[edit] Move?

somewhat related to Talk:Taekyon, any objections to moving this article to Subak, to be consistent with the revised romanization of wikipedia korean naming convention? Appleby 20:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] taekkyeon + yusool = soobak

It has always been my understanding that the subak curriculum consisted of more than just kicking. And that it wasn't until approx. the early time of the Joseon (chosun) dynasty that the art split up in a kicking part (taekkyeon) and a grappling, joint manipulation art (yusool), of which the latter later went the way of the dodo.

This is what Robert Young tells us in an article he wrote for the Asian Journal of MA. (which you will be able do download from http://www.taekkyon.de/html/en/download.html

I see. I read your post. I will change all articles accordingly.68.148.165.213 05:57, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Wait, what is yusool? I couldn't find it.68.148.165.213 06:04, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Subak vs. Soobak

Why does Subak refer to Soobak instead of the other way around? Both in Revised as in McCune the romanization is Subak. Kbarends 17:21, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

If that is true, you may move it at your leisure - I'm pretty sure the guidelines for Korean-related articles mandate the use of Revised romanization. Bradford44 17:58, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

WP:MOS-KO requires that non-loanwords be romanized using Revised Romanization. Since most people have never heard of subak, and wouldn't know what it is, it is not a loanword (unlike judo and taekwondo, which are loanwords). Using revised romanization, "수박" should be romanized as "subak". Therefore, the page should be moved to Subak. I would have done it without making a formal request, but an admin is needed to move it.
