RFV-Sense: "yes, in many backyards". I've only ever seen this in contrast to "NIMBY", as "yes, in my backyard". grendel|khan 20:31, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

- Perhaps it might be an idea to merge senses 1 and 2 so that both readings are presented on one line. It seems to me that the difference in meaning is marginal, with one reading perhaps stressing a notion of solidarity or a shared burden a little more explicitly.

- I read the "phrase" sense as referring to the use of the word to represent a specific phrase, and the noun/adjective senses as referring to its use to describe the movement or opinions associated with that phrase, i.e., there are two phrases, but one somewhat-broad meaning. grendel|khan 17:32, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
