The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.

OED records whybeler from Middle English only, as well as whiblers and whibble (for quibble) in the 1600s. It's worth noting that OED supports our etymology at quibble, even though it doesn't account for this wh- variant. This, that and the other (talk) 11:35, 5 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
