wreckingis when a person takes the remains of already wrecked ships. The sinking of the ship was not done by them.

   Dear IP colleague, I'll see that that claim finds a home on the talk page where the Dab'n of that gerund will be moved to. The explication of that word (including its actually ambiguous other usages) should not have been misplaced onto this Dab page, even if other senses of that spelling are unacceptable to those associated with the innocent profession, pending a protective association representing it having succeeded in (if I may be so bold) steering, as they say, all other usages onto the shoals of disuse use and the rocks of extinction. Bang! Zoom! Straight to the Moon!.

Sorry, that was supposed to be the summary, not another comment; a decade and a half editing on real computers is poor prep'n for editing on an iPad 2! The Latin is a frequently applicable legal maxim, literally "[The/that] thing itself speaks", in effect "It speaks for itself, and nothing more needs to be said."
