The Korean Barnstar

For your thorough contributions to articles on Sejong the Great and Hangul. Thank you for your work! Fbgpwns5277 (talk) 01:54, 23 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you 🙂 and thank you as well for your work! Important coverage that's often not even available in English academic works. grapesurgeon (talk) 04:24, 24 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

For reviewing MMTG (YouTube series). The author removed Fanpov template - can you check if the issue is resolved? _{Piotrus at Hanyang| reply here} 05:54, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's better but still FANPOV language; maybe not enough to be worthy of template grapesurgeon (talk) 16:03, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for double checking _{Piotrus at Hanyang| reply here} 08:27, 29 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Kkongkkong

On 30 November 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Kkongkkong, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a viral stray cat was, years later, found and adopted by the same journalist who had inadvertently turned her into a meme? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Kkongkkong. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Kkongkkong), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to nominate it.

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to living or recently deceased subjects of biographical content on Wikipedia articles, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia's norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practices;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures, you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
