I do not believe that reiterating my objection to past good work, by
me and others, being written out of the chapter's history is
"quibbling", much less "over details".

Hmm, I recall an earlier thread on this list which was pretty much devoted to contention over how the history of Wikipedians in residence got written. This thread is intended to help a staff member do her job.

It would be a shame, certainly, if WiRs became one of those "don't bring that up again" topics.
