:I'm sorry, I found that you had in fact replied, but due to the location (and the general disorganization of talk pages) I neglected to notice it until now. I have answered your rebuttal and I will give you some time to formulate a response (if you should wish to do so) before possibly adding the comment back.

Secondly, if you have any suggestions for why [[WikiIndex]] should not allow certain criticisms, or how to objectively judge which ones should or should not be allowed, your reasoning on this matter would be appreciated in [[WikiIndex:Policies_and_Guidelines#How_sympathetic_or_critical.3F_.28Who_decides.3F.29|this section of the policy page]].

:Yeah, quit with your power grab | :Yeah, quit with your power grab. You've made up some lame policy page with virtually no input from the site's owners, and it's barely readable. You fail at "wiki discussion". [[User:Huw Powell|Huw Powell]] 00:50, 4 September 2009 (EDT) | ||
