Protect request to resolve revision war on article Golden Team

Resolved. Not a Simple Wikipedia issue. Pmlineditor (t · c · l) 17:31, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi, sorry to bother you - a revision war seems to have started on the article Golden Team, with myself and user GrandMariner seemingly hellbent on cancelling each others changes out. I consider my changes to be editing to make the article readable; he seems to regard it as his own personal page which no-one else can change. I also suspect that this user is also user OliverTwist88 and GallopingMajor, judging by the comments he has made on the discussion board.

Can someone please review, and either either make a call on the edits, or else protect the page? I am happy to abide by any final decision! 188.221.10.10 (talk) 10:08, 19 February 2011 (UTC) (a.k.a Coopuk)

Hi, this is an English Wikipedia issue, not Simple's. --Bsadowski1 10:20, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

You should probably report the incident on their edit-warring board or their arbitration requests board. --Eptalon (talk) 10:26, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Just a note if anything similar arises in the future. ArbCom is the last resort of dispute resolution on en, so it'd be best not to point people there. ANI would be a more appropriate venue. Goodvac (talk) 02:23, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2011/Category:Communes in France

Resolved. Closed by Barras

Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2011/Category:Communes in France is overdue 9 days. Since many of the most active admins have participated in this discussion, I'm posting it here so this is brought to the attention of admins who have not participated so they can close it. Thanks, Goodvac (talk) 02:21, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. I've closed it. Haven't had a look at it since I casted my vote. Done now. -Barras (talk) 10:00, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Edit War

Resolved.

Please see this user... I will warn the user, but I don't know if any other action should be taken, the user is making unconstructive edits to the article about Lucy the dinosaur. Cheers. Mìthrandir 22:30, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

If you're worried about violating the three revert rule, it wouldn't apply here because the edits being made here are obvious vandalism, and reverting obvious vandalism is an exception (you can revert that as many times as you have to). Kansan (talk) 22:41, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

In addition to Kansan's response: since both of his edits were vandalism, you should report him to WP:VIP (vandalism in progress), for future reference. WP:AN isn't for vandalism most of the time. :) --@jersey⁺ 22:44, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

To add to what Jersey said really, users only should report to WP:VIP if they keep vandalizing after their final warning. We don't normally block after just one instance of vandalism (except in some instances like obvious socking, etc.) Kansan (talk) 22:47, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind next time... Cheers. Mìthrandir 23:04, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Mount Cayley volcanic field

Resolved. Speedy deleted. Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 18:15, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Mount Cayley volcanic field claims to be a 'featured article'. Seems it's come over from enWP without simplifiation, but with its FA star. Red links everywhere. Macdonald-ross (talk) 18:06, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

I've deleted it under A3. Maximillion Pegasus (talk) 18:12, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
