Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Lady Ye of Goguryeo, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Queen.

Images of Poongsan Corporation's K279, K277, K307 and K310 ammunition now can be used for the article edit

The file was renamed "120 mm and 155 mm ammunition of Poongsan Corporation.jpg" by requesting a renaming of images that had long been mistaken for Turkish 120 mm and 155 mm ammunition in Altay (Kampfpanzer) and MKE articles. This image can now be used as a legitimate license in K9 articles.

M4A3E8 designation edit

Back in June '22 you added to the M4 Sherman page a bit about the M4A3E8 in Korea. It said the M4A3(76)w HVSS was redesignated M4A3E8 post WW2. This at first caused a lot of confusion with me, as your added source does state this, but it contradicts most other websites and such. After some digging I found R.P. Hunnicutt's book on the history of the Sherman (don't recall the exact name right now) states the E8 designation was given in 1943 and no redesignation happened post WW2.

Just thought I'd let you know to prevent any further spreading of this little piece of misinformation DynCoder (talk) 08:02, 5 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

The KAI KF-21 Boramae article needs a major rework edit

KAI KF-21 Boramae is almost the only fighter development project currently underway with transparent disclosure of development schedules and development processes, and unlike previous T-50 Golden Eagles, most of the work is carried out independently by KAI. Nevertheless, most of the content of the article deals with various controversies and Indonesia's delayed payment of contributions.

A major rework is required to deal with the clear topic of the article. We need to clean or delete the Project partners, and Controversies sections that cover the most content in the current article and contain irrelevant or unnecessary references to the topic of the article, and add more on history and design.

I can't do this alone and I'm still bad at writing articles in English. I also need your help because I don't know about general aviation terms. I'm currently focusing on image and video source work in Wikimedia Commons, so there's too much to do. If you are willing to rework KF-21 I can get various sources for you. You'll do well this time as well as you did a great rework of the K1 88-Tank article before.🙂 Gasiseda (talk) 15:03, 28 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Oh holy lord. I checked the development video of KT-1 and T-50, and you have to finish those in order to master KF-21 page. Someone with knowledge of prior generations is really required. All connected. For English / Grammar, you can use "grammar checker" online. They do really good job to make sentences correctly. Kadrun (talk) 17:45, 28 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, KT-1 and T-50 also need more work, but this year we will put greater priority on creating images and video sources at Wikimedia Commons and improving Korean military article of the Stub level. The aviation sector is not something I'm usually interested in, but I've recently become a little interested. I'm currently collecting sources to improve KF-21 articles. This summer, I will go to Sacheon Air Force Base, where the flight test of KF-21 is going on, camp, stay for two or three weeks, and film a video of the flight of KF-21 and upload it to Wikimedia Commons. I will share the sources I collected with you through this talk page. The KF-21 article needs improvement, but this will be done slowly after gathering enough sources. Don't feel too pressured. Gasiseda (talk) 19:03, 28 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
You did really good job keeping the sources alive and archive. Amazing. What I want to actually do is to do Korean history. I did huge deep dive in Korean history using the certified sources such as Korean History Database, and others. More I do research, whole East Asian history is fake. Three Kingdoms of Korea started in East China. Too many evidences led me to believe this way. And I don't even use those 환뽕 books. Kadrun (talk) 17:47, 28 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
In Wikipedia, archaeology and ancient history are accepted only when proven research data are presented as sources, so I don't like it very much, but it is amazing that you are interested in Korean history.👍 As you know, East Asian history is a controversial field because it presents research materials that scholars of Korea, China, and Japan interpret in their favor, so you should approach it patiently. You should be wary of Pseudohistory (유사역사학) such as Local History (향토역사학) and Hwandan Gogi (환뽕주의), which come out through original research in Korea. I wouldn't be interested in this exhausting field😂 Gasiseda (talk) 19:18, 28 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Additional sources for updating articles edit

Dear Kadrun. It's late, but happy new year. 새해에도 한국의 군사 분야의 영문 위키백과의 기사들을 작성하고 업데이트할 계획이지만 관련 기사들의 출처가 부족해서 향후 5개월 동안은 새로운 기사의 작성이나 업데이트 보다는 기존 기사들의 아카이브화 작업 (제일 골치 아픈 깨진 링크들을 하나하나 일일이 찾아서 복구해야하는 K9 Thunder같은 300개가 넘는 레퍼런스가 첨부된 기사들)과 Wikimedia Commons에 이미지를 추가하는 작업만 할 것 같습니다.

또한 최근 국방과학연구소의 홈페이지에서 2016년도에 홍보책자로 제공된 PDF파일에서 기존 기사의 대대적인 개선에 도움이 될 만한 소스들을 많이 찾았는데, 해당 PDF파일의 내용에는 현무, 천마, 천궁, 구룡, 해성과 같은 미사일 및 로켓 시스템, K200, K21, K9 Thunder, K2 Black Panther와 같은 기갑차량, 백상어, 청상어, 노봉, K-1 기본훈련기와 같은 해상 및 항공 플랫폼과 RPC-999K(최초의 국산 야전용 무전기)나 KGPS(한국형 포수조준경)같은 그 동안 많이 알려지지 않았던 국산무기체계에 대한 새로운 내용들이 많이 있어서 기사를 개선하는데 도움이 될 것 같습니다. 해당 PDF 파일은 아래에 링크해두었으니 천천히 살펴보시면 되겠습니다. 오늘부터 저는 K2, K9, KF-21 보라매와 같은 기사들에 대한 Wikimedia Commons 이미지 작업을 주로 할 예정으로 기사에 대한 업데이트는 Kadrun님께 안심하고 맡기고 떠납니다. 2023년에도 더 나은 기사를 위해 힘써주셔서 감사했습니다.

아뇨. 정말 고생 하셨습니다. 매번 어떻게 저 많은 걸 관리하고 정리하시는 지 감탄할 나름입니다. 전 개인적인 일로 바쁜 나머지 수정작업을 할 겨를이 없습니다. 아직 KF-21 건은 기억하고 있으니 시간이 나면 K1EX/K1AX 문서와 KT-1 부터 싸그리 정리할 예정입니다. 2023년 고생하셨습니다. Kadrun (talk) 18:14, 11 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
한국 무기 역사적 부분에 대해서는 오원철 비서님이 쓰신 "한국형 경제건설" 5권(?) 과 한경에 쓰인 회고록이 가장 중요합니다. 70~80년대 무기 개발과 수출을 담고 있는데 전 구할수가 없습니다. 이것 찾아보시면 어느정도 찾으시는 답들이 나올겁니다. Kadrun (talk) 18:16, 11 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
중고서점에서 국내에 몆권도 안되는 고 오원철 경제수석이 집필한 한국형 경제건설 5권을 찾아서 샀는데 책의 두께도 두껍고 내용이 방대하더군요 1960년대부터 시작된 국내 방위산업에 역사가 세세하게 나와있어서 솔직히 조금 놀랐기도 했고 그냥 단순히 소장용으로만 보관하고 있기에는 아깝다는 생각이 들어서 책을 디지털 스캔 방식으로 PDF로 제작하려고 하고 있는데 책의 내용과 페이지 분량도 너무 많아서 완성된 PDF파일은 아마 4월쯤에 작업이 끝날 것 같습니다. 책을 한장씩 칼로 잘라서 일일이 수작업으로 스캔을 해야하기 때문에 시간이 좀 오래 걸릴 것 같습니다. 디지털 제본 작업이 끝나는대로 여기에다가 PDF파일을 링크로 답글을 달아드리겠습니다.
또한 최근에 Wikimedia Commons에 이미지나 비디오를 업로드하고 있는데 한국과 관련된 위키미디어 이미지들의 분류(category)조차도 제대로 되어있지 않거나 엉망인 것도 많아서 당분간은 기사 작업은 되도록이면 자제하고 Wikimedia Commons에서만 작업을 하려고 하고 KF-21의 썸네일 이미지도 조만간 교체해야하고 할건 진짜 많은데 혼자 하기에는 여간 귀찮은게 아니네요. Gasiseda (talk) 13:05, 15 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
득템하신 거 축하 드립니다. 말한대로 70~80년대 잘 알려지지 않은 엄청난 내용들이 들어있습니다. pdf 주시면 저야 감사하지요. 전 해외 거주하는지라 그런 걸 구하기가 쉽지 않네요. 그래도 한국 서점 있으니 확보 가능한지 알아봐야할 것 같습니다. Kadrun (talk) 00:50, 16 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
