Let's just take a concensus, and leave all the talk behind. Just write a good reason following your reasoning and sign your name under the headline in which you agree in. Please refrain from making stupid votes, thanks.

::::User pages are part of this wiki, not a peoples personal corner of the internet to do whatever they want with. We allow a large degree of freedom with these.
