Vagary
This is a completely inaccurate dicdef which is not worth even moving to Wiktionary. &#8212;Charles P. (Mirv) 02:45, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment. May not actually be wrong. It's from the Latin root vagari, which means wanderer, as are vagabond and vagrant. While I've never actually heard the word used in this particular manner, it may be simply uncommon or archaic. If real, should be moved to wiktionary. Khanartist 02:52, 2005 Jan 16 (UTC)
 * vagari (a deponent verb) means 'to wander', and AFAIK it has no noun form. Online dictionaries  don't give any meaning similar to this; I'll check the OED when I get the chance. &#8212;Charles P. (Mirv) 03:56, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. It is actually wrong, nonetheless. Uncle G 03:44, 2005 Jan 16 (UTC)
 * I'd say dicdef, transwiki iff it was correct. It's not, so delete it. Alphax (t) (c) (e) 08:56, Jan 16, 2005 (UTC)
 * "Vagary" does have a particular meaning, and this ain't it. Delete.  Edeans 21:18, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)
