As you may have heard, we at the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team recently made some changes to the assessment scale, including the addition of a new level. The new description is available at WP:ASSESS.
Each WikiProject should already have a new C-Class category at Category:C-Class_articles. If your project elects not to use the new level, you can simply delete your WikiProject's C-Class category and clarify any amendments on your project's assessment/discussion pages. The bot is already finding and listing C-Class articles.
Please leave a message with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme. This scheme should allow the team to start producing offline selections for your project and the wider community within the next year. Thanks for using the Wikipedia 1.0 scheme! For the 1.0 Editorial Team, §hepBot ( Disable) 21:37, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Dear Korean article writers and editors, have any of you by chance been to Baengnyeong Island? If so, please consider adding some photos to that article. It would be especially nice to have a photo of Changsan Cape, the nearby point of land in Ryongyon, North Korea, which is easily visible from Baengnyeong-do. Perhaps someone has already taken such a picture, or will take a trip to Baengnyeong-do in the near future. If so, any pictures would be appreciated! -- Amble ( talk) 04:46, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Wikiproject Sino-Japanese-Korean relations
I have proposed a Wikiproject workgroup on Sino-Japanese-Korean relations.
In my opinion, Wikipedia topics on Sino-Japanese-Korean topics all too often, and unfortunately, reflect the tense, exaggerated, embittered and often politically nationalistic debates currently prevalent in the popular presses of these three great nations.
In many case, these polemics are immature, propagandistic and unencyclopedic in nature and causes being promoted by unethical editing habits. Japanese-Korean topics appear to be amongst the more problematic topics on the Wikipedia.
At the same time, within each nation and academic circles there are moves to create pan-national understanding and document an accurate account of history. It is therefore proposed to establish a Sino-Japanese-Korean workgroup interested in establishing good working relations to improve the academic nature of these articles and encourage normal editing.
For the sakes of honesty and transparency, this pan-national workgroup was sincerely proposed precisely in response to the mode of operation used by many editors
Such wasteful activities as persistent allegations, personal attacks and other distractions from the primary activity of content production and reference checking only discouraging newcomers, less aggressive and, especially, genuine academics from participating on the Wikipedia. They undermine the goodwill of the Wikipedia.
It is hoped that by bring together authors from across the spectrum who are interested in rising above differences standards, understanding and sensitivity can be improved; just as they are in academia at present.
Your contribution is welcome. My apologies if it is not according to the protocols to make such announcements on other WikiProjects. -- Ex-oneatf ( talk) 05:37, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

I meandered by Category:Korean dancers today, and found that nearly all the articles there are for K-pop artists. I figured the category was for actual dancers, like ballet dancers, classical dancers, even breakdancers if what they are known for is dancing...as opposed to people who happen to dance while doing other things like singing, like TVXQ. I love watching cute boybands dance and all, but do they really qualify as "dancers" in the sense meant by the category? -- hamu♥hamu ( TALK) 14:08, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
anybody help? i can't edit Dokdo article.
i found some Wrong edit in article. But i can't change article. Please can you help me this? how can i change this article?
1877 Daijō-kan order |
---|
In 1877, Japanese Daijō-kan issued an order stating that Ulleungdo and another island are not under Japanese rule [1][2]. Korea claims that this "another island" refers to Liancourt Rocks and considers this order as an evidence that Liancourt Rocks were under the control of Korea. Japan considers that this "another island" does not refer to Liancourt Rocks.
Japan was NOT considers that this "another island" does not refer to Liancourt Rocks. Japan goverment never metioned that 1877 Daijō-kan order. Japan goverment still NOT answer about this docment. There is no official response to this document from mofa.go.jp(The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan). so, Japan never says "another island" does not refer to Liancourt Rocks and "antoher island" is currently Liancourt Rocks. This is very clear. This is not dispute at all. www.geocities.com/mlovmo/temp14.html |
1905 Japanese Shimane Prefectural Notice No. 40 |
---|
[...] Japan claims the incorporation was valid on grounds that Liancourt Rocks was a "terra nullius" and that Korea did not dispute the incorporation when the news was published. [...]
In 1906, Korean realized that Japan incorporate This island. and Ullengdo Goverment answer is "Dokdo has become Japanese territory is a totally unfounded allegation" [4] [5] Korean cleary prostested this. so, This sentence is Wrong. |
Post World War II era |
---|
[...] Government reply on the issue of sovereignty between South Korea and Japan, and it states that Liancourt Rocks are territory of Japan. (However, the current U.S. government stands on a neutral position on this issue.)
Here is the other document. This document is a memo entitled "Koreans on Liancourt Rocks" from the US Embassy, Tokyo to the US State Department, dated October 3, 1952. "...The history of these rocks has been reviewed more than once by the Department, and does not need extensive recounting here. The rocks, which are fertile seal breeding grounds, were at one time part of the Kingdom of Korea. They were, of course, annexed together with the remaining territory of Korea when Japan extended its Empire over the former Korean State..." http://www.flickr.com/photos/28788327@N05/2690801055/
According to 1953.12.9 US docuement, "[The] US view re Takeshima [is] simply that of one of many signatories to [the] treaty." " The U.S. is not obligated to 'protect Japan' from Korean "pretensions" to Dokdo, and that such an idea cannot...be considered as [a] legitimate claim for US action under [the U.S.-Japan] security treaty http://www.flickr.com/photos/28788327@N05/2690787983/ Please I want change sentence.

before 1953, Japan goverment did not recognized that Dokdo belong to Japan. even Korea-Japan annexation period(1910~1945), Dokdo was classified as a part of Gangwondo, Korea. After 1945, Korea liberation from Japan, Korea shortly govered by USFK and WW2 allied force. even that period, Dokdo was classified as a Korean territory. |

Can someone please take a look at this newly created article? I can't tell if this is a real subject or not. "Dokdo volunteered campaign" gets no hits on google other than Wikipedia. The article has a link, but it's in Korean so I can't read it. I would think that the dispute over Dokdo is already well covered in Liancourt Rocks. PC78 ( talk) 07:45, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
I don't object to it as such, but is this really necessary? Should we not be consulting the rest of the project first, to see if there is any interest in such a work group?

If you're Korean, you would hear through various media that the writer past away today. He was a big tree in Korean literature, and influenced to Korean film, drama, and plays as well. Some of his works adapted into film are Seopyeonje (by Im Kwon-taek) and Iodo ( Kim Ki-young). The article on him should have been made much earlier, but the stub needs more expansion, given the his contributions. Thanks. -- Caspian blue ( talk) 13:20, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
I was bold and moved the article " Shakkei and the picturesque", a title no one would ever search for or link to, to the far more common and straightforward " borrowed scenery". I have done a little to bring a more worldwide view (i.e. not just Japan) into the intro sentence, and added the East Asian languages template, to represent the different ways this term is pronounced in different languages.
A lot of work needs to be done to expand this out to cover the Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese (and other?) applications of this concept, not just the Japanese, and the Korean and Vietnamese words need to be added to the language template at the top.
I am no expert on this subject, especially not on the non-Japanese aspects/versions of it, and so I apologize for leaving it in this half-done state, and implore anyone with an interest and an expertise in traditional East Asian gardens to contribute whatever you can. Thank you. LordAmeth ( talk) 17:20, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

An article tagged with the WikiProject Korea and WikiProject Vietnam banners has been suspected of being a hoax (or part thereof) on the grounds that a large part of it seems to be blatant pseudo-history. See Talk:Lý Long Tường for the discussion. If you have any points to make, then be sure to make your voice heard (however small or trivial they may be)!

Wikipedia 0.7 is a collection of English Wikipedia articles due to be released on DVD, and available for free download, later this year. The Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team has made an automated selection of articles for Version 0.7.
We would like to ask you to review the articles selected from this project. These were chosen from the articles with this project's talk page tag, based on the rated importance and quality. If there are any specific articles that should be removed, please let us know at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.7. You can also nominate additional articles for release, following the procedure at Wikipedia:Release Version Nominations.
A list of selected articles with cleanup tags, sorted by project, is available. The list is automatically updated each hour when it is loaded. Please try to fix any urgent problems in the selected articles. A team of copyeditors has agreed to help with copyediting requests, although you should try to fix simple issues on your own if possible.
We would also appreciate your help in identifying the version of each article that you think we should use, to help avoid vandalism or POV issues. These versions can be recorded at this project's subpage of User:SelectionBot/0.7. We are planning to release the selection for the holiday season, so we ask you to select the revisions before October 20. At that time, we will use an automatic process to identify which version of each article to release, if no version has been manually selected. Thanks!

I'd like for interested Korean editors to take a look at the articles Li Zhengji, Yi Jeonggi, and Yi Jeong Ki. Right now, there is a proposal to merge them, but I see no good mergeable information and therefore have proposed Yi Jeonggi and Yi Jeong Ki for deletion. However, I am open to contrary opinions, particularly if there are reliable Korean sources either to confirm some of the claims in the article or at least discuss them in historiographical terms. Certainly they shouldn't exist as three separate articles. (The reason why I created Li Zhengji in the first place was because I didn't realize the existence of the other two articles given the complete lack of redirects and links from the related Chinese history articles.) -- Nlu ( talk) 15:17, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

The article on the naming disputes deals with naming disputes of the body of water from historical/geographical point of view. However, Kusunose ( talk · contribs) only removed a Korean map as insisting that the map is written in Korean (in fact Chinese character), and said the map has nothing to do with the international dispute. I think his rationale is not only absurd, but also contradictory to the historically involved dispute. Historical maps only from other countries are utterly absurd because the dispute is between Korean and Japan and so are history. I think the attempt is just to remove Korean point of view. Besides, he failed to provide related content for his relocation of the Ricci's map. Therefore, more people's opinion on this is appreciated.

Hi all. I was wondering if anybody would support a Template:Infobox Korean-language singer and actor like Template:Infobox Chinese-language singer and actor for Korean actors and singers. I want consistency and simplicity like many but I;ve noticed many of the articles don't have standard actor/singer infoboxes but have a transliteration box. Evidently somebody raised the concern years ago when Template:Infobox Korean Film was created which is specially used for Korean articles to include the transliteraitons in one. For instance Jo Yoon-hee, I think the box underneath looks out of place and would be much better as a parameter at the top of the top box. Also the infobox could be designed to incude Korean awards given to actors and singers which will display when required. Then there are articles like Ju Jin-mo which have large transliteration box but no actor box and it isn't consistent. Count Blofeld 13:57, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
Your FA to stub analogy is completely redundant as an excuse. Articles like Ju Jin-mo have much better content than articles like Jo Yoon-hee yet the least developed articles actually has an actor box while the most developed one doesn't. You keep emphasising that you are using the actor infobox but I see you;ve edited Ju Jin-mo and have not used one but somebody has bothered to add a translation box. All I'm saying is if you have one infobox it kills two birds with one stone and avoids the inconsistency of either having one box or two. Count Blofeld 17:19, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Currently, Korean cities are shown on provincial maps. But the place of the province in Korea is NOT shown on the city pages. This certainly should be done. Compare Anyang, China and Anyang, South Korea: It's easy for some-one not familiar with the provinces of China to see where the city is in the country/world; where-as placing the Korean city involves attempts at flipping back and forth to the province site.

As you may have heard, we at the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team recently made some changes to the assessment scale, including the addition of a new level. The new description is available at WP:ASSESS.
Each WikiProject should already have a new C-Class category at Category:C-Class_articles. If your project elects not to use the new level, you can simply delete your WikiProject's C-Class category and clarify any amendments on your project's assessment/discussion pages. The bot is already finding and listing C-Class articles.
Please leave a message with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme. This scheme should allow the team to start producing offline selections for your project and the wider community within the next year. Thanks for using the Wikipedia 1.0 scheme!

Wikiproject Sino-Japanese-Korean relations
I have proposed a Wikiproject workgroup on Sino-Japanese-Korean relations.
In my opinion, Wikipedia topics on Sino-Japanese-Korean topics all too often, and unfortunately, reflect the tense, exaggerated, embittered and often politically nationalistic debates currently prevalent in the popular presses of these three great nations.
In many case, these polemics are immature, propagandistic and unencyclopedic in nature and causes being promoted by unethical editing habits. Japanese-Korean topics appear to be amongst the more problematic topics on the Wikipedia.
At the same time, within each nation and academic circles there are moves to create pan-national understanding and document an accurate account of history. It is therefore proposed to establish a Sino-Japanese-Korean workgroup interested in establishing good working relations to improve the academic nature of these articles and encourage normal editing.
For the sakes of honesty and transparency, this pan-national workgroup was sincerely proposed precisely in response to the mode of operation used by many editors
Such wasteful activities as persistent allegations, personal attacks and other distractions from the primary activity of content production and reference checking only discouraging newcomers, less aggressive and, especially, genuine academics from participating on the Wikipedia. They undermine the goodwill of the Wikipedia.
It is hoped that by bring together authors from across the spectrum who are interested in rising above differences standards, understanding and sensitivity can be improved; just as they are in academia at present.
Your contribution is welcome. My apologies if it is not according to the protocols to make such announcements on other WikiProjects. -- Ex-oneatf ( talk) 05:37, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

I meandered by Category:Korean dancers today, and found that nearly all the articles there are for K-pop artists. I figured the category was for actual dancers, like ballet dancers, classical dancers, even breakdancers if what they are known for is dancing...as opposed to people who happen to dance while doing other things like singing, like TVXQ. I love watching cute boybands dance and all, but do they really qualify as "dancers" in the sense meant by the category? -- hamu♥hamu ( TALK) 14:08, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

1877 Daijō-kan order |
---|
In 1877, Japanese Daijō-kan issued an order stating that Ulleungdo and another island are not under Japanese rule [1][2]. Korea claims that this "another island" refers to Liancourt Rocks and considers this order as an evidence that Liancourt Rocks were under the control of Korea. Japan considers that this "another island" does not refer to Liancourt Rocks.
Japan was NOT considers that this "another island" does not refer to Liancourt Rocks. Japan goverment never metioned that 1877 Daijō-kan order. Japan goverment still NOT answer about this docment. There is no official response to this document from mofa.go.jp(The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan). so, Japan never says "another island" does not refer to Liancourt Rocks and "antoher island" is currently Liancourt Rocks. This is very clear. This is not dispute at all. www.geocities.com/mlovmo/temp14.html |
1905 Japanese Shimane Prefectural Notice No. 40 |
---|
[...] Japan claims the incorporation was valid on grounds that Liancourt Rocks was a "terra nullius" and that Korea did not dispute the incorporation when the news was published. [...]
In 1906, Korean realized that Japan incorporate This island. and Ullengdo Goverment answer is "Dokdo has become Japanese territory is a totally unfounded allegation" [4] [5] Korean cleary prostested this. so, This sentence is Wrong. |
Post World War II era |
---|
[...] Government reply on the issue of sovereignty between South Korea and Japan, and it states that Liancourt Rocks are territory of Japan. (However, the current U.S. government stands on a neutral position on this issue.)
Here is the other document. This document is a memo entitled "Koreans on Liancourt Rocks" from the US Embassy, Tokyo to the US State Department, dated October 3, 1952. "...The history of these rocks has been reviewed more than once by the Department, and does not need extensive recounting here. The rocks, which are fertile seal breeding grounds, were at one time part of the Kingdom of Korea. They were, of course, annexed together with the remaining territory of Korea when Japan extended its Empire over the former Korean State..." http://www.flickr.com/photos/28788327@N05/2690801055/
According to 1953.12.9 US docuement, "[The] US view re Takeshima [is] simply that of one of many signatories to [the] treaty." " The U.S. is not obligated to 'protect Japan' from Korean "pretensions" to Dokdo, and that such an idea cannot...be considered as [a] legitimate claim for US action under [the U.S.-Japan] security treaty http://www.flickr.com/photos/28788327@N05/2690787983/ Please I want change sentence.

before 1953, Japan goverment did not recognized that Dokdo belong to Japan. even Korea-Japan annexation period(1910~1945), Dokdo was classified as a part of Gangwondo, Korea. After 1945, Korea liberation from Japan, Korea shortly govered by USFK and WW2 allied force. even that period, Dokdo was classified as a Korean territory. |

I was bold and moved the article " Shakkei and the picturesque", a title no one would ever search for or link to, to the far more common and straightforward " borrowed scenery". I have done a little to bring a more worldwide view (i.e. not just Japan) into the intro sentence, and added the East Asian languages template, to represent the different ways this term is pronounced in different languages.
A lot of work needs to be done to expand this out to cover the Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese (and other?) applications of this concept, not just the Japanese, and the Korean and Vietnamese words need to be added to the language template at the top.
I am no expert on this subject, especially not on the non-Japanese aspects/versions of it, and so I apologize for leaving it in this half-done state, and implore anyone with an interest and an expertise in traditional East Asian gardens to contribute whatever you can.

Wikipedia 0.7 is a collection of English Wikipedia articles due to be released on DVD, and available for free download, later this year. The Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team has made an automated selection of articles for Version 0.7.
We would like to ask you to review the articles selected from this project. These were chosen from the articles with this project's talk page tag, based on the rated importance and quality. If there are any specific articles that should be removed, please let us know at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.7. You can also nominate additional articles for release, following the procedure at Wikipedia:Release Version Nominations.
A list of selected articles with cleanup tags, sorted by project, is available. The list is automatically updated each hour when it is loaded. Please try to fix any urgent problems in the selected articles. A team of copyeditors has agreed to help with copyediting requests, although you should try to fix simple issues on your own if possible.
We would also appreciate your help in identifying the version of each article that you think we should use, to help avoid vandalism or POV issues. These versions can be recorded at this project's subpage of User:SelectionBot/0.7. We are planning to release the selection for the holiday season, so we ask you to select the revisions before October 20. At that time, we will use an automatic process to identify which version of each article to release, if no version has been manually selected. Thanks!

I'd like for interested Korean editors to take a look at the articles Li Zhengji, Yi Jeonggi, and Yi Jeong Ki. Right now, there is a proposal to merge them, but I see no good mergeable information and therefore have proposed Yi Jeonggi and Yi Jeong Ki for deletion. However, I am open to contrary opinions, particularly if there are reliable Korean sources either to confirm some of the claims in the article or at least discuss them in historiographical terms. Certainly they shouldn't exist as three separate articles. (The reason why I created Li Zhengji in the first place was because I didn't realize the existence of the other two articles given the complete lack of redirects and links from the related Chinese history articles.) -- Nlu ( talk) 15:17, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

The article on the naming disputes deals with naming disputes of the body of water from historical/geographical point of view. However, Kusunose ( talk · contribs) only removed a Korean map as insisting that the map is written in Korean (in fact Chinese character), and said the map has nothing to do with the international dispute. I think his rationale is not only absurd, but also contradictory to the historically involved dispute. Historical maps only from other countries are utterly absurd because the dispute is between Korean and Japan and so are history. I think the attempt is just to remove Korean point of view.

Hi all. I was wondering if anybody would support a Template:Infobox Korean-language singer and actor like Template:Infobox Chinese-language singer and actor for Korean actors and singers. I want consistency and simplicity like many but I;ve noticed many of the articles don't have standard actor/singer infoboxes but have a transliteration box. Evidently somebody raised the concern years ago when Template:Infobox Korean Film was created which is specially used for Korean articles to include the transliteraitons in one. For instance Jo Yoon-hee, I think the box underneath looks out of place and would be much better as a parameter at the top of the top box. Also the infobox could be designed to incude Korean awards given to actors and singers which will display when required. Then there are articles like Ju Jin-mo which have large transliteration box but no actor box and it isn't consistent. Count Blofeld 13:57, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
Your FA to stub analogy is completely redundant as an excuse. Articles like Ju Jin-mo have much better content than articles like Jo Yoon-hee yet the least developed articles actually has an actor box while the most developed one doesn't. You keep emphasising that you are using the actor infobox but I see you;ve edited Ju Jin-mo and have not used one but somebody has bothered to add a translation box. All I'm saying is if you have one infobox it kills two birds with one stone and avoids the inconsistency of either having one box or two. Count Blofeld 17:19, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Currently, Korean cities are shown on provincial maps. But the place of the province in Korea is NOT shown on the city pages. This certainly should be done. Compare Anyang, China and Anyang, South Korea: It's easy for some-one not familiar with the provinces of China to see where the city is in the country/world; where-as placing the Korean city involves attempts at flipping back and forth to the province site.
