Difference (from prior major revision) (author diff)

Changed: 3c3
: Well, if something is actually a piece of jargon, which is important to understanding some phenomenon about which we definitely want have encyclopedia articles (hacker culture, for example), I can see that. I doubt the word "woot" is a piece of jargon that is important to understanding hacker culture, though. Or, if you think it is, then, to be consistent, you should say that all expressions should be included in the encyclopedia, since they are certainly important to understanding some culture (language is an essential part of culture). Please, anyway, don't be afraid of making mistakes. They don't matter, because they can be easily fixed. --LMS
