Talk:Αρίκα

RFV discussion: June–August 2015

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.

@Saltmarsh: This is RFV, not RFC (although I do appreciate the cleanup). —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 20:59, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

yes - it's an entry in Βικιπαίδεια, isn't this sufficient?   — Saltmarsh^{συζήτηση-talk} 04:44, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

@Saltmarsh: I'm afraid not; please see WT:ATTEST. —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 06:13, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

el:Google has over 2.5k instances of Αρίκα with Χιλή   — Saltmarsh^{συζήτηση-talk} 06:24, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

OK, but that doesn't count for attestation. If we try your search as google books:"Αρίκα" "Χιλή" there are zero good hits, which suggests that the term cannot actually be cited. —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 07:30, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

This string gets a couple of Scholar hits, but they seem to be using it as a personal/family name:

• 2004, Kassoli–Fournaraki, in the Bulletin of the Geological Society of Greece

Searching for "Αρίκα" "Χιλή" on Issuu shows that "Αρίκα" has been used in two editions of Manessis Travel guides (which are not independent of each other, IMO), viz. the 2013 and the ΕΚΔΡΟΜΕΣ & ΤΑΞΙΔΙΑ ΧΡΙΣΤΟΥΓΕΝΝΑ / ΠΡΩΤΟΧΡΟΝΙΑ / ΦΩΤΑ : 2014 guides (the latter has "Αρίκα, Χιλή"). We just need two more citations. - -sche (discuss) 20:33, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

el.WP notes that this name is also used in the Νέα Γεωγραφική Εγκυκλοπαίδεια: Νότια Αμερική (New Geographical Encyclopedia: South America), volume (τόμος) 4 (Σκάι βιβλίο; →ISBN. That means we have two citations. - -sche (discuss) 20:39, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

RFV-failed for now. Hopefully a third citation will become available in a year or two. - -sche (discuss) 05:06, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

This is also in Enkyklopaideia Domē enchrōmē: holes hoi gnōseis gia holous: [...] ύπερ-ανδικές σιδηροδρομικές γραμμές πού έχουν αφετηρία στην 'Αρίκα, στην Άντοφαγκάστα καΐ στό Βαλπαραΐσο. It is apparently also in Αμερικανικές Χώρες and possibly a number of King Bet magazine editions. - -sche (discuss) 10:09, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
