Upsaroka

[edit]

This spelling was imported from the 1913 websters and a google search shows nothing under this spelling. Absaroka seems to be the correct spelling. Speednat (talk) 07:56, 13 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

First of all, when you say "a google search shows...", that's a strong hint that this belongs at rfv, since the question seems to be not that there's something inherently wrong with it, such as being sum-of-parts or a brand name, but that it's not used. To save that step, though, I should mention that there are more than enough examples in Google books, including one in a work of Edgar Allen Poe. None of those seem to be less than a century old, so it should be marked obsolete or archaic and converted to an "alternative spelling of" entry. Chuck Entz (talk) 15:33, 13 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
I agree with everything Chuck just said. —Angr 17:56, 13 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the weigh-in. I will fix it if it hasn't already been alt form'ed. Speednat (talk) 20:11, 13 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
Keep, now those changes have been made (thank you, Speednat). — This unsigned comment was added by 129.125.102.126 (talk) at 20:51, 17 October 2012 (UTC).Reply
