I put a message on his Talk page that he should discuss it here or at the Village Pump.  I also reverted the reversions he made to the biographical pages he has created recently.

Whatever the value of DW's suggestion for tabular formats for
biographical entries, DW (Arthur's little sister?) did not respond to
my invitation to discuss it on [[Wikipedia_talk:Manual of Style]]. He
had suggested it on some random biographical talk page. With all due
respect for Zoe, her talk page is not the place to rewrite the Manual
of Style either.

I think, by the way, that the idea is a poor one, and spending a lot
of time altering biographical entries to remove significant
biographical information from the first paragraph is a poor use of
time and energy. But I am willing to discuss it, and I imagine others
would be to, in the right place.
