Diff of edit warring / 3RR warning: [1]

Diff of attempt to resolve dispute on article talk page: Multiple comments on Bosomba's talk page, such as [2], now deleted; plus discussions at Talk:Twi etc

Diff of ANEW notice posted to user's talk page: [3]

Comments:

@Austronesier: and I have reverted Bosomba multiple times for the same edits on the same articles, for failing to respect his own sources, explaining that we need to follow those sources, and we've gotten thanks from other editors for doing so. Bosomba has conceded a few points, but it's like pulling teeth. He has provided a couple of nice sources in Dolphyne, and I now use those sources almost exclusively for my edits, and because of this I have abandoned some of my earlier positions, which were based on less reliable sources. Yet Bosomba only follows Dolphyne where she agrees with him, and ignores her where she doesn't. For example, he insists that Bono is a literary dialect of Akan even though Dolphyne says it isn't even written, and AFAICT he has provided no sources that the situation has changed since she wrote [which was decades ago; the situation could easily have changed]. He also insists that Bono is a single dialect; Dolphyne says that the 'Bono dialect' is actually a cluster of dialects, with as much internal diversity as other clusters of Akan dialects that have individual identities, that is, are considered to be separate dialects. Bosomba's argument is that since Dolphyne calls it the 'Bono dialect' before going on to explain that it's actually a dialect cluster, 'dialect' takes precedence and we need to follow that. I don't know if that's obstinacy or incompetence, but it's a refusal to follow his own sources. [There are other inaccuracies that he repeatedly restores with his reverts, but I don't know which are intentional.] The other major contention is that Twi is named afteer a Bono king named Twi. Bosomba has provided two sources. One does not say what he says it does, and he adamantly refuses to provide a quotation from it that would support his position. [In case we both missed where it supports him.] The other source he does quote from, but neither of us have access to it, and given Bosomba's apparent incompetence, we don't trust that he's quoting it accurately -- especially since he insists on keeping the first source despite it failing verification. There are other issues, such as the definition/scope of the name 'Twi', where he will only accept one definition, but I haven't had the time to delve into the sources for that.

Comments:

A few days ago, I happened to read Sima Kotecha, and found so many grammar errors that the article was almost unreadable. I fixed them all. Searching in the article's history, they had all been introduced by one now-banned editor in a likely act of vandalism.

For no apparent reason, the editor I am reporting has repeatedly restored all the errors I fixed to the article. They have given no explanation for their actions in edit summaries, and have simply deleted my posts when I asked them why. They have not been content to simply revert my edits; they have also sought to get the article protected with a shockingly dishonest report ([17]), and unfortunately an administrator obliged. So, the article is once again in a shocking and unreadable state. I suggest that significant action needs to be taken against the user I am reporting for their totally pointless edit warring, deliberate harm to the article's quality, and bad faith abuse of Wikipedia tools and processes. 2A00:23C8:D30D:7C00:64ED:3C90:5AB4:BE56 (talk) 13:16, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

The article is not semi-protected; it's pending changes protected. As I described above, that is thanks to a shockingly dishonest report by this user, whose edit warring you are apparently condoning. 2A00:23C8:D30D:7C00:64ED:3C90:5AB4:BE56 (talk) 14:55, 1 March 2025 (UTC)

Comments:

Also please see the first, and second edits that the user made attempting to add the term "russophilia" to the article and change "is divided on" to "is opposed to" Ukraine aid. This user themselves started a talk page thread asking if the changes could be made (Talk:Republican Party (United States) § Discussion: Can we call the Republican Party's foreign policy as Russophilia and opposed to Ukraine?) but continues to make the change.

There are multiple users who have responded to that talk page section with reservations or outright opposition to the changes being proposed, including (courtesy pings) User:The Four Deuces, User:GlowstoneUnknown, User:GoodDay, User:Simonm223, User:Springee, and myself. The level at which there has been opposition ranges from insufficient sourcing, to generally "problematic", to outright opposition. By my count, there is only one user that supports the desired edits without reservation (courtesy ping), User:HiLo48, and one or two others who have expressed they may be okay with the edits but are undecided at the time. The user reported has now claimed that it's a "hill [they're] willing to (figuratively) die on", which to me is a clear indication that they intend to continue to edit war if necessary.

Though by my count they are only at 2 reverts in the last 24 hours (assuming you count the middle diff as a re-addition), they are at a total of 5 attempts in the past few days to try and change the article to say what they want even over significant opposition/reservation on the talk page. I'm not sure if this is better suited for WP:AE as it is a contentious topic (WP:CTOP/AP), but I believe some action needs taken. This user appears to understand that edit warring is prohibited and is a long time editor, who has been previously made aware of this topic being a contentious topic - which make me think a warning for this instance would not be helpful. If it is thought AE is better, please advise and I will file there instead. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez | me | talk to me! 00:28, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

I am not opposed to inclusion if sufficient sources can be found but, as things stand, no such sources have been found. And I looked a little bit myself. Simonm223 (talk) 00:33, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

I agree with Berchanhimez that JohnAdams' actions are inappropriate, their decision to open a discussion page thread and, when faced with opposition to their edits (at least in the form they were being implemented), to reinstate their changes non-consensually, isn't productive and could be described as disruptive. – GlowstoneUnknown (Talk) 00:38, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

Please read my response below. It appears clear to me that the Republican Party is supporting Vladimir Putin's war of aggression that violated international law, and are espousing outright false narratives about the war.

This isn't the forum for a Wikpedia content dispute to be discussed, this is about your conduct as an editor and the actions you took in editing Republican Party (United States). – GlowstoneUnknown (Talk) 00:42, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

I'm the user in question. The Russian invasion of Ukraine is a contentious, extended-confirmation protected topic. This issue is extremely serious and it appears objectively clear to me that Trump and the Republican Party are engaged in historical negationism and espousing Russian disinformation about the invasion. This isn't about political views on a contentious issue like say abortion, but about Trump and Republicans espousing outright lies about what occurred.

• Trump accused Zelenskyy being a "dicator" who "should have never let the invasion happen."
• As I write this, it appears Trump has at least temporarily cut off all aid to Ukraine. It's clear to me that Trump is betraying Ukraine for Russia. US pauses military aid to Ukraine, says White House (Reuters) JohnAdams1800 (talk) 00:39, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

User keeps reverting my edits with little to no explanation.

This report is already stale as the last edit by BerwickKent was made on Feb 4. I hadn't noticed until today as Ramgoolam's article was no longer on my watch list. However, I said in this ANI thread that I'd be reporting if the slow motion edit war started back up. User:Nikhilrealm was previously involved in this edit war as well, but waited for over a week after contacting BK on the talk page before reverting the page. I have notified both editors of this report, though I'm keeping BerwickKent as the focus.Taffer😊💬_(she/they) 20:34, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

Declined Stale as noted. Finding the original stable version is not what we do here. Daniel Case (talk) 22:06, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

@Daniel Case I may have misunderstood what was necessary for "Previous version reverted to". Would this version when you protected the page have been considered the last stable version? I didn't include a particular diff since the edit warring behavior dates all the way back to around October, which would have also removed months of constructive edits. Taffer😊💬_(she/they) 22:27, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

And apologies for keeping a declined report going, I just have a feeling I'll need to make another report in the future over this(less stale next time since the article is now on my watch list for the next year) Taffer😊💬_(she/they) 22:42, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
