Ah, the example pedantic, it seems like a reversion to Elizabethan grammatical conventions, in which noun and adjective would sometimes reverse the order in which we normally find them in conventional 21st century usage, but no, you were not doing anything so subtle, you were just being sloppy, and failed to compose a complete sentence, which would have been: "what is an example of a pedantic statement" which could also have been said a bit more succinctly in the form, "give an example of pedantry" (note that the previous version was composed in 8 words, and the revised version requires only 5 words). But who on this site really cares about the finer nuances of English composition, I ask you.
