message: A user User:Dangerous-Boy has been following my edits for last two days and has been tagging every Pakistan related article that I edit with a template with Republic of India which is extremely provacative territorial claim; as present day India is different from pre-1947 India which was called Subcontinent. After a lengthy discussion at User_talk:Dbachmann#Szhaider, where I and others gave him a solid reason to stop adding Indian tags to Pakistan related and Afghanistan related articles. User:Dbachmann gave a suggestion about creating a neutral tag without Indian flag refering to entire subcontinent. I created such a tag (Template:WP SouthAsia) and replaced indian tags with this new tag. But User:Dangerous-Boy removed this too and doesn't seem to convinced by any rational explanation. He is clearly following his own political agendas comparing India related articles with Pakistan related articles and he insists adding Indian scripts to Pakistan related articles (see Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Use of vernacular scripts in India bio articles - 1). He has violated 3RR rule many times and I suggest he should be blocked to stop this meaningless edit war. It is wasting a lot of my time but I cannot stand such political aggression on Wikipedia. I suggest all Subcontinent history related articles should be tagged with Template:WP SouthAsia. Szhaider 05:13, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

message: When myself and others work on editing Wikipedia articles, our work is thwarted by individuals who come in and add lewd comments and other nonsense.  Sometimes they blank the page.  According to Wikipedia rules, we are supposed to give them fair warning, and by that it is mean't that we inform them first that such behavior is not allowed and invite them to edit in a responsible way.  I have no problem with that at all.
The problem I do have is on some of their user pages I have seen last-warning tags all over the place.  These people come into Wikipedia, vandalize, are warned about it, blocked, and then as soon as the block is removed they are back at it again.  I am thinking seriously that these people regard Wikipedia as a joke and treat it accordingly; they know they won't be blocked from doing so, and I think it's a lack of a clear policy on blocking that is allowing them to get away with it.  Try not to get me wrong; I will not ever blame Wikipedia staff for allowing it to happen.  Responsibility rests solely with the vandalizers.
My proposal is simple.  When a last warning tag is placed in a user file, Wikipedia follows it up by a day-block upon the next bit of vandalism.  The following incident upon a removal of the block will cost the offender a week.  Then a month.  Then six months.  Then a year.  Editors who catch it should notify an adminstrator immediately.
In all honesty Wikipedia has too many people who work long hours just to make each article the best they can be, and we all cannot afford to have someone else come in and ruin it repeatedly just because he thinks it's funny.  Carajou 15:03, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

If an IP is a recurrent problem, it usually means it is an open proxy or it belongs to a school or other such organization, in which case it is usually blocked for 6 months (and then longer if it continues). —Centrx→talk • 21:15, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Question

message: I've been dealing on several articles with one or two particular persons who have such an intense ax to grind that no amount of discussion has yet brought us to anything other than heel-digging.  (In particular, the articles involve John Wayne and James Stewart (actor) most recently, and Randolph Scott and George Reeves a while back.)  Now all four of these topics are areas where I have a great deal of background, including published material.  But in keeping with Wikipedia's standards, I try not to insert any original research.  But I have a great amount of knowledge of citable data and where to find it, and I have been as conscientious as I can about providing reference citations for anything, particularly in matters that might engender controversy.  But partly because Wikipedia is becoming much more relied upon as the final word on many topics (even topics whose articles might change drastically from hour to hour), I have felt highly energized to correct false assumptions in these articles, especially when they reflect inaccurately badly on the subject or feed gossip where the truth is different. 
 
The fact is, though, I am exhausted.  I've asked for mediation and gotten no response.  I've tried to explain and cite within an inch of my life.  But these fellows (Chunda18 and DaveyJones1968, in particular) are adamantly opposed to objective evidence if it contradicts their agenda.  (The most prominent item on that agenda is that John Wayne and James Stewart were right-wing racists and that any favorable remark about them should either be stricken or so qualified as to erase the positive aspect.  A secondary agenda seems to be that "an openly racist draft-dodger," as DaveyJones1968 describes Wayne, could not possibly be as tall as he is reported to have been.  I've got better things to do than fighting with someone over how tall a dead guy was, but it's a good example.)
My question here is not so much about how to resolve an issue with someone who doesn't want it resolved if it means giving up hate-mongering.  Rather it is a more philosophical and general one:  how does Wikipedia as an entity succeed if people who are educated or otherwise well-informed on a subject can only add to Wikipedia's store of knowledge by the enormously time-consuming task of correcting and re-correcting and re-correcting misinformation by people with axes to grind?  This far supersedes my own personal experiences.  If a small number of rabidly determined obstructionists can pervert -- sometimes quite subtly -- the value of an article while the people who have genuine expertise in researching the material (and thus in providing citations and other verification) can only revert when they've nothing better to do, how can anyone ever intelligently find Wikipedia to be an even remotely reliable source?  I'm sure some of the dispute resolution processes work fine.  But what about the many examples where one person in the dispute does not want resolution?  
I have reached such a level of exhaustion from the back-and-forth in some of these squabbles that I feel, at the moment, inclined to disengage from Wikipedia entirely.  The only thing that keeps me from doing so is the frequent discovery that some newspaper article has quoted an utterly erroneous item from Wikipedia as fact, an item that stems either from ignorance of that morning's contributor or from personal bias.  Is there a sense of what I'm concerned about among the wider body of Wikipedia editors, or is it all a tempest in a teapot?  Certainly I've seen in the list of silly edit wars some administrative comment along the lines of "These guys fought for eight months over how tall so-and-so was.  But who cares?"  Well, maybe there are a lot of trivial arguments among editors.  I've finally bailed out of the "John Wayne was a racist right-winger so he couldn't possibly be 6'4" tall" contretemps.  But at what point when we pooh-pooh the silliness of certain arguments and say "who cares" does Wikipedia stop being trustworthy about much of anything one might look up?  
I've done some silly things, particularly in my early days editing at Wikipedia, having started editing before I was aware of certain rules.  I've tried to eliminate such things from my editing since then, and I've apologized to people I acted improperly toward.  I think anyone who looks at my contributions will find that I am primarily focused on providing citable and useful information, even if it makes someone I admire look bad or someone I despise look good.  A comparison with the contributions of Chunda18 or DaveyJones1968 (if indeed they are separate people) on the same topics will reveal quite a different approach.  But here in this forum it's my wish to engage in a more general discussion about how to approach the problem I described above:  dedicated researchers being overwhelmed by people with a POV agenda that virtually denies the necessity or meaning of citation, especially in light of my own experience that requests for help are not likely to get a response.

thread_title: Avoiding edit wars without giving up on the whole Wikipedia process

message: Our policy now says, "Do not simply revert changes in a dispute. When someone makes an edit you consider biased or inaccurate, improve the edit, rather than reverting it."  I'd like to discuss whether this wording should be softened on the basis that it doesn't reflect how we really do things or how we should do things.  I feel like I see many blatant POV insertions that aren't true vandalism but that are best handled by reverting them (nicely, and with an explanation) rather than by trying to improve them.  Trying to NPOV these good-faith-but-terribe edits often requires adding weasel words and leads to an article that is worse than the one that would result from reversion.  And in practice, it seems that most respected editors do deal with such edits by reverting (again, nicely and with explanation).  Why don't we change the wording to something like, "Try not to simply revert changes in a dispute.  When someone makes an edit you consider biased or inaccurate, improve the edit if you can, rather than reverting it.  If you feel you cannot improve the edit, explain nicely why you think it should be reverted."
Part of the problem here may be that the first sentence of the wording I'm discussing talks about "in a dispute", as though it might not apply to obviously bad edits, while the second sentence seems to be talking about any edit, even if it's out of the blue and unlikely to find any community support.
Finally, I realize (I think) that this is long-standing policy and this issue has probably been discussed before.  If so, please point me to any relevant discussion I should read.  --Allen 01:02, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Certainly many edits do warrant being reverted outright. The wording here is supposed to convey they fact there are many times where someone does have a legitimate objection to something in an article and so changes it. Their new version may have its own faults, or may go too far in the other direction, but simply reverting back to the old version does not address their legitimate concern, so improving upon the edit or finding an accurate middle would be the best solution in such case. That is the idea anyway. —Centrx→talk • 20:46, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You and I might know what's intended, but I'm not sure someone unfamiliar with the policy would understand, because the current language doesn't specify that it only refers to cases where the edit addresses a legitimate problem with the article.  As far as I can tell, it basically says, "don't revert, ever," even though we know that's not what's intended.  What do you think of my proposed replacement wording?  --Allen 02:34, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think your wording is good. Rhanyeia 12:15, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  vandalism? 

message: I've been looking at a kind of serious article dispute that's sadly not uncommon, and where (for various reasons) current dispute resolution processes don't work well, or quickly enough. A number of articles are train-wrecked by this scenario, and a number of positive editors driven away.
The basic notion would address situations where a period of editorial supervision is better suited, rather than mediation or arbitration. These situations don't happen often, but they do happen, and WP:DR doesn't handle it well right now. When it does happen, a disproportionate amount of damage is done to the project and to its editors. In some cases, I think we need a dispute resolution avenue that doesn't need to go to arbcom, that's supervisory rather than judicial (somewhat like Mentorship), and which is accessible much earlier on as one of many dispute options.
Unlike other interventions, the intervention here would be to enforce the establishment of good editorship, in an environment where AGF cannot be assumed, and create a more level playing field for a neutral and objective approach to become established by editors who are prepared to respect Wikipedia editing policy. Evidence of appropriateness would be required for acceptance, and it would not be accepted if mediation or arbitration was in progress.
In this sense supervision would parallel mediation; both take place over a medium period of time, but where RfM requires and assumes good faith, supervision is explicitly designed for disputes where good faith is dubious or not to be assumed. Where mediation looks to editors to understand policy and work together, supervision addresses directly editors who persistently refuse to edit in a policy-compliant manner.
See Article supervision proposal (further notes on its talk page). Views welcomed. Looking to see whether others have noticed similar situations, and would support this as a useful option and approach, within existing dispute resolution processes. Examples available.

thread_title: The wikipedians bill of rights

message: Does anyone agree that new DR processes need to be suggested? There are no efficient means to defend wikipedia policies, not even the most fundamental ones like WP:NPOV and WP:ATT. Someone who is unaware of those policies and starts edit-warring and disruptive editing can easily pose a problem to the project. Why would a policy-abiding editor have to waste his time on RFC and mediation, which are btw very inefficient policies. I mean everyone complains that NPOV is violated on a regular basis, but nobody tries to find out why. In my opinion it is due to inefficient WP:DR methods. Procedures such as RFC are based on personal views and do not provide a fast response. The project lacks in bureaucracy, hence why it's unable to defend its non-negotiable policies.

replies: text: The processes are inefficient partly because there are people involved at every step.

replies: text: I honestly believe that there's room for amelioration. I find that noticeboards in general tend to be effective, e.g. for defending policies such as 3RR or NPA. There are no noticeboards for unarguably more important policies such as WP:NPOV and WP:ATT. RFC does not guarantee that WP:Consensus won't collide with WP:NPOV, and is therefore not an efficient method. What if there was a trusted comity whose sole purpose would be the preservation of NPOV? Incidents would come to its attention via a noticeboard, but the comity's purpose would be to determine whether the rules stated under WP:NPOV are respected, and not provide personal opinions such as RFC participants do. I'm not sure if what I'm saying is clear. Miskin 12:49, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Oooh, I thought you meant something like dictatoral, robotic, efficiency. We won't make it that far, but something like noticeboards to more quickly attract attention to pressing matters is something to think about. I think for 3RR and NPA, those are rare enough and more clear cut that they can be dealt with efficiently. 3RR just requires looking at diffs and doing some clock math. NPA violations are also not hard to recognize and correct. NPOV and ATT take a bit more time to recognize, and certainly much time to correct. Some articles take weeks or months to bring in line with these two policies, even with a couple of administrators and a collection of editors working in good faith. The backlog for NPOV disputes is over 5000 articles long: :Category:NPOV_disputes. But the noticeboard that you are suggesting, it would just receive an article name, and then output a ruling that is either "Adheres to a neutral point of view", or "Does not adhere to a neutral point of view"? A wikiproject that focuses on this backlog is also an option. I can't find one right now. Sancho 15:33, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
