I'm planning to start using the Readings feature, now that the profile loading problem related to Readings has been fixed, and now that I've cleared the 3704 words in my Oblivion list.
This is the first article I look at. I'm quickly reminded about the other problem with the Readings feature...
女子高生 has been split up into 女子高 and 生. The first of these is fine and at least its meaning relates to the article, but look at 生... "vital / virile / lively"? 生 is on Chapter 4 of the kanji Lessons and shows a staggering 20 readings -- いく isn't even one of them! I couldn't even find いく in the first dictionary I tried, until I turned on the "show archaic words" setting! o.O

And it shows a different reading when you encounter it while doing the quiz?

This reading "なま" is a much more regular reading. However なま has a completely different meaning to いく, so you have to click an answer that doesn't make sense for it. And this still isn't the same as what the article actually uses -- せい.
After answering it, it shows it as いく again in the Encounter History.

In the Encounter History it even shows the "(arch)" archaic tag...
