	Comments:	OK. I'll delete the other 乃/之 entry. The uk tags are probably not needed, but are not a problem.

	Comments:	I agree with that. I also feel like having these in a seperate entry conveys the notion that it's a "different" kind of (possessive) の than the one used in modern day japanese, maybe that's just me though. Apart from that I too think the extra kanji entry for の doesn't provide anything useful, adding the kanji forms here and putting a note onto the first sense is quite clear in my opinion. Also, is it necessary to mark every sense as [uk] here?

	Comments:	I suggested this previously - to just merge in 乃[sK]；之[sK]. They're already mentioned in the sense 1 note and therefore ought to be included as sK's either way. I really don't think having the two of them in a separate entry does anybody any favors. Since ん is a separate entry, I don't think we need to mention it in the notes.

	Comments:	The "sometimes" might better be "originally". As for ん, that's already a headword in 2139720, where sense 3 says "abbr. of particle "no"". So searching for it gets you to the right place. The entry for の is complicated enough already, and we've split 乃/之 to declutter it. I think keeping ん apart too is appropriate.

	Comments:	shouldn't "ん" be a headword/reading? rather than just a note? "sometimes written 乃 or 之" should maybe be rephrased too (it's not the case of "sometimes" as much as it's the case of "back in the good ol' days")

	Comments:	We probably need to regularize whether these "sentence end" annotations go at the start of end of the gloss. At present they are all over the place.
