Either remove “trumping” from § Terminology or add a source. I have never heard of this usage, it’s not in my OAD (closest is “a trumpet or trumpet blast”), Trumping redirects to a page about playing cards, and there’s an unsanswered post on here that challenged it last year. 67.14.236.50 (talk) 04:04, 21 February 2018 (UTC)

@Anon126: Thanks. Related request at Talk:Trump#Semi-protected edit request on 22 February 2018. —67.14.236.50 (talk) 00:02, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
It's me again. :) I can see why you'd think this might be a joke. Whilst the slang term isn't used in the US, in the British Isles, it is actually the most common (non-vulgar) way to refer to flatulence and therefore most common among children and the middle classes. Every dictionary I own includes extensive entry on this usage over centuries (Collins, Oxford, Chambers, COBUILD). Would you conisder a reference to one of those adequate to demonstrate common usage?

Religion:

The Pythagoreans didn't eat faba beans due to the flatulence they cause according to Cicero:

Plato therefore encourages people to go to sleep with their bodies thus disposed that there be nothing which could introduce any wandering from or disturbance of sleep. From which it is thought that the Pythagoreans prohibited the consumption of beans, because that food causes a great flatulence which is contrary to the tranquility of a mind seeking the truth.

 Not done. It's not clear what change(s) you want to make; please make a precise request. Moreover, the source you're citing is highly non-reliable, being dedicated to numerology. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 01:44, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
