About this character:


I am adding a new entry with this character in it.
Whether or not it already has the meaning of "pedestal", this is a source:
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E4%B8%8C
Read it.

Editor:
1) You're not adding a new entry. You're proposing a different definition to a current entry:
丌 丌 [ji1] /"pedestal" component in Chinese characters/
That entry seems fine to me as it is.
Wenlin says "Picture of a base or pedestal."
M says 底座,用以托物的器具。
Other sources also support "pedestal".
Even your own source Wiktionary says 底座,用以托物的器具。
----> http://zh.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E4%B8%8C
So "table" seems to be a mistake.
Yes, it's a source. That doesn't mean it's correct.

2) 丌 is a character component.
As noted previously, we are primarily interested in words and expressions rather than character components.

3) We don't include Cantonese readings.

4) We are fairly sparing in cross-referencing. We don't point to synonyms, antonyms, similar characters etc.

5) Giving orders like "Read it" is a fairly efficient way of alienating yourself from fellow CC-CEDICT community members.

6) If you keep submitting suggestions that are not in keeping with CC-CEDICT's style, your future submissions may be deleted without comment.
