I'm a morbidly obese individual, so I know about "personal attacks". It's frustrating to be shunned for no other reason than suffering from that particular disease. If a wide diversity of people (and by 'diversity' I mean diversity of viewpoint) are going to be included, rather than excluded, in the overall effort of improving Wikipedia, there's going to have to be a concomitant latitude extended, not a mechanisitic adherence to what one individual thinks the rule means. In this instance, if one abides by the standard of the quality of another opinion forwarded, the edit was an improvement, and not because I think it was.
