Note the reversal of ratios for 間もなく入荷 and まもなく入荷. This wasn't because Japanese WWW pages changed between 2004 and 2007; it was because Kudoh et al. used the old IPADIC to drive the Google n-gram segmentation, and I used the later and more accurate Unidic to do the KM ones.
Maybe sense 1 should keep the "uk"? I'm comfortable either way.

Sense 2 isn't uk.
For sense 1, the numbers are all over the place but given that the JEs use kanji in their examples, I think we should drop the uk tag.
