Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring
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.

User specifically threatened to violate WP:3RR further despite initiating a talk page discussion trying to resolve the issue. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 05:48, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
- Nineteen Ninety-Four guy, you have edit warred. Whether that includes three or four reverts doesn't change that you have edit warred. Thanks for stopping, joining the talk page discussion opened by the other user and coming here instead of reverting further. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 18:21, 27 May 2025 (UTC)

Comments:
This user had removed the information on the language page, without any discussion in the talk page with other users (or linguist-users) first before doing so. I tried to discuss with the user that the phonology and grammar was studied and published by a certified linguist who had worked closely with other linguists to do work on the language. But then they kept arguing with me about the info being "outdated" and kept removing the cited info on the language page. Then they even went as far as making false claims that the language revitalization project had "multiple issues with [their] research" and then claimed that the linguist was "let go" because of it. And then they mentioned the name of a linguist who they falsely claimed was doing the core-work of the language revitalization project, but had actually (according to my research) worked on a totally separate language, not this one in particular. Although they (the linguist of the different language) are only *aiding* other linguists in publishing different children's books on this language, not doing the actual core linguistic work.

The article: "How to Handle Reasonable Scientific Disagreement: The Case of COVID-19" cites Nicholas Taleb, that is hardly conclusive considering his personality and constant use of ad hominems. The other source is a Wired article about the perceptions of undergrads (or rather the journos perceptions of undergrads perceptions). Great sources."

Edit warring about labelling of COVID-19 misinformation. Editor was also informed of COVID-19 contentious topics restrictions here. MrOllie (talk) 12:04, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
- The issue has clearly been discussed at length in articles talk page, yet the slanderous and false sentence still remains on the article lead. It completely misrepresents the person in question. Provide a better source of your claims instead of wasting the admins time. NoMoreBu11 (talk) 12:13, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
- Note this has been discussed at length on the article Talk page, and the editor being reported – while apparently aware of that – has made no attempt to engage in that discussion, but has simply edit-warred their way to 4RR. Bon courage (talk) 13:08, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
