- I saw your comment here and I do not think that definitions are important within a team, except in the context of a given theory. The important is that, in a given context, say a given theory, people in the team understand each others. This may require that we give examples to explain how we interpret some terms, but beyond that definitions are not important in team communication. Proper buzz words are important for the public image of Wikipedia and I feel that was your point. This is a separate problem. I do not mind that people discuss the best buzz words to use, but that is another step, which can be managed separately. For the communication among us, we do not need to worry about the buzz words aspect. Though, I can say that I do not feel that "neutral point of view", "not takings sides", etc. are bad expressions for the public image. Dominic Mayers (talk) 00:34, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
