kanjitab readings
On the ja-kanjitab documentation, it says this "o is for 送り仮名 (おくりがな, ​okurigana) that are abbreviated in the word. The readings used in "read as" categories are conservative and stick with the "core" readings that are as general as possible. Use these for cases like 入口 or 立入り."

 * Very interesting. I didn't have a direct hand in drafting that documentation, and frankly, I think it's advocating an incorrect approach.  In, for instance, categorizing that entry under Category:Japanese_terms_spelled_with_入_read_as_いり is a mistake, in my opinion, as the entry clearly uses the  character with a reading of iri, not i.  I see that Haplology added that description in , after I'd started using the template.  In my uses, I have consistently indicated the readings of the characters themselves, only using the   parameter to indicate okurigana that are in the entry, but not included in the kanji reading, essentially the opposite of what the template doc now says.  My memory is dim, but I vaguely recall a discussion somewhere about this, and I thought that the conclusion was to use   for okurigana in the headword but not in the kanji reading, as I have done so far -- but clearly Haplology must have had a different understanding.
 * do you have any recollection of where the thread(s) about okurigana is/are? &#8209;&#8209; Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 11:44, 21 November 2014 (UTC)
