Rfv-sense: In a scarce manner. Other senses now split out. DCDuring TALK 23:13, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Sense doesn't seem to make much grammatical sense. I think the other three definitions for this word cover the entry quite well, and therefore, I believe we should delete the sense. Razorflame 23:15, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I can't see what it would mean that isn't covered by the other senses. Equinox ◑ 06:25, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
