Do you have a source for this pronunciation? I don't think I have heard it before. (also 朝鮮語) Wyang (talk) 08:29, 11 April 2017 (UTC)
 * It's from Guoyu Cidian. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 08:32, 11 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Hmm, thanks. I think it's another prescribed literary reading by the MoE of Taiwan. I labelled it as "etymologically correct variant, obsolete and literary". Wyang (talk) 08:39, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

Excessive detail in the definitions
, do we actually need that much detail in the definitions? It kind of goes against WT:EL. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 21:49, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * My thoughts too. Wyang (talk) 21:57, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Agreed. I oppose those "corrections". --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 22:20, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I will not comment on LlywelynII's edits. —suzukaze (t・c) 23:38, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I think the amount of detail at the moment is OK. A bit of cleaning up might help, but it's still a useful entry IMO. ---&#62; Tooironic (talk) 07:23, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, obviously I think that this is the appropriate level of detail for these senses and an improvement on what went before. For my part, I'm rather perplexed at why three of you seem to think that removing acknowledgedly valid senses is the way to go or how you assume it's helpful to our readers. —  LlywelynII  08:14, 17 May 2017 (UTC)


 * WT:EL specifies that senses of English and non-English words are formatted differently- English entries should have a more sentence-like, explanatory style for senses, whereas non-English entries use a translation dictionary-like style for senses, using equivalents in English when possible, and for clarification when needed.
 * As far as I know, sense 1 of the current entry (朝鮮) is semantically equivalent to 🇨🇬, so it should simply be written as:
 * or at most
 * Similarly for sense 2.
 * For senses 3.1 – 3.3, they should not be merged under “Joseon”, as “Joseon” in English very rarely means things other than the ancient Korean dynasty. Compare "Joseon peninsula" (643) vs "Korean peninsula" (10,400,000).
 * Sense 3.1 should just be “ ” (with the appropriate regional label).
 * Sense 3.2 should just be “ ”, again probably with a regional label. I'm not sure the “usually...” part is correct. See.
 * Sense 3.3 should be “ ”.
