The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.

shady, disreputable, dishonest. Penumbrous means shady in the literal sense, but in the figurative one? Equinox 18:51, 11 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

I can find a figurative sense, but it is closer to ill-defined than to disreputable. (I have added this with supporting quotes). For the disreputable sense, I can find two quotes:
  • Lua error in Module:quote at line 2959: Parameter 1 is required.
  • Lua error in Module:quote at line 2959: Parameter 1 is required.
And of those, the second is a bit iffy. Kiwima (talk) 20:40, 11 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
