Basically, when [[WP:EDIANS]] [[WP:CITE]] pages in the [[WP:PRJ]] [[WP:NS]], they often refer to them using [[WP:CUTS]] like "[[WP:BEANS]]", "[[WP:BALLS]]", and "[[WP:FU]]". While these [[WP:ABB]] are great for [[WP:RDR]] to [[WP:A]] particular page you [[WP:USE]] often, it's probably a [[WP:BAD]] idea to make a [[WP:POINT]] of using these [[WP:TLA]]s in daily [[WP:TALK]], lest your discussion ends [[WP:UP]] as [[WP:NONSENSE]] like the [[WP:TITLE]] of this page. |

Basically, when Wikipedians refer to pages in the Wikipedia namespace, people often refer to them using shortcuts like "[[WP:BEANS]]", "[[WP:BALLS]]", and "[[WP:FU]]". While these abbreviations are great for quickly getting to a particular page you use often, it's probably a bad idea to make a point of using the three letter acronyms in daily conversation, lest your discussion ends up as nonsense like the title of this page. |

==Moral of the story== |

Always use a proper name for a Wikipedia namespace page when discussing it. If you find you are getting sore wrists and fingers from all the typing, try to simplify or summarise the pages you are referring to, so that in future you only need to refer to a single link. ;-) |
