Your edits to Koreans in Singapore[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Koreans in Singapore, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. cab (talk) 14:39, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I see what's going on here. The old MOFAT link in the article was broken for me (it didn't show any numbers), so I went to [1] (the Overseas Korean Foundation website), which was giving the 12,656 number. Thanks for the new link. That 13,700 number also seems to be from 2007 as opposed to 2008 --- quite surprising to me that MOFAT and the OKF would publish different numbers from each other for the same year. Anyway, unfortunately, since anyone can edit Wikipedia, we have a big problem with people coming in and randomly messing around with the numbers, so I was being paranoid. Sorry for the confusion and welcome! cab (talk) 00:28, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
