Etymology[edit]

Have added an etymology section and, having checked the OED and other dictionaries, inserted the commonly agreed one and removed an uncited descent from the Irish. I had problems with layout using the Etymology heading though (it made the text box run into the top illustration)...if anyone can help fix that it would be appreciated.--Phil Wardle (talk) 01:10, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Missing Word?[edit]

Is there a word or are there words missing in the below passage?

"Scrivener notaries are only appointed after five years articles to a practicing scrivener notary."

It's the phrase "five years articles" that seems to be missing something. --Skb8721 (talk) 21:04, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merger[edit]

Should be merged with Scribe IMO, since they cover the same topic. 142.68.89.145 (talk) 06:03, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I second this opinion. Dzenanz (talk) 10:05, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Scrivener is not entirely obsolete[edit]

Hello, Scrivener is not entirely obsolete as, for instance, there are still scriveners in some Arab countries including not limited to Iraq, Egypt and Sudan.--Abu aamir (talk) 10:40, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
