I'm doing academic work involving meta- and para-, and in looking for Wiki's definitions, find that the Para (capitalized or not, hyphenated or not - all lead to the one page) page lacks any reference to the Greek word and its several meanings! Entertainment and Chemistry yes, plain old term meaning, nyet -- is this typical? WOuld someone feel like adding this category of disambiguation in, preferably at or pretty close to the top of the list due to its generality? Thanks for any authoritative contribution!
