Feb 2, 2017 at 15:57 | comment | added | Erik | @Tanner you don't need 10k rep for the revision history. You can see it on the question here: dba.stackexchange.com/posts/162688/revisions Notice the comments on the revisions for revision 4 and 7. The OP clearly did not want these edits and was clearly asking Evan to stop. Max also pointed this out in a comment above. | |

All fair critiques on my own behavior. I typically tag things when I know what the questioner is looking for and what the answer consists of to ease other people finding it (dupe checking). In my own mind, the ctas is likely to help those wanting to see an example of a UNION in a CTAS.

@EvanCarroll: I think adding the DDL made sense, although there was no need to replace the original presentation. And I can see how the original title might have looked awkward to you, I just also can see how that could have materially changed the question in the OP's eyes. I disagree with the ctas tag's relevance but regardless of that I perfectly believe that it was an edit in good faith. Only you needn't have thrust your view of things on the OP like that. (Saying this based on the review history alone, no idea what was going on in the deleted comments or whatever is behind the scenes.)

Feb 1, 2017 at 16:28 | comment | added | Evan Carroll | I edited a question in good faith to add DDL (CTAS). The user, clearly uninformed, complained and JColebrand removed it. There was no malice. There was no violation of being not nice. Either the users of the site were going to get a question improved with SQL-Standard DDL as is preferable by all Database Administrators, or they were going to get a useless textual table. If I lost that "fight", it's ok, but he deleted my comment explaining my downvote and vote-to-close, and he deleted my answer too. Is that a proper use of moderation? If so, feel free to defend it here with any "details." | |
