What’s the current policy on terms like this automobile sense now? †  ﴾(u):Raifʻhār (t):Doremítzwr﴿ 19:32, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Find three citations by different authors spanning three years showing use of the word in the abstract (e.i., not indicating in text that it is an automobile), which indicates that people hear the word and think of the car, without being told it's a car. bd2412 T 04:21, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

RFV failed, sense removed. —Ruakh TALK 16:05, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
