French for “[[fat bike]] rider”. — Ungoliant (falai) 12:58, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Ungoliant MMDCCLXIV: diff. It could theoretically exist (/ve.pe.ɛ.sœʁ/), but I doubt very much it's attestable. --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 22:07, 19 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I’ll let you in on an unwritten secret: half of all words and senses that get RFVed are real words that are really used, usually by a group so select, or so unwilling to put it into serious writing, that it ends up not meeting our criteria. But maybe someone can find cites for vpseur in French biking magazines. — Ungoliant (falai) 11:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have another unwritten secret, that may shatter the lexicography world. Half of all words and senses that get RFVed are not real words. This one is a prime example of something I just made up. Also, maybe it's fat bike rider? --Gente como tú (talk) 11:40, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Let this serve as a warning to anyone who thinks it’s OK to whitelist WF. — Ungoliant (falai) 12:48, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well said, UM! --Gente como tú (talk) 15:09, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
