Potentially silly question re: User Synonyms

This might be way too specific and silly of a problem, but here goes…

I have accidentally added some “user synonyms” (typos, I hit the wrong button) while doing reviews using the Tsurukame app. This has happened in the middle of review sessions where I thought to myself “It’s ok, I’ll remember where I added that and go remove it when I’m done.”… I think you know where this is going.

I believe I still have some random ones added but I have forgotten which ones. Is there a way to show all items that have user synonyms added or something?? Going through each item would take way too long and I can’t think of any way to narrow it down :melting_face:

I don’t know about Tsurukame but if you use the web site the Item Inspector script can do this. The procedure:

  • Install Item Inspector if not already done.
  • In the table Selector dropdown select the All Wanikani Items table. Then a table with all WK items appears.
  • In the temporary filter dropdown select the Advanced Search filter. Then a dialog appears.
  • In the Item Type multi box select everything.
  • In the Used In multi box deselect everything and then select the User Synonym option.
  • In the Search Terms input box type in a * (asterisk character)
  • Click save

This will select and display a table with all items that have a user synonym.

Thank you!! This is exactly what I was hoping for. :raising_hands:

Edit: All sorted! And for your entertainment, two typos that had accidentally become synonyms…

  • aoig (sign)
  • assokiatiok (association)

Thank you so much for the guide @prouleau, it was driving me crazy knowing they were there somewhere but not knowing how to find them!
