`, 27 July  2007 (UTC)  :::::: What I am getting at is that it appears from my observations that the ``your work will be mercilessly edited`` rule is used as a reason to revert someone else's editing of your the rule-citer's work. Example Joe writes text. Jane mercilessly edits Joe's text. Joe, offended, reverts Jane's edits back to Joe's original text. Jane, seeing all of her work deleted, objects. Joe replies, ``Hey, if you can't take the heat, stay out of the Kitchen,`` and condescendingly ``points out`` to Jane, who is quite familiar with the rules, btw, ``Welcome to Wikipedia, please read the rules, particularly the one that says your work will be mercilessly edited`` preempting Jane's justification of her work by such citation, which she thought was implicit anyway. There you have it. How to cite the mercilessly edited rule.  16:45`
