Question by Suzukaze-c
= Template:zh-obsolete ("may be preserved in fossilised compounds and expressions")? . —Suzukaze-c◇◇ 06:18, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I think we can insert an additional parameter to Template:zh-obsolete to make it display:

Obsolete sense as a standalone character in Modern Standard Chinese — may be preserved in fossilised compounds and expressions or other varieties of Chinese
 * This template can then be deleted once that is done. KevinUp (talk) 06:25, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Hm, they are indeed not the same then. (This seems to be the same issue as User_talk:Wyang.) It might be problematic if the outward appearance of zh-obsolete does not change though. The difference in tooltip text might be too subtle. —Suzukaze-c◇◇ 06:32, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
 * On another note, I don't think we should be using the same symbol as . It makes it very confusing, especially on mobile, where tooltips don't work. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 07:20, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
 * (TBH I've had mild doubts about whether it is good to ① use tooltips and ② occupy the template name of †. —Suzukaze-c◇◇ 07:28, 6 September 2018 (UTC))
 * I made some changes based on the suggestions given. Single quotes were added to 'stand-alone character' for emphasis. Can we create some sort of category for entries using this template? Also, entries using needs to be placed under a certain category. KevinUp (talk) 07:48, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I think we now have ① † (alias for ), ② (alias for  which uses the  symbol) and ③, which uses the scribe symbol . All three can be used for single-character Chinese entries but ② and ③ are not to be used for compound words. KevinUp (talk) 08:01, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
