"Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted." Vandalism? What on earth are you on about? I did one thing & one thing only. I removed the words "low grade" from immediately before the words "British politician" at the beginning of the first sentence. Calling someone - anyone at all - "low grade" is a subjective opinion, and not an objective fact - and as such has no place in an encyclopedia. Any sensible, logical person couldn't do anything other than agree with me on this point. If I'd known that by doing so I'd invoke the wrath of some self-appointed guardian of what does & does not constitute a sensible removal of subjective opinion, I wouldn't have bothered. I make not dissimilar, very minor edits to various pages from time to time. Either pages that clearly contain subjective opinion that shouldn't be there, and/or to pages that fall within my areas of expertise. Never before have I received a "telling off" for doing so. How anyone could perceive the removal of the phrase "low grade" as "vandalism" utterly beyond me.
