  • What is Wikipedia smoking?

  • Did you mean arm machine?

  • BTW I hate this new interface. I feel like I've ended up in a remote corner of Wordpress reserved for spectacularly irregular blogs about pesto recipes and navel fluff.

  • Wiktionary is a free-to-edit website, so that was probably the work of an internet miscreant.

  • No, it's correct on Wiktionary. It's just been pulled into our database incorrectly. As you can see, it's a very correct definition: refusing to define ATM machine, they only make a reference to pleonasm.

  • Apparently the designers of the new interface think I enjoy reading illiterate, obscene, xenophobic tweets about as much as I enjoy reading comments from other Wordnik users. This is not the case.

    Please do not put user comments and tweets on the same page. It is not an improvement. Perhaps the thought might have crossed your minds that some of us log into Wordnik as a way of getting away from the drivel that permeates the rest of the web. Now you're forcing us to look at the drivel anyway.

  • 'Define' is faintly absurd anyway because no user action is possible; I would not equate 'read definition pulled from database' with 'define'.

  • In the syntax of 'please define this for me' rather than 'I would like to define this' it makes sense.
