User keeps changing IP address to get around block. Edit warring has been going on constantly - user refuses to reach resolution. Greeis6 (talk) 17:07, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
Page protected Semi-protection applied for 72 hours. Not sure entirely what's up, but edit summaries show me it isn't collegial editing. —C.Fred (talk) 18:10, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
- I'll tell you what's up.
- The highly authoritative references 2, 3 and 4 in the lead-in of this version of the San Fernando Valley article testify that the shortened colloquial name of the San Fernando Valley is the Valley. Greeis6 deletes references 3 and 4 and claims that the name should be written as The Valley, but fails to provide any authoritative source.
- Greeis6 insists (diff) that "Calabasas is classified with SMM - not SFV." But this authoritative source (the U.S. Department of the Interior, 1980) explicitly states that "Calabasas is not included within the boundaries of the Santa Monica Mountains NRA."
- Finally, on the Talk page, Greeis6 deleted my perfectly legitimate edit: diff.
- So, if you care about Wikipedia's trustworthiness, permablock Greeis6 (he has a long history of edit warring--see his Talk page). And revert the article from the current erroneous version (the two errors are "The Valley" and "Calabasas is not part of the SFF") to my last version. —178.71.197.203 (talk) 18:43, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

Ignoring the talk page discussion to settle the dispute
Comments:
This IP 78.82.178.37 has been persistently edit warring to push the same view, reverting the work of other users and deleting sources. This user was warned twice in his talk page. As seen in the revisions, the person behind these IP is altering sourced information to non-constructive POV push. This user continues ignoring the talk page discussion and accuses every source he doesn't like as being "biased kuwaiti". He deletes all the sourced information about their father's Iranian origin. In addition to persistent edit warring, 78.82.178.37's actions violate the following policies: WP:Ownership, WP:Civil, WP:RELIABILITY WP:NPOV, and WP:NPA. Many of his contributions do not follow the standard format outlined in Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Biography. At this stage, 78.82.178.37 should be held accountable. This IP is seemingly under the impression he owns this article. I'm not the only Wikipedia user who has noticed this IP's non-constructive behaviour in the article Saleh and Daoud Al-Kuwaity. Earlier this week, Such-change47 reverted this IP's nonconstructive edits. Similarly last month, GorgeCustersSabre reverted this IP's non-constructive edits. --Dilmunite (talk) 13:47, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

We had long discussions at Talk:African Americans, Talk:African Americans (ethnicity), and WP:Articles_for_deletion/African_Americans_(ethnicity), in the course of which they attacked me personally, the worst attack being this one ("Ethnocide ... is precisely what you are doing"). Rsk6400 (talk) 07:23, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
Comments:
I have attempted to resolve disputes and have conversation with the individual Rsk6400, he has ignored and failed to address any of the points I have raised on multiple occasions as can be see in the talk pages for African Americans as well as African Americans (ethnicity). I've never had a long discussion with this person. He has reverted edits I have made repeatedly, followed me to other pages and reverted edits I have made there, and has not made any attempts to resolve the issues raised in maintenance templates that the user added to African Americans (ethnicity). The user has made several assertions that the ethnicity which I belong to does not exist. That is the definition of ethnocide, which he has falsely taken as an insult.--Taharka155 (talk) 07:32, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
At my talk page, we had this conversation in which they equated opposition to their personal definition of the term African American with the Holocaust. --Rsk6400 (talk) 20:51, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

This IP is edit warring across multiple pages, could be a banned user. Made multiple reverts on other articles too. For example, he made 3 rvs on Harry Sassounian: [38] [39] [40], misquoting the source, despite other users telling him that the source does not support his claim. In general, most of this IP contributions are edit warring on Azerbaijan-Armenia related articles, which is area covered by arbitration ruling. He was warned about that too: [41] Grandmaster 23:07, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
- ”Could be a banned user” - I’ll just let that sit here. Isnt the number one rule to assume good faith? I ask the administrators to review Grandmaster’s record of edit warring and POV pushing on Talk:Shusha and Talk:Stepanakert and Talk:Lachin. That is edit warring, along with ganging up on other users.—217.149.166.11 (talk) 03:36, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- Let us also not forget that you have tried to downplay Azerbaijani-backed sources as neutral. That in itself deserves a mention at another noticeboard, but I wont do it because we already have one open - something that you do not seem to realize--217.149.166.11 (talk) 04:44, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- As someone who commented in the last discussion regarding IP, I must admit this is getting ridiculous. First, ANI discussion was opened with ban calls accompanied by insufficient diffs, despite IP communicating with every editor and opening discussions [42]. Now, edit-warring report is being opened even tho IP isn't even aware of WP:EW or WP:3RR? There isn't even a single edit-warring notice in their talk page. Without diving into content details which isn't relevant here and is actually being discussed in the talk page (which was initiated by IP), I would like to only point out that we don't shop with reports, especially when relevant warnings weren't even given. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 23:41, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
- The IP was given sufficient warning about edit warring with all the necessary links. [43] He was also warned about arbitration ruling. Yet he chose to continue the same behavior on many pages. Grandmaster 23:52, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
- Are you joking? The Robert McClellon thing was in response to a turkish vandalist (Enverpasatr, named after Enver Pasha), to which the user who removed my edit then responded by blocking the vandal --> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive1087#EnverPasaTr. That is all resolved. Again, you are looking for artificial evidence while accusing me of something you can not support factually--217.149.166.11 (talk) 04:34, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

How about keeping the discussiom to one noticeboard or one place? you should know better than to start WP:FORUMSHOPING all over the place. It's funny that you edit warred until he made one more revert than you to report The IP. - Kevo327 (talk) 00:17, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
Blocked – 48 hours for 3RR violation at Armenian–Tatar massacres of 1905–1907. I think that some semiprotections of WP:AA2 articles might be considered if problems continue. The edits of User:Enverpasatr certainly deserve no credence. But the continuing problem is an IP making lots of reverts in AA2, an area covered by discretionary sanctions. The IP continues to edit aggressively since their arrival on Wikipedia on December 16th. EdJohnston (talk) 06:01, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

I accepted the citation tag removal but he keeps removing my other edits claiming WP violation, though I read those notices but it looks like to me my edits were reasonable, maybe I am wrong because I don't quite understand those stuff well enough quite yet. As for edit warring, he's the one who initiated it, and I suspect he used other IDs to remove my edits to avoid 3 revert rule. With this I rest my case. I'm not going to edit that page again until an admin investigates this issue. (Ishan87)

Users edits have been challenged on not just the mentioned page but numerous other pages too, and rather than get consensus for the changes they just keep reverting back to their version with minimal discussion. They have not yet violated the 3RR, but that is because I stopped reverting because I reached 3 reverts reverting back to the stable version. Editor is currently continuing to edit war.

- This is incorrect. The third one is not a revert. User clearly doesn't know how to write an article, and keeps adding unsourced information and accuses me of "vandalizing" and being "unsourced". I told them to stop edit warring and talk, but they keep ignoring the page and edit summaries and continue to write incorrect and irrational "reasons". I didn't threaten them "with a permanent ban for daring to revert [my] unjustified edits". That's a lie. ภץאคгöร 18:52, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- First of all, I didn’t write the article, so to say I have no idea how to write one is irrelevant. You can’t cite a single instance of me ignoring edit summaries, and you’re accusing me of edit warring when your edit is the disruptive one. You then call me irrational on my own talk page to cite which reviews don’t mention Tom Holland as a standout performance. You just admitted to ignoring edit summaries because they’re “irrational” and illegitimate reasons, yet I’m the misbehaving one? And as for calling for a permanent ban? That’s this edit. I should also note that they removed their ANEW message from their talk page--CreecregofLife (talk) 18:59, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- None of what you wrote makes any sense to me. Even the link you provided just leads to your talk page.

- CreecregofLife, your first revert was without an edit summary. You can't expect someone to cite multiple reviews in an edit summary.
You removed it with a baseless claim that the reviews don’t back up what the caption says. You didn’t cite any of the reviews, you just said “the reviews”
, the claim is based on the reviews cited in the article, and if you reverted without an edit summary you're not trying to engage in a discussion, and your reversion are likely to be taken as disruptive.If you want it discussed so much, you go to the talk page
is needlessly combative, and seems you don't want to engage in a discussion, which is contrary to how Wikipedia works. Nyxaros is correct that in fact only one of the reviews considers Holland "a standout", sayingHolland remains the best of the cinematic Spider-Men
. The rest praise Holland but in the same terms as the rest of the cast, not highlighting him particularly. Then you just saidPlease stop vandalizing the page
, not answering to his arguments and dismissing them as without substance, when all needed was in the article for you to read. —El Millo (talk) 19:39, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- On the other hand, this talk page comment by Nyxaros (
Though some of the info is unsourced. User:CreecregofLife wants to keep the unsourced info by edit warring, ignoring the page and the edit summaries, and writing nonsensical reasons and accusations
) is also needlessly combative and just unloading on a barely-related thread. —El Millo (talk) 19:44, 25 December 2021 (UTC)- I’m sorry, but based on the information initially given, I didn’t think I needed an edit summary on the first reversion. I didn’t think it would escalate. If I had known I would’ve put the edit summary right away. All I was looking for was for Nyx to identify the publications that didn’t mention Holland as a standout, and Nyx never did. I wanted to discuss it, but then Nyx started with the personal attacks, and I didn’t have to take them. Every time I run into something, I’m the one who’s told that the onus is on me to go to the talk page, never the other person, even though the other person is in the same conflict and supposed to be following the same rules. Because of that, I encouraged Nyx to start the talk page discussion on the subject’s talk page, and I would have followed them there. To say I wouldn’t have been interested in discussion is highly presumptive. It was an invitation to talk about it on the appropriate grounds. Just because something seems some way doesn’t mean it is that way. That’s all.--CreecregofLife (talk) 20:02, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- Result: User:Nyxaros and User:CreecregofLife are both warned. Either of you may be blocked if you revert the article again before getting a consensus in your favor on the article talk page. The phrase 'needlessly combative' seems to apply to both of you. EdJohnston (talk) 20:07, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- I am clearly describing what the editor has done. If you look at his edit summaries and accusations ("vandalizing", "disruptive editing", etc.) against me for removing unsourced info, you will see that he was edit warring, ignoring the page and messages, and throwing baseless accusations. This has nothing to do with being "needlessly combative", Facu-el Millo. I can't believe any editor would ignore this user's actions just like he ignores the article he is editing. Apparently it's acceptable to insist on keeping unsourced info on the page and attacking those who remove them. ภץאคгöร 11:22, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#DeCausa. Thank you. [diff]
Comments: I have read many books on the subject. Since I know Ottoman Turkish, I also read the 20th-century newspaper reports of Ali Kemal. But I couldn't convince ZaniGiovanni and DeCausa not to delete my edit. Since it is an open-source network, I tried to explain my sources to them on the talk page. But he and DeCausa just kept deleting my edits without showing any source. I told them again and again, my sources include Ali Kemal's own posts from the newspaper but they insisted on deleting my edits. After many reverts and long explanations I decided to report the case since it was obvious they were not trying to discuss, they were doing an edit war. The page of Ali Kemal was very pale and uninformative. Because I have read many books and did many researches on the subject, I edited the page with long and detailed sources. User 'ZaniGiovanni' also said that he doesn't count Turkish sources as reliable, which sounds very racist to me. I guess we should convince him first before putting any war reports from the Turkish Ministry of War History(!) I think it damages the open-sourcenes of Wikipedia to delete my edit which is a result of months of reading, in a few seconds. I am pretty sure they don't speak Turkish but they are so persistent of deleting my edit by just saying 'your sources are not reliable because they are Turkish'. As a Turkish person I honestly feel like we are being attacked on the internet, on Wikipedia specifically. They are editing the page of the Turkish War of Independence and trying to label it as genocide. Every page that includes Turks and other nations is being excessively edited. User ZaniGiovanni is an Armenian person and I respect that but it is clear that's why he keeps deleting my edits about Ali Kemal. Anyways, I don't want to make this report too long. I know not everyone is hysterically racist. Thank you for your help. Hsynylmztr (talk) 23:31, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
- First of all, the WP:ONUS is on you to achieve consensus for including disputed content, and secondly, no guidelines were broken by me or DeCausa in Ali Kemal article. You've been explained both by me and 3rd party editor why your edit is WP:UNDUE and is essentially a jingoistic WP:ADVOCACY, please read the talk discussion and comment. Also, "I have read many books / I read Turkish" isn't an argument. This whole report overall seems very WP:BATTLEGROUND motivated. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 23:49, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
We don't need fancy words. Just explain how did you decide these sources are unreliable if you do not speak Turkish. I did not say I am right because I speak Turkish, I said I can actually read sources about Ali Kemal because I speak Turkish. Even his own newspapers are not of a source enough for you? Hsynylmztr (talk) 01:06, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- I did actually explain it to you in talk, and it isn't just reliability. You seem to ignore the guidelines that I show you or don't read them. And this isn't a talk page discussion btw, you filed an inadequate report and now came here to discuss content? ZaniGiovanni (talk) 01:09, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
I know it is not the place for discussion. I was waiting for an admin to respond, why did you reply to me here? It is not an discussion page. And you didn't explain anything toa anyone. You just deleted my entire edit by saying 'Turkish sources are not reliable'. How come Ali Kemal's own newspaper reports are not a reliable source ??? Is there any other source that is more reliable than his own words? Please stop editing my report. I am sure admins will read both of our edits in the talk section. You deleted all the books because they are Turkish. Hsynylmztr (talk) 01:15, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: Hsynylmztr opened this AN3 thread on their 24th edit. There’s clearly a longer history behind this account. Since May, Hsynylmztr has been attempting to slow edit-war this change into the article despite beng reverted by 4 different editors. Since 22 December they have reverted x3 compared to ZaniGiovanni’s 2 reverts (or my 2 reverts). So unclear the basis of their complaint. DeCausa (talk) 11:25, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- Result: The filer, User:Hsynylmztr is warned. They may be blocked if they revert the article again without getting a prior consensus for their change on the article talk page. EdJohnston (talk) 16:34, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
I provided sources but they didn't. I know you admins are not academicians so I am not trying to tell you about reliability of my sources.

This IP has just returned from 48 hrs block, and immediately started new edit wars across multiple pages. For example, removal of Azerbaijani name for a region located in Azerbaijan: [82] Revert warring on Agdam: [83] [84] Just to note that according to 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh ceasefire agreement Republic of Armenia agreed to withdraw its army from Agdam, so claiming that it was occupied only by Karabakh Armenian forces is false. In general, I don't see that this anonymous editor has made any constructive contributions to Wikipedia so far. He sparked at least 3 serious edit wars on Armenian–Tatar massacres of 1905–1907, Harry Sassounian and Agdam. Community attention is required. Grandmaster 15:18, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
Blocked 2 months. My comment from the last AN3 still applies: "...the continuing problem is an IP making lots of reverts in AA2, an area covered by discretionary sanctions. The IP continues to edit aggressively since their arrival on Wikipedia on December 16th." If this were a registered account, we would already be considering a topic ban from WP:AA2. In my opinion topic bans of IPs aren't really useful, so the only way to prevent further disruption is a block. EdJohnston (talk) 16:29, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

Comments:
There was a consensus formed on the Italian-language desk link on wording of garesa; the consensus-formed wording was implemented by Lambian (link). User Dabaqabad seems to have an aversion to endonymic term garesa in Caroselli source. He says alternative name is "undue". WP policy debunks this as WP:OTHERNAMES says "significant alternative names for the topic should be mentioned in the article, usually in the first sentence or paragraph", and the Caroselli sourced text is an extract of a high-level government letter (Dervish-to-Italian). It should be noted Dabaqabad is currently under special editing restrictions, which read "you are to always follow a revert with an article talk page comment explaining it in any and all WP:ARBHORN topic area pages or edits (whatsoever)", and in October a 6 month topic ban on Dabaqabad, partially for removing reliable sources went stale.

User has been trying to edit-war in a calligraphic lead image (first File:Bilal_RA_arabic.png, later the near-identical File:بلال بن رباح.png) instead of the long-standing pictorial lead image (File:Bilal.jpg), citing concerns over images of Islamic figures being offensive to Muslims. Does not engage with argument at talk page but instead waits a bit and then changes lead image again. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 02:07, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
Okay, I would like to know the opinions of the Admins about this issue too. I did engage with him in conversations in talk pages about this, so I don't understand why he's balantly lying here! I kept both of the images in the article. I accepted his arguments and worked a way around it to include my edits too but it seems to me he still doesn't like it, so I want admins to solve it 4 us too. Thank you. This is Ishan87

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: 1) invited Brandmeister to participate in talk page discussion with no response, 2) invited Grandmaster to stay on topic and not remove disclosure of conflict of interest as “irrelevant”
Diff of ANEW notice posted to user's talk page: notice to Grandmaster, notice to Brandmeister,
Comments: Grandmaster and Brandmeister did a total of 5 reverts to Armenian–Tatar massacres of 1905–1907 in 48 hours, removing the fact that Polish-American historian Tadeusz Swietochowski, who reports that number of destroyed Tatar villages was much greater than Armenian villages is an honorary doctor at Azerbaijan's Khazar and Baku State Universities, with arguments that those ties to Azerbaijani universities are "irrelevant", that there is "no need to cite his whole biography", etc. The combined reverting was accompanied by reporting by Grandmaster of IP user 217.149.166.11 resulting in block for 3RR violation yet the Grandmaster and Brandmeister themselves hoped to avoid the same fate by being careful enough not to cross the 3-revert-in-24 hours threshold, although what they did together I believe constitutes WP:EDITWARRING nonetheless. Assuming WP:AGF, I nonetheless cannot help noticing elements of WP:GAMING (as the less experienced IP user was baited into crossing the threshold and hence eliminated as an opponent) and WP:GRAVEDANCE (as Brandmeister's last revert was justified as "rv blocked IP"). Brandmeister simply ignored my invitation to talk and discuss at all. Grandmaster ignored my pledge of leaving the sentence he contests alone while discussion is ongoing to reach consensus or RFC or another constructive solution, apparently thinking that keeping reverting is a more constructive method even though 4 users on talk page disagreed with him. --Armatura (talk) 22:41, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
- Per WP:EDITWAR,
reverting edits of banned or blocked users is not edit warring
. But there's more to it. The assertion that this is "the less experienced IP user" sounds fishy - the IP's early edit summaries already show a certain knowledge of Wikipedia, e.g. "clean up becuase of many double spaces" or "efn tag is better i think". So I find it odd that an established user who has been editing since 2007 suddenly starts to defend such IP behavior and even accuse others. Brandmeistertalk 23:14, 26 December 2021 (UTC)- Yay! here we go with the "socking" suspicions again, you are the third after Grandmaster and Beshogur. But please, continue, you are only incriminating yourself and your edit warring behavior. Plus, your name and Grandmasters sound very similar - concidence?--217.149.166.11 (talk) 09:10, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

As one can see from the report above, the IP is question caused serious disruption across multiple Armenia-Azerbaijan related articles, which are covered by arbitration ruling. This was acknowledged by enforcing admin. On the article in question alone, the IP made a total of 4 rvs, which resulted in his block. When the IP got blocked, Armatura tried to restore his edit of highly POV character, [95] despite obvious disagreement by other users. I don't find reverting without consensus to be an appropriate behavior by Armatura in this situation. Regarding the edit in question,Tadeusz Swietochowski is the most prominent Western expert on the history of Azerbaijan. His 2 books on the topic were published by prestigious publishing houses, Cambridge University Press and Columbia University Press, and received positive reviews from other scholars. To my knowledge, no reliable source ever accused him of any bias. What the IP and Armatura do is they slap inappropriate [better source needed] tag, and include in the article about 1905 ethnic clashes information about Swietochowski's honorary titles, which have no relation to the topic of the article. Armatura explains that inclusion of these titles serves the purpose of demonstrating alleged bias of Swietochowski, i.e. he himself admits to engaging in WP:OR, and tendentious editing, trying to undermine reputation of a well-respected scholar by inclusion of irrelevant information. If we are to introduce the scholar, the more important info about him would be him being a university professor and fellow of important think-tanks, but I see no reason to overload the article about historical event by info about this scholar. I advised to take their concerns about Swietochowski to WP:RSN, but he chose to take the issue here. Therefore I find this report here to be an attempt to use this board to resolve the content dispute. As for the IP, I also have a reason to believe that he is someone who knows his way around Wikipedia too well for a complete newcomer. Grandmaster 10:33, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
- This report is about you and Brandmeister, not me. do not project blame unto others please. I also copy many other editors when they give reasons for reverting, i.e. WP BANREVERT and such. I have read the manuals. So saying that I am a "socker" for the tenth time is not going to bring you anywhere. Also asking admins to review Grandmasters edit warring on Shusha, Stepanakert, and Lachin articles and talk pages.--217.149.166.11 (talk) 10:55, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
- Those reverts are justified. I have the same concern as well. This "extra information" does not contribute anything to the article itself. Beshogur (talk) 13:20, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
- I have serious doubts that a brand new user with only a handful of edits would know how to insert [better source needed] tag. And continuation of edit warring by this IP who just returned from 48 hrs block requires attention. For example, removal of Azerbaijani name for a region located in Azerbaijan: [96] Revert warring on Agdam: [97] [98] Grandmaster 14:25, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
- Things like these need attention [99]. For a week, no one objected and contributed to the conversation and Grandmaster marches in and reverts as usual. WP CASTING ASPERSIONS and HARRASSMENT (yes, i did totally learn these because i am a dirty sock and not because i looked at the wikipedia rules) from Grandmaster as well as continued edit warring.--217.149.166.11 (talk) 15:04, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

- Introducing your version of the lead to which at least 3 different editors objected, failing to reach consensus, calling other editors "renowned irredentist" is not how WP:CONSENSUS works. The evidence is here: [100] Grandmaster 15:29, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
The IP that started this edit war has now been blocked for 2 months. Please see the report below. Grandmaster 17:57, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
- Anybody can see from the diffs I provided that it is you who started the edit war, Grandmaster, have a look yourself. I am sorry not to see even a drop of reflection and self-criticism in your and Brandmeister’s replies. Instead of focusing on your perceived content-rightness and the banned user’s technique-wrongness, you better focus on how you changed a sentence to what you want it to look like, in collaboration with Brandmeister, 5 times in 48 hours, despite my plea to avoid edit warring on your side. You could ask to protect the article if you were that worried. But your edit war behaviour was no better than the IP’s, I’m sorry to say.--Armatura (talk) 23:24, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
- So in your opinion edit warring across multiple articles, POV pushing, incivility and threats of harassment by the IP are "technique-wrongness"? And others are to blame for IP's behavior? I beg to differ. Grandmaster 15:18, 28 December 2021 (UTC)

There's a dispute involving the editor named in this complaint, Bovineboy2008 and I regarding whether it's appropriate to mention The Black List (survey) at the article in question. Unfortunately, TSM has taken it upon themselves to edit-war to push their POV that the list should not be mentioned in the article rather than waiting for a clear consensus to emerge or pursing other forms of dispute resolution, as I encouraged them to do[110].

First of all I am sorry about not strictly following the format. I am not a regular editor of wikipedia, so I do not understand . I spent at least an hour trying to do so. I failed.
Thus here in plain "html".
There seems to be a difference in opinion about what to write in the Section "Representation" of the article if one country has no more representatives. The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:2022_PDC_World_Darts_Championship">talk page</a> of the article describes this very well. The mentioned user is repeatedly editing the page to use N/A instead of 0 or None. He never answered on the talk page. His only comment was: "14:07, 22 December 2021 L1amw90 →Representation: Leave the 0 as n/a as it looks better"
I think that wikipedia is striving for accuracy, correctness and making sense. In this context N/A does not make any sense at all. I do not want to judge whether N/A looks better than 0, because I think a knowledge database is not like a Miss Universe beauty contest (sorry for this satirical but nevertheless true comment).
I will now try to automatically notify the user, but I may fail to do so. If so, this is not intentional, but the result of me not being able to understand how to edit Wikipedia pages.

Why is the status quo being ignored? Why is it no matter whether I’m the changer or the maintainer, I always have to be the one to bring it to the talk page?

- Talk about "that escalated quickly"! I reverted your edit at my talk page because there was no need to keep it: I read it and know what the issue is, I literally just cleared my talk page with an end of year archive, WP:DTR, and because the warning applies as much to you as it does to me which I noted in my edit summary. I haven't started a discussion at the talk page / responded to your message yet because I am still working through my watchlist (from oldest to most recent) post-holidays and was going to circle back to this issue when I was done. You've really jumped the gun here, reporting me less than two hours after you started the talk page discussion which is not at all a reasonable amount of time to wait before deciding that someone is ignoring you / trying to "avoid accountability". Starting an edit war to try remove "source needed" tags from an article when the information is literally unsourced and then reporting the other editor to WP:AN/EW within a few hours is very much not assuming WP:GOODFAITH. I am happy to pretend this didn't happen and continue the talk page discussion in a reasonable time if you are. - adamstom97 (talk) 05:18, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
- I did assume good faith. Good faith was lost when you decided to steamroll and force the less-tenured user to defend the status quo when that’s not procedure. You needed to propose your change on the talk page and not force it through. The expiration is not time-based, it is action-based--CreecregofLife (talk) 05:21, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
- Trying to get people blocked because they didn't respond to you immediately is not how Wikipedia works. The discussion that you started has now continued (in a completely reasonable amount of time) with multiple editors joining in and if you are willing to help we may be able to sort all of this out pretty quickly. Please do so and stop trying to turn this into something it isn't. "avoid accountability", "ignore already-presented objections", "egregious abuses", etc. is all a bit much for a minor disagreement. - adamstom97 (talk) 05:48, 28 December 2021 (UTC)

- I never said there was a "waiting period for reporting violations", what I am trying to get across is if you had waited a little longer you would have realised that there was nothing for you to report. We are now having the standard talk page discussion that is getting it all sorted out, so you could have saved us the trouble of the whole reporting thing by having a little patience. You should really only be coming to AN/EW and taking up the time of admins if there is an actual problem, and I am suggesting that you would have realised there is no problem of that level here if you had just waited a little longer before going for the nuclear option. - adamstom97 (talk) 07:33, 28 December 2021 (UTC)

{{This editor has been repeatedly editing their preferred version of the article regardless of opinions of all other editors who disagree with him/her; this is classic edit warring, as Wikipedia says, "regardless of whether those edits are justifiable." All editors involved in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Doctor_of_Osteopathic_Medicine's talk page's "Lead" section has worked around to argue back and forth with this editor, but the editor, who started that discussion, has persisted in pushing his/her personal opinion on how the article should read and undermined the other 2 editors involved in the discussion. The editor also admonished other views, e.g. "using US as an adjective is clumsy." This editor stopped participating in active discussion and has since then cancelling edits from other editors.

This user changed the last stable version of the page yesterday without any kind of source Here today, I have inserted the previous data and I've inserted the citation needed tag. Then this user threw up a random source in Greek that it doesn't say anything related to his claims, so I have tried to talk with him in the talk page here and then I've inserted the official Hellenic National Meteorological Service official Climate Atlas of Greece here backing up the previous WP:STABLE version of the page as well.
Turns out this user, which has a background of edit wars, simply didn't care and started an edit war to revert everything I write without even engaging in the talk page before reverting first, at 11:27 UTC he wrote "see the talk page" while he didn't write anything in the talk page until 11:42 in the meantime I've warned him in his personal talk page and I've also done a ping on him but he just wants to impose his own WP:POV and I've warned him 4 times, one in the edit diffs, recommending to solve this and he didn't try anything but just kept reverting, another one in the own page's talk page and twice in his own talk page (where he fastly deleted both of my warnings) I don't know how to act with this user after I recommended him to talk, to respect WP:CYCLE and to be more Encyclopedical instead of just trying to impose WP:NPOV but it seems like I'm talking to a wall because this user doesn't care about any warning and he doesn't even take recommendations of any advice I've gave him in his own talk page or in that page's talk page.
Also, this is not exactly a content dispute, as shown above, he firstly changed that temperature claim without any kind of source. When I did insert an official source, he came with a random source (that's in Greek and doesn't back up the claims he write to) I have tried to explain in the article's talk page even if we took that source as useful, that data can't even be reached without getting too specifical, abd 6-7 years of unofficial data are not climate normals whilst Rhodes does have long term official data and I've inserted the official HNMS Climate Atlas which he deliberately ignores and says "it's not valid, it's extrapolated" (albeit being the only Greek official data) just to put his own sources again where it doesn't back up anything he claims. I have engaged in the talk page in a friendly tone trying to make him make constructive edits, he reverted, I've inserted an official source that's backing up the previous stable version, he reverted again, I've warned him in his talk page, yet he reverted again. I don't know what else to do, I even said "please stop because you're on the edge of an edit war and you're at just 1 edit to break the WP:3RR, expose your arguments on the talk page" yet he lasted 2 minutes to revert again thus breaking 3 reverts in the Climate of Greece page. --TechnicianGB (talk) 12:34, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- Hello, this is a clear content dispute with the editor escalating in order to impose their own POV disregarding any arguments and turning the whole thing into an edit war. The official source is given as per the Lindos article. It is in the interest of the average reader to have the official data from the National Observatory of Athens for Lindos since the area presents a considerable difference from the long term official data shown for Rhodes. This has already been discussed with the editor during the summer of 2021 in the Lindos article.Weatherextremes (talk) 12:42, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- How I'm exactly trying to impose my own POV when you've made a change without any kind of source [Here, yesterday] and then you've just searched for a random source trying to make a point even if your source doesn't even back up your claims?
- You have also ignored the official Hellenic National Meteorological Service source [inserted exactly here] to repeat your own claims on the official source (this is your personal opinion and content dispute over an official source) yet you just repeat that the official data is not valid according to yourself and just the source you've presented is valid (based on WP:NPOV) even if your source doesn't even show up the data you claim. You've also broken the 3RR rule. --TechnicianGB (talk) 12:55, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- The HNMS source from the climate atlas is in the article as you will see. What you fail to understand is that I have added on top of that the official source from N.O.A's meteo search database as per the Lindos article to further articulate the huge difference from the rest of the island which admittedly is Greece's warmest area from the official NOA data. Granted, we are talking about a smaller period and this is why you will notice on my last edit on the article I have accurately described the chronological period this refers to. Weatherextremes (talk) 13:03, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Weatherextremes: The HNMS station of Rhodes shows an annual mean of 18.9ºC so it's not anything "extrapolated" proof: https://web.archive.org/web/20170325112626/http://www.hnms.gr/hnms/english/climatology/climatology_region_diagrams_html?dr_city=Rodos taken from the official HNMS site. Rhodes has to be left there because it's based on official HNMS data, not only by the map itself. You doubt on the map being official data while putting unverifiable data... That's disruptive.
- I have left Lindos with that specific quotation, but your source doesn't show anything you claim on, as it's just a Greek source with lots of stations and it doesn't say in any moment that the 2014-2021 mean has been 21.9ºC and nevertheless even if we accept this (which we shouldn't, but I left it to see what other users think) this doesn't remove the fact that you've broken the 3RR even after I warned you several times. --TechnicianGB (talk) 13:29, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- Exactly, here is where the core of the content dispute lies. You are trying to generalize the Diagoras airport data to the Lindos official NOA data. We have covered this in the Lindos talk page [147]. Bear in mind that you have multiple edits yourself exactly because you are turning this content dispute into an all out edit war. You did the same in the Seville article recently. Weatherextremes (talk) 13:48, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- I'm not trying to generalize anything except for the fact you've deleted Rhodes with it's official HNMS source (again it said Rhodes, not Lindos) to add Lindos with a source that doesn't back up anything you say, that's disruptive editing because you were changing a reliable source that says what's referenced to against one that doesn't say nor proves what you've changed. Your first change (yesterday) was even unsourced, as proven above. You need to understand that Wikipedia doesn't work like this and also others as well as administrators have warned you in the past. Today you've made an edit war and after breaking the 3RR you always try to solve things up, but you don't try before doing it. The last time you only got warned, but it seems you didn't learn from it. Also, I don't know why you keep mentioning other pages that have no relationship with this 3RR that you've broken today. --TechnicianGB (talk) 14:20, 31 December 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, I replaced the word Rhodes with Lindos but kept the HNMS source however. I simply added the NOA source to highlight the huge difference between other areas of the island/Greece and Lindos. Again, I would advise you to try first to have a proper discussion in order to find a solution instead of rushing to report me every time. We found a solution in the Seville article, we did the same in Lindos article, the Athens article and we also managed to find a solution on this one at the end. I just ask that you remain calm and engage with me. In the end we always find a solution. We did it in 4 articles Weatherextremes (talk) 15:01, 31 December 2021 (UTC)

- They restored again, and replied to the talk page.
I stopped reverting at this point. Talk page discussion is still ongoing. Don't think a ban is necessary but an admin revert and comment might help them realize that they need to follow editing policy and stop restoring their disputed edits while the discussion is unresolved, it isn't an optional thing.

Diffs of the user's reverts: Minus: Gilead holds the patent for GS-441524, a nucleoside similar to remdesivir.[1] Studies suggest the compound is effective in treating the otherwise highly fatal feline infectious peritonitis, but Gilead opted against pursuing authorization for veterinary use of the compound, leading to a black market for buyers with FIP-infected cats.[1] The buyers generally source the compound from unauthorized producers in China.[2] In 2019, Gilead stated that it would not seek such authorization until after remdesivir had been approved for human use by the FDA, fearing that if complications of GS-441524 were to arise when used in cats, the approval of remdesivir would be slowed.[3] Some veterinarians and concerned cat owners have lobbied the company to reverse its stance.[4] Niels Pedersen, the researcher who demonstrated the effectiveness of GS-441524 against FIP in initial studies at UC Davis, has expressed frustration at the holdup of the drug's approval for veterinary use by Gilead,[2] which he believes is due to the company's fear of being unable to profit off of remdesivir.[5]

Comments:
The page in question is a major landmark (a lake) in the city of Minneapolis. Recently its name was officially changed to Bde Maka Ska, but unsurprisingly as few people speak the Dakota language, many people continue to refer to by its previous name, Lake Calhoun. The Wikipedia article includes a non-neutral POV in the lede sentence, claiming it is "formerly known as". It continues to be known by both names, regardless of whether a sole name is the official name. The verbiage ought to be changed, but some very active users on the page seem to be shutting down anyone who attempts to.
The editor in question also removed my "non-neutral POV lede" tag without it first meeting the proper requirements. Kislorod23 (talk) 19:35, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
- FYI: Kislorod is also involved in the edit war and has been warned. They also fail to provide sources for their edits as mentioned per talkpage. They claim many people refer to it by its previous name, yet haven't provided any reliable sources for their claims.
- I'm only following Wikipedia standards of removing unsourced POVs. All Kislorod has to do is provide sources for their edits. They're only bothering to "report me" for edit warring because they can't provide sources for their claims. They have also been warned about personal attacks and childish name calling against me. I have been polite during the whole discussion and interactions with them, clearly explaining how Wikipedia works since apparently they are a new user.

- If an admin wants to explain to them that they should provide reliable sources instead of edit warring or personal attacks, that would be great. oncamera (talk page) 19:50, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
- It's hardly edit warring when you improperly removed the non-neutral POV tag without the necessary conditions first being met, and I simply replaced it. As for 'reliable sources' for a name in current use, it's a red herring. I don't know, search Twitter? Do you live in Minneapolis? Then you've heard it, and you've admitted as much on the article's talk page when you said "eventually future generations will only know it as Bde Maka Ska." How about addressing the blatent POV motivation there? For the record, this all started because I changed the words "formerly known as" to "also known as" which makes it a truthful statement. If you look at my Wikipedia contributions they've all been minor. I'm irritated that this untrue sentence continues to be reinserted with a sense of arrogant moral superiority. I was never the one to put "Lake Calhoun" in the lede in the first place. Take care. Kislorod23 (talk) 19:57, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
- You apparently don't even understand the Template:POV tag since it clearly states YOU need to provide sources for your claims.

- The template:POV states that this tag should go on articles when: "An unbalanced or non-neutral article is one that does not fairly represent the balance of perspectives of high-quality, reliable secondary sources... The personal views of Wikipedia editors or the public are irrelevant.". Again, YOU need to provide high-quality, reliable secondary sources that show the previous name is used in media, newspapers, etc instead of Bde Maka Ska. Again the personal views of Wikipedia editors or the public are irrelevant per template:POV.

Wikipedia won't let me link to Twitter search, but anyone (clearly you don't care) can search "Lake Calhoun" and sort by date and see many people refer to it as that who are not me. Therefore it is still known as Lake Calhoun. Known being the operative word here. (Which I never wrote into the article!) Kislorod23 (talk) 20:09, 1 January 2022 (UTC)

Have been dealing with this for a few weeks now. Editor has not gained consensus to re-add the content or many sources. Editor has been explained multiple time the process for dispute resolution. Moxy- 01:57, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
I've reversed the editor's changes. He should respect WP:BRD & get a consensus for the changes he wishes to make. GoodDay (talk) 02:05, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
- I guess that I am the "higher authority". I have indefinitely pageblocked Cblambert from Louis Riel although they still have access to the article talk page to try to build consensus for any proposed changes. Let me know if this editor engages in disruption elsewhere. Cullen328 (talk) 02:37, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
- That works fine.....more administrator should do this.Moxy-
02:40, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
- Moxy, here is my thinking: If an editor is being disruptive on one article, then pageblocking that editor from editing that one article indefinitely is a better solution than blocking them temporarily from editing the entire encyclopedia. That gives the editor the opportunity to advocate for their changes on the article talk page, and improve the encyclopedia in less contentious areas. Of course, if their disruptive editing spreads more widely, a general block may be called for. But my observation is that some people have "a bee in their bonnet" about some specific topic, and keeping them away from directly editing that topic and forcing them to discuss with other interested editors is a good thing. We will see how it goes in this case. By the way, I have been observing the Louis Riel situation for weeks. Cullen328 (talk) 03:17, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

Comments:
This is adapted from an incident report from @Facu-el Millo:, who stated "This user keeps changing the plot summary, making it way too long and over the 700-word limit per WP:PLOTBLOAT, also poorly written and editorialized. The editor doesn't use edit summaries and does not respond to warnings at their talk page."
Then I came in with my take: On the ones I reverted, I put the full summary that Eds tried to put in into a word counter. I got 2200+ words. I wanted to check before I reverted just in case somehow the 4800+ character addition didn’t exceed the 700 word maximum. Keep in mind that it’s triple over the limit. So I revert it (including my observations in the edit summary) and soon find that it was readded with 100+ characters more than the previous version. No communication, just readded. And then there’s the fact that these are carried out over 30+ edit stretches. There’s obviously no use of the edit preview button. Granted, I’ve been neglecting it too, but this case is to an incredibly extreme extent. And I doubt it’s to save progress on a slow-responsive computer. The concerning behaviors are not just on NWH, but a few other pages he’s worked on, according to his contributions.
From @Jolly1253::To add on(as someone that is watching the page and have contributed), apparently the full summary that Eds tried to put in is copied from the MCU Wiki fandom page for NWH under 'Plot'. Prior to this, Eds had also tried to insert the same full summary on 31 December 2021, which was reverted
Then we were told that that was the wrong venue, and this was the proper one. We don’t know if he will be back, but this was getting ridiculous--CreecregofLife (talk) 08:55, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

Attempt to resolve dispute on user talk page:
Comments:
Reverts any addition to the Galaxy S21 FE on the main S21 article despite continuing talks on Talk:Samsung Galaxy S20 FE regarding merge. Already warned the user to keep status quo on both articles to which the S21 FE contents on the Samsung Galaxy S21 article remains together with the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE article created by Hajoon0102 (talk · contribs). The user has vehemently opposed the merger of the S21 FE without being too constructive on the reasoning as to why they do oppose and instead would resort to edit warring as seen above and would spam my talk page of warnings that reverses the story constituting a WP:HUSH.
To add further insult, the aforementioned user would reply in an unintelligible statement (possibly due to google translate as user is originally from Korean Wikipedia) and would retaliate by doing a counter-reporting, that while it is within their right, is done in bad faith given how the user goes as far as as to claim that "I damaged Samsung Galaxy S21 FE and reverting his edits without discussion" [214] when clearly I have been politely and constructively discussing the matter in Talk: Samsung Galaxy S20 FE as per WP:ETIQUETTE wherein I instead included S21 FE instead for a merge proposal template retaining the status quo in both the S21 FE article and my earlier edits in the main S21 article until a consensus has been made.
Clearly, the discussion is ongoing and as such I am being open to arguments from both sides but the other user would only sporadically chime in without much discussion on their opinion. I'm open to more opinions, but any discussion cannot start from a user who barely expounds on their point and rarely engages in a constructive dialogue. So I request that the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE and my edits including the S21 FE in the main Samsung Galaxy S21 be kept up until a consensus has been made in the Talk:Samsung Galaxy S20 FE as an act of WP:DGF.

- Yes, that is why I prevented a WP:EDITWAR by doing a report instead since you have breached 3RR and I wouldn't want to do the same. Plus when something is not done, the best recourse is to keep both at status quo ergo my edits in the main S21 article and the S21 FE article you created. Also user keeps on insisting I am reverting his edits [215] when he was the one that keeps on reverting to the point of violating the 3RR .GadgetsGuy (talk) 06:26, 5 January 2022 (UTC)

- Article is under WP:ARBEE. Contested issue is within the scope of WP:AGEMATTERS guideline, with editor's persistent insistence on using older book of the same author, whose last book on the very subject matter in question is 20+ years younger and in which author completely refutes the editor's argument and everything they read in to author's earlier works.--౪ Santa ౪99° 01:03, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
- Age matters does not implies in this case especially if there are other books newer or older that only confirm Fine. Which is in this case. Zachumlia was inhabited by Serbs since the arrival of Slavs here is just one of examples [252] from the book from 2018. and all other historians confirm that. This editor uses WP:SYNTH thinking that if Fine writes something in one book that does not have anything to do with Zachumlia, that they can apply that on other articles. The last book of Fine deals with Croatia and not with Zachumlia.

User keeps adding the meaningless and unhelpful phrase "Schooling and Intermediate" to this article. Usertalk and analysis of contribs shows that with few exceptions this user has a blatant history of trolling and vandalism. Has already been blocked for three months for vandalism in June 2021 despite sparse edit history.
The user was reported here at ANEW five days ago [282]. The applied sanction obviously did not work, as the editor is back at it. Softlavender (talk) 01:10, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
Page protected Semi-protected for a month, as there seem to be a regular stream of IPs making questionable or BLP violating edits, and the page has been protected similarly not that long ago.

William, after disagreeing with me on edits to a different article (which I'm no longer interested in wasting any time on so if he'd left it alone I'd have moved on), chased my edits on a completely unrelated page (adding a link & summary in the "see also" section for a similar event in another country), reverted them three times claiming this very short section which is effectively a summary from the lead of the newly linked page is somehow "personal syn bias"). 2:25 Jan 6, 4:02 Jan 6, 20:22 Jan 6 (from the time as I see it on the contributions). Breaching 3RR unless I'm sorely mistaken. Do I have to be worried now about someone with a major history of incivility chasing all of my edits and reverting them for no reason? Macktheknifeau (talk) 14:33, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
- First, William M. Connolley, didn't exceed 3 reverts in a 24hr period thus isn't defacto edit warring. Second, per ONUS, once the edit was challenged the burden is on you to get consensus for this new content. Take it to the talk page. If the content is good it shouldn't be hard to get others to support it. You can always use the various noticeboards or a RfC if no one joins the discussion.

Why is Spanish being replaced with Catalan? Last time I checked, Catalonia wasn't independent, but rather a part of Spain. GoodDay (talk) 22:21, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
- Exactly. The editor, Eric, is on a campaign of ideological editing on Patrick O'Brian, Stephen Maturin, and related articles removing "Spain" and "Spanish", which are the actual true country and nationality of origin of Stephen Maturin. I explained to the editor that we can accommodate for both national and regional on the Talk page. There is no need to delete any information that is a fact. The editor, instead, decided to create a warning on this page, instead of using the Talk page to debate it. He has not responded on the Talk page at all to any of my messages. However, he came here to post a warning, directly. He did not try to debate anything. He just used the Talk pager to put a comment, and right afterward came directly here. Again, as the Talk page says, I am more than happy to put both national origin and regional origin. However, the editor decided to just remove my changes, which added the national origins. Irland and Spain are countries and Irish and Spanish nationalities. Catalonia is a region of Spain, and Catalan is not a nationality. I suggested to the editor to, after the national origins, add also the regional origins. The editor did not respond and he just created a warning (the one above) accusing me of a campaign and went ahead to removing Spain and Spanish without any explanation whatsoever. That is the definition of ideological vandalism. Temax (talk) 23:39, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
- No violation.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:47, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
- Your comment is not clear. No violation to have an actual factual truth, which is keeping Spanish, or no violation to remove it without reason? Temax (talk) 23:39, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
GoodDay and all, I think if you look at Temax's contribution history, you will see that this report is a retaliatory expedition by the user in response to the above report by me, and to a couple messages I left the user.

This is totally untrue. I have modified the article just by adding the country of origin and explained in the [[283]] page that we can also add the regional origins. To sum up, I am ok with both national and regional origins being explained, but Eric is continuously deleting the country of Spain, and any reference to Spanish. That is the definition of vandalism, especially when the person we are referring to was Spanish. I posted a warning on the editor's talkpage about his vandalism, and he claims that I just did it in the user page. But that was just an honest mistake. It is now in the Talk page.

I agree with using Spanish, instead of Catalan. As Catalonia is still a part of Spain. When your block expires, perhaps a less combative approach would be best. Consider opening up an RFC on whether or not to use Spanish or Catalan, for example. GoodDay (talk) 00:08, 8 January 2022 (UTC)

Comments:
After Covid-19 became serious in early 2020, airlines around the world suspended flying certain routes from pretty much all airports, including Niš Constantine the Great Airport. On other airport pages - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Airports - the convention is that routes which are not currently flown, are not bookable for a future date (e.g. 6 months in advance), and have no specific date for a resumption of flights are considered to be terminated and thus removed from an airport wiki page. Airlines however typically issue press releases saying the flying is temporarily suspended, but do not bother to say later that a temporary suspension has become permanent. Thus, when should Wikipedia remove a route from an airport page ? There seems to be quite a few people on this wiki page who propose removal of these suspended air routes, but Easternmagic has a different opinion. Can an admin take a look please ?

Ignoring requests for discussion, ignoring warnings, repeatedly reverting against consensus and policy All my warmest wishes, ItsKesha (talk) 00:01, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
- I definitely haven't ignored requests for discussion, you can see my contributions on the Talk page. There is no consensus. The article has thousands of readers and dozens of authors, and 4 - four (sic!) - of you agreed upon deleting the section. That is not what I call a consensus, so stop misleading. I have stated quite clearly that the given statistics have their justification and significance. No one has convinced me otherwise. Likewise, I can argue that you ignore warnings and keep reverting. Thanks. Penepi (talk) 00:13, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
- Your contributions on the talk page were: "Are player statistics not part of the tournament?" (nobody was arguing for or against this), "the list as such is, in my view, useful and readable" (there's no context or explanation to the statistics whatsoever), and "it looks like you haven't really looked at the statistics. Otherwise, you wouldn't write that it has no context" (hint, there is no context to the statistics and, when asked, you have failed to provide any). Four people citing policy versus one edit-warrior saying there is context without describing it, is not misleading, but a highly accurate view of proceedings. "I said this thing quite clearly but offered no explanation as to why and with no sources" yeah I'm sure that'll help people reading the article understand the context. Your non-explanation on the talk page. Also, well done on completely misusing "sic". All my warmest wishes, ItsKesha (talk) 00:26, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
- ItsKesha, I will not react unnecessarily to that amount of nonsense when the decision has already been made and, moreover, has expired. Anyway, you may want to study basic facts next time before you start teaching others in an embarrassing, sarcastic tone. Penepi (talk) 23:14, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
- I won't block em cause I reverted once, and it's not obviously vandalism or something like that, so I guess I'm involved--but they certainly deserve to be blocked. On the other hand, they stopped--but I think it would be good for an admin to at least slap em on the wrist. The whole "there's thousands of readers and only four supported deletion" (and they are the ONLY ONE in favor), with that silly "sic" in there, shows that they completely misunderstand, intentionally perhaps, what consensus is.

Comments:
Moves of the article's title have been requested four times. Every time, the result has been no consensus (neither for the current nor for the proposed name), and the current name has been maintained just because it was the status quo. A constant is that BarrelProof (talk · contribs) has vehemently led the opposition to every move request over the years. The reason for the request is that the current title of the article Technical University of Berlin is a free translation not accepted by the university.
After the last requested move in 2020 (the fourth one), whose result was too close to tell, a new section called name was added to reflect the fact that the university considers the name Technical University of Berlin as inappropriate (which is obviously relevant for the readers, as they deserve to know that using the name Technical University of Berlin in considered impolite).
The section was repeatedly edited by me and BarrelProof (talk · contribs) [300] [301] up until a version arisen we both could live with. Surprisingly, however, BarrelProof (talk · contribs) let a couple of month passed by, just to delete it when no one noticed (as it was). I know I've got to Wikipedia:Assume good faith but the user is making it very hard for me. Now after undoing the deletion, the user insists on deleting it. I know, that 3R within a day have not occurred, but it's a clear case of edit warring by an experienced user, who knows how to go around the rules. It's behavior in this article over the years has shown the every discussion is futile.
I'm open to more opinions, but any discussion cannot start from the version that BarrelProof (talk · contribs) has been trying to impose by force. So I request that the consensus version including the section be kept up until further notice SFBB (talk)
— Above comment submitted at 00:51, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
- I welcome this discussion and I'm looking forward to hearing how others feel about the content dispute and the article naming issue, which have been repeatedly disputed (although they are really rather minor matters in the grand scheme of things). Just to correct the record, it looks like I did not participate in the first two RMs, and I believe there have been five of them. And the most recent disputed matter had been stable for the last year and three months until a couple of days ago. My view, of course, is that Wikipedia does not need to really worry much about what name for it is "accepted by the university" (to use the complainant's phrase, if indeed the university's view is being properly interpreted by the complainant) – e.g., per WP:OFFICIALNAME. Since things like WP:OFFICIALNAME and WP:IRS are part of Wikipedia's well-supported guidelines/policies, I feel pretty confident of my opinion. I also believe that the so-called "consensus version" of the article was not really supported by any evident consensus. Concerning 3RR, there have been only two reverts in two days on my side (and three reverts in two days by the complainant), and this content dispute just arose a couple of days ago after more than a year of stability, but it would be nice to get input from others to help resolve it. Please note that the first of the three reverts by me that were shown in the complaint was from more than a year ago, so this has not an especially heated recent battle. More commentary can be found on the article Talk page, so I will try to avoid repeating everything I have said here. I also somewhat have the impression that there's been a bit of attempting to prevail by insistence, and recently a threat to report the incident here; that's really not much of a threat, of course, as I welcome opening such a discussion. — BarrelProof (talk) 01:24, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
- SFBB, you have not demonstrated any WP:3RR violation, and it is you who are editwarring to restore your BOLD edit, when instead per WP:BRD you need to go to the talkpage and make your case and establish WP:CONSENSUS before attempting to restore your BOLD reverted edit. ANEW is therefore not the correct venue for this, unless you want to be blocked for edit-warring. I therefore suggest you withdraw this report. Softlavender (talk) 03:45, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

Despite of the open report the user insists on imposing his version by force and kept the edit warring [302]. SFBB (talk) 01:01, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
- Is there some rule that people are supposed to stop editing once a discussion starts here and retain the version most recently edited by the complaining party? — BarrelProof (talk) 02:42, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
- To answer your questions: This noticeboard is about edit-warring only, never about content. Do not edit war even though you may be right. Discuss content on the talkpage of the article and reach WP:CONSENSUS. -- Softlavender (talk) 03:38, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
- I've had a quick look and I don't think blocks or any sanctions are helpful at this stage. I think it would be useful for one of you to get a third opinion or suggest dispute resolution. I admit I haven't read the talk page discussion, but from a quick look at the recent history, might I suggest a compromise that the policy about the name goes in a footnote rather than the body of the article. It does seem a shame that such an important article about one of the most prominent universities in Europe is quite small in relation to its German Wikipedia counterpart and you seem to be getting involved with relatively minor details. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:58, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Softlavender: I frankly do no understand at all why you say I'm the one editwarring. I guess, you just checked the history of the article and observed that in the last three days I was the one reverting first. If so, you're completely missing the point:
- 1.- The section name was established after continuous editions between me and BarrelProof (talk · contribs). For instance, [303],[304],[305],[306],[307],[308],[309]. Note that the last one, which I accepted as a consensus was written by BarrelProof himself.
- 2.- As I accepted the consensus version (again written by BarrelProof) and I operate assuming good faith, I stopped watching the page. Obviously I did not expect than a couple of months later BarrelProof would come back to delete the very consensus version he himself had proposed. This is the BOLD edition.
- 3.- When I discovered the BOLD edition by BarrelProof I reverted it ([310]). That's precisely what WP:BRD suggests.
- 4.- I want to stress that a BOLD edition going against a consensus version doesn't stop being a BOLD edition, because no one discovers it in months. Otherwise, you'd be creating a perverse incentive to hide editions by faking the acceptance of consensus just to delete them after the other users stop watching the article.we already went though a WP:BRD process; what would be the incentive to go through that again if in the very moment I stopped looking, everything will be deleted again
- Finally, I'm very much aware what this noticeboard is for and I'm only requesting that the consensus version of the section of 31 May 2020 (again written by BarrelProof) be upheld and not the BOLD edition by the same user once I stopped watching the page. As I said before I'm open for a WP:DRN, but I'm not willing to start that while the status quo is the BOLD edition. That's not how WP:BRD works. SFBB (talk) 01:22, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
- PS: @Ritchie333: The name issue is not WP:BIKESHED. Anyone who knows the university well, knows how important it is (see e.g. the Affiliation Policy, among many documents that stress the importance of the issue). I comes as no surprise that dozens of users have discussed the issue in the Talk Page and the so many Move Requests have been made personally, myself I worked for the university in the past - although because of WP:COI I did not edit up until I had already moved to another institution - and I vividly remember colleagues threatening to leave conferences if the batches were not corrected o speakers boldly interrupting the presenters, because the name was wrong SFBB (talk) 01:22, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
- As far as I know, that referenced document has not previously been mentioned during discussion of this content dispute. It is interesting new information, and I encourage further discussion of it on the article's Talk page. Thank you also for confirming your previous affiliation with the university – I had wondered previously if you had some sort of special connection with this matter. Please note that the the version of the article of 31 May 2020 was not written by me (it was a minor edit of two sentences that had last been edited by you, I believe), and I never said I supported that version of the article, which obviously was from more than a year and a half ago anyway. The fact that I edited something to improve it does not indicate that I agree with it. My edit of that version was just to correct an obvious falsehood, but was not an indication that I supported what remained in those two sentences. From your anecdote about outbursts at conferences based on the affiliation printed on people's badges (presumably based on how they had listed their affiliation when registering for the conference), it seems clear that the dispute on this matter may exist outside of Wikipedia as well as here. If you can find any independent reliable sources that discuss it, that would be especially interesting. — BarrelProof (talk) 17:30, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

There appears to be a standoff on the article talk page. SFBB declares "I refuse to discuss with you.." The steps of WP:Dispute resolution are available. Consider an WP:RFC or WP:DRN if the two of you can't reach agreement. EdJohnston (talk) 03:00, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
