How do i/ Is there a way to. take the on yomi and kun yomi reading and automatically input them into my rtk 1 anki deck? I wud like to glance at them each time i do a kanji. Also how can i suspend all the kanji after the end of rtk 1 (2042) in my deck...as i dnt rlly intend to do rtk3 ? do i have to go thru them one by one or is there an auto way... if u havent realised im lazy i like automatic. LOL so any help guys? lastly  how do u guys go thru cards? BY that i mean whatsu r mental process do u pass a card if u get it perfectly correct or if u are close or if u have failed it 4 times today and just wana try tomoro.
edit: or actually not all the readings preferably the most common word the kanji comes in along with its reading..

Oh dear god.

OT: If you find a source for the readings in spreadsheet/csv format (there are many) then you can just import them into new fields in Anki. I know I posted a deck here with everything you suggested, so maybe try that. You can suspend the cards just by sorting them by index and selecting from 2043 to 3007 (they should be sorted like that already)

Hi Kevester.

I believe you can use the Kanji Damage Anki decks (search the Anki Shared decks for them).

These decks are a variant method of RTK that include onyomi and kunyomi information along with mnemonics for them, however I believe it only covers 1800~ kanji.

No problem.

I'm sure some of the available shared decks for it have a field with the Heisig number, so if it's not sorted how you want you can always sort it by that field.

Yeah, Excel is really handy for sorting those fields. If one deck has Heisig numbers and the other deck doesn't, sort by kanji first, copy over the stuff you want to copy, then re-sort by the Heisig numbers.

Just remember to re-encode the resulting file as a UTF-8 (Unicode 8 bit) tab-delimited text file before trying to import into Anki. You may need to open it up in text editor like EditPadPro (which I like a lot, but it's not free) to convert it back to UTF-8, then save it.

Create a blank deck with the fields you want, and just import the sheet that way. Import tries to match up the fields in the spreadsheet to your deck, so you either need enough fields in the deck, or you need to consolidate/remove the excess fields in the spreadsheet. EditPadPro has RegEx search and replace, so you can copy 2 columns of data out of a spreadsheet, do a RegEx search for \t (tab) and replace it with <br></br> or a space or two, or whatever. Then just copy/paste the resulting mess into one column of your spreadsheet.

If you want to automate this stuff, the more you know about stuff like RegEx, programming, etc., the better off you are. There are a ton of ways to automate all of this.
