Talk:all-pervading

This is one of many entries in Category:English citations of undefined terms (see Citations:all-pervading) which are trivially attestable but not obviously idiomatic. So: should it be created, or is it just a SOP of the sort that would be RFDed and deleted if it were created? I'm not going to spend time creating the entry if you agree it's SOP, so this is a pre-RFD of sorts. (The aim is to remove it from being "requested" by Category:English citations of undefined terms, either by creating the entry if people think it's idiomatic, or suppressing the categorization / [re]moving the citations if it's not idiomatic.) - -sche (discuss) 19:15, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Oppose the creation. --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 19:53, 19 March 2018 (UTC)- Add, it passes the lemming test. [1] For the ones that don't pass, I prefer suppressing the categorisation.
←₰-→Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 11:00, 20 March 2018 (UTC) - Support Oxford has it, as well as all-pervadingness. DonnanZ (talk) 13:10, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- Support, and I agree with Donnanz regarding all-pervadingness. --SanctMinimalicen (talk) 01:07, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Add all-pervading with the help of lemming heuristic aka lemming principle: in oxforddictionaries.com and Collins. --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:35, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

As above. - -sche (discuss) 19:15, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
- Add, it looks like this passes COALMINE. [2] [3] [4] [5]
←₰-→Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 11:08, 20 March 2018 (UTC) - Conditional support: That's "evermoving", "ever-moving" needs quotes as well. And another one. DonnanZ (talk) 14:19, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Just done ever-shifting, which could well be a synonym of this. DonnanZ (talk) 15:25, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Add per Lingo and thus COALMINE. Here's ever-moving, evermoving at Google Ngram Viewer. --Dan Polansky (talk) 13:13, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

- I would go for ever-varying, which is more common although not the same, and is more or less a synonym of ever-changing. DonnanZ (talk) 13:43, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- Passed: every-varying listed at Wiktionary:Requested entries (English). — SGconlaw (talk) 14:51, 11 December 2018 (UTC)
what about all-pervasive? --Backinstadiums (talk) 10:11, 11 September 2019 (UTC)
