Thank you for your comment.

[edit] Odd article

How about moving the images to a Wikimedia Commons gallery (and perhaps making a wikibook from the text)? Wikipeditor 16:57, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your interest in this page, and your suggestion about Wikimedia Commons. I will consider, thanks.

[edit] MVCOL Reply to Cleanup:

I've begun the "cleanup" on this article...citing specific references for supporting documentation.

[edit] MVCOL Comment:

This page is much more than just a "Gallery". It's a collection of unique pieces of art (as is the case of all art). However, they well represent the general categories of Korean pottery styles. Exposure to the visual presentation here is important to any serious student of Asian arts. One picture is truly worth a thousand words. Without photographs we would handicap our Wikipedia generation. I continue to provide increased documentation and references to validate information contained here. I consider your interest in this page important, and take your comments seriously.


[edit] Collection quality???

Many of the pieces in this collection are blatantly mediocre. In addition the whole collection is termed "pottery" which is an absurdity. Iwanafish 1/6/07


[edit] Why Is This Article Still Here?

This collection is a disgrace. Let us guess. It was gatherered by someone who spent a year in Korea and bought bargain art junk. An object can be a thousand years old and still be a piece of junk. Most of this collection is junk.--Iwanafish 05:42, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
