This interwiki was apparently the only entry for this user (here or on Wikipedia). A cursory look through Google books turns up nothing but representation of sounds and scannos for queer or queen. Chuck Entz (talk) 17:54, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Attestations found and added, 1 from Google books, two from Usenet. I also found two definite non-scannos for queep="queer person" (in the gay sense), but I have to get back to real life. Choor monster (talk) 19:43, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Looks cited. I can't see an RFV tag on the entry to remove. Equinox ◑ 20:23, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

That was me: I added the cites and removed the tag. Now I've added the strike out. Choor monster (talk) 12:54, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

Please read the procedure for closing an rfv at the top of the page. Chuck Entz (talk) 13:18, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

OK, fixed here and there, and a 4th cite added. Sorry about that. Choor monster (talk) 13:38, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

I added some senses. Most interestingly, there's a sense used in w:Rowing (sport)#Equipment. I found no proper CFI sources on-line, however, the nature of the sources I found makes it seem certain there's an official definition that is being quoted. Choor monster (talk) 18:14, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

There's an invite for an RFV if ever I've seen one. Mglovesfun (talk) 22:48, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

That sounds about right. Some other rowing terms need verification, like (deprecated template usage) sweep (two-hands per oar). Also, as implied above, a duo "Bitch and Animal" has introduced "queep=queer people", [1] and [2]. I presume these are not really independent. Choor monster (talk) 14:28, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
