About Korean language

Hello RobbieM13 I have had conversation with people from New Zealand (kiwi) and Australia who have Chinese ancestor, but I was surprised that they over-reacted and did not wish that Korean language belong to altaic language family. That's because Chinese people have so long been ruled by people who used altaic language family. However, personal emotion and scholastic work is separate thing.

The text books used in elementary, middle, and high school in South Korea still define that Korean language is part of altaic language family, in part, because there aren't many scholars who claim that Korean language is an isolated language. If South Korea does so, English wikipedia citing books from no linguistic background and listing different information will make the site like Galapagos Islands, and give wrong information to many people.

Also, I have a vovin book that was referenced, the referred content was not found in the book. Please understand that false information was disguised as true fact, citing a book that doesn't even have particular content. YOU MUST CHECK IT. IT IS REALLY WRITTEN LIKE THAT OR NOT. You can search about the book that Vovin wrote. It's about middle mongolian. And He wrote that the gender agreement is abandon in middle mongolian language.

Looking at the false contents that contains ideology of certain ethnic group, the English wikipedia users and the management in wikipedia should be ashamed and look back on their mistake. Thank you. --218.149.108.165 (talk) 20:35, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Replied to on Korean Language talk page.

Hi Robbie,

After I reverted your edit as POV, I realized what you meant about Altaic, which is of course correct. But the wording (using both 'controversial' and 'discredited') gave the impression of POV-pushing, so I then tried "The proposal that Koreanic in turn belongs to the largely discredited Altaic language family is no longer supported by academic research." Does that adequately convey what you wanted to say?

As for Korean being an isolate or Koreanic, that is again a POV issue. Saying both makes it look like there's some controversy there, which there is not. It's an isolate today (unless you accept the e.g. Unesco classification of Jeju as a separate language), but AFAIK no-one denies that it was related to at least some of the extinct languages of the Korean peninsula. Thus it is Koreanic regardless of whether it's an isolate today. For other languages that are the last surviving members of their family, we don't use split identification in the info box, we simply give the family and usually say something in the text about it being the last surviving member. — kwami (talk) 21:32, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

Van Eeden

Thank you for your excellent work in setting up a solid foundation for Frederick Willem Can Eeden's page! I have a good bit of information on him stashed away, but I currently have exams which will keep me busy for the next month or so - afterwards, however, I'd be happy to contribute what I've learned.
