Rfv-sense - the noun. Leasnam (talk) 22:32, 30 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

It seems like a straightforward nominalization of the adjective sense. DTLHS (talk) 23:04, 30 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
yes, my impression is that if a nominalization is indistinguishable from a noun and it meets CFI, then it will be listed as a noun. or at least that seems to be how we've done things here before, in absence of any specific written policy i could find. --Habst (talk) 03:08, 31 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
It would be nice to find a countable plural, e.g. (the) unfuckupables... Leasnam (talk) 03:41, 31 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
Two nouns uses are on Google Groups https://groups.google.com/forum/#!search/%22the$20unfuckupable%22 ... so that's a pass. - Sonofcawdrey (talk) 20:35, 31 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
This type of "noun" usage is like broken-hearted, as in "I will have compassion on the broken-hearted" (i.e. broken-hearted one(s)), but we don't have a noun at broken-hearted. Should we ? Or is this just an instance of adj + (one[s]) i.e. the unfuckupable (one[s]) ?
I added a countable plural ("unfuckupables"), which should help, even though its not durably archived. Kiwima (talk) 21:57, 31 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
