Talk:Proto–Three Kingdoms period

Inconsistent dates

There is a serious problem here. The text says, "Generally considered the first three centuries of the Common Era,...," whereas the time-line used here and generally in Korean history articles says

Proto-Three Kingdoms: 108–57 BC

Buyeo, Okjeo, Dongye
Samhan: Ma, Byeon, Jin

Recent page move

I think the article should not have been moved. As "proto-" is a prefix and not an independent word, shouldn't it be hyphnated rather than endashed per WP:ENDASH? It says "An en dash is not used ... with an element that lacks lexical independence (the prefix Sino- in Sino-Japanese trade)". --Kusunose 00:43, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Please read the rest of ENDASH. A prefix to an open compound (but not a hyphenated compound) is dashed, as in "post–World War II". — kwami (talk) 02:33, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Sorry I missed that part. Thank you for the explanation. --Kusunose 02:48, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Deor is quite correct, so it seems the proposer just did not read MOS:ENDASH carefully enough. Andrewa (talk) 02:38, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

Proto–Three Kingdoms of Korea → Proto-Three Kingdoms of Korea – 'Proto-' is a prefix. You do not use an en dash here. 14.200.68.118 (talk) 17:43, 11 May 2014 (UTC) 14.200.68.118 (talk) 17:43, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

• Oppose. MOS:ENDASH says that an en dash is used "instead of a hyphen, when applying a prefix (but not a suffix) to a compound that includes a space". In this case, the prefix proto- is being applied to the compound "Three Kingdoms", not just to three. The situation is exactly parallel to the "pre–World War II" example given in the MOS.

Date range?

Can we make the date range for this period more obvious in the lead? toobigtokale (talk) 01:38, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
