User talk:KYPark

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello KYPark, I'm not a wikipedian but I've read your input for the Huns talk page. I also think there are such type of connections you mention. My email is pedersen@visi.com. Could you give me your email? Best regards, Tom Pedersen, St. Paul, MN USA

[edit] Welcome!

Hello, KYPark, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language
Happy editing!

[edit] Nietzsche

Hey, I'm not trying to dismiss your addition to the Nietzsche article. It can always be recovered in the history. I just think it would go better in another article. Perhaps it's time for a "Philosophy of Nietzsche" or "Nietzsche's Philosophy" article. This material might go well there. My point is simply that this article is a biography, and is already getting kinda big. No offense meant, and welcome to Wikipedia. If you would like to pilot a new article, please do. Or if you want, we can put your additions up for a vote in the discussion. --DanielCD 15:05, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)

To make your ID blue, just save something on your user page. Just click the user page tab at the top of this page and save something there. --DanielCD 13:55, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Welby

I've removed the (slightly pointed) description of the link; the article is derived from that page (and its published version) together with one or twwo other sources. I have permission to use the linked article here, but preferred to rewrite it. If you're interested in adding more, or rewriting it further, that would be very welcome.

[edit] 안영하새요

최승함니다. 한국말 못해도라도, 국어으로 인사 하고 시퍼습니다. 저는 영국애 살고이습니다 한국 사람이랑 켜런해습니다. 군이 article 일고, 너무 행벅햇어요 저이 초산 이야기 알고잇는 한국 사람 잇기대무내. 저는여기소 지금 만히 스고 실습니다. 헉시 email 이슴연 저한태 message 번해주새요. Hvalimir 00:11, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

I am very glad to correct your Korean writing as follows:

안녕하세요

죄송합니다. 한국말 못하더라도, 국어로 인사하고 싶었습니다. 저는 영국에 살고있습니다. 한국 사람이랑 결혼했습니다. 군이 article 읽고, 너무 행복했어요. 저희 조선 이야기 알고 있는 한국 사람 있기 때문에. 저는 여기서 지금 많이 쓰고 싶습니다. 혹시 email 있으면 저한테 message 전해주세요.

In the near future I will let you know my email address. Until then we will communicate formally, through wiki. By the way what do you mean by "-mir" of your name? It means "dragon" in Old Korean, which is likely akin to "mur" (water). I wonder if you are English or what?

Thank you very much for the corrections. Actually, 실다 is the effect I was wanting to convey not 싶다, but my spelling is attrocious. I don't mind Korean folk reading, but otherwise don't want to broadcast my conversations over the internet. I wonder if you could help me choose a name for my half "Amazon" daughter. A word like Noeul is a HanGeul word and meaning glow at sunrise/sunset has a fundamental meaning of light which I feel corresponds to Arabic Noor and Aramaic Nahor and even Irish Nora and Hurrian Nihiri all with the fundamental meanings of light. This word also works nicely as a name in Korea asd well as in English speaking countries (sounds like Noel). But I don't want to use this word, and I wonder if you could help me find other words which work nicely with this sort of connections & sound. Especially Hebrew/Aramaic/Hurrian conncections to Korean. Please feel free to send me an email through the wiki email service. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. P.S. Mir means world-peace in old slavonic, Hval means praise, but it is also the name the Yeoptal used for themselves in Korean pronunciation.Hvalimir 21:16, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Contexualism category

Hi, you recently added lots of articles to the "contexualism" category. There's no article on "Contexualism" or any other sources to explain what this category is, or otherwise make this category useful. Can you supply reliable sources to support the inclusion of these articles in this category? Pete.Hurd 14:50, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your concern. But you missed one of two t's in Contextualism. --gybag 15:01, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
Hmmm, so I did, but I really don't see why for example: Hypertext, World Wide Web, Dynamical system, Nature versus nurture and David Bohm (to mention just a few) fall into this category, it seems kinda senseless. Pete.Hurd 18:16, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
Could you comment on Category talk:Contextualism about what the idea behind the category is, please? -- Rbellin|Talk 18:41, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
Sooner or later I will reply to both of you on Category talk:Contextualism. --gybag 00:10, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the reply. I've nominated this category for deletion as original research; see Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2007 July 9#Category:Contextualism. -- Rbellin|Talk 15:37, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cross-reference

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Cross-reference, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Category:Cognitive science literature

I doubt I would be the only one who considers putting The Selfish Gene in this category a bit of a stretch. It isn't exactly a book on cognitive science, at least no more than it is a book on biogeography or English politics. I suspect some of the other articles in that category are a similar stretch too... Richard001 (talk) 05:40, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Actually I think I know what you're getting at here - the meme thing. It still isn't exactly a cognitive science book, just one that touches on cognitive science, but I'll leave it to your discretion as this isn't really my "territory". Richard001 (talk) 05:46, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Your use page

Hi, according to the Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not policy and the Wikipedia:User page guideline, extensive content which is not closely related to editing Wikipedia is not allowed on user pages. Kindly take this into account and edit your user page accordingly, please. Thank you. --Kjoonlee 11:06, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

I see you have many user subpages Special:PrefixIndex/User:KYPark, but their organization gives me the impression the information is for your personal use rather than for other people at Wikipedia... --Kjoonlee 11:12, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
Hi, my subpages so far are mostly objective references or metadata that would help anyone edit Wikipedia. So I wonder why you seem to take them for my improper personal use. Of course, no one but myself would edit my pages, which may be inevitably biased by the bound of my knowledge and information. But I'm afraid everyone is biased. My subpages aim for an annotated bibliography to be accessed and edited with an exceptional ease. This sample page may show you how a reference is related to many other works or articles, causally or accidentally. Wikipedia may rather miss this evolutionary way of knowledge organization. --KYPark (talk) 13:34, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
Objectiveness is irrelevant and for the last three years you have made no effort to make those pages accessible to other users. --Kjoonlee 00:52, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
I don't understand what you mean by your comment "Objectiveness is irrelevant." It's literally true that "for the last three years [I] have made no [such] effort." But "those pages" are just a week or so old, under construction! Please wait some time for their maturity enough for other users. --KYPark (talk) 01:17, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

You are using Wikipedia as a hosting space for your materials. If you think your materials are helpful to others, you should make that very clear on your own pages. How else can they be justified to stay?

I thought your subpages were very old as well, but it looks like that was a wrong impression. However, your user page is about three years old and it has had no edits from other people AFAICT. From looking at the Robbert Russell (sp?) page I see there's not much common between your page and the Wikipedia article. Thus this leads me to believe that you aren't using the pages to help you in editing Wikipedia either... If it doesn't help you, how can the pages be helpful to anyone else..? --Kjoonlee 14:14, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

3rd reply (sorry to start leftmost)

``You are using Wikipedia as a hosting space for your materials.``

This opening passage is supposed to be your conclusion, which appears rather down side up, authoritatively or dictatively, I fear, while I'm still far from being convinced as such.

``If you think your materials are helpful to others, you should make that very clear on your own pages. How else can they be justified to stay?``

To "make that very clear," I am considering the assignment of my pages to a Category, say, the existing Category:1999 or a new Category:1999 bibliography for User:KYPark/1999, a link to which may also be added to See also in the page 1999. Again, my subpages are under construction. Sooner or later, a bot could get such Category and See also jobs done easily in a flash. Please kindly advise me what else I could or should do.

``I thought your subpages were very old as well, but it looks like that was a wrong impression.``

Yeah, you've got a wrong impression indeed!

``However, your user page is about three years old and it has had no edits from other people AFAICT.``

First of all, let me know what AFAICT is? You may be kind enough to make it a hyperlink, if possible. Next, does any user page normally receive "edits from other people"? Then it quite surprises me. Even more surprisingly, should I be responsible or blamed for receiving no such edits?

``From looking at the Robbert Russell (sp?) page I see there's not much common between your page and the Wikipedia article.``

"Robbert Russell" is supposed to be Peter Russell, but what is the next "(sp?)"? Anyway, this subpage by person is a sample complement to the others by year. The former is more consistent and perhaps easier to edit, as well as personal, while the latter is more chronic and easier to move from year to year. Most importantly, all these subpages of mine may help complement and supplement Wikipedia articles, avoiding unnecessary duplication or redundancy as far as possible. Naturally, my subpage *Peter Russell is far informative in a way beyond the state of the article Peter Russell. I wonder if you insist that I have gone too far away, unnecessarily.

``Thus this leads me to believe that you aren't using the pages to help you in editing Wikipedia either... If it doesn't help you, how can the pages be helpful to anyone else..?``

Thus this leads me to believe that you aren't using the pages to help you in editing Wikipedia either -- your argument against them. --KYPark (talk) 01:51, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
