Helpful titles for Vinaya rules

[wcang]

Some of the Vinaya rules can use more helpful titles. For example, in https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk21, the title Na sakthni doesn't convey the purpose of the rule. This ticket is created to propose helpful titles and correct some of the mislabelled titles. Where possible, parallels are also suggested/corrected.

Rule	Title
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk21	Sitting cross-legged
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk23	Fidgeting
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk28	Sticking out the tongue
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk39	Gulping
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk55	Clasping Knees
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk56	Sitting cross-legged
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-pn13/lzh/taisho	Settlement
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bi-vb-ss6	Staying alone
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bi-vb-ss7	Ordaining without permission
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bi-vb-ss9	Crossing the river alone

https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk28 is a parallel of https://suttacentral.net/pli-tv-bu-vb-sk49 and the like.
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk55 is a parallel of Bu Sk 65
The title for https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-sk56 is wrong, thus is not a parallel of Bu Sk 65.

The title for https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bu-vb-pc62 is a duplicate of Pc 61. It should be "Intentionally making a monk anxious".

I've added all these in a suttacentral/bilara-data#5200

They might still need German and other translations. @sabbamitta - can you check please?

[sabbamitta]

I think I have translated all the German ones in Bilara with the help of the above list. Thank you for adding them!

[sabbamitta]

I just checked, and the only other language that has some Vinaya name translations is Chinese: https://github.com/suttacentral/bilara-data/tree/unpublished/translation/zh/site/name/vinaya

Just thinking: the same names that have been added to the Bu and Bi vibhangas should also be added to the two patimokkhas—they have the exact same names (going to do this for German …).

It's severely incomplete and I pretend not to know it.

[ayya-vimala]

Thank you @sabbamitta - I have added the PMs too to the PR.
@wcang - I noticed that the same issues appear in other texts translations too, so I will leave this issue open to add more when you find them. Thanks so much for all your help! I hope we can make our presentation of the Chinese texts better and more accessible in this way!

[wcang]

Yes, I noticed a few others, but I was lazy. Just wanted to get the Taisho numbering done before the vassa. I agree with Ayya. Let's keep this open.

[ayya-vimala]

We're just very happy with anything you can do! Your vassa retreat is very important and no need to rush to get things finished!

For the nuns, we have a similar duplication, namely in Pc5 and Pc20. Does the same apply here?

The vibhanga is empty except for the opening verse for which I don't know how to map to individual rules.
However, in https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mg-bi-pm/lzh/taisho, we have a clearer picture.

Pc 5
若比丘尼。故奪畜生命波夜提。

Intentionally Killing Living Creatures

Pc 20

若比丘尼。故令他比丘尼起疑悔須臾不樂。是因緣不異波夜提

Intentionally making a nun anxious

You're right, Ayya. Pc 20 is wrong. However, the parallel info seems to be right.

[sabbamitta]

Thank you, so I'll change the translation accordingly.

Rule	Title
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mi-bi-vb-pc200	Adorning other ladies (or something like that)
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mi-bi-vb-pc205	Dressing like a sex worker
https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mi-bi-vb-pc206	Dressing like a lay woman

I can't decide if https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mi-bi-vb-pc204 should be titled as "Adorning like a wife". Not sure where the wife part came from. 治身 here is definitely different from Confucian concept of 治身. Classical Chinese can be confusing. Why didn't I study Chinese back in high school? Oh, I hated Chinese (the language).

https://suttacentral.net/lzh-mi-bi-vb-pc200 clearly doesn't mean dressing like a lay woman. 與自莊嚴有何等異 here probably means "How is this any different from adorning oneself?". So, it can only mean that the nuns were beautifying other ladies. I can't get the exact definition of 莊母 because Google leads to some grammatical stuff. Probably it means female beautician. Those nuns were being criticized for acting like beauticians.
