wat

First issue: an IP removed the "(informal, Internet, text messaging) what" etymology 2. It should presumably be reinstated. (But only if there are citations, hence RFV.) Second issue: is "Wat" ever used to mean "Buddhist temple" (etymology 1) outside of placenames which are transliterated whole from other languages? - -sche (discuss) 03:32, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

On the second issue: lots of "wats" [1] Chuck Entz (talk) 03:43, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Fantastic, I'll modify our entry accordingly. Postscript: and DCD's beat me to adding cites! Thank you. :) - -sche (discuss) 03:58, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Meh, I'm closing this now. - -sche (discuss) 08:56, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
