The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process (permalink).

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.


This seems to be a sum of parts. It would be protected by WT:COALMINE if "oft mentioned" were significantly more common than oftmentioned, but it is approximately similarly common per oft mentioned, oftmentioned at the Google Books Ngram Viewer., and therefore, does not seem protected by WT:COALMINE.

By contrast, oft-mentioned with hyphen is protected by WT:COALMINE since it is significantly more common per oft-mentioned, oftmentioned at the Google Books Ngram Viewer.. --Dan Polansky (talk) 17:08, 28 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
