I don't mind removing them. I used to enjoy adding [ok] readings to entries back then but now I'm not convinced there's much of a point in having them. I just want to point out though that the Nikkoku on Yahoo back then was a way more comprehensive edition than the one on Kotobank now, so the fact that a reading/kanji/entry isn't on Kotobank doesn't mean it's wrong.

Not a big deal but I wouldn't mind keeping おま as an [ok] form.

Only koj and nikk have おま and I'm not seeing いま in my refs. I don't think they're needed.

刺戟	16667	0.2%

https://www.wordreference.com/enja/irritating

I guess I am "disappearing" the 戟 kanji form, but it sure seems to deserve it.

Long-story-short on the rest: 刺激 means "irritating" in the skin-response-to-chemicals sense, but pretty much nothing else, and definitely not "annoying".  This term is widely misused by English speakers(this unadorned gloss predates jmdictdb), and I think needs some kind of clarification.  

====

I've spent a while looking at this entry, and 刺激性. Wordreference seems to have it figured out.  Under "irritation" in the E->J direction, where there are many potential glosses, 刺激 is limited to (cause discomfort to part of body)/(身体の一部).

irritate⇒ vtr	(annoy) (人) ～をイライラさせる、怒らせる、いら立たせる 他動
  (身体の一部) ～を刺激する、炎症を起させる 他動
  ex. This sweater's a bit irritating if you wear it next to your skin.

Under 刺激 they list:
irritation n	(skin reaction)

That seems a bit narrow. You can 刺激 any tissue of the body I think(lungs, eyes, nose, etc.).

The wikipedia entry for 刺激性 is all about chemical irritants. 刺激性's #1 use is for irritation of the body (skin, eyes, nose, lungs, etc.).  刺激性 as 刺激 + 性 for senses[2] and [3] here is comparatively quite rare.

The unadorned gloss of irritation has, I think, lead to a lot of poor translations. Just a handful of the many bad "examples" on reverso:
Filter packs screen out offensive and irritating Web pages. フィルターパックは攻撃的で刺激性のWebページをふるい落とす。
I have never in my life met someone so irritating.　私は刺激性の誰かに会ったことがない私の人生を持っている。
Please help me to solve this irritating issue by suggesting an optimum solution. ...刺激性の問題...
It is very irritating as you cannot watch your favorite video peacefully. あなたが好きなビデオを平和的に見ることができないので、とても刺激的です。
and on and on....
https://context.reverso.net/翻訳/英語-日本語/irritating

On that list of examples, 刺激性の問題 legitimately exists, but only as "the problem of(skin) irritants". (not "an annoying problem")

I'm open to any other ideas for clarification.

Merging.

perhaps close enough.

there seems to be a distinction in that ぎゃっ is often the kind of yelp you'd let out when being crushed or having your foot stepped on, whereas きゃっ is merely from being startled.

don't forget about きゃあ (1631770).  if there's not a total merge, then at a minimum, きゃっ should probably be merged into きゃあ.

Daijr, etc.

I see Daijirin has almost identical glosses for きゃっ and ぎゃっ. I think a merge is appropriate.

I came to this entry expecting to find that きゃっ meant "ouch", but instead it lists a more generic shriek or scream. So then I looked up "ouch", and I discovered that きゃっ does indeed mean "ouch", but that is listed under a separate entry for ぎゃあ; ギャー; ぎゃっ; ギャッ.  Seems like these two entries could be combined, perhaps :-)

For the record, I note that there are the following entries:-

キャンバス地テント 【きゃんばすちてんと】 (n) canvas tent; canvas; canvass; JWN-02954163-n
キャンバス地のシート 【？】 canvas sheet; WI4
キャンバス地のハンドバッグ 【？】 canvas handbag; WI4
キャンバス地のリュック 【？】 canvas pack; WI4 

My point is that "キャンバス地" is, on its own, the "groundsheet" in English. We also could say "lay the sheet which is the groundsheet" or things like, "this sheet is called the groundsheet", etc..

See below.

In the text which I was reading the topic was erecting a tent. The first task was to lay the "キャンバス地のシート". I guess that a literal meaning would be "sheet belonging to ground canvass", but the canvass sheet which goes on the ground in a tent is called a "ground sheet"; at least in the tents which I have had.
