::Actually, it seems to me that Wiktionary is a more suitable place for articles on individual kanji. And, lo and behold, it does seem to have articles on them (and supports Unicode titles, so they appear properly). So we should probably be linking kanji to their articles on Wiktionary.

The Kyoiku kanji page links all the kanji to the wiktionary. Seems like a good system, and this page could borrow from that page when building the links to save time. |

Kanji wikified
I think it is or it will become common policy to wikify kanji. At the time being, there are no articles yet for most of them, for some, redirects exist to their meaning (which is probably misleading). Some articles on the actual kanji exist though, and very few of these can be instructive on what such articles can and should contain and what makes it worth to have them in wikipedia and not in wiktionary, e.g. ethymology, stroke order, etc. (see also: A).

- There's a problem with wikilinking kanji, though: the English Wikipedia only supports ISO Latin-1 in article titles, not Unicode, so they all end up with titles like Æœ´ and similar gibberish. If we're going to have kanji/han character articles, there needs to be some sort of standard for titles. The Manual of Style for Japan-related articles doesn't say anything about this yet. — Gwalla | Talk 19:22, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
