RFD is basically a vote so we could get rid of the word dog if everyone agreed on it. But yeah I suppose the question is can we find some good citations that are unambiguously not typos/scannos. Equinox 21:25, 12 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

Kept No deletion votes other than nominator; no votes of any kind in four months. May be RfVed if desired. Purplebackpack89 20:42, 25 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
