bobbitt
I have just fallen about laughing. I was inspired by the articles Lorna Bobbitt and John Wayne Bobbitt to add an entry for bobbitt. That definition is bizarre enough, but what really creased me up was when I naively declared it to be a stub.

Ouch!

Requests for deletion
Peter, Before I revert my correction, I'd like to know which is correct. I saw your request to have Template:Wiksaurus:Shorten deleted, and fixed the syntax so it pointed instead to the WikiSaurus:Shorten entry, but now I'm not sure. Did you intend to request they both be deleted?

FYI: An admin, admonished me for clogging the automated list (with no corresponding request in Requests for deletion) quite recently.

--Connel MacKenzie 08:27, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Calling card
Hi Connel,

I see you have corrected all kind of silly mistakes I have made around the site recently. I think these will reduce in number as I get used to it. I am familiar with Wikipedia but find some of the local practices on Wiktionary a little hard to remember sometimes. Please be patient with the newbies, esp. me. :-) -- Dizzley 08:27, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * I was a newcomer quite recently; I feel your pain. Let me just say, Welcome Newcomer!  Enjoy!  Yes, it is different from 'pedia over here.  Hopefully you are not upset that I made corrections to your entries.  The more subtle the mistake, the less I like to draw attention to it.  Most of the time.  --Connel MacKenzie 08:55, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * That's the attitude! I feel more at home already. I've been in some of the dingier corners if you look at my contributions. I thought the frequent word list you collated (with help) was very useful as a prompt. --Dizzley 09:03, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Shorten
In reply, I want to delete the WikiSaurus:Shorten page, and the WikiSaurus:shorten page needs to be changed into a real WikiSaurus page for 'shorten'. Can you help?

It seems I got the wrong end of the stick having read the text in the WikiSaurus template. Dizzley 08:37, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * WikiSaurus is a new concept here. I have not been one of its proponents (to say the least!)  At the same time, I do see the extroardinary value of a thesaurus; my worry is that it may not fit well into the goal of a dictionary.  For the time being I've tried to limit what I do with it.

 * This past week, Richardb (inadvertently) informed me of the template characteristics of pages in the Wiktionary:Projects namespace. I am very encouraged that a similar technique can be used to make WikiSaurus quite functional.  But, as they say, the proof is in the pudding.  I've yet to see a sample entry that meets my personal expectations of a thesaurus entry.  (I'm quite hung up on the extra click from an article to a WS: entry, as you may have noticed.)

 * It's too bad there are so few people on Wiktionary on the weekends. I wish someone more involved with WS were around to help you.  The last I heard, they were still experimenting on only a tiny handful of entries.

 * What I would do:
 * In WikiSaurus:Shorten put the text #REDIRECT WikiSaurus:shorten
 * Then start the "real" article for WikiSaurus:shorten as normal.

 * I hope this is at least a little helpful. --Connel MacKenzie 08:55, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

RfD vs. Rfd
The text appearing in the template, apparently, is (mostly) wrong. Adminstrators are volunteers, just as you and I. Some check the automated list (infrequently) but others do not. At least two feel that even if an entry appears on the automated list, it still deserves a discussion on the manual list.

Also of note: Here, RfD is only a redirect to rfd. The "Sentence case" vs. "Title Case" extremists gone too far, I say. --Connel MacKenzie 08:59, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * I'm going to drop a note in the Rfdiddley-dee talk page. Dizzley 09:05, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

from Talk:Objects
Connel -

You say keep objects - do you expect a redirecting entry for every plural noun in the dictionary? It seems wrong to me.--Dizzley 21:56, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC).

 * Ultimately, yes. For external searches having the plurals defined is crucial. Database "cost" is negligable.  Occasional irregular plurals benefit from having separate entries. Plurals with extraneous meanings require separate entries.  External spell-check searches ultimately will depend on this assumption.  "bots" later in the process will auto-populate entries (I bet.)

 * The only argument against the concept is that it could be construed as artificially inflating the count. But Wiktionary is not paper, so even that argument is specious. --Connel MacKenzie 23:42, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)

-- moved to talk:objects

Your article "review"
I'm quite surprised to read that a review is a "revision or bringing up-to-date". I completely agree that it is a revision. But both revision and review leave their object unchanged, whereas a bringing up-to-date can be an actual change of something. Ncik
 * Hi. Review is the same as revise -> to "look again". When a text is changed for a new edition, it can be safely described as "revised". I am looking for a citation. However, I am less comfortable with it now, and may delete or reword it... Thanks for the heads up. There are a couple more senses to add, such as, review (project management, engineering): a formal or informal examination of a requirement, specification or computer program; a general oversight of what's going on in the word of x, y, z (leads to the Times Lit. Review etc.). Thanks. --Dizzley 22:29, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Pardon Me
for butting in, but we had a vandal adding a bunch of links into several entries, and as this was one, I went ahead and deleted them from here, too. Hope you don't mind. . . .Welcome to Wiktionary--Alia H 05:52, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Re: Calling card
Well, I didn't actually move it. I added it without seeing that you had already added it with the other name, and got myself confused. I used to be an IBM mainframe Systems programmer by the way. SemperBlotto 11:04, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

. . . and my last job was Database analyst for Tesco Stores. SemperBlotto 16:27, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

way
Peter,

I moved your meaning of slipway down to Derived terms in way. I think your meaning for ways likewise belongs in a separate entry. Since that is a different word and not just a plural, it (also) really deserves the clarity of its own entry.

Thanks also for entering the various plurals and other senses. There does seem to be growing concensus that they ultimately will be needed. I guess I was wrong that any sort of decision had previously been reached, though.

Talk:draw

untitled
There's some missing definitions here, but I don't know how to define them:

to draw a salary, to draw power, to draw water, etc.

Sense 9 is wrong 'draw' is the act of dragging the penitent/accused/victim to the place where he is to be punished. Andrew massyn I have rfv'd this sense. Andrew massyn 19:33, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

drawed
I noticed a bunch of Google hits for drawed. At the very least it could be cited as non-standard jocular etc., but is drawed actually correct for any of the definitions, or was it ever considered so? DAVilla 17:52, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

# 5 under verbs
"to end a game with neither side winning The result will be a draw if nobody scores soon."

The sentence uses draw as a noun, not a verb. I don't know if this definition is wrong, or if this sentence was poorly written. It does seem odd to say "He will draw the game if he makes that move."

Wikipedia cleanup
I'm cleaning the wikipedia page for the word draw. The following meanings don't seem to be in wiktionary yet, and I'm just dropping them off for other people to work them in.

Sgeureka 15:27, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Draw is a colloquial term for cannabis.
 * In a commission-based job, a draw is an advance on future (potential) commissions given to an employee by the employer.
 * In geography, a draw is a dry stream bed that drains surface water only during periods of heavy rain or flooding.
 * In firearms, drawing is a term for brandishing one's gun.
 * In archery, to draw is the term for the act of preparing the arrow to shoot.

draw the curtains
to draw the curtains mean to open or close, or even to move them.

poker

 * 1) A hand which is unlikely the best hand, but which has a chance to become one with future card.

It it heckers, that's perhaps a fact (subjectively speaking) about a draw, but it's not even close to correct. The poker sense for the verb isn't one I know, with Texas Hold'em you can draw but you can't "trade in cards". Mglovesfun (talk) 16:04, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Noun definition
I'm missing a definition of the noun "draw" as used in this sentence: "The challenge to catch 'em all is truly the game's biggest draw". I know what it means, but I'm not able to define it. Could someone more experienced think of a way to phrase it? Jon Harald Søby (talk) 21:08, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

 * A quality that draws people in. --WikiTiki89 21:16, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

to a draw
Does it deserve an entry, as in He Wrestled Death To A Draw? --Backinstadiums (talk) 10:12, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

"drawal"
I'm surprised there isn't an entry for "drawal", a word back-formed from "withdrawal". I've heard it in contexts where something is getting drawn (i.e. extracted) from something else, as in "I'm going to get a blood drawal next week." I know this word might be quite rare, but is it common enough to warrant an entry? 2603:6081:5600:33:5318:F62E:D69:C71 23:56, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

To steep ≠ leave to allow flavour to increase
To steep ≠ leave to allow flavour to increase

The current article contains:

”(intransitive, transitive, of drinks, especially tea) To steep, leave temporarily so as to allow the flavour to increase”

Except for the meaning “go away” I do not know of a meaning for “leave” that is intransitive. Partly for that reason I think the part of the explanation after the comma needs improving.Redav (talk) 23:28, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Though grammatically masculine, the term is used for both men and women. However, the specifically feminine term also exists along with phrases like, , , etc. The term  refers to an old-fashioned Jewish woman or to a wife, and can also be derogatory.
 * In traditional or Jewish contexts, this term is often used where "man" or "guy" would be expected in English, to refer to a male person not known by name. Similarly, a male stranger could be addressed with.

IS there some reason this British word isn't indicated as British? --Connel MacKenzie 02:12, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * What do you mean, "isn't" ;) - TheDaveRoss 19:32, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Apostrophe
I was always taught at school that this should be written "math's" with the apostrophe denoting the missing letters from "mathematics" (cf. "isn't", etc.) There seems to be no mention of this form. Has "maths" without the apostrophe now become so prevalent that "math's" is out-dated? I'm British, BTW. 193.130.11.17 09:48, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
 * math's is wrong. it is maths.

 * Yes, apparently "maths" is the typical way it is written in Britain, not "math's". Just like how in the United States we write it as "math" and not "math'". 2600:1006:B154:B536:0:4C:9A19:101 21:15, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Australia
Australians follow the English abbreviation of Mathematics and use "Maths" when referring to any kind of Mathematics, plural or not. I can see the logic of using an apostrophe to denote missing letters, but most Australians would not include the apostrophe.

North America
While this use is plausible, I don't recall ever hearing it. Relative to math (used to mean multiple math courses) this is very rare. Is 'maths' more common in Canada? Is that why it isn't isn't tagged as 'rare'? --Connel MacKenzie 06:59, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Nobody in my corner of Ontario uses "maths". --Bran

North America
Please provide a citation that there is actual colloquial usage of 'maths' in North America as the plural form of 'Math Course'. The term 'maths' is often mistakenly used as the plural for math, as a result of the speaker improperly assuming the plural of 'math' is 'maths' and ignoring the fact that 'mathematic' is the full word and therefore 'mathematics' is the correct plural form. British literature is rife with the usage of 'maths' as the plural to 'math course', however the same cannot be said about North American literature. Perhaps it's the geographical reference that is incorrect here.

The terms math (US) and maths (UK) are short forms of the same singular word - mathematics. I don't believe that the word "maths" is ever used as a plural (anywhere). SemperBlotto 21:36, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Currently the definition includes 'maths' as the colloquial usage for a plural form of 'math course'. This is what I am contesting. Under the second noun definition of 'maths' either the geographical reference is incorrect or the definition itself is incorrect.

I have come across the colloquial usage of 'maths' in North America, in mocking sarcastic usage when commenting on the poor mathematics skills of another person. However the usage is intended to be incorrect as it is intended to mock not correct. Eg. 'Their maths is no good.' Normally the term 'maths' in this usage is paired with intentional grammatic mistakes to accentuate the mocking tone of the sentence.

(Apologies I started this initially on the feedback page, perhaps it should be here)Mifdeath 22:13, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

The usage 'maths' as a colloquial plural usage for 'math course' would in this case makes 'maths' countable as in; "I am taking 6 maths." or, "How many maths are you taking?" Frankly this lends itself more to erroneous word usage than to colloquial speech. - Mifdeath 23:15, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

The word "Maths" makes perfect sense when you create a sentence such as: "How many maths classes are you taking this year?". Maths includes several types of mathmatics such as algebra, geometry, calculus and statistics. That is why maths is plural and has an "S" on the end of it.
