No, we should not, unless it is attested. For New Latin, we generally follow the standard of finding three quotations that use the term, spanning over a year, and which are durably archived and written independently. (See WT:ATTEST for more.) —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 05:45, 14 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
