  Refs:
- sankoku has 端たない as a headword (wrapped in its '仮名書き可' parentheses)
- shinmeikai has this word as a subentry in its entry for はした【端た】
- obunsha has 端ない as a headword
- iwakoku states directly that this is 「端」の形容詞化。

None of these refs say it is ateji or a special reading / jukujikun.

Since the 国語s are quiet on it being an ateji, I think I'll put it in a note, and close it.

Sorry, I meant [iK], not [oK]. Definitely irregular, not obsolete.
I can find quite a few recent examples of "端ない" on Twitter.

  Comments:
is there any evidence that this is "obsolete"?  (i.e., is there any evidence it used to be a thing in the past but is no longer?  the uses i'm seeing online don't seem to come from old sources)  i think ateji makes more sense
--
also, 端たない seems to be more common than 端ない, since 端ない looks to get a lot more false positives.
--
overall i get <200 "real" google hits for both headwords combined (many/most of which don't seem to be real), which raises the question of whether it's worth recording at all, or if it's just a henkan error and should be iK

i guess we can keep it as ateji or oK then.  i would have thought maybe henkan error, but that's unlikely to show up in multiple sources (one hopes)

中辞典 (has 端たない as headword.) JWN (possibly from JMdict). Goi Taikei and the JLD have it too
  Comments:
Rene also puzzled over it a bit in 2009 (old logs) when he recommended the ateji tag for it. As well as being in 中辞典 it's in the Ichiman reference, but parenthesized (《端たない》). It's also in a small JE that came with my old EB copy of Daijirin as 端ない.
I think it probably should stay; either as ateji or oK.

  Comments:
Like Rene, I'm puzzled by the [ichi1] tag.
端たない only gets a few dozen Google hits once you click through to the 4th page of results. I'm in favour of dropping it.
端ない is more common but I think it needs an [oK] tag.

none of mine either...  it's not even mentioned in a note in any of the dics.  is the kanji really ichi1?
