:<strike>Respectfully, none of the mildly-patronizing comments you left on my talk page cited any community-approved policy stating that tags cannot be removed just before working on an article rather than just after.

See the warning text of the {{]}} sequence of warnings, which say that it is inappropriate to remove the templates without fixing the problem or indicating the reason for removal in the edit summary.

Community ban: nominating articles for deletion

Per community discussion at WP:ANI (), you have been indefinitely banned from nominating articles for deletion through any means, including WP:PROD, WP:CSD and WP:AFD. You are permitted to participate in deletion discussions that have been launched by somebody else. Although several participants in the conversation felt that an expiration of six months might be appropriate, there was insufficient consensus to put an endpoint on the ban, which will remain in effect until successfully appealed.
