French etymology[edit]
I don't understand that a 17th century borrowing from Low German would be "historically implausible". In 1672, France and a.o. Münster (a Low German state) supported a Low German insurrection during the "w:Rampjaar". In the end, it brought France gains in the Spanish Netherlands and no independence for Gelre, but Low German ships would have joined France by that time. --80.114.178.7 01:14, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Rfv-sense "(fandom slang) A fan of the Australian singer-songwriter Sia Furler.". A couple of first-party tweets documenting an apparent attempt to coin the term aren't really convincing sources to prove that the term is actually used. SURJECTION ·talk·contr·log· 11:04, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
- Sia talks about lovers all the time, and fans themselves call them lovers all the time. There are Instagram profiles named sia.lovers etc. -Visual917

- It's conceivable that this could be attested distinctly ("when it comes to music, she's a Deadhead, not a lover"). Not likely, but conceivable. We might also want to RFV maggot "a fan of the American metal band Slipknot". - -sche (discuss) 05:46, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
