Min
Rfv-sense "abbreviation of Fujian province". Quite possible, as it would be the transliteration of the Mandarin sans tones, but I'm not sure it actually exists in durably archived media. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 03:58, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * A rough Google Books search is sufficient to verify this: . 129.78.32.21 04:16, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * One of the links I can't view, two of them fail the (must be uses, not mentions), and one of them is good. So we still need two more. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 04:28, 16 January 2013 (UTC)


 * below. 129.78.32.21 04:52, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * They both appear to be using a different sense from this. The first one is referring to the language, the second one to the people. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 05:10, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * You don't even seem interested in finding some quotations yourself. If you are only using this as a way of nitpicking anon edits, using your own far-fetched version of the attestation criteria, then I can gladly revert my change and I'd like to rfv-sense all senses in Min. 129.78.32.21 05:25, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I probably will, I just feel like working with a different language right now. It's not my "own far-fetched version", honestly, it is our standard procedure. I think that you realize yourself that RFVing every sense is being a troll... but since you've done that, I guess we'll cite 'em. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 05:41, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I'd tend to say the 2nd, 3rd and 4th links are not mentions. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:21, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Cited. I also removed “abbreviation” from the definition. How would Fujian abbreviate into Min? They’re different words with different origins. — Ungoliant (Falai) 05:35, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
