Good job your additions with references are quite good, keep it up. We always need users to Be Bold!!!!!!! If you ever need any help feel free to contact me on my talk page. Sadads (talk) 18:41, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you!!!
Non-English
Syngmung, I encourage you to continue working on the Korean War article. However, using non-English references is a problem. Please look at WP:NONENG for Wikipedia policy. In your most recent edit, you say 60,000 ROK soldiers died of starvation. But the reference you use does not support this claim. Can you provide an English language reference for this (and other) material? Thank you. --S. Rich 04:24, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- See last paragraph in this source.
- 양곡과 피복 등을 빼돌려 약 9만여명이 추위와 배고픔,질병 등으로 사망했다.
- Foods and clothes were embezzled, about 90,000 people died by hunger, cold and disease.
- Could you use google translate? Translation is not well. Or ask korean readers.
- Thank you for advice. English source are limited about non US related incidents. See the Korean War, the page devote enormous space to No Gun Ri Massacre, however the massacre is a single incident. There are many incident, but English source don't report other incidents except for bodo league which also US related one. I think English media are tendentious.
- You are most certainly welcome. True, the machine translations do not do well. And Wikipedia policy does not address that problem. And even Korean speaking editors make mistakes in their English translations. So Wiki does not rely on "self-publishing", which occurs when a single person seeks to translate. Also, relying on the ja or ko versions of Wikipedia is a mistake. See [1]. Best regards. --S. Rich 14:06, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
- Syngmung-shi -- Wikipedia says: "Where English translations of non-English material are unavailable, editors may supply their own, subject to consensus, with the original posted alongside or in a footnote. Copyright restrictions permitting, translations published by reliable sources are preferred to those provided by Wikipedians." [2] Your recent edits do not follow this guideline. Also, you made changes which were not minor, but labeled them as minor.--S. Rich 15:36, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

I hope I was a help. tell me if there is anything else I can do to help you. (Aerowikipedian (talk) 03:14, 22 July 2010 (UTC))
- Aerowikipedian, Thank you very much!! Srich32977, This edition seems minor editon, I edited little. However, your sedulous efforts to improve the articles and me are very good. Thank you, the articles improved in a short time.--Syngmung (talk) 14:15, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
Glad if I could be of some help in finding some more English sources. Keep up the good work. Abby Kelleyite (talk) 16:42, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Rename
All of the Vietnam-related articles that you've created, it would be better if you renamed those articles to the names with Vietnamese diacritical marks. (e.g.: Go Dai massacre to Gò Dài massacre, Ha My massacre to Hà Mỹ massacre). 207.233.67.8 (talk) 21:55, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
- I don't know proper Vietnamese diacritical marks. If you know the proper marks, you would rename the articles.--Syngmung (talk) 15:54, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
In the above article, were the people buried or burned alive? Thank you. GeorgeLouis (talk) 06:14, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
- 산채로 묻힌 buried alive was written both Seoul National University Hospital 2010-06-04 and SEGYE 2006-08-03.--Syngmung (talk) 13:21, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

2012 China anti-Japanese demonstrations
Regarding your change from "Senkaku Islands" to "Senkaku/Diaoyu", please note that this issue has been discussed at great length on Wikipedia, so much so that we eventually had to have the Arbitration Committee intervene. After a community wide RfC, it was decided that "Senkaku Islands" is, in fact, the English name of the islands as used in sources. Furthermore, An uninvolved admin, based on the sanctions put in place by Arbcom, said that the matter may not even be discussed again until 2013, because it was wasting the community's time and every single time it was raised, the result was to use the SI name. Please don't change that name back again. Qwyrxian (talk) 23:15, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks, imformation. I did not want to edit war, so I edited both name. but already settled. ok.--Syngmung (talk) 17:07, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

Personal attacks
Please remember that making personal attacks as you did here and here is unacceptable per WP:NPA. Unsubstantiated claims of nationalist sentiment and vandalism are personal attacks. Thanks, My very best wishes (talk) 14:13, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
- The first link is not personal attack, cos Rape of Nanking is no relation to prostitute for the US military, but you raised. So I replied what you could understand your own comment. The second link is the true, you distorted the sourced contents.[3] The source clarifys the official name. If I left the distorted sourced contents, the edition kept vandalizing the sentence and went against the source. You should think what your doing before you edit the pages.--Syngmung (talk) 15:57, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
- Main purpose of this notice was to simply explain you what counts a personal attack on wikipedia. Rape of Nanking and US military are completely irrelevant. The problem in the first diff was your claim that I have anti-Japanese bias. I do not have one. As about vandalism, please check the policy. Please do not make such claims about any contributors because that will bring you a trouble. Happy editing, My very best wishes (talk) 17:02, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
- OK, I understand. Happy editing, too!--Syngmung (talk) 00:26, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

DYK for Yoon Chang-jung
On 18 May 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Yoon Chang-jung, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the sexual harassment allegations surrounding Korean official Yoon Chang-jung overshadowed Korean president Park Geun-hye's first visit to the USA? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Yoon Chang-jung. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Disambiguation link notification for June 8
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rape during the liberation of France, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Free Press (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
