Wish List

This is a set of wishlist items for the various projects. There is also an old wishlist page. Some of the items in this section have been copied from it.

Note that the groupings overlap - changes to JMdict/EDICT will sometimes be related to a change in JMdictDB and possibly have an inpact on WWWJDIC, etc.

Please feel free to add items. Use the "discussion page" (tab at the top) to discuss matters.

JMdictDB database Project

Insert a wish.

JMdict/EDICT

  • change many of the entities to attributes (see the archives of the mailing list)
  • once the step above is in place, convert "abbr" tags to become a class of cross-reference.
  • revise the "vs" family of PoS tags. "vs" itself will be confined to サ変名詞, "vs-s" will stay for the 愛する variety,and "vs-i" will be used for 為る/する and all expressions ending in する.
  • Give Dictionary Codes a proper home to link to.

These have been added by Jean-Luc Leger from the old list:

  • Have a way to identify gairaigo. Lsource tag is great but most gairaigo are from english and they don't have a Lsource tag.
    • maybe allow an empty lsource for english gairaigo ?

  • Have a tag for proper names
    • could be a new PoS
  • Add more fields
  • Give its yomigana to each kanji of the Kanji part
    • biggest problem being due to multiple Readings and/or Kanji parts
  • Separate compound words and expressions into their component (with a link to its entry when possible)
    • maybe by extending the xref system

WWWJDIC

  • have links open a new tab/window (option) - suggested by Hendrik.

JMNEdict/ENAMDICT

KANJIDIC

Some suggestions from Jean-Luc Leger:

  • Add a status to each reading : joyo reading (or split by grade), old/obsolete/obscure reading ...
  • Separate the few gairaigo readings from on/kun-yomi

Others from the old wish-list page:

  • add White Rabbit card numbers (Todd Aug 06)
    • (I have the data and should really work this in. JimBreen 02:48, 21 August 2010 (UTC))
  • add kokuji entity (XML) (Todd Aug 06)
  • Add kan/go/tou/kan'you tags to the on readings (Ben Bullock Aug 06)
  • Fix up the 47 DeRoo classification codes (Ben Bullock Oct 06)
  • Mark the kokuji properly, instead of just a comment in the meaning field. (Jean-Luc Leger March 2005)
