The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


Rfv-sense "a thing associated with persons of low intelligence". The quotation now attached to it belongs to the first sense, "used to form words conveying an attitude of contempt or doubt over the subject's intelligence". The definition is badly worded so maybe it can be rewritten to have a supportable meaning. Vox Sciurorum (talk) 23:32, 2 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

As written, I would take sense 1 to be about people, robots, etc which could have intelligence, and sense 2 (this RFVed sense) to be about things, like if a dumb person's shirt were a "shirttard" or their ideology was their "ideotard". I am not optimistic that this exists, but it's what I would interpret the sense to be aiming at, as currently worded... - -sche (discuss) 06:57, 5 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
RFV-failed. I also searched for "friendtard" and "wifetard" as other things that might conceivably be used in reference to things "associated with persons of low intelligence", but I didn't find any citations. - -sche (discuss) 01:07, 28 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
