	Comments:	even though it is "nokanji", i don't think we would normally keep a reading merged together with a headword with which it cannot possibly correspond. じゃねー/じゃねぇ cannot match じゃ無い, so i don't think they should be in here. i am more indifferent on ぢゃない, but given that it's marked ik, and corresponds to only one of the headwords, i think it should be split out

	Comments:	ぢゃない is pronounces the same way as じゃない so I don't think it should be split out together with じゃねー.

	Comments:	では and じゃ appear to be separate, so for consistency's sake, these should be too. (although i'm not necessarily opposed to merging では and じゃ)

	Refs:	daijr has ではない in a separate entry.　daijs has "でない" with the usage note "◆「ではない」「でもない」という形でも用いられ、「ではない」は、日常会話では「じゃない」となることが多い。" (but not じゃない)
2.	A* 2012-10-29 04:04:17 Jim Breen <...address hidden...>
	Comments:	I'm not opposed to it, partly because it all helps text glossing. (I have じゃない in the special glossing kana dictionary, but not ぢゃない.) Perhaps ではない should be here too as a headword?

	Comments:	don't know if this is really necessary, I just assumed there'd be an entry for じゃない so I figured I'd add the popular alt. spelling ぢゃない to it. turns out it does have an entry in daijr
