Korean "-ni"
I'm trying to figure out where to link or redirect Taejon-ni, Korea (location). "Taejon" is an archaic name for Daejeon (city), but I don't know about the "-ni" part. —2606:A000:1126:20CE:0:98F2:CFF6:1782 (talk) 20:03, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
 * There are a number of places in South Korea named Daejeon-ni / 대전리 ko:대전리. Do you have more information that might help narrow it down? —Amble (talk) 20:23, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Hiroshi H. Miyamura earned a Medal of Honor for his actions "Near Taejon-ni, Korea, April 24, and April 25, 1951". —2606:A000:1126:20CE:0:98F2:CFF6:1782 (talk) 20:32, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
 * That is probably the one in Cheongsan-myeon, Yeoncheon County. —Amble (talk) 20:55, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Hmmm... I thought that I'd narrowed it down to Battle of the Imjin River, but now I'm unsure. I don't want to commit WP:OR; any assistance clarifying location(s) in the Hiroshi H. Miyamura article would be appreciated.  — Update: Since Battle of Yultong mentions US 3rd Division, it is the more likely candidate (dates concurrent with Battle of the Imjin River). —2606:A000:1126:20CE:0:98F2:CFF6:1782 (talk) 00:53, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
 * The Daejeon-ni in Cheongsan-myeon, Yeoncheon County would be within 10 miles of either of those battles. Not sure exactly where they were centered or how large their extent. —Amble (talk) 05:29, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Here’s an article from a Korean Ministry of Defense publication reporting on Miyamura that connects him to the Daejeon-ni in Yeoncheon: . That should be a good enough source to confirm we have the correct place without risk of OR. —Amble (talk) 05:43, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
