*We are called “Editors” (and not “writers” or “contributors”) for a reason. Part of our job is to EDIT articles. And editing includes making decisions on what material to include/exclude from an article. ''Writers'' almost always hate it when editors decide to exclude something they have written, but if they want their work published they have to adhere to what the editors demand (or take their work elsewhere).

:One other comment… ONUS was never intended to be a ''reason'' to REMOVE content. It is intended to be a ''requirement'' to RETURN content that has been removed for other reasons. Perhaps that could be made clearer. [[User:Blueboar|Blueboar]] ([[User talk:Blueboar|talk]]) 13:47, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
::Agreed. Revert Ninjas cannot use [[WP:ONUS]] as the sole justification for their reverts. But they can throw out subjective arguments (as already mentioned, [[WP:UNDUE]] or [[WP:TRIVIA]]) that are impossible to shoot down because they are subjective in nature, and then use [[WP:ONUS]] to get the upper hand in the content dispute.
