My name is Aan Ji Hye. I am from Republic of Korea and a member of VANK(Voluntary Agency Network of Korea). VANK is a non-governmental organization and also a voluntary organization. VANK consists of elementary, middle and high school students who provide correct information about Korea to international textbook publishing companies and publishers.

Recently I visited Wikipepia, and was quite surprised to find your aritcle of

Korea's Dokdo as Japan's takehima.

Such an error on such a well-known website such as yours comes as a surprise since we regard you as one of the world's best.

Dokdo is not just a small rock islands. Dokdo is a very long time ago and we have never once Korea was not the land. The old history of Korea in Korea to present historical tendencies in how we police always islets are guarded, and there are public with Korea address resides.

Once more I have affection for Dokdo and once again encrypted information about the islets would be appreciated.

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.32.66.84 (talk) 11:50, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The island of Takeshima in Kagoshima Prefecture in this article is a completely different island than Takeshima/Dokdo, which is found in the English Wikipedia under the title Liancourt Rocks. There are several islands in Japan named "Takeshima". Please take the time to look at a map to see where Dokdo is actually located, compared with the island of Takeshima (Kagoshima). --MChew (talk) 14:38, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
