¶ Are the current citations acceptable? --Pilcrow 16:13, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps it means "cemetaries" rather than being a plural of cemetary. --Mglovesfun (talk) 20:30, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, this is best described as the plural form of cœmeterium, with that singular form described as a now-obsolete Latinate form of cemetary. (BTW, cœmetery exists, too.) — Raifʻhār Doremítzwr ~ (U · T · C) ~ 23:02, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I looked into this and created (deprecated template usage) cœmeterium. I've redefined (deprecated template usage) cœmeteria and taken the liberty of removing the {{rfv}}, since I consider the new sense to be plentifully attested. I'll strike the header. — Raifʻhār Doremítzwr ~ (U · T · C) ~ 12:40, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
