That definition does not describe 'sidelong' at all. Backinstadiums (talk) 21:06, 15 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

The etymology at sidelong does not say that it comes from -long originally. Equinox 21:09, 15 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Equinox: In lexicological terms, from a synchronic (not diachronic/etymological) point of view, analysing it as -long is correct. https://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=-ling&action=edit&section=10
