edit war:Summer Hits Tour 2018

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that 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. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. 96.41.142.76 (talk) 13:55, 27 May 2018 (UTC) (The garmine)[reply]

May 2018

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for edit warring, as you did at Summer Hits Tour 2018. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 14:37, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I have been correcting completely inaccurate and frankly ridiculous fake edits from users (whom considering the type of comments used give the impression they're all the same person using a VPN to change IP addresses) who constantly change the sourced and accurate information of Summer Hits Tour 2018, from adding Broken Witt Rebels into the support acts (which is completely untrue) to changing the sourced information, to adding random songs into the setlist and changing their song Move to Move B****, even BOTs have changed their edits yet they keep changing them back, making the whole page completely inaccurate, i've seeked a dispute resolution and requested page protection to get the page back to normal but haven't had a reply yet and therefore because i've been helping the page get back to normal, been banned in the process. I feel like this isn't fair for someone purely trying to help and the consistent trolls are carrying on with different VPN IP addresses. I completely understand that I am editing in good faith and I can still be banned for that but I have also tried to helped the situation numerous times too. Thankyou for reading.

Accept reason:

Welcome back. Sorry for the confusion, apparently it wasn't quite clear to DeltaQuad that you reverted vandalism. More use of edit summaries can help clarify that the information you remove is not supported by the given sources or flat-out fabricated. Huon (talk) 17:36, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@DeltaQuad:, this does look like reverting vandalism to me; the information removed by MW2018 was blatantly false. Reverting vandalism isn't edit warring. Any objections to an unblock? Huon (talk) 17:04, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have reread, and checked the sources behind the edits and found they are vandalism. At glance it looks like there was a dispute on what the sources said, not vandalism. Also people do frequently edit war page names, so at the time I didn't realize it was being moved to another band's song. I apologize for the oversight on this. I have also reblocked the other user for vandalism and protected the page. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 17:41, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou both ever so much, have a good evening. - MW2018

@DeltaQuad:, @Huon:, I just thought i'd let you know they are now using another IP address to vandalise/troll the Tours section on Rak-Su's page in regards to them supporting on the Summer Hits Tour 2018, I presume i'm not to correct it and they start an edit war again? MW2018 (talk) 21:14, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rak-Su

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Hello, the vandalising trolls who caused Summer Hits Tour 2018 to be locked have now started again with a different IP on Rak-Su's Tour section, there's a source to state they're performing on all the dates of Little Mix's tour but they keep changing it to 'select dates', even reverting the BOTs edits. I don't want to get in an edit war with them again but the information on their page is inaccurate. Even the admin/mod who locked the Summer Hits Tour 2018 page stated the sources show nothing about them only performing 'select dates' and infact they're performing at them all. MW2018 (talk) 17:01, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've put a warning on their talk page and reverted them with reasoning - hopefully this stops them. Alduin2000 (talk) 18:38, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Given the insertion of just plain false information in the past, I'd advise you to report the IP editor to WP:AIV if you see them again (not this time since I'll be dealing with them in a moment, so a report becomes unnecessary). We can also semi-protect the Rak-Su article if necessary (see WP:RFPP), but I'd like to prevent as few good-faith IP editors from contributing as possible. Huon (talk) 18:45, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou both for your help! Didn't realise those pages existed, apologies. MW2018 (talk) 18:54, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Orphan Wiki. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Tanya Burr seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Orphan Wiki 13:26, 2 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MW2018! I came here to thank you for your anti-vandalism work on the Little Mix articles - so thanks! - and noticed the above warning. I looked at the edit, Special:Diff/843782455/843994520, and it seems fine to me. I can't speak for Orphan Wiki but I think what might have happened is that they read it as "She is known ... (for her beauty) (and lifestyle videos on YouTube)" rather than "She is known ... for her (beauty and lifestyle videos) on YouTube". The latter interpretation is fairly obvious to me, and supported by the sources, and I don't see any problem with it not being a neutral point of view, nor any of your other edits that I looked at. Keep up the good work! --IamNotU (talk) 13:26, 5 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your help on Melodifestivalen pages!

Hello! I wanted to thank you for fixing my grammar at the different Melodifestivalen pages. I didn't know if I should use "at" or "in", but after your edits I believe "in" is the way to go. Thank you again! Zandor (talk) 08:36, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
