Citable?

@Angr, is this word actually citable, or is it Neo-Gaulish (in which case we should delete it)? —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 16:56, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

I don't know. I don't really have any Gaulish materials. It isn't in Matasovic's dictionary, but that dictionary doesn't usually list derived forms anyway, just the most basic roots (and the Gaulish name Siros from *sīros (“long”) is listed). It also isn't listed in GPC's entry for hiraeth, but that doesn't prove anything. I guess we should take it to RFV since Bli med doesn't seem to be around anymore. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 17:50, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.

siraxta

RFV per Talk:siraxta, where I express doubt that this word isn't merely Neo-Gaulish, and Angr cites sources which lack it. If it fails, the link at hiraeth should be removed as well. —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 18:11, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Full disclosure: the sources I mentioned are not ones that I would necessarily expect to cite this form if it exists, so the argument from their silence is very weak. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 10:42, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Failed. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 14:02, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
