Apron worn while naked. Seems to be a term invented by TVTropes. Equinox ◑ 21:59, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
- The citations now added are "naked apron bit" and "naked apron scene": I believe that, here, "naked" modifies "scene" (as in nude scene): it's not a (naked-apron) scene but a naked (apron-scene). So I don't think the cites are valid. Equinox ◑ 07:21, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
- Some quotes have "naked apron" between quotation marks. I believe this suggests that it's a set phrase.
- I got 4 citations (+1 citation for "naked-apron" with an hyphen).
- I believe the entry is cited. But if I'm wrong, then maybe this RFV will fail, because I went through all the results for "naked apron" in Google Books and Google Groups and got all the citations I found.
- Then again, if we find some uses of "naked towel" meaning "wearing only a towel", "naked bra" meaning "wearing only a bra", etc., then we may want to delete naked apron and add a new definition at naked meaning "wearing only a certain piece of clothing". --Daniel Carrero (talk) 07:41, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
- Isn’t it a calque of the Japanese 裸エプロン (hadakaepuron), which is quite common? — TAKASUGI Shinji (talk) 16:29, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- RFV passed. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 19:37, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
