You may find it useful to look this over before creating more entries that may end up deleted. For well attested languages like English and Japanese, dictionaries do not serve to attest to a word. Instead, at least three independent uses of the word in durably archived media (things that are physically published, or that turn up on Google Books or Usenet) must be found. In the case of a word like yamma, it is of course possible, but quite unlikely, that these criteria will be met. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 08:08, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

It seems like you're not using {{ja-usex}}
and I was just wondering why. (Also, thanks for adding quotes :) ) —Suzukaze-c◆◆ 00:36, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
{{ja-usex}}
for simple, sort examples and {{quote-book}}
or similar for longer examples from published works. See a recent example of both at ぺちゃんこ. If I do something else, it's probably because I'm not paying sufficient attention. Cnilep (talk) 00:44, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
{{ja-usex}}
for both cases for the sake of consistency, although I get that the transliteration might make things long and unaesthetic. —Suzukaze-c◆◆ 00:48, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
{{ja-usex}}
only sorts into the first category, and entries in the latter category use {{quote}}
(for some reason or other).Hello! This is a final reminder that the Wikimedia Foundation survey will close on 23 April, 2018 (07:00 UTC). The survey is available in various languages and will take between 20 and 40 minutes. Take the survey now.

Hello Chad --
I tweaked your edits over at 擦る. Note that we don't use any "Readings" header, and instead we break out different readings under separate "Etymology" headers. Otherwise, looks good, and thank you for expanding the entry! ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 19:50, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi. When removing requests added in good faith, as you did here , please explain in the edit summary why you are removing them without fulfilling them. Equinox ◑ 19:40, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
I noticed your recent addition, and was curious about the etyms. It seems that the チャ variant was probably first, given the onomatopoeia ガチャ (gacha, the sound of something hard banging about). Then, reading through ja:w:ガシャポン, I was struck by this bit:
「ガシャポン」はバンダイの登録商標であり(日本国、商標登録第1756991号)同社が独占的に使用している。
Googling google:"ガシャポン" -バンダイ and google:"ガチャポン" -バンダイ does show that the シャ variant is still more common. However, given the trademark issue, I wonder if we shouldn't either 1) make ガチャポン the lemma, or 2) at least include a note somewhere about the trademark?

Hello Chad,
I see that you created the ガチ entry. The adverb sense there includes a usex that shows the word used as an adjective: ガチでうまい parses out to "gachi and umai", as two separate qualities -- the で (de) here is conjunctive.
Do you have any evidence for adverbial use? Presumably, we'd want examples of ガチ used without particles to modify a verb or other adjective.
Cheers, ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 00:23, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
Hi. "Related terms" is for words where the etymology is related, like "government" and "gubernatorial". In the case of ULEZ at T-Charge, it's not related in that way, merely a similar topic. I have changed that to "see also". Equinox ◑ 04:40, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
according to the Japanese Wikipedia and other sources, I think this is only pronounced as "mittsu no mitsu", not "mitsu no mitsu". --2409:894C:3C16:6A9:B8E4:B17A:4F2E:1AD9 03:27, 15 March 2021 (UTC) : @Eirikr What do you think? --2409:894C:3C30:2E79:F786:BD8C:A137:FD8D 02:00, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
Did you mean to use |t= (gloss) instead of |tr= (translit)? —Suzukaze-c (talk) 05:12, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
Damn I wish everybody was so quick on the cites as yourself. I gather you are an academic, which means (i) you are better at it but (ii) you have less time for it. blah blah blah Equinox ◑ 05:51, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
Appreciate your work on requested Japanese entries, etc. I guess we should say it sometimes. Equinox ◑ 03:44, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
If you think links should be removed from quotations, this should be discussed at the Beer parlour, as it is standard, e.g., in many Words of the Day. Sometimes names of people need to be linked to Wikipedia for context. J3133 (talk) 07:15, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
Don't cite Wordnik. All Wordnik does is agglomerate several freely licensed dictionaries, including Wiktionary, into one decrepit and hilariously outdated website. I saw that Wordnik was pulling a definition from the Century Dictionary, so I just cited that using {{R:Century 1914}}
