Andrew, please, come on. I have not added any tags from you, hence I
cannot possibly have falsified any. The Suggested-by tags had been
there all the time. I also cannot see any evidence of "the series not
[having] been reviewed correctly". Please can you support your claims
by actual facts?

As to the series itself and its possible reverting (or fixing) - can
you please reply with technical comments on the problematic patch(es)
of the most recent version?

Henry - you may want to add this to your list of things to monitor.
The situation will need resolving one way or another, but obviously
we first need to determine the most suitable way.
