn's funeral? The five editors in question are saying that it was not reliably sourced according to BLP standards - that implies a BLP violation. StAnselm (talk) 20:13, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

No, that's not the section that we are referring to; the one in question is Talk:Death of Leelah Alcorn#"Alcorn's parents were publicly accused of pushing her to suicide". There, five editors have agreed that the edit in question was not a BLP violation, despite WWGB's insistent and repeated statements to the contrary. Midnightblueowl (talk) 20:21, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

StAnselm, that demonstrates a profound lack of comprehension of WP:BLP and it's rather hypocritical considering that you tried to rename a related article, Leelah's Law to Leelah's Alcorn Law and added {{sic}} to the lead. The content is sourced, which you well know, and if you didn't know, you could discover for yourself in about 17 seconds with minimal effort.- MrX 20:16, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Let's say is once again, slowly: BLP-related claims need to be reliably sourced, and the Daily Mail is not a reliable source. StAnselm (talk) 20:19, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I would add that StAnselm has been blocked before for edit warring while fallaciously claiming that he was defending against a BLP violation.- MrX 20:21, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

StAnselm, I respect you as an editor, but you are confusing two completely different debates over at the talk page; the one that is relevant here has nothing to do with the validity of the Daily Mail. That's a different debate being held in a different place. Best, Midnightblueowl (talk) 20:25, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Well, I see we were talking about two different things, but I wasn't confusing the issue - the Daily Mail edit was one of the reversions listed in the case report, and that's what I linked to in my initial comment. StAnselm (talk) 21:05, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

• No violation While I guess some edit summaries could be better, there were some serious BLP issues with some edits that needed to be reverted. No violation found. seicer | talk | contribs 20:28, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Which edits do you think needed to be reverted?. Please share your findings.- MrX 20:36, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Most of them - but particularly including the ones which suggest the (living) family "pushing her to suicide" which is, in every sense of the term, a "contentious claim about living persons." The use of "despite" is a "word to avoid" and the wording of the asserted cause of any funeral postponement requires strong sourcing per WP:BLP. In short - this complaint fails. Collect (talk) 20:55, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Collect, why is it that you seem to follow me to Arbcom cases, AN/EW, ANI, AE, and various other venues? Is it just coincidence? In any case, these are not BLP violations. The content did not state that her family "pushed her to suicide" which is the same non-sensiscal claim that the WWGB made on the article talk page that was roundly refuted. It stated that her family was accused of pushing her to suicide. These are very different things. For example, Dan Savage famously said that her parents 'Threw Her In Front Of That Truck'.- MrX 21:06, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

I do not "follow" you anywhere at all. in fact shows quite the opposite. When trying to cast stones at everyone else, one ought to look at one's own glass house. You should also note that I do comment at these boards, and you being here has naught to do with anything much at all. But it is nice to see you attacking everyone save yourself. Collect (talk) 21:29, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

• Practically anything sourced to the Daily Mail in a BLP-related article is a BLP vio, for starters. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 20:58, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Did you forget to mention this source or this one ?- MrX 21:16, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

And Dan Savage speaks from a extremely POV orientated view. Because of BLP we have to tread carefully with this issue. The Statement that the family pushed her to suicide is highly contentious and should carefully be examined before being used. I suggest moving this discussion back to the talk page. Avono (talk) 21:12, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

So what? - MrX 21:16, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Hell, I would have reverted this one on the grounds that this is an encyclopedia not a tabloid rag. Probably more of them, if I looked closer at it. ―Mandruss ☎ 21:09, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Let's be clear, this is not about PuffinSoc who's been at it for ages without ever bothering Curly Turkey (his talk page will show who tried to contact him more than once), it's about the fact that User:Curly Turkey:

• Reverted what I've deleted and when I added a relevance template, he removed that too .
• Falsely accused me of trolling.
• Attacked me again personally, instead of answering the question.
  • Neither an attack, nor a justification for editwarring. Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 20:28, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
• Thinks that the three-revert rule (3RR) does not apply to him (I can provide diffs of the his reverts if needed). MoorNextDoor (talk) 06:19, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Uninvolved Editor Comment: I just spent some time looking at the underlying dispute here after seeing it at ANi. I also just evaluated parts of this report. The first 4 diffs against MoorNextDoor do not prove edit warring. The first is the deletion of a paragraph being fought over. The next three are insertions of dispute tags, which keep getting removed. No violation by MoorNextDoor. The counter accusations by MoorNextDoor against Curly are also without much merit in my estimation, although removing the relevance template and the linked comments are not really helpful to deescalate the situation. The second set of diffs 71-74 is indeed 4RR on the same issue by MoorNextDoor. Legacypac (talk) 07:40, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Yes it's disputed but the 3rd gunman at the supermarket did pledge to ISIL, and there are doubts about AQAP. I'm not going to argue one way or another or a third way about AQ's role, I'm just looking to use the existing 1RR policy and community sanctions for ISIL on a somewhat related article.

Are you saying that the three-revert rule (3RR) does not apply to User:Curly Turkey ?

On top of the 3 I've already listed, you have to add some more reverts to his account (more could be found if necessary):

The Issue was and is still being debated, there was no consensus.

• • Nor was there consensus to remove.

Declined – All the listed reverts are more than 24 hours old. The language being removed by MoorNextDoor in the second set of reverts was "Franco-Algerian Muslim brothers". The words he was removing can't be justified from sources, since the brothers were born in Paris. The French Misplaced Pages states that "Les frères Kouachi sont français de parents algériens," and our sources here agree with that. EdJohnston (talk) 05:43, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: 19 hours before 4th revert

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk:Dieudonné_M'bala_M'bala#.22I_am_Charlie_Coulibaly.22

Comments:

• By my count, the four reverts are within the 24 hour window by a slim margin of 15 minutes (20 hours between first and last revert). Saint91 has been pushing a POV supportive of comments made by the subject, Dieudonné M'bala M'bala, that sources describe as having been controversial, racist, and under investigation. He's relied on quotes from the subject themselves to dispute the mainstream viewpoint. His edits create a WP:WEIGHT problem by giving the subject's minority viewpoint 60% prominence in the section. This has been explained on the talk page and in edit summaries. He was also warned on his talk page. His replies have been that we should 'add more negative information' after he's written a suitable rebuttal.--v/r - TP 17:50, 16 January 2015 (UTC)
