I ask for attestation per WT:ATTEST, since I can't find enough attesting quotations. Consider placing them at Citations:Usonan, since at least one can probably be found. google books:"Usonan", google groups:"Usonan", Usonan”, in OneLook Dictionary Search.. --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:04, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

After going through all seven pages of Google Books results, I've found lots of Esperanto hits for usonan, a few mentions, and lots of scannos for "us on an", but only one definite hit [1] as well as one that is a possible hit, but not clearly legible [2]. —Mr. Granger (talkcontribs) 14:31, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I guess it's an early variant of Usonian that didn't catch on. See the usage notes at Usona. I would think simply being derived from Usona, which is well-attested, would be enough to keep it here, since it's the natural adjective form. Soap (talk) 14:48, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
