Overreliance on one source

edit

Vast sections of the article are paraphrasing a single book. I appreciate that it is clearly written and mostly informative, however, for such a large scale military campaign it would be nice to have a more balanced perspective. Currently, this seems like an introduction to Mr Turnbull's class on the topic.

I agree surely there are other sources out there at least about basic information TheWikiJedi (talk) 21:12, 10 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Among the 360 footnotes, there are 142 calls for Turnbull. It isn't clear if (Turnbull, Stephen, p. 040, 2008) and (Turnbull, Stephen, p. 040, 2002) are the same reference or not. Moreover, it isn't clear why page 39 was never referenced. Pldx1 (talk)

Disambig in title

edit

Question—why is the date disambiguation needed in the title? Are there other Japanese invasions of Korea? Is it because of Korea's annexation in the 20th century? If so, I think the annexation isn't really considered a military invasion. 211.43.120.242 (talk) 06:39, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Just realized; is it just trying to make clear that the article covers both invasions? 14.49.153.193 (talk) 02:21, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

what is this?

(How could you possibly die 10000? This is a fabrication used by future generations to commemorate this battle. According to contemporary Korean records, the Korean army harvested 130 Japanese heads, and the Koreans estimated that they killed five to six Japanese soldiers。) 2A02:6B6F:FBF0:DD00:698F:1C2C:EB17:596F (talk) 07:02, 22 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
