Rfv-sense for "stimming" and "to stim" definitions. These were added by an anonymous IP editor and may possibly be joke/vandalism edits (as those terms are often in reference to actions made by those with some form of autism). My sources only give reference to one's body being bent or crooked and not of these other meanings. Bumm13 (talk) 13:16, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
Looks like pure tosh to me. Although this character isn't used in modern Japanese (not found in Kanjidic, though it has apparently been used historically), the Unihan database entry does give JA readings. These readings, yaseru and yamu, mean “to lose weight; to wither; to become sterile” and “to be ill; to become ill; to cease; to die down”. If this character is actually used for the stim meaning, it would appear to be language-specific, and thus it shouldn't go in the ==Translingual==section. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 18:08, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
- RFV failed: no attesting quotations provided. As an auxiliary check, Google translate does not show a corresponding translation for Chinese or Japanese, although it does not give "bent, crooked" either, so it seems unusable as a check for "癴". When no quotations were provided, the addition is anonymous, and Bumm13 checked his sources, the process-driven removal is inevitable. --Dan Polansky (talk) 07:39, 28 June 2014 (UTC)
