Brexit revert
Did you check the talk page before your revert on the Brexit page? I asked for a halt to the reverts and a (continued) discussion. Just reverting (when there are valid reasons for a lot of the content that you reverted) isn't going to help.

 * Yes, I did. Removing 2k worth of sourced material on what appear to be quite flimsy grounds (VoxEU is not a "lousy source" and calling attributed statements by Oxford economists "special pleading" is meaningless nonsense) can't be allowed to stand unchallenged. The bold removals have been reverted, now it's time to discuss. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 23:43, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reply. The bold removals were of bold additions. "special pleading" refers in part to economists defending themselves and relates to non-Brexit-specific comments on this not being relevant to the Brexit article. That's a valid point. As is the sequencing of the sections being, let's say, 'unusual'. And so on. Your revert also removed at least one sourcing tag, which is a problem. So, while your blanket revert may have addressed some excesses, it reintroduced others and removed some highlighting of problems. Well, we'll see if the NPOV tag has any effect on people actually trying to find agreement. EddieHugh (talk) 00:24, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
