Ellipsis

I added a trans-title= to the citation you added, and also to the existing one. I got the translations from translate.google.com because I do not speak or even read Japanese. I notice that the Japanese texts are different but the translations are the same.

"秋元順子、古希に得意のダジャレ「あまり"コキ"使わないでください」" [The ending is just "..." "Three-point leader syndrome"]. SANSPO.COM. SANKEI DIGITAL Inc. 5 June 2017. Archived from the original on 9 March 2019. Retrieved 10 January 2018.
"語尾が「…」ばかり「三点リーダー症候群」　相手のせいにするズルさも" [The ending is just "..." "Three-point leader syndrome"]. NEWSポストセブン. 2021-01-15. Retrieved 2022-03-27.

Are the sources copies of each other but just written in different script? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 10:06, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for adding translations. The two sources are different articles, so the translation of the former is incorrect. --Kto2038 (talk) 10:39, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you. I've tried the translation again on my mobile and get Junko Akimoto, Pun who is good at Kouki "Please do not use too much" Koki "" so I must have made an error first time round. I will apply correction. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 12:15, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - Junko's comment is a pun of "古希" ("Koki"; 70 year-old celebrations. See [1].) and "コキ使う" ("こき使う", "Koki-tsukau"; To push someone around.). Literally, the translation of the title may be "Junko Akimoto used puns she was good at on Koki: "Please don't push me around too much."" or so. --Kto2038 (talk) 14:33, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - That makes more sense than the Google translation. I assume you will revise the article with it? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 14:47, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      - I updated the trans-title. Please edit it if needed. --Kto2038 (talk) 15:37, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
