RFV discussion: March–April 2016[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.


None of the citations is durably archived. The first two are mention-y, and arguably mentioning the Czech word rather than an English word. - -sche (discuss) 19:34, 22 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed: "Burčák is a name" and "known as burčák" are both mentions rather than uses and thus do not meet WT:ATTEST. On a less conclusive note, the authors of the first two quotations are Pavel Kopřiva and Daniela Lazarová, obviously two native Czech speakers, and the publication venues are "Státní zemědělská a potravinářská inspekce" and "Český rozhlas" ("Czech radio"), Czech-titled venues; all of that casts doubt on whether these quotations should be accepted as English. --Dan Polansky (talk) 10:03, 27 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
