I doubt this exists - I can find on Google an exact replica of this page, in Webster's dictionary. But which came first? Jackclubs (talk) 18:26, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 12:15, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

but move first to Wikitionary where it belongs, so tagged. The term does exist as shown here [1]. Thanks. ShoesssS Talk 12:30, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply] - Comment. That damn Webster's dictionary (Webster’s Quotations, Facts and Phrases) is more trouble than it's worth. Notice that the definition ends with "(WP)", which means that it's a direct copy of the Wikipedia article. Fooled me the first time I tried to cite it as an independent source, too.

- Delete. No non-WP-based hits on Google Web, Books, or Scholar; unless someone can come up with a valid paper source, this fails WP:V. The word has already been deleted recently on Wiktionary, so I don't think transwikiing is the way to go here. Deor (talk) 13:52, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per nom. No evidence that the term exists. And it wouldn't work in practice, in any case - the glass part of the roof would have to be moved up and down throughout the year, unless the building was on the equator. Tevildo (talk) 20:32, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. It's not in the two Dover architectural dictionaries I have (Sturgis, Harris). —Tamfang (talk) 16:15, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
