I think this is translingual and hence needs redoing entirely. I don't think Modern English has been around long enough to influence Latin, has it? Mglovesfun (talk) 21:13, 10 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

It's not Translingual; it's Latin. This word is not used on its own in any language but Latin. Where it appears in Translingual contexts, it is only as a component of a proper name. So, in the same way that Faso is not Translingual by virtue of being part of Burkina Faso, so benthamianus is not Translingual. Latin is still in existence, and is still being used. --EncycloPetey 22:21, 10 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
To put it another way, would it be attestable per CFI in Latin? Mglovesfun (talk) 11:45, 11 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
Striking as whatever it is, it's not a cleanup issue. Mglovesfun (talk) 19:05, 11 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
