Rfd-sense: dramatization of the ! punctuation.
Really? Not just ! + ! for added emphasis? You can say that something is very very hard, this doesn't warrant an entry on very very though. -- Liliana • 17:08, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
- Yet we tend to include SOP meanings of terms that also have idiomatic meanings.—msh210℠ (talk) 17:15, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
- Keep per msh210, but rewrite. (And [[!]] should mention that this sort of usage is possible. Note that people don't use .. as a sort of emphatic period, nor ,,, nor ;;. Offhand, in fact, the only other punctuation mark that I can think of that seems to be emphasized by duplication is ?.) —RuakhTALK 17:56, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

:If anything, redirect to [[!]] with the usage note there per Ruakh. DCDuring TALK 18:18, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
- We have idiomatic senses of !!, so no can do AFAICT.—msh210℠ (talk) 19:01, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
- Kept. — Ungoliant (Falai) 02:52, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
