New welfare sense was added with a citation from a non-durably archived source, that's more reference than use. Do we have uses in three durably archived sources?--Prosfilaes (talk) 21:42, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

It can be found plentifully on Usenet as a verb (in welfare-payment senses) but perhaps not as a noun, unless as part of "gibs muh dat" etc. Also note that this seems to be mocking black pronunciation so would need sense/gloss to indicate that it relates to black people (in the US one assumes).
