[edit] Nice
While I rather like this page, isn't it a bit ironic that it's basically stating "pages should be simple" in a convoluted way? :) Radiant_>|< 10:10, August 16, 2005 (UTC)
- No. It's stating that the best explanation of a thing is the thing itself. That may lead to simpler pages, but perhaps not, if demonstration is added to analysis. This merely argues for preference to be given the demonstration. — Xiong熊talk* 16:35, 2005 August 17 (UTC)
[edit] Essay?
Isn't slapping on a link to a non-existent category just a convoluted way of being snippy? — Xiong熊talk* 16:35, 2005 August 17 (UTC)
- That old comment needs the edit history: ,
- it was only a missing s in Category:Essays. -- Omniplex 20:21, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ummm...
What exactly is the point of this 'Grapefruit' entry?
[edit] Being lazy?
I would care for a propper Wikipedia article on this fruit.

[edit] Good concept, but flawed.
This is a good concept, but it doesn't actually give many guidelines on how to implement it. What, for example, am I meant to put in the article for Pornography? Should I simply offer the reader some? While demonstration is very useful, this article makes it sound like it is the only possibility. Suggest changes, perhaps? Daniel (☎) 20:33, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
- Pornography and some other topics like spam are often "defined" by I know it when I see it, but obviously that's not always the best approach for an encyclopedia. WP:HORSE is apparently a counter-example (but I'm not sure). -- Omniplex 20:16, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
–If you want to try and talk about pornography try and talk about points of view.
