In OTB games, players are allowed to ask the tournament director questions regarding the rules, and may even stop the clocks to do so. Questions regarding the definition of insufficient material are among these (but the how with minimum material is not). Such questions do not violate the rule not to discuss a game in progress with other players or spectators.
Why, then, was Thread 69224 closed? I see nothing inappropriate there.
A single knight, two knights, or a single bishop each constitute insufficient material. A single rook, on the other hand, is sufficient.
