Fair use rationale for Image:Naverscreenshot.png

Image:Naverscreenshot.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:31, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

"benchmark"

The use of this word in the text may be incorrect. If it is correct, the claims of features being benchmarked by others search engines need further clarification. 188.100.199.70 (talk) 05:40, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Came in here to say the same thing. Benchmark does not mean 'stole' 209.12.104.146 (talk) 19:00, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Advertising

Naver lists commercial ads along with search results - is it worth adding info on its advertising platform under a separate section or within the existing first section of this article? --Beastieboy (talk) 23:06, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Contradicting references

StatCounter appears to contradict the annual report of NHN, Naver's owner. Anyone got any ideas on which to trust. NHN is obviously not independent... but who are StatCounter? And NHN are quoting KoreanClick, who are they? Yaris678 (talk) 09:28, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Current ranking

Yandex's article puts it as the number 5 search engine worldwide, citing data from 2012 (which I couldn't find). The current ranking of Naver and Yandex can't be the same, so can Naver's be updated please? Is it now number six?? —DIV (138.194.11.244 (talk) 02:49, 6 July 2012 (UTC))

-i agree, but in defense it must be said that the statement refers to a 2007 article--Crossswords (talk) 16:56, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

Merge from Knowledge Search

As written (i.e. pretty badly), Knowledge Search, a Naver service, fails Wikipedia:Notability. I am not sure if it is the same service as Naver KiN (http://kin.naver.com) as it does not even link to it... (if it is about this topic, the Naver Knowledge service seems to be notable, just like Google Questions and Answers). But perhaps it may be rescued by being merged here? Or is it so bad we should nuke it? Thoughts? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:04, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

NAVER services: ( http://www.navercorp.com/en/index.nhn ) include 'Comprehensive Search', 'Knowledge iN' and 'Real-time Rising Keyword'. NAVER has many applications for a wide variety of services, the mobile messenger LINE through LINE Corporation, NAVER's subsidiary. NAVER's Webtoon service, launched in June of2004 in Korea, went global on July 2, 2014. Source: https://medium.com/the-headline/korean-webtoons-go-global-with-line-b82f3920580e

Yes, it should be merged. However, I question whether a generic term like knowledge search should redirect to Naver. Wolfram Alpha could be characterized as a knowledge search engine. Also, generic terms such as comprehensive search and knowledge search should be lower case. Content relating to Naver appears to be written by Naver's PR folks, not by ordinary, unbiased Wikipedians.—Finell 16:26, 5 October 2016 (UTC)  Done Klbrain (talk) 07:32, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

Naver's v-live app

I was wondering if this was going to be added at some point or if it isn't considered relevant or a part of naver.Peachywink (talk) 00:25, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

Naver Encyclopedia or Dictionary? (And 3 million entries claim)

Our article claims it had 3 million articles in 2017, yet it is not in Category:Korean encyclopedias, and I don't see it mentioned at ko:네이버의_서비스. ko:네이버 사전 suggests that it is a "an online dictionary service provided by Naver . It is largely composed of a language dictionary, encyclopedia ( ' Naver Knowledge Encyclopedia '), and a translator ". There is more at ko:네이버_지식백과 (not sure how exactly those services differ). "Rather than a single encyclopedia, it is taking a method of providing multiple dictionaries comprehensively.... Unlike Wikipedia, Naver Knowledge Encyclopedia is a service that collects and provides various encyclopedias and specialized dictionaries as a database . 2,700 specialized dictionaries, including < Doosan Dong-A Encyclopedia > (360,000 entries), < Korean National Culture Encyclopedia > (70,000 entries), and < Korean Folklore Encyclopedia > (6,000 entries). In addition, the 'art work' function provides photos of works and simple basic information by establishing a DB (170,000 works) of famous works of art published at home and abroad, such as Wikimedia Commons and the French National Museum Association . "

So, first, we need to c/e our entry, and second, the 3 million number may be a gross exaggeration, as it may includes duplicate entries, media (image pages), dictionary entries or maybe even redirects. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:03, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
