Template talk:cmn-pron/hom

I like the edit button. But wouldn't it be better to link to the actual homophone page, i.e. Template:Pinyin-IPA/hom/... ? Wyang (talk) 06:29, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for reminding me, I didn't notice that error. But now it's fixed. --kc_kennylau (talk) 06:53, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I think displaying the 'edit' button on the right probably looks better. What do you think? Wyang (talk) 07:00, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * At first I put it on the left because I thought it was impossible, but now I fixed it. --kc_kennylau (talk) 07:07, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * It's not aligned now... Wyang (talk) 07:09, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * fixed. --kc_kennylau (talk) 07:13, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Excellent! Wyang (talk) 07:14, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Please do tell me if you have any other problem in the future. --kc_kennylau (talk) 07:16, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

I am impressed. I have a plan of rewriting (Module:zh-hanzi-box) to make it work like ja-kanjitab (i.e. automatically extracts characters from title) and combining it with, to make it call stored character glosses. The end result would probably be like User:Wyang/僥幸 (see code). Do you think this is a good idea and if so, would you be interested? :) Wyang (talk) 07:23, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * So the template usage will be the exact same as what is in your code? --kc_kennylau (talk) 07:29, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Possibly, but without the glosses (instead call from stored glosses). I'm not exactly sure though. Perhaps instead we could use the conversion tables in Module:zh/data and make it work like the Chinese Wikipedia, with only exceptional cases labelled in the template, and the correctly converting ones (like 文化, 學生) completely unlabelled (eg. without any parameters, doing simp-trad conversions and glosses through Module:zh/data).

 * But one character has thousands of meanings. --kc_kennylau (talk) 07:42, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * The main meanings will be given in the stored glosses, and are overridable. For example, 文 may have "written language; literary; civilian", and 化 "change, transform; influence; melt"; 學 "learn, learning; school", 生 "born; grow; life; alive; unripe; unfamiliar; student, pupil".
