Wikipedia:WTF? OMG! TMD TLA. ARG!
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Basically, when WP:EDIANS CITE pages in the PRJ NS, they often refer to them using CUTS like "BEANS", "BALLS", and "FUC". While these ABB are GREAT for RDRing to a particular page you USE often, it's probably a BAD idea to make a POINT of using these TLAs in daily TALK, lest your discussion end UP as NONSENSE like the TITLE of this page.
[edit] Translation
- What The Fuck? Oh My God! Too Many Damn Three Letter Acronyms. ARRRGGGHHH!!!!~!@!~1`2
Basically, when Wikipedians refer to pages in the Wikipedia namespace, people often refer to them using shortcuts like "WP:BEANS", "WP:BALLS", and "WP:FUC". While these abbreviations are great for quickly getting to a particular page you use often, it's probably a bad idea to make a point of using these three letter acronyms in daily conversation, lest your discussion end up as nonsense like the title of this page.
[edit] Moral of the story
Always use a proper name for a Wikipedia namespace page when discussing it. If you find you are getting sore wrists and fingers from all the typing, try to simplify or summarise the pages you are referring to, so that in future you only need to refer to a single link. ;-)
