(headw1)	自己矛盾
(kana1)	じこむじゅん
(comment)	自己矛盾 【じこむじゅん】 (n) self-contradiction [G][GI][S] 
自己矛盾 【じごむじゅん】 (n,vs) self-contradiction; paradox; antinomy [V][G][GI][S] 
These should probably be combined. I think jigomujun is just flat out wrong, I get no Google hits with "自己矛盾 じごむじゅん" or "じごむじゅん" searches. So I propose combining them into:
自己矛盾 【じこむじゅん】 (n,vs) self-contradiction; paradox; antinomy
removing the jigomujun reading altogether.
