I only have data going back to October 2005. My data is mostly, but not entirely complete, and some of the dates might be a little off.
With that said, here is a list of words that were added to the dictionary since October 2005 that have since been removed (some were simply replaced with correctly spelled words):

Then there are words that were removed once from the dictionary and later added back in:
Code:
Word Removed Added Days NOT in Dictionary
. 03/31/2007 04/06/2007 6
gg 05/24/2006 06/03/2006 10

baby 11/16/2005 08/03/2007 625
Next we have words that were added to the dictionary, then removed, then added again:
Code:
Word Added Removed Added

And finally there are words that were removed from the dictionary, then added, then removed again:
Code:
