Disambiguation link notification for September 20[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Crystal (given name), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Chrystal. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Koreans in Baltimore[edit]

Hi Cara. I've seen that you have been editing the article "History of the Koreans in Baltimore", I've been working on editing the article myself, so I appreciate other editors who have worked to improve the article. I noticed that you removed Sonja Sohn's image from the "Notable Korean-Americans from Baltimore" subsection of the article and replaced her image with one of David J. Kim. Is there a reason you feel that Kim is a better representation of Korean-Americans in Baltimore than Sohn? Thanks for your time. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 22:52, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Bohemian Baltimore, sorry for the late reply. I thought David J. Kim was a better representation because he's apparently full Korean, while Sohn was not. Sohn might be a better representation of a beautiful mixed-race women, so I tried to find a better representation. If you want to include her, I guess we can try to find a way to include both. Cara777 (talk) 09:49, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That's more or less the reason I expected. Being "Korean-American" or "Italian-American" (etc etc) is a matter of culture and heritage, not one of race or racial purity or skin color. You can be a mixed-race Chinese-American, mixed-race African-American, mixed-race Mexican-American, or mixed-raced white American for that matter. Arguably, culture and heritage need not even intersect: the television personality Snooki identifies as "Italian-American", despite being "fully" Chilean by birth, because she was adopted by Italian-Americans and raised within that culture. I'm not going to make a big fuss over it, but I would regard excluding Kima Greggs solely for being black to be a racist move. What is relevant is that she's Korean-American and a notable Baltimorean. Her appearance as a woman, such as her beauty, is irrelevant. Baltimore is 63% black, so many Asian-Americans and European-Americans in Baltimore are also black. Perhaps in future I will redesign the article to include both pictures, but it's not a priority for me at the moment. I just thought I'd put in my two cents for your consideration. Thanks for your time. Be well. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 10:51, 11 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, this comment is so old, a lot has changed since then. I don't even remember writing it. But yes, I agree with you. Cara777 (talk) 10:30, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 01:26, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you remove what i did David ngoviet (talk) 08:36, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You do not know anything about history you should get more education. You are the definition of humiliation. You are humiliating and untrained. As a human being, you are very disturbing, is simply wrong and it makes me wonder about your mental health. Something is wrong with your mental health David ngoviet (talk) 08:48, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Apologize[edit]

Please allow me to apologize for what I said, on day of week. My behavior was extremely inappropriate, immature, and lacked the respect you deserved. It was a disruption and distracted others. It was embarrassing, but I learned that nobody appreciated my poor behavior. In the future, I have every intention of curbing my thoughtless actions and learn to adjust my behavior befitting the environment and situation. Again, I am sorry for my actions and I hope that we can put this matter behind us. I look forward to learning from you In Wikipedia again If you have any thoughts in this, please feel free to share it with me David ngoviet (talk) 10:20, 2 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
