We don't allow use of wikis as sources for any language. That's especially true for wikis in dead languages such as Old English.
Old English died out almost a thousand years ago, and the body of text that survives from then is limited in many ways. If no record survives of someone writing about something in Old English a thousand years ago, we have no words in Old English for those things. Wikis have to write about all kinds of things we don't have Old English words for, so they're constantly making things up to fill in the gaps. That makes their version of Old English an artificial language that only looks like Old English.
If you can't find it in one of the dictionaries that are based solely on ancient usage, don't try to add it here. Thanks! Chuck Entz (talk) 03:43, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
This is the discussion page for an anonymous user who has not created an account yet or who does not use it. We therefore have to use the numerical IP address to identify them. Such an IP address can be shared by several users. If you are an anonymous user and feel that irrelevant comments have been directed at you, to avoid future confusion with other anonymous users.
