You seem to be writing a bit of an encyclopaedia article over there. Have you considered editing the corresponding article at Wikipedia instead? We just want to define the word, not detail its entire history. Equinox ◑ 22:54, 7 March 2010 (UTC) The definition varies based on who is speaking it. The greek roots chosen by the coiner say nothing about what he intended the definition of the word. The word history (though it appears encyclopedic) seems important to     understand the definition of the word as it may be used by some authors. User:bloodleech Please note that this is not Wikipedia. You are currently on Wiktionary, a dictionary web site. If you would like to add a word and its definition, then you are welcome to do so. Encyclopedic articles, such as the one you entered, belong on an encyclopedia web site, such as Wikipedia. Thanks.Mglovesfun (talk) 23:22, 7 March 2010 (UTC) I'm working on my response to the above. I am new, but really the content I have listed is not encyclopedic but rather pertains to word usage and history. Maybe I should just put the 5 conditions the original word inventory used and include that in another definition. Instead for now I've put them in usage notes. I'm also trying to figure out how to include a     reference (In this case the original paper that originally coined the word NOOTROPIC) with correct syntax. User:bloodleech

OK, I deleted all the word history/usage from nootropic (people seemed to think it was encyclopedic) and wrote a condensed definition that explains how the word is used in pharmacology. bloodleech
