[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.


As above, BGC doesn't seem to have any English results for this word. — SURJECTION / T / C / L / 12:44, 21 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Looks like a recent coinage(?); uses on twitter are mistrum (that is to say, the uses of the gender-neutral title "Mistrum" are "scant", if I may use an unrelated Middle English homograph) and only go back to August. (It's also a Latin word we're missing, and according to a raw Google search possibly a surname.) - -sche (discuss) 19:04, 21 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
Unsurprisingly (given its recentness and rarity) the only hits I see on Usenet are unrelated non-English, and several misspellings of Mustrum Ridcully like this. - -sche (discuss) 01:00, 10 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Surjection: I deleted the entry because it already failed a RfV. J3133 (talk) 21:14, 7 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
No wonder it sounded familiar... — SURJECTION / T / C / L / 04:11, 8 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
I can't find it in any magazines or newspapers at Issuu (even student art mags / papers), nor news articles online (even in publications like Them), or books. There are some users of it, e.g. Mistrum Nix, Mistrum Masher, Mistrum Genderplasma, Mistrum Emma, but I don't get the sense that it's common, so at least for my part I wouldn't start a "should this be allowed based on these online examples?" discussion at this time. (An entry we probably could/should readd from online sources now is strap...) - -sche (discuss) 02:36, 9 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
