==Genuine question regarding this wiki : Should these terms be defined by their own pages or should we link to the wikipedia definition ?== This wiki is about Consumer rights protection. In the case of Digital Consumer rights protection, there is often the need for the usage of specific terms like LAN and others, therefore the need for their definition. Should their definition be made by pages on this wiki, like this page, or should we instead link to wikipedia ? Im asking because by itself, a LAN is not problematic, thus i dont see the point of the existance of this page. We dont want to become a general wiki ; wikiepdia already exists. the CRW has its own purpose and i dont think pages like LAN should exist... please reply with your own perspective if you disagree with me. [[User:Plankton|Plankton]] ([[User talk:Plankton|talk]]) 20:30, 20 August 2025 (UTC) :I personally don't find it needed. Generally these types of articles should only exist if there is a specific definition needed for the consumer rights context. I'll leave it open to other opinions, if anyone else has an argument to why it should exist, maybe written differently.
