^No, it isn't. Someone reverted the self-demonstrating form back in after TRS split it off. I've restored the page to the non-self-demonstrating form, but kept the folders.

Adam Kalb and zakalb are the people who made the edits.

This is why people need to leave edit reasons. The person who did the change didn't bother to state that it was by TRS decision or link to the thread. It's no surprise that someone came along and reverted it.

Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.

I know I've said it before, but we do need to make leaving edit reasons compulsory.

I agree. Is there a tech wishlist thread for that already?

I've seen other wikis detect edits with no edit reason and prompt you before saving like "Hey, you didn't leave an edit reason, are you sure you don't want to leave an edit reason?"
