Talk:Park (Korean surname)

message: Hi, I'm not going to change this...I've only been studying 한국어 for a year or so.  But if my history is correct, 한글 (Hangeul, the alphabet mentioned) didn't come around until King Sejong (1397-1450) was around, as he invented it.  So this part of the entry doesn't make sense:
Since the Korean verb for "to shine" or "to be bright" is spelled B-A-R-G in hangeul characters, his last name became Bak.
I guess I'm not seeing how his name could have come around 1300 years before the characters which produced his name.  But as I said, I'm not going to change this because I don't know the history that well.  Can someone with more Korean history experience fix this?
감사합니다!

thread_title:  Origin of the name? 

message: So  the entry for Park(Korean name)   redirects to  Park (name).
but the talk page for Park(name)  redirects to  Park(Korean name).
Something wrong there !
Also  there are people with the family name "Park" who are not Koreans or
of Korean descent or connected with Korea in any way.Eregli bob (talk) 17:02, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed. It's also an unrelated Scottish surname. I have changed the general redirects to point to the disambiguation page. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 22:41, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mixed up redirects ? 

message: I cleaned it up a bit with sources. The midsection though needs references (Position in society). And I think the notable people should be split into the separate article, similarly to List of people with the Korean family name Kim, there are simply too many Parks to be included here in the main article.

message: At the end of the first paragraph it says Park is pronounced piáo in Standard Chinese, and in the editing source there is a note which says piáo is the only pronunciation. However, on MoeDict (online Chinese dictionary by the Department of Education of Taiwan), it says piáo; also pr. pú. Shouldn't we add also pú in Taiwan? Obonggi (talk) 23:53, 9 December 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Pronunciation in Mandarin 

message: It should be made clear right at the beginning that the English transcription Park for the name that reads in reality Pak or Bak is a convention to avoid mispronunciation as of Pack or Back.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:E9:7BC1:3C00:5016:D01D:E8ED:2B68 (talk) 17:51, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  intruding r 

message: Do we have stance on whether or not names should have links if it just redirects to said person's group's page when said group is already linked at the description of said person?
I say remove all such links but didn't want to start removing them if theres already been a discussion or rules/guidelines exist for it.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: What's going on with this Family Lineage section? It seems to link to the Chinese Wikipedia, has very little context to explain it, and is completely untransliterated into Roman characters.
I suspect this section was lifted wholesale from the Chinese version of Wikipedia. I'm not sure it belongs here.RobertM525 (talk) 20:33, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
