This page is for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule.

• See this guide for instructions on creating diffs for this report.
• If you see that a user may be about to violate the three-revert rule, consider warning them by placing {{subst:uw-3rr}} on their user talk page.

You must notify any user you have reported.

You may use {{subst:An3-notice}} ~~~~ to do so.

You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

Additional notes

• When reporting a user here, your own behavior will also be scrutinized. Be sure you understand WP:REVERT and the definitions below first.
• The format and contents of a 3RR/1RR report are important, use the "Click here to create a new report" button below to have a report template with the necessary fields to work from.
• Possible alternatives to filing here are dispute resolution, or a request for page protection.
• Violations of other restrictions, like WP:1RR violations, may also be brought here. Your report should include two reverts that occurred within a 24-hour period, and a link to where the 1RR restriction was imposed.

Comments:

User is edit warring the long established (and historically discussed) trophy count on List of football clubs in England by competitive honours won. The article has a long history of vandalism and has been subject to previous semi-protections from IP editors. User in question has only very recently registered account and has failed to engage in any dialogue, despite requests to do so, instead choosing to edit war. User already has enough time and edits that semi-protection would not be effective. Bungle 20:23, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

The editor continues to edit-war this article because no administrator has yet reviewed this case I have raised. The edit history of the article is fairly self-explanatory. Despite the case raised, the editor continues disruptive editing. Bungle 16:06, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

Reported editor is pushing WP:OR, against consensus of three established editors. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 04:18, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

Unlike the reporting editor's claim, there has not been a consensus made between editors for the later reversions. Granted, the initial edit was info added in the wrong context. However, the concerning info was later added to its specific subsection where again it was taken down. Granted, I did not add the info again for other editors to come into a settlement. But the issue is that it seems like the reporting editor does not want to, or is incapable of reasoning and has a sweet spot for keeping the word "suggestions" instead of "hypothesis", the word that is used unilaterally for the rest of the subsection involved. That is just illogical, if not WP:POV. mjrx (talk) 10:39, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

4. revert - Reversal because of apparent sock. I'm sorry, but check the backend. There is only one of me, no double accounts.
5. revert - Removal because of non-notable library? MrOllie himself said in the talk page that BSAFE is a notable name. It just happen to be a product suite name with multiple different implementations, in C and Java.
6. - removal of implementation Page is about comparing libraries, not vendor. Refusal to discuss.
7. revert - Reverted because of COI. COI is not a good reason for reversal of non-COI content.

Comments:

For a reason I do not understand, MrOllie is in an edit war with everything I have posted so far. Am I a RS on a subject? Yes. Am I a subject expert matter on the topics I write about? Of course! Am I paid to edit WP? No. Were my contributions made to promote anything? No. Is MrOllie's content removal lowers the quality of the information of the pages he's at war with me? Yes.

Obvious sockpuppetry/meatpuppetry; see MrSaul76. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 20:35, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

Not at all, sorry. And my request is about an edit war with MrOllie's removal of technical content on WP. Please refocus on the request. - Security in mind (talk) 20:39, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

Reviewing admin, see Misplaced Pages:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard#BSAFE for context. - MrOllie (talk) 21:34, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

Reviewing admin, please do. Me no MrSaul76. Me nothing to hide. COI is not a reason to undo valuable, unbiased and legitimate contributions, which is what MrOllie has decided to do with what I have contributed so far to WP. - Security in mind (talk) 21:44, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

There are several active conversations on the talk page regarding the topics that User:JorgeLaArdilla is edit warring over. Note they are not reverting the same edits each time, there are a couple of topics going on. They are actively involved in the discussions but are continuing to edit for their preferred versions despite the ongoing discussions on these topics and have been slow edit warring for several days on the article in general now. At this point the user's activities are becoming disruptive and there is a fair amount of WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT going on. Note I am not particularly involved here, have only made 2 clarification seeking comments in the discussions, but am still concerned about WP:INVOLVED to take admin action myself.

Diff of ANEW notice posted to user's talk page; diff

Comments:

Note, the edit was initially made an anon, I'm only assuming that they registered the account User:Blackraider77 as they continue where the anon left off, with the same types of comments in the edit summaries. However, it doesn't really matter since they have made 5 reverts now with the registered account anyway.

Anon user added an external link without comment. Although it is related to the article, I reverted it (for various reasons now detailed on the talk page, but in my first revert I did not explain the reasons; not good practice, I know). The user added it back, and I reverted again with my reasons explained, and tried to direct further discussion to the talk page. User:Blackraider77 reinstated the edit, arguing against the points I made in their edit summary. I reverted the page again, did not try to argue any points and instead directed them to make their arguments on the talk page, and linked them to WP:EDITWAR. User:Blackraider77 instead reverted again with rude comments in the summary and told me to start a talk page discussion myself.

At this point I stopped reverting their edits to avoid warring and just let it stay up, and created a talk page discussion (posted around 2.5 hours after their last revert). About an hour after that, I posted a link to the discussion on their userpage to make sure they see it (later moved it to their user talk page after I realized I put it in the wrong place). Around the same time that I linked the discussion on their user page, another editor Janke reverted their edit, and within a few minutes User:Blackraider77 was back and reinstated their edit again. It was reverted by Janke again, and reinstated by User:Blackraider77 again. User:Blackraider77 still did not respond to the talk page discussion at this point. I reverted their change one last time, directing them to the talk page discussion and linking them to WP:EDITWAR a second time. They have now responded to the talk page discussion, but continue to reinstate their edits without waiting for consensus, now constituting 5 edits with 24 hours.

If there are any further questions about why his edits are questionable, please ask me ~Reiner Gavriel (talk) 04:31, 25 July 2021 (UTC)

@Reiner Gavriel: I think you may be at the wrong noticeboard. This one is for edit warring and, quite frankly, I don't see any edit war here. I see 5 different groups of consecutive edits by this user. Per WP:EW, a series of consecutive edits reverting multiple things counts as a single revert, so the maximum number of reverts we are dealing with here is 5, spread out over two weeks. Then consider that the two edits separating the most recent three such groups were made by bots performing minor maintenance/cleanup tasks, and we are down to three logical groups of edits. I don't even see any clear-cut reverts by this user on this article. Unless you can provide some context or additional information, I'm going to close this report as "no violation." --Chris | Crazycomputers (talk) 06:27, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
