The Wikipedia page seems to be generally correct. It’s a pretty broad political spectrum though with a reasonably long history. Some anarchists disagree with each other (as people in any group do) so there isn’t a perfect definition. The synopsis of the wiki is probably as good as you’ll get without reading the literature. Proudhon is probably the most famous anarchist, if you want to read up on his works.
anarchism
1: a political theory holding all forms of governmental authority to be unnecessary and undesirable and advocating a society based on voluntary cooperation and free association of individuals and groups
2: the advocacy or practice of anarchistic principles
Arguing based on dictionary definitions is like, a meme. It’s like those facebook memes with the horribly written maths problems. The dictionary definition of a word will never capture the full nuanced meaning of the term. Arguing about it is pure pedantry.

Not sure why you’re so obsessed with the dictionary. Is it some kind of kink or something? x
