OK.

The addition of 伏せる to this entry has set up an overlap with 1500220. It's upset the examples for 伏せる because they get linked here as well. 臥せる/ふせる is not that common, and using 伏せる for this meaning is quite rare (which is why the JEs ignore it.)
What I'm proposing to do is:
- remove 伏せる from here;
- add an extra sense in 1500220 - "to lie down; to retire; to go to bed (with an illness)" with xrefs to/from here.
It's not the way kokugos do it, but it will be unambiguous and stop messing up the examples.

only an [exp] can be marked as [id].  in any case, the mailing list is the place for conversation

I don't think the constituent parts are just kanji - 月並み is a compound of two words, 魂柱 isn't. Surely "leg-pulling" is just as 
idiomatic in usage as "pulling one's leg"?

Here the only "constituent parts" are the kanji. That doesn't make it idiomatic, any more than 魂柱 is.

Point taken. But the usage is idiomatic, though? "Not apparent from its constituent parts." Wouldn't it better to change the definition in 
the help file to "idiomatic usage"?

a single word cannot be an idiom.  the tag for [id] says it is defined as "idiomatic expression".  if an entry doesn't take [exp] then it can't take [id]

correct restriction is つきなみ; also applies to 月次 with that reading

[adj-no] is at least better than [n]
I've never really understood what [adj-f] is,
but many of our [adj-f] entries seem to be prefixes in compound nouns rather than adjectives

I think the usage in things like 自動ドア is just a noun in a compound noun, not adjectival. But even if we decide it's adjectival, 自動 
is also commonly used as an adj-no (which I count as "noun" use)... which means normally we'd tag it as adj-no, not adj-f (because that's 
implied by adj-no). I think [adj-no,n] would be better than [adj-f]

(I see our 半自動 entry is [n,adj-f]  "semi-automatic", while 全自動 is	[adj-no] "totally automatic")

I agree. The law dictionaries don't have kokoku or interlocutory.

特別抗告　was in the news today: 
https://www.asahi.com/articles/ASL6C4R5VL6CUTIL027.html

The proposed meaning is consistent with Daijirin and Kenkyusha(I am not 
sure if gg5 is the correct citation for my smartphone version, but it does 
say 第5版). 
Daijirin:下級裁判所の決定・命令を不服として、上級裁判所に不服を申し立てること。
gg5: (法) a protest; a complaint; an appeal

I suggest there is no need to include the romaji "kokoku" in the Meaning. 
In my opinion "appeal" is a valid translation because, although procedural 
details may differ, the underlying concept is common to different 
jurisdictions.

"Interlocutory"　is a particular type of appeal so should be in a separate 
entry. 

When the issue about deleting the romaji (kokoku) is settled I will submit 
revisions for 準抗告、特別抗告　and 即時抗告 which have the same issue. I will 
also have a go at separating entries for "urgent" and "interlocutory", that 
is if it can be done without calling for a lawyer. Also can take the 
opportunity to update the cross-referencing.

OK.

going through the most recent tweets containing "打ち所", I counted
打ち所(が)悪い 25
火の打ち所のない 1
比の打ち所が無い 1
others 10

I think the anonymous contributor is right, this seems by far the most common usage of "打ち所".

非の打ち所がない is (a) about 20 times more common, and (b) has a meaning which is not that obvious. 打ち所が悪い is not that common and unlikely to cause someone encountering it any trouble. I agree with Rene.

I meanT the first reference to be this:

打ち所が悪いと死ぬこともある. A blow to the wrong place [A misdirected blow] can be fatal.

It is on the same page but below.

I made the submission because the word 打ち所 is almost always paired with 悪い
except in the expression 非の打ち所がない

i'm inclined to omit this since the translation is obvious from the sum of its parts.  this is not a separate expression in any japanese dictionary or treated specially in gg5, prog, etc.

also, the first reference provided is just edict

Forgot to tick the box ....

So are we dropping it or not? It was just approved.

OK, drop it. WWWJDIC's glossing function handles it OK. I've added it to my text-glossing file.

i agree with Robin that it's probably not needed

For people (and esp. beginners) using tools like rikai-kun etc., I think it's convenient to be able to pick this up in one sweep and 
immediately provide an idiomatic translation instead of forcing them to puzzle out what the constituent parts mean on their own, and 
it's useful for reverse look-ups and possibly Japanese users looking for how to say 外で飼う in English (it probably won't take long 
before a google search for 外で飼う　英語 brings up the weblio page including this definition as the first result). Also in general if it 
really is an idiomatic expression (and in another source; even if it's eij), I think entries like these are basically harmless to 
include - there are no obvious downsides and you never know in what ways it might be useful (machine translation?)

The "10 times" is taken from examining the two terms in the Kyoto/Melbourne n-gram corpus (http://nlp.cis.unimelb.edu.au/jwb/ngramcountswww.html) and the much larger Google Japanese n-gram corpus (https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2009T08). The counts are above.

I do not know where you get "10 times more common" from, but it cannot be right.
This word is followed by 思う almost all the time, just like 打ち所 is followed by 悪い.


The example on 大辞林 is 互いに憎からず思っている.
The example on 大辞泉 is 憎からず思う.
The example on nihonjiten.com is 憎からず思う.


I viewed 100 Google results for "憎からず" and found
63 憎からず思う
7  憎からず想う
1  憎からず感じる
21 dictionary sites (varying quality): at least 4 had 思う


I have added a translation which is perhaps better than what I originally provided.
