 Dictionary definitions aren't OR 

Chris Parham has taken to deleting the dictionary definitions of the words ""shock"" and ""awe"" as ""OR"".  On what grounds, actually mentioned in WP:OR are these being objected to?  The fact is that when you are discussing the semantic equivalence of different terms, the dictionary is about the most reliable of all reference sources.  It's not ""original,"" and it is as reliable as sources can get.  "
