RFV discussion: May–July 2014[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process.

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


Esperanto for a group of archeopteryxes. —Mr. Granger (talkcontribs) 16:28, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Transparent compound, in as much need for an entry as "group of archeopteryxes" needs an entry in English. kwami (talk) 07:44, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
This is really not the correct forum for this issue; this is probably a better discussion for Wiktionary:Beer parlour. I will say this is one of the affixes that caught me out for irregularity; why homaro (humanity and not a flock of humans) and ŝafaro (a flock of sheep and not sheepdom)?--Prosfilaes (talk) 01:58, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Why isn't this the correct forum? User is questioning whether this meets our criteria for inclusion, specifically attestation. Sounds pretty correct to me. Renard Migrant (talk) 10:32, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I've done a quick search. I say quick, when there are no results for something it's very quick. Speedy as patent nonsense. Renard Migrant (talk) 10:34, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Kwami was questioning whether or not transparent compounds in Esperanto need entries; that's not a question for RFV. And I disagree in principle with deleting this; it is not patent nonsense, it's an entirely plausible Esperanto word, and we still accept cites from physical works, meaning that there's no way to prove that a word is currently uncitable for any but the most poorly attested languages.--Prosfilaes (talk) 11:03, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Failed. Transparent or not, it still needs to be in use. — Ungoliant (falai) 01:57, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
