• 음낭 (talk · contribs)

This user keeps adding a redirect of 음낭 to Kim Jong-il, who is currently the leader of North Korea. I cannot read Korean, so I can't confirm whether this is a good-faith edit or not, but assuming that it is, we shouldn't allow 음낭 as a username as it is the name of a well-known international statesman, jguk 22:52, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

That says something other than Kim Jong-il ("Um-nang", roughly), so the username itself isn't offensive, AFAIK. – ugen64 06:59, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

• "Eum-nang" is Korean for "scrotum". [1] Kappa 07:02, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

Oh, heh, guess my Korean's not quite up to speed... – ugen64 07:08, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

This would be the equivalent of redirecting chimpanzee to George W. Bush. As such, I'd suggest something be done about this guy; he seems to be a vandal. - 206.114.20.121 19:01, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
