Talk:vela güira

RFV

 * original title was Vela Güira

Looks dubious, especially with its really long definition. — lexicógrafa &#124; háblame — 15:03, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I've found this, but I don't know what sense that supports, if any. Mglovesfun (talk) 18:18, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Google Groups provides some sort of supporting evidence, but it does seem to be invariable - "los vela güira", no hits at all for "velas güiras". I don't think my Spanish is good enough to cite this, then. Mglovesfun ([ [User talk:Mglovesfun|talk]]) 18:25, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * The books hit looks like a verb to me, "velar güira" = "to watch over children". The groups hits look sufficient to pass this- "opportunist" fits, as far as I can tell. I'll add some of the citations to the entry later. Nadando 19:28, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * It has two citations (though both from the same Usenet group); it needs at least one more. - -sche (discuss) 20:27, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Here is another quotation of that series of letters, but I don't speak Spanish well enough to tell if it uses the term in the sense of "opportunist" or not. - -sche (discuss) 04:34, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
 * This is surely using the term in that sense. Cited? or is it a problem that all of the quotations originate from soc.culture.puerto-rico? - -sche (discuss) 04:39, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Meh, struck as allowed. - -sche (discuss) 23:49, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
