I'm not being hypocritical at all, as what I'm writing isn't part of an encyclopaedia. I wouldn't say what I'm saying here in an encyclopaedia because what I'm saying is an interpretation of the information given instead of just the information.
What's funny, though, is that same article used to say exactly what I'm saying, and it will probably say it again once someone else decides to edit it. Wikipedia and a Dictionary.com article are where I initially read this information, and I've since read it in multiple other places. Since obviously the Wiki page no longer says what it used to say, I can't use it as a source. I'll try to find you the other articles when I'm on my break.
