RFV discussion: July 2011–March 2012[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


In the sense of WikiMedia. Out of context should suffice, no? DAVilla 17:40, 21 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Is it a brand? DCDuring TALK 18:12, 21 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
I would highly doubt such a common word could carry a trademark. DAVilla 06:09, 22 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
Had no citations, so: RFV-failed. - -sche (discuss) 03:19, 2 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

RFD for the specific UK and Canadian senses — the first sense should cover this for all Westminster systems. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 07:25, 19 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

I think senses 1 & 2 can be merged, they are virtually the same. DonnanZ (talk) 09:45, 19 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
Simply merge the three senses. I think only the UK and Canada call the lower House “the [House of] Commons”. Even simpler: define this as “Short for House of Commons”.  --Lambiam 19:43, 19 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
This was resolved by merging the senses last July. - -sche (discuss) 22:07, 16 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
