This peer review discussion has been closed.
I have listed this article for peer review because I have worked on and significantly expanded the article for just under a month, and think it is just about ready to go through FAC. I would like to know anything that needs addressing, with a mind to the FA criteria.
Thanks in advance for your comments, wackywace 17:44, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
- Comment: The Continuing tensions section has a huge recentism bias. About two thirds of the contents is about the Cheonan incident. If you are doing a comparison between Korean Air Flight 858 and Cheonan incident, you need to have a source that explicitly compares the two events. If not, then the Cheonan incident should not have more weight than all other events outlined in the second paragraph of the Continuing tensions section. Jim101 (talk) 16:51, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
- I know what you mean, but there isn't much to replace it with. The idea of mentioning the Cheonan incident is to signify the relations between the two countries since KAL 858. I don't think it takes up about 2/3 of the relations section, it is about 50:50 with the discussions between the two countries. Other than the Cheonan, there hasn't really been that much serious newsworthy conflict between the two. If there are any incidents that you feel warrant mentioning, I would be very happy to add them to that section. wackywace 17:13, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
- "News worthy" is not a valid criteria to determine the weight of contents, since Wikipedia is not a news service. The approach you should take with this section is to reflect the views of current experts on the North-South relations. Trimming the Cheonan incident does not make the this article less complete, since you are just making sure everything is put into proper context in accordance with NPOV policy. To put things into context, the Cheonan incident is an episode of the larger Crab Wars and Northern Limit Line disputes between South and North, and the Crab Wars between South and North is just one aspect of a larger conflicts between South and North (nuclear tests and balloon hunting anyone?). Improvements of this section really boils down to more detailed research with academic sources that gives an comprehensive view of the North-South relations.
