The first two sentences of this thread. If you didn't understand what I meant, that's fine, but I did address this issue.

Regarding your point about conciseness, you're not looking at the big picture here. Byfield's example of a good history is meant as a general grasp of the character. Yes, it's longer, because it's meant to serve a broader idea of who the character is and what he's done, while simultaneously avoiding any insignificant actions like turning around and saying "I'm thinking". That is conciseness, getting overly specific is not.

Now we could argue this for hours, but I really don't see the point. Again, we ask, even if you don't like our sitewide rules, that you respect them because they keep everything consistent. We never mind answering questions but debating us on well-established standards doesn't really lend itself to anything productive.
