Noun #2: flatulence/a fart. Used by WF's family, he claims! Equinox 20:58, 19 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

WF also added a farty sense to windbreaker, blaming their family too. --Daleusher (talk) 23:50, 29 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

I certainly see it, although mostly in non-durably archived text. I added two cites, and there are probably more out there. Kiwima (talk) 00:45, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

cited, but it seems more commonly spelled windbreak, so I have moved the definition there. Kiwima (talk) 21:43, 15 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Not cited. I just removed quotes that were from various blogs and digital-only news sources (i.e. not durably archived). The two quotes that remain are actually for wind break, not windbreak. If a third can be found, that's where this sense ought to go. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 03:58, 28 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
cited. The quotes are not terribly interesting or useful - the better quotes are unfortunately in online magazines which, to my disgruntlement, are considered invalid. I am leaving the sense at windbreak, because although the permanently archived quotes are predominantly "wind break", the non-permanently archived uses I see are predominantly "windbreak". Further, it is messy and confusing to divide up the meanings of a word that has the same set of alternative forms. Kiwima (talk) 21:56, 9 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
