Talk:dog wheelchair

RFD discussion: March–April 2020
Somebody told me that this is sum‐of‐parts, so I’m putting it here. —(((Romanophile))) ♞ (contributions) 21:19, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Whether it's SoP or not, it needs sources, so RFV treatment may be necessary. DonnanZ (talk) 08:09, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Really? Couldn’t and shouldn’t we delete an entry aquamarine furbelow (defined as a furbelow having an aquamarine colour) as being a pure sum‐of‐parts without searching for attestations? (It reminds me of the joke from Lubitsch’s Ninotchka.) --Lambiam 10:34, 30 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Although it is obvious how the sense got extended to contraptions for locomotionally challenged pets, none of the definitions given for  properly fits this extended use. What about adding a third sense at  with a “” label (and then deleting this specific instance as SOP)? Note that there are also cat wheelchairs and even a tortoise wheelchair.  --Lambiam 10:49, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
 * That’s why I made the entry, since a ‘dog wheelchair’ is not a chair at all; it’s more like a set of training wheels, and ‘wheelchair’ does not (at the time of this writing) have any definition corresponding to that. I had never heard of it applied to other animals either until today. —(((Romanophile))) ♞ (contributions) 19:21, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree. It seems from Google results that this sense extends to animals generally, in which case we should add it at wheelchair and delete this specific instance. Mihia (talk) 01:34, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. - TheDaveRoss  12:14, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Animal meaning added, so now Delete. --Lambiam 12:05, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't understand, where was it added? PUC – 16:25, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Oopsadaisy, I must have forgotten to click “Publish changes”. Darn. I added the most beautiful, one might say perfect, definition at . I’m afraid I didn’t save a copy of this well-crafted gem elsewhere either. If I find the time I’ll try again, but I fear I may not reach quite the same lexicographic acme as before. --Lambiam
 * Now it’s really there as promised – ✅signed, sealed, and delivered. --Lambiam 09:49, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm glad you kept the image, that was the best part. – Jberkel 23:31, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
