- Oppose per DTLHS. Per utramque cavernam 21:57, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
- Support - I am sorry, but this is a really bad reason to oppose a nomination. A word is a word. If it passed RFV, clearly we classify it as enough of a word to include here. Not only that, but the word seems interesting enough to me, the entry seems to give a lot of necessary information, and it does not fail any of the above requirements for WOTD/N. Never does it say that because a word is rarely used in print it can't pass a WOTD nomination.
- Now that I saw the RFV discussion I see that this could be considered a pretty iffy situation indeed, and that kind of thing rarely happens, but do we really have proof that those citations used the word because of the Wiktionary entry? That could just merely be a coincidence. It is indeed possible for a word to be used years, decades, or even centuries before it starts appearing in printed publications for the first time. So, while there may not have been durable citations existing in 2008 when the entry was created, I would say it was pretty likely to have existed in speech or non-durable works far before that, especially if it appeared in two other dictionaries at least by 2007, the year before. PseudoSkull (talk) 03:14, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
- @DTLHS, Per utramque cavernam, PseudoSkull: I'll see if there are earlier quotations. Given the large number of nominations on the list at the moment, I think it'll be a while before we have to make a decision on whether to use it as WOTD or not. — SGconlaw (talk) 03:17, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
- Set for 14 May 2020. I could not find any uses (only mentions in dictionaries) between the 15th century and 2010. Even if the Wiktionary helped to revive the word (for which there is no evidence at the moment), the fact is that the word was revived in the 21st century. — SGconlaw (talk) 18:07, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

- On the one hand, per what not to nominate at the top of this page (-> 'offensive' words), featuring an explicitly sexual term may cause more prudish institutions to block the main page, which is definitely something to keep in mind. On the other hand, there's a line to be drawn regarding the degree to which we should cater to prudish petty-bourgeois sensibilities. It's an interesting word, I wouldn't object to its being featured. Including explicit images may come across as a bit too puerile, though. — Mnemosientje (t · c) 16:55, 5 May 2018 (UTC)
