Korean War

Good job your additions with references are quite good, keep it up. We always need users to Be Bold!!!!!!! If you ever need any help feel free to contact me on my talk page. Sadads (talk) 18:41, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you!!!

Non-English

Syngmung, I encourage you to continue working on the Korean War article. However, using non-English references is a problem. Please look at WP:NONENG for Wikipedia policy. In your most recent edit, you say 60,000 ROK soldiers died of starvation. But the reference you use does not support this claim. Can you provide an English language reference for this (and other) material? Thank you. --S. Rich 04:24, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

See last paragraph in this source.

양곡과 피복 등을 빼돌려 약 9만여명이 추위와 배고픔,질병 등으로 사망했다.

Foods and clothes were embezzled, about 90,000 people died by hunger, cold and disease.

Could you use google translate? Translation is not well. Or ask korean readers.

Thank you for advice. English source are limited about non US related incidents. See the Korean War, the page devote enormous space to No Gun Ri Massacre, however the massacre is a single incident. There are many incident, but English source don't report other incidents except for bodo league which also US related one. I think English media are tendentious.

You are most certainly welcome. True, the machine translations do not do well. And Wikipedia policy does not address that problem. And even Korean speaking editors make mistakes in their English translations. So Wiki does not rely on "self-publishing", which occurs when a single person seeks to translate. Also, relying on the ja or ko versions of Wikipedia is a mistake. See [1]. Best regards. --S. Rich 14:06, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Syngmung-shi -- Wikipedia says: "Where English translations of non-English material are unavailable, editors may supply their own, subject to consensus, with the original posted alongside or in a footnote. Copyright restrictions permitting, translations published by reliable sources are preferred to those provided by Wikipedians." [2] Your recent edits do not follow this guideline. Also, you made changes which were not minor, but labeled them as minor.--S. Rich 15:36, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

I hope I was a help. tell me if there is anything else I can do to help you. (Aerowikipedian (talk) 03:14, 22 July 2010 (UTC))

Aerowikipedian, Thank you very much!! Srich32977, This edition seems minor editon, I edited little. However, your sedulous efforts to improve the articles and me are very good. Thank you, the articles improved in a short time.--Syngmung (talk) 14:15, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

National Defense Corps Incident

Glad if I could be of some help in finding some more English sources. Keep up the good work. Abby Kelleyite (talk) 16:42, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you very much.--Syngmung (talk) 16:46, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Rename

All of the Vietnam-related articles that you've created, it would be better if you renamed those articles to the names with Vietnamese diacritical marks. (e.g.: Go Dai massacre to Gò Dài massacre, Ha My massacre to Hà Mỹ massacre). 207.233.67.8 (talk) 21:55, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

I don't know proper Vietnamese diacritical marks. If you know the proper marks, you would rename the articles.--Syngmung (talk) 15:54, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

Seoul National University Hospital Massacre

2012 China anti-Japanese demonstrations

Regarding your change from "Senkaku Islands" to "Senkaku/Diaoyu", please note that this issue has been discussed at great length on Wikipedia, so much so that we eventually had to have the Arbitration Committee intervene. After a community wide RfC, it was decided that "Senkaku Islands" is, in fact, the English name of the islands as used in sources. Furthermore, An uninvolved admin, based on the sanctions put in place by Arbcom, said that the matter may not even be discussed again until 2013, because it was wasting the community's time and every single time it was raised, the result was to use the SI name. Please don't change that name back again. Qwyrxian (talk) 23:15, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
