There are no conflicts between the two statements you quoted. The clause "without taking up additional space" is merely describing FlipText as being able to add alternate information to existing information without taking up more space, which is a fact, not an opinion.

Yes, if an ability were to change from non-derivative to derivative, it would be non-essential. Essential is just a synonym I'm using for non-derivative to make talking about it easier.

I edited the template documentation at the same time as I edited Warwick's page since I saw enough support to update the standard for that specific case. At the same time, I made note of both edits in this thread. Please do not (perniciously?) suggest that I tried to create a "free pass" since I have only referenced the other guidelines in my arguments.

I continue to reference the documentation because it is the only written standard which seems to exist governing the usage of FlipText on this wiki. If I've missed something here, I'm quite sorry, but if that were the case you should've linked to the real standards much earlier. But my understanding is that the documentation is the only official standard we have, and it is your solo edits that are based on a different standard that only you are privy to.
