A respondent suggests "screwing" might match the, er, register of the Japanese a bit better.

I think it is fine as it is.

please take away the " [XXX]", it's already tagged as such

Please don't. We're keeping the [XXX] notation in sentences, as well as as tags, until a filtering system is in place here (and hopefully in WWWJDIC).

humn...there´s no such notation in any of the translations, nor is it in any other sentence that should have it...at least of those i stumbled upon. also there is no recommendation to add this notation if contributing any sentence with sexual content.

i suggest to remove it, because of the above reasons.

I sent blay_paul a message in January, asking about the [XXX] annotation but received no answer. I imagine one could use this to filter out sentences with that annotation.

There are, however, currently only 28 sentences with this annotation but around 60 that are tagged with the XXX tag and more that have neither.

Thus there is no use for it unless it's added to all possible sentences. With the ambiguity and foreseeable disagreement of which sentences it should be applied to, we should keep it simple and remove this annotation, just as we would any other.

The [XXX] is here because WWWJDIC needs it. But I'll ask Jim Breen if they can be removed now.

WWWJDIC doesn't use the [XXX] at all. As Paul said in an earlier comment "We're keeping the [XXX] notation in sentences, as well as as tags, until a filtering system is in place here (and hopefully in WWWJDIC)."

I suspect Paul was planning some sort of filter for rude language.

Except we're not...

Neither in policy nor practice (see my earlier comment).

Can I get a policy ruling from Trang? It appears the Jim doesn't need this, and filtering can perhaps better be done on tags, so my personal opinion is that we should delete the [XXX]. There only appear to be ten or so, and they are mainly tagged already.

BTW: it would be nice if the tags were displayed in the search results as well, currently you have to click on a sentence to see the tags.

Okay so we can remove the [XXX].

By the way, for those who would be interested, tags are exported here every Saturday:

It's not yet mentioned on the downloads page though.

XXX removed, 'til fixed.
