Redirect?

Since this has been transwikied to Wiktionary, why can't there be a redirect there ( http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Korean_surnames )? I needed this article, blatantly found out that it has been deleted and searched for a full 15 minutes for it. It's far too much since it could always have a straight redirect to the obvious place. As this seems to be protected, some wise admin might do that.

Furthermore, there seems to be a reasonable amount of articles that link to this non-existing page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Whatlinkshere/List_of_Korean_family_names ). What about them? Or a redirect on List of Korean surnames, which doesn't either exist or redirect anywhere. --88.114.203.250 17:44, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Linking to individual surname articles

Let's link the surnames to their individual articles, if they exist. But I don't know what to wikilink. I would suggest either the romanisation under "SK Romanization" or "McCune-Reischauer", instead of the Hanja or Hangul. List of common Chinese surnames wikilinks the pinyin romanisation, but we know that pinyin is the widely accepted romanisation standard for Chinese characters on WP. Looking at Korea-related articles and biographies of Koreans, both McCune-Reischauer and Revised Romanization seem to be used commonly.

There is no reason to delete this page. In fact, this page is very important, so please take it off the list of nomination for deletion page. Thank you. Orthodoxy


Name meanings

If the name meanings aren't clear, they should be added.. i.e. if there is no special pages for the names, adding them would be a nice feature, since this is for English Speakers, not those fluent in chinese. Also something like if it goes by Chinese meanings or by hanja, since there are some differences, even though they are minor.--Hitsuji Kinno 06:38, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The hanja should all be Wiktionary-linked. Badagnani 18:55, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Can someone update the Korean govt statistics links, because the page has moved and it gives an error now?
