Welcome to the edit warring noticeboard | ||
---|---|---|
This page is for reporting active edit warriors and recent violations of restrictions like the three-revert rule.
You must notify any user you have reported. You may use You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.
Edit warring is a behavior, typically exemplified by the use of repeated edits to "win" a content dispute. It is different from a
bold, revert, discuss (BRD) cycle. Reverting vandalism and banned users is not edit warring; at the same time, content disputes, even egregious
point of view edits and other good-faith changes
do not constitute vandalism. Administrators often must make a judgment call to identify edit warring when cooling disputes. Administrators currently use several measures to determine if a user is edit warring.
An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Violations of this rule normally attract blocks of at least 24 hours. 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. See
here for exemptions.
Sections older than 48 hours are archived by Lowercase sigmabot III.

This is no edit warring, at least not on my part - the editor has been repeatedly notified of an already existing, well-established consensus at
MOS:DIAPHONEMIC and
Help:IPA/English. Therefore, their behavior is a deliberate choice. It is on them to try to change the already-existing consensus on the appropriate talk pages.

This is a messy one. It is a two-sided edit war, the other side being a multi-IP user who is, based on their edit summaries,
clearly
well
aware of the rules against this behaviour. There are far too many reverts by them to link to comprehensively, but a quick scroll through the
article revision history makes it obvious which anon edits are by this user - they revert Adelbeighou's edits, and have a consistent tone of edit summary. A few examples:
[26]
[27]
[28]
[29]
This anon user did make some attempt to discuss the issue on both the article talk page and Adelbeighou's talk page, but in those two venues and in their edit summaries they have engaged in repeated personal attacks - and they kept reverting despite their knowledge of the rule.
Adelbeighou has claimed in some edit summaries that this IP user is evading an existing ban, but I have not found where this is meant to have taken place, nor did Adelbeighou seek outside intervention at any point (even after receiving an edit warring warning containing explanation on how to do so).

Comments:
Recent edits by Belomaad are, in their entirety, drawn from partisan and polemical sources that do not meet the WP:RELIABILITY criteria for Wikipedia articles, especially for articles about the history of Islam. In particular, none of the books cited by Belomaad are published by publishers known for fact-checking. These sources include alsersj.net and Mir'at ul-oqul by the Shia jurist Muhammad Baqir Majlisi ( d. 1699).
As a result, the content added by Belomaad repeatedly violates the principles of WP:NEUTRALITY and WP:VERIFIABILITY. In addition, there does not seem to be a WP:CONSENSUS for his/her edits and Belomaad has refused to investigate whether there is one.
All these issues were brought to Belomaad's attention on several occasions; see Talk:Umm Kulthum bint Ali#Marriage to Umar and the recent edit history of the article. Another editor, Iskandar323, even shared academic sources, currently unused in the article, that could replace the unreliable ones introduced by Belomaad. All these have been to no avail as Belomaad seems only interested in forcefully and repeatedly inserting his/her sectarian POV into the article, over and over, ignoring other editors' advice. Please see the recent edit history for the developments. Separately, Iskandar323 and Doug Weller have raised some concerns about Belomaad's integrity in Talk:Umm Kulthum bint Ali#Marriage to Umar and his/her responses suggest a flagrant ignorance about the mission of WP:WikiProject Islam. For instance, in one of his/her responses, Belomaad suggests that the article should largely reflect the the polemics of the majority rather than the academic findings of historians and Islamicists. (There is still room in the article for sectarian views when they are clearly labeled as such, e.g., a separate section about Shia views.) Albertatiran ( talk) 13:33, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
