This looks good. You should add a title to your patch, like "Fix
detection of entities ending with a number" or "org-entities: Add some
entities".
Also, please capitalize the word after the colons.

I think they are all useful. Though, asciicirc already exists as circ.
Could you modify slightly your changelogs before I apply the patches?
Thank you.
