Hoi,
When a message has nothing specific about the nl.wikipedia, and both 
messages are good. It makes absolute sense to remove the local messages 
because this allows for upgrades when they happen for a message. I do 
not agree that he necessarily did wrong, quite to the contrary, I see 
ample room for it having been a great piece of work. Now, what does it 
take for people to first learn about the why, what and how WITHOUT 
feeling this need to start "educating"? Please assume that things are 
done in good faith.

The fact that several people comment does not necessarily imply that 
something is wrong.

Thanks,
