Notes on existing Wikipedia biographies

Sejong the Great

• no citations in the intro
• [citation needed] next to sentence that says “governed as regent with his son Crown Prince Munjong until his death in either 1442 or 1450” ??
  • “Reign” says “1418-1450” and life at beginning says “15 May 1397- 8 April 1450”
  • “Death and Legacy” says “1450”
• confusing sentence: “executed major ‘legal amendments’ (Korean characters; Chinese characters presumably)”
• Hangul listed as an alphabet – is it?
• Confusing line of succession – why didn’t the throne go to the second son? It says the second son became a monk upon Sejong’s elevation, but why not before? Since there doesn’t appear to be a Wikipedia article on the second son (for good reason), it seems like this information would be relevant here.
• Perhaps translation error but under “Achievements: Starting politics based on Confucianism” the last sentence is highly confusing – “accepting Buddhism by making a test to become a monk (Seung-gwa)” – did he become a monk? Did he write a test that one had to pass before one becomes a monk?
• No citation in “Achievements: Foreign Policy”
• “Achievements: Foreign Policy” also contains a sentence that starts with “But”
• c/e in “Achievements: Strengthening of the Korean military” – “He created various military regulations to strengthen the safety of his kingdom and supported/by supporting the advancement of Korean military technology, including cannon development”.
• c/e in “Achievements: Strengthening of the Korean military” – “…embarked upon the Gihae Eastern Expedition, a military endeavor whose ultimate goal was to remove [] the Japanese pirates who had been operating out of Tsushima Island”
• “Achievements: Science and Technology” – confusing phrasing in “the book … contained information about the different farming techniques that he told scientists to gather in different regions of Korea”
• c/e in “Achievements: Science and Technology” – “During Sejong’s rule” (antecedent confusion)
• Sentence out of place in “Literature” – “Although most government officials and aristocrats opposed usage of hangul, lower classes embraced it, became literate, and were able to communicate with one another in writing” -- chosen to comment on in Talk Page
• Hangul described as “native phonetic alphabet system”
• c/e under “Hangul” – “the large number of characters that needed to be learned”
• NPOV – “his intention was to establish a cultural identity for Korea through its unique script” – how do we know this was his intention?
• not enough citation under Hangul (or overall)
• listed as a level-4 vital article in People
• Talk Page
  • LONG discussion of what the name of the article should be (“King Sejong”? “King Sejong the Great”? “King Sejong of Joseon”? “Sejong the Great?” “King Sejong the Great of Joseon”?)
  • “Wtf… the article seems to have shrunk”
  • Article had been deleted by a single IP address and was then restored
  • Requested move
    • in reference to the name debate – moved from “Sejong the Great of Joseon” to “Sejong the Great”
  • “Lesbian incident… ??” questioning whether it was factual and even if so, whether it belonged in the article
  • “Birth Name” about spelling in modern Korean/15c Korean
  • “Date of Birth” – questions about correct dates of Birth and Death
  • “10k won” – suggests mentioning his presence on the 10k won bill
  • “Korean calendar” – asks if calendar was based on latitude or longitude and states that has changed to longitude (based on logic of how prime meridians work) pending a resolution
  • use of image of King Sejong in question – was eventually deleted because of fair use issue
  • added external links

Jane H. Hill Article Edit

Jane Hassler Hill (born 1939) is an American anthropologist and linguist who has worked extensively with Native American languages of the Uto-Aztecan language family. She received her Ph.D. from UCLA in 1966. She has worked with descriptive linguistics, writing a grammar of the Cupeño language, and has contributed to the fields of linguistic anthropology and socio-linguistics with her works about Nahuatl and about racism in language in her works about mock Spanish and other selective uses of differing Englishes. She has collaborated with Ofelia Zepeda on the Tohono O'odham language and with Kenneth C. Hill on the Nahuatl/Mexicano language (see List of Publications). From 1997 to 1999 she was president of the American Anthropological Association. She has published more than 100 articles and chapters, as well as seven books, including some with linguist Kenneth C. Hill.[1]. In 2009 she retired as Regents' Professor of Anthropology and Linguistics at the University of Arizona.[2].

Work with Native American languages

Focuses mostly on Uto-Aztecan family. Full grammar of Cupeño, and research on Nahuatl/Mexicano, Tohono O'odham, and other Uto-Aztecan languages. In addition to describing the grammar of these languages, Hill work also researched their history and sociopolitical context.[2] Initially drawn to these languages by the immediacy of their expected extinction, Hill continued to analyze their structure and use, as well as the ways in which they are understood by those outside their linguistic community.

Linguistic anthropology and socio-linguistics

Though Hill's intellectual pursuits are diverse, they all embody her self-proclaimed commitment to linguistic and anthropological study that has a real-world impact on people's understanding of languages and the people that speak them.[2] Hill's book Language, Race and White Public Space discusses the way White Americans selectively use language techniques such as racial slurs, linguistic appropriation, and other discourse tools, to subtly retain power and control. [4]. The breadth and type of Hill's interest has been compared to Franz Boas, one of the most prominent figures in linguistic anthropology. [3]
