{{#babel: en-N | spa-1 | ko-1 | zh-0 }} Currently attending college full-time while working part-time. I'll try to edit whenever life isn't happening...

High Priority

You put something here, 'cause I won't.

Medium Priority

• Speech forms sidebar template
• Jamo page

Low Priority

• Articles involving Romanization, especially the one-and-only Romanization article.
  • Romanization
  • Korean names
• Introduction to Korean - Needs some massive work and text

      http://www.koreanwikiproject.com/wiki/index.php?title=File:TYPE_FILENAME_HERE.mp3

This is the template by which MP3 files may be accessed. To fill in the "TYPE_FILENAME_HERE space, edit the page on which the desired mp3 file appears. Scroll down to that entry and copy the filename.

A Brief List of Propositions

This list is under construction and always will be. It is much like a to-do list. First is a brief introduction to a few things to which I would like to bring attention, and following below that is a list of things that may be considered for adding to the "Particular" pages named. Last appearing are a few points having to do with the formalization (and thus the amount of trust that can be given to any topics found here) of all information appearing on this wiki. Enjoy!

On the Presentation of this Wiki

As I have stated several times before, the presentation of this Wiki is still in need of much attention. I very well understand that the lacking count of active contributing members is the primary reason for this as having such leaves little to the promotion of organization and similar, useful hierarchies. Also, while I recognize the current priority of these fields as sensible, I would like to offer a strong, sectioned restructure of what already exists. Please continue reading on this below "On the Current Hangeul Presentation." Note: I'll be referring to specific examples of things about which I speak with the sort of informal name of Particulars. The most recently defined Particular is the one of which I will speak in the following articles, or, at times, the website to which I address a short review.

On the Hangeul Section

I'll detail my thoughts on this soon.

On the Current Learning Presentation

• Lack of Links : What bothers me perhaps most of all the things while navigating this Wiki is the lack of netted links, one of the prime features of a Wiki. If I am allowed, I will insert bracketed links over all entries I feel deserve them. The only thing preventing me from doing so at this moment is the lack of knowledge over the organization of this wiki (and which links already have a page for them; so as not to be redundant and recreate these pages, I wish to know this).

Particular: http://www.koreanwikiproject.com/wiki/index.php?title=Hangeul_step_6#Diphthongs

• Notice the titles of each letter written in either the red or blue boxes. It is here where links would be most useful. If formatting affects this to such a degree as to degrade the overall appearance in the current manner, I would suggest attaching such a link to the images of the letters or an otherwise easily recognized and large object.

• (Proposal rescinded) Page Expansion : Perhaps most frustrating to my eyes is the lack of page expansion to accommodate larger, widescreen monitors. I do not mean the basic frame of the site, but rather the content within it. Again referring to this article's Particular, I see the horizontally centered table of words to be a thing of annoyance in that rest of the page is left blank. To my eyes it's a gaping hole of white that needs to be filled with some sort of content, but at the same time I suspect that it's just my personality and ridiculous monitor corrupting my opinion.

On Addressing the Empty Articles

I'll detail my thoughts on this soon.

• Propose orthology orthography in pronunciation of letters
  • Check versus native speakers' opinions
  • Further revision requires revision of existing materials. See below.

On the Current Materials

• Revise "Aspiration" in http://www.koreanwikiproject.com/wiki/index.php?title=Hangeul_step_4
• IMPORTANT: Detail criticism of ㅅ and its supposed "sound change" when found next to certain jamo. (Note: http://www.koreanwikiproject.com/wiki/index.php?title=Hangeul_step_4#.E3.85.85_reminder )
• Consider rewriting all of the lessons currently existing, changing them from first-person to third-person.

Of Formalization

On Citations of Resources

I'll detail my thoughts on this soon.

For use in the construction of pages involving lists of jamo, the below organizations are here to assist editors involved in such processes.
