That does not excuse reversion without discussion.  Even taking as an
assumption that Danny had been acting on his own behalf, Erik's
actions could easily have been the start of a wheel war, and were
inappropriate by any reasonable standard.  WP:OFFICE has nothing to do
with that; wheel warring is still wheel warring.
