::There also is some intended way to do this in Unicode itself with variation selectors. I'm pretty sure this is the way, but not sure enough that I would want to put in on a page: {{zh|s=敬︀|t=敬|labels=no}} (text: 敬︀, 敬) {{zh|s=麻|t=麻︀|labels=no}} (text: 麻, 麻︀). The details of which variation selector to use for what is different for every character. It's a simple enough system, and the ideal solution if you're confident, but I'm not confident. The "text" renditions above should also display as the appropriate trad and simp variants — they don't on my system; the template displays them distinctly simply because they are distinct Unicode sequences (post-normalization).

:::Chinese speaker (reader?) here, I usually gloss over the two different versions of the grass radical without noticing it. I've never heard of anyone caring about the difference. Unless we're discussing that radical specifically, I don't see the need to list both characters; if we ''are'' discussing that radical specifically, it might be better to use images, where the difference can be more clearly shown. I'm not firmly opposed to adding a merge=no option, but I haven't yet seen a case where it would be useful.

== Why are semicolons used instead of commas? ==
I had a momentary confusion on the article ''[[Captain of Destiny]]'' where it sort of looks like "literally" doesn't apply to the Chinese text. I've since edited it to clarify, but look at the [[Special:Permalink/1224678293|original version]] to see what I mean. — [[User:W.andrea|W.andrea]] ([[User talk:W.andrea|talk]]) 14:48, 1 May 2025 (UTC)
