It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.


癩

[edit]

The entry has a PUA character "", which may be ⿸疒哥. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 19:53, 3 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Is this character really not in CJK-C/-D/-E? -- Liliana 21:09, 3 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
Who knows? To really be sure what it is, you'd have to know what font the creator of the entry was using at the time, and possibly even which version of the font. You can guess, based on which character it was redirected to back in 2007, and on which equivalents there are to that in Min-Nan, but it would still be a guess. Given that different people may see different characters, depending on their font, I don't think it's safe to keep this as is. Chuck Entz (talk) 21:40, 3 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
 is U+E010, which is a PUA (private use area) character, which means 癩 needs to be deleted or moved, since  is not actually an encoded character. ⿸疒哥 (UTC-02663) is proposed for Extension G, as seen here and here (p. 127). — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 21:57, 3 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
A query for  in [1] suggests that it indeed is ⿸疒哥. —suzukaze (tc) 22:17, 3 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
@suzukaze-c Are you sure you're not using  (U+F5E7) instead of  (U+E010)? I tried using  (U+E010) and it didn't work. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 22:25, 3 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
(how the heck did i get f5e7) Please disregard, oops —suzukaze (tc) 22:27, 3 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
I think the creator of the pua meant 疒哥, but it ended up as ✊, due to font. I still want delete, after all, 赵孟兆页 got deleted. — This unsigned comment was added by Johnny Shiz (talkcontribs) at 22:45, 5 April 2016 (UTC).Reply
This has nothing to do with 赵孟𫖯. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 23:21, 5 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

赵孟兆页got deleted it was a meaningless frase. Johnny Shiz (talk)

It was deleted because it's a name with both given and family names, which violates WT:CFI, not because it's a meaningless phrase. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 02:25, 9 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
This character shows as a fist on my iPad and a an up pointing arrow on my computer. Johnny Shiz (talk) 14:22, 23 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
That's because it's a Private Use Area character, meaning that different fonts can have completely different things showing up. That's why this problem needs to be resolved. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 16:34, 23 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
I say Redirect to 癩⿸疒哥. Johnny Shiz (talk) 19:56, 23 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

{{look}}

Delete per nom; having entries for compounds built using PUA characters seems like a bad idea. I'm not convinced we should have redirects from Private Use Area characters (but a redirect, such as has already been deployed, would be preferable to keeping the term as a full entry). - -sche (discuss) 18:31, 23 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
