This is from one of Aesop's fables.

There are plenty of books containing the phrase but most of them seem to be use+mention. What is the policy wrt CFI where a word/expression is used in a significant number of places (over 1000 in this case) but generally includes an explanation?

I believe that I've found 3 legitimate use references that are now included, but I wonder if the phrase shouldn't be "the camel's nose in the tent". House 16:46, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
