(headw1)	強情
(kana1)	ごうじょう
(pos1)	n
(comment)	強情(P); 剛情 【ごうじょう】 (adj-na,n) obstinacy; stubbornness 
Hands down, this entire expression deserves a P demarcation as it is heard so very often as with 石頭, which does have a P.
BTW, love the 金槌頭 【かなづちあたま】 (n) hard-headed; stubborn entry as I know this will be quite useful. Sorry to be "ad hoc" but will be so unil I 軌道に乗る.

(headw1)	大人しい
(kana1)	おとなしい
(pos1)	n
(comment)	大人しい 【おとなしい】 (adj) obedient; docile; quiet, Kanji which I have never seen. What I see instead is 音無し, which is very commonly used.
Also the reading of 大人しい as おとなしい looks flat-out wrong. Help! Needless to say, 大人しい is not in my list.

(comment)	守る(P); 護る(iK) 【まもる】 (v5r,vt) to protect; to obey; to guard; to abide (by the rules)
Entire entry deserves a P demarcation, as it is beyond common in everyday speech. Beyond common!

(comment)	犬小屋 【いぬごや】 (n) kennel 
Not at all important, but ....
Just out of curiosity I entered this to see just how thorough Edict is (yes, I have the MS Language pack and can type Kanji). 
Not important but it really means "dog house" and that is what the Japanese refer to their houses as, when they are self-depreciating and unfortunately accurate. Thought that here in the late night might be interesting.
