It is a policy issue when I try to do something, I
explain *why* I do it on Brion page, and in the
comment box,

and that without any consideration with what I tried
to do, you revert all without even taking care to
check why I did it, without taking care to ask why I
did it on the talk page of the page in question in
case you didnot understand.

What I did (but left unfinished for it took me quite
some time just to do that, and even adding something
on the talk page would have taken about 10 mn to avoid
getting things messed) was utterly discarded and
labelled destruction by you, and is now unrecoverable.

I consider having many different propositions done on
the same page is useless, they could be on separate
pages. That whole page is a total mess, and it is very
hard to see the different arguments. All the arguments
are not even there. Nobody is doing the job. I tried
to start it. And it was dismissed as inopportune.
Without consideration.

When edits are reverted without consideration, that's
a policy issue.
