== No letter ==
:Altho it had [http://video.ap.org/Kim-Jong-Un-Invites-President-Trump-to-North-Korea-33617194 been reported Chung had passed a handwritten letter by Kim on to Trump],[http://mynews4.com/news/nation-world/report-kim-jong-un-is-willing-to-meet-with-president-trump] it was later clarified that Kim's invitation that Chung relayed to Trump had been done verbally. ("The invitation was delivered Thursday by North Korean national security advisor Chung Eui-yong. In the message - which was originally reported to have been delivered in a letter -- Kim Jong Un also pledged to stop nuclear and missile testing.

== The composite image of the 2 leaders ==

I'm sorry, but this image might give the impression at a passing glance that it is a picture of the two men together. I know it's a montage, the backgrounds are quite different, and anyone examining it at all closely would see that, but we shouldn't, even potentially, confuse or mislead the reader, or cause them to go "wtf?". I suppose with a more explanatory caption, making clear it's a composite image it could be ok, but at the moment I'm quite uncomfortable with it - especially with the caption it has. My first inclination was to remove it, but I'm posting here for other opinions in case others see it differently. --<span style="font-family:Arial;font-weight:bold;color:#004d80;"> [[User talk:Begoon|Begoon]]</span> 14:55, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

== Reactions? ==

Do we really need to list reactions from random people around the world before the summit has even started? If they are important, they should be included in ''Developments''.--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 10:06, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
:It will soon be confusing what these people are reacting to, as the developments unfold.--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 10:11, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
::I've removed the "Reactions" section. It was just a random "quote farm". Consisting of quotes as far back as March, it made no chronological sense, and added nothing to the article.--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 06:37, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

I believe that the reactions from the world about the historic summit; it would undoubtedly add values to the article as all parts of countries see differently the Trump - Kim summit. Trump-Kim Summit has a positive and negative view even in the United States. I think it is important to have a balanced view of these reactions in Wikipedia.
I think it is a procedure to ask for the consent and opinion of several people first before the removing the one topic regarding the contribution of Wikipedians. If you think you need to sort the contents in chronological order, instead of merely erasing them, arrange the contents in chronological order. I would recover the relevant topic as a first step. [[User:Goodtiming8871|Goodtiming8871]] ([[User talk:Goodtiming8871|talk]])

:I think two months was long enough to wait for a response. The problem is that the reactions are detached from the chronological structure of the article. As time has gone on, people have reacted to different things, but these are all lumped together. Are we going to end up with reactions to the actual summit lumped together with reactions to the proposal???--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 20:53, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
:From my understanding about the interest of the historic summit, and as per your point to separate the reactions about the proposed summit and actual summit, it would be appropriate to create another section for the responses to the actual summit on the date of 12 June 2018.

== nuclear weapons strategic asset ==

What is a nuclear weapons strategic asset? Is it a strategic nuclear weapon or delivery means or weapons storage or command and control, or launch facilities or what?--[[User:Arado|Arado]] ([[User talk:Arado|talk]]) 12:36, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
:I think you may see it as a [[Trump (card games)|trump]] in a [[trick-taking game|trick-taking]] [[card game|game of cards]]. How a [[map]] works. Either it [[List of states with nuclear weapons|works]] or it [[Failure|doesn't]]. Does that [[Bluff (poker)|make sense]]? [[User:Wakari07|Wakari07]] ([[User talk:Wakari07|talk]]) 04:26, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

== Why now? ==

Are there any sources analysing why North Korea is offering to meet with Trump at all, let alone agreeing to this summit? Last I heard, Trump was insulting Kim Jong-un on twitter. This article currently says the summit is happening with no analysis of why. I find it hard to believe that the North Koreans spontaneously decided to invite America to the summit out of the goodness of their own hearts. [[User:Hypershock|Hypershock]] ([[User talk:Hypershock|talk]]) 12:10, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

:Good point. Part of the answer can be found at [[North Korea–South Korea relations]]. However, you seem to have the misconception that North Korea was refusing to negotiate with the USA, whereas the USA was refusing to negotiate with North Korea ("strategic patience"). North Korea hasn't really shifted its position. But, yes, this should be covered here.--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 21:37, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
::Good question. For myself, I wouldn't feel knowledgeable enough to venture a guess. That said, one source, at least, opines: "North Korea’s ideal to aim for, therefore, its shimmering vision of a more prosperous future, is not Vietnam but Belarus. To achieve a development of the North Korean economy and its re-orientation towards Russia, Kim probably needs two treaties — not just one. With Trump, he needs a treaty ending sanctions on North Korea and allowing it to make arrangements with the Western private sector in its own interests. With Russia, he needs a treaty of alliance and assistance, ideally funded by the Western banking system."[https://www.theglobalist.com/north-korea-kim-jong-un-united-states-donald-trump/]--[[User:Hodgdon&#39;s secret garden|Hodgdon&#39;s secret garden]] ([[User talk:Hodgdon&#39;s secret garden|talk]]) 01:21, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
:::The problem is there's a lot of analysis, some of it merely reflecting the agenda or prejudices of its authors. I think we'd want to look for the main points that most people make, but more importantly the things are undoubtably true. That is, it's better to say that President Moon was elected on a promise to return to the [[Sunshine Policy]] than to try to get a mind-reading of Kim Jong Un.--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 09:25, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
::::I've added a "Background" section which, I hope, goes some way to explain why the summit might be happening.--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 10:19, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
:::::Hmm. Per [[Robert Einhorn]] ("a former State Department official who met with Kim’s father as part of the Clinton administration negotiations with North Korea"), as quoted in USA Today, Kim "likes to take the initiative. He likes to control the agenda and he likes to keep his adversaries off balance. Looked at from a professional point of view what he has been doing has been quite impressive."[https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2018/04/24/north-korea-summit-kim-jong-un-donald-trump/546392002/]--[[User:Hodgdon&#39;s secret garden|Hodgdon&#39;s secret garden]] ([[User talk:Hodgdon&#39;s secret garden|talk]]) 20:38, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

[[:2018 North Korea–United States summit]] → {{no redirect|2018 planned North Korea–United States summit}} – Now that the summit has been cancelled, I feel like this would be a more appropriate name, or something similar to this effect.

:*'''Oppose''' - Both are unnecessary additions. The lead sentence would better explain this than a lengthy title, ie. "The '''2018 North Korea–United States summit''' was a planned meeting between ... which was cancelled following a re-escalation of tensions between the two nations." - '''[[User:Floydian|<span style="color: #5A5AC5;">Floydian</span>]]'''&nbsp;<sup>[[User_talk:Floydian|<span style="color: #3AAA3A;">τ</span>]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Floydian|<span style="color: #3AAA3A;">¢</span>]]</sub> 15:01, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
:*'''Oppose''' - both are bad. planned suggest it's still in process and has not occurred yet. Cancellation means it's never going to occur. Even with the option to restart, this article should only exist after the summit has taken place. It was pre-mature to start a independent Wiki article that is separate from [[2017–18 North Korea crisis]]. This is just one of many twists and turns, doesn't deserve it's own independent article.[[User:Rwat128|Rwat128]] ([[User talk:Rwat128|talk]]) 17:06, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

*'''Comment''' – {{Ping|Another Believer|Floydian}} My goal here is to say that the meeting was a failure in the article's title. I realize the word "planned" may not be the best option. [[User:JE98|JE98]] ([[User talk:JE98|talk]]) 15:28, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' unnecessary for disambiguation purposes and does not change any truth claims. Planned, cancelled, and concluded summits are all "summits".

<s>*'''Comment''' – There is still a chance that the meeting may happen. If nothing occurs before 12 June or there is not even any chance of it occurring before then (North Korea and the US both cancel prior to 12 June), then we should consider merging or rewriting the article to mention the development of the plans until the cancellation.

:*'''Oppose''' – Remove top page clutter. "Planned" by whom? [[User:Wakari07|Wakari07]] ([[User talk:Wakari07|talk]]) 07:02, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Support''' – The title is problematic and inherently misleading, as though [[Attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan]] were titled "Assassination of Ronald Reagan", or [[1919 Polish coup attempt]] were titled "1919 Polish coup". Possibilities would include "Failed/Canceled/Planned/Aborted 2018 North Korea–United States summit". [[User:Doremo|Doremo]] ([[User talk:Doremo|talk]]) 07:33, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Support''' in part — We should say, and should have always said, '''Proposed 2018 North Korea–United States summit'''. It's a mistake to talk about what "will be". We should talk about what is. I also agree that it's too soon to say the summit is cancelled. North Korea has indicated they are still interested, and no doubt South Korea and China will intervene. Again, we should talk about what is: Trump has said he's pulling out. This could just be a negotiating ploy. However, we should say the summit is "proposed" until it happens. A proposed summit or a cancelled summit is not a summit.--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 08:20, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

==Cancelled Summit, suggest Merger with 2017-2018 North Korea Crisis==
My suggestion to all is that Wiki article should be merged with [[2017–18 North Korea crisis]] as a new subsection, it doesn't deserve an independent thread since it was cancelled event that never actually occurred. Even if Trump left the option to continue it, this article should only exist after the summit has occurred, not if it's cancelled. [[User:Rwat128|Rwat128]] ([[User talk:Rwat128|talk]]) 17:04, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
:<s>'''Support''' – Not a bad idea, we would just have to condense the information. [[User:JE98|JE98]] ([[User talk:JE98|talk]]) 19:13, 24 May 2018 (UTC)</s>
:That would be okay as long as someone by God removes the crazy "Crisis" from that article title - there ain't no crisis. It's business as usual on the Korean peninsula. [[Special:Contributions/50.111.48.95|50.111.48.95]] ([[User talk:50.111.48.95|talk]]) 21:11, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

I'd disagree with that, and while this may be an oversimplification of the DPRK-US relations prior to this current administration, this is more dangerous than any previous confrontations have been (I see that the 2013 North Korean crisis page has apparently been deleted, as if to magnify the seriousness of this one.)([[User:Sirkh1|Sirkh1]] ([[User talk:Sirkh1|talk]]) 22:05, 24 May 2018 (UTC))
:The decision to merge 2013 Korean crisis to [[2013 in North Korea]] was made in 2015, so it has nothing to do with the 2017 article: [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2013 Korean crisis]]. <span style="font-family: serif; letter-spacing: 0.1em">–&nbsp;[[User:Finnusertop|Finnusertop]]</span> ([[User talk:Finnusertop|talk]] ⋅ [[Special:Contributions/Finnusertop|contribs]]) 22:55, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' – The scheduled summit has received sufficient coverage to justify a separate article, even if the summit doesn't end up happening (see [[WP:DEGRADE]]). Plus, reported details about the summit's preparation and why it was canceled would just clutter the [[2017–18 North Korea crisis]] article (see [[WP:SIZE]]). <em><sup>[[User:FallingGravity|Falling]]</sup><sub>[[User talk:FallingGravity|Gravity]]</sub></em> 23:29, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' – These are early days. [[User:Kencf0618|kencf0618]] ([[User talk:Kencf0618|talk]]) 00:05, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' — I agree it's too soon. I don't think the crisis article would be a good merger target. This would turn that article into an extended narrative of North Korea's international relations, which is not useful and not encyclopedic. I think a better target would be [[North Korea–United States relations]]. However, as I said it's premature and a merger may not be necessarily as the proposed summit is notable enough for its own article.--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 08:27, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Oppose and close''' – Now that new information is surfacing that the meeting still could be on, I change my vote. In fact, now that I look at it, there is too much information here to merge it in. [[User:JE98|JE98]] ([[User talk:JE98|talk]]) 16:50, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Oppose and close''' as per above. Jeez, my opinion seems to change so much based on information. If it's still on, close and don't merge. [[User:Dreigorich|Dreigorich]] ([[User talk:Dreigorich|talk]]) 19:58, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Support''' It sets a bad precedent to create an independent article for every event that never takes place. This is a good example of "Jumping the gone" on a premature summit. If Wiki had a proposed/schedule summit, there would be thousands of summit events. [[User:Rwat128|Rwat128]] ([[User talk:Rwat128|talk]]) 01:11, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
:There's still a possibility of it happening - it's not fully over. Trump cancelled it and then changed his mind - the possibility of it happening is still there. [[Special:Contributions/8.40.151.110|8.40.151.110]] ([[User talk:8.40.151.110|talk]]) 14:54, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
*'''Oppose'''. This specific event is too stand-alone and separate to be merged into the (also) stand-alone subject of the North Korean crisis article. Cancelled or not (and of course it happened) the summit itself was and is significant. So unlike what Rwat128 said above, this here is too big, too historic, too significant to be considered like "every event". It's obviously something different. Both articles could (and should) ''mention'' each other (obviously), but not be merged, and diluted, in that sense. But at this point, the matter is moot and closed.

== Close paraphrasing in "Aftermath" section? ==
I don't think we should be using the term "Chairman Kim", which appears to have gained currency in recent times. We don't use the term at the [[Kim Jong-un]] article. The North Koreans sometimes use the term, but more often seem to call him "Supreme Leader" or "Respected Comrade". In most cases here, he can be called Kim Jong-un or Kim.--[[User:Jack Upland|Jack Upland]] ([[User talk:Jack Upland|talk]]) 09:25, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
:Agreed. Kim is "Chairman" of more than one instance. Unless his capacity as chairman of those instances is discussed, the title is not relevant and is only confusing. For introductory purposes (supreme) [[leader of North Korea]] is the best description. <span style="font-family: serif; letter-spacing: 0.1em">–&nbsp;[[User:Finnusertop|Finnusertop]]</span> ([[User talk:Finnusertop|talk]] ⋅ [[Special:Contributions/Finnusertop|contribs]]) 09:33, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
* '''Keep''' – Kim Jong-un has been addressed as "Chairman Kim" officially in preparations for the summit, during the summit, and after the summit by the U.S. side. An article about the summit should definitely reflect this fact. "Supreme leader" is not an official title, and I don't see any sources claiming that North Koreans call him that way. — [[User:JFG|JFG]] <sup>[[User talk:JFG|talk]]</sup> 10:46, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

== Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and Questions about compliance ==
Suggest to remove "The people in Singapore are divided about the resumption of the Trump–Kim summit; some believe that it is a small but encouraging step towards world peace whilst others are dissatisfied with both leaders." under the "Reactions" section.
Can we change the subject from "Questions about compliance" to "Questions about missile development"?
As North Korea has already withdrawn from the [[nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty]] (NPT).
