Just to make this clear:

I'm not really sure I'm qualified to pick and choose on my own what among his 
changes is acceptable or not. That's the whole issue with them, there are 
extensive changes, some of which replace previous specified tagging with 
fundamental different one, and none of them have in any way be discussed.

There may well be parts of his changes that are fine, but I can't just make 
that determination on my own. That's that same as him just making the changes 
undiscussed in the first place.

I can probably using the history figure out what the source of the page should 
look like without any of his changes, if that's what's meant with "agreed 
state".

Cheers,
Thorsten

Hi all
Can I suggest the following

1 get community support from talk au for this process
2 Contact Aaron and get his agreement
3 Thorsten rolls back the wiki to an agreed state
4 Dian tidys up the wiki
5 Aaron does not edit the wiki until Dian has finished
6 we do not call for DWG intervention unless a party will not follow the agreed 
process

Tony
