Q1: Why did you remove the mnemonic that I came up with?
A1: Like all other content on Wikipedia, mnemonics on this page should be supported by reliable sources. There are as many potential acrostics for trigonometric identities as there are combinations of words starting with the right letters, but the vast majority of those are not useful as a mnemonic. Mnemonics published in reliable sources such as mathematical textbooks are more likely to be effective, at least for a certain group. Note that Wikipedia is not censored, so if you can find a reliable source for a spicy mnemonic, go ahead and add it. Compare, for example, List of electronic color code mnemonics § Offensive/outdated.
