Latin. Sum of parts, even if given a proper definition. This, that and the other (talk) 09:05, 19 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Keep, it’s a phrase and motto, not an {{&lit}} def. ·~ dictátor·mundꟾ 19:34, 20 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
Being a motto doesn't make a phrase entry-worthy. We don't have an entry because you're worth it defined as "Advertising slogan of L'Oréal". Plus, what would the definition even be? "Personal motto of Charles V (1500–1558)" is an encyclopedic detail rather than a definition. This, that and the other (talk) 03:33, 21 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
Keep. It's a rally to go “beyond”, to go explore beyond the known borders (“where no man has gone before” :) If this gets deleted, why would non plus ultra be kept?. – Jberkel 08:15, 26 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
Delete It is sum of parts. It should be treated as English, maybe? Like other mottos (see: e pluribus unum). non plus ultra is not a motto. Sartma (talk) 10:13, 26 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
