::{{tq|''I trust that some of what's in C, and is well sourced, can be worked back in after the drama dies down.''}} Oh, no doubt. In fact, the drama seems to have died down already -- it seems likely that the whole thing started because of . Which was in turn a response to previous attempts to distract me from Asian Month, which has unfortunately worked as it doesn't seem like I'll get much more than ten articles out by the end of the month, which is well behind the current lead and doesn't even break the top five -- the would have by itself brought me close to being the first editor to claim the top spot more than once. Now that the editathon is essentially over, it seems unlikely that there will be any more drama on this or other such articles for the foreseeable future. ] (<small>]]</small>) 09:19, 28 November 2019 (UTC) |

:::I'm not going to touch anything in your second or third paragraphs. As for the first -- are we talking about ''mottai'' or ''mottainashi''? No one has ever argued that either word doesn't have a religious sense, and indeed my new favourite source Hasegawa is quite open about the fact that {{tq|''inexpedient or reprehensible towards a god, buddha, noble or the like''}} is the original sense of the word ''mottainashi'', so the claim that you are here to defend the view that ''mottai'' was used in Buddhist texts is ... bizarre. ] (<small>]]</small>) 06:04, 23 November 2019 (UTC) |
