Thank you again! I really appreciate all of your thoughtful feedback.
Yeah, one way of measuring connectivity is counting how many definitions that a word appears in. Also, yeah, sometimes there are text artifacts in definitions and words, phrases, or abbreviations that don't add any value to the definition.
From research that I've done, this happens in online dictionaries (not often, but occasionally). I've done a lot of work to clean up the definitions in my dictionary and provide the top ranking definitions first, but some artifacts still slip through the cracks.
I really appreciate all of your great feedback and welcome any comments or discussion anytime! :)
