Terminology
What is the difference between obsolete, dated, and archaic?Kevlar67 18:38, 9 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Originally on Wiktionary, those meant >50 years of disuse, a "couple" years of disuse and 25 years of disuse, respectively. Later, it meant >100 years, >5 years and >50 years.  There was some discussion for revising them that never gained general consensus, IIRC.  If a term is listed as obsolete in any other major dictionaries, it is safe to list it as obsolete, here.  --Connel MacKenzie 19:03, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Please add other language subcats
Can we please add the subcats for other languages, such as Category:es:Obsolete, etc.? They should appear at this category page as subcats, but don't. 71.66.97.228 04:51, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
