 == Was the RFC Recommendations Ignored? ""Vapor"" is WRONG == 

 There was a lengthy RFC on this and yet someone has altered the text once again to the incorrect claim that these devices disperse a vapor. The correct term is aerosol which I had thought was the winning commentary on the last RFC go-around. 

 Someone with a dog in the race continues to want to use the technically and scientifically incorrect term, almost certainly because he or she is vested in the industry which sells or markets these devices. 

 Remember, Wikipedia is supposed to be encyclopedic and the proper utilization of terms is important (or not) to various degrees. If you don't know (or don't care) what a vapor is as opposed to an aerosol, you should be asking other editors before you alter words, or you should comply with the findings of the RFCs which editors open, discuss, and assume to have been resolved. 

 This seemingly-endless alteration cycle is not important in the context of the extant article since it's likely anyone doing research understands the difference, yet anyone who reads the article and is not an editor is going to note the fact that the term being applied  vapor  is wrong. That looks bad for Wikipedia which the editors insisting on making the mistake should consider stop doing.   "
