It is better to leave open those pages with obvious meanings, so that we can find a way to figure out what they mean in context from their references later. It is also fine to leave [[Proper Name]]s or companies and people open so that they can eventually be directed to acceptable commentary about them. A few theory terms like [[respect for diversity]] and [[wiki mission]] are so wide open they should be defined more by osmosis, and we should wait as long as we can to do so - preferably using examples from elsewhere. | It is better to leave open those pages with obvious meanings, so that we can find a way to figure out what they mean in context from their references later.
