Inclusion of "dollarydoos"
The last time anyone has mentioned this on the talk page was in 2015, 8 years ago, so I think it's worth me asking again: should "dollarydoo" be mentioned as a colloquial, jocular term for the Australian dollar in this article? I know it might seem like a jokey suggestion just for the hell of it, but I think that it could have some genuine encyclopedic merit. Most of the reliable sources I can find talking about the actual use of the term are articles covering a clearly facetious change.org petition to change the official name, but if the quotations section on the current Wiktionary entry for "dollarydoo" is any indication, there is genuine colloquial usage of the term in Australian sources. Does anyone have any particular stance on its inclusion? Ithinkiplaygames (talk) 18:12, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
- Hmmm. I don't think so. Five examples over nearly twenty years doesn't indicate frequent use to me. Sadly, buck is probably more common. (Both buck and dollarydoo are American inventions. That pushes me away too.) HiLo48 (talk) 02:27, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
