None of those three descriptions seems helpful here.

The point of -pedantic is to give a diagnostic whenever the standard 
requires one (and possibly in some other cases).  The point of 
-Werror=pedantic is to give an error for diagnostics enabled by -pedantic 
(whether or not the standard requires a diagnostic in those cases, and 
whether or not the standard requires successful translation in those 
cases).  The point of -pedantic-errors is to give an error whenever the 
standard requires a diagnostic (and possibly in some other cases, but not 
cases where the standard requires successful translation).
