Information
rfv sense: a type of legal filing. On g.b.c., such filings are capitalized only when part of a title. (I only searched for the plural form to avoid the 4600 hits on the word "information".) I have added and amended the (countable) sense to information. DCDuring 20:42, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I searched for "file an information" on Google Books - almost all of the 910 hits returned are lowercase. This is most definitely a legal term, defined in Black's Law 6th as "An accusation exhibited against a person for some criminal offense, without an indictment". However, even Black's uses the lowercase when it goes on to discuss the history and function of an information. bd2412 T 02:16, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Moved from rfd
Nominated by Hippietrail in June, but apparently it never made it to the nomination page. Polyglot 10:40, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * I think it could be a real word. I have adjusted the definition - you don't "suffer" from something that you enjoy - but not removed the Rfd tag. SemperBlotto 11:10, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * It's possible to suffer from something you enjoy. For example, many people enjoy marijuana but also suffer some of it's consequences. Likewise, pedophiles suffer from prejudice and ignorance of the term's meaning. 24 15:28, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * That's as may be (and what you say about paedophiles is not necessarily true), but it's irrelevant in this case. Terms ending in "-phile" refer to people who love a certain thing (such as "Francophile", someone who loves the French and all things French), and not people who suffer from that love. — Paul G 16:42, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * It does when the -philia is a technical term for a disease or mental illness. —Muke Tever 18:49, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Paul, if you live in the USA, Canada, or some other "civilised" country (besides France or Brazil, maybe), I see no way how it can be false. There's not a chance that a pedo who comes out is going to met completely normally. If you have any, would you trust your kids with a pedophile? 24 20:23, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Attestations: Google Print
 * If you want to use Google print that's fine. It can be an excellent source of material.  But it's not here that we want it.  Quote the sentence as a proper citation on the article page. Eclecticology 04:43:12, 2005-08-02 (UTC)
 * That would certainly be a nice thing to do, but failure to do it is hardly grounds for deletion. Attestation is not in question.  Keep. -dmh 18:15, 16 September 2005 (UTC)

Talk:fry

This is specifying that frying is cooking in hot oil. You can fry using butter or margarine. Restaurants use a shortening for their deep fryers that is semi-solid at room temperature - I'm not sure if that counts as an oil or not. When pan frying their may be little oil invollved, just enough to keep from sticking is this really in or is it closer to 'on' hot oil? If frying on a griddle is it in oil?

Talk:Torah

I realize that in shul, the Torah is the scroll kept in the Aron HaKodesh. But if can't also be a book, just what do I call the book sitting on my shelf that says Torah on the spine (in English and Hebrew)? I suspect the contributor here is pointing out that the Torah used in services is a scroll and not a book, which is fair enough.

As to etymology, the Hebrew תורה may or may not have originally had to do with vision, but from an English perspective — and this is the English entry — the word "torah" is simply a borrowing from Hebrew. Information on the roots of the Hebrew word should go under the Hebrew entry.

With these points in mind, I'm going to revert the etymology, add a second definition for the "book" sense, and mention ceremonial use of the Torah scroll. -dmh 02:25, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Well, I could also call it a Chumash -dmh 02:39, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Yes, the one that you have at home is a Chumash or Torah,but not Sefer Torah as the one in the Shil. Because Sefer Torah is called the scroll in the Aron.

Wiktionary talk:Requests for verification

=Documentation= The documentation of the "Requests for verification" process can be found at Requests for verification/Header.

The entries listed on this page need to meet Criteria for inclusion, which see.

Do not confuse with Requests for deletion which calls into question other criteria than attestability. When an entry is listed on this page, contributors have one month to show that it is attested. Be aware that sometimes just one or two definitions of an entry are listed here, not the entry as a whole.

An RFV closes after a month with a keep or a delete. If the result is delete, the entry or the contested definitions are removed. When kept, the or  tag is removed, and the definitions should not be tagged again without a very good reason.

Entries are listed on this page by tagging them with.

Archiving: Since the end of 2009, verification debates are archived to the entry's talk page even if the whole entry is deleted. If a word is speedily deleted without much discussion, there's usually no need to archive it; it is the archiver's job to decide if there is enough "usable content" to merit an archive.

=Archived discussions=

 * Archived talk page threads from 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009
 * Archived talk page threads from 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014
 * Archived Requests for Verification (discussions of the attestation of individual words) are found on the words' talk pages or WT:RFVA.

Renaming the page
It seems that there is quite a bit of confusion about what RFV is really for. I was confused by it myself here, but someone suggested renaming the page. So I'm making the request here now. —CodeCat 13:08, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Support, I was the one that suggested it. Wiktionary talk:Requests for verification should mention the matter too. Mglovesfun (talk) 21:03, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose renaming this page via this obscure RFM process. Such a renaming has already been proposed once in BP, and it did not fare all that well. This is a matter for a BP and a vote, as "Wiktionary:Requests for verification" a major page for one of the most important processes Wiktionary has. --Dan Polansky 06:19, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think a formal vote is necessary if there is a discussion on the BP with a clear result. Or even a discussion here, advertised well on the BP, with a clear result. —msh210℠ (talk) 16:02, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * But Dan, do you oppose the renaming of the page, or simply discussing the renaming here? --Mglovesfun (talk) 11:48, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Support renaming that page, because the word "attestation" (and its varieties: attest, attested) is widely used and is more accurate than "verification" (and its varieties: verify, verified) in this context. However, I don't mind if the name "Wiktionary:Requests for verification" remains forever, as I'm used to it. And, like Dan, I oppose using this obscure RFM process to rename that widely used page. This proposal should undergo no less than a BP discussion and a vote before being implemented. --Daniel. 12:22, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't care. But if it's renamed, the old name and redirects should remain redirects. —msh210℠ (talk) 16:02, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Re "Such a renaming has already been proposed once in BP" I seem to think Daniel. wanted to merge RFV and RFD into one "RFA" (as it were) which was a horrible idea and shot down in flames and rightly so. I've never seen a request to rename RFV on the Beer Parlor. Oh, and obviously the redirects should be kept; is a free code? Mglovesfun (talk) 21:48, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * RFA is free, so no problems there. -- Prince Kassad 21:50, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Mglovesfun, you remind me to delete Votes/2010-03/Requests for attestation; done. Although, I disagree that is was a "horrible idea and shot down in flames and rightly so". --Daniel. 10:07, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Whatever we call the page, we will need to explain it to new users/contributors. "Verification" is 20 times more common in English than "attestation". Attestation is used of languages in linguistics, but I haven't found it in a linguistics glossary. The best definition I have found says that it is concerned with the verification of the existence of word forms. Our practice has been consistent with the text at the top of the RfV page which says we use for meaning as well. Thus it seems to me that we are only substituting one possible confusion for another. Consequently, Oppose. DCDuring TALK 00:30, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Couple of things that bother me are:
 * Commonness doesn't seem like a good criterion, otherwise why not Requests for the (the being the most common English word according to the
 * There is an explanation at the top of the RFV page, just I imagine people don't read it. The page is pretty massive, it's hard to blame people who miss it.
 * Mglovesfun (talk) 16:53, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Which word is more likely to be adequate for most users without a look at the top of the page? (I'd bet "verification") Which will most likely not discourage users by seeming technical? (I'd bet "verification") Which is more likely to cause a user to look up the word or look at the top of the page? (I'd bet "attestation") Which is more misleading when looked up in mainspace? (I'd say, it's a draw: neither's common uses correspond to ours.)
 * Which of these considerations gives a clear advantage to renaming the page? Is there any other way we can make it easier for users to understand what we mean by RfV or RfA? DCDuring TALK 17:52, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't we want the term that makes people look at the top of the page? (Otoh, that means it should be called Please read the prologue of this page to see what it's all about (WT:PRTPOTPTSWIAA).) —msh210℠ (talk) 18:01, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Support renaming to Please read the prologue of this page to see what it's all about. —Ruakh TALK 18:27, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I support, too, renaming to Please read the prologue of this page to see what it's all about. --Daniel 06:02, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll oppose Please read the prologue of this page to see what it's all about, on the grounds if I don't, it might actually happen. Mglovesfun (talk) 00:16, 18 June 2011 (UTC)

Support Attestation is the clear, correct term, and the common one in lexicography. Verification is useful to explain its meaning to someone learning about lexicography. One can't even get started without reading our explanation, so what's the point of dumbing down our language? Just look at the complicated, specialized wikitext of any entry; using a correct title here is around 10,000th on the list of biggest obstacles for a new editor. —Michael Z. 2012-01-27 15:50 z

Plummeting discussions
Why is it that a lot of these good discussions that excite me seem to not get any input for weeks or even months after getting a bit of input for like a day, while others do? Such as backwards long jump or knurd? Is there a tag we can use to draw attention to certain topics that need more input? Philmonte101 (talk) 23:33, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

Splitting WT:RFV
Requests for verification becomes lengthy (at the moment 890,026 bytes) which can take some while to load. So how about splitting it? Splitting it up by months doesn't seem to be a good idea, but how about splitting it by scripts: Latin script (English, Latin, etc.) and non-Latin scripts (Russian, Chinese, Japanese, etc.)? -80.133.113.199 19:16, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

 * So many of the RFVed terms are English (since this is en.wikt) that I think the Latin-script page would still have the problem. Equinox ◑ 19:45, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I would go with English and non-English versions. I can help with English, but rarely on non-English requests.  And I would do the same for RFD. - TheDaveRoss 19:58, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I would not be opposed to that idea. Other than maybe French, once in a blue moon, I can't help with anything besides English either. Splitting RFV and RFD would make them so much easier to navigate. Andrew Sheedy (talk) 20:41, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

That's why I gave you a link to [//en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=Wiktionary:Requests_for_verification&action=edit&section=new make a new section here] with a pipe to "make a new section here".  You can find it by searching the page for "make a new section here".  It's in the instructions - right were someone would expect to find instructions on how to make a new section here.

 * In other words you haven't fixed the link I'm talking about at all. Why not just remove it altogether, or replace it with a pointer to the template at the top of the page?  It is worse than useless to provide a link that doesn't work, and would be doing something stupid if it did work.  It causes confusion and wastes time. Spinning Spark  21:18, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

Cheers, Facts707 (talk) 16:38, 7 June 2021 (UTC)

Is the template rfv-etym outlawed now?
Because this page doesn't mention it and the text suggests that for each etymology one finds dubious, one should go start a discussion at the Etymology Scriptorium. Which would be an insanely stupid rule making requests for verification harder than normal on a wiki. I may believe that a verification is needed without wanting to be caught up in a discussion. 62.73.69.121 07:38, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

 * The idea is to add rfv-etym, then click the little + where it says, "(Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)" and start a discussion at the Scriptorium. If you just tag it and don't start a discussion, in all likelihood that tag will just sit there for all eternity and no one will do anything about it. Wiktionary is not as big into drive-by tagging as Wikipedia is. —Mahāgaja · talk 08:01, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Yes, I've also noted that Wiktionary isn't as big into verifiability as Wikipedia is either, and the result is a sea of original research by anonymous online hobbyists in a highly technical sphere that requires specialist competence; 'the idea' is to have to spend weeks debating the merits of the views of every amateur etymologist as a condition for requesting a citation. It would be extremely simple for the tags to be automatically reported at the Scriptorium, but apparently whoever wants to request a source has to be forced to discuss and 'motivate' their request at length - every claim by an unknown editor about the shape of a 6000-year-old reconstructed root is assumed true by default and you are expected to argue why it is so implausible that it even needs - gasp! - sourcing. I wonder why a source should even be requested, the community discussion can still reach the conclusion that it's right and all scholars are wrong. IMO, it's better to tag the original research as such 'for all eternity' than to mislead the public that it has some authoritativeness.--62.73.69.121 10:23, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

"reference book", "reference work" and "encyclopedia"
Is reference book indeed a synonym for encyclopedia? If so, what is the relationship between reference book and reference work? According to Wikipedia, encyclopedia is one of the several kinds of reference works. Also, Wikipedia redirects reference book to reference work. --Daniel Polansky 15:04, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

 * I would say that reference book is a hyponym of encyclopedia rather than a synonym, since "reference books" include dictionaries, thesauruses, chronologies, treatises, and so on. A synonym of reference book would be reference work, but reference works also include papers (scientific papers, etc.). —Stephen 20:53, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Well, we aren't, are we? Mglovesfun (talk) 13:43, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

Incorrect transliteration?
It says encyclopaedia is "an incorrect form of Ancient Greek ἐγκύκλιος παιδείᾱ". If that were true, the same would apply to the words paedagogue, paediatrics, etc. Hmm ... would the British variants always be "incorrect" and the American ones always "correct"? There's another way of looking at this. When you transcribe something from one language to another and those languages have completely different alphabets, there's not always one "correct" way of transliterating. That is why you see variants of the phrase assalamu alaikum, for example, like assalamu alaykum or assalamu aleikum, which is a little less common. What I'm saying is that I don't know that any one of those variants is "correct" or "incorrect". We're dealing with different alphabets here.
 * The part that's incorrect is not the ae, but the fact that it is not encycliopaedia or encycliopedia, with an i after the l. Paedagogue, paediatrics are fine. There are multiple ways to transliterate Ancient Greek, but none of them allows the random deletion of an i representing a iota. — Eru·tuon 04:01, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
 * You maybe misunderstood what I wrote. I didn't say anything about an "io". If you ask me, the "ae" more closely resembles the "αι" in the Greek than the American "a". Also, you're confused about the roots of these words. They all use a variant of the same root word παῖς. So the same thing that applies to "encyclopaedia" would have to apply to "paedagogue" and "paediatrics" or else it doesn't apply to any of them. It's one or the other. And if you ask me, it's the latter. In any event, we could say both variants are acceptable, but I would never, ever say that the British variant is "incorrect" and the American one "correct".
 * No, you are the one who is misunderstanding. The entry does not say encyclopaedia is wrong for using ae. — Eru·tuon 04:41, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
 * That is exactly what it says. Did you give yourself a chance to even read what it actually says? It says, at the very beginning: "From New Latin encyclopaedia, an incorrect form of Ancient Greek ἐγκύκλιος παιδείᾱ".

 * By the way, I do get your point about "encycliopedia" or "encycliopaedia". One wonders why "enkúklios" (ἐγκύκλιος) dropped the "i" sound and became "encyclopaedia" and "encyclopedia". That's not the point I was making, but you made that point and it's a fair point to make.

 * All I was saying is that between "encyclopedia" and "encyclopaedia", there's no way that "encyclopaedia" is less correct than "encyclopedia". It's sooner the other way around; that is, "encyclopaedia" more closely resembles the "ai" sound in παιδείᾱ (paideíā) than "encyclopedia". So if we're going to say they're both correct, that's one thing, but I don't see how anyone could conclude that "encyclopaedia" is incorrect, as it says there. I would at least say the British version more closely resembles the Greek, but I don't see how anyone could conclude that it is incorrect and that the American version is correct. At the very least, I think the British version (encyclopaedia) is just as correct as the American version (encyclopedia), although it might well be that it is more correct. Again, I would never, ever say that the British version (encyclopaedia) is incorrect and that the American version (encyclopedia) is correct, as it says there.
 * Please sign your posts with four tildes ( ~ ). Yes, you're right that ae as opposed to e is perfectly fine. But as I said, the etymology section is not commenting on the ae. It is commenting on the fact that the Greek was not transliterated as Latin, which would be the precise and correct transliteration based on the usual rules of Latinization of Greek words. — Eru·tuon 07:06, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Oh, now I know what happened. We're both on the same page, we maybe just didn't realise it. You and I agree completely, then. I agree, "ae" is acceptable just like "e" and vice versa. Do you see what it says there, though? I wonder why someone wrote that the British version is incorrect. I wish I knew, because I always want to know what arguments people are making, although at the moment, I think our way of looking at it is correct. It's quite disturbing to me that it says "encyclopaedia" is "an incorrect form of Ancient Greek ἐγκύκλιος παιδείᾱ" and I don't know why someone thinks that. 75.165.119.19 07:18, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay. But again, it's not saying the British form is incorrect; it says "New Latin encyclopaedia" is incorrectly transliterated. See my last comment. I have explained how the Latin form is incorrect. It should be encyclius paedia, not encyclopaedia. — Eru·tuon 07:26, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

Mormonism defintion
"(Mormonism) A subdivision of the LDS Church, smaller than and part of a stake, but smaller than a ward." - Shouldn't one of those "smaller than"s be "larger than"? Thryduulf 16:47, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Maybe it's confusing, but the answer is no. One of the units of administration of the LDS Church is a stake.  Stakes are subdivided, or made up of, wards and, sometimes, branches (you cannot have a stake made entirely of branches, but you can have a stake consisting entirely of wards).  Wards and branches, therefore, are both smaller than stakes and are parts of stakes.  However, branches are smaller units than wards.  I hope that helps.  — V-ball 23:18, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Spanish translation
I believe that ramo (m) is incorrectly included as a Spanish translation of "woody part of a tree arising from the trunk and usually dividing". Rama (f) is a branch, but ramo is a bouquet or bunch (of flowers) or branch, but only in other senses (e.g. of a company). I have not yet found any source to suggest that ramo has this additional meaning. KaryAnca 16:24, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
