@117.19.148.137: Hi - Whats the rationale for your deletion of the 'see also' section?
Expanding 'First Battle of Seoul' stub
editI really appreciated the edits made by some users regarding my expansion of the Stub. It allowed me to grasp a firmer understanding of the Wikipedia writing criteria. I have revised and researched more in-depth on the topic and, subsequently, added more sections. I believe the sections are more relevant and stay relevant to the topic. I am open to any feedback, and edits, as the aim is to make the stub as notable as possible. Thanks. SydneyStudent619 (talk) 01:58, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
- SydneyStudent619 everything that you've added to the background would be better placed in Operation Pokpoong which describes the overall North Korean invasion plan. This page should stay focussed on the actual battle for Seoul. regards Mztourist (talk) 04:58, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
- SydneyStudent619 further to my earlier message above, I have moved most of what you added into this page over into Operation Pokpoong which describes the overall North Korean invasion and so is the most appropriate place for details of the planning and controversey over the origins of the battle. If you have detail to add about the actual fighting for Seoul you can add it here, but otherwise information about the overall invasion should go onto Operation Pokpoong. You need to provide page numbers for each book that you use as references and accessdates for each website that you use. You also need to link as much as possible for example most of the cities and military units have their own pages which can be linked, but only link once on a page. I note that you refer to a number of South Korean towns and areas that I have never heard of such as Kaizin, Sinyuri, Korio, Urutsyn, Tongducheb, Bunsan, Siunseen and Tubuiri, please check the spellings and link as necessary.

editI feel that "North Korean victory" (or even "DPRK victory") would be a more suitable term than "Communist Victory" as:
1. North Korea was the only country invading, not a group of Communist-aligned nations that could potentially go under the umbrella of a "Communist victory"
2. it would be in-line with the Second and Third Battle of Seoul's articles, which say "United Nations victory" and "Chinese/DPRK victory" respectively Zolax9 (talk) 01:38, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
