Added the actual wording of the definition from Oxford Dictionaries, with a link to the relevant page.

| Sep 2, 2016 at 0:35 | comment | added | Sven Yargs | I recommend that you provide a link to the definition you used in your answer, or quote it verbatim and identify the source by exact title. The definitions given at Merriam-Webster Online are as follows: "Simple Definition of autocrat : a person who rules with total power[.] Full Definition of autocrat 1 : a person (as a monarch) ruling with unlimited authority 2 : one who has undisputed influence or power[.]" None of those definitions seems more than tangentially related to the definition you give. | |
