Any takers? (presumably English) SemperBlotto 13:36, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Looks like a copyvio. Mglovesfun (talk) 13:56, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
Cited sense 2 of 2. Equinox 15:13, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Well done. SemperBlotto 15:21, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

This should be deleted as a copyvio, I think, from http://www.yourdictionary.com/woolhat, which is from Webster's New World College Dictionary according to the web page. I have no experience with such cases of word-for-word copying of a single definition from a copyrighted source, though. --Dan Polansky 15:33, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
Or even better, rewritten in our own words - shouldn't be too difficult. SemperBlotto 15:38, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
To remove the copyvio, I have rewritten the cited def as "A yokel or redneck" and removed the other one entirely as uncited (owner of a small farm); anyone wanting to re-add it can write their own def and find cites. Equinox 17:23, 14 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
