Eschew Obfuscation If you re interested in working on a proposed essay or something I d be happy to collaborate with you As for shepherding it I don t know much about it either but I m always keen to learn and despite what the rumour mill may have to say about me I m actually very adept with NOR and V these days I think it shows very clearly in my editing I have no idea where Sanchi gets the things he thinks I m saying from I m actually curious to know but I ll digress But I agree that the policy is problematically vague it s much more like Synthesis is supposed to be Wikipedia jargon than Synthesis is Wikipedia jargon Other words with special Wikipedia jargon properties like consensus are spelt out in detail It seems to me that the same should be done for synthesis And I ve little doubt that many others feel the same way I m sure we could find a few other editors interested in making things clearer
