Growed Definition

In my opinion it is better to have this page in wiktionary and not in Wikipedia. Magioladitis (talk) 13:08, 13 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete. Leaving aside the obvious problem that this is avowedly a dictionary definition, it also appears to be original research of a somewhat dubious nature. The Oxford English Dictionary, for example, has historical examples of growed in its entry for grow alongside the standard past tense grew, but no suggestion that growed and grew are different words.

 * Delete. Claims that one article or another are a dictionary definition are often overused.  In this case, though, it's literally true.  That aside, I'm also fairly certain its fundamental (and uncited) claims are complete bollocks. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 17:00, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
