Article I chose

[edit]

"Liancourt Rocks"

Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?

[edit]

Yes, everything in the article is relevant to its topic, and nothing distracted me.

Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? 

[edit]

It is neutral. Both Japanese and Korean names of the islets are redirected to this article, which implies it respect both of them. Also, when someone initiated discussion about changing the title of the article, contributors agreed to keep the neutral name. Even in Japanese version, editors were against a modification solely based on the claim made by the Japanese government.

[edit]

Some of the links are broken, especially ones to the Korean government websites.

Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?

[edit]

The section about the territorial conflict between Japan and South Korea does not use proper citations.

The article uses a lot of Korean sources and some non-Asian ones but few Japanese ones. Most non-Asian sources look neutral. The sources published by the Japanese government are biased because they makes the claim that Takeshima (Japanese name for Liancourt Rocks) is under Japanese sovereignty, but the editors do not use them in the section that has controversy. I cannot judge articles written in Korean.

Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?

[edit]

Information about climate and ecology is out of date because it comes from sources made more than ten years ago. The section about the history can be added because the Japanese version has more useful sources and information. There is another article about the territorial conflict between Japan and Korea, and it covers history of the rocks.

Check out the Talk page of the article. What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?

[edit]

As I mentioned in the third answer, the contributors talked about the name of the article. A Korean person claimed that the article should be named Dokdo (Korean name for Liancourt Rocks) because Korea has stronger evidence. However, others evaluated the evidence provided by that person and concluded it was biased. Finally, they reached an agreement to use Liancourt Rocks as the title of the article.

How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?

[edit]

How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class (if we have)? What is your overall impression of the article?

[edit]

While students may express mere opinions based on their feelings, Wikipedia tries to be objective by using only facts confirmed by reliable sources; most of the statements are supported by outside sources. I felt Wikipedia is also different from research papers I have written in college because it does not intend to make any claims though I have been taught research papers must be argumentative. I think those characteristics makes Wikipedia a fact-based website.

Wiki Project Draft - Koreans in Japan

[edit]

History

[edit]

Overview (new section)

[edit]

The modern flow of Koreans to Japan started with the Japan-Korea Treaty of 1876 and increased dramatically since 1920. During World War II, … South Korean government.

The statistics regarding … arrived in Japan.

Origin Before World War II (rename the section)

[edit]

After the conclusion of the Japan-Korea Treaty of 1876, Korean students and asylum seekers started to come to Japan, including Bak Yeonghyo, Kim Ok-gyun, and Song Byeong-jun. There were about 800 Koreans living in Japan before Japan annexed Korea.[1] In 1910, as the result of … Empire of Japan.

In the 1920s, the demand for labor in Japan was high while Koreans had some difficulty in finding jobs in the Korean Peninsula. This coincidence of interests boosted the migration to Japan. A majority of the immigrants consisted of farmers from the southern part of Korea.[2] The number of Koreans in Japan in 1930 was more than ten times greater than that of 1920 reaching 419,000.[1] However, the jobs they could get on the mainland of Japan were mainly related to physical labor due to their poor education, and they worked with minority people subject to discrimination such as Burakumin.[2]

Before World War II, the Japanese Government tried to reduce the number of immigrating Koreans because it caused unemployment in the mainland of Japan. Therefore, the Japanese government devoted resources to the Korean Peninsula.[3]

During World War II

[edit]

In 1939, labor shortages ... coercion or deception. In 1939, the Japanese government introduced the National Mobilization Law and conscripted Koreans to deal with labor shortages due to World War II.[4]

After World War II (new section)

[edit]

After World War II, Koreans entered Japan illegally due to an unstable political situation and economic hardship in the Korean Peninsula. For example, 20,000 Koreans fled from Jeju Island after the Jeju uprising in 1948.[5] The Yeosu-Suncheon rebellion also increased the illegal immigration to Japan.[6] It is said that 90 % of illegal immigrants were Koreans between 1946-1949.[7] During the Korean War, Korean immigrants came to Japan to avoid torture and dictatorship by the Korean government.[8] People who left Korea because of its economy include Masayoshi Son’s family and Han Chang-u.[9][10]

Fishers and brokers helped immigrants enter Japan through Tsushima Island.[11][12] In the 1950s, Japan Coast Guard secured the border with Korea, but it was hard to capture illegal immigrants because they were armed while Japan Coast Guard was not due to the status as a defeated country of World War II. At that period, only one-fifth of the immigrants were arrested.[13]

The Japanese government also struggled over debts of imported foods, part of which were used to feed Zainichi Koreans, and an increasing number of criminal cases involving Koreans. In Official Correspondence of 1949, Shigeru Yoshida, the prime minister of Japan, proposed the deportation of all Zainichi Koreans to Douglas MacArthur and said the Japanese government would pay all of the cost. Yoshida claimed that it was unfair for Japan to purchase food for illegal Zainichi Koreans most of whom did not contribute to the Japanese economy and that many of Koreans committed political crimes cooperating with communists.[14]

Newcomers

[edit]

South Korea allowed its students to study abroad freely in 1980, and people older than forty-four to travel abroad in 1987.[15][16] One year after the Seoul Olympics, traveling abroad was liberalized.[16] When Expo 2005 was held, the Japanese government had a visa waiver program with South Korea for a limited period under the condition that the visitor's purpose was sightseeing or business, and later extended it permanently.[17] Oldcomers tend to exclude newcomers from existing Korean organizations, especially mindan, so newcomers created a new one called the Association of South Korean Residents in Japan.[18][19]

Division between Chongryon and Mindan Korean Organization in Japan – Chongryon and Mindan (move to new section)

[edit]

Integration into Japanese Society

[edit]

Registration of residents

[edit]

Japan used to ... attire of their homelands. After Zainichi Koreans lost Japanese nationality, the Immigration Control Act of 1951 and the Alien Registration Law of 1952 required them to be fingerprinted and to carry a certificate of registration as other foreigners did. The Permanent Residents by Accord of 1965 allowed Zainichi Koreans who had lived in Japan since the colonial period to apply for permanent residency, but their descendants could not. Twenty-six years later, the Japanese Diet passed the Special Law on Immigration Control and categorized Zainichi Koreans who have lived without any gap since the end of World War II or before and their lineal descendants as Special Permanent Residents.[1] The fingerprint requirement for Zainichi Koreans was terminated by 1993.[2]

Right to vote and government employment

[edit]

Over the decades, ... "Japanese nationals."

There had been a discussion about Zainichi South Koreans’ right to vote in South Korea. Since Special Permanent Residents are exempted from military service and taxes, the South Korean government was reluctant to give them the right to vote, arguing they did not register as residents though it thought most people agree on granting the right to vote to short-stay South Korean travelers. On the other hand, Zainichi South Koreans claimed that they should be granted it because the Constitution of South Korea guarantees anyone having South Korean nationality the right to vote.[20] In 2007, the Constitutional Court of Korea concluded all South Korean nationals have the right to vote in South Korea even though they are permanent residents of other countries.[21][22]

Zainichi North Koreans are allowed to vote and eligible for election in North Korea if they are 17 years old or older.[23]

There have also ... permanent foreign residents.

Korean school

[edit]

Another issue is ... graduates to apply directly.

Due to issues described above, the number of students at Korean schools run by Chongryon has declined by 67%, and many of the children of Zainichi Koreans choose to go to orthodox Japanese schools.[24]

Zainichi industry (new section)

[edit]

It is said that Zainichi Koreans mainly engage in pachinko, restaurants, construction, and civil engineering.[25] Discrimination against Zainichi Koreans in hiring pushed them into so-called 3Ds (dirty, dangerous, and demeaning) industries.[26] Annual sales of pachinko had been about 30 trillion yen since 1993, and Zainichi Koreans and Chongryon accounted for 90% of them.[27] However, the pachinko industry is shrinking because the Japanese government imposed stricter regulations. The number of pachinko parlors decreased by 9.5% between 2012 and 2016 when the number of people who enjoy pachinko dropped to less than 9.4 million.[28]

Zainichi Koreans have developed yakiniku restaurants[2]. The honorary president of All Japan “Yakiniku” Association is Tae Do Park (Tsumei: Taido Arai).[29][30]

In the 1970s, newcomers started to enter the precious metal industry. Currently, 70% of precious metal products are made by certified Zainichi Koreans.[31]

More than a few Zainichi Koreans are part of the gang. A former member of Sumiyoshi-kai estimates there are a few hundred Korean yakuza and that some of them are bosses of branches. These days, however, Korean gangs tend to go to China and Southeast Asia because these countries are unsafe, prices are low there, and the gang can easily earn money compared to Japan.[32]

Response to Deji's review

[edit]

I fixed some grammatical issues you pointed out. Thank you.

All of your "explain," "describe" questions are answered by linking to other wikipedia articles. If any of them is missed, please let me know.

History

[edit]

Before WWII

[edit]

Korans could not find jobs in Korea, so they migrated to the mainland of Japan. They found jobs there, but those jobs were mainly physical labor. To make this clear, I added a little bit, so does this work?

After WWII

[edit]

An unstable political situation is in the Korean Peninsula.

The Japanese government also struggled over 1) debts of imported foods, part of which were used to feed Zainichi Koreans, and 2) an increasing number of criminal cases involving Koreans. What is not clear?

Integration into Japanese Society

[edit]

Korean school

[edit]

The original article discusses two issues; one is funding, and the other is an examination called the High School Equivalency Test. The paragraph I wrote will be inserted after existing ones. Therefore, "issues described above" should be clear.
