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.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


"A basketball player who cheats by stealing points from the other team." How does one "steal" a point? Is this form of cheating specific to basketball, if it exists at all? Note the IP created some other dubious stuff promoting basketball teams etc. Equinox 02:17, 27 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

RFV-failed The original entry had a citation that was for "point-stealing", not point-stealer. I could find a number of citations for "point-stealer", but they do not seem to reflect a single definition, and most seem pretty NISOP. No meaning had enough citations to be verified, but I put what I could find on the citations page. Kiwima (talk) 10:13, 1 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
