2 valid cites - the only two that appear on googlebooks. Uno mas? — [Ric Laurent] — 02:48, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
- Added one. Usenet FTW. Ungoliant MMDCCLXIV 03:22, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
- Removed one that was a mention rather than a use. google groups:niggerfaggot has 41 hits, some of which are not independent. --Dan Polansky 15:52, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
- Shouldn't be remove, often used in quotes to deflect guilt (or receive pressure/complaints) not to avoid use.Lucifer 16:23, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
- He didn't remove it because it was in quotes. I'm afraid Wiktionary:ATTEST#Conveying meaning does exclude it. Ungoliant MMDCCLXIV 16:33, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Was it invented by the Derrick Comedy group?[edit]
The "spelling bee" episode/video is from August 2006, and from "google trends", there's where it originates/spikes right and it declines considerably afterwards.
- They weren't the first to invent it. On the citations page, you will see that we have records of its usage on Usenet going back to 2000 at least, six years before that video. But the trend may well be due to Derrick Comedy popularizing it briefly. ~ Röbin Liönheart (talk) 21:05, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
Voat.co connection[edit]
I can personally confirm that Voat.co is in fact "a thing," and that this term does have an association with it. In fact, I have yet to see this word used in any major form outside of Voat, so it seems odd to refuse to acknowledge the connection here. --ArchmageMordenkainen (talk) 16:34, 5 June 2018 (UTC)
This page should be deleted[edit]
The only "references" to this non-word come from racist Usenet posts from nearly two decades ago. It's clearly not a real word, but a compound of two offensive words that has no substantive meaning. Leaving this page up only serves to propagate and legitimize these hateful sources. — This unsigned comment was added by Verygoodsoftwarenotvirus (talk • contribs) at 18:12, 23 November 2021.
- @Verygoodsoftwarenotvirus: There are citations with ISBNs on the citations page. --Fytcha (talk) 17:20, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
