Hi. I understand your nomination was good faith. WT:CFI sets out of a couple of key principles. In this case, 'attested' means "use in permanently recorded media, conveying meaning, in at least three independent instances spanning at least a year". It doesn't have to be 'notable' media because human language isn't only used by professional authors, journalists and whatnot. However things like facebook and YouTube aren't considered permanent because posts/videos are permanently recorded. I hope this helps. Renard Migrant (talk) 15:12, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks. My intuition here was that this hadn't really cross the threshold, and especially when the intention is to be derogatory, there has to be some momentum to a word. Some assholes can't just invent a new word, like "Wikishits", use it on a handful of forums, and get it into Wiktionary. I'm not sure where the abundance of usage is that you cite. That said, I am a Wikitionary outsider. I noticed that someone (maybe you) edited Jewsreal to be purely defamatory, and not comedic, which at least is more accurate.
