Noun: "Instead as a substitute in the capacity of someone concerning a legal right or claim." Sorry I haven't got a clue. Renard Migrant (talk) 12:38, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
- I edited the first definition. I'd speedy or RfD the one in question. DCDuring TALK 14:00, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
- I have a sneaking suspicion it's the same as the first entry but hard to be sure since I haven't the faintest idea what it means. Renard Migrant (talk) 15:31, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, I don't think it's different from the first sense. (I studied insurance law many years ago.) Delete it. Also, perhaps we can advise the editor to be more careful in adding new entries and modifying existing ones? — SMUconlaw (talk) 16:07, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
- I've speedy-deleted it on the grounds we can't have definitions that a bunch of educated native speakers can't understand. Having comprehensible definitions is the backbone of a dictionary. Renard Migrant (talk) 17:26, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

...some of which use "(Black's Law)" as a context (not formatted), and many of which say "(A Non-Copied Entry)" in the references, which is probably not necessary to note. Check the contributions of 75.69.172.246 and X8BC8x. - -sche (discuss) 19:33, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
- These are mostly fixed (I may have missed some) and the majority of them are at RFV anyway so they can be formatted if kept. Renard Migrant (talk) 15:30, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
- The user has replied to me in private. He/she seems to intend to not edit anymore. Seems inexperienced with wikis as I would normally expect a reply on a talk page to go on the talk page rather than in private message. Renard Migrant (talk) 22:10, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oh, dear. We don't want to scare people off, but we do want them to exercise some care and ask for help if needed. Maybe we can refer the user to some places where he or she can seek advice? — SMUconlaw (talk) 16:35, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
- I don't really want to quote a private message directly (even one with no personal information in it) but I get the impression they hadn't been scared off so much as they feel like these entries would be better handled by someone with Wiktionary experience.
