隱身

I couldn't confirm the existence of this word in Japanese. --Anatoli ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 13:49, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

I found a couple of works related to Shinto and Japanese mythology that use 隱身 in Japanese (not read おんしん but かくりみ, though): [1] [2] [3]. Whym (talk) 01:18, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

@Whym thanks. With this reading it makes more sense, it's also in 隱身@Weblio.jp. Apparently it's a Shinto term. Could you improve the definition, please? --Anatoli ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 01:36, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

Our favorite IP strikes again. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:26, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

Does this have to do with the above entry or related entries? What were the edits?

@Whym, @Eirikr I'll leave the above entry in your capable hands. :) --Anatoli ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 05:26, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

(edit conflict)If you look at the edit history, it was created by 2.220.125.207 back in 2012. Any time you find something in our Japanese entries that's wrong in ways that just don't make sense, the odds are it traces back to this same person. Chuck Entz (talk) 06:38, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

• Note also that the initial character here, 隱, is the obsolete kyūjitai for 隠. As such, the entry at 隱身 should only ever be a stub entry marked as {{alternative spelling of|隠身}}, directing readers to the lemma entry content at 隠身.

FWIW, I find evidence for both the readings kakurimi (google books:"隠身"+"かくりみ", 81 hits) and kakuremi (google books:"隠身"+"かくれみ", 28 hits). ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 06:22, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

@Atitarev, Eirikr I tried my best at 隠身 and 隱身. Quotations are not yet added. Whym (talk) 13:34, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

• I haven't done much research on this, but 隱形 (隠形) probably has the same problem. Whym (talk) 13:34, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

@Whym Thank you! I see you're using {{ja-altread}}. I haven't used it before @Eirikr has some other way to put together terms with multiple reading but I don't remember exactly. Just by repeating the headword on two lines? --Anatoli ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 13:40, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

@Eirikr what is to be done with this entry? - -sche (discuss) 01:58, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

• Thank you, -sche, this had fallen off my radar. I just simplified and formatted the entry, leaving it as a stub pointing to the modern kanji spelling of 隠身. If that suffices, please strike this from the RFV list. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │^{Tala við mig} 07:08, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
