Talk:pavanı

RFV discussion: May–July 2020
I don't speak Turkish, but the definition, plus the very un-Turkish user name that created the entry made me suspicious:


 * 1) (poetic, perennial) the flanful of May

This definition makes absolutely no sense, especially since the word "flanful" doesn't seem to exist. The total lack of Turkish-language hits on Google Books doesn't help- though I don't know how to check for inflected/affixed forms.

This smells like a hoax. Chuck Entz (talk) 03:51, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
 * It most likely is. This is presumably the same editor that has been creating throwaway accounts to create hoax or at the very least unattestable entries (with only one ever created with each account), although up to this point all of those entries have been French words, so I suppose they are branching out. &mdash; surjection &lang;??&rang; 17:36, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Actually, this isn't their first Turkish entry (they've also dabbled in Chinese and Japanese). Whenever you see a continuing pattern like this, clue me in. It's exactly the kind of thing the checkuser tool is intended for. Chuck Entz (talk) 20:45, 31 May 2020 (UTC)


 * No such flanful word in the authoritative dictionary.  --Lambiam 19:37, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
