Does anyone have any information about the history of Masan (ancient->today)?

are you sure it's si, not shi?
:Yes, see McCune-Reischauer and Revised Romanization of Korean.  The use of shi for 시 is largely unique to the debased form of McCune-Reischauer which was used in South Korea for some years prior to 2000.  -- Visviva 07:44, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I would like to thank the people who have added so much information to this article.  However, the current state of this article leaves much to be desired.  Wikipedia is an encyclopedia.  It is not a travel or employment guide, nor a vehicle for promotional activity.  -- Visviva 07:44, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Wikipedia is not an expat blog.  Those who wish to add content about non-notable, non-verifiable neighborhood fixtures should find a friendlier website, such as Galbijim.  Those who actually want to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Masan should start by reviewing the tutorial and what Wikipedia is not.  -- Visviva 22:48, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for your thoughtful reply.  I think you are right that local landmarks can be included.  However, there is a key Wikipedia policy at play here, specifically Verifiability.  If a reliable source provides this information, and that source is cited in the article, the information can and should stay.  If not, unfortunately, it must go.  There is a problem here in that few (if any) sources that are considered reliable for citation on Wikipedia  deal extensively with expat life in Korea outside Seoul.  However, if you can find such a source, more power to you.  :-)  Cheers, -- Visviva 07:17, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

text: I'm afraid not even that will work, since personal websites and other self-published materials are not generally considered reliable sources.  I don't know what the situation is in Masan, but some cities have international houses or foreigner-aid groups that publish local guides; those might be acceptable as sources.  Otherwise, I would really recommend Galbijim, a vibrant and very useful wiki targeted specifically at folks like us, as the best place for this information...  Best, -- Visviva 03:34, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

text: That's about the size of it.  See Wikipedia:Verifiability for details.  This is, I fear, the downside of being "an encyclopedia anyone can edit" -- if anyone can add information, then no information can be assumed trustworthy.  Cheers, -- Visviva 04:21, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
