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.
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.
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 account seems to exist to edit war with others. While patrolling I saw this user making a potentially contentious edit, only to go to the history of this page (and all of their contribs) to find out that all of their edits are focused on this one page, and they seem to be of the opinion that wikipedia bias is behind the "far right" moniker. After asking them politely to explain on the talk page, and warning them about 3rr, they also decided to circumvent that by LOUTsocking.

Comments:
The article is a BLP, and so unverified material should be removed. This was explained. Also explained was WP:ONUS.
Based on username, the reported user appears to be a relative. I have asked, on their user page and on the article talk page, multiple times, what their relationship is. I have not gotten any answer.
I believe the reported user has not exceeded 3RR only because after their 2nd revert I paused for some time to see if they'd respond to my post on the talk page. They did not. I reverted again, and they resumed the edit war.
Given that ethnic issues can be contentious, I feel it's important we adequately source any statements on it. The source the reported user keeps readding is from a personal webpage, and those not a WP:RS. This was also explained, and ignored. EducatedRedneck (talk) 19:28, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

User apparently vandalizing the page by removing "and final" at the lead. This isn't true because there were no updates since 2023 when the creators announced that they made a script of the third film. User was warned by an admin by the way. HypnoBlader (talk) 00:11, 2 October 2026 (UTC)
