To-do list for Wikipedia:WikiProject East Asia: edit · history · watch · refresh · Updated 2021-07-31

Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598) is a very high quality article currently rated C. The article may qualify for the rating of GA. A preliminary review and copy edit should be performed. For reference, this is the Good Article criteria.
- Pending the preliminary review and copy edit, this article should be submitted to Good Article nominations.

Mongol Empire is a very high quality article currently rated B. The article may qualify for the rating of GA. A preliminary review and copy edit should be performed. For reference, this is the Good Article criteria.

Karakorum needs a lot of work. It is currently the lowest quality article ranked "high importance" by our project. Let's try to get it to C or B class. For reference, this is the grading criteria.

Joseon missions to Japan is a high quality article that reads like a list. A discussion on its future is located in the project talk page. Please weigh in.

Seal (East Asia) is a high quality article, and is likely to make GA or FA one day, but right now, there is a more immediate concern with sources. Can someone find sources for the Japan subsection please? There are currently none for that section, which is not befitting of a B class article.

Four Asian Tigers has a "This article needs attention from an expert on the subject" tag on it. It has been there since June. It's likely that the tagger wanted someone to go through it and do some sourcing, as there is a tag for that too. FYI, the tigers are South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore. The article itself could use some content work if someone has the time, but the to do note itself is only about the sources.

Three Kingdoms needs sources.

Himalayas needs a map. Done by Sven Manguard _Talk
- It needs a better map if anyone is able.

Sinosphere requires additional citations. For a start-class top-importance project article, it really needs an improvement in the quality of the content as well.
