• @MarsandCadmium: New enough in mainspace and long enough. QPQ missing. Hook fact checks out to a peer-reviewed journal article and is interesting. Three sentences lack paragraph-ending inline citations. QPQ must be supplied and citations added to paragraphs without them to continue. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 18:58, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Italics title and misc article touchup notice

Hi,

This is mainly a heads up to @MarsandCadmium, who I think wrote most of this article. Great work btw, this is really well-written and covers an interesting topic.

Main reason for the post is because I think the title of the article should be in italics (other than the disambig). Reasoning is MOS:FOREIGNITALIC; similarly, the title of Hanbok is italicized. I may go ahead and make this change, please feel free to undo and discuss here if disagree.

I also made some minor formatting changes fyi, mainly moving Korean text into Template:Korean as per the MOS:KO. toobigtokale (talk) 17:16, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

Oh almost forgot; is the "Treaty of Yakjo" a term used in academic lit, or did you translate it yourself? It seemed strange to me as "약조 (Yakjo)" usually means "treaty" or "agreement". I would have thought it was "Treaty of Chŏngsa" or "Chŏngsa Treaty", but those terms don't seem to be used in academic lit at all. I've gone ahead and changed it; please undo if disagree toobigtokale (talk) 17:20, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
