RFV discussion: July 2020

 * Also дранцьва, supposedly "electric ray". Benwing2 (talk) 05:18, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
 * "зарапла́вец" is at least formed correctly from known components, which is common in Slavic languages. "зара́" is "star" (normally "зо́рка") and "пла́вец" is "farer", as in "seafarer" = "марапла́вец" (cf Russian "морепла́ватель") and "зарапла́вец" is an equivalent of the Russian "звездопла́ватель"
 * When I rfv-ed "зарапла́вец", I thought it may be unfortunate that Belarusian Internet penetration is rather low, so even some valid, correctly formed words may be discarded as non-existent. As for "дранцьва", I have no idea what it is. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 05:47, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I decided to withdraw the RFV. I have redefined it as [[spacefarer]], the term primarily used in sci-fi. I hope it's OK. I have trouble finding usage but the components are valid. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 10:42, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
