Unkept
This article isn't even really a dictdef: '''Unkept'. Is it a word or not? Most of us would dissect the word to produce the meaning 'not kept'. But the word that should be used for this is 'unkempt'. Though many operate under the assumption that it is real, most dictionaries don't list it. Maybe unkept is one of those words like 'ain't'. It isn't really a legitimate word, but it's so popular that it becomes legitimate over time.'' Pburka 22:58, September 10, 2005 (UTC)

 * Wikipedia is not a dictionary; the place to discuss what should be given as the meaning of unkept is Wiktionary:Talk:unkept; and the place to discuss whether unkept meets the dictionary criteria for being a word is Wiktionary:Wiktionary:Requests for deletion.

 * This isn't useful to Wiktionary as the beginnings of a dictionary article, and Wiktionary already has the beginnings of a dictionary article. Uncle G 12:21:37, 2005-09-11 (UTC)
