- Well, I'd say surely yes, because through Google there are plenty of web and Google Books results. 50 Xylophone Players talk 13:53, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
- Not ONLY, from Dictionary.com: -shone or shined. Malafaya 13:58, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
- Based on COCA (US contemporary usage) "outshone" outshines "outshined" by 4:1, but there were 17 uses in that corpus of 385MM words, not negligible. I haven't looked at the senses for the two yet. DCDuring TALK 02:39, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
