RFV discussion: November–December 2017

[edit]

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.


Cites anyone? --Robbie SWE (talk) 19:04, 2 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Not for the supplied meaning, but it is clearly used in other contexts. I have added the missing senses, and changed the RFV to RFV-sense. Kiwima (talk) 22:41, 2 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

A Usenet search for "litty" and "party" brought up this hit, although I'm not sure what meaning "litty" is being used in here:

"On 9.21, FSD, we will hold a litty party, the guests invited will talk about Free Software and the audiences can get to know stuff about Free Software and ask questions." Khemehekis (talk) 03:30, 4 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
Typo/thinko for "little party" seems likely. Equinox 17:56, 4 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Why is Usenet, a forum that has not been truly active for decades and is in no way representative of current informal language, so often Wiktionary's 'source of truth' for Internet citations? "Litty", as an intensified-or-something form of lit (adj, sense #4), has been very much alive in recent years, even if Usenet doesn't show it. (Granted, "able to be described as lit" was stupid as a definition, but that's no reason to call the term itself into question) 67.171.52.243 03:26, 20 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
