This is a list of generally multiple-word entries which have meanings that may appear to be sum-of-parts SoP but which have survived a request for deletion RfD specifically because they are identified as idiomatic, or are found in other dictionaries. Note: Please do not add a term to this list unless there was discussion during RfD that concluded in keeping it, initially doubting the necessity of including the term but leading ultimately to the decision that the term should be retained. Where possible the list is partitioned by test, in each case listing under the most applicable test for idiomatic status. Tests are proposed by contributors as a way to rationalize how and why some terms are idiomatic when others are not.

The TF community does not seem to have a specific name for its members; often the generic "TF fan" is used, however this term is also applied to people who have a non-sexual interest in Transformation fiction.

Whatever they leave off should be on the list, as long as it's off the list. This paradox is essentially the same as the one that doomed the Principia. In the title text, Georg Cantor is the inventor of set theory.
