Yes

As K. Birch said, sense 2 is only ケロケロ. I suggest dropping ゲロゲロ from here and adding a croaking sense to our ゲロゲロ "vomiting" entry. The kokugos have them in one entry.
I don't think ゲコゲコ should be hidden. It's a completely different form. I'll make a new entry for it.

The sense "auto-tuned" is in common parlance, and the phrase ケロケロボイス can even be found on the Japanese Wikipedia article for Auto-Tune:
https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/オートチューン

The term is also explained on a few publications like this:
https://utaten.com/live/kero-kero-voice/

The sense of "autotuned" only applies to the spelling ケロケロ. Suggestions for related entries could be ケロケロボイス (auto-tuned voice; hard-tuned vocals; robotic vocal effect; the Cher effect) and ケロる (to sound auto-tuned; to be hard-tuned); the latter of which is often used causatively as ケロらせる (to auto-tune; to hard-tune).

Tightened slightly.  "bulky" and "heavy" identify the same thing here, but maybe "bulky" makes the connection to "bundle up" more salient.  If that is indeed the connection.　　Chatgpt prefers "bulky or heavy", which would also be fine.

Japanese person used to the term 分厚い to speculate that this is why it was used with armor (no Japanese person has volunteered the armor connection without it being pointed out, so this is speculation on his part).

寒い時期は、スーツにセーターを着込んで暖かく過ごしたいですよね。

It is fashion, but it's still to keep warm:
スーツに合うセーターは色や形が大事。レディースの着こなし方解説
https://re-muse.jp/re-blog/suit-sweater-ladies-983/
スーツとセーターの組み合わせは、昔には見られなかったものです。近年、ウォームビズが推進されていることもあり、室内での防寒もかねて、スーツの下にセーターを着込む機会が増えています。

"to wear" should probably be there, just like on 着る.  A 3rd Japanese speaker volunteered the fashion sense of "wear a sweater under a jacket", which gemini also hammered me on.   Even so, I think "warmth" is usually still a goal, so the wording of 2 is fine.

It seems like an optional/stylish replacement for 着る when warm layering is involved.  I think it's a nuance that would usually be dropped in translation.

sense [5], fashion of worn jeans and jean jacket, zero layers (shirtless!)
https://liveinrugged.com/2024/03/24/blackmeans-kamiya-202403/

I don't have a good winter jacket, so I'm wearing multiple lighter jackets.  着込む was taught to me in this sense: "Layering". I just wanted to improve the  main sense, but went down a rabbit hole.

Except for [5], all transitive senses could be glossed as "to put on" or "to wear".  It's all about added nuance.

The transitive and intransitive uses for "protect from cold" have very different glosses, so I split them.  When you see セーターを着込んだ, it's not clear what to do with that.  In fact, the usual translation is just "he put on a sweater". "For warmth" is integral to common usage.

[1] is reported to be more common/natural than [2], but both are common. One Japanese speaker thought of [3] when pressed.  One barely believed [3] even when shown the dictionary entry.  That said, here's a modern example of the not-uncommon collocation スーツを着込む (with pic)
https://www.wws-channel.com/girls2/371601.html/attachment/tn00-57?pg=371601&mv

[4] Was "discovered" for me by gemini, who insisted I had missed it. The ngrams with 鎧 speak for themselves.  This has a classic/stiff feel, and even google will translate as "donned a suit of armor".  One Japanese speaker was surprised, but another was familiar with this usage.  Her intuition was that the expanded sense of 着込む was perhaps "wear extra clothing for protection" (from cold, swords, fire, bullets...).  Gemini also suggests "wearing of heavy/stuffy clothing".  Hence suits of armor, firemen's equipment, bulletproof vests(suggested directly by Japanese speaker). It's a special use case.
 
[5] is an independent derivation from the others, I think.  着る+込む (to do thoroughly/repeatedly), and appears in fashion for well-worn/pre-worn clothing.  Japanese speakers had no problem with this sense when shown examples. 着込めば着込むほど is a surprisingly common structure for "the more you wear X, the more it (develops character, etc)".  Lots of high-end clothing/fashion websites have this.

I don't know if it's us or jisho.org importing it, but the sentence attached to the formalwear sense (previously [2]) "an emissary from outer space" is reported to be just absolutely awful.

https://massif.la/ja/search?q=半面
https://context.reverso.net/translation/japanese-english/半面


Since it kind of got overshadowed before, I'm gonna put the BCCWJ data here once more:

"（４）BCCWJ (Counts in brackets are for 反面):
半面 has 250 counts in total (1069)

Sense one:
｛〘活用形＝連体形〙｝｛半面｝＝ 58 (456)
｛〘活用形＝連体形〙｝｛半面｝｛、｝＝ 45 (314)

Sense two:
｛、｝｛半面｝＝ 21 (117)
｛、｝｛半面｝｛、｝＝ 7 (68)
｛。｝｛半面｝＝  72 (100)
｛。｝｛半面｝｛、｝＝ 63 (62)
｛〘品詞＝連体詞〙｝｛半面｝＝ 42 (212)
Note that there may be a few missing for the counts with commas, as some of the sentences used , instead of 、.

That's 157 (45 + 7 + 63 + 42) out of 250 hits for conjunctive usage (I didn't use the counts for｛。｝｛半面｝and｛、｝｛半面｝on purpose, as they could technically include false hits for noun usage). That makes 62.8% of total usage.
Based on that I put the conjunctive senses first, as in the 反面 entry."

.

Both massif and reverso examples show that the conjunctive usage makes up the largest part of total usage.
In case it hasn't been noted yet, the BCCWJ data also supports this.


I get that it's currently only sankoku explicitly marking these senses, but I believe they're on the right track here.
Them also being treated as basically the same grammatical constructs in Brian's Waseda grammar textbook could technically serve as another reference here too.


I think if these two senses were to not lead, we also couldn't reasonably have these [rare] tags on the other senses. Since it's really a comparative rarity and not an absolute one.
And less stark than with 反面 at that.

I've been concerned about those proposed first two senses. After all, they're not in most references. I've come round to accepting them, although I'd be more comfortable if they didn't lead. I'll approve and leave open for a while.

No worries, I figured that something along those lines had happened.

＞So my [2] was the previous [2].  I only meant to say that the grammatical usage was far more common than all of these [rare] noun senses, and this term is not itself [rare]. Right now it looks like it is.

Thanks

＞So, yes, to be clear, my belief is that the grammatical senses of 反面 should be all be copy/pasted straight into this entry with xrefs (maybe just one way, from here to there).  They should probably be the leading senses.  

Good, that's what I had proposed as well. I didn't think the usage of conjunctive 半面 vs 反面 was marginal enough to be reduced to a hidden form and a note in 反面. I've put the two senses from my edit back and left Jims additions from the previous edit in place.

＞And who knows, we might even decide there is a subtle nuance meriting slight deviation in the glosses.  If not today, maybe tomorrow.

I actually had something like this in mind when I put "(but) at the same time" first in sense two. It's quite the minor change, but why not.


If this is approved, the incoming xref from 半顔 will need to be aligned.
And 半面 + the note would need to be removed from 反面.

｛、｝｛反面｝＝ 117
｛、｝｛反面｝｛、｝＝ 68
｛。｝｛反面｝＝ 100
｛。｝｛反面｝｛、｝＝ 62
Note that there may be a few missing for the counts with commas, as some of the sentences used , instead of 、.

I scrolled through about half of the 1000 hits and didn't really spot usage for case 1. This doesn't mean it doesn't exist, but it's certainly far less common than case 2 and 3.

Other notable counts:
｛〘品詞＝連体詞〙｝｛反面｝＝ 212
｛反面｝｛教師｝＝ 64

Unidic generally classes 反面 as a 名詞-普通名詞-副詞可能

「娘の結婚はうれしい━寂しくもある」
Koj: ②（副詞的に）反対の面から見て。「陽気な―、涙もろいところがある」

Though I believe they aren't quite sufficient.

.

Proposing a reordering of the senses, and an additional sense.

＞ Should we re-order the senses?
I think they should very much be reordered, but I'm not sure about that [rare] tag. 
In Anonさん's example 反面 is certainly a noun, forming a larger contrastive adverbial frame with ある面では.
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

I believe there are three cases to distinguish here, if we want to be precise:
Case 1: the plain noun 反面 (which does appear to be rather uncommon)
Case 2: grammaticalized 反面 as a plain conjunction/conjunctive adverb, i.e. a *自立語*
Case 3: grammaticalized 反面 as a conjunctive particle taking a 連体修飾語, i.e. a *付属語*

This paradigm is presented in（１）
Counts for the separate cases are presented in（２）



Furthermore I would assert that in case 3, 反面 is most naturally translated as "while", "though", and so forth, but not really as "on the other hand".
While in case 2 (this includes その反面), it is something like "on the other hand" or "then again"
Take this sentence from Brian's quoted site as an example (https://nihongo-online.jp/net/index.php?key=bbjgig41h-81):

「大学が決まって、新しい生活に期待する『反面』、不安も大きい。」
"I’ve decided on my university, and while I'm anticipating my new life, I also have big worries."

This is also substantiated by DOJG examples + translations
ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

While looking at the corpus data I noticed that case 2 uses of 反面 are often preceded by another conjunction or conjunctive particle.
If there is interest, I could also provide counts for various of those cases.

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

I've purposefully left out the 半面・反面 discussion here so as to not make it more confusing than it already is.
That should probably be the next step after this entry alone has been settled.

What's the best term to use if I'd like to ask someone about ice fishing in Japan?
https://gemini.google.com/share/5d5939fcc935

1. The Most Natural Term: ワカサギ釣り (Wakasagi-tsuri)

This literally means "Smelt fishing." In Japan, ice fishing is almost synonymous with catching Wakasagi (Japanese pond smelt). If you ask someone about "ice fishing," they will immediately assume you mean this.

2. The Descriptive Term: 氷上釣り (Hyōjō-zuri)
3. The Ambiguous Term: 穴釣り (Anazuri)
You may encounter this term, which translates to "hole fishing," but use it with caution.

I agree with you that the xref is not explanatory.  I've been trying to add it as one of our "use this instead" xrefs. 

Last night I had a table of a Japanese people and showed them photos of Canadian ice fishing, deliberately with a *giant* fish in the fisherman's hands, and I asked them what it was called.

*no one* produced "穴釣り".  Several suggested ワカサギ釣り while others pointed out the size of the fish.  "Can't be　ワカサギ釣り, the fish is too big". They did not have another word. (In fairness, we are in Hokkaido, where ワカサギ釣り is popular)

One Japanese person I gave "穴釣り" to, without any pictures, explained that she simply *guessed* that it was ice fishing.  Because where else do you need to make a hole?

ワカサギ釣り is just a better term for ice fishing in Japan most of the time. It's got to be at least 10x more popular on the ngrams(considering other senses).
ワカサギ釣り	63447	57.0%
わかさぎ釣り	21631	19.5%
穴釣り	26135	23.5%


If you look up "ice fishing" right now in jmdictdb, you will not find ワカサギ釣り.  If you object to the xref even on "use-instead" grounds, I'd advocate for putting "esp. ice fishing" back on ワカサギ釣り。 I don't actually know why this was changed on "on a frozen lake". "Ice Fishing" is a fairly well-understood term.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_fishing

I'm probably a bit more forgiving than Robin when it comes to marginal cross-references, but I really can't see that this one contributes anything useful to the meaning of the sense.

@@ -20 +19,0 @@
-<xref type="see" seq="2868119">ワカサギ釣り</xref>

I'm going to pitch at least this x-ref one more time.

I think most americans, at least, know what "ice fishing" is from media.  In Japan, 穴釣り seems like fishing 専門用語. Several people have not recognized it in any sense.  Today I found someone who did, having been invited once by a friend to do it.  It was ice fishing, and it was for smelt.  Smelt-fishing was the only activity he would use 穴釣り for.  Amusingly, he could not recall the name of the fish, but as soon as I said ワカサギ釣り his face lit up. Tip-of-the-tongue. But his friends used 穴釣り.

Maybe there is some regional preference (all the more reason to link the forms), but ワカサギ釣り is the more common term for the activity. It's 3 times more common than *every* sense of 穴釣り combined. Wikipedia xrefs it, and daijs gives it in the 穴釣り definition. It also has the upside of being unambiguous, which 穴釣り is not. We've already acknowledged the relevance of the link with "esp. for smelt".  It would be a very useful link for anyone looking for more information about this activity.

An additional reason for the xref is that the change from "esp. ice fishing" to "esp. on a frozen lake" makes ワカサギ釣り much harder to discover.  One might reasonably search for "ice fishing" when looking for this activity, but not "frozen lake".  At least the xref will get them back there.

A concession: Japanese people, when shown alaskan ice fishing with big fish, had no idea how to describe it. 氷(上)穴釣り seems best thought of niche fishing jargon. (Thought it is easy to find it in blogs and tourism marketing materials if you search "カナダ" "氷上穴釣り").  This is just not part of Japan's cultural repertoire, outside of smelt.

I think this is waseigo.  We just love "exoskeleton" too much to call it anything bland like "power/lift assist suit". Certainly Japanese products *are* translated this way, so if you want to make it a gloss you could.  But I don't think it's common English. 

Introduced by Japanese speaker when I explained what an "exoskeleton" was in a generic context (not for logistics, just "robot skeleton outside of body"). She was quite fixed on this term.

She reports 外骨格 could be used in SciFi contexts, but not in, say disability assistance or a workplace environment. 

Wikipedia gives a list of variants of varieties of exoskeleton: 強化服 強化スーツ ロボットスーツ 強化外骨格 外骨格
But specifically in nursing and cargo/logistics, this term:
医療・介護分野や物流・荷役など重量物を扱う作業で使われているものは、パワーアシストスーツあるいはアシストスーツ[3]と呼称されることもある。

Image search is largely carrying boxes.
Here's a boring logistics example(with pick of small woman lifting heavy object in workplace environment):

With tech development, パワーアシストスーツ is probably becoming more common than the ngrams suggest, and アシストスーツ is following along as the simplification.

Was going to xref with 氷上穴釣り (just added), they both seem fine.  Wikipedia used 氷上穴釣り in one article, not sure it matters.

EJ usefulness is handy, but shouldn't be the main focus of JE glosses.

It is a big advantage to be able to search for "ice fishing" and get this term.  I can see arguments for the elegance of the other phrasing, but it is a big loss to search "ice fishing" and not have this come up in the results.

This is *the* term for ice fishing in Japan.

See my final comments on 穴釣り for details.  But xref or no, I think this wording is more useful, and does not detract from the meaning.

錦大沼公園　ワカサギ釣り（にしきおおぬまこうえん　ワカサギづり）

Introduced to me as a winter activity.  It's specifically ice fishing for this particular fish, which must be particular to the lakes where it is caught in Northern Japan.  

Tourist and cultural activity.  Image search matches chatgpt's rough explanation: strong "ice fishing" implication, but in can occur in non-freezing conditions.

Vastly more common than any other word for  "ice fishing"
