Just to double check, can I click “Add to known words” to my personal deck that is not published? Are there any consequences? I used default layout with dictionary builds so I expected the known system would initiate but there are many not registering.
Hey!
Yeah that’s fine, it works the same way regardless of whether the deck is private or published. There are no consequences aside from those words being added to your known words.
I just took a look at the deck from your screenshot and noticed that all the cards are at a high rank, in that case you do need to add the words through the above shown menu first as it only automatically adds newly learned lessons, not items being reviewed.
You can think of it as one-time-only backfilling your known words list and in the future you won’t have to bother with it anymore 
@Tomato finished writing knowledge base articles about the known words system a bit ago. I’ll try to publish the articles asap so that there’s some proper documentation about the feature
Hello. I want to hibernate some cards but this is happened.
It seems that I can’t get the parameters right but I don’t know what it was.
Any solution with this?
Hey!
Did you select the cards that you wish to hibernate? You can select them all at once if you click the checkbox in the table header.
I have tried and its work!
Thanks a lot 
Is there a way to filter decks based on known cards? I just want to hibernate ‘known’, but I don’t see a tag status to do this…just checking if I’m missing anything before I manually do this.
Edit: I found it
Is there a way to automatically set words to be hibernated in other decks once you learn them in another, instead of having to manually find the words you just learned in other decks?
I’m afraid that there currently is no way to do that due to the inner workings of Kitsun being so dynamic (templates, template fields, main values etc). Technically speaking it might be possible but the query would become extremely heavy and slow and would need to run anytime any user completes a lesson.
Another problem that could arise is that some decks teach other aspects of a language, so if you have a deck focused on writing (as an example) you probably would not want it to auto hibernate when you finish a lesson in another deck.
Thank you for the quick reply!
I guess I’ll just write it down somewhere to remember to hibernate them manually every week or so. It really isn’t too much of a hassle.
In the mean time I will keep thinking about ways to solve this problem as it would certainly give a lot of convenience to the user if we could implement it somehow.
the one solution I could think of is just to add a little extra bit when words are introduced during lessons that only shows up if they’re in your known words, and then from there you can choose to hibernate them with the option that is already there. But you would know about the feasibility of that much more than I would.
Hey Neicudi!
Has there been any update in regards to implementing the WK API? I am about to go through the 10k Kitsun Optimized deck and realized I will need to manually mark each thing I know from WK as “known”. While I don’t think the process will be too bad (I am still learning the way tags work and whatnot), it would be way easier if Kitsun could do it automatically, but I haven’t seen any updates about adding this feature and it’s been a year since it was last mentioned.
Thank you for all your hardwork!
No progress on that front yet, but there is a reverse WK deck in the community centre that you can use to mark vocab as known. It has level tags for easy filtering 
Just a small tip, but you can select ranges of cards by holding shift when clicking on a checkbox on the cards management page. It will automatically select all cards between that clicked one and the previously checked one (or top). After that you can mark them all as known in one action.

Thanks for the replies guys! I have another question: When marking words as known, should decks be removing those words from lessons, but keeping them in reviews? Should it be removing them from both? Or neither??
I have marked a lot of words as known, but still have those words coming up in lessons for the 10K Japanese deck… I thought the point of marking words as known was to avoid this, while keeping them in reviews if you want to review them anyway? And to remove from both you would hibernate the cards?
Or is it an either/or situation where you either get the words in both lessons AND reviews, or neither… I want to review words I am learning from other decks or places like WK, but I do not want them in my lessons queue as it takes up a ton of time trying to hurry through them to get to words I don’t actually know yet.
Thanks again!
You have to filter your ‘known’ cards to ‘hibernate’ in your deck manager (see post 17 for screen shot). This will prevent them from coming into your lesson/review for that particular deck.
The above should solve what you are looking for but in case not aware, you can hotkey hibernation status. So in case you have not marked as ‘known’ yet, you can set to hibernate and filter in manager → set to known after your session. Would be cool if we could hibernate/known at same time, I had that feature request because seeing it in the lesson versus scrolling manager can be convenience.
Quick question on the personal known word database. Is there any way to export this list as text, or preferably a spreadsheet?
Same thing with individual decks…it would be nice to be able to export selected items of a deck (preferably via filtering to select known words) and export this out. Is this currently a feature? If not, I would like to propose it for consideration as a new feature. Thanks!!
I’m guessing this is for jpdb? I imagine Kitsun someday could do the same thing as jpdb if they choose to. The known system already exists along with wordlist import but assume there is some auto-parse system to build the title lists to this extent that they did. The Kitsun interface is more mature though, would be great it they did it.
I would use it for jpdb…but also I would like to be able to simply have a list and registry that I can reference, that isn’t locked into the Kitsun ecosystem only. It would be much better to have an export function than manually creating this.
You can import…just curious if you can also export.
