| Comment | Dear professor Breen,
My sincerest apologies. It seems the cross-reference I've submitted along with this entry has the wrong kanji for 準. For some reason my IME (SCIM with Anthy) prioritised a different rare version of the character (凖, different radical on the top-left). I did not notice this upon submitting the entry. The correct reference is 準惑星. |

| Current Entry | 冥王星 [めいおうせい] /(n) (See 矮惑星) Pluto (dwarf planet)/ |
| Headword 1 | 冥王星 |
| Reading 1 | めいおうせい |
| Part-of-speech | n |
| English 1 | (See 準惑星) Pluto (dwarf planet) |
| Reference | http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/羣�������
..which references: http://www.scj.go.jp/ja/info/kohyo/pdf/kohyo-20-t35-1.pdf ..which states: 上記を踏まえつつ、社会的要請などから dwarf planet の日本語での表記が必 要な場合は、「準惑星」と表記することを推奨する。IAU 決議直後に用いた 直訳的仮訳である「矮惑星」は推奨しない。 |
| Comment | If the Japanese Wikipedia is anything to go by the 冥王星 entry might be better of cross-referenced to 準惑星 instead of 矮惑星. The former being the preferred term in Japanese as far as the Science Council of Japan is concerned. This was apparently decided in the aftermath of the demotion of Pluto to "Dwarf planet" status.
This puts the Pluto entry on equal footing with the two other dwarf planets, Ceres and Eris. |

| Headword 1 | 縦座標 |
| Reading 1 | たてざひょう |
| Part-of-speech | n |
| English 1 | ordinate |
| Cross-reference | 横座標 |
| Reference | http://hiramatu-hifuka.com/onyak/butu-ta.html
Google auto-translates this word as "ordinate" when one clicks the "Translate this page" link (to obtain the original URL above and its associated "translate" link, enter a Google search on "たてざひょう", *including* the quotes). |
| Comment | This entry is a synonym to 縦軸, which already appears in the dictionary but has a different pronunciation. Both are mathematical terms meaning "vertical axis".
The suggested cross-reference headword (which means "abscissa" or "horizontal axis") is a counterpart or antonym, not a synonym. The cross-reference headword already appears in the dictionary; apparently its partner was omitted, however (until now). |

| Comment | >I think you answer the question below.
I may have, but I'm not exactly sure if that means the amendment was approved or rejected... According to English Wikipedia, KJI is: 1) *Chairman* of Defense Commission 2) *Supreme Commander* of the Korean People's Army 3) *General Secretary* of the Workers' Party of Korea Japanese Wiki has these titles as: 1) 民主主義人民共和国国防委員会*委員長* 2) 朝鮮人民軍*最高司令官* 3) 朝鮮労働党*総書記* (His father is "永遠の主席".) "金総書記" = 1.4 million hits "金委員長" = 44000 hits "金最高司令官" = 1 hit I would say the 'chairman' entry should go away as it refers to him in a different capacity... Not that it really matters in NK, but whatever. |
