Simplification to 示[edit]

Title added. —Nils von Barth (nbarth) (talk) 01:10, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Because the simplification of Chinese characters is not scientific, 祭 is not expected to be simplified to 示 in every character. In fact, only the 祭 in is simplified to 示, all others like , are not. So the words "Simplification: 示, as part of compounds" are not quite true. Other examples like this can be seen at w:Debate_on_traditional_and_simplified_Chinese_characters#Pro-Traditional_characters_7. --Wihwang 05:30, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, thanks!
I’ve added “some” (simplification in some compounds) to clarify this.
