Talk:First conflict in the Goryeo–Khitan War

Copyright
Hello, Whlee. I was wondering if you wrote, or have permission to use, the content in the First Koryo - Khitan article because it is similar to an article on the Korean History Project website. Thanks -- Kjkolb 05:28, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

I understand what you are talking about, i recongnize the fact that the article is poorly written but i'm very busy these last few days. I will personalize it the following days when i got much more available extra-time. Regards. Whlee 10:24, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Question on Number
I think we should REALLY question the numbers of 800k Khitan troops. Wasn't the total population of Liao only 3 million? WangKon936 1:40, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Diplomatic Ties?
What exactly does "diplomatic relations" mean? Did Goryeo become tributary to Liao? Or does this just mean international trade or what? Can this article be clearer and less vague?

Attribution history
From its creation, this article was a copyright infringement of this source (archived version here). It has had to be deleted accordingly. However, an introductory paragraph was added by other editors which may merit retention. Other contributors added formatting or minor changes, but none substantial enough for GFDL attribution concerns. Attribution for substantial contribution to the opening paragraph, which I have restored here, is as follows. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:37, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
