I see you've split off the Seven-Year War campaignbox; could you please add whichever campaignboxes you've created to the list at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Battles/Campaignboxes? Thank you. LordAmeth 15:32, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Copyright

Hello, Whlee. I was wondering if you wrote, or have permission to use, the content in the First Koryo - Khitan article because it is similar to an article on the Korean History Project website. Thanks -- Kjkolb 05:28, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

I understand what you are talking about, i recongnize the fact that the article is poorly written but i'm very busy these last few days. I will personalize it the following days when i got much more available extra-time. Regards. Whlee 10:24, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Castles in Japan

Hi Whlee,

Thank you for adding information to the article Castles in Japan. May I suggest creating a new article? Japanese castles in Korea would be a good title. It would be very informative and valuable. You can copy directly from Castles in Japan into the new article. I always enjoy creating new articles and hope you do, too.

Thanks again,

Hello Korean editor

안녕하세요

Hello, it seems to me that you know several languages (?).

It is great to (finally) see a Korean editor who is very enthusiastic about Korean articles!

Check out Portal:Korea for Korean stubs or needed articles. This is just one way to help out.

Thanks for helping out at the Imjin War or Korea itself. It is a heavy burden for me to do all the work because none of the editors are willing to write in detailed sections about the war. This is also the case for Korea and its history.

...Unlike the Japan article, which is extremely outstanding with many editors. I hope we can bring the Korea article equal or above to the Japan article. That is my overall goal and I hope we can do it.

Thanks, Good friend100 17:38, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Anju and Olga

Hi, Whlee! I think you misunderstood the nature of my edit. I never argued against the fact that Anju existed many years before modern Olga or advocated that Anju and Olga are the same thing. My point was that there was nothing there by the times Russians showed up in 1860, as Anju ceased to exist long before then. Now, I don't have any references handy to back that up at the moment, but from what I know Russians founded Olga in an uninhabited location. Of course, modern Olga is not the same as ancient Anju, but since as Anju existed on the same territory as Olga (and since you yourself think that mentioning this in the article about Olga is appropriate), it's only fair to inform readers about this. The way your edit is constructed, however, readers might get the impression that ancient Anju eventually developed into modern Olga, which is incorrect. If you have suggestions as to how to word the article better, I'll gladly hear them out.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:07, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! It sounds a lot better now.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:32, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Administrative divisions of Primorsky Krai

Hi, Whlee! This is a courtesy note to let you know that I reverted your recent edits to administrative divisions of Primorsky Krai and left an explanation here.

If the topic of administrative divisions of Russia interests you and you wish to improve the article mentioned above, please take a look at administrative divisions of Adygea (and at its version which is currently being revised). That one is a featured list, and it should give you ideas as to in which direction the improvements of other articles of the series should go.

Feel free to contact me should you have any questions. Best,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 19:58, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Districts of Khabarovsk Krai

Sure. The most southern one is, as you correctly determined, Bikinsky District. The one immediately to the north is Vyazemsky District. The big one to the north and east is Lazo District. The one to the northwest of it (bordering with China) is Khabarovsky District. The one to the north of Lazo District and Khabarovsky District (and which is about the same size as Lazo District) is Nanaysky District. Finally, the one south-east of Nanaysky District is Sovetsko-Gavansky District. Verkhnebureinsky District is the one bordering Amur Oblast in the west and the Jewish AO in the south. If you follow the western border of Khabarovsk Krai , it will be the seventh district from south to north (the biggest one in southern Khabarovsk Krai).

Let me know if you need anything else!—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 20:32, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

French wikipedia

As a French Parisian user of wikipedia, I have seen that you live in France and have also contributed to some French pages. I think that French wikipedia pages about Korean history are very poor, so I would like to know whether you would be interested by a cooperation concerning the French version of wikipedia (history, creation of a gate and a wikiproject and so on). Sorry for having spoken about it on this page, but I didn't find an email valid address to write you directly. Sincerely, Kim976 10:31, 23 February 2007 (UTC).

안녕 하심니까. 저는 빠리지안 사람 아니구요 암튼... I could be interested in your cooperation. but i'm not familiar with wiki-tools yet such wikiproject. Therefore i'm wating for the portal and then i would add articles once achieved. RegardsWhlee 13:34, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

안녕 하심니까. Thank you for your answer. I am not much more familiar with wikiproject and other wikitools. To begin with, it would be possible to make links to pages which would have to be completed such as "Invasions japonaises de la Corée" on fr:wikipedia, if you could contribute. Best regards Kim976 20:34, 24 February 2007 (UTC). Hum... just one question : why having written Paris with "빠" : it is the North Korean standard writing, isn't it ? Kim976 12:08, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

I will contribute to French version of Imjin Waeran later. Paris is often written by Korean living in France like "빠리" instead of "파리". i dunno whether i replied or not to your request. Whlee 17:21, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

As a matter of fact, "빠" much more corresponds to the precise pronunciationKim976 18:10, 7 March 2007 (UTC).

Dalnegorsk

Hi there! Just wanted to drop you a quick note regarding this and other similar edits of yours. What ] means is that the article you are categorizing is the main article in the Balhae category. Normally, there is only one article marked such, and in this case it would be Balhae itself. Dalnegorsk and all other places of Primorsky Krai should be categorized simply ], i.e., without a sort key.

Bonjour

안녕하십니까 이우호씨. Bonjour monsieur Woo. Je suis un nationalist libre de coree. I just met you on the WP:Korea page, so I just wanted to say hello to you. We have a weird concidence in similarities. I can speak Korean and French also, and etc. Since you can speak numerous languages, would you like to join the AIW (Association of International Wikipedians)? My goal as an IW (International Wikipedian) is to make all versions of Misplaced Pages contain the same articles, therefore sharing the knowledge not just with one's country, but the entire world. Although it will take a lot of time and effort to make all Wikipedias "same" and global, if many people contribute, it will come true. The only thing that I do not like about Misplaced Pages is that each versions of Misplaced Pages is "seperated" and not united as one. Would you like to help create Misplaced Pages a global Misplaced Pages? If you have any thoughts in beocomming an IW, please contact me on my talk page. I have an account on the French version of Misplaced Pages, known as Orthodoxi, and I also have accounts on sevral other versions of Misplaced Pages. Merci. Orthodoxy 22:40, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

I can't believe you actually went through my user page history and counted how many times it was vandalized :)) Last time I used this box I counted ten times; has it been that many more since then? Wow.

History of Manchuria

Sorry for the delayed response; while I have my archived talk watchlisted, I don't check back very often. In other words, I saw your note but promptly forgot about it :)

Anyway, I think what you did here will indeed be of great help in organizing articles about the history of the Far East. It is a far better approach than the one I took way back in 2004, when I wrote history of Primorsky Krai, which, for the most part, has nothing to do with Primorsky Krai proper. Back then, however, there really wasn't much in the English Misplaced Pages on Manchuria, so Primorsky Krai history seemed to be the best place to put this information. Now, of course, Misplaced Pages grew and many topics which were previously not covered are there.

By the way, would you be interested in splitting history of Primorsky Krai properly? What that article really needs is a (very) brief overview of pre-Russian history, with links to main articles, and a solid body of text on history of actual Primorsky Krai (i.e., from 1938 onward). Maybe this will finally give me a push to finish what I started in 2004 :) Best,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:19, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I will most certainly help where I can, but please note that my knowledge of the history of Manchuria is rather limited and whatever I know, I know from the Russian point of view. All in all, I know something about the part of history that's related to the territory of Primorsky Krai, but very little beyond that. Also, I cannot read any of the Asian languages.

That the reason why it is very intersting to get Russian point of view !Khabarovsk Krai and beyond have also their own history, they are written in Cyrillics but the problem is that words pronouciations are Tungusic but anyway i'm "confident" about Russians sources.

As for the Cyrillic alphabet, learning it is quite easy. I'm sure you'll be able to fluently read it after less than a week of flashcard drilling. You won't, of course, understand much, but you'll have sufficient knowledge to figure out that "Вяземский", for example, is "Vyazemsky". It's only 33 letters, and a good chunk of them looks the same as the letters in the Latin alphabet. It took me about a month to learn how to read hiragana and katakana a while back; Cyrillics is easier to learn by at least a degree of magnitude.

Sure it would be easy to "read Cyrillics" alphabet remeber i tried to reorganize Administration divisions of Prmiorye but as you taught me on that article admnistration system was a bit different, i did not know that because of my lacking knowledge in Russian, of course, on the other hand Russian is your mother tongue, we are therefore able complementing ou skills each other along with other Wikipedian in keeping a NPOV and communicating via English too thanks too Misplaced Pages !

To summarize, here is what I can help with: 1) helping figure out Cyrillics and location of objects on the territory of Russia; and 2) administrative and maintenance tasks (moving/renaming/splitting articles). Just let me know whenever you need help with any of these. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 17:24, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Sources

Interesting, the Russian Misplaced Pages uses "Пархэ" instead of "Бохай". I did not see the former used much in the books I read.

As for the FEGI source, that one is most certainly reliable. Do you need that passage translated, or just need a general idea of what it's about?—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 18:39, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

It will help you to understand balhae/bohai culture and what occrus at the moment on Talk:Balhae

As you just quote here start the problem of "渤海"'s hisdtory :

- pronounced Balhae by Korean (Пархэ) - or pronounced Bohai by Chinese (Бохай) :) Have fun ! It would be interesting to get Russian and Tungusic (aboriginies/autochtones) peoples point of view. I hope they would be neutral in that conflict of ideology.Whlee 18:47, 30 March 2007 (UTC) That the reason why i would like to learn Russian and Tungusic languages like Manchu

History of Manchuria template

I think renaming it to "Northeast China" is too contentious and in the end not going to work. To address the points you have made, which I believe are valid, how about reverting the name to "History of Manchuria", and providing sub-defintions of "present day Northeast China" and "present day Primosrky Krai", and any other modern political/geographical entities that historic Manchuria are divided into? Cydevil38 00:49, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

have a look at those templates : we are trying to find an outcome :

-Template:History of Northeast China

-Template:History of Russian Manchuria

RegardsWhlee 09:54, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

The History of Manchuria template has been only inserted as a compromise to put an end to a revert war, which I believe was at the cost of the integrity of the article. An independent historiography of Manchuria is a minority view. And going further to divide this into two other non-historic entities, I believe, is only worse. In other words, treating Northeast China and Russian Manchuria as historic entities is even more controversial than treating Manchuria as a historic entity. Additionally, using a "Northeast China" history template would be to some extent adopting China's Northeast Project. Cydevil38 23:58, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Anyways, I'll partially revert your changes, while addressing some of your valid points. Cydevil38 00:01, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

The History of Manchuria was offered in place for insistance of some CPOV editors that a History of China should be placed on a kingdom that is considered by most NPOV sources to be non-Chinese. Having some historiography of Northeast China would be doing serious disservice to the integrity of Misplaced Pages, as it's a very modern political entity, not a historic or geographic entity. It would be like having a history template of "South Korea" or "Siberia". The majority consensus was on a History of Manchuria, not Northeast China. Cydevil38 00:34, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

About your Manchurian historiography, I think it's pretty good, you've put a lot of effort in to it. However, I think it's missing some important elements, such as proto-Korean ethnicities like the Ye and the Maek tribes. Also, I think it'd be a good idea to include some important archaeological entities like Hongshan and Xiajiadian cultures, like the Jeulmun and Mumun pottery culture in the History of Korea template.

Priamurye

Hi, Whlee! What you described as "zenglobing" is called "Priamurye" in Russian. This term, however, does not refer to any particular entity, nor does it have defined borders. It is mostly used in history and geography books to refer to the area around the Amur River.

As for the Russian Far East (RFE), that is a geographic term as well, not an official entity of any sort. In general, RFE is considered to include all Russian territories to the east of Siberia. Sometimes, however, Far Eastern Federal District (an officially defined entity) is referred to as "RFE", which is probably where confusion lies. It would not really be correct to say that Far Eastern Federal District "includes" RFE (at least not formally), as the terms apply to different concepts (the former being a modern political entity, and the latter—a geographical and historical concept). Hope this helps. Best,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 19:42, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
