From your own definition by your own source (UCSB National Science Foundation):
"If we define "wet" as a sensation that we get when a liquid comes in contact with us, then yes, water is wet to us.

"If we define "wet" as "made of liquid or moisture", then water is definitely wet because it is made of liquid, and in this sense, all liquids are wet because they are all made of liquids. I think that this is a case of a word being useful in appropriate contexts." ー UCSB

"Water is wet." : consisting of, containing, covered with, or soaked with liquid (such as water) ー
