bonelore

bonelore is not cited. Please provide attesting quotations, or this will be deleted. --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:44, 5 December 2014 (UTC) Failed. — Keφr 12:10, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

dragonlore

Cited, but I had to change the definition (lore isn't scientific study). Equinox ◑ 18:15, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

• RFV passed; quotations at dragonlore. --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:30, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

whalelore

Actually RFV-sense: "The branch of zoology dealing with cetaceans, including dolphins and porpoises as well" as per diff.

Not enough quotations now that I removed those for the forms "whale-lore" and "whale lore". Please provide quotations for the form "whalelore" so spelled, without hyphen and without space, to attest that sense. --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:40, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

I would even read the remaining citation (somewhat mention-y anyway) as supporting the more specific sense. Copied here for posterity:

• 2008, The Oxford Dictionary of Literary Terms:

  [...] and a novel may be said to have a documentary element on the same basis, as with the cetology (whalelore) exhibited in many chapters of Herman Melville's MobyDick (1851).

Either way, failed. — Keφr 18:34, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

deathlore

• Cited. —Mr. Granger (talk • contribs) 18:06, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
• RFV passed; quotations at deathlore. --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:31, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

lakelore

Cited: some quotations are at lakelore. Are they good? --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:42, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

They look fine to me, if somewhat old. May be tagged rare or archaic, but passed. — Keφr 12:10, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

horselore

Please note that horselore and lakelore appear to be cited already, whalelore has citations but they are mostly for whale lore. Renard Migrant (talk) 17:19, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

• RFV passed: quotations are at horselore. --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:43, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

winelore

Another one that seems to be already cited. Please untag if you're happy. Renard Migrant (talk) 18:38, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

• RFV passed: quotations are at winelore. --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:34, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
