:::: [[WT:ELE]] and [[WT:AEN]] ever did and would change. I'm afraid you don't understand how vital it is for wikis to experiment with new ways for such changes for ever. Yeah, WT might be most conservative in this perspective. --[[User:KYPark|KYPark]] ([[User talk:KYPark|talk]]) 06:07, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

: There are two etymologies here. The western one traces back to borrowing from Hebrew {{term|קָנֶה|tr=qane|lang=he}}, or from some other Semitic language, into Greek and Latin, and from them throughout the languages of Europe. The eastern one is from Chinese, borrowed with or without the character [[罐]] (the character {{l|ja|缶}} doesn't belong here, since it means "jar", not "cane" or "pipe"). The Middle Chinese form is transliterated as "*guǎn", and the Semitic(contracted; show full)

Reverting such an action as that, which you well know is not permitted, was not "useless", as you claim, nor done "illegitimately". If I learn of you repeating this kind of action, I will block you for a relatively short period of time and request that you be blocked for a year before the Wiktionary community. Consider yourself warned. --[[User:Metaknowledge|Μετάknowledge]]<small><sup>''[[User talk:Metaknowledge|discuss]]/[[Special:Contributions/Metaknowledge|deeds(contracted; show full)

 Moral summing up
|}

{| align=center
| valign=top |
 The case that Metaknowledge [[edge]]d or [[wedge]]d 
 
 such a trivial ''definitional'' experiment into 
 such a crucial ''etymological'' discussion is 
 
 to ''make a spear out of a pin'' ([[針小棒大]]), and  
 to ''see a mosquito and draw a sword'' ([[見蚊拔劒]]),
 
 and suspected of a filibuster in itself either 
 
 to muddle it up ([[뒤범벅]]), or 
 to water it down ([[물타기]]). 
 
 No one else yet blames him for his indecency.
 So worried is unlikely communal self-cleanup!
