A single, simple statement on Slim's user or

Steve, could you point out exactly what I have been "rampantly
reverting" in this regard?
Between 03:22 and 22:12 on July 27, at least 8 questions about
That Slashdot Thread were posted by various users on Slim's talk
page, and systematically removed by you, ElinorD, and Crum375.
Wait a minute, so 3 different editors removed a total of 8 questions.
Out of curiosity, exactly how many did I remove during that "rampant
reverting"? No need to reply, the answer is one.
One of the things that has marred these kinds of discussions is
rampant hyperbole. Another is that far too much of it is directed at
slamming other editors, rather than discussing issues. I don't see any
particular reason this discussion would add any value to the wikien-l
thread, but if people feel that they must discuss it, let's try to do
it in a way that generates light, not heat.
