Hi!

I apologize if we sound mean, because we do not intend to do so. There seems to be a lot of miscommunication between us and you about why we think some of your contributions were not necessary. The manual of style is supposed to be a guide, and if something isn't mentioned it means that it would be best to contact an admin to reclarify before making radical changes like the ones you were making (adding pictures may look clean and modern to you, but in wikitext coding, which many of us admins use, it is difficult to edit pages with the additional text to code in the picture).

I don't mean to disrespect you, but your contributions and your attitude towards us gives off a sense of entitlement, like you deserve to be constantly recognized because of your contributions to the wiki (I begun to get that impression when you posted about the editor of the month idea after you begun to really participate in the wiki). Sometimes, when we try to provide constructive feedback, it appears like you take it personally and get defensive instead of using it to get better at your own wiki work (there's always room for growth -I'm even learning new things every day for writing and managing a wiki). I don't know if our definitions of respect are different. I personally see respecting an editor as respecting their personal beliefs that their contributions are important (and other beliefs they might have), but an important part of respect for me is also giving them the opportunities to grow as an editor. It seems like our views on respect aren't a complete match, which could be why we've been having so many disagreements about us being mean to you
