An Accusation of an Anti-antidisestablishmentarian-ism-ist Action

[edit]

My edit of the Antidisestablishmentarianism (word) article was reverted by DavidWBrooks (talk) in good faith.

I replied to this reversion as follows:

I am not really sure what an anti-antidisestablishmentarian-ism-ist is. But for some reason, you are against whatever it is when you reverted my edit to the Antidisestablishmentarianism (word) article.
Your edit note says, "As the article says, the word could be lengthened in many ways - we don't need to list anymore".
Uh? Who is "we"? I want to know who these other anti-antidisestablishmentarian-ism-ists are, they need to be held to account.
And, the article "said/says" no such thing until you added "in many ways" in a subsequent post. No fair changing the rules on the fly to justify your anti-antidisestablishmentarian-ism-ist-ism.
What is wrong with listing more words of the Antidisestablishmentarianism ilk? We need all we can find. After all, Wikipedia is about being encyclopedically inclusive with all knowledge that is fit to print.
Sir, in good faith, I demand satisfaction.

Proponents in favor of including "antidisestablishmentarianismist" unite in support so as to correct this situation.

My summary of my revision: " As the article says, the word could be lengthened in many ways - we don't need to list any more." I suspect

[[User:Osomite|Osomite] is having a bit of fun with his "complaint". - DavidWBrooks (talk) 22:35, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Seems legit :-]

[edit]

Don't know whether this is helpful, but I recently noticed a longer word that was not coined based on length: psychoneuroendocrinologically — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.29.63.96 (talk) 17:58, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
