Verification debate[edit]
The following discussion has been moved from Wiktionary:Requests for verification.

(inspired by a thread above) I think schtum is non-comparable adjective so the forms "more schtum" and "most schtum" are non-standard at best. Is it possible to remove them, or request verification for them? Incidentally, I thought single-syllable adjectives formed their comparatives with -er and -est, so they should be "schtummer" and "schtummest" if anything. Fugyoo 22:14, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
- It would be unusual to try and cite something which we don't have (that is, more schtum, most schtum). I'd be tempted just to add - to the
{{en-adj}}template and be done with it. Mglovesfun (talk) 04:31, 1 September 2011 (UTC)- Oh, the comparative forms were there by default. Thanks, I've done as you suggested, I think this can be wrapped up if there are no objections. Fugyoo 13:50, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
Striking, no objections. Mglovesfun (talk) 09:38, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
