You have shown no evidence that you are willing to do this. I am still waiting for you to respond to a number of postings detailing the problems posed by your proposals (both on the talk pages and on the mailing list). Since you have failed to respond so far, I'm still concerned about these very same things.

This is wrong. You made proposals advocating sweeping changes to an article. Then, I responded explaining why I was skeptical, which was the proper route for me to take. You never responded to my points. Instead, you assumed right off the bat that I'm not "very good at collaborating" because I had concerns about your approach to reorganizing an article that you yourself admit to never having read. This is where the break in the rational-give-and-take first appeared.
