 * The question is, why would I. This is not FAC. --Jakob (talk)  aka Jakec  01:59, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh, I see, it's been approved already, so I assume that was only a suggestion, not a demand. Nvm. --Jakob (talk)  aka Jakec  02:00, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I do not demand anything during reviews. I do try to suggest improvements, in an effort to aid my fellow editors, as I assume they have pride in their work. And no, I have not yet approved this nomination. Thank you for pointing out my erroneous tick.Georgejdorner (talk) 02:06, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Is this approved or not? Because I am not going to do what you say, as it won't be an improvement. --Jakob (talk)  aka Jakec  13:19, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
 * "Asserting that the technical interpretation of the policies and guidelines should override the underlying principles they express."
