You have to change the wording.
Is "very violent,"[6] "in dark ignorance from the citation quivalent to "criminals"? You just reverted to the wrong version without fully reading the reference. And why are also supporting the socket pipeline rather using the original Chongryon?--Appletrees (talk) 14:30, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Replied . Of course, pages are always reverted to The Wrong Version, so it's not my fault. cab (talk) 14:39, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Gary Locke
The author of the article doesn't describe any of the letters quoted as "racist" either. She only quotes a politician describing them as such. So if we're going to be sticklers for the original research rule, should we edit the article to say "Susan Paynter, a columnist at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, suggested that [threats characterized as "racist"] and insults that Locke and his family received, especially the large number which came after his rebuttal to George W. Bush's 2003 State of the Union address, played a role in Locke's decision to leave office after two terms.

If not, and we're just going to label it racist without attribution because it obviously is a racist letter, then what's the problem with the description of "illogical" which is at least equally true?

 * I admit that the 'korean central asians' move was wrong. However, i do think that "Korean Chinese" is better than "Koreans in China". It is more accurate and fits with the laws of english. Crystalclearchanges (talk) 19:49, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

re: hanja
I do for the most part. Problem is there is too much biased information with negative inferences as well as the fact that almost nothing in Hanja, Hangul, anything Korean related, has any references.

Unfornuately editors believe they are widely accepted and feel they are valid even without citations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.238.13.18 (talk • contribs) 10:53 UTC, 15 February 2008

What, pray tell, is going on with that article? An IP address posts an AFD, a registered user proclaims it a "fake" or a "test" and sets up a second one, which is then marked as a "duplicate" and we're referred back to the first "fake" one.

The article is currently pointing to an AFD that's marked as closed as being a duplicate. It's like there are 2 or 3 versions of the AFD running around. That's the first time I can recall seeing something like that. Could you [the admin] please mark the article with the correct AFD and tell everyone to stop messing around with it? Thank you. :) Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 10:12, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Tiananmen Square protests
Doesn't it? It seems that the two terms are used in a fairly confused way in general speech. When people talk about the "Tiananmen Square massacre", they are often talking about the whole series of events building up to the crackdown. Real life language is not clear cut, and inference from individual words is original research. --PalaceGuard008 (Talk) 12:51, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

In searching for information on SS Kiche Maru I've found a lot of links that would be relevant to the typhoon that caused the shipwreck. Many of these are official government sources. The New York Times links require Proquest but you may be able to get the same article from the free archives. Happy researching!
