RFV discussion: April–October 2022

[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.

Third cite is not durably archived? This, that and the other (talk) 23:39, 19 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
There's a use on Usenet, but it's in the middle of some kind of poetic word salad: [1]. Page 100 of this thesis uses the word, but with a different meaning. There are some uses on Twitter (not durably archived either), but not an impressive number. 98.170.164.88 01:25, 20 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
I was perhaps a bit too hasty to pass this, due to the third cite issue but the earliest Twitter use is from 2008 [2] and the earliest that clearly conveys meaning is the following from2009 [3]. Then there’s this early blog post from 2010 [4], the Guns and Roses cover band Guns and Hoses singing ‘Welcome to the vajungle’ and apparently selling ‘Vajungle pants’ according to Twitter, ‘Vajungle’ being the name of a play about sexual abuse (though I don’t know if hairy axe wounds feature), the comedian Ralphie May saying it in the YouTube video called ‘These are glorious times’ (over 3 million hits) and some uses on TikTok. Can’t see anything technically durably archived that conveys a clear meaning other than the two cites already found though, or even any GoogleImage hits for Vajungle memes. Probably slightly less worth of inclusion than Dorcassing or FaCIAbook which have already failed, for better or worse. Overlordnat1 (talk) 02:37, 20 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
Hmm. We have two book cites, and miscellaneous mediocre web cites. Meh. - -sche (discuss) 21:16, 11 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Failed, but very close to cited, I moved the cites to the citations page. My guess is that this is just an obvious pun/nonce which has been coined a number of times, and not a set term. - TheDaveRoss 12:30, 27 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
