outsider (plural outsiders)

1. One who is not part of a community or organization.

   While the initiated easily understand the symbols, they are wholly inaccessible to outsiders.

   • 2004, Carlin, George, “Preface”, in When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?‎, New York: Hyperion Books, →ISBN, OCLC 757869006, OL 24604921M, page :

     I'm an outsider by choice, but not truly. It's the unpleasantness of the system that keeps me out. I'd rather be in, in a good system. That's where my discontent comes from: being forced to choose to stay outside.

2. A newcomer with little or no experience in an organization or community.

   Seeing the mess professional politicians have made of things is it any wonder the electorate is beginning to prefer outsiders.

   • 2017, BioWare, Mass Effect: Andromeda (Science Fiction), Redwood City: Electronic Arts, OCLC 1261299044, PC, scene: Legacy:

     These worlds have always belonged to us, from the moment our ancestors saw them through ancient telescopes. We claimed them when our first explorers reached the stars, and they remained our worlds even after the Scourge divided us in darkness. Outsiders have no right to these treasures, and true angara must stand ready to defend our birthright.

3. A competitor or contestant who has little chance of winning; a long shot
