Just checked out the changes.

"a page barren of any useful information, bearing so little that the wiki won't even hurt if that page was outright removed"

(as the page was rather small even with examples, combined into Character attributes with math info to get better views) updated since my last visit (undo) (VisualEditor)]

"[…]take that information found out there on the Internet and add it to a wiki that so desperately lacks it[…]"

I gotta admit that while the redirect smells like sidestepping the issue to stay one's ground, I fully welcome this compromise even if you do not publicly acknowledge my reasoning yourself.

I also have to admit that this is probably one of, if not the smoothest an exchange with an administrative representative has gone for me in about a decade. Sincerely, bravo! You must be new in power.

As I've mentioned above, my cynical expression of class antagonism is directed towards a larger collective you represent.

Personally though, I'm impressed. Through benefit of the doubt I can see how your abuse of power was in good conscience even though I still fully condemn it in a formal regard. You did break a rule you were placed to uphold and be subject to.

Still, if I get to encounter enough guys like you in power, I may start inching against the prejudice your class have shown to deserve so far.

And in anticipation of an incoming reproach I'll let you know I did, in fact, start out way back in the day, trying to be civil and unbiased towards admins and moderators in trying to reason with them — that worked right about never and always ended up in the "ruler and their retinue" ganging up on me despite any reasoning, having taken civility as a sign of weakness.

And that's why I have to go all out "guns blazing" every time to get anywhere.

You can get a glimpse of my motives from this free-form citation: "Any and all of the rights and freedoms that the oppressed class possesses have been secured in its struggle against the oppressive one, and it only retains those among them for which it continues to fight."
