Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Enneagon. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Enneagon~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:45, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:steep

Does anyone know an antonym for "Steep: of a high gradient"? --Bob. - gradual, sometimes shallow (of a descent).

If the sense ''(US) To make tea (or other beverage) by placing leaves in hot water. '' is US only, then what is the correct word in other countries? (Do they brew tea?) JillianE 17:46, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

In the UK we brew or just make tea (in a teapot). Steep is resrved for non-food processes such as extracting drugs from plants by soaking in hot water. SemperBlotto|Talk 17:59, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

Steeply raked
A "steeply raked" windscreen is one that is close to horizontal (as in a sports car), not vertical. The underlying meaning here seems to be "sharply angled away from the conventional plane" (the original orientation of windscreens was vertical). Is there a way we can reflect this? --Jayen466 13:27, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Trying to keep this short, as it is a dictionary entry.

1. The name of the group is "eudicots", not "eudicotyledons". Try Google. Try the literature.

2. It is nice to try and explain "tricolpate" but

a) it adds extra length

b) this is better done under "tricolpate"

c) the explanation offered was incomplete, reality is more complex than that

d) it is somewhat inappropriate as it is one of the less visible characteristics of this group.

3) The name Rosopsida is somewhat in use, but is this enough to be included here? Especially as this name may as well refer to other groups.

Is what has happened to the people of the gulf area a modern day diaspora?

Yes at least two authors in 10/31/05 USA Today:

"More than 1 million displaced Americans have been spread across all 50 states, creating a diaspora greater than the 1930s Dust Bowl."

Kashmiri diaspora followed the outbreak of armed struggle in 1989. Kashmiris are largely a stagnant population (except for a small trading section) reluctant to undertake short journey's within the valley.

submariner

Noun

 * 1) A member of the crew of a submarine.
 * 2)  A pitcher that throws with an underhand motion.
 * Jones was a submariner and could often confuse a batter with his unorthodox delivery.

Usage notes

 * This word is generally pronounced like sub- + mariner (for example, in the Canadian Navy, Royal Navy and the U.S. Navy); however, since the prefix sub- was apparently deemed to imply inferiority (as in subpar or subhuman) rather than the actual meaning of "under", this pronunciation may be considered offensive by non-submariners. The pronunciation submarine + -er, but with stress on third syllable, is preferred by Naval Brass. As evidence of submariners' collective lack of concern for the opinion of non-submariners on any matter, many submariners refer to themselves by the much more negative terms of "sewer-pipe" sailor, or "bubble-head". Submariners often refer to sailors that work on the surface of the ocean as "skimmers" or "targets."
 * The baseball term is however pronounced

Wiktionary talk:Verifiability

dmh's alternative about "Dubious sources"
The primary requirement in supporting dictionary entries is to verify usage. This is significantly different from verifying the contents of an encyclopedia article. For example, if a random blog makes a statement such as "the average American has 3.8 cousins and 7.4 nephews and nieces," there is no particular reason to believe that the average American actually has 3.8 cousins. However, there is very good reason to believe that the words "American," "cousin," and "average" are in use.

In this regard, the appearance of a term is much more trustworthy than a purported definition. I someone asserts "It is incorrect to use the word podium to refer to a lectern," there is no particular reason to believe this, regardless of whether the statement occurs on the internet or in print. As we are documenting usage, usage trumps opinion. In this particular case, it is not hard to find examples where podium is clearly used to mean a lectern or similar item.

In general, it should be assumed that people use language in order to convey meaning, and not to influence the editors of dictionaries. There are clear exceptions to this, in which a particular party tries to promote a favorite word or usage, often of that party's own invention. Such exceptions are generally easy to identify and in any case, they are the exception.

What are we trying to prove?
Part of the confusion over verifiability arises over the need to prove several different things. Here is an attempt to break this down. I will occasionally refer to currently controversial entries because the issues are close at hand. Naturally, I have an opinion about such terms, but my focus here is to highlight issues, not to push for any particualar term (I do this elsewhere :-).

First, we may wish to know whether a term is in use at all. This is where the infamous "This gets xxxx google hits" is appropriate. "This gets 1 million google hits." is an easily verifiable statement, and past some arbitrary limit, should be enough to establish that a term is worth studying. Exactly where that limit should be is open to debate and compromise. I would tend to put it in the range of 1,000 or 10,000. Others would prefer more like 1,000,000, and I can understand such a desire. By either measure, terms like webinar are clearly worth an entry, while a term like choad may or may not be, and one like bot herd would need separate justification.

However, mere google hits do not establish meaning, nor do they speak to idiomaticity ("it is" gets billions of hits). I believe that establishing meaning breaks down to two cases:

 * Technical senses of terms are established by authority, whether formally or informally. E.g., SI units like meter and second have very precise official definitions.  Terms like luminosity distance may not be controlled by a central authority, but still have rigorously defined meanings which are available through various more or less official channels.  If I try to use luminosity distance incorrectly in a journal submission, I won't get published, and conversely, if I run across it in a journal, I can be confident of what it means.  This also applies to non-academic fields; terms like I-beam or A4 paper have standard definitions.  In such cases, it is imperative to track down the most authoritative source available and reference it clearly.  We are trying to verify that some relevant authority has blessed a given definition of a term.
 * Colloquial senses are, pretty much by definition, not established by authority (language mavens to the contrary). They must be gleaned from context, known senses of the term and related terms, etymology, history and so forth.  Existing dictionaries have done considerable work in this regard, but language evolves quickly enough that it is impossible to be completely up to date.  This is where the "wiki" part of "wiktionary" comes into play.  It is our job here to collect usages of terms and try to glean definitions from them in a necessarily somewhat subjective process, but one which must ultimately be supported by actual quotations.  We are trying to verify that people have used terms in a given way.

This second point, as far as I can tell, is the source of much of the disagreement over verifiability. In these cases, we are simply trying to establish that someone actually used a term to convey meaning in a given language. We don't care if this person is making a factually true statement, we don't greatly care if the person is anonymous or pseudonymous, except in rare cases, and we don't care whether the term in question is slang, vulgarity, recently coined or considerd distasteful for whatever reason.

There are legitimate reasons to prefer stable sources, including printed sources, in such cases. However, if I find a quotation on google groups such as "According to a most conservative estimate, if one pandava jubok will have draupodi-choda 3 times a week, 3x5 = 15 chodas/week = two chodas daily for the poor girl continuously for 14 years, RAIN or SHINE." (see ), it's very clearly verifiable that someone used the word "choda" here. It's even reasonably clear from context that in this case the word means "sex act". Would I prefer to see a well-proofread printed source using the term? Of course. I would also love to see feedback from native speakers. But none of this keeps a quotation such as this from being usable evidence. It shows the term in use, and thanks to Google's archiving, it can be expected to remain verifiable over time. And there are plenty more like it.

This example is particularly instructive because a search of relevant print sources failed to turn up the term. Restricting verifiability to print sources would cut out precisely the kind of terms that wiktionary is best suited to documenting. N.B., by this I don't mean strictly vulgarity, slang, netspeak and such, though those will likely be overrepresented. I mean anything which is not likely to have made it through the usual channels. It would also include developing senses of existing terms. -dmh 20:30, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

Verifiability
This is a policy think tank that was pulled off of Wikipedia, and after an unsuccessful attempt at adapting it to Wiktionary, sat around for four years. This page is pointless, given that all of Wiktionary is original research, and verifiability is not a requirement at all, short of the attestation requirement than a word exists. --Yair rand 23:28, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

Talk:wench

Is there someone to explain why this article has been categorized to be cleaned up?

Wench was formerly used to define a lively little girl.

Verb definition?
Now I am not sure of the definition of the verb 'wench,' but the definition currently up there is 'to wench.' Can someone fix this please?

Not really comfortable editing entries, and don't want to spoil somebody's joke, but surely the "Amy Houlston" definition is a joke or a flirt? Jensfiederer 21:05, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

RFV discussion: December 2018–January 2019
A black woman. The sole citation (a slave trader referring to a slave as "a tight, likely wench") could easily be one of the preceding senses, such as a woman in general, or a lively/sexy one. Equinox ◑ 01:11, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

 * For what it's worth, Century does have this, as sense 3c: " A colored woman of any age; a negress or mulattress, especially one in service. [Colloq., U.S.]" They offer no citations and it seems impossible and possibly useless to distinguish it from our sense 2 (Century's sense 3a). - -sche (discuss) 03:15, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Strike the last part; it seems I should not have been so sceptical. - -sche (discuss) 19:09, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

 * It would be the natural, although archaic, female counterpart of sense 6.  --Lambiam 09:01, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

 * In fact, I notice many old dictionaries have this, including Webster's, Worcester's, Robert Hunter's, and Ogilvie's, which could be evidence in favour of interpreting ambiguous citations as being this. That spurred me to look further, and I found Hannah Rosen, Terror in the Heart of Freedom (2009), which quotes a 2 March 1866 article "Sharp Wench" from the Appeal about "a colored girl [who] was fined ten dollars", where "the Provost allowed a guard to wait on the wench", following which Rosen writes: "It is telling that a term that meant female child would be used by white Americans in the nineteenth century for black women of all ages (much like "boy" was used for black men of all ages), and particularly a term that also had the combined implications of servitude and illicit sexual behavior."
 * It also seems to have been a sufficiently widely understood category that it was used in minstrel shows:
 * 2014, Kirsten Pullen, Like a Natural Woman:
 * So complete was this illusion, claims Lott, that many audience members, including Mark Twain's mother, believed they were seeing authentic, biologically black performers on New York stages. Of course, wench characters seem to especially test the bounds of authentic performance. [...] Extant photographs and engravings of wench performers do not always represent them as blacked up, [...] In antebellum minstrel shows, wench songs were most often sung about mulatto women rather than by them.
 * Perhaps most intriguing are old records which seem to refer to women suspected of being black/enslaved: "Nancy Basset, 28, likely wench, mulatto / Proved to be free. Certified free as per General Birch Certificate. / Patience Jackson, 23, very likely wench, mulatto / Says she was born free Rhode Island. / Certified free as per General Birch Certificate."

The adjective sense, said to mean "(slang) attractive, good-looking". — SGconlaw (talk) 20:51, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

 * So far I have only managed to find one (on citations page). Kiwima (talk) 21:27, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks, that’s one more than me! Hmmm, that quote doesn’t seem to support the “attractive, good-looking” sense. It appears to be the adjective form of sense 1 or 1.1 of the noun. Looks like the adjective sense should be transferred to the citations page for now. — SGconlaw (talk) 04:50, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * In the context it seems more like it has the sense of “maidservant” or “peasant girl”, no longer stunningly beautiful, clad in accordance with a lowly stature, unlikely to attract much attention. It is not hard to find comparable instances of “very girl-next-door”, which IMO do not make an adjective – even though we classify it as one.  --Lambiam 09:26, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * "wenchiest" has several citations, but not exactly the challenged meaning. DTLHS (talk) 20:18, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I also note that has added some quotes with the word, which would seem to support an adjective , rather than "wench" Kiwima (talk) 20:20, 16 January 2020 (UTC).

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Goatboy. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Goatboy~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
