Legal topics?

When I first read this;

WikiAlpha has no notability requirements, and accepts articles on all legal topics including news...

I initially thought it meant "legal topics" (i.e., court cases, lawyer briefs, supreme court decisions) as opposed to "topics that are legal". Maybe it would be helpful to rewrite that section to clarify it. Web (talk) 09:45, 26 July 2011 (MSD)

Good idea :) Govind (talk) 15:26, 26 July 2011 (MSD)
I take in "legal" means nothing stolen can be placed on Wikipedia, like stolen copywritten source code, government secret documents, emails hacked from private individuals, etc? Mathewignash (talk) 17:30, 26 July 2011 (MSD)

Encyclopedia or dictionary?

Onviously jokers will try to push the limits of non-notability, for instance 2048 (number). I'm not sure if or how that article should be addressed, you could just leave it be. Another ideas is it delete it because it's not really encyclopedic, it's more of a dictionary definition. Wikialpha is an Encyclopedia, not a dictionary. Mathewignash (talk) 17:33, 26 July 2011 (MSD)
