Architecture meaning. Previously discussed, with consensus to move to rfv? --Connel MacKenzie 19:02, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I was surprised to see this listed here as I have often seen it used as a verb. But looking for 'cites' it seems to have a bit of a UK bias. Two recent quotes.

  • Fury at plan to site homeless hostel near top Capital school. Scotsman newspaper. (15Dec06)
  • The U.K. government is dusting off an alternative plan to site the center at a military outfit such as Porton Down. (A US website but quoting a Cambridge article)

--Dmol 18:07, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Finally, months after first discussing it with Connel, I have finished citing all noun and verb senses to RFV standard, including a use as "website" antedating OED2+'s first cite for that usage by 8 years. --Enginear 22:26, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
