I read this comic while taking Calculus. I thought DNE stood for Does Not Exist (as in a limit). I've actually never seen it used as Do Not Erase. Of course, this does not make sense in this context. Thank you, Explainxkcd. 108.162.219.202 02:15, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

We have the same in Danish: MIS: Må Ikke Slettes = may not be errased, when translating directley. Mis by the way means pussy(cat) in Danish. Kynde (talk) 21:24, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

Such circles were always labeled "SAVE" where I went to school. But I think "DNE" would've been understood too. --Aaron of Mpls (talk) 05:43, 12 April 2015 (UTC)

I'm from the east coast of the US and we had DNE. Anyone care to give input as to other locations' uses? 108.162.216.124 21:24, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
