History. Community. Cultural background.
I understand, that new users might not know such terms. But we shouldn't
give them up just because of this. We must explain somewhere, at least
with a reference to the hacker's dictionary or emacswiki or whatever.
If something is not explained in Wikipedia, it cannot be regarded as non
existing. It would be a poor world then.
