Thank you

Thanks for some of the edits on the Korean history article. It helps a lot. Except I have not been able to come back to it because I am in a heavy argument over disputes between Korea and Japan. Good friend100 03:02, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Re:Korea-related articles: priorities

The articles that need a lot of editing are probably all the history of Korea articles. One of the best way is to model after the Japanese articles because they are very nicely done, and I wish to upgrade our articles to that level. Also, join the Korea Portal, which I am part of, and you can help edit articles.

Probably my main goal is to make the Imjin War or History of Korea article into a featured article. To do this, it would take a lot of time, but I am hopeful if we have more supporters and editors. Thanks. Good friend100 21:34, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Korean or Japanese

Are you Korean or Japanese? Its because you wrote you "used to be of Korean ancestry". Good friend100 17:39, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

thats cool. Good friend100 20:18, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Then why do you have a Japanese name? Are you of mixed Korean and Japanese descent, or a Zainichi Korean? Many Koreans in Japan adopt Japanese names, do take a look at Stained Glass (TV series), though. Well anyway I'm just curious. Mr Tan 14:33, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Gija

Yi Ki Baek is very very very old historian, his book does not reflect on the current history research of korea. Even in high school text book of korea, Gija does not appear, and high school teachers do not teach about Gija, which means that Gija is no longer official history, and gija joseon is generally and officially negated.. --Breathejustice 10:33, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Why dont you search the current research of korean history. Kim bushik have just copied the history books of china without expert knowledge of korean history..--Breathejustice 23:14, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't know what makes you think I don't know the current research on Korean history... sigh. Shogo Kawada 23:17, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

welcome

just wanted to add my welcome. it's nice to see another editor working on korean history articles, especially someone who knows how to ref! i had worked on many of these history articles, based mostly on korean encyclopedias at yahoo korea (britannica, very nice), daum, & naver, basically as a way of educating myself, as a non-expert. they still need a lot more work, especially in-line citations, and needed to be guarded against both conservative & liberal bias.

if you have time, & are interested, i hope you can check the List of Korean rulers, especially the Buyeo section, which i think is based on the "alternative" timeline, the various titles (wang/daewang/taewang/emperor), and the korean empire period (should it be just integrated into late joseon list?).

there are many other questions, so hope you can stick around, thanks. Appleby 16:44, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
