Needs to be split into lowercase, uppercase, mixed case. --Pious Eterino (talk) 10:06, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
- Not controversial, IMHO. Just add the missing entries. You could then RfD the extra definitions at [[gox]], just to be careful. DCDuring (talk) 21:09, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

To mean Gluconobacter oxydans Pious Eterino (talk) 09:12, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Pious Eterino Are you claiming this doesn't exist? If so, the discussion belongs at WT:RFVE. This, that and the other (talk) 11:38, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per both above. GOX at WP has several meanings but not this one; found no hits on Google search – glucose oxidase (GOx) appears to be most common. Facts707 (talk) 11:53, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
- Delete for the above reasons. I also agree that this should technically be an RFV though (which would no doubt lead to deletion anyway upon the failure of the verification process) Overlordnat1 (talk) 20:50, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
Moved to RFV (Wiktionary:Requests_for_verification/English#gox). Clearly inclusion-worthy if it exists, hence outside the scope of RFD. — Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 20:34, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
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.
With the meaning "The alfaproteobacterid organism Gluconobacter oxydans.". Moved over from Wiktionary:Requests_for_deletion/English#gox. Tagged by User:Pious Eterino here. — Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 20:34, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- It seems to have been used attributively in gox 1122 and gox 0499, referring to genes of the organism, in perhaps two articles. GOx can also refer to glucose oxidase, which unfortunately occurs in many articles that also refer to G. oxydans. GOX might be in attributive use in those articles with either meaning. My biochemistry is nowhere close to good enough to tell which.
- GOX and GOx can also refer to "gaseous oxygen", as used in rocket engines. DCDuring (talk) 22:24, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
