Talk:abia

Pronunciation in the sound clip is incorrect for Romanian
The emphasis should be on the final syllable, and the -ia is basically like a diphthong here. In the clip it sounds like the 'i' is emphasized instead. Word dewd544 (talk) 21:33, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

Need help with translation
Greetings! Can you please help me, whose Chinese is undeniably rusty, translate this 's passage (source) which contains the earliest extant attested usage of 民族?

Chinese original:

"今諸華士女，民族弗革，而露首偏踞，濫用夷禮，云於翦落之徒，全是胡人，國有舊風，法不可變."

My rough translation:

"Nowadays the men and women of the, their ethnicity unchanged, yet have openly headed off to and leaned towards the occupiers and overused the Yi rites; 'tis said that among the sort of folks who have cut themselves off, all are persons; the nation has its ancient customs, the norms may not be changed/the cannot be changed."

Many thanks beforehand!Erminwin (talk) 16:52, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

 * I think I'd translate it like this:

 * "Nowadays, the men and women of the have not had their ethnicities changed, yet they have bared their heads and recline when sitting, overusing the barbaric rites. It is said that among those who have shaved [their heads to become monks and nuns], all are foreigners [from the West?]. The nation has its old customs; its norms may not be changed."

 * Based on 郝时远：中文“民族”一词源流考辨, this passage seems to be disapproving of people in the Central Plains converting to Buddhism. I'm not entirely sure about 露首偏踞, but it seems to be particular Buddhist practices., wondering if you could verify this. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 07:55, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

How we will see unregistered users
Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

 * Sorry for not providing a reason, but please see WT:TRANS. Translation sections should only be in English entries. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 01:10, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I found the following in WT:TRANS#Project scope: “Translation between two foreign languages is handled on the Wiktionaries in those languages. For example, a reader who wants to translate a Hindi word to Japanese should have some command of either language and look in the Hindi or Japanese Wiktionary.” So, it seems translations to a word xxx of language X to language Y should be added in the X-language Wiktionary page of the word xxx, right? I tried to move the translations to here: https://zh.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=%E9%99%A4%E5%A4%95&diff=7079544&oldid=6484752. Is that OK? Meng6 (talk) 01:58, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

Validity of Category- Validity of Entries in Category
Hello- I made Category:English terms derived from Tongyong Pinyin and Category:English terms derived from Wade-Giles, filing them with various entries that I (almost exclusively) made. I am operating in an "echo chamber of one" and I don't technically 'know' if these categories are valid vis-a-vis the overarching policies and structure of Wiktionary (I asked Frigoris one time, and the user seemed to think they were okay). Also, I have recently made a big push to fully document the Tongyong Pinyin category's entries up to the minimum three cites standards, but I don't actually know if the entries have fully met that standard (the pre-two week debate standard is what I'm aiming for, since that's the "safe zone") so if you see any of those entries (there are 28 at the moment) that are weak, I would appreciate some comments or advice. If you have a single thought on any these issues that may help me, please ping me and let me know, otherwise I will just assume I'm doing fine. Thanks! --Geographyinitiative (talk) 23:12, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi! First of all, welcome back! (Sorry for not saying this even though you've been back for a little while now!) I think these categories should be fine, but I'm not exactly sure if the category name should be worded this way without mentioning "Mandarin". The term isn't exactly derived from a romanization system but from Mandarin via the system. I think you might want to bring this to WT:BP for more discussion. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 23:41, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

First of all, I don't think the green shading is enough to differentiate the Sino-Xenic from non-Sino-Xenic, so having others would make it more apparent. Second, the formatting messes up if you just have bullets after . Third, the Others label is already used in many entries, so I'd say it's standard practice on Chinese entries. BTW, it is also standard practice for Compounds and Descendants to be at the same level as Definitions in single-character Chinese entries. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 15:48, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

Distributing Old and Middle Chinese pronunciations
Hi, I am curious what resources you usually consult to determine how to properly distribute old and middle Chinese pronunciations. In many cases it's quite clear, but sometimes I can't really tell for myself, like at 頡 and at 筑. The latter you split not too long ago, so I was wondering if you could say how you knew to do it. Thanks, ChromeGames (talk) 12:35, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, I usually split them based on dictionaries like 漢語大字典 and 王力古漢語字典, which list the Mandarin pronunciation with qieyun from rime books. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 16:08, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reply, I'll look into acquiring those or some similar ones. I've been eyeing 漢語大字典 for quite some time now since it seems very good but just have not gotten around to it yet. I do wonder though, would you say those two that you mention are considered authoritative when there's a conflict with other sources? For example Kroll's Student Dictionary gives 筑 with only the sense zither under drjuwk, but it doesn't seem to fit with etymology 2 as listed on Wiktionary so I am not sure if it is correct. ChromeGames (talk) 05:03, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I'd say the Chinese sources are more accurate. If you check the "primary" source Guangyun, you'll find that the "zither" sense is only given under the 張六切 reading. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 06:21, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * That makes sense, and thanks for the suggestion that I should be checking the rhyme dictionary sources. I had not been the most familiar with reading them up until now, but I see that Guangyun gives the two listed pronunciations as the instrument and the river. Actually I have not previously read the rhyme dictionaries outside the kangxi dictionary, but I realize now that kangxi seems to not include their entries sometimes so I will definitely be checking separately. Thanks, ChromeGames (talk) 05:32, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, definitely check the older rime dictionaries because Kangxi is a compilation of those rime dictionaries and may leave out certain things. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 06:06, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

梵
Hi mate. Is there any chance you could help me add the variant pronunciation for this character: fán. This is really common — in fact, I think the standard reading fàn is pretty rare in the wild.

Hi Justin. We currently claim this term comes from English "beg sir". I note that the guifan cidian provides the following etymology and definition: 英语 pit sense 音译. 流行于上海及周边地区，原指无正当职业的游民，现指形体干瘪、举止猥琐的人. What do you think? ---> Tooironic (talk) 05:16, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Cantonese for "touch wood"
I wanted to ask you if there's any Cantonese exclamation that sounds something like "choy" that people say when someone says something inauspicious. The expression is commonly used in Singlish, and conventional wisdom is that it comes from Cantonese, but the tone doesn't sound like a tone that exists in Cantonese (Similar to tone 4 in Mandarin, and tone 2 in Hokkien). And people do often follow it up with 大吉利市. The dog2 (talk) 02:40, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's Cantonese 啋 coi1. Tone 1 is high falling sometimes. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 02:51, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Should we add this definition to the entry? In Singapore, it's typically said to ward of a potential jinx, but I'm not sure if the usage pattern is different in Hong Kong. The dog2 (talk) 03:44, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

墘 vs 舷
Should we unify them all under the same character? For now, it seems that we use 墘 for Hokkien entries (eg. 路墘) and 舷 for Hainanese entries (eg. 厝舷) even though they are probably etymologically related. I don't know if any character has been agreed upon here for Teochew entries, but im Singaporean Teochew, the word for "roadside" is basically the same as the Hokkien word. And I know that 墘/舷 is also used to refer to the reverside in Teochew in China (as in 韓江墘). The dog2 (talk) 04:01, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

Incorrect Gwoyeu Romatzyh orthography
Hi. I wrote this note on another page (Wiktionary talk:About Chinese) but I haven't had a reply yet. Maybe it was the wrong place.

I noticed that the Gwoyeu Romatzyh for 也 is given as "yyie". It should be "yee", but you can't edit it directly. Does anyone know how to fix this? The same problem occurs for 野, and 野犬, and presumably anywhere the GR equivalent of pinyin yě (namely "yee") is needed. Richwarm88 (talk) 22:59, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Thanks for finding this error. It should be fixed now. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 08:13, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Wonderful. Thank you. By the way, is the Wiktionary's GR generated from a pinyin-2-GR table, and if so, is there a link to the code? I'm thinking maybe I could cast my eye over it to see if there are any issues with syllables other than "yee". -- Richwarm88 (talk) 10:37, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

 * It's not generated by a table, but some code in MOD:cmn-pron. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 18:08, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
 * (1) Thanks. I tried to use that code to generate a table so that I could check the PY2GR conversions, but unfortunately I was unable to get the script to run.
 * (2) However, I've noticed that the GR-generating code does not observe the following orthographical rule relating to neutral-tone syllables in Gwoyeu Romatzyh (GR):
 * "A dot (usually written as a period or full stop) may be placed before neutral tone syllables, which appear in their original tonal spelling: e.g. 朋友 perng.yeou" (my emphasis).
 * So it's perng.yeou — not perng.iou, as the Wiktionary entry for 朋友 states.
 * Evidently Wiktionary's GR-generating code is indiscriminately converting neutral syllables to first tone rather than using the original tone. Is this something that Wiktionary is interested in fixing? Fixing it would require the code to use more than just the Pinyin spelling as input, since the original tone of a neutral-tone syllable is not evident in Pinyin spelling. For example, to convert péngyou to GR, you would need to determine the original tone of "you", and to do that you would need to examine the corresponding hanzi (友). It's not enough to just look at the Pinyin "you".
 * Alternatively, is it possible to override the generated GR if it's incorrect? E.g. replace reh.nhau with reh.naw in the entry for 熱鬧. -- Richwarm88 (talk) 05:20, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
 * For testing, you could try Module:cmn-pron/testcases. —Fish bowl (talk) 05:30, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
 * @Fish bowl Thanks. That page shows that PY2GR conversion works correctly for several dozen cases, but none of those cases is a word containing a neutral tone. Even if there were such a case, one couldn't necessarily confirm that the conversion was correct without seeing the hanzi (in order to determine the original tone of the neutral syllable). None of the PY2GR test cases on that page displays the hanzi. Richwarm88 (talk) 06:59, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I think the neutral tone case is interesting. I think we can perhaps somehow indicate the original tone in our input, perhaps something like  or  ? There are many entries where the neutral tone occurs, so we'd have to go in to those entries and change them. We would also need to make some changes on the module to make this possible. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 20:47, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
 * It would be great if it could be fixed. Your suggestion ("somehow indicate the original tone in our input, perhaps something like  or  ") sounds very good. Maybe the input as it is at present (e.g.  ) could remain valid (so you don't have to change too many entries) but there could be an optional extra input like   that would be used by the PY2GR conversion code whenever the extra input is available. Perhaps a bot could add this extra input, at least in cases where the hanzi in question has only one possible original tone (as with the 友 in 朋友). In other cases, where the hanzi has more than one possible original tone (like 量 in 力量), the extra input (in this case,   rather than  ) could be gradually added manually by human contributors. I'm afraid I don't know Wiktionary well enough to be able to carry out these suggestions (allowing an optional extra input, modifying the PY2GR code, and creating a bot to insert extra inputs such as  ). However, I would be able to do some of the manual work like adding   as an extra input in order to generate the correct GR,.
 * Having said all that, I now see that Wiktionary does in fact have the correct GR  for 力量! It does not indiscriminately make the second syllable Tone 1 (which would have made it  ). So it seems Wiktionary already has a way to make the GR correct. Perhaps a clue lies in the fact that the Pinyin in that entry is specified as "Pinyin: lìliàng → lìliang (toneless final syllable variant)". That formulation seems to have been added in that 力量 entry by Wyang in 2014.  -- Richwarm88 (talk) 21:47, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I checked the pinyin specification in the entry for 力量. It says, and that last bit, "tl=y" appears to be the key. If you change it to just  , the generated GR is no longer correct; it appears in the preview as  . -- Richwarm88 (talk) 22:19, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I was wondering if that would give different output, and indeed it does. I think the issue is that y should only be used when both neutral and non-neutral pronunciations are "standard" (so-called 重·次輕詞語). — justin(r)leung { (t...) 22:36, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I see. So if  is not considered a standard variant pronunciation in mainland China, then we can't use   in the entry for 朋友. Well, even if that's the case, it seems like it should not require too much of an extension to Wiktionary's pronunciation format to specify an original-tone pronunciation that would enable correct conversion to GR. Currently there are the following keywords: tl, tl2 and tl3. Here is a piece of relevant code in Module:cmn-pron    I note also that there is an example at "Template:cmn-pron", where the "tl2" keyword ("ToneLess in position 2" keyword) is used in the case of 對不起. If "tl" can only be used when both neutral and non-neutral pronunciations are "standard", perhaps another keyword, say "atl" (i.e. "Always ToneLess" in standard Mandarin) should be added to enable correct GR conversions. So for 朋友, instead of  , it might look like  . -- Richwarm88 (talk) 23:18, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

Snow melting vocab in 現代漢語方言大詞典
Just wanna get your opinion. So in 現代漢語方言大詞典, there's dialectal vocab on how each dialect says "snow melted", like "雪化了", "雪消咧", etc. Do you think that's SOP, or it can be included in Wiktionary? As a side comment though, I sometimes find the SOP rule an obstacle for users, because sometimes SOP entries are really useful for people. --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 04:42, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Uselessness of Geyin Fuhao
Hey, I have been getting deep on Geyin Fuhao again, and I've realized that there is almost no situation in English where the Geyin Fuhao differentiates two nouns that could be confused. The closest example is Jinan (Ji'nan) and Jin'an, but those locations are literally hundreds of miles apart and not easily confused. The best argument that geyin fuhao can differentiate words is something like Xinan/Xin'an; still a weak argument to me. The only remaining practical value of Geyin Fuhao in English is as a pronunciation aid, but I think that if you say "Xian" out loud to someone learning it, they'll get it. I'm coming here to ask you: can you personally think of one good example (in English) of where the Geyin Fuhao differentiates two easily confused nouns? If not, what about two nouns that are kinda hard to confuse? And does Geyin Fuhao really have the pronunciation aid function for the book-bound who never hear the word spoken? I ask all these questions because I'm finding that Reuters has already jumped ship on the Geyin Fuhao in several cases- Boao, Puer, Xian, Xiongan, and Yanan. Not to mention Tiananmen Square. Any opinions or insight would be helpful; see my wild ramblings at Talk:隔音符號 if you want to go down the rabbit hole. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 22:26, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

 * That's exactly what I'm asking you for- an example of it helping. The only two I can find are Jinan/Ji'nan (but these seem hard to confuse- the context clues would be key) and Xinan/Xin'an (this is the best argument I can find that it helps anywhere at all). I just find it interesting that these are the only examples of it helping in English. I'm just turning sour on this apostrophe since examples of the Geyin Fuhao actually helping in any specific scenario are scarce as hen's teeth and Reuters is avoiding it. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 00:07, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

help
I don't know where to ask questions like these so I figured I'd ask here. Please let know me if there is a more appropriate place though.

Hi I'm a research assistant trying to build a cognate set in IPA for every Sinitic variety.

I tried https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Module:zh/data/dial-pron, which has IPA for about 1,000 cognate sets across 39 varieties.

however, i realized that wiktionary has significantly more data for every variety in each variety's own transcription system (e.g. POJ, PFS, Jyutping, etc). as such, I plan to augment this tool https://github.com/dmort27/epitran to convert from each variety's phonetic transcription to IPA.

As I stumbled across the sheer amount of Wiktionary entries for many Sinitic varieties, I was curious how Wiktionary users added so many entries. I can't find the sources (except for Phonetic Database of Modern Chinese Dialects listed on https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Module:zh/data/dial-pron), and I imagine that someone wrote a script to scrape from some digital corpus.

Is there one central, digital resource from which many entries are added, or at least one for each variety? Or do users manually enter the data from a book.

also, is there already some resource on Wiktionary that converts from each variety's phonetic transcription to IPA? I've seen some entries using Sinological IPA, which I could then convert to IPA, but it doesn't seem like most entries have this.

finally, are you aware of any tool that parses Chinese entries on Wiktionary? i tried parsing the XML dump, but it takes a really long time.

thank you in advance!!

 * Thank you for your questions. You'd be surprised to find that actually a lot of what we do is manual. There are several different sources for pronunciation information, none of which are completely digitized in a useful way AFAIK. There should be information on the subpages of User:Justinrleung/Dialect Resources. One source that might not be listed there is 汉语方音字汇. There are also additional resources on Mandarin, Cantonese, Hakka and Min Nan. You may want to check out Module:zh/data.
 * For romanization to IPA, we definitely have modules that do this conversion for us. They should be on most entries if you click on the expand button. You should check out MOD:zh-pron and the modules mentioned in the documentation there.
 * As for tools for parsing Chinese entries, you could check out MOD:zh. The functions there are kind of brute force, so if you have any suggestions, please let us know! There might be other parsers out there external to Wiktionary, but I'm not very familiar with the tools.

恩義
Greetings, Justin. Up until very recently, I have been always under the mistaken impression that 恩義 primarily means "gracious act, favor" (I ever parse it as righteousness 義 of favor 恩) (based on how 恩義's Sino-Vietnamese reflexes ân/ơn nghĩa is primarily used in Vietnamese) and secondarily "feeling of gratitude and loyalty/obligation [for favor received]"; until these two early attestations in Baihutong (Tjan Tjoe Som's translation) & Lunheng (Forke's translation) confirm that 恩義 primarily means "feeling of gratitude and loyalty/obligation [for favor received]".

Still, I wonder if the extended meaning "gracious act, favor" < "feeling of gratitude and loyalty/obligation" were present in Chinese (at least vernacular) as well. For examples, in these Sanguo Yanyi passages 恩義 apparently means "favor, kindness" (translation by me):

While 想起當日曹操許多恩義 is also translatable as "Now Guan Yu recalls his feelings of much gratitude towards Cao Cao's promise (to let him go back to Liu Bei)", I don't think 恩義 in the 2nd scenario, which features Zhang Fei & Yan Yan, to be Yan Yan's feelings of gratitude towards Zhang Fei.

Thanks in advance!

 * Hi. I'm not entirely sure. Hanyu Da Cidian only has one definition 道義；恩情, and Guoyu Cidian only has 深厚的恩情義氣. In the first Sanguo passage, the 許 should not be analyzed separately from 多. It should be 許多 + 恩義 = many 恩義. It does seem like in these quotes from Sanguo, they are actions that come out of one's affection/gratitude and loyalty rather than merely a feeling., any thoughts? — justin(r)leung { (t...) 18:08, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

How to Characterize Lvliang and Lvshunkou
Hey, I am wondering: if you have an opinion, what would be the appropriate way to characterize these words with {{lb|en| or in the etymologies- I think I found the "origins" of the ü -> v switch- see Talk:Lvliang. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 22:39, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * {{re|Geographyinitiative}} Perhaps "proscribed"? But I think it's just fine to not label it any more than "alternative form of". — justin(r)leung {{sub|{ (t...) | c=› }}} 00:11, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
 * What about 'colloquial' or 'informal' too, since the local gov and train station use it, plus all the Chinese ethnicity authors in the cites? Like Wu Han? Just brainstorming. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 11:27, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh oh, I got another question--- could Lienchiang as the name for the Matsu's get the label 'rare'? I will start a Talk page discussion. Again, sorry for asking all these questions, feel free to ignore. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 12:00, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

 * {{re|Geographyinitiative}} Good point about the v spellings used in more official contexts. I think it's more of a typographic convenience than a matter of formality, kind of like using  or  instead of <ö> or <ü> in German names, so I'm not quite sure if any of these labels are quite accurate either.

 * About Lienchiang, I'm not sure if it's exactly synonymous to the Matsu Islands, but the official administration of the islands. I'm also not sure if it's rare. — justin(r)leung {{sub|{ (t...) | c=› }}} 20:29, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

Complaint
Hi,

My edits were undone by an auto-patroller who was quite rude in their edit summaries about my edits (the edits appear under a different IP as my IP is dynamic). While my edits may not have been correct (which I have still not been convinced that they are incorrect as their reasoning for undoing my edits were very cryptic and difficult to understand), I felt that it was quite rude and unprofessional for them (especially given that they are a staff member), and as such would like to report this. Because there is no administrators' noticeboard on English Wiktionary, I would like to come to you to ask about this. First and second edit summaries in which they had made these remarks.

--2001:569:7C0E:300:A914:D247:44EE:B046 23:04, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Hi, I agree that their remarks were a bit overboard, but the reversions are correct. There is no way for an English letter to have Middle/Old Chinese pronunciations or literary/vernacular distinctions., please be reminded that even if the edits are atrocious, they are still people at the other end. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 23:43, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
 * That said, everyone is a volunteer. Being an autopatroller just means their edits are generally trusted by the community. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 23:44, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Be careful Fish bowl! You are of course right! Keep your cool! --Geographyinitiative (talk) 23:46, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

 * It looks like the IP editor just copied the pronunciations from 直. It's certainly anachronistic to include  and  . That said, it would be good to include pronunciations in other Chinese dialects/languages, assuming Z is used in them, but this should be done more carefully rather than blindly copying and pasting. 98.170.164.88 23:51, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's exactly the issue and why the reversions are needed. Inferring pronunciations is a big no-no. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 23:54, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep. "Appendix:Harry Potter/Spells" (which was already deleted; why?) and "Appendix:Harry Potter/Events" should be of value, on the same basis as the other HP appendices. To keep these from being "self-indulgent fancruft", however, we can cut excess content, to keep it from being very detailed info, of interest only to true HP fandom. "lists of fictional proper nouns are completely irrelevant". No. That's what appendices of fiction ar for: to list terms from the fiction series.
 * "We don't want to compete with WP and others for this kind of thing." We won't. WP givs detailed info, unlike Wiktionary (WT), which only givs definitions, usage, etc.
 * This deletion of "Appendix:Harry Potter/Spells", proposed deletion of "Appendix:Harry Potter/Events", unsuccessful RFD on "Appendix:Harry Potter", and repeat removal of the WT article "Hermione" from "Category:en:Harry Potter"; makes it look like there is a war on Harry Potter. As for the last point, "Category:en:William Shakespeare" has the names of many Shakespeare characters; the rough criteria is, i think, if the WP article with said title refers to said Shakespeare character (e.g. the WP articles "" and "" refer to the title characters in '); then that is the "primary" use of said name, so the WT article belongs in said category. If HP characters ar held to a fundamentally different standard than Shakespeare characters; then that is a double standard, discriminatory. If you Google "Hermione", you get very few results that don't refer to . What would you expect?, given that each of the last four HP books – ', ', ', and ' – set a new record for fastest-selling book of all time. Hermione Granger is overwhelmingly the main use, nowadays, of the name Hermione (and almost certainly will be so for the foreseeable future). Not so for most HP names; most names ar common (Harry, Potter, Peter [Pettigrew]), or a lesser character (Cho Chang, Fluffy), or often refer to something else (there is, but also ; there is , but an unqualified use of the name "Sirius" generally refers to ). At any rate, it can't hurt to hav, on the WT article "Hermione", a link to the WP article "". I added to some WT articles a usage note about the term's use in a work of fiction; e.g. use of "walker" to mean "zombie", is mainly in '; or that the most famous use of "shrew" to mean "ill-tempered woman", is in ; both edits seem to hav been accepted. Why can't the WT article "Hermione" mention that the name nowadays usually refers to Hermione Granger?
 * Sorry if i got a little off-topic, but WT should giv proper, and honest, coverage of HP. And is a WT article "Hermione" that doesn't mention Hermione Granger, much different from a WT article "Juliet" that doesn't mention Juliet Capulet? Solomonfromfinland (talk) 15:34, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
 * First of all, this is not Wikipedia, so what is included or not in Wikipedia doesn't matter. The origins of terms do not matter, what matters is how they are used. There are millions of instances the world over of people using the term "Romeo" by way of allusion to the character from Shakespeare, not speaking of the character directly but instead comparing the subject to the character, and outside of the context of the play. The name "Hermione" may be used outside of the immediate context of Harry Potter in reference to the attributes of the character, but simply because a character exists in a work of fiction does not mean they should be included in a dictionary.
 * Also, it is fairly obtuse if you think that it is a double standard that more terms from Shakespeare have entered the lexicon than the Harry Potter series, Shakespeare is likely the most influential writer of English that ever lived, and Harry Potter is pop-fiction which has been around for about 25 years. - TheDaveRoss  12:08, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Proper nouns already have to justify themselves for inclusion in a dictionary beyond other parts of speech, because they're commonly encyclopaedic in nature. When they're fictional, they serve absolutely no purpose. Theknightwho (talk) 12:24, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Do you see these as different from (e.g.) Category:Halogens? —Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 21:56, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
 * We have lots of encyclopedic categories. The most irritating are those (geo)political placename categories, which should be replaced by historical/traditional/geographical ones. ·~   dictátor · mundꟾ  08:47, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
