RFV discussion
Not seeing it used. Note incidentally that the source listed s.v. References seems to be saying the word is Scots rather than English. &#x200b;—msh210℠ 18:19, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

I tried to change it into Scots, because it's not English but Scots only, but Mglovesfun took it to the ancient version. What can I do? --Rabbie Barns 15:21, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
 * As mentioned on your talkpage, you (RB) should add a new section for the Scots word rather than replace the English section with a Scots one. However in this particular case, I think we can simply replace it and mark this RFV as failed re English, since it's clear that the original editor created it in error as English. I've done that now: replaced the en section with a sco one, and kept the rfv tag re the sco entry. &#x200b;—msh210℠ 16:08, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Incidentally, is that a common Scottish (or other) English use of ancient to mean previous, no longer in place? I've never heard it, and we don't have it s.v. ancient. &#x200b;—msh210℠ 16:10, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

RFV failed, entry deleted. I couldn't find any evidence that this is ever a verb; even the reference only gives it as a noun. (But I couldn't find any noun citations, either.) —Ruakh TALK 15:37, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
