The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process.

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.


excoriation[edit]

The meaning "Stripping of possession; spoliation." seems reasonable, but it is not given in dictionary.com. neither for "excoriation", nor "excoriate" (nor in "excoriate"). If it is a technical, e.g., legal, or otherwise uncommon meaning, then perhaps a reference would be good to have.Altenmann 21:36, 16 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
