| Expanding on the discussion over there ... I think, from some of your previous comments, that we might share a common affinity for things being done ''the right way''.

| :{{ping|Ryk72}}, yes, I certainly have a fondness for process, in all its multifarious forms. And I can get on board with the platform you present. I too am peeved by vote tallies. That's not how things are supposed to work! But even our mutual peeving is not, to me, reason enough to remove a comment. As I see it, many less-than-brilliant things are said on Misplaced Pages, and most deserve to stand. It's a stretch for me to see the offending section as 'disruptive' when collapsed. I understand your issue about the drive-by nature of the comment, but I still don't think that rises to the level of removal. We both know the light/heat ratio on all things Gamergate is suboptimal. It's ] come to digital life. I'm not quite sure where I'm headed with that, so I will simply say have a wonderful day. ] (]) 16:05, 30 September 2016 (UTC) | |||

| :{{reply to|Koncorde}}, I apologize, I'm not sure I'll be of much help. There are some pretty reliable sources which call SRS "controversial." Now I think that controversy is all about denizens of less salubrious subreddits being, for lack of a better term, jerks, but unfortunately, whether for good or bad reasons, it seems like a fair characterization given the sources.

| :Hello {{u|Doug Weller}}! I basically agree, but it's a bit more complicated than that, as it seems "artefact" is something of a recent British preference, and both spellings are viable in Britain, while "artifact" is dramatically preferred stateside (see, e.g., https://writingexplained.org/artefact-vs-artifact-difference ). As such, I am all in for the "i", but certainly not something about which I have strong feelings (like other minor grammatical trifles).
