Ridiculous claims by a Shin woman who married a Belgian commoner and created and registered a new last name, "Shin de Pyeongsan." Korea was not a hereditary feudal country since 1392. All officials were selected based on their performance on the Gwageo exam. There were no titles and fiefdom passed down through families. As such, no notable Pyeongsan Shins are found after Shin Sunggyeon in 900s! The most powerful families in late Joseon were the Andong Kims, Pungyang Jos, and Yeongheung Mins. Pyeongsan Shins peaked in early Goryeo, pre-1000s. It is a good family, but this article is so pretentious, as to approach ridiculousness. Unless you slef police this article, I will have to contact other editors and really work on this, for the good of other Korean families. Krusader6 ( talk) 20:49, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
I think the name of the page should be changed to "Pyeongsan Shin clan". While the Revised Romanization of 신 is "Sin", the surname is most commonly romanized, both in historical sources and in day-to-day life, as "Shin". Maria0215 ( talk) 19:08, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
Hi, the rules that determine how we name pages can be found in WP:ARTICLETITLE. The most important policy is WP:COMMONNAME; whichever name most commonly appears in reliable sources.
For this article, we take the entire clan's name as a whole, not split it into parts and determine which is common for each part.
Upon researching in Google Books, what gets the most results is "Pyeongsan Shin clan" (167 results). This is a strange case because the current province is in North Korea and is spelled Pyongsan, but that doesn't matter to us (ctrl+f "stalingrad" in the common name link). Next up is Pyongsan Shin (24 results). Pyongsan Sin gets only 1 result to me. Will rename page toobigtokale ( talk) 09:03, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
