Division of Korea[edit]

I think this article does a very good job at meeting the requirements of a featured article. It seems to show the various sides and opinions in a very neutral way. It's a reasonable sized article, with an adequate level of formatting and pictures. And it's nicely informative and educational! --Rebroad 19:19, 7 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: It seems to have an essay like quality, particularly the beginning of the Historical Background section. I also noticed some copyediting mistakes. It lacks any references, and recapitulates much which (I would assume) should be in the History of Korea, History of Japan, and World War Two articles. Take it to Wikipedia:Peer review first.

Oppose no references and {{fac}} has to be in the talk page. =Nichalp «Talk»= 06:18, September 8, 2005 (UTC)

Oppose—Not well written, in particular, flawed approach to punctuation, a certain 'jerkiness' in places; paragraphing often detroys the flow. At the top, it would be good to broadly locate this issue in its historical period.
