Anthony is right, of course. I removed an item from the list, and posted on the talk page of the article, and on this mailing list, signalling my alarm that the item, in its present state, had been on the list in the first place.

Wrong.
The process for the removal of featured article status is documented at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_review - you do not have the right to unilaterally strip FA status.
Whether I do or do not have the right to "unilaterally strip FA status" is a chimera. I never attempted to do that. What I did was remove a severely damaged article from the list of [featured] articles.
Errrrr.....
