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.


I'm actually not sure how we would expect to attest the meaning of an emoticon, but the second sense here, added, by an anon, seems off to me. Dmcdevit·t 23:56, 31 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

The "parsing" of the symbols is different in this case: for the cheering smiley, we are supposed to see two raised arms either side of a head, but for lol we are supposed to see the slashes as tilted lower-case letters, l+o+l. I think I might have seen this, but can't imagine being able to cite it. Equinox 23:16, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
