Phobia
Hi -- let me try to explain the problem with your edits. Wikipedia articles should be descriptive, not prescriptive. That is, they should give facts, not instructions. You are basically chastising people for using words incorrectly -- instead you should simply report neutrally what people do. For example, instead of saying that people misuse the word "phobia", you could say that they often use it in a way that does not match the meaning of the original Greek. Worded that way it would be factual and not judgmental. Is this making sense? Regards, Looie496 (talk) 14:19, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
