I'm not seeking a reconsideration of the userbox 'issue' here (thank God/[insert alternative deity of your choice here] that's over), but it shows just how easy it is to ignore policy if you characterise those seeking to uphold policy as trolls, wikilawyers and process wonks.
There's a difference between process wonks and policy wonks:
- Process wonks favour process over policy - Policy wonks favour policy over process
A process wonk will often get the wrong result using the right method. A policy wonk will get the right result using the wrong method. Remember, it's not the letter of the rules which counts, it's the spirit of the rules; hence, making 4 reverts in 25 hours counts as breaking 3RR.
