most hits for ハーフ are about the biracial sense.

"esp. half-Japanese" as you'll often hear people say　”アメリカ
人のハーフ","ドイツ人のハーフ" etc. or just "あのモデルはハーフ", 
meaning they are half-Japanese half-something else and not 
just biracial in general.</upd_refs>

<upd_detl>1) i don't think it should come first
2) adding note on etymology (koj, meikyo)
3) restoring "person of mixed parentage" to match def in all kokugos and gg5, prog</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I think the biracial sense should come 
first, still. We normally put the most 
common sense first. A user literate with 
our style would otherwise assume it more 
commonly refers to just "half", which is 
incorrect.
I see the "from half-blood" note in nikk 
as well but I can't help but I don't think 
this is actually true. Jawiki has a bit on 
the etymology but nothing points to it 
coming fron ハーフブラッド

I'm not sure ハーフ should really be tagged 
as sens (though I'm the one who originally 
tagged it as such). It is to some people, 
perhaps, but I think they are a very small 
minority.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>with gairaigo, we normally put first the sense that corresponds to the foreign word of origin.  in addition, every single japanese and japanese-english dictionary lists "half" first.  this ordering looks silly</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I too think the straight loanword sense should be first. Among other reasons it's what it 
means in almost all compounds.
Can drop the tag, I guess.</upd_detl>
