What is the staff opinion of the definition for automatic farms?

I've been writing rules and I've made my own definition but I dont know if people and especially the staff agree with the definition and the rule.

The creation and use of a automatic farm* is NOT allowed. Any automatic farms that are found will be forcefully destroyed, creator and users balance reset and other possible punishments. These farms are not allowed to keep the economy of the server stable and fair for all players. *(Automatic farms are farms that do not require any manual input for the creation of a product, For example the well known cactus farm that automatically drops cactus is not allowed.)
Automatic - having the capability of starting, operating, moving, etc.,independently:

I know example's and I could name them for hours. But a definition would be helpful, For example would a 'automatic' tree farm where you need to place the sapling be automatic? What about a farm that needs constant refilling?
And by automatic stone what do you mean? Are andriods not allowed to mine stone for a cobble stone generator?

Something that you can afk and will continually generate you something that you can use for income without needing to break the item or kill it and only need to take items out of the chest.

So I can't build that huge tree farm that TangoTek made?
The one with minecarts and iron bars that uses your off hand? Yea thats not automatic unless you afk. If you start afking while you do it using macros thats not allowed.

No putting bonemeal in a dispenser. The bonemean runs out making it by definition not automatic. But im wondering if thats still considered automatic by the staff.

A tree farm that is automatic but will need constant bonemeal to power it. Thats automatic as such but it is only automatic as long as it has alot of bone meal available to it.
just hook it up to a skelly grinder.

Just to make things clear:

The admins mean that if the farm can run forever WITHOUT PLAYER INTERACTION then it isn't allowed. Being able to hit a button and it harvests it for you doesn't make it against the rules.
