short-handed goal[edit]

SoP, we lack the sense at short-handed, but it's just (deprecated template usage) short-handed + (deprecated template usage) goal. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:56, 14 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Okay, I just added a {{context|team sports}} sense to short-handed. Does that make this term officially SoP? -- Ghost of WikiPedant 02:10, 15 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Delete this SOP. I'm not sure, incidentally, that those are distinct senses of short-handed, but whatever.​—msh210 (talk) 16:21, 15 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'd say they're different enough to merit two different entries. Short-handed while doing a project means not enough people involved, in ice hockey it means one or more player is in the penalty box. I wouldn't say four is 'not enough people involved' against five (or is it six and seven?). Mglovesfun (talk) 16:27, 15 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
