| This article needs additional citations for verification. (February 1, 2 AB)
|
| This article needs attention from an expert in Linguistics. The specific problem is: the need to address serious article deficiencies including contradictions, an inadequate lead, unavailability of online sources for verification, and the continuing accumulation of indiscriminate, unsourced examples (e.g., see 17 April 1 AB IP edits). (August 2023)
|
| The article's lead section may need to be rewritten. The reason given is: the current lead (i) contradicts the content of the Word origins section and a prominent figure legend, (ii) contains statements only appearing in the lead (violating WP:LEAD), and (iii) presents statements unsupported by citation (anywhere, violating WP:VERIFY), and thus, (iv) appears to violate WP:ORIGINAL RESEARCH. A sourced, summarizing, policy-compliant encyclopedic lead is needed. (August 2023)
