square rod

sense: (hardware) a solid, elongated bar whose shape is a square prism.

Does anyone really want to call this an idiom? DCDuring TALK 00:31, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Not I. Nor the other sense ("unit of area... Equal in size to a square with sides 1 rod in length"). Delete the lot. (But the unit-of-area sense is not nominated, so that's out of order.)​—msh210℠ (talk) 16:40, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

You could tag that sense as well, perhaps after this debate if only to avoid confusion. But yeah strong delete for this definition. --Mglovesfun (talk) 16:00, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

But we have square mile, foot, inch, kilometer, metre, centimetre. DAVilla 15:20, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

I'm not actively searching out all such possible mistakes, just those I stumble across for other reasons. We have worse problems than too many non-idiomatic entries. DCDuring TALK 16:54, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
