瑪杰街

[edit]

@Suzukaze-c 街 might be inseparable from 瑪杰, but it should still be separated by a space. Also, is the street name worth adding as an entry? — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 06:32, 10 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

I would prefer a hyphen TBH, but {{zh-x}} makes that difficult. My preference is hyphen > nothing > space, but I'll add ..
I've also added 孖結街, so I made 瑪杰街 a link as well. I'm not sure how well-attested 瑪杰街 is, so I haven't actually created 瑪杰街 yet. (Unless you're asking about whether streets are worth adding to the dictionary in the first place, in which case I'm not sure, but I've done so already...) —Suzukaze-c
@Suzukaze-c: There are some street names like Main Street and Wall Street, but they seem to have some degree of notability and widespread usage. I'm unsure about 孖結街 or 瑪杰街 (or even Market Street). — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 06:40, 10 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Hm, I think you're right; most of these seem to have some sort of figurative meaning. Perhaps it could be discussed at the Tea Room (or delete them now? 🤷). —Suzukaze-c 06:46, 10 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Suzukaze-c: To the Tea Room it goes... — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 06:56, 10 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Metaknowledge :p —Suzukaze-c 05:08, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

@suzukaze-c: I hadn't seen this... I'm loathe to delete 孖結街, but at the same time, there are probably a couple dozen streets in San Francisco alone with standard Chinese names, and of course then they all have English names — it's a real slippery slope, and it doesn't seem suited to a dictionary's mission. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 06:22, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
