Talk:Seoul–Pyongyang hotline

Apparent inconsistency in dates?

[edit]

The article says "North Korea disconnected the hotline between 11 March and 3 July 2013" and then goes on to say "North Korea reopened the hotline on 7 June 2013." OK, so was the line reopened on 7 June or 3 July 2013? The Reuters article cited implies there are two separate hotlines, saying "North Korea had stopped responding to calls on the Red Cross hotline in March. Another hotline, used by military officials, remains down." --Muzilon (talk) 12:16, 27 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Name change?

[edit]

As there's not one single hotline between Seoul and Pyongyang (like other hotlines between capitals/heads of government), but merely a range of phone lines, I would suggest to rename this article to Panmunjom hotlines, which reflects the fact that most of the hotlines run through that border town. It is also the name of the Chinese Wikipedia article about this issue. Greetings, P2Peter (talk) 04:11, 17 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
