Thanks for the good summary of the arguments. It helped me see where some people were coming from, though I still have my reservations.

As this practice (and the actual manual of style guideline) are currently in dispute, you should probably back off of unlinking dates until the dispute is resolved.

Use of "iNtuition" in Myers-Briggs Type Indicator articles
Hi Colonies Chris, I noticed that you changed "iNtuition" to "Intuition" in the ESFJ article using AWB. Please note that "iNtuition" is the correct usage in Myers-Briggs terminology. The letter 'N' represents intuition, while the letter 'I' represents introversion. Thanks! ThreeOfCups (talk) 23:17, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Thank you
Belated thanks for fixing up the references in the Descriptive psychology article. A definite improvement. Anscombe (talk) 20:31, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Warning regarding unlinking of dates
As this practice (and the actual manual of style guideline) are currently in dispute, you should probably back off of unlinking dates until the dispute is resolved. Prior ArbCom cases have looked unfavorably on editors who attempt to force through disputed changes on a large scale as you (and other editors) are doing. Specifically, Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration/Episodes_and_characters_2/Proposed_decision#Fait_accompli, which I quote:
Editors who are collectively or individually making large numbers of similar edits, and are apprised that those edits are controversial or disputed, are expected to attempt to resolve the dispute through discussion. It is inappropriate to use repetition or volume in order to present opponents with a fait accompli or to exhaust their ability to contest the change. This applies to many editors making a few edits each, as well as a few editors making many edits.
