肈 是 肇 的异体字/variant

----------
Editor:

I added some info on our wiki page about variants here:
https://cc-cedict.org/wiki/references#variant_of
The relevant part can be summarized as, if X is a variant that does not appear
in the TYGFHZB, then the trad and simp should both be X (see the 鳯 example)

This means our entry
肈 肇 [zhao4] /the start/the origin/
should be
肈 肈 [[zhao4]] /variant of 肇[zhao4]/
not
肈 肇 [[zhao4]] /variant of 肇[zhao4]/

Our entry
肇 肇 [zhao4] /at first/devise/originate/
is correct (though the definition certainly needs improvement)

-----

As for 李肇, it would help if you explain why you want to delete it. In this
case, I get it - it's a proper noun, he's not especially famous, and the entry
has an error anyways - but a comment would still help.

-----

As for 肇建, we don't really say "to create a building", and besides, the
definition makes the word sound mundane
