RFV discussion: May 2023
Per my comments at Talk:Mozela, the only link which supported this surname existing is unreliable, and so I removed the template containing it (which also contained another link, which at first blush appears promising but is just a search tool).

I dont believe this surname exists. I dont want to repeat all that I wrote about Mozela, since it seems that surname RFV's are treated as traditional words (see talk:Nazndah), meaning we have to find three cites in running text instead of just pointing to an unreliable surname depository. — Soap — 23:54, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

I recognize that this word has another extremely common sense that is going to make this unusually difficult to search for, but I think honestly if there are people who really have the surname Klingon, they will be famous for that alone (unless they are sick of the press) and they will be easy to find. Thanks, — Soap — 23:56, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

 * I checked census records, which are (I think) durably archived, and found a few people (of Russian extraction) : Max A. Klingon in Chattanooga, Hamilton, Tennessee, in the 1950 census (ignore the wonky highlighting); Arthur Klingon and his family of Klingons in Chatham, Georgia, in the 1940 census; Louis Klingon in Brooklyn, Kings, New York, in the 1940 census; Helen Klingon in Kings, New York, in the 1950 census. I can also find some other records by searching for "Klingon" in pre-Star Trek books at Google Books:

 * 1910, Michiganensian, volume 14, page 190:
 * Upon organization its members were as follows : Thomas Bell, Frank John Colgan, Roy Glenn Devoist, Marion Densmore, Lewis Eichee Klingon, William Lewis Rhonehouse, Densmore had disappeared, Klingon had gone to an eastern medical school, Stocking was not in college,
 * 1915 June 25, case published in 1916 in Workmen's Compensation: Compendium of Awards, page 296:
 * MOSES KLINGON.
 * 1944 October 19, case before judge Null, published in 1945 in New York Court of Appeals, Records and Briefs, page page 34:
 * Q. What was the name of the physician?
 * A. Dr. Klingon.
 * Q. [...] And when Dr. Klingon arrived, did he examine you?
 * A. He did.
 * Dr. Louis E. Klingon, residing at 1720 Avenue J, Brooklyn, N. Y., called as a witness on behalf of the plaintiffs, having first been duly sworn, tesified as follows:

 * There is also this fellow:

 * (When searching census records I came across a Klingonsmith, who I suppose is related.) - -sche (discuss) 00:55, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks and sorry for the trouble. I dont have access to census records (unless there's a free-access tool I dont know about) but I shouldve remembered that Google Books allows searching by date so that I could exclude the vastly more common modern sense. I don't think these could just all be typos so I agree it's cited now. — Soap — 02:08, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
 * No problem. And: I think FamilySearch.org is free; they index a lot of records and often have scans/photos of census records. I'm curious whether the large proportion of people of Russian extraction in the results I found means anything (is this a Russian surname?) or is just chance / noise. - -sche (discuss) 04:17, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

reilu: I know that for a few years it has become a common habit to say reilu in these cases, but originally reilu means "fair" like in "fair play", reilu peli, or "honest", rehellinen. We have several expressions to say "over" or "more than" etc.: yli, enemmän kuin, runsas etc. but we have only one word, reilu, for "fair". https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/reilu.2045905/ / fair : Tuo ei ole reilua.

Usage notes
For those speakers who use the word, the distinction between outside and outwith is parallel to that between inside and within: the former is more physical, the latter more abstract and conceptual. Contrast outside the house - outwith the home.
