Rfv-sense: Satan. tagged but not listed by AugPi. The sense "Satan" has been present in every revision of this entry. Mglovesfun (talk) 23:28, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Probably needs to be cited outside of idioms like "[x] mag Joost weten". (Much like "jiffy" needed to be cited outside of "in a jiffy" in order to deserve its own entry.) - -sche (discuss) 23:55, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
There are plenty of sources that mention the use, but it's somewhat archaic and not commonly known anymore, so it would probably be in older texts, 19th century or before maybe. —CodeCat 00:06, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I'll assume you're correct and strike this as kept. I added a context tag. - -sche (discuss) 19:20, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
