	Comments:	I'm not opposed to including " (a) Rip van Winkle; " but it should be a separate sense if so. but I'm not seeing a strong case for it in other dictionaries

	Comments:	At the 「浦島太郎状態」 entry, Jim said this should probably be moved from enamdict, though I don't know if he still feels that way. Notable enough figure, like Kintarō. P.S. Could one of the editors please add the macron to all of the x-refs? I don't want to spam the queue.
