Adjective defined as noun, so essentially no definition. Another transwiki not cleaned up before being moved into the main namespace. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:04, 2 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

I spent some time on it, but it's still not perfect. If you look at autotelism (which has lesser problems of its own), it seems that the adjective was copied whole from the noun, with only a very rudimentary attempt at adapting the definitions. Chuck Entz (talk) 01:46, 25 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
After looking at the edit history, and the first WT edit, it seems I wasn't as wrong as I thought I was at first: the headword was originally autotelism, but it seems to have been moved to Autotelic, then autotelic, with an autotelism entry created and populated from the original entry, then the original entry was jury-rigged into the current autotelic article. The result was almost as bad as the process. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:09, 25 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
