RFV discussion: February–March 2020
Rfv-sense adjective: "Describes a shot with exact, precise pace to leave the balls in the perfect position. Usually just touching a cushion or very close to another ball". I'd like some evidence it's indeed an adjective. Canonicalization (talk) 20:18, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
 * There are a few relevant Google results for e.g. "dead-weight shot" or "dead weight shot", in which I would consider "dead[-]weight" to be adjectival; "deadweight" seems to be a rarer spelling variant in this sense. I think, personally, that there is no problem with "dead[-]weight shot" per se, but probably there is uncertainty about how to spell it. Mihia (talk) 23:37, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

RFV-failed. It may be possible to add an adjective, but it is not attestable in this form. Kiwima (talk) 21:53, 9 March 2020 (UTC)
