The print Guardian this morning has the verb in a letter ("Those who've
been WikiLeaked may not exactly confirm the latter") and the corresponding
adjective has been used several times in online reports, though I haven't
yet seen it in the print edition ("Akhbar newspaper has an Arab world
exclusive by getting its hands on a sizeable selection of Wikileaked state
department cables from across the region"--3 Dec)
