Hi! Could you briefly translate this article to Korean? Thanks. --Untifler 20:57, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Wikimedia Quarto

Hi Puzzlet,

I saw your note about helping with the newsletter. How would you like to help? We certainly could use translation into Korean, and we need someone to write about what is going on on the ko: wikipedia. Please leave a note at m:Talk:WQ/Team. +sj.+ 01:16, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Misplaced Pages's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to ] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to ] all my contributions to any ], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

Pyeongyang

Hi! I saw your message on Seoul; however I have an unrelated issue and I thought since you are at Korean Misplaced Pages, I can communicate with you. The Korean Misplaced Pages at present lists Pyeongyang under the title Pyeongyang teukbyeolsi. However, just as the English article for Pyongyang has mentioned, in North Korea it is actually labelled as "jikhalsi" and a Google search on KCNA, the official agency, confirms it. I don't know enough Korean however to try to communicate with those who worked on the Pyeongyang article over at the Korean Misplaced Pages, so I was wondering if you could help out? The history there says a user called Caffelice has insisted that the teukbyeolsi designation is correct, and indeed I see your name in the history there too.

For your convenience, here is the section in the English article about the teukbyeolsi/jikhalsi designation.

The city is classified as a Directly Governed City (Chik'alshi), not a Special City as Seoul in South Korea. In fact, the North Korean national newspaper and broadcasting say "Pyongyang Chik'alshi". Some sources, most of them come from South Korea, refer the city as a Special City; however these are the old sources. Moreover, South Korea has corrected the city as a Directly Governed City, according to a South Korean newspaper in 1994.

By the way, I am actually quite convinced that in North Korea, such guyeok names as 용성, 역포 and 낙랑 are actually written as 룡성, 력포 and 락랑 in the North's style of Korean... but I am not really an expert!

Thanks! -- KittySaturn 22:38, 2005 Feb 26 (UTC)

Gurmukhi

Thanks for editing the Gurmukhi page - it's been in need of a cleanup for a while. Feel free to use info from my web site (http://guca.sourceforge.net/) if you need to. I'll add more when I get time! Sukh 12:56, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

After looking at it more closely, what are all those letters added? They don't seem to be proper transliterations? I see "The ASCII code version of the script is sometimes used." I personally haven't a clue what you mean by this... Sukh 12:58, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I'm just learning Punjabi language. In searching for references I can use, I found Punjabi-English dictionary web service like this and this. It seems that the sites use ASCII letters that correspond Gurmukhi letters one-by-one. And I think the ASCII version of the writing system is used locally in some sites like here. --Puzzlet Chung 14:13, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Ah, I see how you're getting confused. What you see as ASCII letters aren't actually ASCII as such! What older sites used to do (before the widespread use of Unicode) is use ASCII with special fonts that turned the Latin letters into Gurmukhi. So in fact, viewers of the site do see Gurmukhi if they have appropriate fonts installed - nobody actually reads the Latin text because it makes no sense. Try downloading the fonts and then viewing the site to see the actual text. I'm going to remove the Latin equivalents on the Gurmukhi page. Sukh 14:51, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Ah, I see the way I've got confused, the non-Loman fonts. But, if it's another binary expression of Gurmukhi other than Unicode, I still think it is worth mentioning in the article. When you give criteria in Gurmukhi to search engines, you'll probably want to search for both Unicode and alternative version of the text, because they do use both versions of Gurmukhi on the web. Misplaced Pages article could be a reference to the two expressions. --Puzzlet Chung 07:41, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
There is no point giving the Latin text version because SO many different fonts are used with their own keyboard layout that it is confusing. This has been one of the major problems with Gurmukhi on computers so far - every site wants to use their own font/keyboard layout. I've mentioned that proprietary fonts are used - you are welcome to expand on that. Sukh 12:11, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Translation

Puzzlet, can you help me in translating this article in the link about Daemado? I know very little Korean and I was hardly able to understand what they are talking about.

Tan 19:53, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Another request

Hello Puzzlet! The third Wikimedia Quarto is coming out soon; can you help translate it? We have a number of finished sections ready for translation.

Cheers, +sj + 21:07, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

Notice board

Hello PuzzletChung! I'm posting here to let you know that there is a new notice board for Korea-related topics. This board is a central place to discuss all matters pertaining to Misplaced Pages's coverage of Coreana. I hope you'll drop by and help it to take shape. -- Visviva 15:09, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for the information. --Puzzlet Chung 15:24, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Need help for my multilanguage project www.cucumis.org

Hi, I need help for my translation help project. It's a community of translators that help each others. The translations value is evaluated trough a system of points that allows to avoid abuse of the system. The user interface has been translated in many languages with this system, but it's very hard for korean, chinese, vietnamese, Hindi and north of europe languages. It's a young project and I hope you will like it! Thanks for your help! JP

GS

Hi, I notice you added Goldman Sachs to the GS disambig page when it was already there. Whilst it is definitely a valid entry (unlike some contrived and obscure computer game refs), we don't need it twice(!) Please check before you add next time. Thanks! Fourohfour 20:40, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

The first block is one MONTH?

Chung, this is 68.102.193.78 from the Korean Misplaced Pages. Why did you make my block one MONTH long? I thought the first blocks are 24 hours, and that was my 1st block on the Korean Misplaced Pages.

I know "Kim Il-sung City" might have sounded offensive to some, but why should "Roh Moo-hyun City" (Pyongyang's supposed post-Reunification name) offend you? Wouldn't South Koreans want to embrace that?

But anyways, how were those jokes on Korea's Misplaced Pages severe enough to merit a one-MONTH block, instead of the usual 24 hours?

Other than that, is 1 month the minimum over there? If so, why?? --Shultz 15:58, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

There are many kinds of vandalism besides offensive activities. And yes, one month is usual in Korean Misplaced Pages. --Puzzlet Chung 16:04, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
Here, the first block is 24 hours. Do you mean 1 month is the most lenient block on the Korean Misplaced Pages? Why is it that much stricter (more harsh, in case you don't know what "stricter" means)? --Shultz 16:14, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
Shultz, you were vandalizing over in the Korean wikipedia? I'm disappointed in you. --Maru (talk) Contribs 23:09, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
So Chung, is 1 Month the minimum blocking duration or was it because redirecting Seoul to "Kim Il-sung City" and making a subsequent redirect of "Kim Il-sung City" to Seoul significantly more offensive than normal? --Shultz 09:56, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
No Korean Misplaced Pages user thinks that's just kidding. it's pretty offensive - to be blocked long terms. --Klutzy 09:09, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
So if I made an "innocent" joke edit instead, like changing "Sokcho" to "Soakchow", rather than renaming Seoul to "Kim Il-sung City", I would've gotten a shorter block?
Why do you think renaming Seoul to Kim Il-sung City much more offensive than making a random joke edit?
Shortly after, I also renamed Pyongyang to "Roh Moo-hyun City" and that couldn't have been offensive at all. In fact, South Koreans even wish for Pyongyang to be renamed. (Don't they?) --Shultz 04:15, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Electrolysis project

Hello, i am User:HappyApple and my interest is all related to chemistry, hence i am pursuing B.Sc. at National University of San Marcos. i have checked to Electrolysis article in Korean Misplaced Pages ] and it has been started by a vandal with this ip, 130.149.174.10 (probably from germany) saying this :hi,wie gehts? and i have immediately reverted it by editing a proper introduction of electrolysis in korean but my grammar on korean language is not good, the article looks like orphan and it does not have an stub message on the bottom i think. I believe it is not well written, will you take a look at it?. HappyApple 00:28, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Done. Thank you for telling this to me. --Puzzlet Chung 01:01, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Does "남북통일" equal "Korean reunification"?

On the Korean reunification article, the translation box (on the upper right corner) says that "Korean Reunification" in Korean is "nambuktongil", or "남북통일". When I searched for that phrase and found nambuktongil.com, it appeared to only describe culinary delicacies. Was the user mistaken? Since you're a more authoritative Korean, I thought I'd have you come visit that article and correct it. Please do; I'd appreciate it. --Shultz 03:33, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Dr. Hwang Woo-Suk article

Hello, annyong haseyo ~ , i am user:HappyApple you know me already. I have been recently started to contribuiting in Hwang Woo-Suk article with some pictures and fixing links and something particular happened in english wikipedia just these days. User:WAS 4.250 among user:Dysmorodrepanis and user:220.72.214.248 ; i believe they were vandalizing the article by adding "biased" points of view about this korean scientist, i do not think is fair or objetive, because they have deleted content which is valuable for the article like, doctor's personal life and how society looks at him. The quality of this article has been lowered i think, i will put the lack of neutrality sign at the top of the article but i wish you take a look at it. Cheers.HappyApple 19:30, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Translation or something (for 싱하형)

Hi, I saw you created the article for 싱하형 on the Korean wikipedia, and the same subject appears here, but it's in Korean (and I sadly have no idea what it's about). I put it up in Misplaced Pages:Pages needing translation into English and was hoping you could help determine what the article is about (or even translate it if you have time). - Bobet 02:10, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

copyright status

from my talk page: Could you tell me the copyright status of ko:Image:Deoksugung palace.jpg? --Puzzlet Chung 01:49, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Honestly, I can't remember. It's not my picture, so my guess is that I just found a picture somewhere and posted it. You may go ahead and delete it if you think it's in violation of some copyright. Drunkasian 04:30, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Template:Legend

Hello,

I've seen that you changed the template:legend to use the "onlyinclude" tag, instead of the "includeonly" tag. I don't know why you did this, but now there's a black box incorrectly drawn in the top of the template description page. Would you mind checking it out ? Thanks. --Hdante 11:40, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

onlyinclude is integration of includeonly and noinclude. It shouldn't be disturbed with interwiki bots and some other things. The box at the top seems to be a software bug. I will check it out. --Puzzlet Chung 12:01, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
