Talk:Eschew

This page is necessary as a basic word page from which a link to the wiktionary page can be found (without having to add them to each page with the word "eschew" on it, for example). ∞Σɛ_Þ² ^(τ|c) 13:07, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why would a Wiktionary link be necessary? Wiktionary boxes are very useful to add to existing disambiguation pages, but we don't need to create new ones solely to contain them. --Piet Delport 14:36, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Again, the link is necessary to explain a not very common word... ∞Σɛ_Þ² ^(τ|c) 03:46, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a dictionary. How many times do we have to tell you this? --Piet Delport 05:47, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As many times as it takes for you to realize Wikipedia is a dictionary. Otherwise, remove all dictionary definitions--NO MATTER HOW VAGUE. But, be warned, most of the articles will be deleted in this course of action. Hypocracy abounds! ∞Σɛ_Þ² ^(τ|c) 06:13, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I admit I didn't know what "eschew" means (and I already forgot its meaning again), but I see two viable solutions that don't get in conflict with Wikipedia is not a dictionary (which I support):

1. Eschew seems to be a small town in South Africa, as claimed in the article Margaret Wild. maps.google.com couldn't find it though, but if it really exists, a stub for Eschew, South Africa may be created, linked to from a dab page, which may also link to Eschew obfuscation.

2. See Juxtaposition, which had the exact same problem. – sgeureka ^t•c 13:06, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, thanks. {{Wi}} seems more appropriate than the current redirect, yes. --Piet Delport 14:05, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
