Poetic protologism? Zero on b.g.c., zero on n.g.c, zero on g.g.c. --Connel MacKenzie 15:22, 29 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Very likely. Much of The Foundation Trilogy is in Middle High Translationese. —RuakhTALK 17:46, 29 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
Yep, seems that way. But some among us would consider Foundation and Empire to be a well-known literary work, so it could still be argued to meet CFI.  ;-) Interestingly, bequivered does seem to pass CFI, but with a completely different meaning ("bearing a quiver of arrows"). -- Visviva 12:12, 30 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
Rfvpassed, appearance in a well-known work. --Connel MacKenzie 19:27, 29 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
