Your recent editing history at Battle royale game shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. -- ferret (talk) 18:19, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi Sanctusune! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor&#32;at Gim Yu-sin that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

 * Looking at the Help:minor edit section my edits were indeed, minor. as in changing the romanization of a word from one to another, it did not change the meaning of the name, nor are there necessarily those of dispute since my edits follow Revised Romanization as outlined in Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Korean). If there is a different source you can link that directly addresses the topic of the naming conventions from different languages into English and whether it constitutes as minor or not please link them and I will adjust accordingly. As such, Help: minor edits does not address this, particular type of edit. However, the moving of this page from Kim Yu-Shin to Gim Yu-sin was not minor and in that case, was an accident. In that instance I can understand that I dropped the ball there. Sanctusune (talk) 06:53, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 6
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Sejong the Great, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kim Jong-seo. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Romanization
I understand why Revised Romanization should be used, but on pages about monarchical/colonial era Korea, we often encounter people sharing the same surname (and often the same clan), but the spellings differ. For example, the father of Queen Soheon is commonly cited as "Shim On" in western sources, while according to Wikipedia rules, the rest of his family should be "Sim". This is confusing for a person who is unfamiliar with Korean naming conventions and romanization rules. So is it possible to use a common spelling when writing the same surname on a page? Like in the case of Yeonsangun's family, where his wife and maternal grandmother are both named 신, but with different spellings: "Queen Shin" (again, as she is generally called in the western world) versus "Lady Sin"?

 * @Maria0215 Now the commonality of a name's spelling is tricky. Wikipedia:naming conventions (Korean) is very strict with using the revised romanization, as such, so am I. With the example you just listed, I did some research and find that you are correct. And the naming conventions do specify if the sources used have a common spelling go with that. I won't change the spellings if this is the case. I have gone through your edits before and corrected them but if you make some notes to your edits, (an edit summary if you will) to point out the common spelling then I will leave them alone. By default however, if an edit has been done or one of my edits have been undone without an explanation, I will just continue to correct the spelling, but if you make a small summary by saying (spelling was chosen based on sources) then I will leave them alone. The only exception are those family names of Kim (Gim) and Kwon (Gwon) most of the western sources that use these names have sufficiently shifted over using the Revised Romanization (see the article on Gwon Yul for an example). I always check edit summaries and talk pages before I edit and if there is nothing there to suggest another spelling is more common, I default to the Revised Romanization.

Regarding recent page moves
@Sanctusune, WP:NCKO clearly states that McCune–Reischauer for North Korean and pre-1945 Korean names. As Kang Kam-ch'an and Kang Cho are both from the pre-1945 era, they should be titled via McCune–Reischauer. Do not make major page moves without a discussion. ⁂CountHacker (talk) 08:48, 21 April 2024 (UTC)


 * @CountHacker It must have changed since last I looked at it a few years back Sanctusune (talk) 02:24, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
