German: “ girl”. Tagged by 2003:DE:3720:3780:D8DA:FD3B:20F3:E3CD on 29 August, not listed: “(entry gives "female Störchin", and a girl is always female.)” J3133 (talk) 11:51, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't even know where to start researching Namibian German. I briefly checked a German-language newspaper but they only mentioned the animal (+ semi-paywalled). – Jberkel 21:33, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
 * a) Mentionings can be found in dictionaries, like:
 * Joe Putz, Das große Dickschenärie, 2001.
 * Ulrich Ammon, Hans Bickel und Alexandra Nicole Lenz (eds.), Variantenwörterbuch des Deutschen, 2nd ed., 2016
 * But for German (de) as WDL that's not good enough.
 * (Maybe Südwesterdeutsch, also Südwester Deutsch, should be a separate language so that it would be enough? Else possibly most terms in Category:Namibian German would fail an RFV?)
 * b) It somewhat also relates to a more general issue with "female ..." in the head of some entries: When a masculine term also refers to things or animal breeds, the "female ..." part makes no sense, is incorrect, confusing (is it ?). Here the question arises if it is , , or ?
