@Aabull2016 Do you know what it was about this entry you thought needed to be cleaned up when you tagged it in 2016? I'm wondering if I can just remove the tag. Thanks, — excarnateSojourner (talk · contrib) 03:09, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

Of course I have no recollection :D

However, from what I can see, this is a grammatical form (plural of a noun) that links to an adjective, not a noun, so it does appear to be an entry that requires deleting. Aabull2016 (talk) 19:44, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

• I see. Thank you. — excarnateSojourner (talk · contrib) 03:08, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

bed-fasts

Listed as a plural of an adjective, lol. Pointed out by Aabull2016. The adjective was originally listed as a noun when it was created by Aabull. — excarnateSojourner (talk · contrib) 03:18, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

There seems to be a noun sense of bedfast that we don't have since searching for "bedfasts" on Google Books turns up a lot of stuff about manufacturing them. Not sure if it also takes the hyphenated form, hard to search for that specifically. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 16:12, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

@Al-Muqanna: See Citations:bedfast. 98.170.164.88 08:43, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

That's useful, thanks. I found this website with a definition of the hardware piece that seems to match that on other places ([1], [2]) so I've added it as a noun sense, and since your citations attest it as hyphenated this should be kept. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 12:43, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

• Kept as noun form. Ultimateria (talk) 19:21, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
