Bogfly[edit]
Is this hoax? "Bogfly" googles to 130 hits [1], none seems to refer to a "bog" insect. My vote is Delete this nonsense unless a biologist states this is not a joke. vlad_mv 04:09, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Delete at present. Almost certainly a hoax. If it turns out to be genuine slang, then transwiki to Wiktionary. -- Brhaspati (talkcontribs) 07:33, 2005 Mar 20 (UTC)
- It's an attempt to coin a slang term. Wiktionary won't want it, because it is not attested as a word. Even its occurrence as a mis-spelling of botfly is uncommon. Delete. Uncle G 17:10, 2005 Mar 20 (UTC)
