marine toilet

Err, SOP, right? Skisckis (talk) 08:17, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

• No idea. Do they use seawater? Do they have retention tanks or not? DonnanZ (talk) 11:25, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

Devil's advocate: "marine" means sea-related. Not all boats go to sea. Equinox ◑ 17:12, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, but when they don’t then one is less likely to use toilets on the boats but more likely to use a better toilet in a land building. Just a natural likelihood distribution, hence the name. Does not reach the threshold of idiomaticity. Delete. Fay Freak (talk) 11:36, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

I'm going to reopen this and say, based on the current definition (and even on the corresponding WP article), my !vote is delete. I am sceptical that "marine toilet" could be attested in reference to the toilets of purely freshwater-going vessels any more often than "marine" in general and in other phrases could be attested in reference to such vessels. - -sche (discuss) 19:43, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
