====Statement by PerspicazHistorian ====
*By far I am also concerned how my edits were forcefully reverted without a proper reason despite providing enough references. Please check how I am getting attacked by them on [[Chandraseniya_Kayastha_Prabhu]] Page.
I didn't know about the three-revert-rule before [[User: Ratnahastin]] told me about this: [[User_talk:PerspicazHistorian#c-Ratnahastin-20241219023900-December_2024|User_talk:PerspicazHistorian]].
Please grant me one more chance, I will make sure not to edit war.<br>
*In the below statement by LukeEmily, As a reply I just want to say that I was just making obvious edit on [[Chandraseniya_Kayastha_Prabhu]] by adding a list of notable people with proper references. And according to [[Edit_warring#What_edit_warring_is]] it is clearly said: "Edits from a slanted point of view, general insertion or removal of material, or other good-faith changes are not considered vandalism." It was a good faith edit but others reverted it. I accept my mistake of not raising it on talk page as a part of [[Wikipedia:BOLD,_revert,_discuss_cycle]].<br>
*As a clarification to my edit on [[Students' Islamic Movement of India]], it can be clearly seen that I provided enough reference to prove its a terrorist organisation as seen in this [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Students%27_Islamic_Movement_of_India&diff=prev&oldid=1263965401 edit]. I don't know why is there a discussion to this obvious edit? Admins please correct me if I am wrong.
:@[[User:Valereee|Valereee]], Yes I read about 1RR and 0RR revert rules in [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#What edit warring is#Other revert rules]]. I now understand the importance of raising the topic on talk page whenever a consensus is needed. Thank You !

:1)Yes I usually edit on RSS related topics, but to ensure a democratic view is maintained as many socks try to disrupt such articles. Even on [[Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh]] page, I just edited on request of talk page and added a graph. I don't think its a POV push.
:2) My main interest in editing is [[Hinduism]] and [[History of India|Indian History]] topics.
:3)There have been certain cases in past where I was blocked but if studied carefully they were result of me edit warring with socks(although, through guidance of various experienced editors and admins I learnt a SPI should be filed first).

PerspicazHistorian also violated [[WP:BRD]] by engaging in an edit war with {{u|Ratnahastin}} who reverted his edits and restored an article to a stable version by admin.

====Statement by Toddy1====
This is another editor who appears to have pro-[[:Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh]] (RSS) and pro-[[:Bharatiya Janata Party]] (BJP) views. I dislike those views, but find it rather alarming that Wikipedia should seek to censor those views, but not the views of the political opponents. Imagine the outrage if we sought to topic-ban anyone who expressed pro-[[:Republican Party (United States)|Republican]] views, but allowed [[:Democratic Party (United States)|Democrat-activists]] to say whatever they liked.
A lot of pro-RSS/BJP editors turn out to be sock-puppets, so please can we do a checkuser on this account. And to be even-handed, why not checkuser NXcrypto too.
If we want to talk about [[:WP:CIR]] when editors make mistakes, look at the diff given by NXcrypto for "Notification of the user against whom enforcement is requested" - it is the wrong diff. He/she did notify PerspicazHistorian - but the correct diff is [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:PerspicazHistorian&diff=prev&oldid=1263957158].
A topic ban from Indian topics would be unhelpful, unless given to both parties. Wikipedia is meant to be a mainstream encyclopaedia, and BJP and RSS are mainstream in India. Loading the dice against BJP and RSS editors will turn Wikipedia into a fringe encyclopaedia on Indian topics.
I can see a good case for restricting PerspicazHistorian to draft articles and talk pages for a month, and suggesting that he/she seeks advice from more experienced editors. Another solution would be a one-revert rule to last six months.<span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;font-size:10pt;color:#000000">--[[User:Toddy1| Toddy1]] [[User talk:Toddy1|(talk)]]</span> 13:55, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

I find the comment from {{U|Toddy1}} to be entirely outrageous. What are you trying to tell by saying "{{tq|Wikipedia is meant to be a mainstream encyclopaedia, and BJP and RSS are mainstream in India}}"? If you want us to entertain those who are in power, then we could never have an article like [[False or misleading statements by Donald Trump]].
You cannot ask topic ban for both editors without having any evidence of misconduct. Same way, you cannot ask CU on either user [[WP:NOTFISHING|only for your own mental relief]]. It is a high time that you should strike your comment, since you are falsely accusing others that they "{{tq|seek to censor}}" this editor due to his "{{tq| pro-Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and pro-Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) views}}". You should strike your comment. If you cannot do that, then I am sure [[WP:BOOMERANG]] is coming for you. [[User:Capitals00|Capitals00]] ([[User talk:Capitals00|talk]]) 15:20, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
====Statement by Vanamonde93====
{{U|Toddy1}}: I, too, am baffled by your comment. We don't ban editors based on their POV; but we do ban editors who fail to follow our PAGs, and we certainly don't make excuses for editors who fail to follow our guidelines based on their POV. You seem to be suggesting we cut PH some slack because of their political position, and I find that deeply inappropriate. Among other things, I don't believe they have publicly stated anywhere that they support the BJP or the RSS, and we cannot make assumptions about them.
That said, the fact that this was still open prompted me to spot-check PH's contributions, and I find a lot to be concerned about. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Banajiga&diff=prev&oldid=1265951024 This edit] is from 29 December, and appears to be entirely original research; I cannot access all of the sources, but snippet search does not bear out the content added, and the Raj era source for the first sentence certainly does not support the content it was used for. [[Baji Pasalkar]], entirely authored by PH, is full of puffery ({{tq|"first to sacrifice his life for the cause of Swarajya"}}, and poor sources (like [http://shivchatrapati.rf.gd/single_blog.php?id=142&i=2 this blog], and [https://www.google.co.in/books/edition/Frontiers/sDJjDwAAQBAJ this book], whose blurb I leave you to judge), from which most of the article appears to be drawn. [[Appa (title)]], also entirely authored by PH, has original research in its very first sentence; the sources that I can access give passing mention to people whose names include the suffix "appa", and thus could perhaps be examples of usage, but the sources most certainly do not bear out the claim.
I will note in fairness that I cannot access all the sources for the content I checked. But after spotchecking a dozen examples I have yet to find content PH wrote that was borne out by a reliable source, so I believe skepticism is justified. We are in territory where other editors may need to spend days cleaning up some of this writing. {{U|Bishonen}} If we're in CIR territory, just a normal indefinite block seems cleanest, surely? Or were you hoping that PH would help clean up their mess, perhaps by providing quotes from sources? That could be a pathway to contributing productively, but I'm not holding my breath.

====Statement by UtherSRG====
I've mostly dealt with PH around [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ankur Warikoo (2nd nomination)]]. They do not seem to have the ability to read and understand our policies and processes. As such, a t-ban is too weak. The minimum I would support is a p-block as suggested below, though a full indef is also acceptable.

:@[[User:PerspicazHistorian|PerspicazHistorian]], that explanation of edit warring is a bit wanting. An edit war is when two or more editors revert content additions/removals repeatedly. Even a second reversion by the same editor can be considered edit warring. Best practice -- and what I highly recommend, especially for any inexperienced editor -- is ''the first time'' someone reverts an edit of yours, go to the talk page, open a section, ping the editor who reverted you, and discuss. Do you think you can commit to that?
:<small>Re: your question on why your "obvious edit" was reverted: we don't deal with content issues here, only with behavior issues, but from a very quick look, the source is 50 years old, and using a list headed "TERRORIST ORGANISATIONS LISTED IN THE FIRST SCHEDULE OF THE UNLAWFUL ACTIVITIES (PREVENTION) ACT, 1967" that includes a certain organization as a source that the organization should be described as a terrorist organization is [[WP:ORIGINAL RESEARCH]]; in their [[Special:Diff/1264084002|revert]] NXcrypto provided an edit summary of "Not a reliable source for such a contentious label.

The second is the site for a religious sect. Neither is a reliable source for explaining the concept of prasada in Wikivoice.

*A tban from IPA for PerspicazHistorian would be a relief to many editors trying to keep this difficult area in reasonable shape. However, Valereee makes a good point about 'setting a trap': it's doubtful that PH would be able to keep to a tban even if they tried in good faith. I would therefore support a p-block from article space. [[User:Bishonen|Bishonen]] | [[User talk:Bishonen|tålk]] 16:48, 29 December 2024 (UTC).
*:{{u|Vanamonde93}}, no, I don't really think PH can usefully help clean up their mess; I was following Valereee, who has been going into this in some depth, in attempting to keep some way of editing Wikipedia open for PH. It's a bit of a counsel of desperation, though; there is very little daylight between an indef and a p-block from article space. Yes, we ''are'' in CIR territory; just look at PH's [[Special:Diff/1265911217/1265912777|recent supposed evidence on this page]] for NXcrypto being "engaged in edit wars before on contentious Indian topics": one diff of an opponent complaining on NXcrypto's page, and one diff of somebody reverting NXcrypto. What do those actually prove? That NXcrypto has opponents (big surprise). So, yes, as you suggest, I'll support an indef as well. [[User:Bishonen|Bishonen]] | [[User talk:Bishonen|tålk]] 20:09, 29 December 2024 (UTC).
*Is there a length of time proposed for the p-ban or would it be indefinite? [[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] ([[User_talk:Barkeep49|talk]]) 17:06, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

*:I don't think the wording of [[WP:ECR]] allows for deletion of a page that was created by an EC user. <small>(ECR also seems to forget that anything other than articles and talkpages exists, but I think the most reasonable reading of provision A still allows for G5ing drafts at admins' discretion if the criteria are met.)</small> That said, a consensus at AE can delete a page as a "reasonable measure[ ] that [is] necessary and proportionate for the smooth running of the project". Deleting under that provision is not something to be done lightly, but I think for a case where a page's existence violates the spirit of an ArbCom restriction but not the letter, it'd be a fair time to do it.

*I would just pull EC and require the editor to apply via AE appeal for its restoration.

*I see a clear consensus here to remove the EC flag. For clarity, when I proposed a TBAN above it was because removing this flag ''is'' an ARBPIA TBAN as long as the ECR remedy remains in place; it's simply a question of whether the editor get the other privileges of EC or not. I don't see a consensus on what to do with the draft, but given that other editors have now made substantive contributions to it, I don't believe it's a good use of AE time to discuss the hypothetical further.

====Statement by Lemabeta====
Yeah, my bad. Didn't realize translation of a page of ethnographic group would count as a violation of my topic ban about "history of the Caucasus and its cultural heritage, broadly construed" I recognize my mistake. --[[User:Lemabeta|Lemabeta]] ([[User talk:Lemabeta|talk]]) 20:30, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
:Ethnographic groups and cultural heritage are '''related but distinct concepts'''. An ''ethnographic group'' refers to a '''community of people''' defined by shared ancestry, language, traditions, and cultural identity. In contrast, ''cultural heritage'' refers to the *''practices, artifacts, knowledge, and traditions preserved or inherited from the past''. But cultural heritage is indeed a component of ethnographic groups.
:So i don't believe ethnographic group should be considered as either history of the Caucasus or cultural heritage. [[User:Lemabeta|Lemabeta]] ([[User talk:Lemabeta|talk]]) 20:56, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

*{{tq| Didn't realize translation of a page of ethnographic group would count as a violation of my topic ban about "history of the Caucasus and its cultural heritage, broadly construed"}} @[[User:Lemabeta|Lemabeta]]: what did you think "the history of the Caucasus and its cultural heritage" meant? I think it's pretty obvious that that an article on an ethnic group from the Caucasus and about an ethnologist who writes about that region is covered by your topic ban.

*:Your definition of "ethnographic group" includes the phrases "shared ancestry" (i.e., history), and "shared ... traditions" and "shared ... cultural identity" (i.e., cultural heritage). Your attempt to exclude "ethnographic group" from either of the two categories in your topic ban is entirely unpersuasive, particularly since your topic ban is to be "broadly construed".

* {{re|Lemabeta}} Not every single thing you could write about an ethnic group would fall under cultural history, but that's not really relevant on the Rachvelians page, where the History section was entirely about their cultural history, even containing the words {{tqq| highlighting their ethnographic and cultural identity}}. There's a reason we use the words "[[WP:broadly construed|broadly construed]]" on most TBANs, and a reason we encourage people to act like they're TBANned from a broader area than they are. (Consider: Would you feel safe driving under a bridge where clearance is exactly the same height as your vehicle? Or would you need a few inches' gap to feel safe doing it?){{pb}}This does seem like a good-faith misunderstanding, so if you will commit to not making it again in the future, I think this can be closed with a clarification/warning. But that's an important "if". If you want to argue semantics, then the message that sends to admins is that you don't intend to comply with the TBAN, in which case the next step would be a siteblock. <span style="font-family:courier"> -- [[User:Tamzin|<span style="color:#E6007A">Tamzin</span>]]</span><sup class="nowrap">[[[User talk:Tamzin|<i style="color:#E6007A">cetacean needed</i>]]]</sup> <small>([[User:Tamzin/🤷|they|xe|🤷]])</small> 21:10, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

:That said, I'm unimpressed by Lemabeta's lawyerly distinctions above, and also by [[Special:Diff/1267592241|their apology for "accidental violations"]]. I'll AGF that they ''were'' accidental, but OTOH, they surely ''ought'' to have taken enough care to realize they were violations; compare Voorts' examples.

ShlomitLir (שלומית ליר) created their account back in 2014. The breakdown of their edits is as follows:

*2017 to 2019: 1 edit per year. None related to PIA.
*2022: 7 edits. Mostly in their userspace.
*2023: 21 edits. Again, mostly in their userspace.

* 2024: Started editing after a 10 month break at the end of October.
**Made 51 edits in October and 81 edits in November (copyedits, adding links, minor edits).
**In December, that number rose up to almost 400, including 116 in December 6 alone and 98 in December 7. Became ECR that day.
**Immediately switched to editing in PIA, namely in the [[Battle of Sderot]] article where they [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Sderot&diff=prev&oldid=1262061760 changed the infobox picture] with an unclear image with a dubious caption, and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Sderot&diff=next&oldid=1262061760 removed a template] without providing a reason why.
**They also edited the [[Use of human shields by Hamas]] article, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Use_of_human_shields_by_Hamas&diff=prev&oldid=1262833700 adding another image] with a caption not supported by the source (replaced by yet [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Use_of_human_shields_by_Hamas&diff=prev&oldid=1262933991 another image] with a contextless caption when the previous image was removed) and WP:UNDUE content [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Use_of_human_shields_by_Hamas&diff=prev&oldid=1262855377 in the lead].

They have barely surpassed 500 edits, but the gaming is obvious, highlighted by the sudden switch to editing in PIA.
More importantly, there's the issue of POV pushing. I came across [https://www.ynetnews.com/article/syf5kylb1g this article] authored by them on Ynet, once again complaining about what they perceive as an anti Israeli bias on Wikipedia.

The misleading use of images doesn't rise to the level of AE action in my view, and judging whether an addition like [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Use_of_human_shields_by_Hamas&diff=prev&oldid=1262855377 this] is UNDUE is not within AE's purview, as long as it is supported by the source.

*:The PIA5 remedy hasn't passed yet, and its interpretation is as yet unclear to me: but in my view we are already empowered to deal with biased editing, in the sense of editing that violates NPOV. What I'm not willing to do is sanction on the basis of someone's opinions alone; they have to be shown to have let their opinions get in the way of following our PAGs. [[User:Vanamonde93|Vanamonde93]] ([[User talk:Vanamonde93|talk]]) 07:44, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
* While I understand {{u|Vanamonde93}}'s concerns, I think that we are required to assess the totality of the user's contributions. Contentious topic editors are required to uphold NPOV. [[Wikipedia:Contentious topics#Guidance for editors]] places an obligation to {{xtn|Within contentious topics,… edit carefully and constructively… and… adhere to the [[WP:Five pillars|purposes of Wikipedia]]}}. The linked page provides that {{xtn|Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view… We strive for articles with an impartial tone that document and explain major points of view, giving due weight for their prominence}}. If an editor is ''only'' adding content that significantly favours one or the other side to the conflict, this is incompatible with their contentious topic obligation. That is because an editor making ''only'' one-sided edits will simply not be taking the necessary steps to ensure that the ''whole article'' is written from a neutral point of view. As their number of one-sided edits increases, the likelihood decreases that the editor is ensuring our content is neutral and impartial. Once we reach the point of being sure that they are not attempting to ensure neutrality of content, we can conclude the editor is not meeting their contentious topics obligations and we can issue a sanction. This can only be assessed with hindsight and by looking at the editor's contributions as a whole.

:: Assessing the topic area contributions of the respondent (שלומית ליר) since they became extended-confirmed {{logid|166341641|at 17:33, 8 December 2024}}, there is cause for concern. I counted 19 edits to the area conflict. Taken together, they significantly skew the articles negatively against the opposing side of the conflict:
::* [[Special:Diff/1262061030|Adding a citation for a claim that Hamas terrorists shot dead a group of Israeli tourists]].
::* [[Special:Diff/1262061760|Replacing map with a photograph of victims of violence]].
::* [[Special:Diff/1262061843|Removing an outdated maintenance tag]] which was perhaps casting doubt on the relevant section, ''Massacre of pensioners'', and [[Special:Diff/1262065677|again]].
::* [[Special:Diff/1262833301|Adding specification to claims of the use of human shield (specifying who has made the claims)]], therefore giving greater weight to the claims, in a context where the claims were already described at considerable length; [[Special:Diff/1263038492|adding another reference to that claim]]; [[Special:Diff/1263038827|and adding another]].
::* [[Special:Diff/1262833700|Adding an image contentiously captioned 'Weapons Found in a Mosque']], then [[Special:Diff/1262933991|again ''Rockets hidden at a house'']], both to the first line of the article.
::* [[Special:Diff/1262855377|Adding, without sufficient context, an assertion that a philosopher has determined that one side of the conflict is culpable]] and [[Special:Diff/1262935292|expanding other coverage of culpability of that side]].
::* On the talk pages, there has been a [[Special:Diff/1263202611|tinge of failure to AGF]] although I would be prepared to look past that (it was like meeting like). I am skipping a few further and insignificant talk page comments.
::* There are then edits to [[LGBTQ rights in the State of Palestine]]: [[Special:Diff/1265721615|inserting a reference to execution into the first sentence of the lead]]; [[Special:Diff/1265722280|adding more references to news coverage of executions of LGBT+ people by the other side of the conflict]]. At [[Houthi movement]], there is then an expansion, again of the article lead, [[Special:Diff/1265724152|to add references to terrorist attacks]] ([[Special:Diff/1265746529|with follow-up]]).
:: Assessing the edits as a whole, it is difficult not to conclude that the respondent user is failing to meet their contentious topics obligation to edit neutrally in this topic area. As the number of edits is so far limited, if a sanction is imposed, it could justifiably be light-touch.

; Additional comments by editor filing complaint :
At BLPN, there has been consensus that the version of the article describing Ritter as a "child sex offender" in the second sentence of the article is problematic, as he did not actually have sexual contact with a child, only a police officer impersonating one. [[Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard#Scott_Ritter_Biography_-_Noncompliance_with_MOS_and_BLP_Guidelines]]. Luganchanka has been persistently edit warring against this apparent consensus. For which he has been warned by {{Ping|NatGertler}} [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ALuganchanka&diff=1269047181&oldid=1269034364], which he subequently blanked [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Luganchanka&diff=next&oldid=1269047181] There has been persistent objection to descrbing Ritter as a "child sex offender" in the opening sentences of the article going back to at least August [[Talk:Scott_Ritter#First_sentence]], but Luganchanka persistently cites a "consensus" for its inclusion that as far as I can tell does not seem to exist, with Luganchanka aggressively editing to enforce its inclusion. [[User:Hemiauchenia|Hemiauchenia]] ([[User talk:Hemiauchenia|talk]]) 20:26, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
: Luganchanka's response is disingenuous and misleading. Look at the [[Talk:Scott_Ritter#First_sentence]] discussion I linked above. Nobody other than Luganchanka thinks that Ritter should be described as a "child sex offender" in the opening sentences of the article. The dispute isn't about whether or not the convictions should be mentioned in the lead at all or not, it's specifically about the use of the phrase "child sex offender", and there is no consensus to include that as far as I can tell, despite Luganchanka's vociferous claims to the contrary.

====Statement by Luganchanka====
The intro on the [[Scott Ritter]] page had remained largely the same for several months, as you will see on the talkpage it is an intro approved, and reverted to, by multiple senior editors. There has been a recent flurry of activity / edits. While I [[WP: assume good faith]], it does look like those edits are attempting to downplay / whitewash Ritter's sexual offence conviction(s). I have not been 'aggressive' at all, rather I have simply referred contentious edits to the talkpage to build consensus, attempting to do my duty as a good Wikipedia editor.[[User:Luganchanka|Luganchanka]] ([[User talk:Luganchanka|talk]]) 20:40, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
Please see the [[Talk:Scott_Ritter]], where there has been a clear consensus reached, on more than one occasion, and by senior wikipedia editors, that Ritter's sexual offence conviction should be included in the lead to the article. My edits have simply been aimed at ensuring this consensus reached is maintained in the article.[[User:Luganchanka|Luganchanka]] ([[User talk:Luganchanka|talk]]) 20:44, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
====
Editor's edits today focused on trying to main a negative descriptor of what subject believed, despite it not being in the three sources that were listed (nor in the old version they ultimately reverted to.) Efforts were first trying to simply restate the claim, then trying to source it to an opinion piece (problem) from the Washington Examiner (also a bit of a problem, per [[WP:RSP]]), then trying to state as a fact what had merely been stated in a non-prime article as an accusation. BLP concern was pointed out repeatedly via edit summary and on Talk page. Removal of unsourced contentious BLP claims and even false claims is not "whitewashing" despite how editor wishes to depict it, it is in accord with our practices. -- [[User:NatGertler|Nat Gertler]] ([[User talk:NatGertler|talk]]) 21:08, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
