How can I remove the "wish.app" from my computer?

WISH.APP Found in About This Mac, under “Software/Applications”

/System/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.5/Resources/Wish.app

NOTICE FROM APPLE (?) WHEN TRYING TO PUT -wish.app- IN TRASH

“”Wish Shell.app” can’t be modified or deleted because it’s required by OS X

Upon searching on Google I found that "Wish.app" is nothing more than an advertisement web page and I would like to remove it from my files, however, per the quoted information above it can't be done. Is there an alternate way to dispose of it?

Thanks in advance for any help.

The Wish application is part of the System Tk/Tcl GUI framework implementation. It is not a web advertisement page at all. Do not remove it. In fact, do not remove anything that you did not install yourself, or you could be creating a doorstop.
