RFV discussion: April–July 2023[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

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.


Obsolete nonce term Wonderfool April 2023 (talk) 08:19, 24 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Certainly found: [1] [2] [3] (I assume none of these are Carlyle). @Wonderfool April 2023 did you actually check any of these? This, that and the other (talk) 11:16, 24 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Lol, no, I didn't check this one. I checked plenty of others, though. Wonderfool April 2023 (talk) 18:43, 24 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
the first and third one are viewable in full here on archive.org [4] [5] – both are from Stanley T. Williams. the second one is Carlyle again. 蒼鳥 fawk. tell me if i did anything wrong. 19:03, 4 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
@This, that and the other, Fawknerfawk Links are not cites, this will fail unless it is actually cited (quotes are added to the citations namespace or the entry itself). - TheDaveRoss 14:12, 26 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
No rush, I'll get around to it some day (or anyone else is welcome to step in). Although it appears we may only have the work of two authors, not the three required by CFI... This, that and the other (talk) 00:37, 27 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
This'll indeed be a fail unless we find one more citation from another author. I was pointing out that the quotes from the links were not CFI-sufficient, and didn't bother to cite. 蒼鳥 fawk. tell me if i did anything wrong. 13:40, 27 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
RFV-failed. I tried hard to look for cites (which weren't just capitalised and meaning "Japanese") beyond the two authors mentioned above, Carlyle and Williams—one in a reference history that looked promising turned out to be Williams too, and another journal article was also him—but it really does just seem to be them. The definition of the term seems dubious too; it was used as a term of abuse which the gloss doesn't reflect. I think a citations page and {{no entry}} is the best way forward for this one. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 12:31, 24 July 2023 (UTC)Reply


@Kiwima: The citations you've added are all from ST Williams, as discussed above (including the Hispania article). —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 08:25, 5 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Now properly attributed at Citations:japannish. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 08:31, 5 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
