::::::: I expect you to post your proposal on Facebook that all changes to the Mathematical Theory pages be validated by the Discord group first. [[User:Mike Battaglia|Mike Battaglia]] ([[User talk:Mike Battaglia|talk]]) 18:30, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

:::::::: Thank you for answering my question. That's good to know and I agree with your conclusion.

:::::::: I don't think I'm twisting things at all. Please re-read what I wrote carefully. I specifically acknowledged that you ''did'' post on Facebook. My concern was that you did ''not'' post to a group that was important to post to: the Xenwiki Work Group. Perhaps I should have taken a moment to acknowledge that — as you point out here — in the group that you ''did'' post to on Facebook, there indeed was no disagreement with your proposal, which was a good sign.

:::::::: Re: "super-admin", what I meant was that you have more user roles than anyone else on this wiki, and no one has any role that you do not have. I know "super-admin" is not a technical term. That's why I accompanied it with "or whatever your role is exactly". I'm not an expert in the exact roles' powers. I suppose I wasn't doing this in the most polite way, so I apologize about that. I was only trying to convey the whole "the president shouldn't be above the law" sort of sentiment, that's all. I'm sure you can understand that as a major contributor to the wiki who tries to be methodical and careful about getting wide approval for major changes I try to make, I'd like to see that other major contributors follow the same process.

:::::::: I don't want you to swap meet and join back. I hope I've been clear that I support the change, and I'm very glad that you made this proposal, and that you did the work to make it happen. But I'll praise and express my gratitude to you for it again. I'm honestly really, really excited that we've got it the way it is now. You're the man. Thanks again.

:::::::: Also, thanks for the recommendation: yes, that is a good idea to make a dedicated post on the Xenwiki Work Group to recommend that people find a way to run big changes by the very active XA Discord server in addition to posting there. I believe this practice has been recommended frequently in recent discussions in that group. I don't think of it as my own proposal so much as something that people have reminded ''me'' was good practice, if one wants to avoid thrashing in the edits on the wiki.

:::::::: And I still think it would be a good idea for you to post to the Xenwiki Work Group about this meet/join swap, and its symbiology. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 19:01, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
