No 3RR warning given, but the editor is experienced enough to know. The edit summary #5 is also quite toxic personal attack. I think given the situation a serious warning at least is in order. Kautilya3 (talk) 01:47, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

The editor that was targeted did take it quite hard, understandably. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 01:50, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

I didn't have the sense that I had reverted three times. Have I checked Kautilya3's accounting? I have not. Why? Because I think the more important issue here is something else.

India-POV-promoting editors have been relentlessly editing Pakistan-related pages, promoting Hindu majoritarian- (or anti-Pakistan) POV. It is toxic, utterly, and shamefully toxic. They don't know anything about Pakistan, but because the Pakistani editors on Wikipedia are exhausted, tired, and unable to counter, the Indians or India-POVers are getting away/ They promote cultural irredentism. They claim Pakistan by some fantasy of Indian reunification, claiming Pakistanis, who are Muslim, as converted Hindus, or rubbing this in by whatever it takes. Someone has to come to the Pakistani's defense. I am the author of the FA India and the prime author of the History of Pakistan, Kashmir, British Raj, Company rule in India, Indus Valley Civilization, Partition of India, Indian rebellion of 1857, in other words, most things in Indian history that have anything to do with the current impasse between India and Pakistan. Do they really think I don't know what is going on here?

Do what you must, but please don't forget that the ultimate goal of Wikipedia is the creation of NPOV content, not nickel and diming rules and playing gotcha. Kautilya3, the reporter, engages in India-promotion himself. He routinely does this in India-China and India-Pakistan issues. What does he know about Swat? Nothing. The India-POV promoters, moreover, adopt comical identities: they pose as Pakistanis. As Pakistanis, they make only gnomish edits on Pakistan-related pages (why? because to do anything more would require knowledge). But they make reams and reams on Hindu-majoritarian topics. They award Pakistan Order of Merit barnstars to Pakistan-bashers from India. They award barnstars to each other at the drop of a hat. Have they written anything of consequence on Wikipedia? They haven't, nothing. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 02:07, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

• Comment: I am a Pakistani from the the KPK province and have seen your edits on Wikipedia. They in no way "defend Pakistan" but promote your British imperialist POV in Pakistan - you wrote an essay in one of your subpages defending colonialism in pre-partition subcontinent. Look at the talk page and see that everyone reached a consensus and then you Fowler&fowler came and started edit warring on the article. You Fowler&fowler have made what I perceive as prejudice statements like the one you have in your edit summary and have been warned before, yet you still make them. Will you say you're sorry and stop? These are some I found disturbing:

1. If Hindu practice results in the deaths of thousands of individuals, as it does in this case, through water borne diseases, why should I "understand" why Hindus cause these deaths.  Concern for human life is more important than cultural relativist kowtowing to a religion.[1]
2. We don't need papers in palaeogenomics to see that.  We have only to look around to see the vast and brutal inequalities Hinduism has created in Indian society.[2]
3. During our visits to India, my family and I have very likely buried more stray dogs and cats, all either run over, or otherwise killed, by Ahimsa-loving Hindus, than the number of times editors here have uttered aloud the word Ahimsa.  (Especially, cats (domesticated cats): have you wondered why their yowling is never heard in Hindu neighborhoods in India, except in the hills?  That is because they are all shooed-away, or have rocks or sticks thrown at them, by superstition-loving Ahimsa-loving Hindus. You have to go to a Muslim neighborhood to see a cat.)[3]
4. Goodness knows, there were plenty European evangelists around to help them spiritually and British administrators to grant them economic and educational favors. But most Hindus chose to reassert their caste status or assert even higher caste status.[4]
5. If it is not old-fashioned racism, it is the kind that makes Indians (and I don't mean any WP editor) unload their insecurities about being equated with blacks (the Lord forbid).[5] Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 02:39, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

A case in point. A relatively new editor, who knows more about my edits (with diffs to boot) than he does about anything substantive on WP. He pulls these diffs out of the hat on every occasion. He awards a barnstar a day to his POV pals. His POV pals pull the same diffs out of their hats and grant a barnstar every other day to him. See his talk page, and theirs; they will appear here soon enough. Is WP about this? Fowler&fowler«Talk» 03:01, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Are some of these editors sockpuppets of the banned Hindu- and India-POV pusher user:Highpeaks35? The vehemence against me is tell-tale. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 03:57, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

The edit summary like Anupam has been promoting toxic Hindu supre4mecist POV espeically in Pakistan related pages for nearly 14 years; he is now joined by LearnIndology and Zakaria; rv to K3's last" is really problematic. Also, portraying Wikipedia as a battle ground for editors of different nations and casting aspersions against other editors, including the editor who filed the report won't be helpful. See this diff. You need to avoid such behavior. ─ The Aafī ^(talk) 11:09, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

If it weren't a battleground, ARBIPA sanctions would not be there. If it weren't a battleground, I wouldn't need to do work for the NPOV lead and map in place in all Kashmir-related pages, especially Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan, Jammu and Kashmir (union territory), Ladakh, Aksai Chin, and Azad Kashmir. Do you see that they all have the same NPOV format? That did not happen overnight; it took an enormous effort, mostly by me. See the RFC and map discussion. View the admins on board there. I received thanks from them. But did I get any from the people here who are champing at the bit to have a go at me, including you? None at all. I do all the thankless work. But if in quickly fixing a POV-fork of the stub Torwali language I make a transgression, I'm dragged to ANI. Kautilya3 could not have left a message on my talk page? When he needed me to fix the 2020 Delhi riots page (see it's NPOV state which has now held for 11 months) he was quick to ask for help on my talk page. Where were you, my friend, The Aafi? I've never seen you anywhere on these pages, but you apparently watch my edits with the eyes of a hawk and make sanctimonious admonitions here? Fowler&fowler«Talk» 14:00, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Arbcom needs to take another look at India-Pakistan. There is entirely too much India-POV-tinkering going on in Pakistan-related pages, all by Indian or India-POV editors. The Pakistanis, in contrast, do very little on Indian pages. This has created an untenable and iniquitous situation. Just imagine: if someone like me, with a history of integrity in India-Pakistan issues, am being dragged to ANI for a relatively minor sin (which I haven't even bothered to examine because I think bigger issues are at stake), what chances do Pakistani editors have in stemming the rot of the Indian-POV on their pages? Arbcom really does need to take another look. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 14:18, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

• 50 kbytes on talk this month (almost none of it by F&F) for a very poor, repetitive article at 7 kbytes! Talk page quotes to 3rd parties being dragged up from 3 years ago or more.... Business as usual in this area. Suggest close. Johnbod (talk) 14:24, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
• Considering that User:Fowler&fowler has engaged in an edit war on the article without engaging at all in the talk page [[6]] means that they are not following wikipedia protocol WP:BRD. Since the issue is being discussed in the talk page, User:Fowler&fowler must discuss his ideas in the talk page first before engaging in editing the article again. I understand that it is a controversial article, but there has to be control and restraint by all editors before it gets out of hand. Find better sources, ask for an RFC, suggest another section in the article where Fowler&fowler's sources or views can be presnted, and above all try to reach a consensus in the talk page before editing once your edits are disputed. If such behavior persists then a temporary article block or temporary user block would be in order to enforce cooperation between.Ramos1990 (talk) 07:37, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

I don't know who this editor is, but s/he has misunderstood my revert. I reverted Anupam because he had removed the POV tag added by Kautilya3, then moved the disputed text into the viewable quotes of the citations, and expanded that text significantly. After my revert, Anupam did not first open a talk page discussion per BRD, he reverted my revert, then posted on the talk page. Look, the article's talk page discussion has been going on for a long time. Anupam has been trying throughout to sneak in common POV insinuations (converted Hindus or Buddhists, etc, etc) by way of the most obscure sources (whose use can support the craziest assertions). I am going back to my vacation. Before I do so, I would like to apologize to Kautilya3 for some uncharitable things I said in my statement (which I have now scratched). He is an admirably neutral and NPOV editor with a much longer fuse than mine. I'm glad that he continues to be there on the article's talk page. I am a little disappointed by his filing this AN3. He could have left a note on my talk page. To the overseeing admins: do what you must. As I said, I am returning to my vacation. I do think that Indian (i.e. India-POV promoting) editors have swamped Pakistani pages. Arbcom needs to take another look at India-Pakistan 1RR etc does nothing because there are many more Indian editors than Pakistani. Consequently, many Pakistan-related pages are no longer neutral, the faults on average lying at the doorsteps of the Indians. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 13:11, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Thank you Fowler&fowler. I don't really need an apology, but Anupam does. His approach is different from yours or mine, but it is a stretch to brand him a "Hindu supremacist" (if at all anybody can be so branded). -- Kautilya3 (talk) 15:18, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

• Result: User:Fowler&fowler and User:Anupam are warned. F&F says that Anupam is promoting a 'toxic Hindu supremacist POV', while Anupam says F&F is a 'long-term communal POV pusher'. If these attacks continue it's going to cause trouble. No other action taken. WP:AE sanctions, if they were imposed, would make it harder to edit in this area.

It does not seem to me that producing a neutral version of Torwali people should be all that hard. In other topic areas I doubt we would take any notice at all of a 'deeply-rooted oral tradition' that could very well be completely mistaken. EdJohnston (talk) 19:45, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

No 3RR warning given, but the editor is experienced enough to know. See also the above report for User:Fowler&fowler. Kautilya3 (talk) 01:59, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

I admit that I was not paying attention to the number of reverts that I made and I humbly apologize for this. For the past few days, I and other editors were working on the talk page to reach consensus on the talk page. We did that today and when the other editor started blanking sections of the article, I became a bit frustrated, especially after I tried using the talk page and received no response besides continued edit warring. If the reviewing administrator would like me to revert any of my changes or to revert all of my recent edits, I would be happy to do that. I am sorry for any inconvenience that this has caused anyone. I wish you all a joyful holiday season and a Happy New Year. Respectfully, Anupam^Talk 02:09, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

• Anupam is a good faith editor who has positively contributed to WikiProject Pakistan and WikiProject India for a number of years. They have apologized for edit warring and are willing to revert. I don't see the need for any remediation here. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 04:37, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
• User:Anupam seems to have been following wikipedia protocol of WP:BRD and was and still is in discussion of the changes with Kautilya3 and another editor in the talk page [7]. The issue is how User:Fowler&fowler just stepped in all of a sudden and started to revert without ever engaging in the discussion in the talk page. See the talk history of that page [8]. Fowler&fowler is not even found there. Since the issue is being discussed in the talk page, User:Fowler&fowler must discuss his ideas in the talk page first before engaging in editing the article. It looks a bit messy because of all of this. From my past intersections with User:Aniupam, I have not seen much edit wars of this kind so I think that if reverting stops, then there should be no further action aside from a warning. Clearly User:Anupam is trying to redirect User:Fowler&fowler to go to the talk page and stop edit warring with the reverts.Ramos1990 (talk) 07:22, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

User is a sock (see here for SPI), and they are edit warring with me on multiple of their user/subpages. Long story short, they copied a bunch of text off of my userspace. My main userpage, my userbox page, my articles page, my sandbox, my talk page and more. For some (sandbox, talk, articles), they copied verbatim what was there. For others (main, UBX), they adjusted it to their own fit (but it was minor things like changing my username to theirs, specifying the userboxes, etc). I normally don't have a problem with the latter (User:JackReynoldsADogOwner is an example), I find it quite flattering. But, this is a sockpuppet who has annoyed me for months, and has caused me to catch every single one of their sockpuppets. I also requested speedy deletion of their userspace (by criterion G5), and they keep reverting me. Yes, I know technically we are both exempt to 3RR (it's their userspace but I'm reverting a blocked sockpuppet), but I felt the need to report them anyways.

Comments:

My apologies for any errors in the reporting of this incident. Wikipedia user ‘Doug Weller’ aggressively and abusively censored my attempts to contribute in the discussion of the above mentioned ‘Stop the steal’ page. Now, I understand this is a politicized topic, but an editor such as ‘Doug Weller’ should tread carefully. Wikipedia’s reputation is already shoddy when it comes to politicized entries. Aggressively shutting down individuals interested in collaborating to improve the neutrality of the entry is not a good tack. ‘Doug Weller’ posted obnoxiously on my own Talk page and then challenged me to report them. They clearly need a check. I understand that senior Wikipedia editors might revel in their ability to use this platform’s complex system of codes, rules, and procedures to their personal political advantage. I have been bullied by senior editors already. I’m sure ‘Doug Weller’ has done their best to portray themself as a very experienced, very fair moderator of knowledge. Perhaps, to some degree, they are. I’m sure ‘Doug Weller’ has a good deal of respect. However, this person and any editor should never abuse their power for the sole purpose of pushing a political agenda. We are dealing with the organization and preservation of the knowledge of humanity. I urge you to take a step back from power politics and consider what it means to be fair, balanced, and neutral when approaching our task here.

This is a malformed request which should be promptly closed. Doug Weller has done nothing but patiently point out to the reporting user that we require reliable sources for all material on Wikipedia - that "being "fair, balanced, and neutral" does not mean treating all viewpoints or ideologies equally. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 02:30, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

This is a written lie. Look at Doug Weller’s Talk page.

You have not provided a single example of Doug Weller not being a very experienced, very fair moderator of knowledge. To the contrary, they have shown nothing but patience with your bizarre insistence that we take the word of charlatans and grifters over every reliable source and court of law in the United States. We're not going to do that, ever, period, the end. You can stop demanding it, because it's not going to happen. Wikipedia is not a platform for free speech, and you have three rights here - the right to your contributions (as licensed), the right to fork, and the right to leave. That you disagree with our policies and guidelines as applied to Stop the Steal is unfortunate, but irreconcilable. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 02:47, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Why is NorthBySouthBerenof taking such a passionate stand here? He has been censoring me repeatedly in the past several hours in my attempts to bring some rational balance to one of Wikipedia’s pages. I have reported him separately for bullying me and posting abusively on my Talk page. See the report below. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Haerdt (talk • contribs) 06:29, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

"Balance" does not mean even-handed or 50/50 or taking both sides at their word. That would be a ridiculous violation of core rules on neutrality. Perhaps WP isn't for you if you can't accept that we give due weight based on external sources, not based on editors' desires to see certain viewpoints. That's a problem that can get you blocked. But again, I emphasize that if you are reporting Doug for edit-warring and wanting to see action taken against them, it is your responsibility to back up that concern with specific evidence. No evidence==no action. DMacks (talk) 06:35, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

I understand, thank you DMacks. I will withdraw my report on Doug Weller. I appreciate the clarification. Haerdt (talk) 07:00, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

The editor ‘NorthBySouthBaranof initially took a stand for his similarly minded editor friend ‘Doug Weller’ — see my previous filed report. ‘NorthBySouthBaranof’ then aggressively twice censorsd my attempt to provide a legitimate link supporting the claim that evidence exists, which has been disputed in the Talk section of this article at length. ‘NorthBySouthBerenof’ then aggressively posted in my personal Talk section citing Wikipedia guidelines and claiming that in his opinion the weblink I provided was not legit. I have linked another website above in the diff section to a website I just discovered was on Wikipedia’s ban list. I will be attempting edit with another news article from The Gateway Pundit. Despite the reality that these are right wing news sites, the article cites only left wing news sites. Haerdt (talk) 05:40, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

I will be attempting edit with another news article from The Gateway Pundit. Q.E.D. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 05:48, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

NorthBySouthBerenof is now abusively bullying me across several fronts, while preventing legitimate additions to the StoptheSteal page. He is citing Wikipedia code to support censoring information from legitimate right wing news sites. Clearly this contributor is an activist on the left wing. Haerdt (talk) 06:10, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

censoring information from legitimate right wing news sites. As clearly expressed by the community, The Gateway Pundit is not a "legitimate" news site, and is in point of fact notorious for publishing fabrications, falsehoods, lies, and patent nonsense. As I alluded to above, that Haerdt believes anything published in The Gateway Pundit is fit for Wikipedia suggests that they lack the competence required to effectively edit Wikipedia, as they are unable to appropriately distinguish between the use of acceptable and unacceptable sources. They're welcome to find some other project to contribute to, such as Conservapedia or Metapedia, where standards for sourcing are... different, and possibly more to their liking. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 06:18, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

NorthBySouthBerenof is championing a movement among Wikipedia contributors to censor the entire right wing of political news. This is an extremely dangerous practice. Haerdt (talk) 06:27, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

• No action seems necessary other than the ECP protection of Stop the Steal which was performed by another admin as a result of a request at WP:RFPP. @Haerdt: You have not identified which edits are supposed to be an edit-warring problem. A look at the article history shows edit warring but not any problem from the reported editor. Please do not accuse an editor of "abusively bullying me" when it appears that all that has happened is that the basics of editing in accord with policies have been outlined.

This is abusive and bullying. I am providing legitimate informational sources to real events and occurrances. Bishonen, do not make your blindness to world events my problem. Bishonen has taken offense to me pointing out to other editors that their censorship of my edits is fascist. Well, I am calling a spade a spade. When you throw the book at me for legitimate attempts to provide factual basis for a Wikipedia entry, and then restrict my access, that is a fascist technique. Perhaps you should learn how to hold civil discussion and collaboratively build an encyclopedia with people of differing viewpoints from your own instead of directly applying censhorship techniques. Bishonen, NorthBySouthBerenof, and Doug Weller could have assisted with finding a legitimate source for the information I presented to the community for the above mentioned article. Instead, they harshly applied standing policy and aggressively bullied me. This is not the conduct of an open and free project.

Haerdt, it is your personal responsibility to read and understand Wikipedia policies and guidelines before editing. I and other editors have repeatedly linked you to those policies - you need to read and comprehend them. Your repeated references to "free speech" are evidence that you have not - Wikipedia is expressly not a platform for free speech and therefore those words have no meaning on this project. We are here to build an encyclopedia based upon what is verifiable in reliable sources. It is verifiable in reliable sources that there was no significant electoral fraud in the 2020 American presidential election, and that Joseph R. Biden has been elected by the Electoral College as the 46th President of the United States. That you disagree with these conclusions is irrelevant - they're what reliable sources say, unanimously. You can either edit in compliance with those sources, or you can choose to edit other parts of the encyclopedia, or you can choose to depart from the project. Those are your choices. "Telling Wikipedia readers that the election was stolen and Donald Trump is the real president" is not one of those choices. Bishonen, NorthBySouthBerenof, and Doug Weller could have assisted with finding a legitimate source for the information I presented to the community - There is no "legitimate source" for the claim that there was any significant electoral fraud in the 2020 election or that any such fraud affected the outcome. That "information" is false, and doesn't belong on Wikipedia. Again, that you disagree with that conclusion is regrettable, but not solvable here. If you don't like Wikipedia's content policies, you have two choices: attempt to change those policies (good luck) or leave the project and find something more to your liking. You might try Conservapedia or Metapedia. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 21:31, 31 December 2020 (UTC) Note This is not a 3RR report, and I am not going to take action.

Didn't notice I had passed 3 reverts. I wanted to revert my 4th revert, but since there's been many edits since my 4th edit, I decided I shouldn't mess things up. Though, I have to say that this diff and this diff were me reverting obvious vandalism which is an exception in WP:3RR. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 08:51, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

CuriousGolden You are an experienced user, hence I don't buy the argument that you AGAIN "were not aware of / did not realise / did not notice" your 3RR violation (while diligently counting another editor's reverts and reporting them for the same thing). The rule was explained to you by an admin just two months ago, again in relation to NKR-related articles, resulting in 2 weeks of editing abstinence, yet you continued the bad habit of reverting other users' edits over trying to reach consensus on the article talk page (and Battle of Shusha (2020) and 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war are good examples of it]. Vandalism is blanking the page or posting offensive stuff on the page, not good-faith changes done by Haydar Pamuk who was reviewing the article for academic accuracy to make it GA article, whom you and other pro-Azerbaijani editors reverted many times without engaging in discussion on talk page and whom you managed to get him blocked without giving him a chance to self revert or making sure he is aware of 3RR violation. Please take the responsibility for your actions and don't pretend naive this time, I can see signs of WP:GAMING in you activity in NKR-related topic, and it does not look like soft measures like warning / explaining / temporary abstinence resulted in any improvement of your behavior. Regards Armatura (talk) 13:46, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

"Didn't notice" wasn't an argument, it was there to inform that I didn't pass 3rd edit intentionally. And no, I wasn't topic banned as you implied, me and the admin made an agreement to avoid a specific article for 2 weeks, which I did. "and whom you managed to get blocked without giving him a chance to self revert or making sure he is aware of 3RR violation" The guy reverted 5 times, which means he can't self-revert and he was given 3RR warning before the report or else he wouldn't have got banned. If you have problem with his ban, talk to Ymblanter, not me. And no, I didn't call Haydar Pamuk's edits vandalism. I called this diff and this diff vandalism, both of which you failed to address. The diffs' bad faith and vandalism are further proven by the discussion opened by one of the vandals on the same article's talk page. Rest of your comment is baseless and offensive accusations (which cross the line for WP:ASPERSIONS), so I won't waste my time replying to them. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 14:42, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

CuriousGoldenI am sorry to say this but your habit of reverting rather than trying to reach a consensus goes above and beyond a single article or a single editor's edits, one can just have a look in your contributions log to see how many times you reverted others in various articles in last couple of months in NKR-related articles, pushing your POV, whenever you didn't like somebody else's edits; are you going to claim that all those editors were vandals? I have not "implied" anything, please do not skew my comment, you were given a choice between a ban and abstinence for 2 weeks by a very kind admin EdJohnston, not that you had a better option, and this repeated violation of the same rule within 2 months tells me the first measure did not result in improvement of your methods. I have elaborated about the case of Haydar Pamuk in the discussion above this one, to keep this one focused. Regards, Armatura (talk) 15:34, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

Yep, still no mention of the fact that 2 of the 4 reverts you provided were me revering obvious vandalism, which is an exception in WP:3RR. If you have a problem with any of my reverts on any articles, point them out in the appropriate article's talk page and we'll reach a consensus, like I have done so many times. Unfortunately, when you don't do that and come here and complain about my edits on random articles, I see nothing except WP:JDLI. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 15:38, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

CuriousGolden Just one of the possible examples, where you were repeatedly asked by another user Sataralynd to stop repeated reverts and engage in discussion to reach a consensus. Roughly at the same time when you have done 14 reverts within 48 hours in 4 NKR-connected articles as reported by another user Գարիկ Ավագյան. This is despite being alerted to the WP:ARBAA2 sanctions back in April 2020. Also, perhaps before labeling others' edits as "vandalism", I think it would be useful to have a refresher on what is vandalism and what is not vandalism, especially the section on "Disruptive editing or stubbornness" ("Some users cannot come to agreement with others who are willing to talk to them about an editing issue, and repeatedly make changes against consensus. Edit warring is not vandalism and should not be dealt with as such. Dispute resolution may help. All vandalism is disruptive editing, but not all disruptive editing is vandalism"). Armatura (talk) 18:02, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

User:Armatura, did you look carefully at the fourth revert you put in the list above?. CuriousGolden was removing this fascinating bit of unsourced speculation by an IP editor who said that Erdogan was planning to settle Syrian mercenaries in Kharabagh:

There Syrian Jihadists participating in the battle on the Azerbaijani side sent there with weapons after they crossed on foot into Turkish borders. They were sent by Erdogan, where he plotted a plan to settle syrian mercenaries in Kharabagh. It is now a confirmed fact. This article left out everything about the Syrian Jihadists and its a shame they are hiding the fact that Armenia was fight a war against terrorists whom said themselves that the Azerbaijanis stayed at the lines getting drunk while they sent the mercenaries forward to die. If this truth is removed than this article is nothing more than a make believe trophy because all shit floats to the surface one day..

Armatura, do you seriously think it would be beneficial to the encyclopedia to keep these words in the article (including 'all shit floats to the surface one day'), and with no source? EdJohnston (talk) 22:00, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

EdJohnston, I definitely don't (I just noticed the fascinating piece you mentioned, sorry, and I have already warned the author of those lines on the talk page for violating civility on talk page, before even reading those lines), but I would still like admins to have a look at the history of reverts by CuriousGolden, please, and not only in this article. As I said earlier, it is not just this article that I worry about (already asked for 1RR limitation for it to admins familiar with NKR topics) , but the user's very low threshold for reverting others' edits in general (e.g. > 10 reverts in various articles just for 27/12/2020). For my information, perhaps the most effective way of dealing with perceived recurring vandalism would be reporting to admins rather than engaging in edit warring? Regards, Armatura (talk) 23:16, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

I agree with Armatura, I have also seen signs of WP:GAMING in CuriousGolden's activity regarding NKR articles over the past few months. Time and time again the user's pro-Azerbaijani agenda becomes more evident. The user has a habit to make edits which clearly have a pro-Azeri bias. I've noticed the user tends to make vague edit summaries while sneakily altering information to tip articles towards a more pro-Azeri stance. In the case of Uzundara, the user and I came to a consensus in September, the editor then made edits in October contrasting the consensus (without engaging in any discussion). I proceeded to leave a message in the talk page of that article, which was ignored. Meanwhile, over at Political status of Nagorno-Karabakh, the user ended up making changes to the article while on-going talk page discussions were taking place and before a consensus was reached. When I advised the user of this, the user was very quick to point fingers and talk about "maintaining etiquette". The user has been very quick to accuse myself, Laurel Lodged, and others of either POV pushing or edit warring in the past, when they themselves have been sanctioned from editing due to edit warring. Quite hypocritical behaviour. All in all, this user knows exactly what they are doing and I also urge Admins to have a deeper look into their general pro-Azeri bias and manipulative editing tactics. Regards, Archives908 (talk) 15:24, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

I can confirm that gaming is afoot; his modus operandi is to revert edits he does not like, accuse the reverted editor of edit warring and then leave boiler plate, passive-aggressive-official-sounding warnings on the talk page of the offending editor in the hope of bullying him away from making further reversions. See my edit log for a sad litany of these kinds of edits and bullying behaviour. He is protected and supported in this behaviour by a coterie of like-minded editors with Turkish/Azeri sympathies. Laurel Lodged (talk) 17:40, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

And if you think that my reversion log with him is impressive, you should have a look at @AntonSamuel: who must have the patience of Job. Laurel Lodged (talk) 19:05, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Well said, Laurel Lodged. He has been and is unrelenting in pushing his pro-Azeri views; backed by a loyal band of followers. It is more then clear that the user has a biased WP:POV and WP:UNDUE agenda. Glancing at their edit history, this becomes self-evident. The user has switched language translations and de jure/de facto status in several articles to put Azerbaijan first and Armenian second, has removed or re-adjusted wordings to tip information in favor of Azerbaijan, and so forth (often times providing zero explanation). When editors try to restore balance/neutrality, the user is quick to revert and/or proceed with a hostile critique. This uncivil behaviour, backed by their aggressive editing tactics, is by far constructive... yet alone appropriate. Furthermore, nothing has changed since they were sanctioned last- so, "not knowing" cannot justify as an excuse anymore. I fear this behaviour will continue indefinitely. Regards, Archives908 (talk) 23:53, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

• Result: No action at this time. But if reverting continues at Battle of Shusha (2020) more serious admin action is possible under WP:ARBAA2. EdJohnston (talk) 01:57, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Curious to know how this decision was made, considering the above testimony from 3 different editors? Archives908 (talk) 02:05, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

I too am baffled as to how the evidence above could result in a "No action" decision. Laurel Lodged (talk) 15:58, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Agreed, I believe this case should be reviewed by another Admin. No valid explanation or rationale was provided why (despite all the evidence/testimony) this resulted in "no action". The biased WP:POV and WP:UNDUE edits, general WP:GAMING, continual violation of WP:3RR, and "bullying" tactics described by 3 different editors deserves recognition. Regards, Archives908 (talk) 16:13, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Guys, do you think we can not see anything? Do you think we do not see that there are requests here against Armenian editors with Azerbaijani editors piling up, and there are requests against Azerbaijani editors with Armenian editors piling up? Do you think we do not know that some of you support the Armenian side in 100% cass, and other support the Azerbaijani side in 100% cases? And that all of you clearly demonstrate battleground behavior? We block the most egregious cases, but, fine, we can start blocking in all the cases for edit-warring or even for disruptive editing - then all of you are going to be blocked within a week.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:27, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

That statement is a tad bit dramatic, and generalizing is very dangerous. While I don't disagree with you that tensions are high, this is more then just simple "vandalism"- we are noticing a pattern of behaviour here. It's best to stay focused and examine the information presented on a case-by-case basis, rather then making generalizations or rash assumptions. Archives908 (talk) 16:36, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Furthermore, nothing is wrong with asking for explanation as to why this case resulted in "no action". Especially since, no explanation was even provided. Archives908 (talk) 16:39, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Dear Ymblanter, EdJohnston, elaborating on the logic of the decision would be appreciated. It is understandably easier to diagnose/rule out an issue in a given article rather than in the user's general behaviour, but as others mentioned there are systematic signs of gaming the system, article ownership, chronic edit warring in the user's log, have you looked into it carefully? No action is going to mean green light for further reverts, and if the user avoids revert warring in Battle of Shusha, he is going to continue in other NKR/Armenia/Azerbaijan-related articles, as before. I would avoid generalizations please - e.g. the profile / interests of Laurel_Lodged do not look Armenian and I am noticing the profile of Archives908 for the first time here in this discussion, in case you are wondering about some anti-Azerbaijani conspiracy. I would rather be interested to hear what you call the phenomenon when several Azerbaijani editors do the same revert, careful not to exceed the limitation of reverts over 24 hours and yet succeeding to keep the version of the article they collectively like - same Battle of Shusha and Nagorno Karabakh war articles are bright examples of collective reverting, is there no regulatory measure for this? Now please look into my log and find any such behavior. And I don't see why you would treat Azerbaijanis and Armenians differently from the rest of the editors - could you please apply the same WP rules regardless of nationality, race, color, gender, religion and other protected characteristics? Regards, Armatura (talk) 19:37, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Well, I just know there is off-wiki coordination. In 2010, I was an arbitrator in the Russian Wikipedia, and we had to consider a case about Azerbaijani off-wiki coordination similar to WP:EEML (and some of the current warriors were on the mailing list). We knew about its existence because someone infiltrated in the list and sent the content to us. We never considered a similar Armenian list, though I am sure it exists, just nobody managed to infiltrate there. Concerning your remarks about the editors background, what I see is fully polarized partisan editing, when every user here takes either 100% Armwenian side, or 100% Azerbaijani side. May I please remind you that a few days ago you repeatedly appealed to me to protect a NOTHERE pro-Armenian user with 25 edits, arguing they have not been warned enough? And the user was subsequently blocked (not by me) for sockpuppetry. When I see any of you defending NOTHERE Azerbaijani users, I might change my opinion, but for the time being what I see is a clearly partisan division, and in this episode we see a bunch of Armenian or pro-Armenian editors, who found a way to this closed discussion at an obscure noticeboard to try to block one editor on the opposite side. You see, even if the user is eventually blocked, this is not going to help you as soon as this partisan editing persists. As soon as every side consider reverts the main dispute resolution avenue there will always be someone reverting. The supply is sufficient, and what we (administrators) are doing is to reduce the demand.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:47, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Ymblanter thanks very much for elaborating on your previous replies, I am glad an admin raises the issue of off-WP coordinated action. One can vouch for what one knows, though, not for what one therorises. I, too, have seen Azerbaijani trial of off-WP coordination resulting in violation of WP:CANVAS. May I ask how come people on a known list of off-WP coordination are still allowed to edit? Why is it tolerated by English WP admins? We should look at users' actions, and not nationality: being of Azerbaijani or Armenian nationality/sympathy should not protect any user on WP. Being of Russian background might have resulted in stereotyping Caucasian people from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, etc, but may I ask to avoid stereotyping nationalities on WP, please? The pro-Armenian user was collectively reverted by virtually every Azerbaijani editor in Battle of Shusha 2020 article, and I wanted to make sure admins realise that, even if he violated a rule (for which he was rightfully blocked). I don't support vandalism or "khaltura" from either side. You wanted an example of non-partisan behaviour, you can see me warning a pro-Armenian user who was uncivil against Azerbaijani editors on at Battle of Shusha Talkpage, I asked another pro-Armenian user to self-revert their 4th edit over 24 hours and you have seen me asking for 1RR protection rather than engaging in the battle, are you still of the same opinion? And you said As soon as every side consider reverts the main dispute resolution avenue there will always be someone reverting., can you please look in my log to see the number of reverts? Indiscriminate blaming and stereotyping both sides is not going to benefit Wikipedia, either. Regards, Armatura (talk) 12:12, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

I do not think we should be discussing this any longer, as soon as you have come to this conclusion. You are welcome to report me to WP:AN or even to WP:AE of course. Have a nice day.--Ymblanter (talk) 12:33, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Somalia has no jurisdiction over Somaliland, it is therefore misleading to indicate this area as being under Somalia, as that would indicate Somalian control, which is false.

Just like how Taiwanese towns aren't marked as part of China, Somaliland towns shouldn't be marked as part of Somalia either. I believe a consensus has already been reached earlier in regards to this.

It seems you're driven by your political affiliation and your bias is at play here. No one is disputing Somaliland's lack of recognition, but marking its towns as part of Somalia is very misleading. Somalia isn't a complete state either.

Excuse me, but I am NOT vandalising the page, nor am I attacking or harassing you, so quit lying. I never said I was the owner of the article, but it seems you have a problem with how one particular section looks to the rest, and where was my "final warning"?. Neither you or anyone else on the above article in mention have issued any warnings. So that's another lie. Also, I have NOT said/done anything to dictate you in anyway. Jesus, how many lies just you come up with?! L1amw90 (talk) 23:20, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

L1amw90 (talk) 23:36, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Yes, that was a reply to your insult that I mentioned above, and you know it. So no, I did not aim an abuse at you. It was absolutely justified given the content of your insult.

Regarding your second point, I hope you are joking. On the opposite, I was defending other readers and telling you to stop making them idiots. Please learn to read with understanding. But this is getting awkward. Obviously you are incapable of having a decent and constructive discussion, so I would end it here.

I'm not incapable of anything, it's you who has an issue with me. All I'm trying to do is assume good faith by adding a completely new section into a separate article, but you keep going behind me and undoing it for no reason. I've told you multiple times about it being the same on 2020 PDC World Darts Championship but you just keep ignoring the fact that it has to be under the draw section etc, whereas if it has its own section, it is much easier to find and less confusing, but no, you just won't have it.

• The IP editor clearly has a specific point of view about the controversy connecting Baby Esther, Helen Kane and Betty Boop, and is edit warring here and on those other articles to force their PoV into the articles. Betty Boop history, Helen Kane history Beyond My Ken (talk) 04:45, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

• • And why was Ewulp not similarly warned?

And no, I don't "have a specific point of view". I am trying to clean up articles written like bad blogs, using WP:RS, and removing unsourced material. The only "forcing POV" is coming from Beyondmyken and Ewulp.

I have repeatedly tried discussing these issues on the relevant discussion pages, but these get ignored.

Also, take note of the Robert O'Meally "quotation", which both Beyondmyken and Ewulp had no problem with. That "quote"(around which ALL this has been built out of whole cloth) turned out to be a deliberate LIE. 197.89.10.25 (talk) 06:39, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

Let's put things in perspective. The entire Baby Esther article was created by someone called "Isabelortiz42", who also made the first edits. Here's their preferred version..

[43]

Just going through that..

First, the singer was best known as "Li'l Esther". Second, she NEVER "performed regularly at the Cotton Club". Third and Fourth, it matter-of-factly states that "Helen Kane appropriated her singing style", something that (obviously) has never been verified, just as it has never been verified that Helen Kane had ever even heard of Esther before the Fleischer trial. Fifth, "Jone's style went to become the inspiration for the voice of Betty Boop" So, Esther sang in a sexualized New York accent, did she? Sixth, Bolton claimed that Kane saw Esther perform in 1928. Yet the article says that Kane and Bolton saw it "together". Wrong again. Seventh, it is claimed that "Boop oop a doop" was "Jones' trademark". Well, show me ONE source that says that. Eighth, nobody ever claimed that Kane originated a "baby singing style". And such a style existed before Esther was even born, whenever that may have been.

Note how there's NO SOURCE for any of the above. There is however, ONE WP:RS in this article.. So, let's read on, as pretty much EVERYTHING up to this point has been both unsourced, and a blatant LIE, to boot..

Here's what the creator of the article stated..

• "Jazz studies scholar Robert O'Meally has referred to Jones as 'Betty Boop's black grandmother.'

However..here's what Robert O'Meally actually said..

From Page 290 of Uptown Conversation: The New Jazz Studies (2004):

• The climax of the case (a further Ellisonian twist) came when the court viewed archival film brought in by the defense - footage shot in the early days of sound, featuring yet another singer, this time a black cabaret artist billed as Baby Esther, who on film performed a song that contained the heavily debated phrase "boop-boop-a-doop". The Fleischers' lawyers further surprised the court with testimony from Baby Esther's manager, Lou Walton, claiming that Helen Kane and her manager had heard Baby Esther sing in a cabaret in 1928. The point of course was that even if the Fleischers' singer(s) had copied Kane to create Betty Boop, Kane herself, if the evidence could be believed56, was an imitation of black Baby Esther.57 In other words, Boop herself was an imitation of an imitation and had, as it were, a black grandmother in the background.58

and here are those notes..

• 56. Cabarga, The Fleischer Story makes clear that this evidence might very well have been cooked up by the Fleischers to discredit Kane, whom they later admitted to have been their model for Betty Boop.
• 57. See Klaus Strateman's Louis Armstrong on the Screen (Copenhagen:JazzMedia 1996), pp. 17-26.
• 58. One can only wonder if there was some sort of sideline deal with Mr Walton. Was Miss Esther paid for her presumed loss of revenue?

Well, that certainly is not what Isabelortiz42 claimed O'Meally said, is it? Yes, the ENTIRE article was a LIE, with its ONE RS turning out to be almost the complete opposite what the music historian REALLY said.

And despite both Beyondmyken and Ewulp taking a keen interest in this article, this O'Meally misquote/falsehood never bothered either of them. It took someone else to correctly quote O'Meally.

Next, an image of a girl KNOWN TO NOT BE "Baby Esther" was used for years on the article. Again, neither editor found fault with that.

And yet, someone tries to tidy up the article, and now that is "edit warring"? How exactly was someone that nobody knows when they were born, nobody would have even heard of them without this trial, and nobody knows whatever became of them...was an "international celebrity"? I started a discussion for this on the discussion page, yet both editors simply ignored it.

Of course, as stated on the discussion page as well, the article isn't even about the person/performer. It's about her part played in a trial between other people, and even then we get to...

Lastly, contrary to what is claimed, the judge's summary IS available to be read. I asked precisely WHERE in that summary Esther is mentioned, even in passing. The response? Report me here. That speaks volumes. (But not about Esther, who was never mentioned at all in the verdict.) 197.89.10.25 (talk) 07:11, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

I can acknowledge my consecutive edits were hastily enacted but I'm sure we all make mistakes on this website and in life itself, I've had similar mistakes befallen me and I've sought no further greviance in both cases. This decision I feel is one of hastiness and lack of intent to discuss, I haven't seen you partake in the discussion that later fell to the talk page, this seems to have been your first decision and it is to try and ban me, we haven't interacted up until now in that regard.

Sorry MyPreferredUsernameWasTaken but your violation of the 1RR discretionary sanctions at that page got the whole article locked to non-admins. Nothing personal, I just don't think it's fair we were all locked out of the article because of one (or two) editors actions. Thankfully it's all sorted now.

Three reverts in four hours before the page finally got a protection. Thanks to that protection they did not specifically violate 3RR, however, they were uncivil when I warned them on their talk page and refused their disruptive behaviour. They also ignored WP:NOTTABLOID on the page and continued their ownership. They wrote that I "outta know" the 3RR, forgetting the fact that they were blocked for edit warring.

Can someone please consider blocking 79.68.129.39 (or page protecting Midfield, County_Mayo)? As above, IP user continues to remove reliably referenced material with the same dubious rationale.

Bump. Could someone take a look at this please? Despite another revert, another user warning from a further editor, and opening another channel through which the anon could explain their rationale, the reverting/warring continues. I am conscious of forum shopping (and so will leave this thread here instead of opening another) but it is now clear that I probably should have brought this to WP:AIV rather than WP:ANEW.

The fact that he is born in Naissus, Moesia Superior, Roman Empire ( present-day Niš, Serbia) should be clearly displayed throughout the page, instead of its muddled portrayal.

Why would you change factual information which is being updated for clarity? Do you have some ulterior motive for historical negationism?

User:Randam has taken upon themselves to edit and revert all templates (150+) regarding Foreign relations of all nations that a template with relations to Turkey in Wikipedia. This is an ongoing battle for several years where editors continuously move Turkey to Europe rather than leave the nation within the Asian articles. Numerous reversions have been made and several consensus over the years have been conducted and it has been agreed upon to leave Turkey within Asia as the majority of it's territory is in that continent. We cannot continue to have disruptive editors take it upon themselves every so often to move Turkey into the European section while removing it entirely from the Asian section on the templates. Aquintero82, (talk), 4 January 2021, 11:24 (UTC)

Comment by the reported user: I reject the accusations because (1) there is no 3RR, (2) as can be seen in the example given by the user:Aquintero82 (Template:Foreign relations of Mexico) I stopped reverting after I noticed user:Aquintero82's message, (3) after seen his message, I took the initiative to start a discussion on his talk. Instead of engaging in dialogue, I receive this noticeboard message after 18 minutes. (4) I find it dishonest of the user to revert all 150 of my edits, without first discussing or notifying me. I suggest leaving this behind and start the dialogue on your talk about the content. Randam (talk) 19:52, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

This is a discussion that would not end with a mutual consensus. I've engaged in this discussion numerous times in my 10 years of editing with Wikipedia. It's always the same. You made edits without consulting any members and as you said, if not to be consistent, why not move the other countries that you mentioned over to their respective continents and not just focus on one country per personal bias. Aquintero82, (talk), 17:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

Adding to my message, this article falls under the 3 revert rule Template:Foreign relations of the Republic of the Congo. Aquintero82, (talk), 18:22, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

(1) That article is only reverted 2 times. (2) That was a singular attempt to grap your attention (see the description). Because you kept continuing reverting my edits while my message was left unanswered in your talk. (3) It was also a warning to you because you were reverting the whole text instead of only the part that bothers you. Why? (4) You claim that I didn't move other countries to their continents. I present to you case 1 and case 2 of the many cases where I put Russia also in Europe.

In conclusion: you secretly reverted all my 150 edits (no tagging), you falsely accuse me of not editing Russia in Europe, you leave my message on your talk unanswered, you instead go to this noticeboard to get rid of your 'problem' by getting me blocked. I try to assume good faith, so feel free to explain to me why this isn't misusing the noticeboard? Randam (talk) 05:25, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

You mention that I "secretly" reverted all 150 edits. I do not remember seeing any comments of the edits you were making when you reverted the articles as they originally were. In some, you said that you were "standardizing" the article. To which "standardization" are you referring to? Who mentioned anything about Russia? There is no record of me mentioning that to you or to anyone else. This is not to get you blocked, this is to bring to attention that personal bias has no place in Wikipedia or in its edits. Please refer to Wikipedia's pages on Europe and Asia as a reference. Aquintero82, (talk), 5 January 2021, 11:31(UTC)

• Result: Both editors warned. (This is a dispute as to whether Turkey is in Europe or Asia. It has been fought out in various foreign relations templates). Any further reverts of templates in Category:Foreign relations by country templates regarding *which* countries are in *which* continents are risking a block unless prior consensus is found on a talk page. As pointed out by User:Aquintero82, our current articles on Europe and Asia show an assignment of countries to continents which has survived on Wikipedia up till now. If there is no way for either of you to find the prior discussions, an WP:RFC might be considered. EdJohnston (talk) 20:55, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Comments:
Roy McCoy argues our articles should not be based on reliable sources. They dispute the Five Pillars and they're not here to build an encyclopedia. Feoffer (talk) 05:59, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

There's an interesting discussion at User talk:Roy McCoy#December 20 with User:Guy Macon where Roy says " Moreover, the actual fringe theory in regard to 9/11 is the official fantasy, which if I'm not in error only a minority of the population believes despite the relentless propaganda in its favor." At Talk:Cathy O'Brien (conspiracy theorist)#No consensus for Page move after failing to get "conspiracy theorist" removed we have "Speaking of sources, Wikipedia's are often duplicitous and unreliable, so one can keep regurgitating the RS policy till the cows come home, and it will still fall flat with anyone aware of the dubiousness of the WP-approved sources and of the frequent value and acceptable quality of the disapproved – for example the Gateway Pundit on the 2020 Election. The graphic at Investment Watch provides a picture of the ideologically motivated division of sources and "explains a lot of the bias". If the purpose of Wikipedia is to serve as a propaganda rag, the childish "conspiracy theorist!" finger-pointing/name-calling may make some sense. Otherwise I'd say that what the encyclopedia actually needs, Hob Gadling, is fewer tired reiterations of the policy of aping often-discreditable sources. I think it could use less of that even if propagandizing is the purpose, since the RS policy perhaps shouldn't be over-advertised given current public disillusionment with "the lying media" – a phrase today yielding over a million estimated Google finds." Doug Weller talk 08:32, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Feoffer, Doug Weller: I'm not sure there's a violation here, as I don't consider [84] to have been a revert. At least I started counting from what I considered to be the first revert, [85]. I have since seen and understood that the 3RR rule "is not an entitlement to revert a page a specific number of times", but honestly I feel that this is a case in which WP:IAR might rightfully be invoked in any event, as well as perhaps another guideline whose name I don't remember that says (or used to say) that a proper consensus doesn't necessarily require a majority. I've been drenched with this reliable sources, reliable sources recently, and my edit in this case is perfectly in accordance with the RS while Feoffer's totally isn't, as I've clearly established in detail. Thank you, Doug, for saying my posts were interesting. I think Feoffer means "nominative", and if I really must say so my preferred pronoun is "he". –Roy McCoy (talk) 20:00, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

Roy McCoy suggests the first of four edits does not qualify as a revert. That suggestion is without merit. On December 27, McCoy similarly removed "Conspiracy Theory", which was reverted by GorillaWarfare with the warning "discuss on talk page before making this change, per inline note". Anachronist then posted an even clearer warning to get consensus before making the change. Feoffer (talk) 00:11, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

I protest Feoffer's inappropriate reversion to "conspiracy theory". I will do as I said and bring a complaint against him and his collaborators. [Anachronist has changed to "campaign", resolving issue and obviating need for further action.] The irony is that "campaign" doesn't even approach an adequate correction of the sentence; but it will still be recognized as an obvious improvement by any sane, honest, and reasonably intelligent person with a basic command of the English language. "Campaign", again, is in complete accordance with the cited sources, as "conspiracy theory" is not, this having been demonstrated with references to all the cited sources. –Roy McCoy (talk) 04:10, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

The user has broken WP:3RR in a content dispute. They were warned by cIreland on their talk page but continued warring to the point that they violated 3RR. Herbfur (Eric, He/Him) (talk) 14:35, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

• Endorse report. I have made attempts to discuss the issue on the talk page, and requested that we both wait for further input before editing further. I would also like to draw attention to the fact that this user has violated the 3RR on other pages previously.Domeditrix (talk) 14:48, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
• Some of my edits were editing mistakes or trying to tidy up the page. Plus I have engaged on the talk page. Erzan (talk) 14:53, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

I'm not seeing any tidying up in the reverts listed, and even then, that's not an excuse for violating WP:3RR, per WP:3RRNO. Even if you were attempting to resolve the dispute, that isn't an excuse to continue reverting, unfortunately. Herbfur (Eric, He/Him) (talk) 14:56, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Is there a reason why other user's involved in the edit war are not being questioned or reported? Erzan (talk) 15:02, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

As far as I can see, none of those users have crossed WP:3RR or continued reverting without requesting and working on building consensus. Furthermore, two wrongs don't make a right. If those other users were edit warring it would be wrong, but that's still no excuse for you making 10 reverts in 24 hours. Herbfur (Eric, He/Him) (talk) 15:06, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

I would also like to raise the community's awareness of this user's long-term behavior of maneuvering the editing processes and policies, which has the effect of censoring and removing significant views and information [149] [150] [151] [152] [153], as opposed to WP:PRESERVE. Many more of such edits by them were done in the name of WP:SOCKSTRIKE, especially on geopolitics- and China-related topics. Normchou ^💬 03:19, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Consecutive edits count as a single edit for WP:3RR purposes (as you may already know, since you grouped them together?) That being the case, how is this a 3RR violation? --Aquillion (talk) 03:27, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi Admins, thanks for bringing this to your attention.

1) There are a series of edits from Normchou starting from 22:46 7 January 2021‎ which involve incorrect synthesis and arbitrary classification of vaccines into a group of less than 80% efficacy vaccines and above 90% efficacy vaccines. This classification is misleading because according to reliable sources, an efficacy of 50% is required for approval from WHO, FDA, and EMA while a 70% efficacy is suggested in other literature as necessary for effective herd immunity. Even if we were to follow Normchou's reasoning, it is unusual he omitted the Astra-Zeneca vaccine which is widely published and well known to have an efficacy of 70% from his list of vaccines under 80% efficacy. Also, there was no mention in his edits of BBV152 which is known to have been approved of before any efficacy results were announced. Although I cannot conclusively prove WP:NPOV violation, I do suggest the admins look into this given his previous edits at COVID-19 vaccines. Normchou has previously extensively contributed to COVID-19 vaccines and has edited the vaccine tables so he is presumed to know the efficacy of at least the well known vaccines (there are only 7 approved as of now).

2) Normchou has also been an active member of project COVID and has over 10 years tenure on wikipedia per his profile. He has been previously warned about [WP:MEDRS], as have I, so we both know what only secondary sources are reliable. He knows that you cannot put uncited sources of efficacy for vaccines, and also that primary sources (i.e. medical journals) cannot be used.

3) I can't comment on the nature of the 3RR warning because I do not believe I have reverted any unique edit more than once. For the same reason, I believe he is also at 1RR since nothing is his contributions is a repeat of my edits.

4) I believe the last edit I made truly represents the most accurate and objective analysis of vaccine efficacy which is useful to the reader. It also represents a significant improvement from a WP:NPOV compared to what was previously there from Normchou. Until the arbitration is complete, I suggest both Normchou and I refrain from further edits to COVID-19 vaccines.

5) I suggest the admins review the full series of both my edits and Normchou's starting from 22:46 7 January 2021, there were no intermediate edits from 3rd parties between the two of us that could obfuscate the full edit chain.

6) I am puzzled as to why Normchou decided to post 2 times to my personal talk page, one time to the admin noticeboard, and one time to COVID-19:talk page in a span of just 2 minutes. I presume that if he wanted to initiate an actual dialogue or consensus with me, he would have waited a few hours or even minutes for a response. Instead this seems like bullying/threatening behavior for which I am now forced to respond. I think there should be some WP:BOOMERANG that should apply.

7) I am uncertain how to respond given the following disclosure on his talk page. Since December 2020, he has been working on a project that utilizes BoW, POS tagging, sentiment, and GloVe and Word2vec embeddings to identify hard-to-detect abnormal connections among Wikipedia accounts. The project will help with WP:SPI and enforcement against WP:SOCK, especially in relation to accounts that evade WP:CHK (e.g., WP:SPA and WP:IP behind WP:PROXY). It is not clear to me from such disclosure if he is in fact an admin or another senior member with additional rights associated with the wikipedia foundation, and that additional consideration should be shown to his comments. If that is the case, please also let me know. I am especially unsure because Normchou does have significantly greater tenure and experience than myself, based on both the speed of his edits and the fact that he has been on wikipedia for 11 years. I also can't seem to link diffs effectively but that is more on me.

Thanks, Albertaont (talk) 03:29, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Re Albertaont's point 6): Their last revert, i.e. complete removal of this part of my contrib despite all the piecemeal improvements that had been made—which they were also a participant of—clearly shows they were NOT WP:AGF, and that's why I chose to report them directly. I have no comment regarding the rest of their statement. Normchou ^💬 03:52, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi Admins, as Aquillion pointed it out, I am not sure what the charge is, since its not a 3RR. If an admin or someone from WP:Project COVID could review our edits and provide guidance or wish me to explain any of my edits, I am glad to do so. Again, my edits to vaccine efficacy have not been challenged by other editors (I'm unsure if Normchou is even challenging the final edit). In the absense of that, I would still like to request clarifications on Since December 2020, he has been working on a project that utilizes BoW, POS tagging, sentiment, and GloVe and Word2vec embeddings to identify hard-to-detect abnormal connections among Wikipedia accounts. The project will help with WP:SPI and enforcement against WP:SOCK, especially in relation to accounts that evade WP:CHK (e.g., WP:SPA and WP:IP behind WP:PROXY). whether normchou is a member of an admin team or another member of the foundation given his 10 year tenure on wiki, and if additional disclosure is required. Thanks again and I look forward to closing this. Albertaont (talk) 16:46, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Comments:
Only a couple of examples shown above, the user has been editing the article and reverting, misrepresenting, and obscuring the slightest criticism by me or anyone else since 2014. Most reverts are done without giving a reason or explanation, when there is one it's often disguised as "reorganizing" and "minor edits" but in reality he deletes criticism alongside that. Citing "unreliable sources", but continued doing so even after the sources were provided without giving any legitmate reason. Also, citing that there isn't a neutral point of view but the criticism is completely factual. I believe the user has some conflict of interest with the article and the company, and is in some way associated with them, because his edits range back to 2008 and has been actively removing critcism since 2014. Blackbirdxd (talk) 14:39, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

• Declined. This report has no merit. Edits over a couple of weeks, the last of them 8 days ago, do not constitute edit warring, nor, in this case, disruptive editing. Let alone editing going back to 2014, as the OP suggests... Please read this page's instructions ("This page is for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule", my bolding) before offering a report here, Blackbirdxd. If you believe Barkeep "has some conflict of interest with the article and the company, and is in some way associated with them", you might try the Conflict of interest noticeboard. Although I doubt you'll get any traction there either if all you have is unproven aspersions. Bishonen | tålk 15:01, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

User has declined to engage in talk page discussion, instead apparently believes that his "WikiProject" has authority to override local article discussion, which is of course patent nonsense, and has decided to edit war in order to enforce this. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 18:26, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Stating for admins. On January 7 (1 days ago) a discussion on the topic began originally on the WikiProject of Current Events. After a post from me and an IP, it was moved to the talk page of the article. (See that here: Talk:2021 storming of the United States Capitol#Discussions on the first sentence.). After it was moved, other editors contributed to the discussion. At the moment, there is no consensus on that discussion. Earlier today, this discussion: Talk:2021 storming of the United States Capitol#Unacceptable removal of key facts from the first sentence which states in the opening statement. “Unrelated to the one above”. I do not understand how a discussion above that has a no consensus can be disregarded and in a matter minutes to hours just be deemed “I don’t care about the discussion above...this discussion is the only thing that matters”. I would be ok being warned for edit warring, but I would also like to have other editors warned that the discussion needs to include previous on-going discussions. Thanks. Elijahandskip (talk) 18:33, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

That thread you linked contains absolutely no discussion of the wording you are removing, much less any discussion which shows a consensus to remove that wording. The fact that other wording in the lede is under discussion does not give you license to remove anything from the lede that you apparently disagree with. To the contrary, this discussion shows clear and broad support for the wording that you are removing, and demonstrates a clear rejection of your proposed removal. Self-revert and this can be closed. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 18:36, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

I will not undo it again. If an admin decides that I am in the wrong, I will be ok with the discussion. I never purposely edit war, so please take that into consideration. (Maybe just a warning, no ban?) Elijahandskip (talk) 18:39, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

• On the discussion Northbysouthbaronof is referring to, I had a mistake. I didn’t fully understand what that thread was for. I have apologized on that thread and understand that my actions were wrong. The discussion are related but unrelated. (Kick the can down the road) is basically what has happened today). On the thread, there is a clear consensus that I did violate, so I was edit warring. I understand that I was and have made amends with the editors involved.

Comments: This user tries to create disinformation by making unrealized events appear as if they had happened and participates edit wars over it. Even though he is warning people to not edit war but actively fueling people to do. It is a personal interpretation to say that it will be used for the same purposes as earlier versions of the satellite were used for different purposes, I think personal comments written with xenophobic motivation should not be included in Wikipedia articles.

A user account created 27 minutes ago finds the Türksat 5A article, (believes to) know what edit warring is, installs twinkle and reports me at WP:AN3. They also happen to use the same language ("xenophobic", "disinformation") as the editor (User:Klevehagfd) I reported earlier on this noticeboard. Would requesting a WP:SPI be considered vexatious?

93.164.22.202 is inserting fake chart positions (most commonly that of Denmark) and information on the pages of Gary Barlow's songs and randomly removing sourced material without explanation. I am sure to fact-check everything before reverting and if they were actual, true, sourced positions I wouldn't have a problem with it but unfortunately they are not. They have already violated the 3-revert-rule on Music Played by Humans by reverting four times in 24 hours a few days ago so I sent them a warning and advised them to self-revert but they did not seem interested. I also suspect they operate on more than one IP and account based on the behavioral similarities between them. They also seem to have been reported for edit warring before.

Comments:
This user removed an entire section on Season of the Witch (song), claiming that it was not notable, then opened a section on the talk page stating so. They have not claimed any significant reasons as to its removal, just an opinion. I was notified that the image I uploaded for the cover version of this song was orphaned, and thus contributed at the discussion and made clear my disagreement, especially in the absence of any reason other than "its notability is quite small", so reverted. This editor then reverted me in two parts, and I reverted this, reminding them to "please follow WP:BRD", as I thought they weren't aware of the protocol considering they're a relatively new editor and may have missed this in my response, but was reverted again and had my reverts called "bad faith". I stopped, and made this report. The user is also editing in tandem with their IP address, 173.88.250.97, which they have declared is their IP address on their user talk page, but I have told them to not do this as it can be considered sockpuppetry. They have very clearly gone over WP:3RR, making more than five reverts if all their registered account and IP's reverts are taken into consideration. Ss112 08:57, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

My apologies if I'm not supposed to comment here. I couldn't find any articles regarding how to respond to reports and I did see users who had been reported in the past commented on their related report. I just wanted to mention that I feel at least two of these statements are demonstratively false; one, I have never claimed this cover was not notable. I also have claimed fact based reasons as to why I made the edits I did. I've already written quite a bit about this incident on my talk page, and on the article talk page,, and I do trust you, the admins, you review it all, so I'm not going to rehash it all here. I of course trust and respect your judgement, but I do feel I am being misrepresented strongly here and this editor has been very uncivil towards me, both in the article discussion and on my own talk page.ThereWillBeTime (talk) 12:59, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

Comments: Besides the personal attacks and unproductive attitude of Joefromrandb, he has gone over WP:3RR after a large removal of reliably sourced information in a WP:BOLD edit. I reverted this edit and Joefromrandb was urged to then follow the WP:BRD cycle, but was seemingly unwilling to take the matter to the talk page, so I eventually took it to the talk page myself. Per BRD, however, the original version should remain until after discussion. Joefromrandb was also unresponsive to the 3RR warning on his talk page, thinking I was trolling him. It does seem this user has a long history with civility and edit warring issues. Joefromrandb claimed WP:3RRNO due to supposed WP:BLP issues, however, the information is sourced by U.S. Department of Justice, The Philadelphia Inquirer, CBS, etc. that specifically state the persons' roles in the crime family. Therefore, WP:3RRNO states, "What counts as exempt under BLP can be controversial. Consider reporting to the BLP noticeboard instead of relying on this exemption." We go by reliable sources, not what you think is "garbage". This is not a crutch Joefromrandb should stand on to continue edit warring, or one that should replace the need for discussion as outlined in BRD. Vaselineeeeeeee^★★★ 16:53, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

I invite any admin to have a look at my edits, summaries, and talk page comments, as they speak for themselves. WP:BLP is not "a crutch" (yeah, he really did say that), but a black-letter non-negotiable mandate which must be followed by all editors, all the time.

• Followup: EdJohnston, it seems to have been overlooked that Jrfrb is under a 1R/page/day restriction [214]. In his spare time he's been repeatedly reinserting mixed-up stuff, accompanied by ponderously oblivious edit summaries, on one of our most-read articles at a most inopportune time [215][216][217][218]. Keeping a death grip on the wrong end of the stick is a longstanding habit with this editor [219] and I would suggest that a stern word is in order. EEng 00:58, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

  You know, I was all ready to respond to our self-appointed colourful jester EENG with a response equally, if not more colourful, but as strife begets strife, I'll simply say that the restriction of which EENG speaks is subject to the usual exemptions, and he knows this. His attempt at stirring the pot is noted; moving on. Joefromrandb (talk) 10:37, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

  I'm not involved in this dispute but I just want to say that Joefromrandb has been less than civil during this dispute. The text here and edit summaries both here and at the contested article are filled with personal attacks and instances of not assuming good faith, which can be seen above. I don't have any opinion on the edit warring, this is something for others to decide, but Joefromrandb shouldn't be continuing to make these personal attacks, there's no place for that on Wikipedia.

User has been reverting every edit to the page since November 13, 2020. Their edit summaries are mostly either "Restored" or something that can be said on a talk page. They clearly have a WP:OWN problem (If you create or edit an article, others can make changes, and you cannot prevent them from doing so. In addition, you should not undo their edits without good reason. Disagreements should be calmly resolved, starting with a discussion on the article talk page). If I were to restore the version from November 2020 (three months ago), there wouldn’t be much of a difference. They revert everything, I’m not being dramatic. Look at the page history. Furthermore, they are suspected (but not assumed) to be gaming the system by reverting 4 times in 26 hours, as shown in the diffs above. D🐶ggy54321 ^{(let's chat!)} 01:18, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Please pay attention to the sourcing requirements of our WP:BLP policy when discussing whether 'conspiracy theorist' should remain in the article. EdJohnston (talk) 04:59, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Note: I have not made any reverts on that page. I have placed the warning though. They claim that it was exempt from 3RR because it was vandalism, which I do not believe it is so. Note: For the 3rr warning, I forgot to subst, but in the next edit, I fixed it. Also, they have deleted the warning One more thing: This is my first time at anew, so I have edited this many times. Sorry! ThatIPEditor (talk) 05:28, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I have escalated to several different noticeboards the usernames undoing my meticulously made and good faith edits to reliable sources in line with making the articles fit NPOV via multiple usernames (there is coordinated activity here on a contentious subject matter), who also will not subject any of the changes to debate. I have requested the page be fully protected and reviewed. The original content of Press TV had multiple inaccuries, NPOV issues, and spelling/grammatical errors of an egregious nature. I re-organized the article, I made it more neutral reflecting both pros and cons of the subject matter, I did not erase anything that came from a reliable source, and I performed everything in good faith. I am new here as well and think I am being ambushed by political actors who have a need to see that these articles malign or promote the subject matter. On Maryam Rajavi, several times, they undid my good faith revisions with attributions to very reputable and reliable sources. Further, they appear to be scrubbing the articles of anything that is contrary to their viewpoints rather than being neutral and reflecting both sides like I am. Again, I have asked for debate, discussions, as have others, and they just undo the edits instead. DeweyDecimalLansky (talk) 05:33, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Simon T8W is repeatedly removing sourced contents and edit warring with multiple users. Looking at the history of Kingsley Fletcher they are doing this since October 2017‎ and possibly abusing IP addresses. GSS ^💬 04:32, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

• Blocked – 48 hours. Simon T8W is engaged in a long term struggle to keep out a report that Fletcher received a knighthood from a bogus version of the Knights of Malta. Opinions may differ on whether this report is important enough to include, but a source exists. The normal BLP rules apply, but the matter can't be settled by edit warring.

The user has ignored warnings to revert multiple editors to change an infobox that was created by consensus from a previous talk page discussion. They also signed a warning with my signature. — MarkH₂₁^talk 14:40, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
