RFV discussion: April 2017[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.


Ety 2: "A group of individuals involved in the creation or formation of books." Two citations are given, but one is two words ("book staffs") and the other is evidently a typo for bookstalls ("browsing long and happily at bookstaffs with a wide range of new English publications": you can't browse at a member of staff).

I can find several instances of "book staff" (with a space) as a header to a list of people involved in the production of a book, but none for "bookstaff" (one word). I did find another meaning of bookstaff, something with a handle, and I have added two quotes to the citations page, but have no real idea what it means. Kiwima (talk) 20:22, 29 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
