How does one purge debate while at the same announcing where it is in the opening paragraph?
Evidently he feels it is profoundly lacking in prominence.
You didn't answer my question.
Er, yes I did. That's three times I have now. Please go back and read the posts, I'm not going to rephrase it a fourth time.
Purge, in case you were unaware, means to remove. The only thing that has happened, on the advice of, Rowan Collins, is that it has been _moved_ so as discussion about technical implications is not drowned by Gerard's shrill.
Are you assuming bad faith on Gerard's part?
You used the word purge. Please explain what has been purged. I would hate to think any of this discussion has been removed from Wikimedia.
From a very relevant page. You can hardly claim a contentious move is not
being planned when you are actively planning it, and having such a page give the impression it is anything other than highly contentious is (evidently) problematic in itself.
