User was one of two editors that breached 3RR on this article yesterday, but unlike the other, FeldmarschallGneisenau has continued reverting today (shortly after the 24 hour period following their previous edits expired) despite being strongly advised to stop. Number 57 01:46, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- They are still making reverts, with this edit being in part a repeat of the 22:31, 25 May 2024 one. Number 57 02:59, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Elections isn't a word in the English language unless there are different types of elections happening on the same day, or happening in different states of a federal country. A parliamentary election in a unitary state is only one election. Calling it "elections" is bad grammar.FeldmarschallGneisenau (talk) 04:43, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

- Please see WP:DRN filed yesterday. I make no comment on the discussion here. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 06:33, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
Administrator could indefinitely block me as all of this is mine fault only. I apologize to everyone. Mohammad Umar Ali
- Requesting Daniel Case, Bbb23 and RegentsPark to have a look at this case. PadFoot2008
- I presume I'm being pinged because I declined a request to protect this page recently. Having reviewed the situation in more depth, I strongly suggest to MuA that he involve himself in the DRN that's been opened and for now drop this article like the hot rock he's done so much to make it. Daniel Case (talk) 05:24, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- Since Mohammad Umar Ali has apologized above and there is an open DRN case, I think we can let this go (as long as MuA follows Daniel Case's "hot rock" suggestion above). RegentsPark (comment) 16:32, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- I was frustrated so I apologized, I didn't meant it. This was my original comment [10] I removed it out of frustration as I told before. If you would have looked into details you would have known who was right here and whether consensus is even required in this specific scenario. I also learnt that providing reliable sources are less important for Wikipedia articles and a user needs to have consensus regarding adding sourced claims and unsourced claims and random statements of any other user are considered more reliable. Adding failed verification and Incomplete templates [11] also require consensus wow shocking! This is talk page of the article [12][13] and till now I don't know for what the consensus is required as everything has been well explained by me there by citing sources. Multiple users reverting my edit without any reason just shouting "talk page and consensus" by the way to which I replied each and every time with stating reliable sources doesn't matter but I get reported. It can easily be concluded that if multiple users are reverting my edit and I am reverting theirs (as talk page discussion is over as those users don't have any arguments left) I will be the one who will break 3RR even if I don't want and then I get reported, a good strategy isn't it? These many administrators didn't even notice this which surprised me. I faced multiple harassments by User:Rahio1234 (plz read the info here [14]) who just removed my content and kept quoting the same statement "Please provide WP:RS" doesn't even get warning. Also please close WP:DRN as there is nothing to discuss everything has already been discussed on the article's talk page. If I say Tomorrow is Monday and someone says no you are wrong The next day is Monday, I can't have a discussion on such issue. Lastly, I want any of the administrators to block either me or the user who reported me and disrupted the article. This is not a minor issue, this is a pretty serious one. If the administrators think that I really did any mistake block me please but don't just let the issue go. Mohammad Umar Ali (talk) 17:55, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Not a 3RR report but a slow moving edit war that is a continuation of a 6 May ANEW report for which they were blocked. Not counting the 4 IP reverts before their account was created, they have made this exact revert 8 times with no attempt at discussion. With the exception of their first edit, the editor has never used any talk page of any kind despite a request to do so and continues to edit war to their preferred version. - Aoidh (talk) 18:30, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

The editor has started making a series of edits to the main page on 22 May 2024, some of which I regard as WP:POV. Shows no effort to seek WP:CONSENSUS, no effort to engage on the talk page, or even state any rationales in the edit summaries. It appears that this will go on forever unless the editor is suitably warned. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 10:58, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Blocked – for a period of 24 hours If it were just this, I might have settled for just warning or "no violation".

- Excelsiorsbanjo has been very combative on the talk page, misunderstanding and misrepresenting what constitutes consensus, and generally being unwilling to reconsider their position and edit warring over a long period to enforce their preferred version of the article. —Locke Cole • t • c 16:40, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- Just to add a little more context, in the diffs above they've reverted three different editors: myself, Leif One and an IP 2601:602:cc00:e7d0:ac64:af82:c4a4:bcb5. —Locke Cole • t • c 17:25, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

- @Daniel Case
As the reported user has suggested themselves, we need more formal consensus here on the question of whether the flag is still official or not.
What...? We have a secondary source that states the flag was "decommissioned", there are no sources since then stating the flag is current or in use. There was some detective work being done, but all of that is WP:OR and even if it panned out, isn't something we can use to make an edit here. I'm struggling to understand why protection was used here when there's a clear protracted edit war with Excelsiorsbanjo being the only person to constantly re-add the flag over the objections of multiple editors. This really needs to be a block. —Locke Cole • t • c 05:58, 26 May 2024 (UTC)- I know this edit is 10 weeks old, but I have a lot of respect for that editor and I think there he states the point that does not appear to have been adequately addressed. Daniel Case (talk) 06:02, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- SounderBruce is not Excelsiorsbanjo. It's not clear to me that SounderBruce noticed the article Leif One linked to that stated the old flag had been decommissioned, it feels like that got lost amongst the original research that was going on in droves. The flag is already included later in the article, and if our reliable secondary sources say the flag is decommissioned, there's no need for it to be in the infobox. Certainly no consensus to include it has ever really existed beyond WP:WEAKSILENCE, so little has been proffered to justify a protracted edit war by one single editor. —Locke Cole • t • c 06:17, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Daniel Case I just want to make sure I understand this correctly, so an editor can engage in a protracted edit war for months constituting 12 reverts against three other unique editors, and the behavior is addressed by protecting the article and stating
As the reported user has suggested themselves, we need more formal consensus here on the question of whether the flag is still official or not.
? The "reported user" hasn't suggested that as far as I can tell (beyond bludgeoning the discussion with the claim of a "consensus" that appears to consist of themselves and the uploader who hasn't opined whatsoever in the discussion nor edited the article since adding the image), meanwhile no less than four editors have either rejected the edit this editor is reverting to on the talk page or said they need more sourcing to validate that it is correct. WP:ONUS is unambiguous on this point:The responsibility for achieving consensus for inclusion is on those seeking to include disputed content
. We don't engage in discussion with edit warriors who to date have presented zero sources (Excelsiorsbanjo tried to wave away the discussion initially by stating[t]he local newspaper has plenty on it
) and simply tried to bully their way through the conversation. - Proecting the page is rewarding bad behavior and punishing the good faith discussion that took place on the talk page. —Locke Cole • t • c 17:18, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- The "good faith discussion" on the talk page never once surfaced this much-discussed newspaper report that the flag had been decommissioned. Without that I can't see any basis for removing the flag.
I chose full protection, in the hope that a consensus could be reached if more editors got involved, because the only other option IMO would have to block both EB and you at least from the page for some time because you were both edit warring. Since you have been contributing to Wikipedia almost as long as I have without ever getting blocked, and are a valued member of the community, I thought you might appreciate this.
I see now that judgement was a mistake. So, I will offer you and Excelsiorbanjo a compromise: if you both consent to being blocked from the article and the talk page for a month, I will lift the protection and let other editors deal with the issue. Daniel Case (talk) 17:48, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

I guess this early reply in January is just my imagination? you were both edit warring
My brother in Christ, in the span of seven days I reverted four times. Excelsiorsbanjo reverted six times (against two different editors). I get that invoking WP:BOOMERANG is fun and all, but I warned Excelsiorsbanjo (prior to realizing they'd already been warned five years ago), reverted one final time, and came here after it became clear this was not going to stop. I've provided reasons and sources for my statements, while Excelsiorsbanjo has just tried to wave away any argument against inclusion and remained consistent in claiming that just their side (which *counts on fingers* is one person, Excelsiorsbanjo) has somehow achieved consensus... I've contributed significantly to this project over nearly twenty years. Excelsiorsbanjo has made less than 300 edits and appears to have spent the last five years learning how to not collaborate or understand how this project works. We are not the same.In the meantime I can press the undo button, it's no big deal.
If you can read this in that discussion and take away that Excelsiorsbanjo is somehow a shining example of an editor or even equal to me in any way, then you're high.Only one of us threatened to revert without end here, and it wasn't me. —Locke Cole • t • c 23:17, 26 May 2024 (UTC)- I figured you'd invoke this old brief. It says "commissioners have decided to decommission that version". That only proves that they, at that time, intended to. It does not prove that they actually held the vote that that language suggests would be necessary, and the fact that no one seems to have yet found a record that such a vote was held means we cannot say with certainty that the flag was decommissioned (especially given that it seems, also, that the promised contest for a new flag design was never held, either). To claim those words as incontrovertible proof that the flag was decommissioned is writing a check they can't possibly cash.
It would be like me saying I had decided to block you for edit warring, but without anything in the block log proving that I did. That could not be taken to mean I had blocked you.
Fully protecting a page is never, repeat never, any reflection or judgement on the rightness or wrongness of the version protected. It is a message to the editors involved that they need to cool this down and discuss as they have failed at maintaining the status quo. Daniel Case (talk) 03:57, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Daniel Case
That only proves that they, at that time, intended to.
The text saysdecided to
. It doesn't sayintended to
,planned to
or some variation of that.decided
is thesimple past and past participle of decide
. My understanding is that prior to that flag, the county didn't have any flag whatsoever, so it stands to reason that "no flag" is a possibility. Usually we defer to secondary sources, especially in situations like this where no other sources have been provided to refute the "decommissioned" status. It's kind of baffling to see you wanting something official when we typically avoid official records (just look at how biographies handle birthdates, or how we discourage using press releases for announcements over secondary source coverage of those topics, etc). Regardless, making assumptions about whether they actually decommissioned it or not is original research. You're supplanting what a reliable secondary source says with what you think they meant instead of taking the words plainly. —Locke Cole • t • c 05:10, 27 May 2024 (UTC)- An official record of the vote on the commissioners' website or in an offline archive where it is published and cited to the extent that verification is possible would be, contrary to the popular perception reflected in your post, an acceptable source for this as it would not require interpretation. Per WP:PRIMARY: "A primary source may be used on Wikipedia only to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge." Unfortunately rulemaking by assumption has led to that being interpreted to bar the use of primary sources altogether, which is an unfortunate misunderstanding.
I do have an idea for how we can resolve this to (I hope) everyone's satisfaction. Some people on the talk page have mentioned getting in touch with the county to see if they can find any records regarding the vote on the flag in their archives. I mean, they should have it if it were voted on ... if you keep no other public records of a body's actions on file this long, you keep meeting minutes. Of course I don't know how long they'd be required to keep them, and given Washington's reputation for having such loophole-ridden sunshine laws, I might not be optimistic.
Now, it's one thing if a bunch of Wikipedia editors ask for this. It's another if the local media does—it would turn up the heat on the people at the archives. Not that I think they'd be delaying on purpose or anything, but knowing how this works I can tell you that when they know the media's making the request (OK, I know, in a sense we are the media, but not like, say, the Spokesman-Review is) it gets a higher priority.
So, we should contact the S-R and suggest this as a story they should assign someone to cover. It wouldn't require many resources on their part (a not-inconsiderable issue given the current besieged state of local newspapers) and I can't imagine any way it could be argued that this would not be a story, especially given the recent effort to redesign the city's flag.
I am willing to reach out to the newspaper myself if desired, given my own distant-past experience in journalism. The end product of all this would be an unimpeachably reliable secondary source on this (and maybe the embarrassed county commissioners hastily voting to decommission the flag if it were found that they hadn't already). And it might make a good Signpost story, too. Daniel Case (talk) 20:11, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Daniel Case I get the argument around some forms of primary sources, but this is precisely why we use secondary sources: you're debating whether or not the reliable secondary source was accurate in stating the flag was decommissioned. If we had county commissioner minutes stating it was decommissioned, but then someone said it was still in use in Olympia, we'd have people going back and forth about that.
- I did start a straw poll on the talk page, debated turning it into an RFC, but if you wish to pursue getting them to state something publicly about it, I'm all for that as well. FWIW, I did some archive.org spelunking on prior versions of spokanecounty.org and it appears they had minutes/agendas but because the current live-site only goes back to 2012-2013, it's really hard to search (at least that I've found so far) to see if maybe this hasn't actually already been publicly stated from a primary source. —Locke Cole • t • c 23:45, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Daniel CaseThe Spokane County flag is a relic of the past. The documentation of its origin and its abandonment are on the Talk page. The flag was a result of the fervor around the Centennial celebration of the state. Every county in the state designed a flag. Concerning the origin of the flag, of that too there is no legal record. The design contest, statewide, was sponsored by a tent and awning company. To quibble points, the is no legal origin for the flags existence that has been found, as there is no legal source for its decommissioning, only the published article where a county official states it will be decommissioned. The fact that the flag was a part of history is still represented on the Wikipedia page. The recognition does not belong in the infobox, and it is cited further down in a section about the history. I have no objection to the page being locked from editing, but please lock it so that it is not at the top of the page. The County only uses a logo, not a flag, I asked the office personally. The fact that a flag ever existed is an obscure fact that nearly everyone is not aware of. I would estimate that 99.9999% of people do not know the flag ever existed. Please relegate the flag to history, it is not a current symbol of Spokane County. Leif One (talk) 19:39, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- I do not consider one short unsigned newspaper article in which county commissioners promise to decommission the flag and sponsor a contest to create a new one to sufficiently establish that the flag was either a) decommissioned or b) never commissioned. You may want it to, but your emotional pleading here has little to do with policy. Daniel Case (talk) 03:03, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

The initial 3RR breach was corrected after I pointed this out, so my view is there is not a 3RR breach. However, to return to the edit warring as soon as the time expired, when Jack has started an RfC on the issue, is still classic edit warring. They persistently claim that their wording has a consensus, but that is clearly not the case in the previous discussion, nor (yet) in the RfC. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 06:23, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- Please note the response to my notice on Jack's talk page. As Jack is unable to post here, it would only be fair to take account of their response there.

The IP editor has been edit-warring about this even though there is an ongoing discussion in Talk:Cushitic-speaking peoples about their proposed additions. They also accuse other editors who disagree with their POV of Anti-Somali sentiment which reinforces the impression that they are not willing to contribute in a collaborative way. Austronesier (talk) 11:31, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
I agree that some level of administrative action is needed: probably a page ban. The back-&-forths have been going on for twelve days now. The IP editor has only engaged others on the Talk page when their edits have been reverted, and has been unwilling to accept that others are engaging in good faith. At this point, I think a resolution through discussion is unlikely. Pathawi (talk) 13:38, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- Blocked – for a period of one month from the article. Since they had not been alerted to it being in a contentious topic area (HORN), I have also done that as well as put a CTOPS notice on the article talk page. For these reasons this will be a regular administrative action that can be appealed through the usual process and reversed by any other admin. Should this user attempt to evade this block, or continue this behavior after it expires, CTOPS should be invoked. Daniel Case (talk) 18:54, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- This is so absurd it’s almost funny. The article is about Cushitic ethnic groups and where they reside. By going through the conversations on the talkpage you’ll see it, even the edit summaries.

Comments:
I am new to trying to contribute to Wikipedia discussions and am finding it very confusing. I noticed today an article ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There_was_no_such_thing_as_Palestinians ) that has it's main article page locked, being a contentious topic, but which only presents a narrow and heavily biased and misleading view, without respect for the requirement to maintain a neutral point of view. I am unaware as a new contributor to what process might normally be involved in seeking to redress issues on Wikipedia, especially given that the main page is locked, but noticing a Talk page, it seemed the appropriate location to make a request for someone to edit the article, and I was not the first to comment on that Talk page noticing a lack of neutrality and the presence of a strong bias in the article. I commented on the Talk page attempting to raise my concern with the lack of a NPOV, with specifics. User IOHANNVSVERVS deleted my comment. I tried to put my request to correct the lack of NPOV back on the Talk page and added the comment explaining why saying: "The request on the Talk page associated with this article, seeking to address the required Neutral Point of View criteria, was was deleted by someone. Since the issue of lack of neutrality has not been addressed the request for correction is being un-deleted. undo Tag: Reverted". Afterwards I also saw a comment on the Talk page where someone mentioned an important and missing quotation which was responded to as though it wasn't relevant so I commented with the full quotation and a link to its original source, discussed its relevance to the article and contributed further examples of quotations that might address the bias of the article and lend it more fairness and neutrality. The result was to have my comment on that Talk discussion also deleted by IOHANNVSVERVS who then deleted/reverted my comments on the Talk page twice more in the span of a couple of hours, despite my asking them to stop doing so, as well as sending them the edit warring warning on their user talk page. I also noticed in looking at the user talk page of IOHANNVSVERVS that there are several other instances where issues arose with this user contributing to anti-Israel and anti-Jewish discussions specifically, which begins to look like a pattern of using Wikipedia as a weaponized propaganda platform. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/IOHANNVSVERVS And additionally that the history on this user's talk page shows several other warnings about revisions. Before finishing trying to enter this complaint my edit from the Talk page was again reverted. The comment on the reversion suggests that it's not edit warring because as a new user I am only allowed to make edit requests, but that is exactly what my comment was that has now been deleted 4 times. I was requesting edit to address the lack of a neutral point of view. This Wikipedia article is serving as propaganda that shows only one point of view and both the absence of differing views and contempt for disagreement.
- Did you read the edit summaries by IOHANNVSVERVS, Sean.hoyland, and LilianaUwU, all of whom reverted you? They explained it quite clearly, and there is a note on the talk page further explaining it: this article is under arbitration enforcement as it's a contentious topic. Consequently you need to be extended-confirmed to make talk page comments (or edit the article). Please see the notice on the talk page for more information. — Czello (music) 08:14, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

The player has won the Conference Finals MVP and award should be included in Career Awards and Achievements part. I checked the talk page and consensus been saying yes it should be included too. Jaylen Brown has already that award in their bio too.

User has continually been reverting removal of flags in navboxes (which go against MOS:FLAG) by myself and others on this and other pages, pretty much the only thing they have done since they joined. --woodensuperman 14:02, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Look. Wooden Superman you have absolutely no right to remove the flags on Foreign relations template. The flags help people identify a specific country. Mr. WoodenSuperman has no clue what he is talking about. Period. YZDMAC (talk) 14:24, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Per MOS:WORDPRECEDENCE, the countries are identified by the name of the country, not the flag. --woodensuperman 14:27, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- That doesn’t explain why they are on Foreign relations templates. On Foreign relations they are easy to identify. So you don’t know what you are talking about Wooden Superman. That’s it for now. YZDMAC (talk) 14:31, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- They shouldn't be in navboxes, per MOS:FLAG, WP:NAVDECOR, etc., etc. That is why myself and other editors have removed them. --woodensuperman 14:33, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

FeldmarschallGneisenau has already been reported and suspended for a week for edit-warring in this article. The target of the edit-warring is the vote figures; he removed them from the Infobox persistently, citing the fact they exceeded the adult population of Poland as a reason, while ignoring the fact that the electoral system used at the time is multiple non-transferable vote, a system which allowed a voter to have more than one vote.
- Revision as of 01:37, May 26, 2024, before the suspension, where the vote figures were removed from the infobox
- Revision as of 13:23, June 3, 2024, after the suspension, where the vote figures were removed from the infobox
Comments:
The edit war was over the formatting of the lede. I conceded that. My block over that has expired. It did not refer to reverting your changes in the infobox. And the WP is clear: any unsourced statements may be removed by editors at will. I am following Wikipedia Policy.FeldmarschallGneisenau (talk) 14:07, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Out of the seven reverts listed in the initial report, only one (#6) concerned the lede. The remaining six (#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, and #7) concerned vote figures in the infobox. Glide08 (talk) 14:16, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

"List of iPhone models" uses [149] (official Apple information) to indicate the specific iPhone models that have been designated as "vintage" or "obsolete" by Apple, and is indicated as such on the article. Despite this official information, User:202.166.137.148 continuously reverts changes made by various users, claiming that it is incorrect, despite being proven wrong with a simple check of the list on [150].

- I don't think this is correct and it's not about favoring one person or the other. The 'last stable version' had previous complaints of being written by PR Agents, and excluded many widely reported facts which are relevant for an encyclopedia.

- Both editors have significant problems, Rahio1234 with competence and Ergzay with a campaign to get Rahio1234 blocked that includes repeated personal attacks. I advised Ergzay a while ago that they need to put their complaints about Rahio1234 in the proper context in the appropriate venue, which would be WP:ANI. Instead,Ergzay is using backdoors to do so. Meanwhile, the nomination of the draft by Rahio1234 for lack of notability is one more indication that they are likely not a net asset to the project.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:43, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- User:Bbb23 - I agree about User:Rahio1234 but will add a comment. Nominating drafts at MFD for lack of notability is a relatively common error that appears to indicate an inexperienced reviewer who has more enthusiasm than knowledge or common sense. I asked User:Rahio1234 why they nominated the draft, because I was wondering if better instructions for reviewers are needed to avoid this waste of time at MFD. User:Ergzay tried to answer my question, attacking Rahio1234, and was reverted twice. I will be looking for a report at WP:ANI, and will also be expecting more misguided nominations to delete drafts, and asking the nominators why they are making the nominations. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:48, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

- User:Ergzay. I am not asking you to create a report anywhere. Either report Rahio1234 at WP:ANI, or don't report Rahio1234. When I look at WP:ANI, one of the things that I will look for, if I remember, will be a report about Rahio1234. Either report Rahio1234 at WP:ANI, or don't report them.

Although this is an edit war involving two different IP editors on one side (188.230.214.119 and 46.123.248.0/21), this editor focusses on User:188.230.214.119. The other IP editor, 46.123.248.0/21 has at least joined the discussion on the talk page, and hasn't made any edits since 23:19, 7 June 2024 (UTC). User:188.230.214.119 on the other hand, has been constantly restoring their edit on the article without discussion on the talk page, even despite my warning on their user talk page.

Comments:
Bringing this here on the recommendation of an administrator on Discord, because I've gotten tired of trying to deal with this for the past few months now.
I and several other editors from WP:WikiProject Voting Systems have been trying to expand 2022 Alaska's at-large congressional district special election with additional information regarding the new electoral system in use there, including information regarding the election as a participation and majoritarian failure. So far, we've provided citations to media sources discussing these behaviors as well as scholarly articles confirming them. In doing so, we've been consistently reverted by User:Stormy160, who has at various points on the talk claimed they're fine with the information being included, but seems to consistently revert any that includes mention of the majoritarian failure in the race. The contributions are consistently well-sourced and directly reflect the comments of experts in the field of social choice theory, but are reverted regardless of phrasing.
The 3 diffs I gave are chosen as examples. There have been many, many more (which you can find on the history page).
Closed Limelike Curves (talk) 02:22, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
I would like to point out a few things here. First, I have consistently attempted to incorporate things from the talk page into the article, and the edits have evolved over time. So I would hardly describe that as "reverting" because the intention has always been to constructively build off of the last edit. You can see that over time what I have edited has changed significantly, as I have tried to both compromise and improve the language based on the discussion, as well as keep the lede from getting too long. Second, majoritarian failure is mentioned in the current version, "They cited Begich's elimination as an example of a center squeeze, a scenario in which the candidate closest to the center of public opinion is eliminated due to failing to receive enough first choice votes.[13][14][15] More voters ranked Begich above Peltola, but Palin played the role of spoiler by knocking Begich out of contention in the first round of the run-off." And third, there's a difference between expanding information and providing an opinion framed as a fact, as I have said many times. Please look at our discussion and you'll see that I've said over and over that discussing these concepts is good as long as it is done in a way that isn't framing instant runoff voting in an overtly negative (or positive, for that matter) way. Throughout I have tried to incorporate additional information this user has provided (I'm not sure where "several other users" comes from, there was one other at one point), only to get pushback. I've tried my best to be constructive and have not just been reverting. And finally, providing an alternative set of results for the election is just a "what if" and not factual, plus to put them in the "results" section suggests they are official. There is no ill will here. Stormy160 (talk) 02:51, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Declined It seems that at least one other user agrees with Stormy here, and thus they are not clearly editing against a consensus. But at the same time dismissing the graf about possible alternative outcomes as "speculation" omits the fact that it's sourced speculation, which of course does not settle the argument about whether to include it but means those opposing that have to make a case on other grounds.
The editors could certainly bring in more editors to the discussion to form a stronger consensus. But it really seems to me like this is the wrong article for this. Lengthy discussions of the what-ifs of the election and the merits or lack thereof of various voting systems as reflected here might best be moved to the articles about the various voting systems, or perhaps Elections in Alaska.

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: I have not personally, admittedly, but multiple other WikiProject Ice Hockey editors who I've collaborated with (on the article, and in combatting the reverts) have on the user's talk page. None have seemingly gotten through to the editor in question, who continues to insist we're in the wrong.
Diff of ANEW notice posted to user's talk page: Notified at time of report.
Comments:
Effectively doing this on behalf of the multiple editors, including myself, who've had to deal with this at Utah NHL team. While the content restored has not been identical every time, the editor in question has continuously removed information denoting the team as an expansion (including reliable sources), and replaced it with claims that it's a relocation, contrary to sources. They've done the same at National Hockey League, as seen here, and their combative approach at their talk page doesn't seem to indicate they'll stop soon. They're also more than likely the same user as this IP and this IP, who were restoring/removing the same content prior to CanadianEditor1995 resgistering (which would mean we're at seven reverts here). Somewhat amusingly, they're also claiming that as a Canadian, they simply know more about the sport than we do.
Please do let me know if I'm out of line here, due to not personally participating on the talk page; I'll hand this off to one of the multiple editors who've participated there, if need be. The Kip (contribs) 04:12, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- Courtesy tagging @Deadman137, @HappyBoi3892, and @Ravenswing as others who've dealt with the user in question. The Kip (contribs) 04:15, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- I certainly don't think you're out of line. Given his incessant edit warring, his combative attitude, his utter refusal to accept that content disputes are settled by consensus, and that he has managed the startling feat of having almost every single one of his mainspace edits to date reverted -- over a dozen different articles -- CanadianEditor1995 is demonstrating that he's a poor fit for Wikipedia. Were this ANI, I'd already be advocating an indef. Ravenswing 06:26, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- I'll second what Ravenswing said. This is an editor that clearly struggles with WP:DROPTHESTICK. An indefinite block should be considered as well as an indefinite ice hockey topic ban because they are clearly here to only push their viewpoint in spite of contradictory evidence to their views. These issues are clearly demonstrated on the Utah NHL team and CanadianEditor1995 talk pages. Deadman137 (talk) 10:43, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- I’m not one of the tagged individuals, but I’ve reverted some of this individual's edits as well (both to the Utah NHL Team article and the National Hockey League article, where he’s done the same thing), along with extremely similar edits he’s made under other usernames and IP addresses. I strongly encourage the reviewing administrator(s) to look at CanadianEdtior1995's talk page and at the abrasive and insulting comments he leaves when anyone questions him. I happen to agree with CanadianEditor1995 that the NHL's approach to this issue is a little bit silly, but that would be a WP:IDONTLIKEIT approach. The NHL has definitively expressed its view on the status of the Utah and Arizona franchises. That settles the matter regardless of what individual Wikipedia editors might prefer. 1995hoo (talk) 12:20, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

I recall there was a sockpuppet investigation involving Joseph507357 and some IPs that you yourself closed for insufficient evidence. There was another investigation connecting CanadianEditor1995 and some IPs; User:Sir Sputnik closed that one because an unregistered user creating an account isn’t a sockpuppet violation. I strongly suspect, but cannot prove and thus have not requested an investigation, that CanadianEditor1995 and Joseph507357 are also the same person, given the nearly identical edits regarding the Arizona/Utah hockey issue and the extremely abrasive and confrontational approach to anyone who disagrees. (I can’t say I ever recall anyone else just flat-out deleting my comments from an article talk page. A user talk page, sure. That’s at the user's discretion. But not on an article talk page.)

- Nothing else to do in the hotel room early in the morning. I can’t turn on the TV while my wife's still in bed. But I actually had a thought while in the shower just now: Joseph507357 has been strikingly silent since CanadianEditor1995 appeared on the scene. If the former now comes back to life, that fact might be the missing link. Of course, I suppose by saying that here I might be giving said user(s) motivation to try something else! 1995hoo (talk) 13:14, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

This appears to be a single-purpose account recently created to sabotage this particular article judging by their edit history. Partly due to their edit warring [1][2] there last month the page was protected and now they're back at it despite several warnings. Despite having been explained to them by another user last month that consensus wasn't required to add content, they've now used the same excuse "no consensus" to revert my content in violation of WP:DRNC. They admitted this was wrong, but cited another policy based on what they "feel" to revert once again without giving any substantive explanation. Looks like a case of WP:NOTHERE that won't stop without admin intervention. I have a reasonable suspicion from similar behavioral pattern this user could be potentially coordinating off-Wiki with a now topic banned user but I guess this is not the place for that report.---Petextrodon (talk) 12:03, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Response: I am sorry if I did break any rules, per the warning given by Petextrodon I thought the max number of reverts were 3 within a 24 hour period and that is why I did the fourth today since I thought it was over a 24 hours. I agree that I did get carried away on the 10th June, shouldn't have done that. However, I only did three reverts and just left. I saw Petextrodon's warning after that. However, I don't understand how his reverts are OK [206], an experienced editor as he, should have not kept on reverting and engage in the talk page, rather than revert and then engage in the talk page. His comments I found uncivil, and I responded to his accusation [207]. Kalanishashika (talk) 15:43, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Kalanishashika: "I thought the max number of reverts were 3 within a 24 hour period and that is why I did the fourth today since I thought it was over a 24 hours."
- I believe that is called "gaming the system" which is forbidden here. My reverts were within the 3RR limits and I did them with good justifications since you provided non-policy reasons and also per WP:DRNC.---Petextrodon (talk) 15:48, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Petextrodon, "gaming the system" is that a new accusation against me? I explained my reasons in the talk page. Kalanishashika (talk) 16:00, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- I was just explaining a Wiki policy to you. It's stated at the top of this very page:
- "Any appearance of gaming the system by reverting a fourth time just outside the 24-hour slot is likely to be treated as a 3RR violation."---Petextrodon (talk) 16:02, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Petextrodon, I disagree. I did not intend to game the system. However, what I say doesn't seems to hold ground. Seems you have already found me guilty of it, it's up to you to then pass judgement. Kalanishashika (talk) 16:08, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Gaming the system is, in this case, sort of a strict liability accusation, as the quoted policy states. Your explanation above basically admits to it. You have not offered an explanation that comes under the permitted exceptions to 3RR. Daniel Case (talk) 19:23, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

- @Petextrodon, "gaming the system" is that a new accusation against me? I explained my reasons in the talk page. Kalanishashika (talk) 16:00, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Warned @Petextrodon and Kalanishashika: Please take this as a warning that you are both edit warring, and continuing to edit war will likely result in blocks for one or both editors. Petextrodon, if you're looking for a policy-based reason for the revert of the content you're adding, then see WP:ONUS; it is your responsibility to achieve consensus for disputed content that you wish to add. - Aoidh (talk) 16:33, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Understood. I'm open to discussion as you can tell by the talk page. What I expect from the other user is substantive explanation than simply throwing bunch of rules at me without any details.---Petextrodon (talk) 16:39, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Aoidh By the way, is it not the case if only one user is disputing a particular content, "the existing text ordinarily remains in place during a discussion and commonly prevails if the discussion fails to reach consensus," as per WP:DRNC?---Petextrodon (talk) 16:59, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Not if you just added it, no. That is not the WP:STATUSQUO version and you should not have reverted it once it was known that it was disputed. I don't agree with your assessment of the talk page discussion; your talk page behavior there is less than ideal, which includes the unsubstantiated allegations of personal behavior. They have given a valid reason why it doesn't belong, you have not provided any explanation of why you believe it does other than demanding an explanation or for policy links. You are required to explain why it should be added to the article, not the other way around. If you are able to provide an explanation as to why the content should be added to the article, I would suggest making an attempt to do so and if there's no agreement after that, both of you should look into WP:3O. - Aoidh (talk) 21:31, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- By "valid reason" do you mean "The sources you have cited does not mention any reference to genocide," or "I feel the correct policy would be WP:NOTEVERYTHING"?
- You say I did not give any explanation but I did:
- "That's the overview of the issue. Not every single source needs to mention genocide. Analyses of genocide will be provided shortly."
- The other user just repeated themself and made an incorrect statement: "Details are in the main article" (They aren't. Those details are ones I wrote specifically for this article). A dialogue is a two-way street. For me to better understand where the other side is coming from, they also need to make effort to communicate their disagreement effectively.---Petextrodon (talk) 22:16, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Disagreeing with an explanation does not mean no explanation was given.
Not every single source needs to mention genocide
is not an explanation of why the content does belong so much as it is a dismissal of their comment, warranted or not. - Aoidh (talk) 01:50, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

- @Aoidh, warning accepted, will avoid it in the future. This is becoming very difficult, another user has restored the newly added content that is in dispute stating "Revert to stable version" and requested to " please get consensus before adding or removing content". Is this not a WP:BRD violation? Kalanishashika (talk) 06:29, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Understood. I'm open to discussion as you can tell by the talk page. What I expect from the other user is substantive explanation than simply throwing bunch of rules at me without any details.---Petextrodon (talk) 16:39, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Slow-motion edit warring over the course of months. They have communicated precisely zero, despite being approached on their talk page, as well as a full-blown RFC taking place on the article talk page with clear consensus against their preferred version. Remsense诉 07:41, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Remsense, is is practically impossible to take a fair action here without applying the same sanction to KaiWoodBCB and you. The RfC is still open, you're not in a position to close it and the edits are unlikely to be "vandalism". It may be reasonable to remove the block from your account as soon as the RfC is closed in clear favor of your preferred revision, but edit warring is disruptive even if you are right, so please just let someone else perform the revert in such situations. If it's as clear as you apparently thought when reverting, then there was no need for you to revert and someone else looking at the situation would have done it sooner or later. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 09:13, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not in a position to close the RfC, but I do not think it is fair to ignore its present state either. Failing that, the present version is what was there when the RfC started—surely the distinction between changing away from the live version currently subject to an RfC versus changing back is one every good-faith editor would respect? That is the only reason I felt it was acceptable to revert—if the live version had been swapped, I would not have touched it during this time. I do not think "let someone else perform the revert" is justified—if tag-team edit warring is wrong, which it is, then this isn't automatically wrong for the same reason. Remsense诉 09:25, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- My "let someone else" isn't meant in an active way with you asking for it to happen. It just happens by itself in clear cases, and an uninvolved editor stumbling upon a vandalized page and restoring it is not tag-teaming. If this scenario sounds unlikely to happen, the case wasn't as clear as a "vandalism" revert during a dispute after an edit warring block (courtesy ping Daniel Case) should be.
- There is no policy-/guideline-based reason to prefer a status quo or to distinguish between "changing away" and "changing back" during a discussion strongly enough to justify edit warring by the disputants, no. Especially not one that automatically makes someone disruptively disagreeing a vandal. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 09:42, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
There is no policy-/guideline-based reason to prefer a "status quo" or to distinguish between "changing away" and "changing back" during a discussion
- I really thought that there was a policy point specifically about this, and it's my fault for having misunderstood what I previously read and not triple-checking. If I had properly realized this, I wouldn't have continued in this way. It seems ridiculous to ask you to remove the block (with theirs) based on that, given I'm not interested in editing the content in question until the RfC finishes regardless, but I'm going to struggle editing in other areas without TWL access. Remsense诉 09:55, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Not ridiculous, Remsense. Actually, the block inadvertently affecting the work on other articles, the explanation of a common misunderstanding and the lack of interest in continuing to edit the article anyway are all three good arguments for removing the partial block. I'll do so now, and while this isn't a very strict formal requirement (we haven't agreed on a conditional unblock yet), I do take you at your word regarding the lack of interest. Please do not continue editing the article – ideally at all – until the RfC is closed. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 10:23, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Comments:
- Please see previous discussion, which I've included diffs from that report here for additional context. Excelsiorsbanjo is borderline WP:NOTHERE at this point, refusing to discuss their edits on the talk page, and ignoring the straw poll completely (which is unanimous at this point). They've made the statement that they will continue to revert without end (
In the meantime I can press the undo button, it's no big deal
). —Locke Cole • t • c 03:53, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- If an admin is waiting for Excelsiorsbanjo to reply here, based on the prior report and the fact that they didn't reply to it at all, it should be clear there's no interest in addressing their conduct, just being disruptive. They've already removed the ANEW notice from their talk page with the edit summary
delete noise
which appears to be their default response to things they don't like here. —Locke Cole • t • c 19:13, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Pblocked from the article for 6 months. They clearly don't want to follow consensus, so they can use the talk page instead. Black Kite (talk) 19:28, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Black Kite Given the demonstrated recalcitrance (
See you all in six months. Wikipedia, always good for a laugh.

Like, that is elementary. I know you haven't read it. It's obvious. Anyway the lesson I'm learning here is whine to admins over and over and ignore consensus until some foolish admin who can't or won't read just knee-jerk does what I want. But I already knew that was how Wikipedia worked, which is exactly why I have done nothing but revert edits on this matter. Talking to you people is an absolute waste of time. Excelsiorsbanjo (talk) 19:14, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Based on the continued edit warring on this page, while this solves it temporarily (not in the way I would have liked when I handled a similar complaint a couple of weeks ago), I will be putting a CTOPS notice on the talk page per CT/CID since this clearly falls under that, if and when this sort of dispute resumes. Daniel Case (talk) 19:28, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Considering there's literally nobody else reverting to add this back in, I don't expect it to continue unless the underlying behavior doesn't change. Regardless, I also placed a notification about CT/CID on Excelsiorsbanjo's talk page. Like every other policy-based communication they've received, I expect this to also be considered

- They can certainly delete the CTOPS notice; it's not one of the things WP:BLANKING forbids users from removing from their talk pages. They cannot say they didn't read it, though.
- And yes, one of these days I am going to email the Spokesman-Review to suggest this story. Daniel Case (talk) 18:16, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

- Could you give me links to Eb's statements? ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 23:57, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- They've made 354 edits, it shouldn't be hard to look through their recent contribution history if you need diff links.
- But take your pick, their comments here and their comments at Talk:Spokane County, Washington#Spokane_County_Flag? (where their first reply included
The local newspaper has plenty on it [the flag]
without providing any actual links/sources, then a LOT of spelunking by @Leif One and @JT Ramsey, then EB (in their first reply since their initial claim of "plenty" of sources) claims Leif isignoring responses made
(which as this is the very next response by EB since their first response, what was Leif ignoring?), then continues by sayingThis does not give the appearance of good faith editing. Anyway, you're outnumbered. There are paths forward for your cause, but I've personally no interest in helping you find them. At the moment, consensus on Wikipedia is that the flag should remain on the page as is. Additionally, at the moment, to anyone concerned with reality, the flag should remain on the page as is. Catch you later
. So that's a lot, but basically claiming Leif is not editing in good faith while Leif is the only one who actually appeared to make any effort to find sources (EB just waved it away earlier with the "local newspaper has plenty on it"), stating Leif is "outnumbered" (which is a strange claim considering only EB so far had shown any desire to keep the flag), generally being unhelpful with the "paths forward" statement (while also hinting at some bias in their behavior), and then claiming consensus (without citing any prior discussion to demonstrate this). Finally EB ends with what appears to be their personal opinion ("concerned with reality"). - And then just keep reading their replies in that thread, they nearly bludgeon the conversation with their false claims of "consensus" (without ever really demonstrating such consensus exists), and edit war on the basis of those claims (see the 16 diffs linked at the top of this report spread out over many months). And they appear to just plan to wait out the clock on their page block and begin again from their comments directly above (
I don't mind running afoul of silly admins on Wikipedia
). They've made 354 edits over seven years, that's about 51 edits a year on average. Their 16 reverts above account for nearly 5% of their total edit history. Being confidently wrong (about consensus, edit warring, the sources, etc) is never a good look, and doubling down on it even less so... —Locke Cole • t • c 18:10, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- Could you give me links to Eb's statements? ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 23:57, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- No objection. I've encouraged Eb to do research, find facts, but they have not. I welcome any and all facts about this interesting, trivial flag in Spokane's past. Clearly it should not be forgotten, but also, it is not a flag that Spokane embraced or uses today. It is a documented relic of the past. Leif One (talk) 02:24, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Comments:
This editor persistently refuses to follow the discussion process and constantly reverts their additions despite opposition, even when confronted with evidence presented by multiple editors. Despite ongoing discussion, they restored their preferred bold alterations just outside the 24 hour window. On the same page back in March, they engaged in the same refusal to accede to discussion (even accusing an appeal to the relevant WikiProject for a third opinion to be forum shopping). Additionally, please see their talk page history for recently deleted personal attacks and aspersions. Pbritti (talk) 02:02, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
- Please see March's ANI discussion for prior history of edit warring. Also note that this is a recently unblocked sockpuppet of another account that had been blocked three times for edit warring. ~ Pbritti (talk) 02:08, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
- I must totally disagree with this false allegation put forward by the editor recently involved in disputes with me. I have not been edit warring here. As you can see, I have neither reverted more than three times and the edits that I have done clearly did not break the 3RR rule. I am totally aware this must have been avoided as well but I mentioned this to clarify that I never intended in editing-warring in the first place.
- Actually I am the one who have originally opened the discussions in the talk page.[215] I have shared multiple sources to support my edits but the user is neither willing to assess the sources nor trying to create a dispute resolution. In such a condition, I restored the status quo ante.[216] The user meanwhile was trying to add their own preferred version disregarding even the status quo ante.[217]
- Logosx127 (talk) 02:11, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
- You regularly engage in tendentious editing, game the system, and wikilawyering. Back in the ANI, everyone involved noted how unwilling you were to concede to consensus or permit discussion. You've had enough rope. ~ Pbritti (talk) 02:14, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
I would also like to clarify that I was the one who initially wanted the administrators' intervention in this matter.[218] As soon as I clarified it, Pbritti maliciously added this complaint here. I have often had disputes with the same user on this and many other articles and I have so far taken the position of accepting the general consensus on all of these issues. Also remember that not all consensus has been against me, as this user's comments falsely suggest, many have been against this user. I am sure that this user is gaining an unfair advantage by referring disputes to certain WikiProjects and doing the entire discuss there. I believe these are attempts of forum shopping were they can gather support from like minded editors instead of neutral ones. I opposed it only because I already have this one complaint.Logosx127 (talk) 02:23, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
Meanwhile Pbritti was repeatedly trying to disregard and manipulate the sources I provided in the talk page.[219][220][221][222] I can point that this behavior of the user has been the main reason why this dispute has gone on so long, and why I have had disputes with the same user multiple times. I am not saying that one should fully accept what the other says, but at least the evidence provided should be taken with the importance it deserves and without distortion. The user exhibited an exactly same behaviour in a past discussion in the same article talk page there I was able to discuss there properly as it was done on that article talk page itself.

- Administrators reviewing this report might wish to read User talk:Bbb23#Requesting undeletion.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:45, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
- Logosx127 has self-reverted. It doesn't appear likely that Logo and Pbritti will be able to resolve the dispute based on their sniping on the article Talk page. Therefore, I suggest they try another form of dispute resolution. WP:3o or an RfC might work.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:58, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

User being reported: 80.3.122.252 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
Various IPs, mostly 80.3.122.252, in a long-running edit-war over the recent history of Donald Campbell's water speed record boat Bluebird K7.
There is some very POV editing going on, with a total disregard of either the need for sourcing, or the sources that are available. This is very likely a spill over from an acrimonious real-life situation between a museum and the team who have spent years restoring the boat. It's also fairly widespread on Twitter. One of the parties here, @Nigel PG Dale: has a traceable IRL identity, is active on Twitter and has been expanding the article, not always perfectly according to local WP practice, but always with GF and a willingness to edit afterwards to meet WP's restrictions. Then they're just reverted or blanked by an IP who thinks they can write anything. And, being an anon IP, so far they can do.
More eyes needed. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:21, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- Page protected for three months. This will keep the IPs off but allow Nigel to continue editing.
I saw that the IPs have also been busy on the Campbell page ... we can protect that, too, if need be. If it gets to the point of blocking the IPs, the 83.137 one, based on London, is dynamic so we will have to calculate a range. Daniel Case (talk) 19:29, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

I have updated current world rankings from the official FIVB men's Volleyball World Ranking page (https://en.volleyballworld.com/volleyball/world-ranking/men). The reported user keeps reverting my edits without any explanation, abusing his administrator powers. I am sick and tired of having to report edit wars with such users who don't bother checking updated official data and just revert any update that THEY 'don't know where it came from'. Wikipedia truly needs to deal with such overbearing editors who take liberties and undo other editors' work for no real reason.

Blocked – for a period of a month from article as a contentious topics block appealable to ArbCom only. They were made aware of CTOPS two weeks ago. I have logged this at CTOPS under IPA, but since the edits in question also involve the infobox this sanction can be seen as coming under that topic area as well.

Manipulate long term edit warring. On 25 May they reverted themselves [275] after being warned of getting blocked by an admin [276]. However, almost a month later, they've went ahead and reverted most of their edit back under the dishonest edit summary "Inappropriate changes, restored sourced info" [277]. In fact, this user constantly engages in manipulation, as you can for example see in the thread where they got warned and their previous edit warring report [278]. --HistoryofIran (talk) 14:10, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

The editor has a track record of pushing contested article categories with edit war.
Some warnings they received: [290] , [291] , [292] , [293] , [294] .
It's hard to track warnings received by the editor, since they remove the warnings received from their talk page without archiving them.
Latest episode: edit [295] that was reverted, they then undo [296] the revert without discussing it.
Edit [297] which was reverted, they then return [298] the edit without discussing it.
The latest article is also within Eastern Europe contentious topic, but I'm not sure if they received a CT warning in a past. ManyAreasExpert (talk) 19:09, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
