luna
Both English senses. The editor who created this had some other odd ideas. --EncycloPetey 01:38, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
 * The moth is fine. The lunette: sense seems wrong to me. SemperBlotto 07:31, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
 * A confusion with lune? Pingku 11:58, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Incidentally, we seem to be missing a third sense, presumably historical, and likely to be etymologically unrelated, referring to some sort of overseer on Hawaiian plantations. See. —Ruakh TALK 20:52, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Both senses cited. The lunette sense was wrong in that it linked to Lunette, which is for a different sense of ; and of course, the one-word definition "Lunette" is pretty useless given that has so many senses! I've rewritten the def, and added a reference. I also see now that we do have the appropriate sense at [[lunette]]; we should probably modify the definitions to match more closely, and/or to refer to each other, but I don't plan to do that myself: I'd rather leave it to someone with a better understanding of the religions that use it.

RFV passed. —Ruakh TALK 21:31, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

RFV of the Serbo-Croatian section
there is no word luna in serbo/croatian language "moon or month" in SC is mesec or mjesec.many croats come here to create non-existing words (and mark them exclusively as croatian) in order to show how croatian is a separate language and how different from serbian it is.it is part of their anti/serb propaganda I think you should know that.you can check google translate if you don't trust me .24.135.76.120 06:59, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

An IP unilaterally removed the Serbo-Croatian section as "nonexisting/biased"; listing it here seems more appropriate. - -sche (discuss) 02:04, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Hmm biased? Mglovesfun (talk) 08:32, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
 * The IP alleges that the creator of the Serbo-Croatian section is pushing a "Croatian is not Serbo-Croatian" POV by making up uniquely Croatian replacements for pan-SC terms. - -sche (discuss) 08:52, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Following that, an IP removed the whole section (again?) calling it "Croatian propaganda." Seeing the RFV, I reverted that edit but didn't block them. Later the same IP apparently changed its mind and accepted the section's existence but changed the sense "Croatia" to "rare, regional." --Haplology (talk) 15:26, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
 * It sounds a bit archaic and poetic nowadays but even Njegoš used it in his famous Gorski vijenac: "Luna i krst, dva strašna simvola - njihovo je na grobnice carstvo. quote taken from bs:wikiquote:Gorski Vijenac" Also, since IP accepted this sh entry, is there any point for continuing rfv? Is anyone else challenging it, I mean would such requests fv eventually subside into oblivion and entries continue existing if the original challengers challenge them no more? That is, if I hadn't voiced my opinion would the entry survive? --biblbroksдискашн 19:48, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Aha, thanks for the info! I was trying to cite the term, but the first several hits I worked through turned out to be Latin embedded in SC, like this:
 * 1904, Pero Budmani, Rječnik hrvatskoga ili srpskoga jezika, volume 6, page 796, entry "Mjesec":
 * Sunce seda pred veče . . . . mesec seda u zoru. c) mjesec u svesi s pridjevina, kojima se naznačuje ńegova veća ili mańa punina ili praznina. U rječnika Mikaļnu (s.v. mijena ima novi misec, novilunium, nova luna), u
 * If it's used in that work of literature (Gorski Vijenac), I'll remove the RFV. Use whatever context tags you deem appropriate. - -sche (discuss) 21:48, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
