What does "split and tips discarded" in a chicken wing recipe mean?

For example: http://www.franksredhot.com/recipe/rds/franks/?id=9556 Like explain the simplest way possible as if it was someone who has never made wings before.

1. It means to tear the pointy tips off and throw them away. No one eats the hard points of the wing.
2. cut tips of wings off and discard, cut the piece left in half to make a drumette and a small wingette!
3. A chicken wing has 3 joints split the 2 largest joints apart and throw away the smallest tip joint.
