Wolfkeeper deletes the WP:NOTDIC section of WP:NOT, which asserts that WP is not a dictionary. Says that since WP has articles on single words, including meanings and etymologies, obviously WP:NOTDIC is inoperative.

SarekofVulcan, sometimes a prime WP:DIC if you need a DEF for one, disagrees. Wolfkeeper persists with the logical course of removing a part of WP:NOT which is obviously untrue. Sarek blocks him for 3 hours for POINT-y edit warring and being too logical for WP.



Too much stress again, Sarek.

Ah yes. Homo Adminicus (Banhammeranimus Ornericus).

I like where Wolfkeeper (T-C-L-K-R-D) reasons with SarekOfVulcan

Would that be an accurate enough a summary?

Who is SarekOfVulcan and what are his social / mental / employment problems that he needs to indulge himself on the Wikipedia? His page says "Brown University" and so he has to have half a brain.

Oh, I see he is a member here and so perhaps he can fill us in himself.

Hmm... He didn't delete the entire section, he just changed the wording to "reflect the consensus" from here, a talk page on which he argued this past June that allowing "articles about terms" (i.e., dictionary entries) is "probably the most self defeating and negative suggestion in the entire history of the wikipedia."

In other words, I suspect he's just being sarcastic and trying to force the issue, which of course is a violation of WP:POINT, so they blocked him. Heaven forbid someone might actually want to make a point on Wikipedia, particularly one that might draw people's attention to an obvious inconsistency in the rules - what, an inconsistency? Pshaw, we say!

Bingley bingley beep!

Well, you can say, "Pshaw," if you like, but I prefer, "Harrumph."

Wolfkeeper is more eloquent.

Wolfkeeper even spells "consensus" correctly (and as such, should win by default).

Either that or he works for UPS.

Eh, considered it from time to time, but they were never hiring at the same time I was looking.

I think I explained it in enough detail on-wiki, but it sums up as: "if everyone who opines tells you that's not what the RFC said, and you edit war on policy pages anyway, you get blocked."
