Hometown Village
Hometown Village

Created by Toobigtokale (talk). Self-nominated at 02:48, 14 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Hometown Village; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

  • The article was created on January 14 and nominated on the same day. Its length is 5,200 characters, which is well over the requirement. The hook is supported by reliable sources and is reasonably interesting. Good to go. --Moscow Connection (talk) 04:11, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I searched for Russian-related nominations and older nominations, and found just that! As a side note, I'm a little concerned whether Hometown Village have enough information for a standalone article outside of Sakhalin Koreans. But, as I see it, it would be difficult to merge the village with Sakhalin Koreans, and thus this article is justified. —LastJabberwocky (Rrarr) 13:01, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

copyvios almost doesn't pick up anything, as most of the sources are Korean. —LastJabberwocky (Rrarr) 13:01, 22 July 2025 (UTC) checkY[reply]

Prose

Iron Curtain can be turned into Asia-specific term I have just learned, bamboo curtain.

I think you should rephrase this pretty strong statement: "they were elderly and wished to die in their homeland" --> "...and, according to Viktoriya Bya (editor of Sakhalin's Korean-language newspaper), they wanted to go to their homeland to die."

"The enclave is the subject of Episode 497 of the podcast 99% Invisible." This doesn't seem well-placed in the "description" section. As the podcast is already mentioned as a reference, I think we can remove this sentence.
