<upd_detl>I see we need to do something about 〜 and ~, which most fonts have looking identical.
〜 (this one) comes from the JIS 全角 special characters, and Unicode has it in the CJK block with a code of U301C, and the name "wave dash". My IME produces it when I type にょろ.
~ (entry 2415870) is from the special Unicode block of double-width characters where it has the code FF5E and the name "Fullwidth Tilde". Originally it had the "other" 〜, but I think I deleted the wrong one in 2015.
FWIW several references give 波ダッシュ as the Japanese gloss of "tilde". 
While it might be good to have a single entry for the lot, I think perhaps there should be two:
- one for 波ダッシュ/なみダッシュ/tilde/wave dash/
- one for 〜 and ~ with the reading of にょろ and the gloss of tilde/wave dash.
- and our ティルデ entry too.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>The 〜 should be in the kanji field though, should it? Per previous discussion in the nakaguro entry (or whichever it might have been)</upd_detl>
