This is simple WP:NFC enforcement, which is exempt from 3RR. Ive asked for rationales explaining why the images need kept and have gotten silence and blind reverts. WP:NFCC requires that the usage of non-free media meet specific guidelines. In this case they are not being met and the user refused to explain why they think it is being met.

Also a lack of good faith on this users part, as he has accused me in the above edit summaries of being politically biased against UKIP, when I have outright said on the talk page that I am neutral towards their inclusion on this article, and would happily support it if consensus were attained (which it hasn't been). — Richard BB 20:00, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

From Bardrick - This "RichardBB" character has been dominating the page in question for months, repeatedly undoing edits from multiple users without good reason, & using sinister control speak language like "I just want concensus & we need to talk about it" to various other users who give up & just leave it. When he's argued with after his multiple immediate reversion edits against people he then starts threatening "going to an administrator to get other users blocked". He should get a life & stop the political (it has to be motivated by this, who else would haunt a page in this way obsessively for months continually deleting uncontentious information?) control freakery.

Thank you. I'll also take this opportunity to once more point out that I'm not "dominating" the page at all. Wikipedia works by consensus, and that consensus has not been achieved for this particular edit. I'm honestly neither for nor against UKIP's inclusion: all I want is consensus, as this is always a contentious issue, but it hasn't been achieved. — Richard BB 20:30, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Let me support what Richard BB says here. Bardrick's comments about Richard BB do not describe what I have seen. Richard BB has acted appropriately and helpfully. Bardrick was not responsive to other editors. I, as I've said on the relevant Talk page and in edits, support the edit Bardrick wants made, but the matter has been discussed on the Talk page and consensus for such a change was clearly not reached.

• Reply Thats untrue, there is no support for your edit. Only partial support for removal of some specific entries. Secondly, the civility link you posted i quickly re-edited so you're misrepresenting me. Pass a Method talk 21:59, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

• Reply Thats not a self-revert since i was not expecting 7 images to be removed. Your argument would hold merit if the title of the article was "anti-theist americans" or "atheist activist Americans". Instead, the article title is a broad/inclusive "irreligious". Furthermore, why would you remove one of the most notable irreligious Americans in history such as Carl Sagan? Pass a Method talk 22:33, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

What are you talking about? I removed five people - it's gone from 20 images down to 15. Sagan is still there. StAnselm (talk) 22:51, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

I missed that because you re-arranged the order of the images. Anyway, i still believe you have a double standard because there are articles which are have the same exact issues but you never touch those articles. If you let go of this double standard your argument would be more believable. See for example American Jews or Muslim Americans Pass a Method talk 23:01, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

I edit literally thousands of articles. Are you criticizing me for not editing articles? As it turns out, I found the Irreligion in the United States article as a reader. But now that I look at American Jews - yes, I suspect that all those people are known for being Jewish. Anyway, I didn't change the order of the images at all - I kept the order and re-numbered to fit. StAnselm (talk) 23:13, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

• Declined. StAnselm did initiate a discussion at WP:BLPN, and my reading is there's significant support for removing certain images from the article. Keeping in mind WP:BLPREMOVE, a consensus needs to be reached before images may be re-added.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:33, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Above are three recent diffs showing edit warring. There's been lots and lots of edit warring prior to this, as well as edit warring on the talk page itself, and dispute resolution efforts regarding both in other forums (including a couple that he opened while this ANI (diff) was still open) but the above is what's recent; there's no 3RR violation, it's clearly edit warring though. A couple of TJRC's many previous article reverts:

2. diff

In the past, instead of answering my questions, he's deleted my questions from the article talk page not once - [11] or twice - diff but three times - diff — justified only by a false claim that his edits were removing interruptions from his comments; if you look at those diffs, you'll see they do no such thing. All these three diffs show is TJRC removing my own additions to my own comments. Yet, TJRC still maintains that these edits were not improper, even after he was told otherwise, even by others, at AN/I!

After the edit shown in the very first diff above, I wrote the following on the talk page to TJRC, but his only response was to revert, yet again, and again - second and third diffs, above (and he's till unrepentant).

If you're not going to discuss things, then don't don't revert; to do so is to edit war. Specifically: I edited, adding the comment,

Per TJRC's TP suggestion that we "include something (with appropriate sources) to the effect that many states waive some or all of their rights under copyright law."

I edited per your suggestion. And yet: Your response was (diff):

Reverted to revision 569514616 by TJRC: Revert to the version approved by two editors; Elvey is the lone wolf here. (TW)

A reminder: WP:!VOTE says, "[!VOTE] serves as a cute little reminder that it is "not the vote" that matters, but the reasoning behind the !vote that is important."

Should I not take you on your word when you suggested we "include something (with appropriate sources) to the effect that many states waive some or all of their rights under copyright law" ?

Summary of overall dispute

All I really want to do is leave the article in a state such that a reader is not left with the wrong impression about state works. In other words, so long as this article indicates that the works of some states are Public Domain, that many states waive some or all of their rights under copyright law, or doesn't lead the reader to believe otherwise, we should be good. (There's ample proof that these statements are true; see, e.g. the in-article references, or the ones noted on the talk page, or in {{|tl|PD-FLGov}}.) TJRC finds my wording unacceptable and keeps reverting it, but won't offer wording that is acceptable that does what he had at one time agreed was acceptable - "include something (with appropriate sources) to the effect that many states waive some or all of their rights under copyright law" (that last quote is a quote from TJRC (diff showing him saying it!)) The worst of the insanity is that he keeps reverting me, claiming I'm a lone wolf, when what I'm doing is (diff) adding what he said he had no objection to! It's inexplicable. I feel TJRC is too often WP:NOTHERE, which is why I think A 0RR or 1RR restriction is warranted. If he was here to improve the encyclopedia, the article would certainly "include something (with appropriate sources) to the effect that many states waive some or all of their rights under copyright law" in it by now. --Elvey (talk) 18:05, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Comment by TJRC

Ah, the latest episode of Elveydrama.

This is actually very simple. This article is "copyright status of works of the U.S. government". Elvey seeks to add material about works of state and other governments (for brevity, I'll just say "state" from here on in). Works of state governments are not works of the U.S. Government. Works of state governments are not within the scope of the article. That's it in a nutshell.

Works of the U.S. government are markedly different from other works: they are statutorily ineligible for copyright. This is not true of works of other governments, including state governments. The distinction that needs to be addressed is already covered in the article (or was, until Elvey's most recent reversion; you can see my preferred text here): "The lack of copyright protection for works of the United States government does not apply to works of state or municipal government or to works of the governments of the District of Columbia or Puerto Rico." Boom. That's it. That's the entire sum of the relevance of such works to this topic.

Instead, Elvey wishes to add additional off-topic material to this article. He wants to add material about works of state governments, which is not part of the statutory exception. Elvey has been active producing another article (steeped in WP:SYNTH and WP:OR) on that subject: Copyright status of work by U.S. subnational governments. We include a hatnote in the section pointing to that article: "For individual state governments' treatment of their copyrights, see Copyright status of work by U.S. subnational governments." That's probably more than is appropriate; I would prefer that we instead have the usual entry in the "See also" section at the bottom of the article; but that's a small concession, and I don't mind making it.

But that's not enough for Elvey: he wants to add the off-topic material to the body of the text and delete sourced info. Elvey's preferred version adds his off-topic WP:OR material about state governments, and removes material about other territories, which material is reliably sourced to the U.S. Copyright Office document Compendium II: Copyright Office Practices. Here's his edit: [12]. I'm not the only editor to have reverted edits like this, Prosfilaes (talk · contribs) has as well: [13]. His claims about Florida and California probably have a grain of truth to them, but are based on his WP:OR article.

Elvey's characterization is that I will not find an alternate way of adding his off-topic material misses that it's already in there, in the hatnote; and being a different topic, is not discussed in the text itself, nor should it be.

As discussed in the talk page, trying to find some reference in a reliable source to support his pet text, I've checked a number of standard sources, to see how they deal with this issue. None do more than simply noting that works of state governments are not within the statutory exclusion, which is exactly how the Wikipedia article handles it. Nimmer on Copyright (an 11-volume treatise on US copyright law by Melville Nimmer and David Nimmer, unquestionably the leading authority on copyright law, apart from the statutes and cases themselves), treats it this way. One of the leading law school textbooks (if not the leading law school textbook) on the subject, Joyce, Leaffler, Jaszi, Ochoa & Carroll, Copyright Law, 9th edition), treats it this way. A few others I've checked don't cover it at all. No reliable source deals with it as Elvey seeks to, and no Wikipedia editor apart from Elvey is seeking to add it.

The underlying problem here is that Elvey does not understand law in general, and in particular copyright law, yet he continues to confidently edit copyright and other legal articles without regard to that. (I'm not the only one to have noted this. In the last episode of Elveydrama, an admin noted "My limited interaction with Elvey indicates that (1) he has no grasp of legal principles and (2) he has great trouble connecting sources with article assertions. As a consequence, he makes rather bizarre claims about content, as well as outlandish claims about others' conduct.") In this article he has claimed that government ownership of copyright is unconstitutional [14]; it is not. He has claimed that some works are PD as works of California government when they are not (see, e.g., File:Jerry Brown portrait (1984).jpg, which Elvey has tagged as a public domain work of the California government) despite there being no indication that they are works of the California government, or indeed that they were ever even owned by the California government. He has a history of confusing open-records law with copyright law.

Add to that Elvey's continued hostility with just about anyone who dares to make an edit that varies from his preferred text (not just here, and not just me, but elsewhere and with other editors; for a good time, look at the "last episode" linked above; including the lengthy bit he adds after the ANI had been closed), is it any surprise I limit my engagement with him? I think I've more than bent over backward in the talk page to this article. He's now following some of my other edits; and trying to pull me into another fight over those, which I am declining (see User_talk:TJRC#Calculus_made_easy_-_inappropriate_external_link_removal). I realize that I'm being forced to interact with him on this subject, but frankly, the less I have to deal with him, the better I will feel.

As an aside, I make no claims of WP:OWN with respect to this article. I did not author it, and, my edits to it have been relatively small and, apart from the Elveydrama, infrequent. In no way do I feel that this is "my" article. I have to admit, I have a sense of pride with respect to the few dozen articles that I have authored, but quite frankly, I like it when I see that they attract enough attention to be improved by others.

Note, I'm writing this on the evening of Tuesday, Sept. 24, and am leaving for vacation this weekend, as I've already informed Elvey on his talk page. I will be busy putting my workload in order for the remaining three days of the week, and may not respond quickly or in depth. After Friday, Sept. 27, I will not be able to respond at all until sometime in the second week of October. TJRC (talk) 00:12, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Comparison of versions

To focus this, here is a summary of the dispute between Elvey and me. I am labeling these "TJRC version" and "Elvey version" for identification purposes only, and not to claim ownership of the article by either Elvey or myself. My editorialization is in the "comments" column. The table is based on the comparison here.

Issue	Comment	TJRC version	Elvey version
Works of state governments and municipal governments not qualifying as WotUSG:	Present in both TJRC version and Elvey version, different wording. Surprisingly, no reference provided in either TJRC or Elvey version, and there should be. A good reference for this is US Copyright Office, Compendium II, § 206.03, "Works (other than edicts of government prepared by officers or employees of any government (except the U.S. Government) including State, local, or foreign governments, are subject to registration if they are otherwise copyrightable."	Present	Present
Works of the government of DC not not qualifying as WotUSG		Present, supported by reference to US Copyright Office, Compendium II, which states, "Works of the government of the District of Columbia, as now constituted, are not considered U.S. Government works."	Deleted
Works of the gov't of Puerto Rico not qualifying as WotUSG		Present, supported by reference to US Copyright Office, Compendium II, which states, "Works of the government of Puerto Rico are not considered to be U.S. Government works."	Deleted
Works of "Unorganized territories" (such as American Samoa and the former Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands) treated as WotUSG	Present in both versions, identically worded and cited.	Present	Present
Claim that some states have placed much of their work into public domain or waived copyright	As mentioned above, by definition, works of state and municipal governments are not works of the US government, and this passage is off-topic for this article. (The fact that state works are not within the scope of WotUSG is within scope, because it assists in defining WotUSG; after that, further discussion of state works are out-of-scope.) Furthermore, this claim is unsupported by any reference, but apparently relies on the content of Copyright status of work by U.S. subnational governments. This article is entirely WP:OR (particularly WP:SYNTH) and cites only one non-primary source; all others are primary sources being interpreted as original research by the contributors to the article. The sole secondary source that is cited references copyright only once, in a single sentence that mentions it in passing an that does not characterize the law on copyright as represented in the article. I have a strong interest in keeping the Copyright status of work by the U.S. government article free of this original research, which is now confined to Copyright status of work by U.S. subnational governments.	Deleted	Present, unsourced. This passage makes up 2/3 of the Elvey revision
Hatnote	Elvey text is misdescriptive. Not all states are described in the target, and the article only describes the discussed states' treatment of their own works as owners (much as any other copyright owner can do); states do not have copyright laws (apart from the narrow exception of pre-1972 sound recordings), and have not been permitted to have copyright laws since 1978. Calling this "details of..."implies it's details of the present article, which is actually about whether these works are subject to copyright as a matter of copyright law.	"For individual state governments' treatment of their copyrights, see Copyright status of work by U.S. subnational governments."; however, my preference would be to delete the hatnote and instead have a "See also" entry. The retention of the hatnote is a concession to Elvey.	"For details regarding every state, locality and organized territory, see Copyright status of work by U.S. subnational governments."

Attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Talk:Patient_Protection_and_Affordable_Care_Act#Removal_of_the_Provisions_of_the_Law

Comments:
Innab has repeatedly reverted, in whole or in part, edits to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act article despite the reverts being against consensus and despite being reverted herself by multiple editors. The article is currently undergoing an extended Good Article review, and a few weeks ago in the course of that review, a consensus was formed with input from several editors that the article was too long and that the former "Provisions by effective date" section should be split off into its own article. See discussion at Talk:Patient_Protection_and_Affordable_Care_Act/GA1; the new article can be found at Provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. However, starting a few days ago, Innab has persistently edited the article to restore all or much of the material that was moved to the new article back to the main article. At first, her reasoning was that the consensus for splitting the material was invalid because it formed in the course of a GA review, but after multiple editors have repeatedly reverted her edits, she now offers little rationale for her continued reverts. She also has persistently removed the "Background" section of the article without explanation, and there is certainly no consensus or even discussion about removing that section. I reverted her edits last Sunday, but I ceased to revert her that day after I approached 3RR; other editors then began to revert her. I have not reverted her since last Sunday, but given her persistent battles with other editors, I did warn her today that she was edit warring. She then responded to this by warning me that I am edit warring (see: diff) and resumed her reverts to the article. –Prototime (talk · contribs) 21:03, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Several of us have tried to reason with this Innab, but she continues to insist that her way is the right way. The article is now a monstrous 229kB+ and contains excessive detail. That aside, the edit warring and WP:IDHT by Innab is disruptive, especially at a time when this article is getting more than 10,000 views per day. - MrX 21:38, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Previous version reverted to: deletion of subsection "Admixture in Greeks" [52].

IP 108.5.45.96 [53] is a single-purpose account. It uses same arguments with Athenean (e.g., pseudo-science, not a reliable source etc). Basically rehashes the arguments by Athenean here [54] and here User_talk:Cavann#Spiteful_revert. Athenean also apparently has a vendetta against this scientist, Arnaiz-Villena, removing his articles from other pages [55] [56], and calling him a "kook" [57]. The only other editor who deleted this subsection was Dr.K., but he was more concerned about possible plagiarism.[58] Moreover, Athenean has a disruptive editing pattern [59] and it is clear that IP is a single purpose account; however, it might be just a proxy, so not sure if it will match Athenean's IP.

Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: [69] and [70]

Comments:
As the talk page discussions show, the editor is going against consensus, insisting on including rhetorical statements in the "reactions" section, arguing their own interpretation of what is a "notable" reaction, but ignoring the concerns of others about material that is not encyclopaedic. They often leave edit summaries and discussion comments that assume bad faith or unhelpful comments implying censorship or that others don't read what they say or that the removal of what is agreed (consensually) to be "unencycopaedic cruft" is "vandalism". Arguably, the editor has already made concessions, and has not resisted the removal of much of the bland rhetoric, but remains insistent on including them for African Union countries because they believe these are "particularly notable".

They have been successively signalling their disagreement by placing {{disputed}} and {{npov}} tags on the relevant section. Even after the consensus seemed clear to me, I created a poll, but the editor removed it along with some votes.

In this edit, they remove what is just about the only reaction that I would consider worthy of including – that security measures are being tightened in soft targets around the world. However, that edit is highly complex and the edit summary is a bit garbled. -- Ohc ^¡digame!_{¿que pasa?} 02:37, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

1. There was no warning of edit warring. Please see said users followup comment on my page.; 2. The user in question has also revert-warred multiple times on this page without participating in discussion. According to WP:BRD, his initialy BOLD revert was reverted, which mean she ought to seek consensus discussion. I then put in a different version from mine to seek accomodation, tagged the page (to generate discussion, as is the point of tags) and I asked questions to come up with a solution in talk. In talk, he did not answer my questions, he reinstated his version. For example, I have notified and kept the admin User:John abreast of the situation that I am eliciting conversation and discussion (not just voting (as he is doing on the page, and it is quite clear that WP:Consensus is not formed by voting)). 3. He accuses me of going against consensus when I have asked and shown on the talk page that his version and additions have ZERO consensus. I did that yesterday before he brought this here. There is no consensus, and no discussion for what he deems as notable to stay and what he deems as illegitmate. 4. He also removed the tag without any discussion. Removing tag to edit war is itself been before grounds for a block when consensus discussions are ongoing

What are we supposed to do if discussions are not followed? How do I even try to generate a discussion if it is dismissed in favour of such wars without consensus? And then complaining to ANI to dismiss progress on discussion-based consensus. (the only semblance of discussion/consensus he seeks is an outright vote of 2 versions without any reason WHATSOEVER of discussing matters at hand)

It is deceptive that he has made an attempt to resolve a dispute because it was ME that worked off a truncated version AND discussed on the talk page. Something he has not explained for his versionLihaas (talk) 10:48, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

Specifically, he now accuses me here of inserting rhetorical statements, when his own version has nothing but selective rhetorical statement that he personally deems noteworthy (as I brought mention of on the talk page). Am I arguing my OWN version for what is notable? If I wanted my version of netural notability I would have all the flags, I was not the one to choose my own selective version of notabiltiy and I even discussed it. While content issues are not for ANI, in response to the user he says I deem AU statements more notable (but I asked so on discussion), he deems bland rhetoric by the USA/UK as notable, has ZERO mention of it on the talk page and continues to reinssert it by his own whim.

As mentioned the tag is for disputes, as the edit mentions "consensus seemed clear to me" and that he created a "poll", which is pretty obviously spelt out by the user that he is unaware of how WP:Consensus works (and I said it as much that we don't vote count, yet he deems his vote counting to be consensus personally). As an involved editor, he cannot deem consensus (especially on his side)

In the edit in question I am reverting an unexplained removal that YOU removed. You oppose me now of accepting your version too of removing FLAGCRUFT (which is also heavily supported by edits/discussion)? And again cited by you is your personal whim which ought to be diktat: "only reaction that I would consider worthy of including ". Hasnt this just spelt out feelings of WP:OWN that personal views have been used to determine consensus?Lihaas (talk) 10:56, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

'note- I have not edited the page today at all. Yet on the talk page, the user has only written "Tthe OP said there were too many flags and "excessive reactions". And we seem to still be talking about too many reactions" in response to my questions. Has answered NONE of the questions to stimulate consensus, has reverted to the tag (that has no reason WHATSOEVER) and comes here to complain that I am restoring "my" version, while admitting he used his personal opinion.

Also note, Instead of warring I have added almost all of the content oin the page froum sources in the early days for a page that was tremedously popular with 50k hits (must be one of ITN hottest links). I would request we go back to adding a lo tmore CONTENT as there is to be added now (and I have a bunch of links to add when this settles down)Lihaas (talk) 11:07, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

• For clarity and for everyone's benefit, the warring notification was indeed posted, corresponding to the link in the report above. The fact that Lihaas "added almost all of the content oin the page froum sources in the early days" is entirely irrelevant as this confers no ownership rights. Lihaas insists on posting recentist cruft in defiance of consensus and has sought to lawyer and launch red herrings on for example why I left Obama's comment undeleted when it's hasn't been there for two days already. Lihaas did make this edit approximately 20 hours ago, and has made [71][72][73] edits today, but has not touched the disputed content as that has not changed since that edit of 20 hours ago. I did not want to provoke. The editor keeps insisting that they are continuing the BRD, like here (diff missing from above) but if one looke carefully at the diffs, you will see that the meaningless waffle about the UN press office, rhetoric from Zuma and Abdelaziz keeps reappearing. The argument continues, and there is no indication that Lihaas accepts there isn't room in our consensus for rhetorical soundbytes. It indicates that the underlying thrust remains the same cruft inclusion but on slightly different content. If one were to be strict on applying WP:3RR, though, viz: A "revert" means any edit (or administrative action) that reverses the actions of other editors, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material, there is no doubt Lihaas is in breach and can and ought to be blocked. -- Ohc ^¡digame!_{¿que pasa?} 14:10, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
• Note. My inclination is to take no action on this report (or issue warnings), partly because a breach of WP:3RR isn't clear, partly because it's a bit stale, and partly because OhC has also been edit-warring at roughly the same time. With respect to the diffs listed above, #1 is from 9/22 and too old. #2-5 are from 9/24, and the last two are from 9/25. The breach would have occurred on 9/24 or on 9/24 going into 9/25. However, there is no breach if #4 isn't counted. Could someone clarify #4? On the surface, it's an addition, but if it is adding something that was previously removed then, it's a revert. Articles like these with heavy activity are not easy to evaluate, so a little help, preferably from OhC, would be appreciated. As for the 3RR warning, OhC is correct. There was a warning on 9/24 before diffs #6 and 7. Even without a warning, Lihaas is an experienced editor and should not require one.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:52, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

User seems to be engaged in an ongoing edit war with one or more other editors, and seems to believe he has some sort of ownership over this article.

• Note. I've blocked Andrewm19912 for three days (not just for edit-warring) and semi-protected the article. At least a couple of the IPs were edit-warring as well, everyone was screaming vandalism at everyone else, and I don't know enough about the subject to even understand what the dispute was about. I suspect that at least some of the IPs are making constructive edits, but the article is going to have to limp along without all of them for the period of protection, even though there aren't that many auto-confirmed accounts editing the article.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:28, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

• Declined - reporter has a history of edit warring against multiple users. Blocked above. Materialscientist (talk) 12:25, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

The title of the article can be absurd either only for the person, that does know absolute zero about the issue or (and it is much more probable) for somebody, that is in panic need to hide facts. I can (and I am prepared) to discuss everything about the issue and prove its publication is fully eligible. Repeated unprecedented deleting by admin Mewulwe without any concrete reason is multiplied vandalism and I ask for blocking of that user.

Users Mewulwe and Yopie (see their history - e.g. also Mewulwe actions also on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Name_of_the_Czech_Republic)) have been operated for years as eliminators of the word Czechia. So, because the name was recommended by Foreign Ministry of the Czech Republic in 1998 and that recommendation has never been cancelled, those directives are in force. Czechia is a correct short-form and geographical name of the Czech state and it has full right to be used, capable to be the denomination of the Czech state in historical context, because it is politically neutral. Continuous erasing of the word by Mewulwe and Yopie is full expression of extreme POV, pushing all the time only political name of contemporary Czech state "the Czech Republic", which is the blunder, generating more and more faults in Wikipedia in application of this transient politicial appelation, existing only since 1993, also for all history of the Czech state e.g. "11th century in the Czech Republic" and similar absurdities. My article is article about the dispute, which is inherently controversial theme. All information come out from demonstrable facts. If arguments of one of opponent sides may seem to be poor, it is not fault or POV of the creator of the page, but of creators or confessors of that poorness.

So, the problem is not in my "Czechia-pushing", but in long-standing intentional "Czechia-concealment" of Mewulwe, Yopie & comp.

Single-purpose account who is "devoted to preserving and protecting the U.S. Customary/Imperial system here&abroad", recently blocked for harassment and edit-warring is now continuing their personal attacks and edit warring. - Aoidh (talk) 16:40, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

I am not a "single-purpose" account. My hobbies include surveying, which, as such, involves me with these units a great deal. I have no involvement with "protecting the U.S. Customary/Imperial system here and abroad!" But I do have an interest in removing anecdotal nonsense from articles on the ACRE, ROOD, and PERCH, which [i]I[/i] still encounter in U.S. Surveys almost every day.

This editor has been targeting me specifically since I joined, and ascribes political motives to the field of measurement; ridiculous! I have made more than four edits, but not in a malicious manner. In every instance I have provided more sources, none of which seem to meet this person's high standards. The rest of the article is littered with "citation needed" tags that this editor has made no attempt to correct. My additions were, in fact, made to RESOLVE several instances of uncited sources or supposition.

Each of the edits I made had different sources, each of which were deemed unworthy by the editor. Editor then made several references to "realty listings" completely ignoring the fact that I had actually gone and dug up a credible news article from a printed newspaper and a court docket.

Further his reversions were blanket in nature, not targeting specific sources, but rather reverting all of the different edits I had made to the article, rather than removing a particular entry whose source wasn't "acceptable." Indeed, this "shoot from the hip" style of editing is fast, but it lacks the sort of finesse a true copy editor would apply to their work.

If you look at past edits, you can see this "editor" has personally undone many of my edits since I joined, a targeted, malicious pattern in a manner that is incompatible with the mission of Wikipedia, providing free encyclopedic knowledge to users throughout the world. Instead, it seems to be this editor's mission to politicize wikipedia. Only here have I ever heard mention of a political agenda to units of land surveying! Surveyor792 (talk) 16:51, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Please note that Aoidh's previous handle was SudoGhost, and that there was a long history there of his reverting all of my contributions. I only just discovered this was the same user now. Am glad this obtuseness is the work of one individual, rather than something more pervasive. Surveyor792 (talk) 16:59, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

First, I never said "political agenda" or "politicize" in any way, you are the only one to ever use that descriptor. Your editing has a singular and very specific focus, and your previous account name was ACWMeas, a group with a very specific focus; all of your edits have fallen under that area of focus. You continued to add realtor websites as sources long after it was explained why they are not reliable sources, and removed a citation needed template after an explanation was given as to why it was added; the source you gave does not support the claim. The one "blanket" revert I made, I immediately self-reverted, so that excuse doesn't hold up; this partial revert of this addition is exactly opposite of what you're claiming I did. Despite Surveyor792's claim above, I am not the only editor that has interacted with them. - Aoidh (talk) 17:02, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

I interacted with Surveyor792 in that diff and when I left him a 3RR warning, and also with his previous incarnation as ACWMeas before that account was blocked by OrangeMike. That incarnation had this to say about himself: "I am with the Americans for Customary Weight and Measure, and feel we can speak on behalf of our friends at British Weights and Measures Association here ...". That doesn't sound to me like someone here to build an encyclopaedia. One might also wonder if someone who knows what a meat-puppet is the day after his first edit has not been around before under other names. By the way, if you mention me, it'd be courteous to let me know. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 18:10, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

You're here to CONDEMN the use of meatpuppets? Are you sure? Didn't mention you, mentioned the past account of your buddy. I used to post here under another account back in 2011. Forgot the password and don't have the email account anymore. It's hardly a conspiracy theory. Maybe you should check that page out, lots of like-minded people on there.

Would you care to provide proof that I posted under another account besides the aforementioned one from 2 years ago that I got locked out of? I think that you and your other aliases/cronies don't like the units I use as a surveyor, so you go out of your way to censor anything I research and put up here. You talk about political agendas and then procede to block real-world usages that provide clear-cut evidence. Is it possible I have set up dozens of realty sites around the world that have unique country identifiers? Yes. Is it at all or in any way likely?

You continually attack the credibility of some common-sense real-world sources, but then allow the unnsourced article that existed before to exist unchanged.

Bizarre.

This is the fourth time you've accused me of being a member of some group that has a "political measuring agenda" or some other such nonsense. CITE YOUR SOURCES. PROVE IT. Or don't mention it again. Maybe I should start copy-editing all of the unverified BS out of your power-hungry postings.Surveyor792 (talk) 18:27, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Despite your continued assertion that anyone other than you has made any reference to anything "political", the fact remains that you have violated 3RR and made continued personal attacks despite being blocked for that very same behavior a month ago. - Aoidh (talk) 18:34, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Ah but SudoGhost you DID change your user handle, and never mentioned it. I am not sure what just is chiming in about. You were the one I was calling out. You claimed I represent a single-issue group, then described a political agenda. Further I see that you have ignored the procedure completely for using THIS TALK PAGE. You wanted to trap me in an edit war and now you want to punish me. Power and politics, not encyclopedic editing. You want to run Wikipedia, not engage in good-faith collaboration with contributors who are donating their time and expertise.Surveyor792 (talk) 18:45, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Listen, I am going to explain this to you real good and slow, so you understand: I am contributing to areas in which I have professional knowledge. That constitutes a narrow range of expertise.

− − Do you understand my background?

− Surveyor 792?

− If you don't get it, perhaps you shouldn't be editing these pages at all, because you clearly don't understand what field or profession to which they pertain.

− − − I don't know what you're in to, nor do I particularly care, but you don't see me copy-editing work you profess a high level of understanding, do you?

− − I repeatedly made edits that were complex and accomplished multiple changes.

− − You then deleted all of the work in a blanket fashion if you found any issue with any of the multiple sources. Even other parts of the edit, completely unrelated, completely disappeared. You don't understand why this wasted effort causes me anger? You are practicing a very lazy style of editing based on some flawed, paranoid assumptions about some conspiracy to conquer the world using "Imperial/USCustomary units." What great apocalypse, or governmental upheaval this will usher in, you have to tell me, because that is way off the deep end.

− − I am here to spread knowledge of the units I employ in work almost every day amongst English language readers. There are many gaping holes in measurement, particularly surveyor's measure, due to gaping holes in our educational system. Absent of a proficient primary or secondary text, I will use whatever resources I can find at my disposal. A secondary or tertiary source is better than some biased, unencyclopedic language lacking any citations whatsoever, which, you nevertheless, in your editorial prowess saw fit to be in the article in place of my contributions.

− − You don't like me, so you are going to nitpick all of my posts, haunt me around here because you're convinced I am out to destroy the world with surveyor's chains and rods. Your pedantic tediousness might be tolerated elsewhere, but it makes my skin crawl that someone like you can be in any position of importance in scholarly work. You care more about the form than the function.Surveyor792 (talk) 18:45, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Your background and knowledge are irrelevant; your edit warring and continued personal attacks are why this report is here. Your continued assertion of "blanket removal" is, as already explained, demonstrably false, so to continue to make those claims does not help, nor does your speculation as to what I do and do not "like". - Aoidh (talk) 18:51, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Further, your whole argument is built around my "reverting your posts three or more times." I repeatedly attempted to reason with you. I was the only one that contributed new information, which you immediately and repeatedly reverted.

At that point that I undid your reversion (none of which contained any new information I could discern), I added new information and sources to comply with your increasingly elaborate requests for infomration. You then repeatedly reverted these additions in spite of the fact that they complied with Wikipedia - not your own personal - and its requirements for reliable, verifiable citations. Nevertheless, you continued to revert my work.

Then your tactics changed to threatening my account with another block. You were instrumental in getting me blocked before, and along with Orangemike, you kept me blocked at least two full weeks past the point the block was set to expire.

However, the allegations you made before were rejected, so now your tactics shift to trying to get me in trouble for something else. If you look at any CONTENT YOU CONTRIBUTED, there were zero words added by you, in addition you deleted other unrelated parts of the article in an attempt to anger me; you succeeded. I contributed to this article. You only sought to censor any and all contributions on any page you witnessed me posting in, contributing NOTHING.Surveyor792 (talk) 18:53, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

See WP:TLDR; concise points go a long way. You claim that you "repeatedly attempted to reason" with me, do you have any diffs to back that claim up? You got yourself blocked, not me, and not the blocking admin. You continue to personally attack those that you interact with; I did not force you do attack others, and I did not force you to violate WP:3RR. Do you have a diff backing up your claim that "the allegations" I made "were rejected"? Because you're using a whole lot of words, but not really saying anything relevant at all. - Aoidh (talk) 18:58, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

First, as stated, we've got someone who doesn't understand what an edit war is - three reversals, and it usually requires no explaination or twisted explaination of reasoning for an editor to be sanctioned. Rather than talk about their insertion and its appropriateness, SummerWithMorons has gone straight to edit war sanctioning. As explained in the revert and not mentioned here by an editor pushing their own case, the reasoning for deletion was that talking about 'epoxy' in reference to stand-up comedy in general cannot use a reference where one comedian comments about his own act. This does not apply to comedy broadly, and trying to use a concept of comedic 'epoxy' makes no sense without extensive context and explaination which is inappropriate in the opening paragraph about stand-up comedy.Mdw0 (talk) 01:57, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

Comments:
I was recommended here from RFPP. I know 3RR hasn't yet been violated but edit warring is clearly taking place and I expect it will be very shortly. I have tried both strategies of (1) removing the falsely cited material and (2) tagging it for cleanup, but both efforts have been reverted multiple times. The editor seems to only communicate through rare edit summaries, and he is clearly using a dynamic IP and possibly proxies or meatpuppets (IPs geolocate to Southern USA and Japan) so I believe we'll need page protection to coax him to the talk page. -Thibbs (talk) 16:14, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

• Page protected for 2 days. I noticed that you also violated 3RR on that article; however, I can see that the edits you were reverting could be perceived as vandalism. I'm not certain that the vandalism is as obvious as is required at WP:NOT3RR, but I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. I suggest you continue trying to discuss this with the editors - if they continue to be unresponsive it will be a clearer indication that they are not acting in good faith. I would advise that, in the future, you take more care with this kind of edit which is not blatant vandalism (in the way that page blanking or inserting offensive material is) and avoid breaching 3RR. ItsZippy ^{(talk • contributions)} 18:57, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

• Thanks for protecting the page. I hope this will inspire Jgbuford to use the talk page. I don't believe I violated 3RR, though. I reverted the addition of this information only 3 times, and after adding citation-needed tags I reverted to restore them only 3 times. The original placement of the citation-needed tags can't be considered a reversion, right? I agree that there should be better ways to go about this. The bottom line is that the falsely-cited information had to either be removed or tagged as unreliable, but perhaps it would have been better to have drawn it out over several days or something. What I actually did was to go to WP:RFPP where I was told to file a report here. At that time neither Jgbuford nor I were up to the 3RR line yet so I worried that I'd be dismissed here too unless I carried on for a few more iterations. As indicated above, I don't believe Jgbuford has violated 3RR yet either. At least not the letter of the rule. The only reason I came here was to get page protection after RFPP passed the buck. I find RFPP to be singularly difficult to get help from. -Thibbs (talk) 20:32, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

• In retrospect, actually, I should have started escalating warning templates immediately and then just gone to AIV. I've had a lot more success with the admins there than those at RFPP. -Thibbs (talk) 20:38, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

Just to clarify, 3RR explicitly states that 3RR applies whether involving the same or different material - so the fact that you first remove content, then restored tags wouldn't justify exceeding three reverts on the article. ItsZippy ^{(talk • contributions)} 20:47, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

I didn't realize how strict the rule is and I'll certainly avoid a repetition in the future. Thank you. -Thibbs (talk) 20:56, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

• Blocked – for a period of 48 hours. Although I was a bit troubled by the reverts by the new account, the combination of the edit warring and WP:BLP issues was too disruptive.

TheRedPenOfDoom has been removing many articles and removing the sourced material. He has been removing it and vandalizing. I've done more than three reverts within a 24 hour period, and that I've probably earned some blocking too.)

This user continues to revert edits despite a talk page consensus, and despite repeated requests to engage in a talk page discussion.

It's impossible to hit 3RR with four unrelated edits on three different articles. Feel free to submit again if you have actual evidence of edit warring.—Kww(talk) 01:40, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Can we please have an independent admin comment here, not someone with a track record of jumping at Red Pen's call when he needs a block threatening. Andy Dingley (talk) 19:21, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

• Comment As Kww pointed out, the provided diffs do not (and cannot) illustrate a bright-line violation. I reviewed each article, and I would have made the same reverts. The only difference would have been the unsourced Kunchacko Boban filmography, where I would have cut much more (Upcoming Movies? Opted Out Movies? Really?) and merged back into the BIO article (it would be nice to see the filmography and awards combined, for instance). The other two articles given were very clear (wrong article on one and WP:ELNO on the other). TRPoD may not be making many friends in those frequently debated subject areas, but the edits were good and forward what we are up to here. --(Non-administrator comment)Tgeairn (talk) 19:56, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Comments:

I was just adding information in regards to Minnesota should be on the contenders list. Creditable sources state the behind the scenes discussions have been going on for 2-3 weeks. Each time the comments, they are revert without cause. If the three revert edit rule applies then this rule need to also applied to my executer. He revert my information more than three times. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smj91791 (talk • contribs) 20:47, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

I reverted three times only and I warned you that we were both at 3RR and attempted to discuss between reverts as can be seen from the talk page. Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:51, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

As a neutral observer, I have serious concerns whether User:Smj91791 has sufficient WP:COMPETENCE to be a productive editor to the encyclopedia. Beyond all the issues involved in the current dispute (edit warring, original research, relying on blogs, trying to add "behind the scenes discussions") the more troubling issue is that the user's talk page, the article talk page and article history are littered with warnings to the user to stop copy-pasting copyrighted content into the article. However, the plagarism has continued right up until today. I think some sort of administrative action is required here until Smj91791 can demonstrate that they understand our copyright policy. TDL (talk) 20:56, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

I tend to agree with TDL. The talk page of the article in question also has one section with two warnings to Smj91791 for the same. Walter Görlitz (talk) 21:33, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

The final edit was an attempt to remove any copyright issues. The situation with the Minnesota expansion bid is no different than that of Atlanta. Additional sources will be added shortly. Their are few editors on the site believe that their information is the only creditable information. Its their way or no way. I was simply trying to add additional information to current state of the history. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smj91791 (talk • contribs) 21:12, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Your final edit also removed my tags on the weak sources, for the second time.

If you add more sources, make sure they meet the requirements at WP:RS. Adding information is good. Adding bad information isn't. It's not that I believe my information is the only credible information, I believe that blogs are not usually reliable. Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:14, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Comments:

This editor has not breached 3RR today (yet), rather, the diffs above show a continuation of the previous edit warring this editor was blocked for recently. While it is not the same exact edit, it is once again on the subject of IQ and water fluoridation, demonstrating that the editor has refused to engage in consensus building..

If you read through the talk page you'll also notice a failure to adhere to sourcing standards, IDHT behavior, ignoring consensus, and [in my estimation] attempts to push a WP:FRINGE POV (see talk in general).

Because this page is under discretionary sanctions I would request in addition to what ever the result is here that the editor be formally warned about WP:ARBPS

Note that I am no longer actively involved in this dispute - I saw the reverts on my watchlist and thought it appropriate to report but I doubt I will have the time to stick around and comment. N^oformation ^Talk 02:11, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

I restored a previous edit, that had been on the page for some time and accepted into the article by User:Podiaebba (although it was initially changed to incorrectly assume that a statistic was equal to the actual IQ drop, by User:Jmh649). If anything, there is a meatpuppetry on this page towards driving off anyone with research that doesn't agree with the current NPOV deficit. Campoftheamericas (talk) 02:33, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

TheOldJacobite says that full character names are in cast section and should not be require in plot summaries. But they are things like full names, occupations and such that are at much should be on plot summaries. TheOldJacobite just doesn't seem to get it. BattleshipMan (talk) 07:04, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

He has reverted all of two times, as have you. It's a bit much trying to get someone blocked after they have reverted twice. Simply put he hasn't violated 3RR. Since you are the one making the bold edit by adding the character names, I urge you to comply with WP:BRD and start a discussion on the talk page. Betty Logan (talk) 07:16, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

If you seen the edits on Ransom (1996 film), you know what I mean. There we're removals which are wrong and unnecessary, since the character's occupation and relations we're removed in the plot summary. You want to explain something about that reason. Not to mention that TheOldJacobite sometimes can be confrontational and states that full characters names should not be put on the plot summaries which they are mainly put on there. What about other movie articles that don't have cast sections and without full characters names in the plot summaries. BattleshipMan (talk) 08:15, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

I stated my reasons in my edit summary and I stand by them. BattleshipMan should have stated his reasons on the talk page, rather than galloping off to this noticeboard, especially when there was no 3RR violation. It takes two to edit-war. ---The Old Jacobite_{The '45} 01:17, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

This IP editor has been attempting to insert plot details about a science fiction book into the article under the heading of "in popular culture." I see no indication that the book in question is particularly notable as an example of popular culture, and it seems promotional to insert a reference to a book/author with relatively limited coverage (though still qualifying under WP:N) Into a highly trafficked article about a medicine. The most recent attempt also introduced some unreferenced assertions, the actual substance of which are touched on elsewhere in the article.

Comments:

ChrisGualtieri and Adam Cuerden were gaming the system by both introducing controversial changes to this page without any discussion, even while a discussion against their merits was being performed on the project talk page. If I am blocked for edit warring then they should be as well.—Ryulong (琉竜) 09:27, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

Regardless, I have self-reverted the removal of the {{disputed-inline}} as Adam Cuerden has properly shown me that it is used on project pages, so I am at 3 reverts again.—Ryulong (琉竜) 09:33, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

May I point out that the supposed "gaming the system" that Ryulong wants me bliocked for is makign a change (per WP:BRD, and, when it was reverted, marking the text with {{disputed inline}}. Ryulong has a severe battleground mentality here, and I'm not quite sure how I am meant to work with someone who thinks tagging disputed text is worthy of me being blocked for gaming the system. (or, for that matter, who thinks that when you see text on a page that doesn't make any sense to you, that trying to edit it into something that makes sense is gaming the system) Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 09:45, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

I've realized my mistake in the series of events and I am sorry for making these accusations. The self revert has still happened which means I am still at #3 and I will not be doing anything else to the project page for some time.—Ryulong (琉竜) 10:00, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

Thank you, Ryulong. I'm sure we've all made mistakes. I request closure of this with no action. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 10:09, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

Ryulong has a chronic problem with edit warring and ownership. Ryulong knows better and his bad faith and insults have caused much issue, coming straight off the ANI about his behavior. Ryulong does have a severe battleground issue. The page is protected for now, but Ryulong knows better and considering he violated 3RR after I warned him shows the hostile mentality. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 12:35, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

• Declined This situation is also being discussed on ANI (Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive814#Ryulong again), so I'm procedural closing this report with no action taken. Mark Arsten (talk) 16:15, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Here is where I've tried to explain why the improvement tags are valid for the page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:The_Oregonian_(film). The user appears to be using IP-addresses to make his argument for him. After I requested a sockpuppetry investigation, mysteriously the IP-addresses disappeared and the user resumed the same line of rhetoric unphased. I have tried to explain in my edit summaries what is needed to have the improvement tags removed, however the user has refused to acknowledge the issue and merely wishes to revert the improvement tags without adding proper references to the page, thus asserting notability and making the need for a "no references" tag obsolete. I have tried to be civil, but receive fairly uncivil responses.Jeremy112233 (talk) 16:46, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

Comments:

The page includes links to Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes, both of which include reviews for the film from Slant Magazine, The New York Times, Village Voice and Time Out New York. The article does not have a "reception" section because it is a stub, but the film's notability has very clearly been established and continuing to add such a tag is very unnecessary and disruptive.--MoonMetropolis (talk) 16:50, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

I am not disputing that the external links you have added have sources indexed within them, what I have said is that it is not good enough merely to give external links at the end of a page. In order to assert notability and to not have a "non-referenced" improvement tag, there must be actual references on the page. These could be the media links mentioned in your external links, or others, but all aspects of the page need to be cited. External links are not the same thing as carefully selected citations. So long as there are no citations on the page then the tag pointing to the lack of references is valid. So long as there are no references on the page, though the film may be notable, notability is not asserted on the page itself--because there are no citations proving GNG.Jeremy112233 (talk) 16:54, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

That isn't how notability works. The links themselves prove that the film is notable. Adding in references would not make the film any more notable than it already is.--MoonMetropolis (talk) 16:59, 3 October 2013 (UTC)

I would also like to add that I will not be reverting past the 3RR rule myself until this is resolved; therefore the improvement tags valid for the page are not currently up due to MoonMetropolis' consistent reversions. However, external links cannot prove notability for a page, and asserting that references don't matter is contrary to Wikipedia policy: Wikipedia:Notability_(films).
