I do realize I made a mistake here. I misunderstood the rule and did not read much into it when I should have. I will cease the edits and attempt to talk with Bacon like I should have in the first place. If there is any punishment that will result of this I will accept it. I do want to add to this by saying that I did not feel that BaconDrum was listening to me by telling me to create a discussion whether he was or not I am not sure as he would know that. That is all I have to say at this moment. Wollers14 (talk) 19:30, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
- If they've agreed to stop edit warring then I think this can serve as a warning not to edit war and no further action is required at this time. Bacondrum 20:31, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
- I can agree. Bacon let's just resolve this issue and move past it because I misunderstood many things regarding this incident. Wollers14 (talk) 20:56, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

User:KiridaSenpai reported by User:JamesLucas (Result: Blocked)
Page: Byte (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
User being reported: KiridaSenpai (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
On 28 January, over the course of five edits (which displayed some care and other signs of good faith), KiridaSenpai added to Byte a substantial table of prefixes that are possibly a form of original work and certainly referenced. Since then, there has been a slow revert-war between KiridaSenpai on one side and three editors (Dondervogel 2, Woodstone, and myself) on the other. (I’ll forgo individual diffs since they account for all recent edits of Byte.)
Plenty of efforts have been made to explain our collective concerns, and Dondervogel 2 has made multiple attempts to open a dialogue both at Byte’s talk page and on KiridaSenpai’s talk page. So far the only communication I have seen from KiridaSenpai, aside from one edit summary that I infer was intended as obfuscation, is a message expressing frustration mistakenly left on the talk page of an IP editor who years ago left a message for Dondervogel 2. With the most recent revert, we are now at seven. I issued a stern warning yesterday, and I request that a block now be implemented. —jameslucas ▄▄▄ ▄ ▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▄ 13:21, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: article talk page discussion, dating back to August with no resolution or input by wider community. I'm on my own here. Also got no help at Template talk:Infobox character. If this is brushed off as merely a content dispute like last time, then it's a pretty one-sided dispute when I've made plenty of effort to engage in discussion.
Comments:
An IP-hopper is removing content (voice acting credits) from the The Fat Controller. They are being unresponsive via talk pages, only responding via edit summaries with a hostile and uncivil tone. They also did not take kindly to my 3RR warning, interpreting it as a threat when it is nothing of the sort—I'm going by the book in posting it at their talk page.
The IP's rationales (see abovementioned diffs) make no sense, nor have they provided any WikiProject guideline on this when asked repeatedly. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 21:31, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
- Another IP joining the party: [16]. Of course they agree(!) That's just disruptive editing at this point—not a content dispute. If there's no desire to engage in discussion outside of edit summaries, then what is WP:BRD even for? Observe the avoidance of article talk page discussion. I've done my part.

The two users who reported just revert anyone's edits. They act like they own the article and have been nothing but hostile since I joined wikipedia PlainAndSimpleTailor (talk) 19:36, 2 February 2021 (UTC) AnalysisAllow me to provide an analysis. The dispute centres around the use of specific words. These are favoured by the defendant: Michael Dougan believed the bill as originally introduced could potentially restrict, .... Whereas these are the choice of the plaintiff: and to restrict, in practice .... This is how the edits and reverts have played out: Introduction of disputed words, by Cambial Yellowing [24] Revert 1 by PlainAndSimpleTailor - WP:BRD applies [25] Revert 1 by Cambial Yellowing, ignoring WP:BRD and starting an edit war [26] Revert 2 by PlainAndSimpleTailor [27] Revert 1 by FDW777 [28] Revert 3 by PlainAndSimpleTailor [29] Revert 2 by FDW777 [30] Finally, a major edit by PlainAndSimpleTailor removes contested words, but this is justified, given the magnitude of the edit.

Disclosure: PlainAndSimpleTailor came to me for advice after I'd placed a welcome note on her (IP) Talk page.

- @EdJohnston: Having spent several days now trying to get this user to abide by various policies (edit warring, blanking, NPOV, RS, and edit summaries, with others warning them about vandalism and disruptive editing), I am extremely pessimistic that they won't return to the exact same behavior the moment that the block expires. They have so far shown zero ability to edit constructively and collaboratively, nor have they shown any sign that they understand any of the principles in question except maybe H:ES. (Beyond that, the closest they've come is starting a thread on talk at my suggestion, but then continuing to edit-war.) Given the amount of time that I and others have spent reverting them, warning them, and debating with them, I really have to agree with Phoenix7777 regarding an indef: Dreamkid shouldn't be allowed to edit anywhere until they can affirmatively indicate that they understand these policies and plan to abide by them. If they can do that, then sure, give them some rope, but I don't see any room left for good faith given their behavior in their first 100 edits.

This user is involved in edit war and violate WP:3RR Gunkarta talk 05:37, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
Response from MrCatttt: Gunkarta deleted a fully cited 4 well-published resources because he/she/they think it is “debunked” by ONE reference that he/she/they has in another section in the article. After careful reading, I noticed that the edit was a violation of Wikipedia no original research policy. The book did not mention that this theory is “debunked”. It was purely Gunkarta's assumption. So I believe the editor has been biased toward the references and assumes the other theory is “debunked” from a conclusion he/she/they get from a line in a book and NOT from the author of the book. Gunkarta also offered no justification other than a vague comment during reverting and in the talk page. Nevertheless, Gunkarta also violated the WP:3RR since he/she/they was the first to start the edit war. I believe both of us should have engage in discussion, and i believe we can do so MrCattttt (talk) 11:41, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
- Administrative Comment MrCattttt, stop reverting immediately and join the discussions that Gunkarta has opened on talk page. Gunkarta, to be clear, you too have broken 3RR. Please be very careful in your reverts from hereon. Continue the discussions. Stop reverting please. Report here those editors who revert without gaining consensus. Hope this is clear. Thanks.

Comments:
Sorry about the apparently complicated diffs, it is actually only about the continuous removal of tags. I warned the editor on 31 January here and both myself and editor Shadow4dark warned again on 3 and 4 February here. Included in my warning of 4 February, I asked that the tags be restored immediately or a report would be filed. The response is here, the editor refers to me as a "Filastiniun", he appears to believe that I am a Palestinian, in the final diff above, his edit summary says "..this Palestinian will call it fake." although it will be noted that it is in fact unusual for WikiCleanerMan to provide any edit summaries. I have also attempted to resolve this problem on the article talk page without success. (The root cause of this problem is that WikiCleanerMan insists that the article subject, an alliance, exists but is unable to provide a foundational source article that confirms the existence of the alliance and its membership.)(Question? Do I need to notify the other editors mentioned?)Selfstudier (talk) 18:47, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe you should when you were supporting the article to be deleted you never provided the non-existence of the alliance. Never had you provided a source contradicting all the sources I added. You call this edit warring because you don't like what the article, which is, of a real topic, and this whining to administrators is really pathetic. You have a history of disruptive editing which can be found on your talk page here and you were harassing and attacking other editors under the talk page section titled Formal notice of ban. And you have a history of editing articles relating to Israel with the purpose of anti-Israeli bias which violates the neutrality standards that editors on Wikipedia should maintain. This is evidence that you're a Filastiniun or Arab who hates Israel. And to the administrators, please take a look at his complete refusal to provide evidence on the article's deletion disccussion.

OPTIONAL: User Warned of Edit Warring here
Response from nicksmyth3: Viewmont Viking deleted a carefully written and fully cited 3-paragraph section of a biographically Wiki page. He offered no justification other than a vague and false attack on it as "puffery". Now he is reporting an "edit war" because I think his edit is unfair. He is the one who started this "edit war." If he makes fair edits to the page, I will not undo them. I also note that I am using my real name, and Viewmont Viking is hiding behind an anonymous name. He obviously has a bone to pick with Michael Barr and is unhappy with my truthful and accurate edits of the page. If he has something to say, he should do his own research and writing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nicksmyth3 (talk • contribs) 15:07, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

What a joke. This is why wikipedia is not a reliable source - because people hiding behind anonymous handles delete responsible, good-faith edits. I don't know who Karinthrasher is and I didn't coordinate with her. I did not use multiple accounts. Maybe she or he is just another smart person who cares about having truthful, unbiased pages. The version you restored contains factual inaccuracies written by people who are attempted to harm and misrepresent Michael Barr's career. But obviously you all don't care about truth and objective content or you would not have deleted all of the edits made since February 2. Nicksmyth3 (talk) 14:32, 5 February 2021 (UTC)nicksmyth3
- Note, Nicksmyth3 just vandalised this entire page by deleting various pieces of text from top to bottom. Recommend an indef of Nicksmyth3 as he's clearly not here to build an encyclopedia. — Czello 14:45, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
Response from Nicksmyth3: I don't know why Czello deleted my comment here. I did not mean to change the template. I am not an coder, so I just write in plain text. I don't know who Karinthrasher is and I have not coordinated my edits with anyone else. This whole process feels deeply unfair. VViking is clearly a high-volume wikipedia writer and therefore he took advantage of the process to prevent me from making good-faith edits to Barr's page. And now you various anonymous people have locked the page, saving edits that were inaccurate about Mr. Barr's positions on unions, derivatives reform, etc, and deleting the edits I and others made to provide a lot of useful and informative content about his academic career and potential OCC appointment. I feel that I've wasted a lot of time trying to make Wikipedia better, and I won't make that mistake again. Nicksmyth3 (talk) 14:47, 5 February 2021 (UTC)nicksmyth3

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Sword_of_the_Spirit#Location_of_Atwood_Quote
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Sword_of_the_Spirit#People_of_Praise_Bangalore
Comments:
I thought the location of the Atwood quote was suboptimal, so I moved it to a different location. Linn C Doyle reverted it so I tried to discuss it on the talk page, but the conversation quickly devolved into a rehash of previous arguments on the talk page, which are not relevant to the location of the Atwood quote. I tried a different location that seemed like a compromise between our two points of view, but they reverted that also without an explanation, simply asking me to "discuss further". I tried to discuss further, but their only response to my discussion was a second "discuss further", this time in bold. You can see this all in the first linked discussion. Since they refused to respond, I decided to revert to my second location (the compromise location), which they reverted again. This is three of the reverts.
I also realized there was an issue with the People of Praise information, because it was conflating two People of Praise organizations, so I edited to fix the confusion. They reverted this edit too, and started a discussion (second linked discussion). Based on this discussion I made an edit which tries to compromise between our positions (though I still hope to discuss further, since I do not think the compromise was necessary, and they gave little justification for reverting my edit). This makes 4 reversions (this revert actually happened before the last revert mentioned in my previous paragraph).
After they had made 4 reverts I left a warning on their user page asking them to undo the fourth revert, but instead they only deleted my warning without responding. If you check the Second linked discussion, they mention that they had made 3 reverts already, so I think its clear they knew about the rule before making the fourth revert.
Over the course of this discussion I have made 1 revert, putting the Atwood quote at what I hoped would be a compromise location, as they refused to discuss why they reverted that original edit.Sudonymous (talk) 16:57, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
Update: I left the edit war noticeboard warning on their talk page, and we had a small discussion of the issue there, but they are not deleting my responses on their talk page. I've tried reverting some but I don't want to get into an edit war just over preserving my part of the conversation. Sudonymous (talk) 18:08, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
- Result: No block, since User:Linn C Doyle undid their last revert at my request. I remain uncertain whether Linn has a grasp of the WP:Consensus model. They should avoid making large changes without support from others. The steps of WP:Dispute resolution are open to both of you. EdJohnston (talk) 02:19, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- @EdJohnston:
- My understanding of WP:Consensus is in part...
- In deletion discussions, a lack of consensus normally results in the article, page, image, or other content being kept.
- In discussions of proposals to add, modify or remove material in articles, a lack of consensus commonly results in retaining the version of the article as it was prior to the proposal or bold edit.
- Am I misunderstanding something when I am reverting to restore the article in these eventualities? Could you please correct what I have misunderstood to avoid future misunderstanding?
- My understanding of the previous consensus is the version of the article which has been restored by admins, anti vandalism, and other editors with no suspected COI. Is this correct, or is there a misunderstanding here that you could explain to me to avoid future incident?
- I am not experienced with WP:Dispute resolution could you please provide some guidance on the correct avenue to address some of my concerns?
- * Undeclared COIs who claim not to be COIs. I have evidence of COI.
- * Declared COIs trying to work out the real life identity of editors.
- * An attack notice was put on this page by an undeclared COI. This notice was removed by admin https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sword_of_the_Spirit&diff=994796012&oldid=994795359 however a declared COI appears to be attempting to threaten legal action.
- * I can work out sockpuppets, vandalism and disruptive editing.
- Thank You.Linn C Doyle (talk) 02:56, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- Linn C Doyle, when you have made a plain violation of WP:3RR you can't talk yourself out of the consequences by citing the deletion policy or the COI guideline. Just stop edit warring and try to get on with things. Also, you are risking a block if you accuse the other party of vandalism when the two of you are just having a content dispute. EdJohnston (talk) 03:12, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- I not interested altering any opinions on edit warring disputes, or directing any accusation at the user you are referring to here, I am instead trying to find out a solution to persistent WP:PA and the above listed issues on the page in question which have been ongoing over the several past months. Are you able to provide any assistance or direction in addressing these concerns. Linn C Doyle (talk) 03:24, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

- Administrative Comment ABC paulista, you have crossed 3RR. Please immediately self-revert and confirm that you will not continue reverting until consensus is reached on the article's talk page for any changes. If you do not respond here, and if you continue edit warring, you will be blocked. You have a clean block record; please don't spoil this. Please respond soon. Lourdes 07:27, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- I won't try to excuse myself here, I did cross WP:3RR and it wasn't right. But I don't think that the self-revert is necessary here since I was just trying to follow WP:BRD and WP:CONSENSUS to keep the page on the conditions it was before the controversial bold edit was made, and the editor who reported me repeteadly ignored both guidelines. Currently, a discussion on the talk page about it is ongoing, and no further edits on the page were made, so I'm in favor of keeping things the way they are now and continuing try to reach consensus there. ABC paulista (talk) 12:57, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

- Hi Rees. ABC could have been blocked without warning for going beyond 3RR. I gave ABC the last warning at 7.27 UTC. ABC came back online, maintained at 12.57 UTC that he will not self-revert, and was liable to be blocked instantly after that. I chose to give ABC one last benefit of doubt immediately thereafter for a few minutes more while he was evidently online. Please note that I am not here to chaperon a disruptive editor (who has been given a final warning hours before) to the ends of care. That said, these words are not against you. Warmly, Lourdes 16:51, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

- Comment Alex B4, while I have blocked the OP, you have to immediately stop your reverts. You have crossed 3RR. It doesn't matter whether your version represents consensus; let some other editor revert the page to the consensus version from here on. You and Doubledoppler will both be blocked if you continue this edit war. Take the higher ground if you have confidence in consensus building on the article talk page and stop reverting.

I'm not going to continue to pointless try to edit the article while he's on his revert-spree, but the article's history is nothing but edits and his reversion of those edits, to the point that the page was fully protected multiple times. The editor disregards any other edits and then adds his own content, declaring that content to be a "longstanding version" despite the fact that what he's adding back is literally a few minutes old, hardly the "longstanding version" but content or tags that they do not agree with becomes instantly reverted, with "get an RfC" as the answer. The editor has serious WP:OWN issues regarding the article and it has been and continues to be a problem. - Aoidh (talk) 23:11, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
I have tried repeatedly to ask that we find solution to multiple issues around the content disputes that are taking place the past 3 months on the article.All of my recent edits with independent high quality sources are always removed, always found insufficient, always problematic. I believe that the problems are actually relating to coordinated efforts to discredit any achievement from UoPeople. I am merely sourcing them in the article with good sources. I have mostly tried to find excellent sources the past 10 years that I have been editing and I believe I am doing a relatively OK job. As the admin suggest in the talk page of the article we need to have and RfA in order to sort the longstanding content disputes once and for all Weatherextremes (talk) 23:31, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
- Have you started this "RfA" (RfC?) that you're referring to? "Start an RfC or we do it my way" is not how articles are written, especially when (1) these diffs are brand new, not some long-hashed out thing that calls for an RfC and (2) your sources are press releases and the like, which yes, do need better sources. The article deserves better than that. But more importantly, instead of actually addressing the content on the talk page, you're accusing me of being part of a coordinated effort to attack the article? Do you have diffs or evidence to support that? It's at the point where I'm not going to bother putting better sources in because they're just going to get reverted; there's no editing the article while Weatherextremes feels he can revert anything he doesn't like. - Aoidh (talk) 23:34, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
I believe editors who started obsessively editing out my comments 3 months now should be the ones to prove that the sources are problematic. Regarding the presswire source I already answered in the article (it was a joint press released) and have provided an extra source. Apart from that we have the youtube video featuring HBS Online Dean. I do not understand the scrutiny my edits receive. In all honesty it is strange how all my sources are always worthless Weatherextremes (talk) 23:57, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

He or she has been warned multiple times but the edit warring and article ownership persists; a block is clearly in order. ElKevbo (talk) 23:58, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Elkevbo remember you started reverting me many times. I merely pointing out that my edits are the only ones that are found problematic consistently by a number of editors. I have clearly sided with UoPeople achievements using good sources. It is strange that these sources are targeted and almost always found problematic. Weatherextremes (talk) 00:04, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
- You've reverted (nearly?) every edit that anyone else has made to the article over the past two months, including uncontroversial edits made by bots. You clearly disagree with our policies on collaboration, particularly WP:EW and WP:OWN, or have no intention of collaborating with others. You need to stop reverting other editors or be blocked from editing the article. As you clearly have no intention of stopping your three-month long edit war you need to be blocked. ElKevbo (talk) 00:13, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
I admit that some edit were done hastingly (thus reverted bots). You know I am not very savvy when it comes to editing in a hurry but I am trying to improve. So sorry for that! I made the same mistake today. However the main focus here is this obsession by a number of editors to attack my work which is very very meticulous when it comes to finding high quality sources. Basically what I am saying here that I am not easy to crack when I wholeheartedly believe I am contributing to the wiki project. I would also advise you not to pass judgement on whether or not I respect wiki policies. I have noticed in your talk page you have a tendency to threaten editors. Rest assured I will not be bullied just to satisfy yours and other editors anti-UoPeople issues. My presence the past 10 years in the project speaks much more than your accusations of me not respecting wiki policy. Weatherextremes (talk) 00:36, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
- Partial blocked from the page for 1 month. This is an excessive case of WP:EW and WP:OWN. Admittedly, some of the dozens of reverts were against IP or unregistered users that may or may not have been productive, but I count at least five experienced editors that have also suffered their posts being summarily reverted to Weatherextremes' preferred version. Also the comment "I will not be bullied just to satisfy yours and other editors anti-UoPeople issue" sounds very much like someone whose raison d'etre on this article may be to whitewash it, and I see nothing in looking through many of the edits to dissuade me from this.

From reading of the talk page comments and the external links, it appears that User:Evermind and User:71.135.36.192 have been having a years-long argument in the comments section of a blog, and have brought their dispute here to Wikipedia. --Srleffler (talk) 19:02, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
- Blocked – 24 hours, per another report. EdJohnston (talk) 20:41, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
My IP address has changed... to hinder hackers, it only has a 24 hour lease.
What I state on the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_exitance page and the associated Talk page can be verified in the links [1] - [4] below.
In [3a], physicist Dr. Charles R. Anderson, PhD presents the consensus solution to the parallel plane black body radiator problem and demonstrates that it is wrong (this is where he demonstrates that the consensus solution violates Stefan's Law). His solution is not a 'non-consensus' view, the mathematics and concepts are taken from the book Thermal Physics [1] by Philip M. Morse, Professor of Physics at MIT, co-founding editor of Annals of Physics, co-founder of MIT Acoustics Laboratory, first Director of Brookhaven National Laboratory, founder of MIT Computation Center.
User 'Evenminded' has for years attempted to bend, fold, spindle and mutilate any information he can find in order that he can slap it patchwork onto his odd hobby theory, in which he claims continual 2LoT violations can cause catastrophic global warming.
The obvious first problem with that is that 2LoT is a fundamental physical law... it's not violated willy-nilly... if it were, it wouldn't be a law.
- Law: A mathematically rigorous description of how some aspect of the natural world behaves.
- Theory: An explanation of an empirical observation which is rigorously substantiated by tested hypotheses, facts and laws.
- Laws describe how things behave in the natural world, whereas theories explain why they behave the way they do.
- For instance, we have the law of gravity which describes how an object will behave in a gravitational field, but we're still looking for a gravitational theory which fits into quantum mechanics and the Standard Model and explains why objects behave the way they do in a gravitational field.
In fact, a macroscopic 2LoT violation has never been empirically observed, and at the quantum scale, there are several subsets of 2LoT which must be met for any quantum transition to take place, so it's even more rigorously observed at the quantum scale. [2]
Let's examine what Evenminded claims. He claims that all objects emit radiation as though they're in a 0 K ambient, and that objects absorb radiation from cooler ambient or objects (thus implying that all objects absorb as though in an ∞ K ambient). He does this because he denies the existence of radiation pressure, a manifestation of energy density (see Stefan-Boltzmann equations below).
What Evenminded claims to reflect reality cannot... physicist Dr. Charles R. Anderson, PhD showed that it violates Stefan's Law [3a], and it obviously violates 2LoT in the Clausius Statement sense... he's explicitly stated that he believes that energy can flow without work being done, which is akin to stating that objects must absorb all radiation incident upon them. He also states that real-world objects (not idealized blackbody objects) emit as though they're in a 0 K ambient because he denies the existence of radiation pressure.
Evenminded has stated: "Radiation pressure has no bearing on the radiant emittance of a surface." Blatantly false. "The Stefan-Boltzmann relationship is also related to the energy density in the radiation in a given volume of space."[4]
Thus, he's deluded himself into treating real-world objects as though they're idealized blackbodies emitting into a 0 K ambient. His solution for the problem of radiant emittance from a 303.15 K surface into a 287.64 K ambient was 479 W/m^2 because of this, when in reality, a real-world surface would emit 84.96925 W/m^2 (for an emissivity of 0.93643, calculated from NASA's ISCCP program, data collected 1983-2004). So in this instance, he treated the surface as a literal ideal blackbody... emission as though the ambient is 0 K and emissivity of 1.
https://i.imgur.com/8XzwMRQ.png
He claims that objects emit as though they're in a 0 K ambient, and absorb radiation from cooler objects which slows their cooling rate... that's a blatant violation of 2LoT in the Clausius Statement sense:
2LoT (in the Clausius Statement sense... "No process is possible whose sole result is the transfer of heat from a cooler to a hotter body") states that energy cannot flow from a lower to a higher-energy region without external work being done upon the system... not via conduction, not via radiative means, not macroscopically, not at the quantum scale [2], not ever . Do keep in mind the definition of heat: "an energy flux". Thus: "No process is possible whose sole result is an energy flux from a cooler to a hotter body" without external energy doing work upon the system.
Now think about that... free energy is defined as the capacity to do work. If free energy is zero (or negative), no work can be done upon the object in question, so no energy can flow to the object in question. So what he claims would result in a perpetuum mobile of the first kind.
Thinking more... he claims that photons from a cooler object incident upon a warmer object must be absorbed... but it requires energy to perform work to push those lower energy density photons up the energy gradient of the higher energy density object. Again, a perpetuum mobile of the first kind results from his claims. He must either claim energy manifests from nowhere to do the work of pushing those photons against the energy gradient (a violation of 1LoT) or he must claim that 2LoT (in the Clausius Statement sense) can be violated.
Now, onto the topic of the Stefan-Boltzmann equation: The σ T^4 equation is for idealized blackbodies. Stefan and Boltzmann derived ε σ (T_h^4 - T_c^4) A_h to account for real-world objects.
If we assume emissivity = 1 and emission to a 0 K ambient, then we get the equation for an idealized blackbody:
- 1 σ (T_h^4 - 0 K) 1 m^2 = σ T^4
You'll note that Evenminded denies that idealized blackbodies assume emission to a 0 K ambient, despite the mathematical proof being put before him. Real world objects, however, do not assume emission to a 0 K ambient (again, that would violate the fundamental physical laws).
Let's look at the Stefan-Boltzmann equation:
- q = ε σ (T_h^4 - T_c^4) A_h
- q = ε σ ((∂U/∂S)_h^4 - (∂U/∂S)_c^4) A_h
- q = ((U * c/4εσ)_h - (U * c/4εσ)_c) A_h
That seems to be a straightforward connection between temperature and energy density, and the energy density of the emitting particle and the energy density of the surrounding ambient, wouldn't you say? Is that equation not the equation to calculate radiant exitance? Sure it is... and as can be seen, it is the energy density of the source and target which determines the rate of radiant exitance. To say that photons are emitted willy-nilly as though in a 0 K ambient, and warmer (higher energy density) objects absorb radiation from cooler (lower energy density) objects violates 2LoT (or 1LoT if one claims that the energy necessary to do the work of ascending the energy gradient magically pops into existence).
Now again, how is energy going to flow from lower to higher energy density without external energy doing work upon the system? How is a photon to ascend an energy gradient without external energy doing work upon the system to make it so? The answer is: It cannot. That's why, in a cavity at thermodynamic equilibrium, the quantized standing wavemode nodes are always at the cavity walls (which is a prerequisite of the solution), and the photon chemical potential is zero, thus the walls cannot absorb the photons (the photons can do no work upon the walls), nor can the walls emit (the walls can do no work upon each other, nor upon the standing waves).
And this is why Evenminded believes that energy can flow without work being done... because Wikipedia (his main source) has misled him into believing that, by not explicating that σ T^4 is for idealized blackbodies, and ε σ (T_h^4 - T_c^4) A_h is for real-world objects.
I attempted to rectify that in hopes of finally ending his suffering from his misconceptions, but alas, Wikipedia sided with a hobby theory which demonstraby violates the fundamental physical laws. Perhaps Wikipedia should find people more versed in physics and science to review their physics and science pages.
As to the charge of 'repeatedly undoing or reverting the contributions of another editor'... it was I who was the contributor... all Evenminded did was sit there punching the 'Undo' link repeatedly. He 'contributed' nothing.
If you wish to get into the quantum physics of energetic exchange, do let me know. But it doesn't agree with Evenminded's (and by extension, your) stance.

This editor has engaged in a multiple edit wars over the past few months. I am asking for administrative review of the editor. DavidDelaune (talk) 18:57, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
- Note: The reporting user refused to discuss the changes on the article's talk page per consensus, and initiated this "edit war" themselves. Instead of following Wikipedia guidelines, policies, and consensus, the reporting user immediately posted a uw-disruptive3 template on Magnolia677's talk page and filed this report. Upon an attempt on my behalf to discuss the changes and resolve the situation, the reporting user and has now decided to be WP:UNCIVIL towards Magnolia677 and myself on the article's talk page, even after I agreed with them on Magnolia677's talk page. - Adolphus79 (talk) 02:40, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- ResponceI cannot believe what I am reading. This is my first experience in nearly 14 years of being on Wikipedia of the internal politics involved with wikipedia. I cannot believe what I am witnessing. This is a little small town in Louisiana with an article with less than 500 views per month. A NCAA female basketball team head coach that grew up in this town is being labeled as 'non-notable' and TWO WP:TAGTEAM wikipedia editors come out declaring that a female NCAA basketball coaches are not worthy of being mentioned in wikipedia articles. DavidDelaune (talk) 03:29, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- This is a blatantly false claim, nowhere did anyone declare that she was not notable because she was female, nor was there any WP:TAGTEAM involved. As a matter of fact, I have twice now conceded that she does pass WP:NCOLLATH, and you should create an article for her. Please put that WP:STICK down, my only problem is with your incivility and refusal to assume good faith. - Adolphus79 (talk) 03:49, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- I have had ZERO disputes in my 14 years of being a member here on wikipedia. This is my first. I make zero claims as to how this dispute occurred. I am so confused. I've never been in a dispute. Let's allow the administrators to decide how this happened. All I can say is that I tried to introduce a factual encyclopedic entry and encountered a dispute. It appears that you are attempting to make it hard for the administrators to determine the sequence of events. You just said that you "conceded that she does pass WP:NCOLLATH" but how is this possible? You are trying to redefine your edit history. Wow, you are trying to manipulate the sequence of events. Wow, you guys are really good at this. I have already submitted this to /r/NCAAW/ over at reddit and I am in the process of making this a larger media issue. Rather than dispute this in the shadows, let us all find out what the general population thinks about this. You and your cohort have stated multiple times that you do not believe that Kayla Ard is worthy of mention. Let it further be known that gender bias is a huge problem here on wikipedia. I am a just a small voice within a chorus of people that would like to see female athletes recognized. I am a simple editor trying to tell the truth about world events. Kayla Ard grew up in Loranger, Louisiana and she went on to become to become the head coach of the NCAA Utah State Aggies women's basketball team. Whatever happens here today my words are truth and worthy of encyclopedic entry. DavidDelaune (talk) 05:29, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- Well, if you insist on WP:CANVASSING outside help from unexperienced reddit users, then there is nothing more I can do here. Clearly, it's time for me to just WP:LETITGO, and let the admins deal with this. Good luck, and happy editing. - Adolphus79 (talk) 07:25, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

Canvassing for support at Reddit is a truly bad idea and I hope it doesn't continue.

Happy that you have reported it, I am not the expert on Wikipedia usage, however, could you please explain why, when I have provided a long list of verifiable evidence from the Royal Air Force, the Ministry of Defence, the House of Lords and the British Government, what appear to be politically motivated users can constantly delete my sources and replace them with a far left newspaper article, and nothing more, written by someone with zero knowledge of the subject matter ? I would argue, it is they that are being disruptive, they completely ignore the evidence, and simply delete everything, usually within 2 mins of me replacing the sources. You have, in fact, deleted my verifiable sources 7 times today already. Engine850 (talk) 14:35, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Now I'm not the Wiki expert you are, but you and I can both clearly see, there have been a multitude of 'revert rule' violations. You constantly tell me to discuss it, and stop 'reverting' yet the 4 of you are constantly doing just that. There is no discussion, you have zero evidence, I have 4 reliable sources, all clearly stating the same thing, yes, the respray cost £900k, but that no additional funding was required. Try following your own suggestions . . Engine850 (talk) 20:14, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- You are failing to read and/or understand the policy. Edits by different people don't constitute violations of the 3RR. There is one 3RR violation in the links you've provided, and I have already noted it above. I'd advise you to limit yourself to the bare facts of the reverts in this venue and keep wider discussions to the article talk page. Mark83 (talk) 20:31, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

User talk:Blscholljim was blocked from editing 3 days ago. He was involved in a prolong edit war by keep on adding unsourced content and removing sources from the articles (Economy of Karachi, Economy of Lahore & Lahore). He was also warned on his user talk page and was also invited by me to discuss the issue on talk pages of the respective articles. Anyhow, he was blocked for 31 hours. After the block expired, he started using his IP address as a sockpuppetry to do same type of editing. I therefore, requested user EvergreenFir to block the IP and semi-protect the articles. After the semi-protection of articles and block of his IP, now he has started edit warring again from his own user ID. Every diff is mentioned above. In addition to this, with due respect, I also request to semi-protect these three articles for atleast 6 months as 7 days semi-protection is not enough for it. Regards, Innocent Paki (talk) 08:00, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
- Blocked – Indef. Continuation of a prior edit war. These unsourced changes are bordering on vandalism. The user goes from one city to the next, changing GDP numbers by as much as a factor of two.

A ticket #2021021210001638 was opened at the WP response team.
31 sources were supplied in the article, most were secondary, including Ynet, Calcalist and Israel Hayom. It was clearly WP:HOUND. Dgw (talk) 20:00, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- Non-admin comment: I do not see any evidence of edit warring here. The IP editor in question has only made 2 edits, total, with no other editor placing any test/notability/other templates on their talk page, or trying to discuss the changes with them. The first edit to the IP's talk page being a uw-1rr template without any other discussion, as well as opening a report here, seems a little bitey. - Adolphus79 (talk) 23:29, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
- The avoidance of other edits as well as the edit summary: "WTF?!" points out the intention of the anonymous to bite the article as well as its creator.
- {{Uw-1rr}} was put only after the "WTF?!" edit summary.
- I did not find any reason to escalate it to {{Uw-3rr}}.
- The anonymous did not respond the article's talk page nor its talk page. It is not a new user. A new user from Andorra does not put in its first edit, a notability template of a model person from a totally different place. Dgw (talk) 01:52, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- I've seen stranger first edits... and with no edits since, there's no evidence that a uw-test1 or uw-disruptive1 template would not have had the same effect without being as bitey... - Adolphus79 (talk) 03:22, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- Due to what was formerly written, It is definitely not a test nor a disruption. The anonymous is focused only upon this article and its creator. I shall not revert any edit war, but leave it to administrators. If you try to revert the anonymous edit, you will find out that it would be undone promptly. Dgw (talk) 04:25, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it. |
The topic is covered by the Arbitration Committee — CuriousGolden (T·C) 20:03, 12 February 2021 (UTC) Response: From Wikipedia definition of 3RR, "A series of consecutively saved reverting edits by one user, with no intervening edits by another user, counts as one revert". Note that with that definition, I have made 4 series of reverts on this page in total: at 21:37 on 2/10 17:58 on 2/11, 19:22 on 2/12 (counted as 1 revert with the 19:41 on 2/12 revert), and 19:55 2/12. There have been at most two reverts within a 24 hour period, so I have not violated the 3RR rule. My reverts have also been in good faith and well-substantiated. Note especially the last revert undoing where User:CuriousGolden added a completely unsourced and unsubstantiated claim of the town being captured by Armenian forces in 1992, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hadrut&oldid=1006358985, while continuing to push the replacement of "captured" with "recaptured". Achemish (talk) 21:53, 12 February 2021 (UTC) Note: I also wanted to add a very important note, I noticed that User:Solavirum wrote "Back up there; we don't need denialism of atrocities" on one of my reverts in response to me writing "The 193 civilians killed is a made up figure by the Azerbaijani government, there's no real source collaborating it. The town was mostly abandoned by the time the battle happened, just like Hadrut. Expulsion is correct for describing the *forced* displacement of civilians through armed force, even if they left themselves. WP:OTHERSTUFF doesn't apply here, it's a fair comparison". I want to be clear that I in no way intended to engage in denial of atrocities, and fully recognize the suffering of Azerbaijani civilians through instances such as the Khojaly massacre for which the Armenian side is responsible. I am pointing out the specific claim of 193 civilians being killed in the 1992 Capture of Shushi/Shusha is extremely dubious; I have read a lot of related material and this is the first time I have come across this claim. Investigating, I can only find the Azerbaijani government source for this claim with no collaborating evidence, is why I believe it to be a made up figure. Achemish (talk) 22:24, 12 February 2021 (UTC) Additional Response: User: CuriousGolden is the one edit warring: Ok, after going back and reading through the revision history, I want to point out that I think User:CuriousGolden actually might fall under the definition of edit warring here, not the other way around.
Before I had begun editing the article, the wording "capture" had been present in the article as reference to the 2020 capture of the city by Azerbaijani forces since the capturing happened. There was no use of the term "recapture". I added a demographic table and included text referring to this "capture" in the table. CuriousGolden then made the first edit changing the wording to "recapture" here, when also changing the wording of expulsion vs displacement of civilians: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hadrut&type=revision&diff=1006064567&oldid=1006064319. The reason given is "WP:NPOV wording; population left town before the battle", nothing to do with the "capture" vs "recapture" terminology.
I reverted this first edit, providing the reason for both of the changes: "The Azerbaijani population is described as “expelled” from Shushi in the demographic section for the Shushi article, but the population has already left before Armenian forces captured it. Also, Hadrut had not been captured by Azerbaijani forces, recapture is not appropriate here.". CuriousGolden then made the first revert here, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hadrut&type=revision&diff=1006132856&oldid=1006068401, where they said "Rv Azerbaijanis hadn't left Shusha before the battle (hence 193 of them died during it), also WP:OTHERSTUFF", which only addressed the change in wording for the expulsion of civilians, but NOT for the "recaptured" terminology they were trying to introduce.
I revert this edit here, with this reason: "The 193 civilians killed is a made up figure by the Azerbaijani government, there's no real source collaborating it. The town was mostly abandoned by the time the battle happened, just like Hadrut. Expulsion is correct for describing the *forced* displacement of civilians through armed force, even if they left themselves. WP:OTHERSTUFF doesn't apply here, it's a fair comparison". CuriousGolden then made this edit, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hadrut&type=revision&diff=1006358796&oldid=1006352610 replacing "capture" with "recapture" throughout the article, with the explanation " capture -> recapture". Thus, after I had already previously reverted the change in terminology and presented a counter-argument, CuriousGolden twice continued to push this edit without providing a reason/response to my argument.
I revert this new addition once more here, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hadrut&type=revision&diff=1006412284&oldid=1006358985, with the comment "Again, capture is the WP:NPOV appropriate term here, and it is how international media has referred to it. Please take it to the talk page if you disagree and present a coherent argument to the contrary." Note that I have now invited CuriousGolden to discuss this change in the talk page, and have reverted this attempt at introducing the new terminology twice, with an argument each time, while CuriousGolden fails to provide any reason for the attempted change. At this point, user:Solavirum reverts my revert here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hadrut&type=revision&diff=1006416765&oldid=1006415560., with the comment, "Restored revision 1006358985 by CuriousGolden (talk): Be bold, but not reckless. Armenians being the majority in the town doesn't mean that the town was under Armenian military control. Also, don't edit war". Yet, "Be bold, but not reckless" refers to the person pushing the change ; that is not me, that is CuriousGolden is the one violating the Be bold, but not reckless here, by continuing to push this new terminology without providing a single argument to it.
Summary: I am sorry if I am being overly repetitive here, but to summarize, CuriousGolden attempted to introduce this new terminology without a reason and I reverted it multiple times with proper arguments for the term "capture" and invited them to discuss in the talk page. Furthermore, CuriousGolden has attempted to introduce the same new terminology in Shusha as discussed here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Shusha#Capture/Recapture_in_Demographic_Table_and_Elsewhere_in_Article, which has resulted in that page being admin protected due to edit warring. Thus, I find it ridiculous that I am the one being accused of edit warring here. I am not very experienced with Wikipedia yet, but it seems that CuriousGolden is clearly violating the WP:BRD cycle. CuriousGolden was "bold" by introducing the "recaptured" edit. I reverted it with a proper counter-argument. The next step was discuss, which CuriousGolden did NOT do, opting to continue pushing the new change multiple times, without EVER providing a reason. I reverted multiple times, each time providing a reason and inviting the discussion step, but CuriousGolden continued to push the new change. Not only that, but they broke the WP:BRD cycle on Shusha as well for the exact same purpose. Thus, this seems like a pretty clear cut instance of edit warring. I am not familiar with how this arbitration process works, but I would like to report CuriousGolden for edit warring as I have described.

User is warring over news without gaining talk page consent on whether to include a future event. Has passed WP:3RR. WP:NOTNEWS ("news...is not a sufficient basis for inclusion"), WP:CRYSTAL apply for article, WP:CON applies for talk page. User was warned on their own talk page before 3RR violation. Zefr (talk) 00:05, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- Result: User:Yarscat and User:Zefr are both warned. Each one may be blocked if they revert the article again without getting a prior consensus in their favor on the talk page. This is a dispute on whether a planned trial in Azerbaijan is important enough to deserve a paragraph in the article. Both sides have policy arguments they can use, so this is a pure matter of editor consensus. The two of you need to wait for the consensus to be found before reverting again.

I have repeatedly been followed and harassed by this user. He has edit warred with me on Hiraab Imamate page. [153] He followed me on Somalis and literally took out my source without any reason and calls it "unnecessary info". [154] but then he left alone realizing he went too far. I don't know how he's allowed to do this? He once accused me of being a sock puppet but the moderators proved to him I belong to nobody. [155] This is why he has personal issues with me is because he thinks I'm a sock puppet of the user he despises. I've used good faith and tried to talk him out but he keeps following me and harassing me. He's been giving me a hard time on Wikipedia. I'm not the only one who has engaged in an edit war with him. He has engaged with several other users who have warned him to stop edit warring for reverting three times. [156], [157] and me. [158] He has also been warned by the Arbitration for his edit war in Ethiopian–Adal War [159] but sadly he has blanked his page [160]. Just today I contributed to Mogadishu article and added extra additions and because of his personal issues with me, he decided to follow me and remove my addition without any reason. He is even vandalizing the page. In the sub-section, you'll notice the same sentences on the third paragraph in his revision. [161] This user is incredibly disruptive and causing nothing but trouble.
He has been caught lying and claims I copied and pasted a tiny sentence from him just for explaining the definition of nominal which I didn't when because when you look closely I said it differently. [162] & [163] but he uses this as a justification to remove all my other big contributions. He's not even against my sources it's just he's looking for another way to attack me. If you look at the history. I've only reverted twice the other times I was trying to work with him. [164] and [165] but he has broken the rules by reverting against me more than three times. [166] [167] [168] He deserves a block and a warning at best because he's done this more than once when you see the evidence in the first paragraph for reverting against other users three times under 24 hours.
I wish you moderators can see this for yourselves because this behaviour is totally unacceptable. This is clearly Wikipedia:harassment because if you scroll through his history he has been constantly following me. It's very clear he has a personal agenda against me, and he's broken the rules several times. Ayaltimo (talk) 20:33, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Editor has 10k edits, but <10 article Talk discussions in the last 4 years.[177] I did not 3:RR warn on editor's Talk, but did so in passing on article Talk and paired with a ping to which they responded.[178] I am fully aware of WP:BOOMERANG and accept any outcome.
The editor's revert edit summaries are opaque and do not offer a clear content, policy, or citation rationale for removal of the existing "Tours" section which dates to April 2020.[179] My instigation of the article Talk discussion of the "Tours" section included direct references to identical content in similar artist articles and noted the addition of new citations.[180] Editor is very prolific with articles in the music category, in which "Tours" sections are routine content (AC/DC#Tours, Arcade Fire#Tours, etc.) as noted in my article Talk message.
The subsequent article Talk reply remained vague on the rationale, but implies the section would be acceptable only if I created an article for at least one of the tours.[181] However, the vandalism3 warning placed on my Talk instructed me, "It's your choice: you either create an article for at least one of the tours The Cult participated on, or stop adding."[182] which appears to be WP:OWNERSHIP. Note, the relevant WP:NCONCERT guideline states Tours that cannot be sufficiently referenced in secondary sources should be covered in a section on the artist's page rather than creating a dedicated article.
That said, the desired outcome is the Tour content which conforms with both the guideline and cat norms is restored, with the editor engaging in a meaningful, policy-based discussion on the article's Talk for any improvements.UW Dawgs (talk) 02:12, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

I opened up this notice board because i don't think there any resolution that come from it, i did try it with him on a different noticeboard i opened [190] to resolve a matter to avoid an edit war, where he added what i thought was original research but instead of explaining and defending it, he went on a personal rant. Standard thing is to create a personal conflict and throw arround accusations, vitcimizing himself like "stop following me".. "Stop touching my work" Despite the fact that these are pages i have been editing on regularly and are on my watch list and anyone can edit someone elses edit if it's done in good faith.
But only thanks to an uninvolved editor Boynamedsue for stepping into act as a rational civil mediator to all of this, we ended up resolving the matter and him removing the original research he added unto the page.
Afterwards he makes some questionable changes in the mogadishu page. Especially copying my own exact words from a previous talk page discussion onto the article itself like "Only exising in name". [191] [192]. Gave him my explanations for my changes and he ignores it and goes on these personal rants.
I have a feeling this editor is a troll and is being deliberately disruptive, and trying really hard to get into edit wars and to bait other editors like myself into it. He is basically doing WP:BAIT. His language and way of speak is trying to make everything into a personal conflict/beef, then comes at me like a victim 24/7 , mixes inaccurate information and OG on pages to compell me to respond and also then in the next breath is acting as if he is a fan and supporter of mine.
He has previously been reported for edit warring by another user [193] and recieved a warning [194] while dragging other editors into it.

Backstory/History
I have repeatedly been followed and harassed by this user. He has edit warred with me on Hiraab Imamate page. [207] He followed me on Somalis and literally took out my source without any reason and calls it "unnecessary info". [208] but then he left alone realizing he went too far. I don't know how he's allowed to do this? He once accused me of being a sock puppet but the moderators proved to him I belong to nobody. [209] This is why he has personal issues with me is because he thinks I'm a sock puppet of the user he despises. I've used good faith and tried to talk him out but he keeps following me and harassing me. He's been giving me a hard time on Wikipedia. I'm not the only one who has engaged in an edit war with him. He has engaged with several other users who have warned him to stop edit warring for reverting three times. [210], [211] and me. [212] He has also been warned by the Arbitration for his edit war in Ethiopian–Adal War [213] but sadly he has blanked his page [214].
Current issues
Just today I contributed to Mogadishu article and added extra additions and because of his personal issues with me, he decided to follow me and remove my addition without any reason. He is even vandalizing the page. In the sub-section, you'll notice the same sentences on the third paragraph in his revision. [215] This user is incredibly disruptive and causing nothing but trouble.
He has been caught lying and claims I copied and pasted a tiny sentence from him just for explaining the definition of nominal which I didn't when because when you look closely I said it differently. [216] & [217] but he uses this as a justification to remove all my other big contributions. He's not even against my sources it's just he's looking for another way to attack me. If you look at the history. I've only reverted twice the other times I was trying to work with him. [218] and [219] but he has broken the rules by reverting against me more than three times. [220] [221] [222] He deserves a block and a warning at best because he's done this more than once when you see the evidence in the first paragraph for reverting against other users three times under 24 hours.
I wish you moderators can see this for yourselves because this behaviour is totally unacceptable. This is clearly Wikipedia:harassment because if you scroll through his history he has been constantly following me. It's very clear he has a personal agenda against me, and he's broken the rules several times. Ayaltimo (talk) 20:33, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

It is clear the editor has no intention of addressing the problem during discussion. FDW777 (talk) 14:01, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
Editory FDW777 is in fact the one edit warring. He has reverted multiple users work, ignores the talk page were people have tried repeatedly to discuss his poor behaviour with him despite his incivility. We all try so hard with him but really patience is now wearing thin. He is essentially trying to delete sourced material because he doesn't like it for whatever reason possibly because it counters his view of the legislation. He frequently acts like he owns the article PlainAndSimpleTailor (talk) 14:07, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

stop lying just because you don't like something. Can't you do something constructive with your life FDW88 rather than just bulldozing other people's work? Try to be part of the solution rather than part of the problem, I sure you're probably not a bad person at heart, far to arrogant and prideful but have you considered counselling? is this behaviour a result of a lockdown?

The fourth revert came after I reverted this nonsensical removal of sourced content. The user seems to be unhappy that two editors have removed a single sentence of puffery, has taken ownership of the content they added and decided to remove the whole lot. Just, no.

These reverts were made on different days, however each edit removes the exact same cited information, so it could be considered gaming the system. I was restoring the article back to the status quo, while asking Solavirum to discuss any issues he has with the sources on the talk page. Solavirum continues to remove the sources and claim they are unreliable just because they are "Armenian sources", although none of them are listed as perennial sources. In the talk page consensus, two other users opposed Solavirum's edits, however he continues to remove the cited information. --Steverci (talk) 21:31, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- This is Steverci's 3rd report of the same user under 2 months. The edits provided by Steverci above are made on different days, thus not breaking WP:3RR and Solavirum has discussed the edits it on the talk page (Solavirum was the one who opened the discussion to prevent the edit wars), unlike Steverci who hasn't replied at all to Solavirum's latest comments in the talk page, where Solavirum specifically asked Steverci and another user if their edit was okay. What's more shocking is that Steverci themselves have made more reverts than the user they've reported at a grand total of five (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Seems like WP:BOOMERANG here. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 22:00, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Determined edit-warring to post unconstructive forum chat-style griping at Wikipedia talk:No Nazis. They've gone to DRN claiming it's a dispute - it's not, it's an editor behavior issue. However, since I've reverted, I won't take administrative action. Acroterion (talk) 15:18, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
I avoided this noitceboard because there is no ACTIVE edit war. I was trying to post a comment on a Talk page, which was on topic and not "forum-chat griping". While multiple editors, who clearly have a biased POV on the subject, have chosen to revert my comment (more than once), I was the only one trying to restore it, and I stopped. I chose instead to follow normal dispute procedures and gain a wider audience to resolve the dispute: "Possible alternatives to filing here are dispute resolution, or a request for page protection."
It seems the routine resolution here is to block users, and not to discuss things. That's the opposite of what I want and what is the basis of Wikipedia: "Wikipedia is written through collaboration, and assuming that the efforts of others are in good faith is therefore vital."

- My response to that: A volunteer moderator describing a user's contribution to a Talk page as "trolling", when it clearly engages the topic, is not showing good faith. Dismissing the user's contributing as being too combative, when other editors made direct attacks on other users, without any sanction or comment from those involved, shows that this is a biased and partisan one-way standard to censor critiques. As for not using the Talk page, it's kinda hard to use when your comments keep being reverted in one-sided fashion. Please don't volunteer for dispute resolutions unless you are willing to show consideration to all sides.73.159.229.5 (talk) 18:17, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

You may wish to take into account https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Airports/page_content#Airlines_and_destinations
The edit war is substantially about whether routes that Ryanair previously stated would be flown from these 2 airports should continue to be listed.
The argument for continuing to list is from an Armenian News Agency[1] in which the Armenian Civil Aviation Agency says Ryanair had shown intent to resume flights to Armenia (currently suspended). The other argument is that Ryanair on their website (www.ryanair.com) shows no sign of intent to fly to Armenia. On other airport articles, the general arbiter is whether one can state a precise date when flights will start or resume - if one can, then it shows active intent; if no precise date is available, then it's treated as only an aspiration (see guidance note 11 of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Airports/page_content#Airlines_and_destinations). The question is therefore whether the news article provides sufficient evidence, or whether something stronger is needed as a source

Administrator note Casey Hudson and his attack account both now CU blocked (wanted to be sure this wasn't a Joe Job) and also for edit warring, and a username violation on the second account. However, this in no way excuses the behavior of Aloha 27. It is literally impossible for one person to edit war and the article history is perfectly clear that Aloha also edit warred. To be clear, there is no right or wrong in an edit war. Everyone who engages in edit warring is wrong, regardless fo the correctness of their editorial position. I'll leave it to another admin to decide if a block is needed for Aloha as well to drive that point home. Beeblebrox (talk) 02:37, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

Despite multiple explanations, an active talk page discussion and lingering consensus, this person refuses to engage and instead insists on edit warring to restore their preferred narrative despite it violating WP:NPOV, WP:DUE and the consensus on the talk page.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute: Commons:Commons:Deletion requests/File:Birleşik Krallık Osmanlı koloni bayrağı.png
Comments:
Violated 3RR in order to restore a factually inaccurate image pushing a nationalistic narrative. The image is a likely hoax, possibly originating in a Turkish language TV news website. I have nominated the file for deletion at Wikimedia Commons and provided details there. I removed the image from the article, and when the user reverted me I made it clear in my edit summary that I believe it should not be re-added while this process is ongoing as it will mislead readers. At best, this is a case of WP:ADVOCACY. Alternatively, it is a straight up attempt to maintain a WP:HOAX. I issued a warning after their second revert. Jr8825 • Talk 22:36, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- The things you describe are clearly written in the description of the file. First of all, wait for the deletion req's result, after the process is completed, the necessary procedures are already done. Finally "your believes" doesn't matter, history has already been written. Such an icon has been prepared in the past. --𐰇𐱅𐰚𐰤 (talk) 22:45, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- That is untrue. The title of the image (in Turkish) reads "United Kingdom Ottoman colonial flag" and the caption (in Turkish) states "The flag prepared by the United Kingdom for the Istanbul-based Ottoman colony that it planned to establish at the end of World War I". This is almost certainly misinformation, an attempt to trick an audience into believing that something false is real. Edit warring means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. The template I left on your talk page explained this, and yet you continued to revert my edit and violated 3RR. Jr8825 • Talk 22:57, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- I said "This is handkerchiefs (and this flag drawing) distributed by the British military administration (mean official) to the soldiers participating in the Gallipoli Landing." again. But discussion about the file continued on Commons, I'll say something else. Let's talk about the WP:3RR (like me, both of us) and WP:CYCLE (only you) rules you violated? You said "when you have seen that other editors disagree". I don't see editors, I see one (1) editor and this editor trying to remove this file in a hurry before the delete request is completed. The reason is not important but do not pretend that you are doing everything right and the other person is completely wrong. --𐰇𐱅𐰚𐰤 (talk) 23:47, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- I did not violate 3RR. I removed content that failed WP:V, and then reverted your attempt to re-add the image three times (which I wouldn't do lightly) in order to protect Wikipedia's integrity. I then stopped. Because you violated 3RR and reverted a fourth time, the infringing image is still live on the page. Jr8825 • Talk 13:19, 16 February 2021 (UTC) Edit: reworded for clarity.

Comments:
This user reverted edits four times in fewer than 3 hours. The majority of reverts undertaken by this user appear to have been done in order to preserve the use of a deprecated, heavily biased source in the Uyghur genocide article. The other revert re-inserted that Radio Free Asia was U.S. government funded in a spammy way across the article. (On a related note, after engaging in this sort of edit warring, the user chose to open RfC on WP:RSN regarding the reliability of RFA. This is something the user is entitled to do, though the phrasing the user chose in the RfC indicates that they may have also engaged in a POVPUSH in their choice of how to characterize RFA.)
It should also be noted that the reverts came as the page was being substantially modified, so there is uncontested content on the page that does change as the diffs move forward in time. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 05:37, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- This "edit-warring" all took place well over 24 hours before this ANEW report was filed. It seems that MH10 initially was hoping to railroad the discussion at RSN to establish a "consensus" that Radio Free Asia simply "is reliable" in most contexts and does not require in-line attribution, and then once it seemed that the RFC was not going his way ("his way" meaning a WP:SNOW consensus in favour of declaring RFA to be "reliable"; I do not know what the ultimate outcome will be) he decided to tendentiously request that DH790 be blocked for a string of separate edits that arguably only constitute two separate reverts. I would suggest this be closed with a stern warning for the filer and perhaps a slightly less stern warning for the reported user. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 11:53, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
- To respond to Hijiri88, I don't think what is being asserted regarding the discussion at RSN is a reasonable reading of what I am trying to do. I responded after the RfC was created, and it does not really appear like there was ever a chance for a WP:SNOW close, and I have not ever asserted that I was attempting to see a WP:SNOW close, so why assert that I had a secret motive to "railroad" an RfC? I have been engaging with you and others on that page in good faith, and I believe that I have offered substantive, well-sourced responses to engage with you and with other editors.
- That being said, the edit warring noticeboard isn't for content disputes: it's for reporting edit warring, which I did rather soon after the 4 reverts occurred. And, per WP:3RR, we must recall that "
[a]n editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page—whether involving the same or different material—within a 24-hour period. An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert
" (emphases added). I believe that there are four separate edits involving reverts here, which I have listed above. You've stated that"string of separate edits only constitute two separate reverts"
. Would you please elaborate on what you mean by this, and what those two separate reverts are? I would like to better understand where you are coming from. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 05:23, 17 February 2021 (UTC)- What you're doing is called wikilawyering. The conventional meaning of edit-warring is repeatedly reverting back in or out the same content, not making multiple edits that individually count as partial reverts within a specific time-frame, and if any of the above diffs constitute edit-warring ([261][262]), then Horse Eye's Back was edit-warring as well, but you chose to report only the editor you personally disagree with. Moreover, you made the conscious decision not to report Dhawk790 at the time that, you now claim, you believed them to be actively edit-warring, apparently because, at that time (now more than 72 hours ago), you believed that you could sufficiently undermine them through normal content dispute resolution procedures rather than trying to get them blocked for a wikilawyer-y reason. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 01:27, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
- I'm sorry. In this I did not intend to get in an edit war. I made revision that had an edit that had an error in it and twice I tried to correct it (I referred to the AP as the BBC), but that means I did two revisions in a row. An earlier one was because I disagreed with another edit. I discussed the issue with the other editor (see my talk page and the talk page of the Uyghur Genocide page). I promise I won't do anything like that again. Dhawk790 (talk) 13:13, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

The reported user has only made edits at Women in Iran, all of which have been disruptive and violates WP:POV, WP:TENDENTIOUS, WP:WAR and whatnot.

- I fixed the article title to Karan (caste). This is an Indian caste dispute, and as such it falls under both WP:GS/CASTE and WP:ARBIPA. The filer of this report did not include any actual diffs, but history shows that Sangramz has made as many as 13 reverts of the article since 1 February. I am notifying User:Sangramz of this report and hope they will respond. EdJohnston (talk) 19:16, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
- Result: Karan (caste) is being placed under extended confirmed protection per WP:ARBIPA. When admins see an edit war on one of these caste articles, we often wonder if it is a case of caste glorification. It appears that Sangramz favors a source from 1884 by Sourindro Mohan Tagore, link here. EdJohnston (talk) 18:41, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
