Talk:low-priced

RFD discussion: March–July 2018
Seems completely SOP to me. --WikiTiki89 20:52, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per Talk:short-legged, but this is possibly coalminable... Sigh. --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 20:57, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. Forget about coal mines, it passes the lemming test. DonnanZ (talk) 00:43, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete of course. You can be high-priced, average-priced, reasonable-priced... We have to credit our users with some basic degree of intelligence, even if we don't have it ourselves. Equinox ◑ 02:39, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep. The hyphen makes it a single word, not a phrase. And we keep all single words no matter how SOPpy they are. —Mahāgaja (formerly Angr) · talk 10:26, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Fortunately there's no entry for lowpriced. DonnanZ (talk) 10:37, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Hmph, there is now. That'll teach me.DonnanZ (talk) 12:24, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep per COALMINE. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk)  11:51, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Also per the lemming heuristic. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk)  11:43, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * You have to justify this: lowpriced without a hyphen is not (AFAIK) standard English. Are we gonna find three stupid cites by foreigners? Fuck coalmine. Equinox ◑ 15:53, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Oops, spoke too soon, someone already found three non-standard shitty cites by foreigners. Equinox ◑ 15:54, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * My fault, I should have kept my big gob shut, you can always RFD it. DonnanZ (talk) 19:31, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * " by foreigners." Incorrect, two of the three Usenet cites are from English-speaking countries. "Macdiarmid" even seems to have been a far-right xenophobe. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk)  11:43, 17 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete. DTLHS (talk) 19:19, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep using the lemming heuristic (also lemming test): is in Collins. The WT:COALMINE argument is weakened by the dubious quality of the attesting quotations at lowpriced; they are all from Usenet, which is not copyedited, and one of the quotations contains the lowercase "canada". --Dan Polansky (talk) 19:28, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I have added three published citations, if that addresses your concerns about COALMINE. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk)  11:43, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Weak keep per Dan Polansky. John Cross (talk) 20:23, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - Sonofcawdrey (talk) 01:55, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I consider hyphenated terms to be single words, so keep. This probably also passes under COALMINE. Ƿidsiþ 09:23, 17 March 2018 (UTC)


 * It seems very SOPpy, but keep because it does seem to be regarded as a single word often enough to be found both in unhyphenated form in books (thus passing the WT:COALMINE test) and in other dictionaries (passing the WT:LEMMING test) . - -sche (discuss) 18:44, 17 March 2018 (UTC) Switching to abstain because of the very low quality of the citations of the unhyphenated version. - -sche (discuss) 18:27, 16 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete as regular formation from "low-" with self-evident meaning. low-energy, low-quality, low-carbon, low-wage, low-income, low-rated, low-mounted, low-valued ... the list is virtually endless. Mihia (talk) 23:19, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. Nicole Sharp (talk) 01:27, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

No consensus to delete. bd2412 T 14:27, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
