Attributive form? --Type56op9 (talk) 15:26, 5 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Cited as a general-purpose alternative form. (spelling noun+noun compounds with hyphens is not unusual.) - -sche (discuss) 16:07, 5 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
This was entered as an adjective. The quotes are for noun > I changed the POS to noun. --Hekaheka (talk) 23:25, 5 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. I hadn't noticed that the header was incorrect. (Even if this were attested a an attributive form, the header should till have been Noun, so I just assumed it was. Inattentional blindness.) - -sche (discuss) 00:03, 6 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
Do we have any kind of template and/or category for noun attributive forms? If it weren't for the possibility that many of these are unattested, this seems like it might be more of a matter for rfc. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:10, 6 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
These entries use Template:attributive form of. It doesn't categorize. User:-sche/attributive is a list of pages which transclude that template and contain a hyphen. - -sche (discuss) 02:20, 6 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
This is a dvandva compound, different in kind from the ones that have a modifier-noun structure. DCDuring TALK 12:49, 8 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
