From 1811 Vulgar Tongue. --Celui qui crée ébauches de football anglais (talk) 17:52, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It is certainly used for this meaning in the novels of Shana Galen, but other uses I find are less specific, and seem more generic, referring only to a particularly egregious miscreant. I found a few quotes that might support the definition, but I suspect not. Anyway, I stuck a bunch of quotes on the citations page. Kiwima (talk) 20:10, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I resolved this by making it an alternative form of archrogue where both senses are more easily cited. Kiwima (talk) 21:57, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
