RFV discussion: July–September 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.

Rfv-sense: a car, an automobile. Added with the edit summary "Added new meaning that is used in the LivingLatin movement, supported by the Romance language's definition of their respected evolved term of carrus". DTLHS (talk) 23:56, 9 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Other contributions seem to be to pronunciation sections. Renard Migrant (talk) 10:41, 13 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There were four kinds of edits:
  • Editings of pronunciations.
  • Adding of Reconstruction:Latin/impositum and mentioning it in etymology sections – I can't judge that.
  • Adding of the meaning always into saepe – As far as I can tell that's not correct. Lewis & Short give the meaning as "Often, oft, oftentimes, many times, frequently", so it's different. This edit already got reverted.
  • Editing of carrus.
Latin Wikipedia has "Autocinetum (-i, n.), autoraeda (-ae, f.), autocurrus (-us, m.), vel currus automobilis" (with references). I guess people could use "currus automobilis" and then drop one part, but that would at best lead to currus and not to carrus. Finish Nuntii Latini has "autocīnētum" (2015, 2016), "autoraeda" (2014), "autocarrus" (for English "lorry"). -Ikiaika (talk) 07:04, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
