Would you mind reorganizing the format of Murayama's "publications" so that it might be easier to read the list of his works. Thanks! Eleanorge (talk) 03:48, 30 March 2017 (UTC) Eleanor Ge[reply]

Hi!, so it's looking like you've made some progress. I notice though that some of the sentences have a tendency to run, e.g. "Studied the oldest text document from the Korean peninsula, known as Samguk Sagi, or 三国史記 which is phonetic Ateji, meaning The Recorded History of the Three Kingdoms." I would personally put "Sumguk Sagi" alomg with the characters in parentheses, and get rid of the part about Ateji (it's not really relevant information here). Give the English translation first, and link it if possible. It might also be worth looking at how you cite page numbers in the text itself. I would recommend removing them and letting your synthesis/paraphrasing speak for themselves. If people are curious, they can refer to the footnotes. (Also the final paragraph of "major contributions" is missing a terminal period).

Most importantly though, all of this is just in your sandbox. You article is a great improvement on the existing one. You should start moving it into mainspace! Seeaphone (talk) 02:00, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
