No completely false. I am not going to edit war with you. I have sent you an explained rationale on your page and have brought up some valid points in how your adjustment to this page is less informed. You have also failed to make any statement on the reasons for your changes. If you would like to discuss a compromise on a talk page i'm happy too. I have tried to engage in this with you however you have ignored me. I'm reverting you're changes as they don't benefit the informity of this page.
