Nash's Pot-lucke

Where does it say that pot-lucke means "food provided for an unexpected or uninvited guest, the luck of the pot"? There is one reference but it's not there. LucasW (talk) 21:19, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

@LucasW Agreed. He uses it in the context of wine, as he does in his play "Summer's Last Will and Testament". He doesn't use it in the context of food in either source. Instead it seems to mean the last bit of wine left in a vessel. 174.197.133.149 (talk) 04:58, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

Legal Consequences?

The legal consequences section of this article has nothing to do with potluck dinners. Is it AI garbage? Dog-519 (talk) 11:22, 19 September 2025 (UTC)

Someone removed it, describing it as "vandalism". Yes, it should have been removed without a clearer explanation as to how it pertains to an actual potluck, but there's no reason to consider it vandalism. As a courtesy I notified the editor who added the content. Sundayclose (talk) 18:29, 19 September 2025 (UTC)

It's very hoax adjacent, with this this article about a humourous Tik Tok account being presented as historical fact.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:25, 19 September 2025 (UTC)
