Talk:hold ransom
Latest comment: 4 years ago by PUC
@PUC: I can confirm this is common in the US, but the title seems wrong to me; it should be hold someone ransom. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 16:46, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Lambiam: Hadn't you come up with a proposal to treat cases like this? PUC – 15:34, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, see Wiktionary:Beer parlour/2019/August#I wouldn't mind a little something. I first postponed putting this up for a vote because of other recently created votes and then I saw a technical problem that meant I could not simply put the proposal up “as is”. At some point I thought I had a solution but right then there were again already several other new votes so I put it off again, and then kind of forgot about it. Now I have forgotten what the problem was, so perhaps I should just put it up for a vote as is. --Lambiam 16:38, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
