Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Kyūjitai. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20140823074547/http://yurara.kir.jp/material/kanji.html to http://yurara.kir.jp/material/kanji.html

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

This message was posted before February 2018.

• If you have discovered URLs which were erroneously considered dead by the bot, you can report them with this tool.
• If you found an error with any archives or the URLs themselves, you can fix them with this tool.

Regarding the section Traditional characters that may cause problems displaying, while it is true that the 62 kyūjitai kanji mentioned map to CJK compatibility ideographs when converted from JIS X 0213, this is only done to preserve round-trip compatibility with the set which would otherwise be lost if the characters were mapped directly to their appropriate CJK unified ideographs. In the context of original unicode data, we should instead be using variation sequences to get the kyūjitai kanji. I have already made a few edits to the page to this effect, however the article now needs to be updated to reflect the fact that normalization will not merge variation sequences and that, provided an appropriate font is available, there shouldn't be any issues displaying these kanji.

Would it be accurate to describe kyūjitai as broadly equivalent to Traditional Chinese, with regard to kanji forms? ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │^{Tala við mig} 06:57, 8 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
