Do (administrative division)

[edit]

Hi friends. I came across the page Do (administrative division) and I was hoping someone here could add some relevant references as it has been unsourced for a long time now. Thanks and good luck JMWt (talk) 13:33, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

An article about a word seems like a candidate for deletion to me… WP:DICT. We already have an article on province RachelTensions (talk) 15:06, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Recent activities

[edit]

I've been really pleased with how much progress we've been making on administrative things, thank you! I think now is one of the most productive times for the project we've ever had.

Summarizing recent happenings here.

Have been updating Wikipedia:WikiProject Korea/Reliable sources.

Added to the MOS:KO:

  • MOS:HANJASOURCE: Make sure to provide sources for Hanja. Chinese-language sources are less reliable for this, because of MOS:HANJAHANZI.
  • MOS:KO-ETHNICITY: Avoid using "Korean" to describe things that are specifically North or South Korean. E.g. South Korean company Naver, not Korean company Naver. Also, avoid using "Korean-American" etc in infobox and lead; that's an ethnicity and not a nationality.
  • MOS:KO-BIRTHPLACE: When describing a birth place, don't use the modern equivalent of the birthplace. Use the name of the birthplace at the time of their birth, e.g. a person born in 1500 was born in "Joseon" and not "South Korea" (although you should use the current most relevant article title and not the contemporary spelling; e.g. "Busan" and not "Pusan").
  • MOS:KO-FAMILYTREE: Make sure family trees are sourced, and avoid putting excessive details in them (extended relatives). We're currently pruning excessive unsourced details in these; this affected many historical people pages.
  • MOS:KO-FIRSTSENTENCE: Rewrote this to be easier to read, logic is the same. How to organize the first sentence and parentheses of article.

Oh and a minor note: we recently fully evaluated the importance and quality of every article in WikiProject Korea! I think this maybe is the first time ever that we've accomplished this.
